[Unique target eliminated: Heretic. The system has added the combat skill "Venom" to your skill list.]
Only when the system displayed the kill notification did Yu Xiao finally stop exerting force and pull the purple blade out of the Ghost King's reactor.
[Skill Name: Venom] [Skill Level: 1] [Skill Description: Temporarily coats a melee weapon with the poison secreted by Heretics. After the weapon hits a target, it leaves a poison value that lasts for 180 seconds. When the poison value reaches 100%, it triggers an unavoidable poison explosion against the target.] [Note: Each hit refreshes the poison value's duration. The amount accumulated depends on how much damage the attack deals to the target and the target's resistance to poison. The same rules also apply to the damage caused by the poison explosion.]
After reading the skill description, Yu Xiao tried using the skill.
A layer of dark green poison immediately appeared on the purple blade, as if the poison were being secreted directly from the blade itself.
"Each application only lasts thirty seconds, and the cooldown is fixed at one minute. The coated weapon won't be corroded by the poison, but it can only be applied to melee weapons—not to any other body part or piece of equipment..." Yu Xiao was a little disappointed that the poison couldn't be applied to bullets. "The poison can currently deal effective damage to level-four monsters, and leveling up the skill will increase its damage."
Once he had learned the details of the skill, Yu Xiao decided to retrieve his battle-axe first, taking the blade with him.
After walking for nearly five minutes, Yu Xiao found his axe embedded in a sunken rock wall. If that blow had hit the Ghost King, the battle would probably have ended much
