NOVEL NEXT Chapter 18: Evolution! Again
Ummmm well
As I absorb the Wyrm, I observe the differences of the various potential evolutions
Great Sage, can you tell me what the characteristics of the evolutions I have are?
Following the evolutionary line of its predecessor Slime Chimera, it specializes in the composition of parts of individuals of different species.
Gains resistance to the primary elements (Water, Earth, Air, Fire) and gives an increase to the attack of these same elements (does not grant benefits to elements other than these
Well…
The answer seems pretty obvious
I only gain resistance to one…
And considering that I already have cancels towards two of them, it doesn't seem like the smartest option to choose them
So I decide!
But before that I must finish absorbing this
Thanks for the skills [Conquest]
Now to evolve!
I quickly head to where I left my egg, in the meantime I remember that normally evolving requires food…
I hunt a kind of fire eel and bring it to my base
Shortly after this I mentally prepare myself
And…
This time I didn't lose consciousness, luckily
<[Devour LV1] skill has been integrated into [Devour LV9]>
Ughh
Yeah, whatever
Wait
How were the restrictions released?
"The [Great Sage] skill now has its access to information restored thanks to the reincorporation of [All Creation], however, it is limited to this world
"The [Predator] skill has its original functions restored, with some new ones added"
What were those original functions?
[Predation]: Absorbs the target into its body. Valid targets include, but are not limited to: inorganic matter, organic matter, skill effects, and magic.
[Analysis]: The absorbed target is studied and analyzed. If the skill or magic analysis is successful, the same technique can be acquired.
[Stomach]: A space in which things are analyzed for absorption.
[Mimicry]: Replicates the form and racial characteristics of an analyzed target, with capabilities equal to or greater than the original.
[Isolation]: Harmful or unnecessary materials can be stored for analysis. They will be used to replace magical energy.
Wait, didn't I have those abilities at the beginning?
"Yeah."
Why the hell couldn't I use them at the beginning, that would have saved me a lot of trouble?
"It's not!"
A shiver ran through my body again
Ughh
Damn I can't complain, literally!
So… I guess it's okay
But… if for example I absorbed the Egg wouldn't it be with me forever without anything happening to it until it hatches?
"The egg would be safe, when it hatched first the serious user would be notified by the system of its hatching"
That… would be really useful
Ugh my yellow bar (SP) is really low
I need to eat
Yum
Yum
Huh?
Now what did I do?
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Outside the labyrinth a rumor had been established
They said that a demon had emerged from the Great Labyrinth of Elroe
More monstrous than any other recorded to date, it was said that its favorite prey was humans
Some said that they were mere rumors
That was until the crown announced that they would finance an excursion to finish off such a monster
Chaos broke out as soon as it was known that there was a monster of such magnitude in the labyrinth
That resulted in the adventurers deciding to wait for it to be exterminated before entering the labyrinth again
That caused a massive increase in the monster population…
Which caused several accidents
People began to nickname that monster in many ways such as
"Demon of the Labyrinth", "Aberration of the Labyrinth" but the most famous was…
"Calamity of the Labyrinth"
After all after its supposed appearance there were many accidents, from droughts to an increase in monsters…
