Chapter 808 Improvements And Plans



Three days later...

After Lothur let Blood and Smoke exterminate the first group of spectres of their lives, they set off as Cykad had suggested.

When Lothur could use his bloodline ability to devour the abilities of demons, the group would go after these creatures. When he was incapacitated, the group would head for the locations of the groups of spectres they had information about.

At this point, young Ritter would question these creatures about other groups of spectres and the Castle of Shadows before allowing Blood and Smoke to do their work.

In this scheme of things, not only had Lothur improved some of his attributes during these days. Blood and Smoke had raised their soul powers considerably, showing Lothur their true potential.

...

The group was now standing near its next demonic target, in a forest in the Petha Empire, where the sky was clear and the day was burning that morning.

But the group was waiting for the last few minutes for Lothur's bloodline ability to come back with their plans and approach the group of creatures nearby.

While Lothur was waiting for the moment to attack, he observed the two small cats in front of him and their new attribute values.

[Name: Blood]

[Soul Cultivation: level 22]

[Body Cultivation: level 22]

[STR: 4,099] [CON: 4,221] [DEX: 4,115] [AGI: 4,179]

[INT: 1,499] [PER: 5,556] [WIL: 2,650] [SOU: 3,412]

...

[Name: Smoke]

[Soul Cultivation: level 22]

[Body Cultivation: level 22]

[STR: 4,100] [CON: 4,215] [DEX: 4,122] [AGI: 4,180] n--OVelb1n

[INT: 1,499] [PER: 5,556] [WIL: 2,680] [SOU: 3,521]

After days of observing the digestion of Blood and Smoke, Lothur realized that these creatures he had created had more similarities to him than he had imagined.

The innate ability of these beings gave them the ability to absorb one of their targets' attributes, Soul. In Lothur's case, he could do this with the Constitution attribute. But like their creator, Blood and Smoke had the same percentage of use in relation to the points they absorbed.

But they had the great advantage over their creator of being able to absorb Soul points, those that normally cultivators and spiritual beings had in greater value.

Their disadvantage over their creator was that Lothur could absorb Soul Bones, while these little cats couldn't do the same.

In any case, after observing them constantly these days, Lothur already had a good idea of how Blood and Smoke's powers worked and how strong they could become in the future.

These two were the weakest of his group at the moment, but once they were freed to go spectre hunting, they could quickly raise their powers and become powerful!

With this in mind, Lothur was gradually becoming more confident about creating new artificial creatures in the future.

But for now, he was focused on his mission to eliminate as many demons as possible before attracting the attention of enemies.

As he continued his hunt alongside his women and Cykad, their targets became stronger and harder for them to take down without causing a commotion.

Having already taken down several groups, it wouldn't be long before they reached the groups of demons watched by enemies, which would increase the difficulty of their mission.

The downside was that they would soon have countless enemies to face and flee from. But there was a bright side. These targets being watched could form interesting Soul Bones for their group to absorb!

What's more, their situation with the spectres was basically the same as it had been a few days ago. After attacking three new groups of specters, they managed to locate another five new groups, but nothing major.

But as far as the spectres were concerned, their situation was better from Blood and Smoke's point of view. No one was observing 4th stage spectres on the continent, so all the groups they could find could be interesting targets with little chance of danger to them.

Aware of this, Lothur planned to raise the power level of his furry friends to level 23 before taking any chances with demons being watched by groups hunting him.

While considering the strengths of his feline friends, Lothur suddenly felt as if something had changed inside him and took his eyes off the two cats.

"I'm ready." He said quietly to his group, drawing their attention to the action about to unfold.

"Okay!"

The four women and Cykad said so simultaneously, already circulating their energies to accompany Lothur on yet another demon slaying.

Lothur didn't need the help of these five individuals to kill 4th stage demons. However, these teammates had been important for him to increase the degree of security of what he did every time he acted against demons.

In other words, Lothur could hide his aura and his ability to use Life Devourer. However, he had to get to the demons and start his action before he could do that. It was precisely at this point that his group took part in his actions.

Lothur's women and Cykad acted together to camouflage the area where he would act just a few moments before he acted, enough for no one but the demons to see him moving, but not enough to leave space for escape for the demons.

They were acting against beings theoretically unobserved by others. But they couldn't be 100% sure about that.

This action could help them camouflage Lothur's movement because, as much as some Sages knew his aura, hardly anyone knew the auras of Annaliese, Viktoria, Elke, and Rebecca.

As they had done several times in recent days, the four women and the great dinosaur moved together, camouflaging the surroundings of the area where this morning's five targets were.

Two seconds after their movement, Lothur distorted space, moving almost instantly from his position to the middle of the area where the demons were.

They clearly realized that someone was moving against them. But it was too late. With Lothur too close to them and all the surrounding space blocked by two layers of spatial distortion, these demons had nowhere to run, nor could they call for help.

Lothur didn't trifle with them and promptly activated his bloodline ability, showing these creatures the ultimate predator of their race before eliminating them, absorbing their vitality and understanding.
