Chapter 355: Most terrifying Beasts

He didn't think that he would obtain a handwritten book about the Mythic Garden, just like that.

It was not as if he did anything to gain it and one could say that the book was thrown towards him.

Jason thought that it was weird to have a handwritten book about the Mythic Garden, however, it was even weirder that the owner of this book had died in the gigantic forest's center as if he didn't know about its dangers.

Reading through the first few pages of the book, Jason could immediately tell that the book was the real deal which caused him to become even more suspicious about the dead owner's behavior.

'The gigantic forest is known as the' Forest of Slaughter, Takra' and everything written inside the first few pages clearly show its dangers!!.. In that case.why the hell did the owner of this book die? Did he receive it from his clan or family just before he departed or was this person too confident about his/her abilities which caused him or her to disregard reading the book?'

Jason knew that he wouldn't be able to figure out the answer and it was not as if it mattered to him.

He just felt that the book was not used properly which Jason decided to change

'Thanks for giving me such a treasure' He thought inwardly, thanking the dead person for gifting him something so precious.

Reading through the thick book, several hours had passed before Jason realized as a loud howling resounded through the Takra, the forest of Slaughter.

'Could that have been the Demonic Three-Eyed Wolf?' He asked himself, as he turned a few pages back, where the image of a pitch-black wolf with three eyes was drawn.

Its third eye was horizontal and had tiny purple lines similar to runes around it, which could kill someone within a moment as long as the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf injected enough mana into it.

It was unable to kill someone at the same rank or above, but it was still possible to inflict a lot of internal pain, or even cripple someone's tendons, burst open eyes or inflict other, severe injuries to its opponent.

The book about the Mythic Garden was filled with all kinds of beasts one should avoid or contract as soulbond if possible. Everything written within the book was extremely interesting to Jason who didn't know anything about the beasts inside the Mythic Garden.

As such he gained lots of information in a short time thanks to the handwritten book which he completely read through after another several hours had passed.

He skipped most blessed beasts that were labeled as 'beneficial to bind' because he was not searching for a blessed beast as his soulbond.

Instead, he was more interested in the label 'experimental to bind with -Might be advantageous' which told Jason that there were already a few people that tried to bind cursed beasts like his master, only that Shane bound a pseudo-cursed beast.

Apparently, there were only two outcomes one could receive after binding a cursed beast.

Either one would be weakened to a certain degree but able to curse others with the inherited curse one would receive, or one would receive a strengthened curse without being able to curse others with it.

In the former outcome, one could be called a cursed being oneself because one was able to direct curses at others intentionally as the Crimson-death Hell Spider or the cursed panther could do.

Meanwhile, the latter was extremely bad in most cases and would result in a major decrease in one's combat prowess.

Even killing one's cursed soulbond was not helpful anymore because one would not only harbor the curse but it would have spread through one's whole body!

When Jason read that, he was once again reassured that he couldn't take his mission lightly.

He had to find a perfect soulbond or he would have to live with the consequences.

The handwritten book about the Mythic Garden had many cursed beasts and sentient plants inside it.

Additionally, it had a list of the most terrifying ranked beings that habitated the Mythic Carden to which the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf belonged to.

Its strength was above a common Guardian-ranked beast even though it was only at the peak-Magical rank.

And that was without using its third eye!

Other than the Demonic Three-eyed Wolf, there were other cursed beats like the Dark Satyr, Boneflame centipede, deathbed flower, and a Petrification serpent.

All of them had their own peculiar curses that made them stronger than they already were but the Petrification serpent seemed to be the most feared and at the same time searched beast for young prodigies.

While other cursed beasts' curses were extremely powerful and feared by everyone, the Petrification serpent seemed to be slightly different.

It was said that the Petrification serpent harbored two curses at once. One curse was that it could create a temporary weakening effect on other beings that could vary between 5%-30%. This was already shocking but worse was that the weakening effect was worse on humans.

Apparently, this curse was very versatile and nobody knew exactly how it worked, which was extremely bad considering that one would fight against a beast that might reduce your strength by a quarter!

If that was all, the petrification serpent wouldn't have been considered as an extremely annoying opponent,

However, the second curse was the petrification curse as the serpent's name indicated.

It could petrify opponents that were at a lower rank than it was while foes at the same rank would start to petrify as long as the petrification serpent utilized enough mana to overwhelm the natural resistance of its foes.

Higher ranked foes wouldn't be petrified but they would have small problems moving around because their condition would be similar to being paralyzed to a certain extent.

Combining these two curses, the petrification serpent was extremely powerful. If one were to be at a higher rank than the petrification serpent, the weakening curse could change this while the petrification curse might be enough to finish a higher-ranked opponent before it was able to attack!

Jason could also understand why everyone wanted such a beast as a soulbond.

It was relatively simple!

If one were able to harbor both curses in one's body while being able to release them at other opponents, one might be able to fight the same way as the petrification serpent.

Sometimes one might not even have to move to come out of a fight victorious!

However, even if this would have been perfect, it was a fact that the petrification serpent was considered to be within the Top 3 of the strongest beasts that inhabited the Mythic Garden.

Its mana core rank might only be at the peak-Magical rank which seems to be the highest beast rank within the Mythic Garden, however, the petrification serpent was a physically oriented beast!

One could say that the petrification serpent was able to defeat all peak-Magical ranked beasts solely with its body.

Jason didn't even doubt that it was able to defeat Guardian ranked beasts only through its physical strength too!

At least that was according to a few certain tales the handwritten book told about the petrification serpent.

Reading the tales about the petrification serpent being able to fight four of the most terrifying beasts inside the Mythic Garden at once were frightening, but Jason felt like he wanted to see how it looked like.

The Crimson-Death Hell Spider was already considered an extremely strong beast within the Mythic Garden, but it was still weaker than the most powerful beings in the book's ranking.

This clearly showed how terrifying the strongest beasts were.

Weirdly enough, Jason noticed that the Top 10 of the most terrifying beasts were perfectly balanced with 5 blessed beings and 5 cursed beings.

'That shouldn't be right...It's probably forged.... but whatever'

The names of some blessed beings sounded ridiculous and he doubted that they belonged in the most 'terrifying' ranking.

'Silver-eyed rabbit' and 'Millennium Cotton-sheep' didn't really sound like terrifying beasts but the tales Jason read about them were completely different.

[Choked by cotton] [Bewitched by eyes and suicided]

Other than that, Jason figured out that the silver-eyed rabbit seemed to harbo a blessing which allowed it to foretell the future to a certain extent.

That was in addition to its affinity which made it extremely strong and also popular for everyone who searched for a powerful, blessed beast as soulbond.

However, Jason knew that nobody would be able to get their hands on such a beast under with mankind's current capabilities!
