Evan shot through the inner areas of the forest like a raging storm, and as he did, he left behind a long trail of corpses of every kind and species.
At this point, he no longer knew how many beasts he had killed. Most of them had been relatively weak, with only a few exceptions that he managed to eliminate after a few seconds of combat, ultimately earning an amount of ESS that had already surpassed 100,000.
Evan used Life Force to double his ESS gains, but his clones didn't do the same. After finishing their battles, they left Shadow's summons to take care of collecting the beasts' cores.
And so, in little more than ten minutes, he had slaughtered a large portion of the beasts that made up the beast tide.
'It seems those stronger ones, unlike the others, are also moving deeper into the forest,' he thought after encountering several C-Rank beasts that, although clearly on alert, seemed drawn toward something within the forest.
