Chapter 72 - Fusion of Superpowers
Chapter 72: Fusion of Superpowers
Vincent and his team set off. About 20 minutes later, a monster with a bull’s head, a snake’s tail, and long wings suddenly appeared.
“Double-winged Bull Snake!”
Double-winged Bull Snake was a high-level monster. It could fly and attack its enemies using sound waves. Its body was soft, and its defense was strong.
Chris had an excited look on his face. He immediately transformed into a Lightning Eagle.
However, the Lightning Eagle that he transformed into was different from the one Vincent encountered previously. There was a clump of golden feathers between his brows.
Chris’s Lightning Eagle was a high-level monster.
Chris raised his head and let out a cry before charging towards the Double-winged Bull Snake.
Vincent wanted to stop Chris, but Chris had already started a fight with the Double-winged Bull Snake.
“Nabil, status buff!” yelled Vincent.
Vincent had no choice but to quickly arrange his team’s battle position.
Five minutes later, the Double-winged Bull Snake cried out and fell to the ground.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully killing a high-level monster, Double-winged Bull Snake. You have obtained a superpower fusion gem.”
“Do you wish to use it?”
A superpower fusion gem?
What was this?
Vincent was stunned after hearing the system’s notification. This was the first time he had killed a monster in a black hole. He did not expect to receive a special reward for it.
At the same time, he was also very curious about what a superpower fusion gem was.
He opened his backpack and saw a hexagonal prismatic rainbow gem.
Superpower fusion gem allowed a user to fuse two superpowers of the same level into a higher level superpower whilst retaining the characteristics of the two superpowers.
A higher-level superpower?
Does this mean that if one fused two S-Class superpowers, they could create a higher-level superpower?
Vincent had previously put in a lot of effort to obtain a superpower upgrade gem. The superpower upgrade gem allowed him to upgrade Hellfire to S + Class.
However, the current superpower fusion gem could fuse two of his superpowers and upgrade them to a higher level superpower whilst maintaining their characteristics.
This was simply too abnormal.
Vincent was excited to use it.
He asked his team to wait for him. He then wrapped himself up using Hellfire. Once again, he transformed into a giant egg that was burning with black flames.
“Use the superpower fusion gem!”
“Please choose the superpowers that you want to fuse.”
“Hellfire and Monster Affinity.”
It was a simple decision for Vincent. After all, Monster Affinity was the most useless superpower he had at that moment. This was because he could not use it in public with everyone around. If he fused it with Hellfire, his superpower would definitely become stronger.
Perhaps he could even complete the conjecture that he had never completed.
The ability to mimic monsters!
Vincent wanted to see if he could mimic monsters using Hellfire.
This would not only allow him to gain more powerful combat skills but to also free him from just learning combat skills. He would also be able to explore other aspects as well.
‘Ding! Both superpowers are not of the same level. They are not able to be fused! Host, please choose the superpowers that you want to fuse.’
The system had destroyed his idea of fusing the two superpowers.
This was all because he had upgraded Hellfire.
Vincent pondered.
Should he wait until he received another superpower upgrade gem and upgrade Monster Affinity? Or should he just fuse the other superpowers?
After thinking about it, Vincent decided to fuse his remaining superpowers.
There were two reasons for his decision.
Firstly, he did not know when he would be able to obtain another superpower upgrade gem. This would result in an indefinite delay of the fusion.
Secondly, he was very curious about the superpower that he would obtain after fusing his two S-Class superpowers.
“Extreme Speed Training and Peak Condition.”
“Ding! Fusing in progress, please wait a moment…”
“Ding! Fusion complete! Congratulations to host for awakening an X-Class special superpower, Godly King’s Posture.”
“Godly King’s Posture is a passive superpower. It cannot be used on its own initiative. The host can maintain the highest cultivation speed at all times and possess an undying body.”
“Holy sh*t! Undying body!”
Vincent’s eyes widened in shock.
Vincent understood the benefit of having the highest cultivation speed at all times.
Previously, when he was not training, he would be at Level One.
When he did train, he would be at Level Two.
However, as he had obtained the highest cultivation speed benefit, he would be at Level Two even if he did not train.
If he did train, he would start off at Level Four instead.
Although it may not seem like he had increased much, it was actually a difference of four times.
When Vincent emerged from the huge egg, Chris and the others were shocked.
Vincent was like a different person.
There was not much change in his appearance, but his aura was very different from before.
His entire person looked imposing even though he was not angry. He gave off an extremely strong sense of oppression.
Chris could feel a burning sensation in his eyes and a strong sense of offense in his heart when he looked at Vincent.
“Vincent! Vincent!” shouted Angelina.
“You! You leveled up again?”
Vincent’s sudden change made Angelina subconsciously use honorifics when speaking to him.
The others were the same. They looked at Vincent and did not dare to make a sound.
Vincent just smiled faintly.
“I didn’t level up, I just had some epiphanies. Let’s go.”
“Alright!”
The four of them agreed with Vincent. They acted as if they were being guided by a god.
On the other side, Louis and Pujstark had entered the territory of the Soul Eater Rats by mistake. Countless Soul Eater Rats surrounded three hundred of them and started attacking.
Soul Eater Rats were intermediate-level monsters. They appeared in groups and were very fast. Their attack and defense were not high. Every attack would cause damage to the soul. However, the damage was low.
Louis and his team did not know how they had mistakenly entered the territory of the Soul Eater Rats. Everyone was in despair after seeing the Soul Eater Rats. There were so many of them. The Soul Eater Rats did not hold back and started attacking. They did not take into consideration life or death.
In just half an hour, more than fifty people had died.
Even elites like Louis and Pujstark were exhausted after fighting them.
“Students of Mokissner! Attack the Soul Eater Rats with all your strength. Find an opening and send everyone out!”
Pujstark looked at the exhausted crowd. He knew that if this dragged on, they would all die. He planned to sacrifice the students from Mokissner School so that more people could survive.
Everyone knew what Pujstark was planning. Their expressions changed.
“Pujstark! No! We can definitely rush out. The distress signal has already been sent out. We just need to hold on a little longer!”
The light in Louis’s eyes grew brighter. He quickly stopped Pujstark.
They all came to the black hole because of him. He had to bear a lot of responsibility for causing their deaths.
If the students of Mokissner died as well, then he would be a sinner of humanity. This was not something he could live with.
In just a short period of time, more than ten people had lost their lives to the Soul Eater Rats.
After seeing the situation getting worse and worse, Pujstark no longer held back and unleashed all his power.
Brandy did the same. He stood at the front and used Space Strangle. All the Soul Eater Rats that charged at him were ground into minced meat.
The other three students did the same as well. They protected the remaining three corners steadily.
Five of them used up all their superpower and the pressure on the other students reduced greatly. However, in just a few minutes, the five of them were already exhausted.
The four students from St. John looked at Louis. They were waiting for him to give the order.
As St. John’s students, they felt that it was the right time to step forward.
However, Louis did not give any orders.
Bang!
Brandy’s psionic power was exhausted, and his Space Strangle shattered. The Soul Eater Rats pounced on him and killed him in an instant.
The students of Mokissner had lost one of their team members.
Due to this incident, many people were not able to react in time. This caused a large number of Soul Eater Rats to rush into the defensive circle. More than a dozen people died.
The other students from Mokissner also exhausted their psionic power. They died one after another. They were all eaten by the Soul Eater Rats.
Louis was still watching from afar. He did not seem like he wanted to give any orders.
The other four students from St. John were anxious. In the end, they decided not to wait for Louis’s order and begin attacking.
However, just as they were about to use their superpowers to launch an attack, they felt a sharp pain in their bodies.
Some of their heads were smashed into pieces, while others were sliced into half by their heavy swords.
Their deaths were miserable.
“Louis! What are you doing?”
