Undying Warlord

[The host has paid the transfer fee for the Artifact of Traction. 10,000,000,000 Essence Points have been deducted!]

Dilan nodded his head in satisfaction. His body had been subjected to extreme wear and tear and he could hardly move a muscle but he managed to pay for the transfer fee of the Artifact of Traction.

There was not much time left on the abyss-difficulty advancement mission but that was something Dilan was quite thankful for.

Until he would be teleported back to the Sanctum of the Old Vampire Lord in 30 minutes, Dilan had still a few things to do.

However, his remaining strength didn’t allow him to move around as much as before.

The last 24 hours had drained him more than anything and his memories of that time were also quite blurry.

He only recalled the tremendous power he had felt the whole time.

It was addictive and something he wanted to feel again. However, right now, his stats had already decreased drastically because Xealtron was stored in his storage ring and his Health had been replenished.

It was only his mind that was begging for rest, and his Stamina that hit 0 more often during the last 24 hours than he wanted to acknowledge.

Protecting the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity had been a lot more difficult and a herculean task than he had expected but it had worked out, somehow.

Dilan was pretty satisfied with his own achievements, which was also why he ignored the additional messages he had received after paying the transfer fee for the Artifact of Traction.

He could tell that the Artifact of Traction was currently fusing with his Origin ability and that something new would emerge out of it.

However, until he would get to know the result of the fusion Dilan would have to wait for quite some time.

His focus was more on procuring the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity than trying to understand the Artifact of Traction, its uses and benefits.

The latter was something Dilan could do in the future as well, while the flower was something he was unlikely to encounter at a later point in life.

The Miraculous Flower of Opportunity had blossomed and Dilan plucked it carefully. He stored it inside his storage ring and paid the transfer fee.

[The host has paid the transfer fee for the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity. 2,000,000,000 Essence Points have been deducted!]

Reading through this notification, Dilan felt a bit pained but he accepted it regardless.

In the end, the Miraculous Flower of Opportunity was too valuable not to purchase such a treasure. In comparison, the Essence Points he was required to pay, whether one worked hard to procure them or not, outweighed his gains by a large margin.

Dilan’s power and strength were running out but he had still some Essence Points left.

To be precise, there were around 150,000,000 Essence Points left in his finances.

Leaving them behind would be a shame. Thus, Dilan used the remaining time to organize his storage ring, sell the body parts he would definitely not bring back to his world, and pay the transfer fee for everything else.

After completing all the transactions, Dilan had only one million Essence Points left. He purchased a Tier-4 Essence crystal from the shop and paid the transfer fee, making use of the remaining points almost perfectly.

Dilan was satisfied with himself. He was in possession of various new treasures, got his hands on some monster body parts Old Jeff and other blacksmiths could turn into Tier-3 and Tier-4 forged goods and he also procured more than 10 high-ranked Essence crystals which he could take back home!

There were still a few minutes left on his timer. Dilan went to the beach where he sat down on the ground.

The entire abandoned island smelled of death and destruction as signs of a terrifying battle that had been fought on its ground was clearly visible. Blood covered almost every spot on the surface, which was why Dilan felt a bit apologetic to the Island Turtle.

However, it was not as if the Island Turtle couldn’t have dived down deeper underwater, drowning everything and everyone in the ocean to save itself.

Dilan still had many questions in his mind but resting at the beach caused time to pass much faster than expected.

[The abyss-difficulty advancement mission will conclude in 10 seconds!]

…

[3 seconds]

[2 seconds]

[1 second]

[Congratulations to the host! You have successfully completed the abyss-difficulty advancement mission. Your Score will be calculated shortly!]

[Please step through the portal to allow the system to decrease the difficulties in the Tier advancement process!]

A golden portal manifested right next to Dilan when the system notifications popped up in front of him.

Simultaneously, a terrifying roar reverberated through the ocean and the abandoned island began to tremble.

“It’s time for you to leave as well?” Dilan asked lightly, knowing that he wouldn’t receive an answer.

He stepped through the golden portal and closed his eyes, accepting all the changes that were occurring to him.

The fusion between the Artifact of Traction and the Origin ability accelerated all of a sudden, working as a catalyst to cause a lot of changes.

Dilan felt as if his brain was being mashed. It was as if his mind was a playground for beasts that were running around wildly as the Essence Crystal improved.

He felt like he was suffocating but he endured everything that happened quietly.

After what felt like an eternity, Dilan heard numerous sounds ringing through his mind. He opened his eyes after a few seconds, just to realize that he was still in the golden space of the portal.

Dilan had yet to return to Milarn, which was why he began to frown deeply.

‘Is the advancement not yet done?’ He wondered for a moment before he began to read through all the notifications he had received.

[The host has successfully completed his advancement mission. Congratulations!]

[The host’s score has been evaluated. Evaluation Grade: SS!]

[The host has been rewarded with 28 Ability Merits, a Secret occupational ability, and a painless advancement from Tier-1 to Tier-2!]

“Painless? You fuckers!! That was not painless!!” Dilan cursed instinctively, clearly feeling the throbbing pain in his head. He could barely calm down after he took a few deep breaths in and out as he began to feel a bit confused about what Ability Merits even were.

However, before he could even ask the System, it answered his question in simple terms.

[Advancement missions above the Hell-difficulty reward Ability Merits instead of new abilities that have already been chosen beforehand. The host can exchange Ability Merits in exchange for abilities and traits, which are directly related to his chosen occupation!]

“So I didn’t receive a new ability after advancing my Tier but Ability Merits…but how exactly was their number determined…the Evaluation grade?” Dilan asked himself with a confused expression. His head still hurt, so it was quite difficult to think properly.

[The host received 16 Ability Merits for completing the Abyss-difficulty advancement mission.

The host received 4 Ability Merits for becoming the Overlord on the surface of the abandoned island, 2 Ability Merits for killing an existence two tiers above his own, 4 Ability Merits for killing an existence three tiers above the host’s tier, and 2 Ability Merits for accumulating more than 10 Billion Essence Points!]

Dilan nodded his head after doing a quick calculation and trying to understand what was going on.

But that was easier said than done as he took a look at all the changes that had occurred in his Log of the Ancient and his Occupation’s attributes!

“Huh?”
