Chapter 848 Present Situation
"Unfortunately, my system was corrupted by the demons without my knowledge, and you ended up in this terrible situation." The old man in front of Lothur said it while the young man's mouth was wide open.
"But how? If you are so strong, how could you not notice?" Lothur asked, feeling it shouldn't be possible for someone of level 27 to be fooled by beings of lower levels.
"It was because of the Soul Crystal. It's an Immortal Crystal, something that basically has the same rank as my powers. It can perfectly fool even someone of my level." Felous said sincerely. "Unfortunately, it was used by the demons, and I didn't have the opportunity to realize that with my two chosen ones who came before you."nOve-lb/1n
"So that's it..."
"Now you have suffered the worst of what was to come. Luckily, you didn't die." He moved his hands, making a few seals as he created something new in Lothur.
"I didn't die?"
"You are very weak right now. As much as the singularities you absorbed aren't the foundation of your existence, they were behind a lot of your powers before. When you lost them, you should have died. However, one of your Soul Bones managed to save your soul, and if you recover, you'll be fine." He said as an infinite number of extremely small lines appeared in the area as if space was made of these things.
"I am giving you a new system! It won't give you many options, but it will be enough to restrain your bloodlust, help you understand your opponents' powers, and absorb spiritual energy." Felous said. "But even though it won't be that different, you will feel much better with it.
The other system was corrupted, so it didn't allow you to use your bloodline power whenever you wanted, and it also imposed other restrictions on you. From now on, your powers will be limitless, Lothur!"
Hearing it, Lothur was not surprised to discover the other system had limited him, as he had indeed found it strange throughout his journey that he had never developed his bloodline and physique powers.
Now he understood it was all the fault of the worm generated by the Soul Crystal, not a natural limitation of his own.
As for his bloodlust, it was obviously related to his reality as a hybrid, something that had always been contained by the other system and that he would continue to have with Felous' system.
"Lothur, if you reach level 27 one day, you can change the system as you wish or even exclude it from your existence. But for now, use it to stop the Demon Emperor. As strong as you were before, you're not like that anymore, and your opponent is much more terrifying than you could have imagined.
When I faced him thousands of years ago, his soul energy was over 100,000 points. So be careful."
Gulp!
"I will," Lothur said, realizing he still needed something to help him.
"Well, that's all I had to talk to you about. But before I go, I must warn you that you are much weaker than when you fell. Part of your powers came from the special energies of the singularities you absorbed. So, all your attributes have decreased significantly." Felous said as his body became more and more transparent.
"But don't be discouraged. With my system and without your previous limitations, you'll be able to regain your strength quickly..."
With these words, Felous disappeared from Lothur's remaining consciousness into his eighth Soul Bone, leaving the young Ritter alone again.
'Now what?' Lothur asked himself, feeling helpless and not knowing what to do.
He didn't know where he was, what his body looked like, or how long it had been since falling. Moreover, he didn't know what he would need to change his current state and wake up.
'Is my physique ability still reliable?' He asked himself, wondering if his body would recover easily and become stronger afterward.
To his surprise, a blue light appeared before him, forming a large message box.
[Yes, host, your physique is still the same as before. However, its efficiency is lower because it has lost much of its power with the loss of the two singularities. However, it is no longer limited by the Soul Crystal, and any injury to the host's body will cause an improvement. In short, you don't have to suffer much to get improvements.]
"Huh?" Lothur was surprised. He had not thought that the system Felous had created was already working.
So he asked. "What is my current situation?
[Attributes are down about 70%.
Vitality is down 90%.
All resistances are down between 30% and 50%.
Abilities related to the Soul Bones remain the same. Still, since your attributes are weaker, these abilities will also prove to be weaker.
Finally, the host did not take any physical damage. All the damage went to your soul. As a result, your Physique skill won't give you a power bonus when you recover.]
'This is all terrible!' Lothur felt the bitterness of his situation.
'Your creator said I was no longer limited by the previous parasite. What's different about me now?' He decided to look for some positive information.
[Your bloodline ability can now be used without restriction. Its range is weaker due to the loss of singularities and the decrease in the host's strength. However, it is now slightly more efficient at transferring the vitality and characteristics of its targets to you.
In addition, your ability to use EVF points to temporarily save the life of someone who is about to die has evolved. Previously, you could use these points to temporarily keep your target alive. If you didn't find another solution, that person would eventually die or depend on your points for the rest of their lives.
Now, once you've given the points to someone, if they pass the given threshold, which can vary depending on the person receiving them, that host's target can have their situation completely resolved by the EVF points.
At the same time, the host can now give absorbable EVF points to third parties, which can be used to empower others besides the host. In short, you can give third parties some of what you have, and those people can gradually absorb those points.]
lightsΝοvel.cοm These were outstanding improvements in Lothur's eyes, primarily because he could distribute power as he saw fit.
That was the skill of a sovereign!
'Perfect! And how long will it take for me to recover naturally?'
[100 years.]
