After rendering the chimera monster motionless, Randy quickly but slowly undid its grip around his neck and then he helplessly fell on the ground below with a 'thud' sound since he was still having trouble moving his body.

Afterward, Randy staggered slightly after he picked himself up and he forcefully moved his body by manipulating his own blood and using his blood to pump his unmovable muscles to enable movement.

Just like applying lubricants to a movable mechanism that has trouble operating properly without it, by circulating blood throughout his body, he was now able to make his muscles move despite the ability that caused them to be unable to contract or bulge.

The pain of moving his body forcefully was excruciating but it was nothing compared to the time when he was being ruthlessly slashed through by the chimera monster a while ago.

The next moment, he took out a bunch of potions from his storage bracelet, and after opening one bottle, he chugged it down without hesitation.

Afterward, he opened another bottle, chugged that one down his throat too with audible gulps, and then another, and another until he was satisfied.

He emptied out almost all the bottle of potions that he took out from his storage bracelet.

At this time, he saw the system notification projected in front of his eyes with different line of text describing the effects of each potion that he took just now.

..

Randy essentially decided to drink almost all the potion that he had brought with him on this trip since his life was on the line and he could not afford to be stingy with his expenditure.

Due to the consumption of these amounts of potions, he had not only managed to heal all his wounds slightly, but he also managed to recover his depleted magical energy.

Although he had the myriad energy devouring physique which enabled him to recover a certain amount of energy lost per second, it was not like it could completely refill his expended magical energy in a short time.

And due to that, he had to consume these expensive mana recovery potions, but the effects were greater than he had imagined because he was able to recover his magical energy very quickly with the aid of the potion.

Perhaps, it was because of his physique that he was able to recover in such a short time, but none of that matters to him. historical

What matters the most was getting rid of the opponent in front of him, but it was not easy to defeat this chimera monster that was not looking hurt even after his previous attacks.

'Wait, it was not hurt? I thought I inflicted a lot of damage on it. So how did it not have a single wound on its body?'

Randy observed the chimera monster's body closely and then inwardly uttered in disbelief.

'Does it also have a self-healing ability or something similar? Fuck! No wonder it was able to unleash that unknown ability against me despite my onslaught against it.'

'But how do I defeat this monster that was unfazed by my attack before. Even now, it is struggling to break free from my blood authority skill..'

'Right, the system, maybe the system could provide some usual information on this monster or how to deal with it.'

Randy quickly decided and immediately turn to the projected system screen in front of his eyes.

'System, Uhm, do you know anything about this monster? Or perhaps a way to defeat it with my current abilities?' Randy felt awkward as he asked this question.

He never expected that the one he would consult to aid him in battle would be his system.

Although the systems are like a support mechanism for the awakened until they fully master their abilities, it still felt strange asking something like this to his system.

After all, all this time, he never bothered asking the system on how to fight his enemies, and only depended on it to appraise items or artifacts and comprehend techniques.

Besides the aforementioned, he never used it for anything else until now.

But right now, what he was doing was essentially asking the system to teach him how to fight his enemy.

Surprisingly, the system responded to his question.

[[Detected that the host is in a critical situation]]

[[Devising possible solutions]]

[[Viable solution found]]

[[Reminder: The host still has crystallized ability stones in the system storage. However, in the end, the choice is up to you. If the host deemed the situation dire enough, you could try absorbing one of the ability stones to increase your chance of survival]]

Crystallized Ability Stones?

'So there was that too. Then again, I never bothered checking this since I still wasn't sure whether it was okay to absorb something like this. After all, according to the system, there were two methods of absorption, and each had a drawback or downside so to speak.'

'But now is not the time to ponder which was a better option. If I could survive this situation by simply absorbing one of the crystallized Ability stones, then I will go for it without hesitation.'

'But even so, I need to make sure this counts and not simply absorb a useless ability just because I am desperate to survive'

With that thought in mind, Randy carefully asked his system: 'So.. System, which one of the crystallized ability stones do you think would be useful in this situation? I don't know the descriptions of the crystallized ability stones and I don't have the time to read through them right now. So please help me choose.'

[[Request Acknowledged]]

[[Recommended that the host absorb this blue crystallized ability as it would not only be more beneficial to your current situation, but it would also be the easiest to comprehend based on your current comprehension capability]]

Stating so, a blue but transparent marble-like sphere containing something within suddenly appeared out of nowhere and hovered in front of Randy's eyes.

"This is.."
