Chapter 79 Easter Egg

Isaac walked through the expanse of desert. His tracks quickly disappeared after being swept away by the wind. He covered his face with a black cloth to withstand the strong gusts of wind that carried the sand material. One hand held a cloth, while the other held a gun.

In the midst of his journey to find the hidden secrets in this challenge, he heard a hiss.

He let out a long sigh that came out of his mouth.

'They keep popping up non-stop.'

Swooosh!

A large snake with skin like a crocodile emerged from under the sand. Isaac quickly turned around and shot the snake. The gunshot sounded repeatedly and the 'mana' bullets shot out.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

The snake skin was quite hard, and the mana bullet shot was not strong enough to penetrate it. The monster hissed again while sticking out its tongue.

<Information>

[Name : N/A]

[Race : Basilisk]

[Type : Beast]

[Class : C ]

[Level : 75 ]

Splat!

The snake monster squirted green liquid. Isaac quickly dodged it. The sand instantly melted when it was hit by the basilisk venom.

Isaac sent another mana shot, but the basilisk plunged back into the sea of ??sand.

'Tch, how troublesome.'

Isaac stayed still. He sensed the vibrations of the surrounding sand to detect where the basilisk was moving.

He opened his eyes, then jumped high.

Brust!

The sand gushed out, and the basilisk struck out of the sand. Its thirty cm long fangs were shrill enough to pierce Isaac's stomach. From the air, Isaac aimed his two guns at it.

Bang! Bang!

Two bullets 'mana' shot and pierced both of its eyes.

Splat—!

"Shessssh!"

The basilisk writhed and hissed in pain. Meanwhile, Isaac landed safely on the surface of the sand. Wasting no time, he aimed his dual gun at the serpent monster.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Sixteen bullets struck at the same point simultaneously.

Splat—!

The Basilisk's hard skin had been penetrated by the bullets. Blood gushed out, the snake writhed in the sand like a worm poured with salt.

Isaac shot it again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Four holes pierced its head. The Basilisk stopped moving.

The monster was dead. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖

[Warning, the effect of the item 'Sea of ??Life's Water' has been run out.]

[The effect of resistance to heat is removed.]

[The effect of resistance to cold is removed.]

A notification flashed in his head. Isaac's skin felt the heat again. He let out a long, exasperated sigh. He accessed his inventory and drank the item 'Sea of ??Life' again.

After the blue liquid passed through his throat, the buff notification reappeared, and his body felt cold again.

This was the ninth time Isaac gulped down the liquid.

Isaac had been wandering around in the desert for three hours, but he hadn't found what he was looking for.

'The 60th Basilisk… and I still haven't found it.'

He still had a lot of stock items right now. From the start, he had the intention of repeating this mission. He knew it would be difficult to find the 'secret' of the mission this time.

He had no problem having to face thousands of basilisks or other monsters. The main problem was how much stock of the 'Sea of ??Life' he carried in his inventory.

This desert could kill him.

Different from Earth, the Challenge Dimension had a much different environment. Even the demons, who couldn't feel tired, could feel sweat and thirst on the spot.

This was all thanks to the system in the game that made Isaac feel sick. All the natural features in this place were like the dungeons, it was made of energy and mana, so that it could harm their bodies.

'Should I raise the stats of my defense?'

<Status Character>

[Isaac Constantine - Lv 80]

[Rank : 99th - Baron ]

[Title : Chief of Beast, First Challenger, Master of the Wind]

[ Skill : 2/3]

[ Strength : 50 ]

[ Magic : 150 ]

[ Constitution : 66 ]

[ Dexterity : 83 ]

[ Perception : 80 ]

[ Unallocated stat points : 35 ]

Isaac then allocated 10 stat points to the constitution.

[ Strength : 50 ]

[ Magic : 150 ]

[ Constitution : 66 (76) ]

[ Dexterity : 83 ]

[ Perception : 80 ]

[ Unallocated stat points : 25]

After increasing the stat constitution, he felt his body's resistance increased.

'I think 10 points is enough to withstand the resistance.'

Isaac continued his search.

He kept walking through the desert. Following the wind where it took him. Along the way, he not only met the basilisk, other monsters such as ghouls, scorpion king, and ankylosaurus. Most of the time, he met ghouls.

They were unded type creatures. They couldn't be killed with physical attacks, only with mana. To kill them, Isaac needed to use elemental magic or attacks that contained a concentration of mana, such as his dual gun. Ghouls only appeared when it was dark.

Without realizing it, three more hours had passed. The day sky turned back to night. The scorching heat against his skin turned into a bone-chilling cold. Even so, he continued his journey.

Isaac had already drunk eighteen bottles of the 'Sea of ??Life.' There were still thirty-two bottles left.

'Damn it, I still haven't found it… that damn monster.'

Frustration began to creep in, but he quickly slapped himself on the cheek to keep his focus on the goal.

Suddenly, he felt a vibration under his feet.

Isaac turned his head. Behind him, something beneath the sand was moving at high speed, creating a long trail that looked like a dugout. Without seeing what was behind it, he knew what creature it was.

His mouth mumbled, "twelve… fourteen… damn there are more than 10 basilisks."

Isaac quickly ran away. Not out of fear, but he had killed 97 basilisks. He only had a limit of killing two more. If he killed more than that, the mission would be over. As he recalled, the 32nd challenge was in a different dimension.

He wouldn't be getting any special secrets from the challenge missions this time.

'Dammit!'

No matter how fast Isaac ran, the basilisks didn't stop chasing him. They only stopped when they encountered another prey.

"SHEEEEESSH!"

Swooosh!

Suddenly, in front of his face a basilisk appeared from the ground and pounced on him. Isaac reflexively jumped back to dodge the attack.

Misfortune befell Isaac.

"Damn it!"

The basilisks that were chasing Isaac before finally caught up with him. Fifteen eight metre long desert serpent monsters surrounded him. They hissed while sticking out their tongues.

Splaat!

The fluid could fly in many directions. The basilisks spitted out the venom like spittle, then it was followed by a swoop.

Splat! Splat!

Swooosh!

The yellow sand melts like hot candy. Isaac was trying his best to escape. He then took off his stained clothes.

When he was in a life and death situation, the sand suddenly shook again. This time, the vibration was very strong. Not far from Isaac's battle with the basilisk group, the sand was floating. So many, as if a mountain had risen from the desert.

The basilisks who saw the scene hissed, their animal instincts stirred and screamed for them to run. They quickly dived into the sand and left Isaac behind.

Not long after, the floating sand fell, revealing a giant black worm. The size was enormous, more than an apartment building, even though it just showed its head. In its mouth were tens of thousands of teeth that resembled a sword.

Isaac witnessed the creature's appearance grinned widely.

"I've finally found you."
