Chapter 92 - Getting A New Species
Chapter 92 - Getting A New Species
Of course I wanted to! I knew about the Gollem, Werewolf, and Kobold bloodlines. But what were the other bloodlines then?
I still had dragon bloodlines? Didn't they all merge when I consumed my souls before?
And what was with that Kracken bloodline? When did I ever kill such a race?
"I have a few questions regarding the bloodlines I have," I said as I wanted to know more. I didn't want to lose any chance of getting powerful monsters like my dragons here.
[You can view the types of bloodlines you got through the class interface]
[You can select, deselect, or set priority to any bloodline for the future merges]
[Be aware that a low level bloodline can't overcome the higher level ones. So choose carefully as the system will follow the order of nature and not your decision if your decision defied logic]
That made quite sense, but I first opened the class interface. There I found nothing pointing to the bloodline I got.
"Where can I find it?"
[Choose the soul points and you'll see the bloodline there]
I didn't know that! I selected the eighty-eight thousand soul points and instantly a brand new window appeared that I never saw before.
It was a very detailed and densely packed window with a lot of information. There was a log telling me when and where I absorbed any soul and the origin of the souls that I absorbed as well.
"Oh, my Bulltors are still killing those traitors and races," as I could tell, the log was being updated with each passing minute. More lines of information appeared telling me that my Bulltors were killing the enemies.
Also the updates didn't contain the Bulltors only, but also I found other places that were slightly far from here.
"So they are hitting the Bronx now," I felt elated when I realised this. I could simply follow any of my forces progression through this window anytime I wanted.
In addition to this long log, there was also a list of the bloodlines I got. When I read the simple introduction of this list, I understood how I still had the dragon bloodline.
"So any bloodline I get will be added and stored for future uses… That's OP!"
It came as a surprise for me. But I had to see where I got that Kracken bloodline. Just as I clicked over its name, I got a smaller window telling me the information about the time and place of its death.
[Kracken race youngster was killed in the Hudson river bottom fifteen minutes ago]
The line was short, but it told me something I didn't know. "So… That whirlpool wasn't done by the angels directly but through a kid from a Kracken race?" I muttered to myself while understanding how I got this soul.
But I still couldn't get how I killed him. Unfortunately there was nothing telling me how I killed him.
"Not a big problem for me. I got his soul, so what's there to regret?"
In fact I was a little regretful. If I knew about such a race kid getting killed by me, I wouldn't have left his corpse to rot in the bottom of the river.
I turned my head towards the direction of the river. "Should I send a dragon out there to claim his corpse?" I asked myself this before I decided not to.
That river was considered a deadly trap, a place the angels worked so much to make my death there possible. I feared sending a dragon there and would eventually lose him.
"Sigh, at least I got your soul," I closed the smaller window before I found a place to put the souls in a ranking order for the merge.
The highest soul there was, surprisingly, not the dragons but the Kracken soul. Then the dragons came, followed by the Gollems, werewolves, and finally Kobolds.
"I won't change anything," I closed the window before I thought about something else.
"I want to ask another question," I said, "if I merged fifteen monsters right now, what are the chances to develop each race as a summoned monster?"
[You need to pay one thousand soul points to get the answer of this question]
[Do you want to pay?]
I raised my eyebrows when I read that. Was the system acting stingy here or what?
"Alright, take them you bastard!"
[One thousand souls are deducted]
[The ratio of each race will be: Kracken 30% - Dragon 25% - Gollems 20% - Werewolves 15% - Kobolds 10%]
I looked at this message for so long before I finally made up my mind. "It's better this way," I said while reopening the bloodline order window again, deselecting all the bloodlines here except for the Kracken.
Yes, I decided to go on this one by one, forming my entire forces by my own arrangement and not a silly percentage of possibilities.
"Start the merge," I said before the previous messages appeared in front of my eyes. Yet this time it detected only the Kracken bloodline and it only consumed five thousand souls only.
[Forming four new monsters based on the preferences of the souls and their strength]
*Whoosh!*
In a flash, a big bulky body of a monster appeared in front of my eyes. Compared to the Gollems, this dude here wasn't any lesser in size than then.
He had a big oval shaped head that stretched over five metres in length at least. He had a short chest and torso compared to his big elongated head, no arms and instead he ended up with eight large and thick tentacles.
Each tentacle was the size of a human body in size, in a length that exceeded ten metres at least. He was a gigantic one dude that reminded me of a giant octopus.
He opened his two pairs of eyes, blinked twice before he gained some clarity and spotted me.
"Master," he bowed, or to be precise he made his tentacles rise before bending halfway in the form of a bow. When he spoke, his mouth that was in the form of a thin line opened wide and showed three rows of long saw-like teeth.
He was vicious and brutal, that was the first impression I got from him.
"Can you walk on earth?" I asked as from his appearance I could tell he was an aquatic monster. Not only was his skin covered with a mucus -like substance that covered many thin faint blue scales that covered his body starting midway of his torso, but also he got gills.
The gills were in the form of three thin parallel lines on each side of the lower segment of his head, what I would consider his neck.
"Master, I can walk on earth but my speed will be decreased," he said.
"Call me lord," I corrected him before adding, "show me your speed."
If he was like a snail, then forget about it. I needed an aquatic monster anyway.
*Fwoosh!*
Yet what happened next made my scalp numb! What the hell was that speed?!!
He just moved his eight tentacles before he left a cloud of dust behind. In just a blink of an eye he crossed a hundred metres easily, making me pale in comparison.
"Come back, it's ok," I couldn't help but shake my head in amazement before he reappeared in front of me.
"Lord, are you satisfied?" he asked and I felt a tinge of worry in his low pitched voice.
Come on dude! It was me here who should act nervous, not you!
"Take these," as I was satisfied with his actions, I took a large number of stat gems, "use them to raise your level to level hundred. Ah, also take this and use it," I also took out a white bone and threw it casually on the ground in front of him.
When I took out the stat gems, his eyes shone in excitement. But when I threw the bone, his eyes got wide open, feeling shocked from the bone.
"Lord… This… This…"
"Yes I know," I grinned, "you must be lucky to have such a magnanimous lord."
"Indeed, indeed… Lord is generous and mighty," that Kracken acted like a spy kid, literally jumping over the bone and stat gems while fearing I might return in my words.
Dude! I wasn't that stingy or a loser person to go back on such few stat gems and one white grade bone!
"Go there and use them," I pointed to one side, where it was closer to the river. I was still worried that the angels might try something funny. So it was best to let such a water beast stand on guard over there.
As I saw how valuable this Kracken was, I summoned three more. I treated them like I treated the first dude I summoned.
Now I had four aerial dragons, four aquatic Krackens, and both looked formidable on the ground.
It was time to merge with the Gollems.
[Detecting Gollem bloodline in the souls absorbed]
[Forming four new monsters based on the preferences of the souls and their strength]
*Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!* *Whoosh!*
Eight monsters appeared next, each was the same size as the previous Gollems I killed. They looked at me and bowed, in a slow way that expressed their slow speed.
Gosh! If such behemoths had only higher speed, they would become invincible!
"Take these," I did the same but this time I took out enough stat gems and crystals to make each one reach to level two hundred.
I didn't see them as my main killing force, but the ones who would hold the frontline from now one. They were my cannon fodders, and the more formidable they were, the more relaxed the rest of my forces would be.
So I didn't act stingy with them. I just hoped they would show slight improvement in their movement and reaction speed.
However, unlike what I hoped for, they only got slightly bigger, their skin looked tougher, and their strength and defence became more formidable.
Yet their speed looked the same when I gave them the order to move around.
"The last four monsters to summon then," I decided to give it a try by summoning four of each remaining race. Yet I was slightly hesitant about something here.
The Werewolves and Kobolds weren't that formidable like the other warriors I had. For a second there I thought about summoning a dragon or a Gollem instead.
"What if I merged dragons with them?" I thought about it and decided to give it a try.
Even if it failed, I still would end up with four dragons. Adding the initial four I had, then I would have eight.
Not to mention that heavily injured dragon, I could now have more flexibility and superiority in any fight. After all, the aerial monster stage hadn't come yet and the angels wouldn't summon aerial races without paying a hefty price for it.
Once I decided that, I selected the first dragon and Werewolf bloodlines before I started merging two monsters at the same time.
*Whoosh!* *Whoosh!*
Two monsters flashed and when they appeared, I couldn't help but open my eyes wide and felt astonished to see the result.
What was special about werewolves?
They had big bodies, not compared to the Gollems indeed. But compared to my shield warriors and Bulltors they were similar.
Their bodies looked like a wolf got enlarged, got its muscles inflated, and stood on two. They were hairy, thick hair covering up their bodies. Yet the deadliest things they had were their long and strong jaws, plus their sharp claws ending up in each arm instead of fingers.
What about the two monsters I got here?
They had the similar shape of the werewolves I just mentioned. Yet their size doubled! Their jaws, which I thought would never become any fiercer, got elongated and broadened, showing their teeth to get out from the side even if they closed their mouths.
The next remarkable thing about them was the absence of long hair.. The hair was gone and was replaced with medium sized scales that looked dragon like.
