Chapter 787 - Innate Ability
[Fey Transformation]
As soon as Emery willed for the transformation, he could feel the bloodline flowing in his body stirring. It blended with his spirit force, indicating that the transformation had been completed effectively.
However, unlike before, there had been a small change to his transformed physical appearance, with the limbs turning just a little hairy. In addition, a tattoo appeared on his chest, neck, until the one under his eyes that had the shape of a fang.
Hooowwllll!!!
The first transformation was completed. However, despite the fact that the transformation was very minimal, Emery received an unexpected notification which made him a little bit surprised.
[Battle power increased by 30]
[Battle Power 175 (237)]
As his battle power had increased and with the 32 from his [Immortal Gate] as addition, Emery could feel a significant increase in strength. With this boost, however, his speed became the most obvious upgrade after the enhancement.
Emery's new transformation allowed him to move much more quickly through the swamp as his speed had highly increased. His senses also became sharper; not long after that, he became aware of the arrival of the next group of creatures chasing after him.
[Rage Drakes]
[Magical Beast Level 60]
[Battle Power 140]
Seeing how the creatures ferociously charged at his direction, Emery now understood why Silva told him to transform before entering this zone.
Even though there were only half the number than the previous packs, each drake in this pack seemed more terrifying than its predecessor. The creatures had sleek armored bodies that allowed it to move fast, as well as sharp protruding spikes and blade-like claws.
Swiiissshhh
With a total weight of 2000 kilograms on his body, which caused him to be somewhat restricted in his movements, these dozens of red creatures were the perfect opponent for Emery to test his newfound strength. It might be a little difficult for him at this moment, but he would still try his best to deal with them all.
It didn't take long for the drakes to arrive and surround him. In response, Emery swiftly dodged, punched, kicked, and tackled his way out of the encirclement. He had to do this over and over again in order to defeat the red creatures.
A number of creatures started to be defeated; 10… 15… until 20 creatures fell under his hands. However, fighting these magical creatures on his own naturally caused him some injuries. Right now, Emery had several open wounds on his body as a result of being slashed by the creatures.
While fighting with the number of beasts that relentlessly attacked, Emery was still making his way into the center of the zone. He kept going, leaving trails of defeated drakes in his wake.
Silva's voice could be heard once again.
"We have the data required for this first transformation. Can you try the next stage?"
"Sure," Emery answered firmly, dodging a Rage Drake lunging from behind.
Emery had been impatient to try the next one, and as soon as he came to a complete stop, all of the drakes who had been chasing him were finally able to close in. From all sides, dozens of the red creatures were charging at him with their jaws wide open. Meanwhile, Emery ignored their existences and closed his eyes before activating his new transformation.
[Night Transformation]
The furs on his limbs immediately darkened to the pitch-black, which was then followed by his body changing again, growing almost twice its previous size. His muscle had been retracted and now he had sharp claws, fangs, ears, and tails. His cheeks turned furry, and his two brows had closed in on each other.
[Battle Power Increased by 40]
[Battle Power 175 (277)]
Emery's battle power was boosted once more, and the moment he received the explosion of power, it was followed by a roaring howl.
[Battle Howl]
[Battle Power Increased by 15]
[Battle Power 175 (290)]
It's almost 300! Emery's current battle power was so close to reaching the standard battle power of Half-Moon magus. Such prowess was certainly unimaginable to a normal acolyte as they even struggled to reach half of that number.
The moment after Emery activated his [Night transformation], the drakes sprang into action and pounced at him from every direction possible. However, as he had received additional increases to his battle power, Emery's eyes were calm as he eyed the pack of creatures heading in his way.
For the current him. it was not troublesome to fight the creatures once more. His newfound strength enabled him to hit the oncoming drakes with great ease and end their existence with a single punch.
Bammm!! Bammm!!
One punch or one kick was more than enough to broke the drakes bones and send the beast crashing into trees and kill it instantly. It suddenly turns into a drake slaughter-fest.
However, It took him too long to realize that the creatures were too many, More and more came to charge at him. As a result, his body was scratched and bitten to the point that the drakes were even able to tear part of it.
"Emery, it seems you were unlucky, there are more drake gathered than usual!!" shouted Silva, who appeared to be concerned. "We are going to turn off the weight back to level one!" She suggested as she started to worry to see Emery's current situation.
Emery, on the other hand, refused to follow Silva's instruction and shouted. "NO!!''
Due to the fact that this transformation had given him an increase in battle power, it seemed that it had also given him a fighting spirit that intensified his will to fight.
In an instant, several blade-like bones came out from the tips of his knuckles. There were three on each arm which came out automatically just like flicking a finger.
[Innate Ability - Blade Claws]
Swwissshhh! Splaltt splalttt!
In the blink of an eye, the swamp turned into a scene of bloodbath. This new transformation of him had made Emery become even more powerful than he had been before. Added with sharp weapon at hand, he was able to quickly kill a massive number of drakes without them being able to do anything, and their body parts splattered all over the swamp.
Howllll!!
With only a few minutes passing, the dark wolf form was the only one standing on the bloody swamp. Meanwhile, the dozen remaining drakes took a few steps back, terrified with the scene in front of them.
As Emery took a deep breath brandishing his new weapon, another notification came to mind.
[Innate Ability - Undecaying Flesh]
As soon as it came to mind, all of the wounds on his flesh started to heal and he was reformed back to his prime state.
Moments later, another new batch of drakes had arrived filling in their depleted numbers. Even though there was slight fear in the eyes of those who survived, these creatures were ready for another fight.
As he felt that his newfound power was way more powerful than before, Emery gave a wicked smile and roared, "Come Fight me!"
20.. 40… 60… drakes corpses were dropping filling on the ground in a short period of time.
The Night Transformation was the embodiment of the second transformation that Emery always had, but in a more reformed state. At the moment, Silva had already called him to stop as they had already completed the data they needed, but Emery didn't want to stop. It seemed that he was hungry for more.
"There is no need to fight more. Come return to the facility! Uncle Bob can't wait to give your body some more tests," said the girl.
Emery, on the other hand, shook his head and said, "I am not done."
Normally, the majority of bloodlines only had two transformations, and Emery had already shown two of them. However, it appeared that Emery still had something to experiment with because he was not quite finished with his transformation.
It was at this point that he turned to smile and activated it, revealing another transformation he wanted to show.
[Day Transformation]
