The Ultimate Evolution

Chapter 754: Steelclaw

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

A gentle yellow glow sparkled out from the 'Mosquito Amber'. The mosquito lodged inside appeared remarkably true to life as though it was capable of flying away. One could faintly notice a sliver or dark red at its stomach.

After traversing the gap of millions of years, it appeared like it was still alive before the gang.

A strong sense of reverence welled up in Sheyan's heart, not a reverence for the mosquito in the amber, but the boundlessness and mercilessness of fate and time.

Time was indeed merciless. Yet fate, even after persevering for millions of years, still gave birth to life!

However, after obtaining the 'Mosquito Amber', Zi suddenly turned away. Her slender shoulders undulated slightly as faint sniffles could be heard.

Everyone present understood the ordeal she had experienced. They entered this world as a large party striving for the 'Mosquito Amber', yet when she finally acquired it, she was left all alone.

Grievances and hate; betrayals and deaths; Blade lights and sword shadows; all of it accumulated in Zi, a single woman bearing the weight of such crushing pressure. The humiliation and grievance in her heart, congealing into beads of tears that rolled down.

While Zi was accomplishing her mission, Sheyan was browsing through Hammond's office and incidentally discovered a complete 3D map of his underground laboratory.

After examining it, he realized that Hammond had indeed adopted a mentality of breaking the cauldrons and sinking the boats. There was only one entrance to this lab without a single escape route. This map would still be of use if Sheyan had obtained it prior to entering the underground laboratory, yet now, it was utterly obsolete.

Without courtesy, Brother Black and Reef activated the dark-gold key and summoned a treasure chest.

First, they obtained 100,000 utility points.

Then, it was Brother Black's turn to draw an equipment. He reached his hand in and fished out a resplendent dark-gold radiance. It was a ball of radiance…

A horcrux!

The horcrux of Hammond's son was unexpected drawn.

[ Aberration Horcrux (rare) ]

[ Item rarity: Dark-gold ]

[ Usage effect: Usable on horcrux compatible weapon/equipment. Transforms into an equipment soul that raises the weapon/equipment's grade ]

[ Warning: If the horcrux is not compatible with equipment, horcrux will break ]

[ Material: Spirit ]

[ Weight: 12 g ]

[ Description: A beast soul forged from a gruesome and maniacal method. A previous body of a hybrid between dinosaur and man, which explains its similarly warped soul ]

[ Description: When death plundered its flesh, its hideous and warped soul was separated. This horcrux leans towards the human side, inheriting Doctor Hammonds's madness while inheriting his wisdom… ]

Frankly speaking, a dark-gold grade horcrux should be worth less than a dark-gold grade equipment. But considering the way the contestants eliminated Hammond's son, it was pretty reasonable. The crazy beast was only killed due to them exploiting the high voltage electric shock and the 'Gene-destruct Compound'. Hence, such spoils of war were only right and proper.

Following that, a silver storyline grade weapon surfaced.

[ Steelclaw ]

[ Weapon type: Claw/sword (if you possess the relevant passive ability to enhance claw/sword weapons, it will be effective on this weapon) ]

[ Origin: Jurassic Park World ]

[ Equipment rarity: Silver Storyline ]

[ Equipment condition: Exceptional ]

[ Material: Chitin + Titanium + Dried tissues + Mitochondrion]

[ Addons: Handle ]

[ Weight: 20.4 kg ]

[ Usage requirement: Strength 50 points, agility 20 points, physique 60 points ]

[ Durability: 10/10 ]

[ Property: Damage 80 - 140 ]

[ Property: Acute - This is a natural weapon born from a fearsome beast of unrivalled might. When attacking an enemy, it will neglect 10 points of defence and transfer these defence points to yourself. Effect disappears after leaving combat state ]

[ Property: Cutter - The brutality and madness of this weapon will infect you. When dealing damage to your enemy (includes abilities), the enemy will be stung by fear, receiving 50 damage and 30% of this attack as blood loss damage within 5 seconds ]

[ Property: Extreme Hardness - This is an incomparably solid weapon. You can use it to block incoming attacks and significantly boost your chance of blocking. Boost blocking rate by 33% ]

[ Detail: Weapon's durability declining rate decreases by 200% ]

[ Property: Rare - a powerful weapon crafted with precious rare materials. It will be much more expensive to repair this weapon! Each time of repair in the realm will cost 1000% of normal prices and extra achievement points ]

[ Ability: Aberration - The soul of this weapon will turn crazy upon activating this ability. Your strength will be boosted for the slaughter but causes you to receive a grave trauma. When dealing damage to enemy, 50% chance of dealing 1 - 200 points of true damage but similarly receiving 1 - 200 points of true damage ]

[ Detail: The full potential of this ability can only be displayed with the 'Claw Weapon Fluency' basic ability ]

[ Description: Place this weapon near your eyes. You will hear the grievous roars of a trapped but powerful aberrant soul! ]

The properties of this weapon were undoubtedly a jack of all trades; combining offense, defense, negative property and positive property in one. Most importantly, was its property to greatly strengthen one's blocking capability!

To Reef who uses a shield, that was obviously an incredibly rare and compatible property. Bear this in mind, a dark-blue grade weapon that could enhance block chance by 5% could already fetch a valuable price. This 'Steelclaw' offered a block enhancement of 33%!

This property alone could at least raise Reef's chances of minimizing damage by over 15%, what more it could absorb 10 points of defense and transfer it to himself?

Furthermore, it required 50 points of strength and 60 points of physique to use. At present, only Reef was capable of using it.

Of course, Reef was exceedingly delighted to obtain this new weapon. Strictly speaking, this silver storyline grade weapon from a tier-7 legendary creature could already be considered top grade. Nevertheless, its flaw was that it didn't enhance any basic attributes.

In Sheyan's perspective, he definitely felt a little dejected while seeing his party members receiving new equipments repeatedly. However, he already possessed a peak rank 'S' ability and a terribly invincible innate ability. This was more than enough of a foundation for him.

Regardless of how high a building towers or how beautifully designed it was, without an adequate foundation, it would still be a mere illusory mirage.

Furthermore, everything he had so far, was all created from his own hands.

Presently, Sheyan also accumulated a total of 16 free attribute points! His pure basic strength was at 32 points!!

This meant that with another 2 free attribute points, his would attain his primary goal; to reach the boundary breakthrough of 50 pure strength points!

Of course, when that happens, Sheyan would naturally meet with a tremendous challenge. The chasm between the realms of a basic contestant and a Growth-Hunter, one that Reef failed to pass!

Presently, Sheyan could roughly infer this.

Why was it that individuals that clearly weren't Reef's match could succeed the boundary test while Reef couldn't? The realm wasn't one to favour or discriminate individuals. This clearly showed that the test may be related with one's psychological quality. As for Sheyan, he never felt a deficiency in that aspect.

Of course, Sheyan didn't believe he understood all things clearly. Besides, the unknown future held lots of variations, and perhaps, an official MT upgrade was harder? Perhaps, one's innate ability determined the test classification as well? These were factors that may very well occur.

Still, he was exceptionally clear on one fact - "As long as others have passed it, then I can definitely pass it!"

He never felt that he would lose to others.

This was Sheyan's arrogance and his own confidence!

Consecutively, after Zi completed her mission, Sheyan received a notification from his nightmare imprint.

[ Will of Growth-Hunter no.89912 (deceased) is effected: Growth-Hunter no.4421 has completed her main mission and can return to the realm anytime. After returning to the nightmare realm, you can randomly draw an equipment, item, achievement points, or utility points from Growth-Hunter no.89912 as your inheritance ]

According to conventional practice, the maximum buffer that realm would present after Zi completed her main mission, was half an hour. She could return anytime in this half-hour or be forcibly transported once time was up.

Once Zi chooses to return, the trio would be forcibly transported as well.
