Opportunities were reserved for those who were prepared.

Since the very beginning, Maxwell was preparing to slaughter Asher. The preparation time was a bit long, and Maxwell had gotten a bit impatient.

Asher was just too arrogant.

The smug sneer of his lips was really annoying to look at.

At least Maxwell felt it was very annoying.

The explosion of the King's Seal had broken through the power of the Dragon Execution Array. The moment the array was shattered, Maxwell exploded forth in anger. Pretty much no one reacted to him because their attention was focused up in the air.

It was only Maxwell...

He focused his attention on Asher the entire time.

No matter how strong the King's Seal was or how powerful the Dragon Execution Array was, it still wasn't as attractive as the golden glow of a boss monster around Asher's figure.

He was nonetheless a boss and had to be killed!

And he only had one chance to strike!

Under the enhancement of level 3 Overdrive, the Vampire Blade contained an immensely powerful force while chopping down.

At this moment...

Asher only had time to look over and not enough time to react. His eyes could only widen in anger before shouting: "Nooo…"

"Bam!"

A single blade strike smashed him into meat powder!

Instantly killed!

Also at this moment, a system notification sounded off in Maxwell's mind.

Maxwell closed his eyes to enjoy this wondrous occasion.

"Crackle!"

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for killing Asher."

"Reward: 50,000 XP, 6000 mana"

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for gaining the esoterics to the Dragon Execution Array."

"Crackle!"

"Badge +1."

The system notification then stopped at this point.

Maxwell tilted his head and waited for more alerts. When there were no more alert tones for a while, he then started cursing in his heart: "You damn system! It was still a boss I killed, so you should be exploding forth with loot at a comparable level! Apart from some dog's fart array, you didn't give me anything else! Screw you, you damn counterfeit!"

He was depressed. Extremely depressed!

Asher was nonetheless a boss with a bright golden glow, and he only exploded forth some damn esoterics to an array. Maxwell couldn't accept this at all!

He fought with his life on the line and almost perished in the gnome's territory. Now that there weren't any good loots exploding forth, how could he accept this?

Maxwell was dreaming of a system reward for killing a boss, yet now it looks like Asher was no different than a pile of dog shit.

After a long time, Maxwell finally sighed in his heart. He then helplessly opened up the system interface to look up information about the esoterics of the Dragon Execution Array.

Array: Dragon Execution Array

Comprehension: 100%

Time To Engrave Array: 1 day

Material Consumption: 100 attributed beast cores

---

Seeing the material consumption and the time it took to engrave the array, Maxwell felt like he was sentenced to forced labour.

But the last part made his eyes glow.

Array Description: This array has the power to kill divine dragons. When the array is activated, all sources of energy will lose their effect inside the array. All living entities inside will be killed by an ancient power. The duration of the array is 1 day. (Note: This array is only applicable to those on the same cultivation level or lower. When the user's engraving array technique reaches the last great perfection realm, then this restriction is removed, and the array can be applied to any expert of any cultivation level.)

In simpler words, Maxwell's current level of engraving arrays was too low and was only capable of trapping or killing those at the same level as him. Anyone with a higher cultivation level than him cannot be contained within the array. Once his Engraving Array technique reaches the last great perfection level, even someone at the God level could be killed!

It was overpowered!

Maxwell laughed. This laugh of his was similar to those super villains you see in the movies.

"What's so great about God Rankers, huh?"

An array that can even kill God Rankers..."

Engraving array technique, huh? What he had was time, so eventually, one day, he would raise the technique level to the last great perfection stage. When that day comes, he will become an invincible existence in the world. When a God ranker meets him, they can only bow down and scrape before him. If there's any disrespect, Maxwell could directly smash him to smithereens!

"Cool!"

The depression he was feeling before instantly disappeared as his mood became great. But it then suddenly changed again as he said, "I almost forgot about something."

"Black Tortoise, you are truly a damn turtle. You became a deathly afraid dog at a crucial moment and lost all face for me."

"Shit, where the hell did that damn thing sneak off to?!"

Maxwell angrily shouted.

The Titan Technique was only missing one blood essence. If he could get the powerful Black Tortoise's blood, then he could successfully fuse it into a complete bloodline.

A spawned beast at the peak of the above diamond rank... His blood essence will definitely contain an incomparably powerful energy. Once the bloodline fusion is complete, the power behind it will definitely be powerful enough to cause a complete mess. Maxwell could already imagine Constantine's insufferably arrogant expression.

Except that he was angrily screaming for it, but couldn't find its figure.

It had completely disappeared!

Maxwell couldn't even detect its aura in the vicinity. He then helplessly said to himself: "What the hell is going on? Didn't my Puppet Master successfully recruit it to become my battle pet? How could it disappear just like that?"

Indeed...

Black Tortoise was recruited by Maxwell, and logically speaking, it shouldn't have disappeared just like that.

But the Black Tortoise was a spawned beast that was summoned through Asher's Psychic Array. It was technically still linked to Asher as his pet. So once Asher died, the Black Tortoise lost that link and disappeared.

Maxwell was a bit depressed once again.

At the same time, all the surrounding gnomes were staring at Maxwell.

Their eyes were burning and filled with admiration.

Fernando walked up to Maxwell's side and heavily kneeled down. He then kowtowed and said: "Thank you! Thank you, boss!"

"Crackle!"

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for completing the Save the Gnome Race quest."

"You have gained the reward..."

Maxwell had ignored everything above and was focusing on listening to what supportive technique he would be rewarded with.

Random reward activated!

A few seconds later...

"Crackle!"

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for gaining Cultivation Technique…"

Upon hearing the name, Maxwell became super excited.

The system's voice continued...

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for gaining Pill Alchemy Technique…"

Maxwell's heart sank as he loudly cursed in his heart: "You damn crappy system!"

The Pill Alchemy skill was indeed considered a supportive martial technique. If it were back then, Maxwell would definitely be excited about getting a technique to craft pills. But when he heard the words Cultivation Technique, the first thing he thought of was those Essence Flames because they were simply too awesome.

Maxwell was really looking forward to an Offence Technique!

Except...

He really couldn't accept the Pill Alchemy Technique when his expectations were dashed.

The system's voice was still continuing...

"Congratulations to player Maxwell Gillette for gaining Cultivation Technique Pill Alchemy. Success rate +10%, medicinal property +10%, quality +10%, time to craft pills reduced by 10%...

There were various ten per cent stat modifications!

Maxwell was dumbfounded for a while before he started laughing. He then said internally, "Now that's more like it! That's the kind of super awesome technique I expect."

Even the cultivation of pill alchemy was different from what Maxwell received.

With all these ten per cent modifications to pill alchemy, who on earth would be his opponent in the future?

Without the help of the people around him, Maxwell could still become an awesome existence. And sooner or later, his abilities will surpass everyone!

"Hero!"

"Hero!"

"Hero!"

The blood of the entire gnome race was boiling. In every corner of their territory, the gnomes were shouting with their greatest effort because Maxwell had now become the absolute hero in their hearts!

Maxwell chuckled as he was a bit overwhelmed by the flattery. He then lowered himself and asked: "Little squirt, where's that mountain of beast cores?"
