Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

Chapter 265 The Key Element; Where?

Legolas screamed so loud and for so long that he lost his voice.

"Inject him with another Adrenaline 0-PG13 shot".

Whirr!

The Adrenaline shot barely got to work on the test subject's body when Clown continued his experiment. This time, he was not focused on augmenting the test subject more but rather on finding the difference.

From the result of his experiments on his other human test subjects, he already came to a definite conclusion that the difference lied in Legolas.

His question was now of a myriad form. 'Why is Legolas different?'

'What is different about him?'

'Is he not a human?'

'How can he be the only one with a low compatibility with Giant Runes?'

His questions were numerous and the only way that he could find an answer to them was dissecting this human again to find that biological difference.

Despite completely ravaging through Legolas's body completely, Clown could not find it, he could not find the tangible difference that changed everything.

He slumped and gave in to his initial conclusion. 'So, it all lies in him'.

'He is the special one…'

One of his assistants suddenly interrupted him.

"Sir, the test subject has passed out".

Clown waved his hands absentmindedly. "Inject him with regeneration shots and vitality enhancing shots before taking him back to the Abyss Hole".

"Yes, your Excellency".

A few minutes later, Legolas was dumped inside the hole.

Thud!

The impact woke him up and what followed was a virtual interface notification, fully rousing him out of his tiredness.

-----

You have been protected from immediate death by the lethal dark energy by your organic connection with the Nightmare Beast- Predator!

Due to the extremely high concentration of Dark Abyss energy, Predator's gains are partially transferring to you through your organic connection!

You have received a temporary partial Darkness Regeneration passive ability!

[Regeneration Rate: 10 HP every second and 5 MP every second!]

…

[Complete Merging process with Magic Runes still in progress…]

[Current Progress Rate: 61%!]

----

Legolas's eyes gleamed. "Not too long now…"

Forcing himself, he creeped to where Predator's black cocoon was located. On getting to close proximity, he could feel the vitality of his 1st contracted beast.

Even till now, Predator was still rapidly devouring the darkness energy of the Abyss as his body and energy constantly grew by the second.

Legolas softly caressed the cocoon. "I'm relying on you buddy…"

While he caressed the cocoon, Legolas was jolted awake as a commotion started above the hole. It was not a battle but even down below the hole, Legolas could feel the shock that was radiating from the scientists above.

His eyes narrowed. "What happened?"

"Have the Grade C Superhumans started their attacks?"

"Or did someone…, die?"

Legolas barely asked this question when his virtual interface lit up another notification, and this one stole his breath away.

"Holy… Sh*t!" Legolas was flabbergasted.

He was flabbergasted not just because Blade killed a Black Master, not just because Blade became a Grade C Pugilist but because of his latest unlocked talent.

"F*ck! He's already unlocked Demi-Singularity?!"

Of Blade's myriad talents, this was his most significant and iconic in Version 1, every player remembered the iconic character.

Blade with this talent was prime Blade!

With this talent, he was already an existence at Jon Stones' level.

'Damn, my students are already exceeding me'.

Legolas felt both aggrieved and happy at the same time but his greatest worry was about himself, he looked at Predator who was still growing then he looked up at the exit of the hole.

"After losing a Black Master, what will be Clown's response…?"

His answer came in the most direct way.

Thud!

Psychopaths came in their special protective suits before hauling him away for another round of experiments, this was his punishment for his student's crime.

Legolas gritted his teeth. 'So help me God'.

…

Abaddon's death did not remain a secret for long.

As soon as he killed the notorious Black Master, Blade rallied round and returned to the Tunic Shelter with his lifeless head. While riding on Kiddo's back, Lucky and her Fox gang followed her from behind.

With Di Castello's help and 2 Grade C Foxes, they swept through the forces of the Clown Society with impunity, completely annihilating them.

No psychopath escaped the boundaries of Tunic Shelter alive.

As soon as they were done, Blade turned to face Di Castello. "The ultimate showdown is about to go off, as a Grade C superhuman, you can't stay neutral".

"Follow me let's join the Grade C Superhuman alliance".

"I can't, I have obligations to my…"

"To your shelter?" Blade smirked as he looked at him. "If I didn't come, more than 95% of the citizens of Tunic Shelter would have died today".

"And who says Abaddon would not have overpowered you in the end?"

"If you really want to save Tunic Shelter from further disasters, join us in our attempt to get rid of the Clown Society once and for all".

Though Di Castello still felt hesitant, in the end he agreed. Having witnessed Blade's incredible might once, he didn't feel comfortable rejecting him.

Before leaving, Blade turned to face Kiddo. "Will you accompany me?"

Instead of roaring, the Chefron spoke, Blade was surprised. Apparently, after his breakthrough, not only his power grew but his intelligence also.

Kiddo shook his head. "My place belongs here at sea".

"If the battle ever shifts to the sea, be rest assured that I will show up".

Blade smiled for the first time since losing his master. "Ok buddy, goodluck at sea, I hope I'll see you again sometime soon".

Kiddo nodded before turning to sprint back to sea.

Blade turned to look at Lucky who went straight to the point.

"I came because I felt that Master is in danger".

Blade's eyes lit up. "If you feel so, then there's a high chance that he's still alive, we need to give our all to rescue him".

The motivation of these 2 powerhouses burned fiercely.

After making up his mind, it didn't take much harder for them to locate the alliance. A few minutes later, they were in an underground chamber where dozens of Grade C Superhumans were gathered.

This was a gathering of the most powerful individuals in Planet Darvis.

Hunter Master Lydia addressed them. "We are prepared, we have gathered all the power that we need to storm the Clown Society and overpower that powerful Giant but we have only one hindrance".

"We still don't have the key element".

"And what is that?" One curious Grade C Elementalist asked.

"Where?" Hunter Master Lydia replied.

"We still don't know where the headquarters of the Clown Society is".

"If we don't know where to attack to completely disable their methods and foundation, we will have a much harder time winning this war".

"We need to know where their hideout is".

"We need to neutralise them fast or we'll lose too much".

"…"

Everyone kept quiet, they had no information about the Clown Society.

While everyone stayed silent, this was when Blade spoke. "I think I may know somewhere, no, someone who may know where their headquarters is".

"Who?"

"My senior brother".
