Chapter 36: The Ability That He Couldn’t Take, Decomposition, Fusion, And Upgrading
Earl Vienna knew that it was his fault, so he did not say anything.
Holder asked again, “What exactly is it? Tell me about it so that I can be prepared.”
He was curious about that huge monstrous shadow too.
Earl Vienna shook his head and said in a low voice, “Would you believe me if I say I don’t know?”
“How can that be? Didn’t you chase after them?” Holder thought of a possibility and was frightened by the idea. He gasped. “Hiss, you didn’t manage to chase after them, did you?”
Earl Vienna nodded helplessly. “Even you are so surprised. How would I dare to tell others this news? But old friend, you must keep the secret for me. No one should know.”
“Don’t worry, I understand.” Holder nodded. He also felt that this news was too scary. He paused for a moment and asked, “The monsters that appeared in the fortress?”
Earl Vienna nodded. “It has something to do with that monstrous shadow, but I don’t know how he made it, but there is also good news.”
Speaking of this, Earl Vienna stopped and looked at Holder.
Holder did not ask, as if he was angry. The room was silent.
A few minutes later, Holder was the first to lose. He said unhappily, “You liked to do that since you were young! Why don’t you change when you are old? Tell me!”
Earl Vienna smiled in satisfaction, happier than a gambler who won 100,000 gold coins. “The good news is that I have found out the origin of those monsters. They were not monsters before that, but animals that are evolved forcefully.”
Holder frowned. “How is this good news?”
Earl Vienna said with a smile, “I have ordered the expulsion of all the animals in the fortress. Not a single mouse will stay in here after dawn. This way, no more animals will be forced to evolve into monsters.”
Holder was silent. Then, he directly entered his shadow and disappeared from the room with a flash of spiritual energy.
Earl Vienna was not surprised at all. He slowly walked to the window and gazed at the military camp in the distance with a smile on his face. It seemed that the distance was not enough to stop the Earl. He saw the situation in the military camp.
Holder appeared in the military camp three seconds later. Then, he waved his arms and called a group of people… to catch rats!
The smile on Earl Vienna’s face grew brighter and brighter. That was the reason he asked Holder to stay. Of course, it was not to talk about the past. He was in charge of the matters in the fortress, and the military camp was also an important place. He could not be careless. Holder had to protect it.
..
William was still sitting cross-legged on the ground. There was too little information that he knew. He could not conclude anything. He only had a hunch that the monster in the fortress had something to do with the giant monstrous shadow. Moreover, the system had also hinted that the gopher monster had an unknown evil aura on it, which meant that a mastermind was behind everything.
William even included the group of Vengeful Wraiths he met when he returned to the fortress because the system had given him the information that the Vengeful Wraiths had been driven away by the race. All of these events revealed the scent of a conspiracy.
Not only that, just the evil aura alone could contaminate a powerful and strange gopher, and it even allowed it to appear in the fortress. The existence that could do such a thing was terrifying. William could not even think of what kind of strength was needed to be able to do this.
“What a dangerous world.”
William, who was happy because he had obtained the concept was a little worried at the moment when he thought of that.
However, he was not too worried. After all, there would be someone to protect them even if things got worse. Moreover, he had the Stealing System. His ability would grow in a short period if he had enough time.
Then, he began to investigate his next Endowed Supernatural Ability.
[ Steel Fur ]
William almost laughed out loud upon seeing that name. Fur? Steel? Could it be the fur of that gopher monster?
Although it was powerful, and could even extinguish the Dragon Breath, William felt a chill when he thought of that black, dense, and sharp fur. That ability! Not what he wanted!
He even thought of the strange gazes cast by his classmates when a body full of long black fur stuck out of his sleeves.
It was too scary!
William continued to read after taking a deep breath and calming himself down. Although he did not want it, he was fine to read it.
[ Steel Fur (B-Class): Mutated ability. The body of a gopher monster changes after it is enveloped in the ancient evil aura. It has a powerful defensive ability. It devours a large amount of human flesh and blood. It can once again increase its defensive ability and is not afraid of water and fire.]
[Moreover, it can use up its own life to obtain a temporary powerful defensive ability.]
[Note: Please note that it contains an unknown and ancient evil aura. Choose whether to make it permanent carefully. ]
William felt a little uncomfortable.
It was not easy to kill an Earth Rank mutated gopher.
He had obtained two strange Endowed Supernatural Ability, and one of them was B-Class.
William wouldn’t be willing to give up ability with such a level. But, the system had warned that he had to choose carefully to make it permanent.
Didn’t that mean that it was reminding him not to choose it?
“Sigh, it’s too evil after all. I wouldn’t be able to devour human flesh just for an ability, even if I don’t consider that evil aura.”
It wasn’t that William was a saint. They could kill as many people as they wanted if they were in a land of life and death, and it would be either one of them to live. But he still had psychological trauma on eating human flesh.
“System, I don’t want to make it permanent. What did you say about the ability that’s not made permanent last time?”
Previously, William did not choose to make the [Breath of Resentment] permanent the last time. However, something happened before he could finish listening to the system’s advice. Later, the [ Breath of Resentment ] fused with [ Poison Immunity ] physique and synthesized into [ Walking Poison Doctor ].
It was somewhat useful. Although there was only one paralyzing poison at the moment, the stronger [ Walking Poison Doctor ] would be in the future as the poison he absorbed increases. He would be able to kill the opponent without even needing to attack.
The system said that the Endowed Supernatural Ability would not disappear even if it were not made permanent.
“Ding! An Endowed Supernatural Ability that was not made permanent can be decomposed and turned into its most origin energy to upgrade any permanent Endowed Supernatural Ability.”
The system’s cold voice sounded in William’s mind.
William excitedly waved his fist when he heard that.
“The same Endowed Supernatural Ability is needed to upgrade before. Now I only need to decompose to upgrade. That is great!”
William directly chose to decompose it and added it to the Ancient Dragon God Bloodline after saying that.
That was his most powerful Endowed Supernatural Ability. Although it was a Bloodline Category, it was an SS-Class Endowed Supernatural Ability. Moreover, the Bloodline Category Endowed Supernatural Ability would experience an all-around increase in speed, strength, and defense once it was upgraded. Besides, it had the unique Dragon Breath and powerful life force of the Ancient Dragon God Bloodline.
