Chapter 136 Nameless
The monsters gradually approached the Wyvern. They wanted to help her, as the Wyvern was the strongest in these ice caves. Wyvern was quite savvy for a monster, so she began to descend. She knew that Wain would not get out of this situation.
Nor could Wain quickly penetrate the protective scales on the Wyvern’s back. They were much denser than on the belly and several times more in a couple of layers. The plasma sword was useless in this situation.
Wain’s fists were powerful, but not that. It would have taken him a few minutes, which he didn’t have.
However, Wain had one solution, and that was bombs.
Wain inserted the yellow crystal into the hollow cube and immediately used the bomb bundle. He only had a few seconds before the cube filled with energy and was ready to explode. .𝒄𝒐𝒎
When Wain used the bomb bundle, the ice web quickly tied the two bombs together and glowed brightly. It only took three seconds. Wain smirked and threw the bombs under the Wyvern when it was ready.
His idea was to hit the Wyvern’s belly simultaneously, as well as the dozens of monsters that had come calling for help. Wain moved to the other half of the Wyvern’s back to avoid being hit by the bombs.
Unlike the other monsters, the Wyvern understood what Wain was about to do, but it had no time to dodge the attack.
Booom.
Seconds after Wain threw the bombs, there was a deafening explosion. Each of the bombs was unusual in that different projectiles flew out of them in addition to exploding. Hundreds of sharp needles flew out of Imp’s Needle Bomb, reinforced and given an additional ice attribute.
Under these conditions, the ice attribute was practically useless against ice-resistant monsters, but the bundle increased the power of the bombs by 30%. This was a significant boost considering the bombs exploded simultaneously and increased each other’s firepower.
When the Edge Blast exploded, hundreds of light beams exploded in all directions. That bomb cost seven Void Souls, and even though it was Primary Chronicle, the beams could damage even First Chronicle creatures.
Wain had to use three items simultaneously, but he didn’t regret it. For when the bombs exploded, he could hear his enemies’ flesh tearing and screaming from being in agony.
Moreover, even the Wyvern was quite severely wounded as the bombs exploded under its belly. Wain had previously taken several powerful blows to its belly, which significantly reduced the defense of that part of its body. The bombs made several deep wounds in the Wyvern’s belly. The Wyvern could fight on, but it has a weakness.
Whooosh.
Wain jumped off the Wyvern and made his way to the other end of the cave. To his surprise, none of the monsters were dead, but every one of them was wounded.
‘Okay, looks like I’m going to have to spend a lot more strength here than I originally planned.’ Thought Wain and his hand began to build up black electrical discharges.
He didn’t expect the bombs to kill everyone, but he did expect about a third of the monsters to die. Wain had underestimated the survivability of his enemies, but he had a way to correct that miscalculation.
Crackle.
Wain clenched his fist, and dark clouds appeared over the ice vortex in the next second. Then the electrical charges turned into a massive pillar of thunder that came crashing down on the monsters like a heavenly punishment.
The thunder pillar destroyed all the bridges in the ice vortex and turned most of the monsters into ash. Every time Wain used this skill, he created incredible destruction. It was the incomparable power of the Epic Rating soul skill.
The Wyvern was the only monster that managed to survive. It covered itself with its massive wings and barely protected itself from the lightning strikes. The Wyvern’s wings were severely damaged, and it would no longer be able to escape.
Its only option was to fight to the death and, by some miracle, try to survive.
“AHAHAHAHA.” Suddenly Wain laughed, looking at practically a hundred souls flying into his body. Some of these souls were blue, now he would be able to improve his skills. But, first, he had to deal with the Wyvern.
“Normally, I don’t like to get dirty, but I’ll make an exception for you.” With an evil smirk, Wain said and turned into a blue flash.
He instantly got to the Wyvern’s belly and ripped it apart with several powerful attacks. But, even then, Wain didn’t stop attacking. He knew that monsters were endurance creatures. Wain had to make sure that the Wyvern would never rise again.
The monster tried to somehow get out of this dangerous situation, but it failed. Wain was small and fast. While the Wyvern was huge, slow, and wounded.
Wain took advantage of bombs, tactics, and the advantage of his height and speed. In this situation, the Wyvern stood no chance.
Bam.
Wain made one last blow and ripped the heart from the Wyvern’s chest, then crushed it in one motion. The next moment a pink soul flew into his body.
Wain was covered from head to toe in blood. He didn’t like to get so dirty, especially in the secretions of his opponents, but Code of Light and Darkness had a small but pleasant bonus.
Whooosh.
Wain canceled the skill, his hair returned to normal, and his black and white armor evaporated. Along with that, all the blood and dirt from the monsters vanished from his body.
“Great, it was a dangerous battle. I wasted quite a lot of energy. I need to find a proper place to regain my strength.” Wain muttered.
Wain decided to concentrate and sense where the soul needed to unlock the third form was.
Suddenly, however, white-colored energy appeared in front of him. With each passing second, this energy grew larger and larger. It was like a tornado, capable of changing anything.
Wain knew intuitively what it was. He had seen these energy hundreds of times before and used it to become stronger. It was Soul Essence.
In the next moment, many messages appeared in front of Wain. Void was somewhat similar to Dungeon or Nest, but these territories could be quite different. Voids were part of the World of Darkness.
They could be compared to land on the planet, where, unlike water, different creatures could live. While the vast darkness outside the Voids was comparable to the oceans surrounding entire continents and continents.
[The owner of this Void, Wyvern Arkol, was defeated.]
[You were the one who killed the Wyvern Arkol and must become the new owner of this Void]
‘What?! I must become the new owner of this Void?’
Wain was shocked. Something like this had happened once before when he defeated the black robot samurai. Then he had the opportunity to become the new king of that Nest, but to do so, he had to defeat every pretender to that role.
Wain was not interested in this; he did not know what the conditions and duties of the king were. But, the most important reason was that he had no time or desire to fight every robot samurai. However, now was a very different situation.
[Do you want to use your name or alias?]
‘Hmm? A name? Alias? It’s probably some sort of registry, and I must be recorded somehow as the new owner of the area. Wain thought.
He didn’t ponder long and calmly said, “Alias.”
Wain assumed that now the other inhabitants of the World of Darkness, under certain circumstances, would be able to know that he was the owner of the area. He didn’t want to reveal his name since this was all happening in the World of Darkness. It was too dangerous.
[Choose your alias.]
Wain pondered. He thought about what to call himself, but a solution was found after a while.
Wain grinned and said, “Nameless King.”
[Unfortunately, you can’t use words like King, Emperor, Duke, etc., in an alias.]
‘Hmm, it’s not a random set of words. They’re all Titles of varying significance. Perhaps there is some sort of ranking system in the World of Darkness based on the influence of the creature?’ Wain pondered.
Wain nodded his head and said, “In that case, my alias would be Nameless.”
[Accepted.]
[You, Nameless, are now the new owner of Void – Ice Caves.]
[As long as you are the owner of this Void, all your stats are increased by 10. Your resistance to the element of ice is increased by 10%.]
[As long as you are within this Void, your stats are increased by 10%. Your resistance to the element of ice is increased by 30%.]
Wain was stunned. He didn’t expect that killing a massive wyvern would turn out such a colossal amount of pluses. He felt the power increase in his body, it was an incredible sensation, and it wasn’t everything yet.
[You are the ruler of this zone, and all creatures living here will fear you and tremble before your power. Most monsters will obey your orders. However, those who do not agree may challenge you].
“AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, this is unbelievable!” Suddenly Wain laughed. He understood the perks of this opportunity.
Whoooosh.
The next moment Soul Essence turned into a veritable vortex that entered Wain’s body, but a moment later, it burst out, and the energy began to spread throughout the area.
[Given your power and the power of your souls in Soul Altar, there is an adjustment to the area and the creatures that inhabit it.]
Wain was puzzled. He didn’t understand what was happening. It was like some kind of fantasy or magic. Only then did Wain begin to realize how mysterious and unimaginable the World of Darkness was.
Then many more messages appeared before Wain.
