Chapter 384: Monster Imprint (2)

In the end, my name was lacking from the leaderboards of the double EXP event since I could not even participate in it.

So I had no choice but to burst into a rage at the Lucia Guild, who was responsible for all this. But I had to be patient for now because I didn’t know where the guild leader was.

Anyway, I was busy again unpacking my baggage and fixing those places that had been neglected or broken by the monsters. Of course, I could not access Revival Legend while I was busy.

Anyway, I had no choice but to claim the credit for my hard efforts to protect the Myongjin Shelter because it would make those living in the shelter show more loyalty to Myongjin. And it was always important to finish on a good note because no matter how well one started off, they would be blamed if they didn’t end on a good note.

A few days later, I finally accessed Revival Legend.

[Access Revival Legend]

It has been almost two months since I last logged in. Of course, I had a chance to access it in the meantime, but I deliberately didn’t log in because I was so frustrated and upset.

So I even trembled a little after accessing it after a long time.

As soon as I accessed it, I first headed to the level 1500 hunting ground Land of Titan.

“Tanks, you guys block them in front!”

“Herd ten of them only!”

“Start killing those in front of you one by one!”

“Got it. Exploding Flames!”

“Chain Lightning!”

“Pouring Storm!”

“Piercing Power Shot!”

Puck! Puck! Bang! Bang!

Well, quite a bit of time has passed since I last logged in. For example, I lost almost two months in the place called the new continent during the Borneche Expedition alone, and the latest series of events also took over two months as well.

Because of my long absence from the hunting ground, there were quite a few hunting in the level 1500 hunting ground Land of Titan, including not only Myongjin players but also those from Tugal of Mongolia, Daesung, Kusan and Mirae Guilds, as well as even Japan’s Mitsuya Guild.

Since seeing them hunting was not new to me, I just passed by them quickly and moved inside the hunting ground.

Of course, there were some who recognized and welcomed me, but I returned their greetings by nodding at them slightly, for even a single second was critical for me to make up for the time I could not access Revival Legend.

“Blizzard!”

Puck! Puck! Puck! Puck!

[Kheeeeeeeeeek!]

[Khuuuuuuuuuuuk!]

My growth has been stagnant for nearly two months, but that didn’t mean I had become weaker than before.

Because of that, the Titans collapsed like leaves falling in the autumn wind when I launched an attack using Blizzard without using Ice Field and Multiple Thin Ice.

“Alright! Let me show my strength again!”

I could not help but exclaim at the fantastic results of my powerful attack as usual.

Since I showed off my power after a long time, I felt even more thrilled.

At that moment, a message rang.

[You are connected with Ancient Monster Summoning Eergy.]

“Huh?”

This was a message I never expected.

And this kind of strange message kept ringing.

[You are not the direct owner of ‘Ancient Monster Summoning Energy’.

– Fail to assimilate monsters.

– Succeed in imprinting monsters into your body.

– Fail to buff the monsters’s recognition of you as their ilk.

– Monster command buffs fail.

: You can use monster imprinting.]

“Is it you?”

Of course, I directed my question at the White Root.

There was no answer, as always.

Without waiting for its answer, I quietly opened my mouth.

“Confirm monster imprinting!”

I knew it was much better for me to focus on the current message than to repeatedly ask the White Root hundreds of times when I could not expect any reply.

[Monster imprinting.

-You can imprint a monster onto your body to acquire its unique traits.

: How to imprint the monster.

-After using monster imprinting, you can hunt the monsters of the same type and accumulate their traits up to 100%.

– You can accumulate 0.001% of traits per monster, and you can imprint monsters when your accumulation reaches 100%.

-If you hunt any other type of monster before your accumulation rate reaches 100%, you will lose all of the traits that you have already accumulated.]

“0.001% per monster?”

0.001% per monster meant that I had to hunt exactly 100,000 monsters of the same type in order to achieve 100%. At the same time I was not supposed to hunt other types of monsters. Of course, I didn’t think it was that difficult because my hunting speed was incomparably superior to others.

“Use Monster Imprinting!”

To find out what it was exactly, it was best to do it by myself, so I used the monster imprinting.

Then a message rang.

[You have used monster imprinting.

-The first monster you hunt will be your imprinting target.

-If you hunt other types of monsters, all your accumulated traits of the monsters you have been hunting will be deleted, and the new monster type you hunted will become your imprinting target.]

As soon as the message was over, I immediately herded Titans using Blink with zero cooldown and quickly cleaned them up with Ice Tornado.

“Imprint Monster!”

[Monster Imprinting status.

-Currently accumulated monsters: Titan.

-Current accumulation achievement rate: 0.019%

: Acquire the following traits when you imprint Titan by achieving 100% accumulation rate.

-Physical Strength stat points increase by 3000.

-Stamina stat points increase by 3000.

– Acquire rigidity. (Reduces all damage by 10%.)]

“Wow!”

Of course, an increase in stamina was not ideal since it was already under the effects of Mutual Growth, but I wouldn’t care even if I completely excluded it. Rather I was happy because this was not something that I received equally simply by leveling up or with items, or skills like others did.

In particular, an increase in Strength by 3000 was very attractive.

As a matter of fact, I had great success through melee attacks using the +7 Enhancement Ice Emperor’s guardian sword, so an extra 3000 Strength would enhance my power even more, not to mention the 10% damage reduction.

“Hehehe!”

I could not help but laugh heartily in satisfaction when I thought about it.

For I now had a clear goal, and when I achieved it, I would receive a very sweet reward.

And I was now confident that it was none other than the White Root that stopped those monsters appearing in the Myongjin Shelter.

What’s more, I had not only the monster imprinting, but also monster assimilation.

So I shouted at the White Root with deep affection, but I heard no response like before.

The White Root did not show up, but I didn’t care like always.

Instead, I charged at Titans because I could not afford to waste any time in order to hunt 100,000 monsters.

While Juyoung Hong was absorbed into hunting, something emerged from the ground quickly to observe him before burrowing back underground.
