After going into the sea, I met the witch.

"kill!"

[A triumphant battle cry!]

The sonic waves, imbued with spiritual energy, spread out, causing the crimson tyrannosaurus, which was directly hit, to momentarily lose its senses. Its body, out of control, continued to charge towards Ryan due to inertia.

However, having lost its master's control, the impact has lost its cohesion, greatly reducing its power.

What greeted the crimson tyrannosaurus was the [Storm Sword Skill - Breaking Wave], which had completed "one and a half charge-ups"!

"Tear--"

The silver-blue greatsword sliced ​​through the air, causing it to groan. As the sword's shadow passed, it left behind countless tiny ice crystals, a beautiful sight that carried a resolute killing intent.

"Boom--!"

The greatsword collided violently with the head of the crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex, producing a deep, resounding clang.

The terrifying recoil force traveled back along the greatsword, sending Ryan flying backward.

Meanwhile, the red Tyrannosaurus Rex on the other side abruptly stopped its charge, its head tilted upwards, it stumbled two steps back, and crashed to the ground.

—A greatsword stopping the dragon chariot, this is a romance unique to men!

"boom!"

Ryan, who was flying backwards, quickly regained his balance in mid-air and placed his legs on the trunk of the giant tree. Instantly, terrifying fine lines spread across the bark of the giant tree.

Despite the pain all over his body, the fighting spirit in Ryan's eyes burned even brighter.

He swallowed the "abundant pearl powder" in his mouth, then suddenly exerted force with his legs, leaping forward and slashing down with his greatsword.

"Boom!"

Another heavy slash landed on the crimson tyrannosaurus's head. Even though this sword strike was not charged up, its power was not to be underestimated due to the force of gravity as it fell.

The crimson tyrannosaurus let out a miserable roar, but its imbalance and dizziness prevented it from getting up.

The greatsword rose upwards due to the recoil, and after Ryan landed, he smoothly hoisted the greatsword onto his shoulder.

Three seconds later, the "one and a half charge" was completed.

"boom!"

The greatsword slashed down with immense force, slamming into the crimson tyrannosaurus's head.

With a crisp "crack," the crimson Tyrannosaurus skull, which had been struck several times by the greatsword, could no longer withstand the blows and cracks appeared.

The crimson tyrannosaurus's struggling, enormous body suddenly froze at that moment, and after a brief twitch, it quickly fell into coldness and stillness.

"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

Ryan was breathing heavily.

Even though consuming "Abundant Pearl Powder" could greatly accelerate the recovery of his physical strength and injuries in a short period of time, the two consecutive full-load charged heavy strikes exhausted his physical strength, mental strength, and spirituality.

He didn't even have the strength to pull out the greatsword; Ryan knelt on the ground, his chest heaving violently.

The upgrade of his travel clone brought a warm current flowing through his body, nourishing Ryan's nearly exhausted body and mind.

"pat..."

A sharp, reddish tooth fell from the crimson tyrannosaurus's mouth and landed on the ground, emitting a hazy, bronze glow.

[Loot Found: Crimson Fang]!

Ryan reached out and picked up the reddened tooth.

-

[Loot: Crimson Fang]: A bronze-grade loot, the incisor of a crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex, its cold, white color shimmering with the light of flames. It comes with the special skill [Concentration Lv.1]: Reduces greatsword charge time by 5%, and increases special energy bar accumulation speed by 5% (this effect is not active if the corresponding ability is not currently mastered).

-

"【Concentration Technique】?!"

Looking at the gray text describing the "Loot: Crimson Fang," Ryan's eyes widened slightly.

He never expected that the first special skill he would acquire with the same name would be [Concentration], which would accelerate the charging speed of his greatsword.

—【Concentration Lv.2】: Greatsword charge time reduced by 10%, special energy bar accumulation speed increased by 10% (This effect cannot be activated if the corresponding ability is not currently mastered)

Seeing the [Concentration Lv.2] skill stacked to "lv.2" on the panel, Ryan could no longer contain his joy, and a genuine smile appeared on his lips.

A full 10% reduction in the greatsword charge time!

"Roar--!"

Just then, the familiar dragon's roar rang out once more.

Ryan leaned on his greatsword and stood up.

Instead of trying to escape, he quickly got behind the crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex corpse, used his last bit of strength to cut off its tail, and then put it into his spatial ring.

After finishing this, he silently looked up and saw the familiar red figure approaching from high above, and sighed softly.

"Always so timely, tsk..."

"You'll get off easy this time."

Ryan's heart bled as he glanced at the crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex corpse in front of him.

Unlike the small, special species like the Thunder Dragon, the crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex, which was nearly twenty meters long, was simply too large for the space ring that already contained some items to hold. In his haste, he could only try to salvage the situation by salvaging the entire dragon tail.

"I need to figure out a way to get a bigger spatial ring..."

Ryan thought to himself silently.

The Rathalos leader descended, and familiar raging flames fell.

Amidst the raging flames, Ryan looked up, his gaze fixed on the shadow of the red dragon above.

"It'll be soon...it'll be soon..."

"We will eventually have a battle."

……

[Places for Viewing]

Freyne knelt on the ground, rubbing her hands together excitedly. Her fluffy witch's hat swayed from side to side, revealing her excitement.

It's open! It's finally open!

The battle the traveler experienced tonight lasted exceptionally long, making her quite impatient.

Now, the words "In the midst of battle, please wait for the final result" on the screen have finally faded away.

"Great!"

"As expected of the traveler I had high hopes for, the battle is finally over!"

"Let me see, let me see, an investment interest rate of 5.4:1, and an investment of 268..."

"1447 Spirit Essence!"

"We've made a fortune!"

Freyne's face flushed slightly with excitement.

Just as she was immersed in joy, a notification suddenly popped up on the screen.

[Detected that "The Novice Traveler" encountered another monster during the battle with "Crimson Tyrannosaurus," namely "Rathian"...]

[Additional investment is underway...]

【Comparison of combat strength between the two sides: Wanderer (27) vs. Rathian (34, weakened)】

[Battle ratio – Traveler: Female Rathalos = 5.5:1.1, minimum investment: 100 Spirit Essence.]

You have thirty seconds to place your bet...

The new prompt made Freyne blink.

She hesitated.

She currently possesses 1447 spirit essences; if she were to invest them all in the Traveler and lose…

After all, the difference in combat power between the Traveler and the Rathian this time was so great.

Even the Crimson Tyrannosaurus has a combat power of only 30.

After hesitating for a moment, she made a decision.

"700 Spirit Essence, for the Traveler!"

In the witch's pale blue eyes, a light known as "gambling addict" gleamed.

Only by taking a chance can a small boat grow into a big one!

Chapter 75 Good, good, good! You wretched traveler, is this how you play the game?!

[Viewing Area] Inside.

To Freya's surprise, this "additional investment" yielded results very quickly.

A line of text appeared before her eyes.

The battle log is as follows:

The traveler encountered a female Rathalos during a battle with a Crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex...

A conflict arose between the Crimson Tyrannosaurus and the Rathian, which escalated into a "monster territory battle"...

The wounded traveler seized the opportunity to escape.

Upon seeing this, Freya was momentarily stunned.

What the heck is this about taking the opportunity to escape?

You're the main character in this battle, how can you possibly run away!

And Rathian, what's wrong with you? Instead of fighting the Travelers, you're having some kind of "monster territory battle" with the Crimson Tyrannosaurus Rex. You're completely neglecting your duties!

"Hu Chi... Hu Chi..."

Freyne was having some difficulty breathing.
