Chapter 90: Fire Mage Leader (Mutant Half-Drow)

Checking his attribute panel again, he saw that the caveman's stats on the pet status board had shifted drastically:

[ Name: Fire Mage Leader (Mutant Half-Drow)]

[ Race: Half Drow/Cavemen]

[ Level: Silver (7%)]

[ Quality: Rare]

[ Physique: 12.1]

[ Spirit: 25.7]

[ Introduction: The Mutant Half-Drow leader has undergone a unique transformation, combining its primitive origins with the latent power of the Half-Drow bloodline. It now wields fire magic with an aptitude seldom seen in its species, marking it as a leader of extraordinary potential.]

[ Racial Characteristics:

[Half-Drow Bloodline (Awakened)]: This bloodline has given the creature a strong affinity for fire-based magic. It can manipulate fire at an instinctive level, allowing for rapid casting of fire spells and enhanced control over flame-based attacks. Additionally, it gains a 30% increase in damage dealt by fire magic and a 5% resistance to fire-based attacks.

[Herd Summoning]: Use 100 source stones to summon twenty-five Fire Mages of the same species daily. The attributes of the summoned Half-Drow/Cavemen will be equal to 70% of the summoner's attributes.

[Rapid Reproduction]: Increase reproduction rate and growth rate by an additional 100%.]

[ Skills: Fire Affinity, Fire Ball, Wall of Flames, Flame bomb, Firestorm...]

[ Innate Talent:

[Species Evolution Master]:

Effect: Grants the leader and subordinates a 2% increase in all attributes for every two subordinates of the same species within a 200-meter radius. The bonus can stack up to a 150% boost for 5 minutes.

Post-Battle Evolution Chance: After every battle, there's a 25% chance that nearby subordinates or the leader itself will gain evolution points, allowing them to break species limitations, resulting in stat increases or new skills.]

"Fuck!!" Ram cursed under his breath as he stared at the newly updated attribute panel.

Even though the Fire Mage Leader was at the Silver level, its stats had somehow shot up to a level far beyond his expectations—especially without the help of Bio Armor, its attributes are even stronger than his own attributes.

Ram's eyes flicked to the Silver (7%) mark. "It's barely scratched the surface of the sliver level, and already had such high spirit attribute," he muttered.

There was room for more growth here, but he wasn't planning to boost it any further—at least not right now.

He had already poured more than 300 points of life energy and burned through 400 points of spiritual power into this creature.

By consuming 100 source stones—rare items only found in void spaces—the current Fire Mage Leader could summon twenty-five Fire Mages of the same species daily.

These summoned mages would inherit 70% of its attributes, and won't disappear unless they were dead, which was no small amount of power.

"Is this how those Half-Drow fire mages summoned other Elite mages?" Looking at this new characteristic, Ram instantly thought of what he saw before, on how those Half Drow fire mages summoned others by sacrificing cavemen.

It is common knowledge that all the creatures born from any monster dens are created from source power collected by the monster den. "So it seems, these Half-Drows are indeed as intelligent as the saying suggests."

Ram felt a thrill of excitement run through him. "Twenty-five Fire Mages... without me needing to evolve or enhance them individually."

Even though source stones were hard to come by this ability opened up a whole new level of tactical possibilities.

And those summoned mages wouldn't be pushovers either, not with 70% of the Fire Mage Leader's stats, and with the help of talent its talent they should be able to evolve further.

But the biggest leap was in its skills. The Fire Mage Leader had gone from having no abilities at all to mastering a whole arsenal of fire-based spells similar to those Half-Drow mages he saw: Fire Ball, Wall of Flames, Flame Bomb, and even Firestorm.

Each one was deadly in its own right, and Ram could already imagine the destruction this creature could rain down on its enemies.

Finally, Ram's attention shifted to the Fire Mage Leader's innate Talent - Species Evolution Master, which had also improved with its quality:

This skill now granted a 2% boost to all attributes for every two subordinates within a 200-meter radius from the initial 1%- and 100-meter radius, to be able to stack up to a 150% bonus for five minutes from the previous 50% bonus for 60 seconds.

And even the Post-Battle Evolution Chance has improved from 15%--- After each battle, there was a 25% chance that the Fire Mage Leader or its subordinates could evolve, breaking through species limitations to gain new attributes or abilities.

He leaned back on a nearby luminous tree, crossing his arms, deep in thought.

The Fire Mage Leader was already a formidable creature, but with these new abilities, it was becoming a serious asset—one that could change the tide of battle in his favor, maybe if they could gather all the mechanical soldiers and other professionals together, they should have a chance to clear this monster den.

Still, there was the matter of the source stones.

He'd need to figure out a steady way to gather them if he wanted to make full use of the Fire Mage Leader's summoning abilities.

But for now, the creature was more than strong enough.

"Well, looks like I've got my hands on a real monster, if only I could take it out of the monster den." Ram grinned, but his smile faded as he remembered he had no way to bring this monster from its monster lair.

"Well, I'll think about something later," Ram muttered, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "But first, I need to check its subordinates and see if there's any of them that can be evolved."

After all, with the new Species Evolution Master skill in place, there was a chance some of these underlings could surprise him with unexpected growth.
