Chapter 454: 253 Ninth-turn_2
I need to upgrade their strength!”
For Dean McKenzie, upgrading Doggy Two’s strength is not difficult.
There are several methods, such as improving their quality and the quality of their skill.
All of these can enhance their strength, but none of them is quite comprehensive.
“I remember that I have a number of Skill Fusion Enhancement Scrolls in the warehouse, right?
Why not fuse the [Bone Skeleton] and [Dominance Skeleton] together?”
Their strength comes from these two skills, so if the two skills are fused and enhanced, their strength could possibly be increased.
With the mindset of, ‘anyway, it can’t get any worse’, Dean McKenzie pulled out the Skill Fusion Scroll from his inventory and applied it on [Summon Skeleton] and [Dominance Skeleton].
[You have successfully used the Super Skill Fusion Scroll. Your skills [Bone Summoning] and [Dominance Skeleton] have begun to fuse!]
With the system’s prompt, Dean could now feel a force within him, gathering the two skill runes together.
However, this process seemed to be a little rocky. Although the two skills were perfectly compatible, their intensities differed, causing some problems during the fusion.
“Not good!”
Dean’s eyebrows shot up, and almost the second after, the system’s prompt refreshed in front of his eyes.
[Your skill fusion has encountered a problem, the skill fusion is successful, but the quality and level of the skill have declined!]
As this system prompt refreshed, Dean noticed the addition of a fused skill within him, only that the new ability was dim and seemingly fragile.
Almost at the same time, the glow on the skeletons in Dean’s territory dimmed, and their levels started to decrease.
Dean couldn’t help but feel a pang of pain seeing this.
However, when Dean opened up the properties of his post-fusion skill, his eyebrows relaxed: “You’re telling me this is a failure?
I can totally accept this sort of failure!”
A brand new skill appeared in front of Dean’s eyes.
…
Skill: Bone Domination (God)
Level: 1
Effect 1: Summon Bone (Can summon a Bone Creature with an initial level of 140, the level of the Bone Creature can be freely increased up to 250 (Tiny Divine Power Level))
Simultaneous Existence Limit: 5000/50000
Effect 2: Skeleton Enhancement (The skeletons you command passively amplify all attributes 3 times)
Trait: Bone Sublimation (Special)
Undying (SSS-level)
…
Looking at this skill in front of his eyes, the only thought in Dean’s mind was, who the hell said this skill fusion was a failure?
Who the hell said this skill is useless?
Is this even remotely useless?
Well, this might be useless to others, but for Dean, it’s an explosive benefit!
“Doggy Two’s levels decreased to 140, but the silver lining is that this is unexpectedly a blessing in disguise!”
What does this imply?
In Dean’s eyes, it’s essentially a reboot.
Currently, with his level nine talent and Doggy Two’s demigod level template, at level 10 he can assign 1.44 billion attribute points.
A level of 140, that’s 20.16 billion!
140 levels with all attributes at 20.16 billion, what’s this concept?
As long as they upgrade to level 141 at the seventh-turn, their total attributes would be 1 trillion, even considering a 50-fold increase.
After the eighth-turn with another 50-fold increase, this would become 50 trillion. By the ninth-turn, it would be 2,500 trillion total attributes.
This doesn’t even take into account their own.
And 2,500 trillion total attributes, this is already the limit of weak divine power.
But that’s not the limit for Doggy Two and the others! If Dean McKenzie could upgrade their templates to god level, then a level-10 Talent at level-9 would be as much as 144 trillion.
How much of an increase is that?
Ten times!
At that point, Doggy Two and the others, at their ninth-turn, would have a whopping 2.5 quintillion in attributes.
This is outright defiance of the natural order!
Granted, it’s not all excellent news. There’s a hiccup: Doggy Two and the others won’t have a way to level up directly. They will need to grind and build their levels. But this is barely a problem considering the immense benefits which lay before them!
“Let’s get this show on the road! Splash the cash and create a Wraith Army that defies the heavens!”
…
While Dean McKenzie is busy working on upgrading the attributes of Doggy Two and the others, on the other side, in the Abyss World, the King of the Fallen Demons receives news that drives him mad.
“What did you say?”
“Your Majesty, Lady Kavita is seriously wounded for unknown reasons!”
In front of the King of the Fallen Demons, a Charming Demon trembles, cautiously informing him of the news.
“What?!”
Just as these words slipped out, the King’s aura turned even more terrifying.
The Charming Demon standing before him could not withstand the pressure, and spewed out blood.
Unphased, the King of the Fallen Demons surged up, and rushed toward the domain of the Charming Demon using every means possible, even burning his own Source Divine Energy to enhance his speed.
As far as gods are concerned, Source Divine Energy equates to their very foundation. Normally, they wouldn’t even dare touch it. To use it in large quantities like this for quickly traversing, no average person would ever attempt.
Such consumption could lead to a God’s instability.
Who would risk it all, burning Source Divine Energy, just to see a woman?
But, in the case of the King of the Fallen Demons, the woman he was rushing to see was not an ordinary one, but rather the entirety of his life.
Despite being mocked as a notorious bootlicker in the Abyss, no one knew that the King of the Fallen Demons had a reason for his infatuation with Kavita.
As a matter of fact, the King of the Fallen Demons was not aging, and was only around a thousand years old, making him fairly new among deities.
His rise to divinity was largely thanks to Kavita.
Over nine hundred years ago, following his failed bid for the Kingdom, he was betrayed by his kin; nearly perishing, he was at the lowest point of his life. It was Kavita who pulled him up from this pit.
“You’re good. I admire your tenacity. I’ll give you a chance. I hope you survive, become a God, a man worth looking forward to!”
Those were her words to him at the time.
Not only that, Kavita had also left him with a demigod quality artifact, as well as a demigod template.
That marked a turning point in his life and made him the true god he is today.
It was that first encounter that the King of the Fallen Demons had held dearly in his heart all this time.
Over the course of the nearly thousand years, his feelings for Kavita had transcended all else.
That was why, upon hearing that Kavita was critically injured, he spared no effort or cost to rush to her side.
But when he once again stood before Kavita, he was stunned.
It wasn’t solely because Kavita was not injured, but also because he had clearly sensed the aura of another man on her. It was an aura of unity and mutual life-and-death bond.
The King of the Fallen Demons knew, this was one of Kavita’s talents.
He also knew the effects of Kavita’s talent – her life was linked with the other person’s. If one died, so did the other; if Kavita died, the other person could obtain everything she had.
Spirit Power, attributes, lifespan, godhood, everything would be transferred.
This was a grossly unequal talent, and the King of the Fallen Demons never imagined that Kavita would use it.
Upon looking at Kavita, the King of the Fallen Demons couldn’t help but shed tears.
“Are you resenting me for not choosing you?”
“No, I resent myself for not being strong or outstanding enough, whereas you have given up on me; But I am also happy for you, it appears that you’ve found the one you’ve been looking for!”
Kavita was somewhat surprised by the King of the Fallen Demons’ reaction.
He responded, however, with a grin. “I knew a long time ago that you were never mine, and moreover, I never dared to harbour the extravagant hope of possessing you. Because that’s not love, true love is not about possession, but letting go.
Rest assured, I won’t stand in your way. On the contrary, whatever you do, I’ll always be your unwavering support!”
