Reborn as God: The strongest system

Guys please help out with power stones, the WPC competition is about to end and I need ALL OF YOUR HELP!

The bone javelins thrown by Esdras were extremely powerful, it can be said that even an orc would be killed in one shot.

Not just that, it was very likely that the body would be broken horribly with that impact. Right now Esdras was stronger that Calvin, who gave his breathing technique generously.

And yet, the ghoul was barely injured when he was hit by two consecutive strikes.

It recovered immediately and fixed its yellow lantern-like eyes on Esdras and inhaled deeply, so deeply that it's whole torso bloated like a frog.

Esdras felt a chill in the air, he threw two more javelins to disrupt whatever the ghoul was trying to do but it tanked the hits.

The swamp terrain hindered his movement and made it much harder to dodge, unlike the ghoul who was like a fish in the sea.

And then it opened it's mouth and shot several balls of green mush at an incredibly high speed.

Esdras was already prepared since his attempt failed he dodged the first few shots but he was still hit once. Surprisingly he didn't feel much damage, it did hurt but…

[Ding! Poison resistance status in effect, when the bar is full you will be unable to resist the effects of the poison and succumb to disease.]

Shit, so that's what it was, this was the [Putrid shot] skill he saw. As a Vigor knight with a Physique grade of 4, he had the ability to resist weak poisons for a short while.

But the poison bar was already half full, if he was shot two more times then his resistance will fail and the poison will take effect.

Esdras had no choice but to take the fight to close combat.

He didn't waste any time putting his thoughts into action, going into a sprint he brandished his sword at the same time.

The ghoul may have predicted his move as it fired two more shots at him before it returned to regular size.

Esdras countered by waiting until the last moment and then jumped in the air two meters high, and performing a plunge attack.

The ghoul still didn't recover completely after using that skill, perhaps it thought that Esdras would dodge to the left or right, maybe even slow down to block.

But Esdras had no intention of giving it any time to recover, he channeled his vigor in this attack.

The ghoul wasn't prepared but it still used both of its hands to block and redirected the attack from the head to the chest.

The plunge from the air and the Vigor gave the attack and explosive power as it drilled a hole in the torso of the ghoul.

However, the ghoul did not beat an eyelid as it tried to bite him, surprised by this Esdras took a step back only to get kicked.

The ghoul twisted it's body in a way that no human could and actually allowed the sword plunged into it to tear into it more.

Esdras held his kidney and grimaced, he aimed for the head in beginning because he thought something like this might happen. It was an undead after all.

No matter, Esdras took off his shirt, rolled it into a ball and forcefully gaged the ghoul, then broke both of it's arms and legs which was much harder than he thought.

As long as the monster was plastered to the ground thanks to his sword he had the time to do what must be done.

"You're an undead huh? You think your so tough!"

With that roar he started punching the head of the ghoul repeatedly, the most annoying part was that the ghoul didn't seem to feel pain, it was just continuously struggling.

After a while Esdras looked at his knuckles in disbelief, they were starting to bleed and this thing was still alive and kicking.

It was because of [Iron body] since the beginning of the battle it was this skill that caused him so much trouble as it amplified the toughness of the ghoul's body.

Originally, the plunge attack infused with vigor would have been enough to absolutely crush the ghoul without a problem.

Esdras thought about what to do and a moment later he, stood up and pulled his sword out. The ghoul struggled but it couldn't get up.

….he should have done this from the start.

He struck the head experimentally and sighed after he saw the result, it only left a shallow wound. He channeled vigor and destroyed the head of the ghoul.

It could have been easier if he had a blunt weapon, but this is life, things don't always work out in the most ideal way.

The swamp around him started dissipating like a mirage that never really existed. The place now looked like a very big audience hall, only completely empty.

Save for a door and a treasure chest glowing with light in the center of the room. He went over to the chest and the light condensed on his left hand.

[Ding! You have successfully cleared the first floor of the Rust Fang dungeon, you are granted the mark of the dungeon.]

[Ding! You have fulfilled the conditions to leave the dungeon. As a Pioneer you have been granted more knowledge regarding the dungeon.]

[Mark of the dungeon: with this mark you will be able to enter the dungeon again as long as you are with in 20 meters of the dungeon whose mark you have.]

He opened the chest after reading the notifications.

[Badge of Rangers: an uncommon grade magic item, it has the ability to shoot ten arrows. The arrows could be infused with attributes if used by a ranger.]

The giant door leads to the second floor, besides the door was a purple swirling vortex of light, this was his way back.

Esdras look at the mark of the dungeon on his left hand and confidently walked through the purple vortex.

He would return to the dungeon but there was preparations to be done and some people to deal with…

His eyes were as sharp as swords.
