Talent Swallowing Hero

“I…am ready.”

Since there was no real death for the Undead Goliath, Leo didn’t think much before ordering it to enter the tower.

<That’s the spirit. You are really a descendent of a true Goliath who doesn’t back down just because of the death>

The remnant spirit of the Blood Goliath was satisfied with Gredor’s reply and opened the doors to the huge tower.

…..

The first hall of the first floor in the Goliath Tower,

When the undead goliath entered the Goliath Tower, he saw a grey-skinned goliath with a single horn on its head.

<Gredor, you must defeat the Rank 9 Devil Goliath to clear this hall. Let’s begin the fight>

Soon, the Blood Goliath’s remnant spirit appeared and gave him the instructions before disappearing from the tower.

‘Aargh’

Seeing a participant appear in his hall, the Devil Goliath rushed towards the Undead Goliath to kill him.

‘Punch’_.

However, the Undead Goliath was calm and composed as he waited for the Devil Goliath to come close to him before throwing a simple punch.

‘Thud’

Just one punch from the Undead Goliath and the Devil Goliath fell to the ground.

Since the Undead Goliath was a peak rank 9 monster hero and even partially awakened his bloodline, it was not an issue for the Undead Goliath to take care of the Devil Goliath, who only had the strength of a newly ascended rank 9.

<Congratulations for completing the first hall with a single punch>

Soon, the rank 9 Devil Goliath’s body turned into tiny light dots before the remnant spirit appeared from them and congratulated the Undead Goliath.

<For completing the second hall, you need to defeat two rank 9 Devil Goliaths>

‘Swoosh’

Soon, the Undead Goliath teleported to the next hall, where two rank 9 Devil Goliaths rushed at him without wasting time.

“Two…rank 9…Devil…Goliaths.”

The Undead Goliath muttered the number of his opponents before using his two hands to punch them to the ground.

It only took a single punch per a rank 9 Devil Goliath to kill them and clear the hall.

In the third hall of the first floor, Undead Goliath defeated four rank 9 Devil Goliaths; in the fourth hall, there were eight rank 9 Devil Goliaths.

With the clearance of each hall, the number of rank 9 Devil Goliaths in the hall doubled.

By the time the Undead Goliath reached the ninth hall, there were 256 rank 9 Devil Goliaths who were looking at the Undead Goliath with furious eyes.

<Ohoh….you must have a lot of battle experience in the outside world to be able to kill these rank 9 Devil Goliaths in a single punch. More importantly, you are calm and composed even when a huge number of them surrounds you>

However, those 256 rank 9 Devil Goliaths didn’t rush at the Undead Goliath; instead, they were waiting for the remnant spirit to disappear.

As for the remnant spirit of the Blood Devil Goliath, he was talking to the Undead Goliath.

Every time the Undead Goliath cleared a hall, the remnant spirit was surprised at the Undead Goliath’s battle prowess and liked him more and more for his calm and composed look.

<You must be tired. Why don’t you take a few minutes’ break before challenging this ninth hall?>

Since the Blood Devil Goliath liked the Undead Goliath more and more, he didn’t want the Undead Goliath to die on the first floor because there were a total of 256 rank 9 Devil Cultivators.

“Me….wants….to….fight.”

However, the Undead Goliath didn’t intend to take a break because, according to the Blood Devil Goliath, the moment he took the break, the Undead Goliath’s clearance rating would drop, resulting in a decrease in his reward.

‘Since Gredor has yet to use any of his skills, he is still full of energy. It’s better to take a break after the completion of the floor.’

Leo, who was guiding the Undead Goliath, silently thought in his head and ordered the Undead Goliath to continue fighting without taking any breaks.

That’s right! The Undead Goliath didn’t even use his basic skill and used only normal punches.

The Undead Goliath was not a normal Ancient Goliath; instead, he was the Ancient Goliath King and had the strength of peak rank 9.

Hence, he could kill the normal rank 9 Devil Goliaths with a single punch.

<Since that’s what you want, I won’t stop you>

After saying those words, the Blood Devil Goliath disappeared from the hall, and the 256 rank 9 Devil Goliaths started rushing towards him.

‘You can take care of them without using any of your skills, right?’

Leo didn’t want the Undead Goliath to use his skills yet because using skills would consume a lot of energy, and Leo wanted his Undead Goliath to clear the second floor also.

Therefore, he was more focused on clearing the floors with normal moves; instead of skills.

Of course, if the Undead Goliath was not confident in achieving such a feat, Leo didn’t mind the Undead Goliath using one or two of his skills to clear the floor.

‘I…will….use….one….skill….only…once.’

[Enchanced Arms]

As soon as the Undead Goliath finished his words, his two long arms bulged and became three times the original size of his arms.

“Thud”

He bashed on the ground, which created huge cracks on the floor, making the rushing rank 9 Devil Goliaths lose their balance.

Since each one of the Devil Goliath was at least five meters in height, they easily lost balance, fell to the ground, and were close to each other, making it difficult to stand up from the ground so soon.

‘Swoosh’

After creating an opportunity for himself, the Undead Goliath didn’t waste any time and rushed into the large group and punched the Devil Goliaths in the ground with his bulged arms.

Even without skill, the Undead Goliath could kill them in a single punch. Now, his punch power was three times more than his usual punch power.

Therefore with each punch, the Undead Goliath easily killed them and created more and more cracks on the ground.

‘Cleared’

After killing all the Devil Goliaths, the Undead Goliath informed Leo of his achievement.

‘Excellent.’

Leo didn’t give the sentence to the Ancient Goliath King for nothing. It was the leader of a small portion of uncleared land. In that uncleared land, the Ancient Goliath King was the only rank 9 monster who became one of the kings of the uncleared land.

Hence, he knew what the Ancient Goliath King was capable of and had great expectations from him.

‘Now, there is only one hall left. You can easily clear it with your rich battle experience.’

Leo knew he didn’t have to guide the Ancient Goliath King regarding the fights. So, he didn’t bother to say what the Undead Goliath had to do during the fight as he left it to the Undead Goliath himself.

<You surprise me again and again with your battle prowess. The young goliaths of my Devil Goliaths could have never considered using the terrain to their advantage.>

The remnant spirit was excited and continued,

<As long as you clear this hall, I will give you a good reward>

‘Swoosh’

Just as he finished his words, the Undead Goliath teleported to a new hall where 512 rank 9 Devil Goliaths were waiting for him in the distance, and a peak rank 9 Devil Goliath was standing in the front; obviously, it was the leader of the group.
