Chapter 26
Chapter 26: Evolution, Hellfire
Vincent gave some points to the sisters when they were in front of the dormitory. He then walked into his dorm.
His roommate, Nabil, was exercising. After a simple greeting, he was excited to return to his room.
Vincent was itching to use the superpower upgrade gem.
He shut his door and locked it.
Vincent took out the superpower upgrade gem from his backpack.
In an instant, seven-colored light filled the entire room.
A gentle yet powerful force surged out from the gem.
Vincent looked at the seven-colored light around him. He was surprised and had a feeling of adoration for it.
“So strong!”
Vincent muttered softly.
He could feel the immeasurable abundance of power that the gem possessed. The gem was only the size of a fingernail.
Even the three powers in his body were affected and became restless.
According to the system notification, he was required to inject his power into the evolved gem.
Once the power was injected, it would evolve.
Of course, the rate of evolution was very little.
Vincent was a little conflicted on which power he should evolve.
After thinking about it, Vincent decided to evolve Hellfire.
This was because Hellfire was very powerful. It was also the only power that he had revealed.
As compared to the two powers, Hellfire was more advantageous to him.
It was also because the other two powers, Speed Training and Monster Affinity were currently enough for him.
When Vincent made his decision, he reached for the superpower upgrade gem and grabbed it.
Boom!
Hellfire appeared and wrapped around the superpower upgrade gem.
The moment Hellfire wrapped around the superpower upgrade gem, the gem shattered and turned into white sand, flowing down from his fingers.
It disappeared before it landed on the ground.
Vincent could feel that there was something different about Hellfire.
As he retracted Hellfire back into his body, Vincent’s eyes suddenly widened.
In the center of his flame-shaped pupil, an extremely tiny five-colored gemstone appeared.
It was mysterious and dignified.
Vincent’s felt like his entire person became much more profound.
A minute later, the five-colored gemstone in his pupil disappeared, and Vincent looked exactly the same as before.
“Check the character panel.”
Vincent could not wait to open the character panel.

Vincent’s eyes lit up when he saw the huge change in the character’s interface.
The system previously mentioned that the evolution rate was very small; therefore, he thought that it would be good enough to even have a 10% increase.
He did not expect that it would actually increase by 34%!
In other words, he would be able to complete the evolution of Hellfire with only two more gems.
Vincent then released Hellfire as he wanted to see how much more powerful Hellfire was after the upgrade. His Hellfire power evolved by one-third.
Boom!
Hellfire rose, with Vincent in the center, spewing out in all directions.
The black flames carried a hint of purple and were also more vicious than before.
It was mysterious, noble, and tyrannical!
After careful observation, Vincent discovered that the power and speed of Hellfire had increased by one-third.
His control over Hellfire had also become much stronger.
Previously, Vincent still needed the help of the sisters to kill the Lightning Eagle.
However, after the upgrade, Vincent knew that he could kill it himself.
As he released his superpower, Vincent realized that even his power consumption had reduced but he did not know by how much.
“Looks like I will need to make a trip to the superpower training room.”
Vincent put away Hellfire and muttered softly to himself.
He then went to open his room door.
Just as he opened the door, he saw Nabil walk out of his room. He was completely covered in black smoke.
There was black smoke coming out from the door; the smoke was surging outwards.
“This is?”
Vincent’s eyes widened. “Did you fail to refine the equipment again?”
Nabil nodded awkwardly and chuckled.
He then straightened his face and asked Vincent, “Vincent, have you been to the Black Hole?”
Vincent shook his head. “No, but I just came back from the wild.”
When Nabil heard that Vincent had never been to the black hole, his expression became somewhat dejected.
However, when he heard that Vincent had been to the wild, his blood immediately boiled.
“How is the wild? What kind of requirements do you need for your equipment?”
Vincent looked at Nabil, who was in ragged clothes and was speechless for a while.
He should be more concerned about whether he was okay.
His entire body was charred black. If he said that he had been barbecued, people would believe him!
“Let’s not talk about that for now. Are you alright?”
Vincent had a worried look on his face.
Nabil looked down at his body and shook his head.
Black particles flew in all directions.
“It’s nothing. It’s always a small problem.”
Vincent touched his forehead helplessly.
He told Nabil about the field training process and equipment-related aspects.
Nabil listened and nodded in understanding. He later decided to return to his room and did not say anything further to Vincent.
Vincent shrugged and went downstairs to leave the dormitory.
Just as he reached the superpower training room, Vincent’s phone rang.
He looked at his phone and saw that Chris had invited him into a chat room.
In the chat room, there were only six people including Chris.
Vincent, Angelina, and Nabil were also in the group. There was another student, but Vincent did not know who it was.
“Students, in about seven days, the new special students will start school.”
“During that time, I will arrange a meeting between the new and old specially recruited students.”
“I hope that everyone can make it!”
Vincent nodded. It would indeed be helpful to meet specially recruited senior students as he would be able to know the gap between him and the other students.
After replying, Vincent kept his phone and began to test the evolved Hellfire.
In order to ensure that he was safe, Vincent doubled the gravity and waved his hand to summon Hellfire. He controlled the Hellfire to stay the size of a shot put.
Vincent could clearly feel that he still had some energy left to control Hellfire.
Out of curiosity, he summoned one.
Vincent did not feel like he had reached his limit until he summoned five fireballs.
He controlled the five fireballs and was able to change their shapes into arrows, swords, broadswords, fire nets, and others.
It was as easy as lifting weights!
Suddenly, Vincent realized that he could also divert his attention and control the five fireballs to attack in various directions.
With such skill, he would be able to defeat monsters easily. This is especially so if he encountered a situation similar to before, where he had to attack both the Color-Changing Rhinoceros and Underground Lizard at the same time.
After adjusting the gravity by four times, Vincent could feel his entire body sinking, and his control over Hellfire was no longer easy on his fingers.
However, it was not too different. This meant that the evolved Hellfire had a very high degree of integration with him.
Before he knew it, it was already nighttime.
Vincent returned to his dorm to rest. The next day, he continued training.
Just like that, it had been 7 days. Vincent did not rest at all. He lived a two-point, one-line life.
On this particular day that Vincent was training, his chat group had a notification after being silent for 7 days.
