Becoming an adventurer by copying monster abilities

The roar behind me grew closer and closer, and I could clearly feel the anger and violence in the voice.

Luke immediately activated [Imagination Manifestation], empowering the gnoll's abilities and increasing his Agility to 8.

He suddenly increased his speed, but still couldn't widen the gap between himself and the sound.

Luke gritted his teeth, threw off the sleeping bag on his back, and began to sprint at full speed.

Even so, he could still hear the loud noises coming from behind him getting closer.

Moreover, as the sound grew closer, the ground beneath their feet began to tremble with each step of the other party.

Luke couldn't resist and looked back.

It was a giant creature nearly three meters tall, covered in rusty red hair.

With its thick, muscular limbs, two forelimbs hanging down to the ground, and four exaggerated fangs protruding outwards, it looks like an ape.

At this moment, the opponent was charging towards him with both hands and feet, and the tree trunks that were overturned by the force along the way demonstrated the opponent's terrifying charging ability.

Such terrifying speed left Luke with absolutely no way to avoid it.

In the blink of an eye, the other person was already in front of him.

Immediately afterward, the gorilla monster's impenetrable body swept past, reminding Luke of his last experience before he traveled here.

The enormous impact, just like that of the truck, sent him flying.

The scene in the forest began to recede rapidly, and he was completely defenseless, crashing straight into a giant tree trunk.

Even with two layers of armor protecting his body, the impact still left him severely injured.

The bones all over his body were groaning, especially his back and ribs, where countless bones were broken.

Luke used all his strength to pull out the bottle of healing potion that Ir had given him, and tremblingly drank it all down.

He didn't know what use drinking the medicine and struggling would be; it was a completely subconscious action.

Moreover, such severe injuries cannot be healed by a single bottle of ordinary medicine.

Luke stared at the terrifying figure of his opponent, his mind racing as he tried to find a way to break the deadlock.

This monster was not as badly injured as the previous Yenogu Fang.

Moreover, although the medicine relieved the pain in his body, it did not allow him to stand up.

Unless Lady Luck smiles on him, his chances of survival are slim.

wrong!

Luke noticed something amiss.

The terrifying ape monster rushed toward him without stopping.

Instead, it continued its relentless charge forward, smashing through all the obstacles in its path.

It was as if Luke had just been knocked away by it simply because he had blocked its path.

Luke tilted his head with some difficulty to look at the other person's departing figure.

On the other person's back, there was a huge scar that ran from the shoulder to the waist, almost completely severing the back.

The wound looked as if it had been burned by high temperatures, leaving a lingering burnt smell in the air.

With each violent impact, organs would occasionally fall from the wound.

It seems that the opponent is using up all their remaining life force to sprint forward.

"What kind of being could inflict such terrible wounds on a creature of this level?"

Luke leaned against the tree trunk, panting, hoping that the more terrifying thing wouldn't catch up.

Otherwise, given his current condition, the other party might be able to send him away with just a little bit of aftermath.

Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.

Footsteps echoed again from the direction the ape monster had emerged from.

Luke tried to move his arm, and a sharp pain shot through him.

Several figures gradually came into focus in his field of vision.

Despite being stained with a small amount of blood, the silver-white armor still couldn't hide its gleaming texture.

On the chest of the armor, the holy emblem of two longswords crossed vertically emitted a faint light.

These people had met Luke once before.

It was the same person from the Holy Light Cross who had stayed at the Old Oak Barrel Tavern before.

The man leading the group, wielding a two-handed greatsword, was the first to spot the dying Luca and quickly walked up to him.

Seeing the other's serious injuries, the man understood and gently reached out his right hand towards Luke's chest.

Luke instinctively wanted to resist, but quickly stopped struggling.

The familiar light in the man's hand—he had seen it in Yi'er's hand before.

"Healing Techniques".

However, unlike Yi'er's healing technique, this light was even more dazzling.

It not only allowed his injuries to heal quickly, but also swept away all his fatigue.

"Are you alright now?"

The man asked with concern.

"Thank you." Although he didn't know why the other person had helped him, Luke still expressed his sincere gratitude.

"You're welcome. We should be the ones apologizing to you."

The man's eyes were full of sincerity as he pointed ahead:

"We didn't expect that evil ape demon to be so resilient, running so far away and almost endangering innocent people."

Hearing the name of the gorilla monster, Luke felt relieved.

The Evil Ape Demon also comes from the bottomless abyss.

The demonic creature, resembling a gorilla, not only possesses a terrifying physique but also has a certain ability to cast spells.

Of course, spells are obviously unnecessary to deal with a level one professional like him.

Because the opponent's challenge level is 5.

"If this causes you any trouble or loss, you can leave me a message at the Adventurers' Guild, and we will contact you when we get back."

The man placed a silver holy symbol, about the size of a knuckle and engraved with two swords, into Luke's hand as a token for later searching for them.

At the same time, he took out two bottles of green potion from his waist and placed them next to Luke.

"This is an antidote. We dispelled many demons while chasing this evil ape demon. If you encounter it on the road, please be careful."

After saying that, the man nodded to Luca and, with the others behind him, continued to chase after the direction in which the evil ape demon had escaped.

Watching the other person's retreating figure, Luke's mind was in a state of confusion.

What is this?

The world of adventurers shouldn't be like this!

Several adventurers, who were obviously ridiculously strong, came over and healed their bodies.

He left behind a badge that looked quite valuable and a potion worth dozens of gold coins.

They left without even giving their names.

"What a kind person..."

This is the only assessment Luke could offer.

Such a high level of morality allowed Luke to roughly guess the man's identity.

This should be a paladin of the good faction.

Only someone with such a status could make such a move.

It's heartwarming.

Luke got up from the ground and stuffed the holy symbol and two vials of antidote into his clothes.

After searching through the woods for a while, I found my sleeping bag and luggage that I had left behind, and officially began my journey back.

I don't know whether this adventure of mine was lucky or unlucky.

Luke considered the profits he had made and then nodded.

I guess I was lucky...
