Wizard starting from shoeing donkeys-Chapter 608 - 253: Turnaround (Two-in-One Mega - )
Having finished off Garnis, Rein swung his heavy hammer in a backhanded motion, smashing it onto the venomous sea serpent that was biting him, instantly causing the serpent's eyes to glaze over with dizziness and collapse on the spot.
Rein then managed to extricate himself from the gaping maw of the venomous sea serpent.
However, by that time, the extremely potent poison of the sea serpent had begun to take effect, and Rein could distinctly feel bouts of dizziness assaulting his brain.
Fortunately, Rein possessed the core skill of a Deadly Poison Master, 'Poison Resistant Constitution (Passive).' Otherwise, he might have fainted by now and died of poisoning in short order.
But the moment the venomous sea serpent had sprung from the water beside him, Rein had already thought of a way to deal with the problem.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have risked getting bitten by the venomous sea serpent to hammer the four-armed female Naga to death.
But now it was time to deal with it immediately, without any further delay.
Rein grabbed the head of the dazed venomous sea serpent in front of him and swiftly placed his hand on the massive head of the serpent, instantly employing the Beast Priest's signature skill—'Beastly Vitality.'
Immediately, a surging and undulating warm current flowed from within the large, ferocious venomous sea serpent into Rein's body.
This warm current had the effects of restoring energy and healing wounds and brought with it a sensation of comfort several times greater than that felt when soaking in a hot spring while fatigued.
Rein squinted his eyes, feeling the warm current rapidly circulating within his body, constantly battling against the poison's damage!
On one side was destruction, and on the other was repair!
Since the life force of a large, ferocious beast was incredibly strong, although Rein could only absorb up to thirty percent of the total life force of the venomous sea serpent, that still exceeded the total life force of an average Great Knight.
Soon, the poison could no longer withstand the warm current and began to slowly recede.
The remaining life force rapidly healed the numerous wounds on Rein's body, inflicted by Garnis's four weapons.
A few seconds later, when Rein stood up again, he was full of vigor, and his injuries had mostly recovered.
Had it not been for the majority of the warm current being used to offset the damage from the poison, his wounds could have completely healed by now, but even so, it wasn't far off.

Indeed, Legendary classes are extraordinary!
The core skill of Beast Priest, 'Beastly Vitality,' is comparable to a divine ability, not only restoring energy but also healing wounds.
This time, Rein counteracted the venomous serpent's poison with his exceptionally high poison resistance, coupled with the life force he drained from it.
Rein looked down.
The venomous sea serpent was still alive but lay there listlessly, incapacitated and gasping for breath after being hit in the head with a hammer and having a significant amount of life force extracted; it could no longer move.
But Rein was not a merciful person, and immediately sent out a 'Shockwave,' making an opening in the sea serpent's spiritual cover, letting it follow in the footsteps of the female four-armed Naga...
Master and servant, naturally tidied up together!
After the venomous sea serpent died, Rein could faintly hear a hissing noise near his ears, like a giant serpent flicking its tongue, subtly disturbing his mind.
Rein knew this was a side effect of using 'Beastly Vitality,' but if deployed only once in a short period, the effects were negligible.
In a few hours, the influence of the beast's spirit would dissipate naturally.
Furthermore, since he was at the other end of the hall, far away from Alyosha and the others, in the dim environment, they could at most make out that he had bent down, likely mistaking his actions as searching for spoils of war and not realizing he had used some strange power to heal his injuries.
Without hesitation, Rein turned to rescue Alyosha and the other imperial colleagues who were also hanging.
However, just as he was turning around, Rein suddenly discovered.
Not far ahead of him was a long corridor of bluestone walls extending deep into the cave, and roughly a hundred meters away, there was an almost transparent, faintly glowing blue membrane.
This membrane seemed to insulate sound!
Otherwise, Rein's two exceedingly loud 'Roaring Battle Crys' would have definitely carried over there.
Moved by curiosity, Rein immediately squinted, focusing his gaze.
With the dim lighting, it was fortunate that Rein had Dark Vision, enabling him to peer through the membrane and clearly see that there was another hall inside, with the same style and materials as this one.
What shocked Rein was that at the far end of that hall appeared to be a bronze metal gate several tens of meters high, seemingly adorned with intricate patterns and designs.
Were those designs shells and conchs?
In front of the metal gate was an altar with an unknown purpose.
Around the altar stood a brazier at each corner, burning some sort of pale green flame, and in the middle was a seven or eight-meter-tall statue of a stone multi-armed Naga.
To Rein's surprise, those busy around the altar were humans, not fishmen or Blood Curse Nagas.
Moreover, these humans' robes were embroidered with strange marine life designs such as hundred-eyed sea stars, giant thorned squids, and other ferocious sea beasts...
"Could this be the attire of the Sea God Sect?"
Rein recalled the general education courses he had taken, where the instructors had taught several typical Cult attire styles.
But then, Rein's ears twitched, as he heard noises of commotion and combat growing louder behind him.
