If Zynx attacked, then his camouflage would wear off. So, rather than using absolute poison shot, he lunged behind the bronze earthworm and bite at its back without releasing poison.

Even though Zynx didn't use poison, bronze earthworm could feel pain from the bite. It generates large hissing and started squirming on the ground to get rid of Zynx.

But would Zynx let it go? Of course not.

Zynx maintained his biting.

Others bronze earthworms were not too distant from them, so another 2 bronze earthworms also sensed something and glanced toward them when they witnessed their brother receiving an attack.

They slithered toward them with excitement and anger on their face.

Zynx saw them noticing him, so he released poison inside the bronze earthworm and slithered backward at the area of the poison ward with half of his genuine speed.

Another 2 bronze earthworms saw that their prey was escaping away, so they raised their speed and reached toward the poisoned bronze earthworm.

They saw bronze earthworm not reacting and assumed it might have been killed by that little thing, they became wary.

They wanted to make sure if it was really dead, so one of them slithered toward it and shook it and noticed slight twitching, 'Ahh, so it is just unconscious.'

They then let down their guard as they deemed a little creature like Zynx was just prey for them, nothing more.

Who would tell them that twitching was not because of unconscious movement but due to the poison influencing, each part of its internal organ.

When Zynx reached inside the attack range of poison ward, he halted and gazed at bronze earthworm and began hissing at them.

They thought since it could not outrun them, it might have determined to go all out, so they became more confident.

But after they got inside the range of poison ward they became startled.

One of them got engulfed by poison ward and another one was shot by absolute poison shot, altering the shape of poison into a spear. When spear hit the head of the bronze earthworm, Zynx followed up with another one, finally eliminating it.

Now, there was only Zynx, poison ward and poisoned bronze earthworm inside swamp.

He slithered neared the poison earthworm and used paralysis poison on it after paralysis took effect, he expelled poison from its body as he didn't want to kill it.

….

Zynx understood overconfidence was poison and was the main culprit for destroying one's self, so he should not underestimate adult one just because he was able to get little victory over young one.

Zynx didn't consider himself as a hero who would challenge without a chance of victory and ultimately attaining victory due to a fluke, coincidence, luck or whatever.

If he needed to represent himself, then it should be the devil, who uses scheming, blackmailing, calculation and anything that was available to gain victory and if still, he could not achieve a victory then he would retreat and come back later.

If there is a shortcut to gain victory then he will directly take it. So, Zynx decided to keep this paralyzed earthworms alive to use as bait for adult one.

Zynx didn't know when adult bronze earthworm would return, so he commanded poison ward to swallow 2 of those bronze earthworms instead of swallowing himself.

[Level: 3/5(76%)]

[Bronze earthworm*2]

[Time for digestion – 10 min]

One of them was still living, so he didn't obtain experience point and parchment from it.

Zynx then dragged the paralyzed bronze earthworm who was still paralyzed to the land from swamp and place it beneath the shed of the dead tree. While he began using poison on the dead soil, trying to corrode it.

After 10 minutes,

[Ancient bloodline (white crystal) = level 2(61%)]

Zynx ignored the notification. He was just continuously using poison to corrode the black soil, but then he remembered fast digestion skill used by poison ward.

"Mia"

[Yes]

"Is it true that poison ward is 1.5 times stronger than me?]

[Yes]

"Then does it have all of my skill?"

[Yes]

Zynx became excited. He summoned the poison ward and commanded it to use poison on the dead soil, he discovered its poison was stronger than his, shortening the time for corroding.

After 1 hour, they finally created a cylindrical hole with the height of 6 m and diameter of 6 m, then they coated the whole wall of the hole with the layer of frozen poison(like ice) making it slippery.

If his poison had not enhanced, then it would have been difficult but after enhanced it was simple.

Both Zynx and poison ward began to create different appearance and measurement of poison spears and arranged it inside the hole with its tip facing upward. He was certain, if he was to hop inside then the possibility of his death was 90%, even with his poison body.

Zynx then covered the hole with the lid of solid poison followed by black soil and above the soil, he put paralyzed bronze earthworm on it.

Now only thing Zynx required to do was to anticipate for an adult bronze earthworm.

He and poison ward was lurking behind the dead tree and also in camouflage form, so it was impossible to detect them from the direction of the hole.

Even after 15 min, adult earthworm didn't return, so he decided to utilize time by training absolute poison shot.

Zynx and poison ward continuously altered poison into different weaponry like a sword, saber, mace, arrow, spear, etc.

Their body could only hold a limited amount of poison but the production was unlimited, so it was a great way of utilizing poison.

But Zynx displayed disappointment as sharpness was lacking in each weapon, so he decided to try increasing the quantity of poison.

Zynx determined to create spear with a huge amount of poison, both Zynx and poison ward steer their poison at the same place and tried to diminish its appearance, after using poison for more than 1 minute they finally halted.

[Congratulation on obtaining new skill 'Blacksmith']

Zynx became overjoyed, he wanted to know what had they built to be able to gain a new skill, for the first time.

When he glanced at his invention, he saw a razor-sharp spear lying on the ground with a green light in its tip and translucent body, but…

"Mia, why the length of the spear is so tiny?"

The length of the spear was 2 cm with a diameter of 2 mm.

[Because … it is a needle.]
