“I really underestimated this…”
Otto’s groggy head reflected on his rash actions. He could have flown away from here right after gaining the upper hand and slowly grind down this monster to death.
Who would have thought the monster’s toxicity would be so fierce?
Just as he was thinking of a solution, he suddenly discovered that the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard was devouring his own flesh and blood, which enraged Otto.
Anger burnt away his rationality.
He had always been the one consuming others; when did it ever occur that he would become someone else’s food?
“Eat, keep eating! I’d like to see whose appetite is better!”
The furious Otto immediately bit down on one of the heads of the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard. With various ability enhancements, Otto’s bite force was terrifyingly astounding.
With just a slight tug, he tore the head and the connected neck from the body, even though it was detached.
The severed head still hadn’t lost consciousness in an instant, and continued to struggle and bite Otto’s neck.
But such resistance was futile. Otto, not even bothering to chew, swallowed the head like slurping noodles.
After his last sleep, he hadn’t eaten enough, so his appetite was excellent now.
The taste was surprisingly good, with a sour and spicy flavor accompanied by a tingling sensation. It was more like eating hot and sour glass noodle soup, which was very appetizing.
After eating one of the snake heads, Otto’s condition seemed to have improved slightly. His mysterious light ball in his brain popped up some information, but he didn’t have the mood to check it at the moment.
His appetite wide open, Otto licked his teeth, tainted with greenish flesh, and swiftly tore off another snake head that was biting his dragon wings.
The hissing, struggling snake head was sucked into Otto’s stomach with a slurping sound, still tasting the spicy sourness, making him feel more addicted with every bite.
The Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard finally noticed something was wrong. Although it was also gnawing at Otto’s flesh,
Otto’s scales were incredibly strong. By the time it managed to tear off a piece of flesh, Otto had already swallowed its third head.
Abandoning their attempts to feed, the remaining three heads, along with the newly regrown heads, attacked Otto’s lower jaw and neck, trying to stop his action.
But their resistance wasn’t enough in Otto’s eyes. Due to their body angle, he could easily sever the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard’s neck at the base.
Then, like slurping noodles, he swallowed the monster’s head along with its neck.
With every head Otto tore off, the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard would quickly grow a new head and neck in its place. But as Otto ate more and more heartily, the regeneration couldn’t keep up.
Recovering from decapitation was its innate magic, but it wasn’t a miraculous creation out of nothing; it required the consumption of its own energy.
Growing new heads continuously had already depleted much of its body’s energy. Slowly, the speed at which it regrew heads couldn’t keep up with Otto’s eating pace.
After a long time, only one head of the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard was left, still putting up a futile resistance.
It furiously bit at Otto’s neck, but due to its own weakness, it couldn’t penetrate Otto’s scales.
On the other hand, Otto’s previously bitten scales and torn flesh began to heal rapidly, and the poison from the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard’s venom had less and less effect on him.
Finally, the last snake head was swallowed by Otto, and the highly toxic beast stopped struggling, completely dead.
The death of the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard didn’t let Otto spare it. His mind was hazy as if he had lost most of his consciousness, driven by instinct to keep devouring the monster’s corpse beneath him.
Eventually, Otto swallowed the monster, whose size was much larger than his own, leaving no bones behind, but his stomach didn’t appear bloated at all.
Having lost his target, Otto swayed his massive body, and finally collapsed into the swampy water, slipping into a deep slumber.Fortunately, Otto had the ability to breathe underwater; otherwise, it would have been a drowned foolish dragon.
This time, Otto’s state of slumber was different from before. He had a foggy head and couldn’t concentrate, like he had been drunk and lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, Otto opened his eyes in a daze. Upon discovering that his head was submerged in a foul-smelling muddy puddle, he immediately stood up.
He shook his head, trying to clear his mind, then vigilantly looked around.
“Splish-splash…”
A skeleton with a dry, yellow skull was flickering with a strange flame. It clumsily moved its body in the water, trying to escape. In the end, however, it was shattered by a flick of Otto’s tail.
“Why are there even undead in this damned place…”
Perhaps this low-level skeleton was attracted by the soul of the recently deceased Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard, so Otto didn’t pay it much attention.
Slapping his head, memories from before he fell asleep slowly surfaced.
Though the previous battle was somewhat thrilling, he ultimately emerged as the victor.
Looking at his reflection in the water, Otto realized that the appearance didn’t seem to have undergone any noticeable changes, but his body length seemed to have increased once again.
He looked at the strange light ball inside his head, which had many unread messages, seemingly flooded.
“Successfully devoured Rotten Blood Multi-headed Serpent Lizard elite, obtained High-level Poison Resistance…”
“Obtained Rotten Blood…”
“Obtained Potent Poison Breath…”
“Obtained Multi-headed Regeneration…”
…
“Potent Poison Breath fused with Flame Breath, obtained Flaming Poison Breath…”
“Multi-headed Regeneration fused with Advanced Proliferation, obtained Self Proliferation…”
…
…
After spending some time reading through all the information, Otto found high-level poison resistance easy to understand. It seemed that very few poisonous substances could harm him in the future.
As for the other abilities, he would have to explore and experiment slowly. Otto first tried slashing his own scales, causing a slight wound while green poisonous blood oozed out like a fountain.
Just when he was slightly worried about whether this ability might pose a risk of self-harm, he discovered that his healing ability could be controlled.
He could now decide whether to quickly heal a wound based on his thoughts. Perhaps this was the power of self-proliferation.
Next, he began trying to use his most familiar spraying weapon.
There wasn’t much of a difference when using Potent Poison Breath and the Rotten Blood Serpent Lizard, which both relied on spraying viscous poisonous liquid.
But Flaming Poison Breath was much more different. When using this spraying weapon, Otto spewed a green mist from his mouth.
This mist not only had toxicity comparable to Potent Poison Breath but also formed an incredibly corrosive force when combined with extreme temperatures.
Otto tested it on the shattered skeleton crushed by his tail. A small puff of flame poison mist instantly turned the remains of the skeleton into a disgusting and viscous substance upon contact.
