After absorbing Long Zi's body and completing his Dragonform, the Heavenly Master System's reward for Andrea's mission had increased from 22 points to 76 points in one go. Correspondingly, the strongest ghost that had appeared so far, Feng Shui Master Tong Renjie's ghost, had only been rewarded with 11 points of Merit.
With Andrea's flesh and blood, this was already terrifying enough.
The Heavenly Master System did not increase his reward again, so the conclusion was simple — — Andrea did not become stronger again. Seventy-six, this number was his ceiling.
Andrea also noticed this point, and slowly opened his eyes. The calm and happy expression on his face had disappeared, and what replaced it was surprise mixed with a little panic.
He released his hands and threw the corpses of the Long Zi brothers to the ground, then placed his palms in front of himself.
What was going on? Although drinking the blood essence from Long Zi still made him feel comfortable, the feeling of power gushing into him from before did not appear. Not only did his appearance not change, his abilities did not improve at all.
Why didn't I become stronger? Andrea opened his eyes wide, the long tail behind him reacted to his emotions and started to twitch in mid air.
Abandoning his family and joining the black tower was his first step. After that, he had relied on his own hard work to smoothly become the disciple of the Magus King. But very quickly, he had reached the bottleneck called "Inherent skill".
Under the Magus King's instigation, Andrea had killed the rising star, Xi Men Xi. With this, he finally thought that he had exceeded the requirement of "Inherent skill".
He continuously absorbed many disciples, including Peter who was the strongest, and even completed the Sickle Transformation.
At this time, Andrea must have thought that his "Inherent skill" was no longer able to restrict himself.
When Magus King told him the method to break through his Inherent Skill, it must have been the most wrong thing that the King had ever done in his entire life. This was Andrea's first thought after turning into a Dragon.
But now, he finally understood why the Magus King would tell him the way to break through his "Inherent skill", because the King had seen his "limit".
No matter how hard he tried, no matter how many lives he had taken, all Andrea could do was only this much.
"Ha, haha, hahaha!" Looking at his own hands, Andrea felt as if he could see those people who he had killed and stolen their power from. Xi Men Yu, Peter … Each of these people had a higher limit than him, but they had all died by his hands. The one standing at the back was Andrea, but his laughter was filled with sorrow.
He had thought that he would be able to pry into the ultimate mysteries of magic, and even become an existence that stood above all the Magus King. But he was wrong. From the very beginning, that possibility had never existed in his life.
The reason the Magus King had allowed him to do as he pleased was because he had long since predicted that Andrea would not become an obstacle in his growth. Perhaps, even Peter's death was within the king's plans.
The bloody battles between the eleven disciples had already been arranged since the moment they were called into the sect.
It turned out that everything had been written down.
Andrea could feel that fate was mocking him with a smile at an invisible place.
"Laughter from the hallucinations drilled into his ears, and his eyes went wild." I don't believe it! " Andrea suddenly roared out, "I don't believe it!" What didn't he believe? Apart from himself, no one could understand the meaning of this roar.
Andrea looked at the last dragon woman, Elsa.
That was also his last hope. Andrea extended his hands that were full of greenish black scales, and grabbed towards Dragon Lady Elsa. This was his last stand against fate!
At this time, Elsa raised her head and a gigantic black shadow had already arrived above them. The entire plaza was covered by the black shadow.
"Father." Elsa whispered.
In the blink of an eye, Andrea had already flown in front of Elsa and was about to squeeze Elsa's thin and soft looking neck with his two hands.
However, the green cage suddenly began to move.
The soul flame rose from the ground and condensed in the air, transforming into a burning cyan fire dragon that madly rushed towards Andrea who was on the ground.
The cyan colored fire dragon opened its mouth wide, as though it wanted to crush Andrea with a single bite!
But Andrea just turned around and waved his hand lightly, and the green fire dragon changed its direction and crashed into the ground. The cyan colored fire dragon smashed onto the ground of the plaza, and like a drop of water blooming on the ground, countless flames were ignited. These cyan colored flames fell onto every corner of the plaza, and then burned brightly, illuminating the entire inside of the aqueous membrane into a strange cyan color.
"It's you again!" Andrea looked at Zhou Heng who was standing far away. "Other than Zhou Heng, no one else present was able to do such a thing. "Damn you!"
"I'm sorry." Zhou Heng shrugged his shoulders and showed an innocent expression. In the end, he still did not choose to escape. Andrea did not become stronger, which meant that he still had a chance to defeat Andrea.
"Very good, very good." Andrea suddenly laughed, "It's really great that you didn't escape!"
"After I eat this Draconian, the next one will be you."
"You don't brush your teeth after eating?" Zhou Heng asked with a smile. He was trying to ease the tension in his heart. It was just like how some examinees would do something that would let them relax before the exam began.
To deal with this guy, Zhou Heng had to raise his condition to perfection. While speaking nonsense with Andrea, Zhou Heng slowly moved his footsteps — — He wanted to go to the "Big Ji" position.
Andrea did not notice the change in Zhou Heng's position. As a Magus, he knew nothing about Feng Shui.
"You're in a really good mood," Andrea said. "I hope that you can still smile after I strangle you."
"I thought you westerners were very good at humor. It seems that there are exceptions to everything." Zhou Heng spouted nonsense at him, but his feet never stopped. He hoped that the other party wouldn't discover his intentions, because of the nervousness in his heart.
"What the hell are you doing!" Although he did not understand Feng Shui, Andrea was not an idiot. He must be trying to do something.
"Guess." Zhou Heng was finally standing on the "Grand Ji" position!
