The Invincible Full-Moon System

Chapter 301: More Than Expected

"Why did you smell like a flower?", Adhara said from the side with a frown.

She has been around Rex since the first time Rex enters university life, and through that time Adhara is sure that Rex has never smelled like a flower before.

The realization kicks in as Adhara squints her eyes more and more.

Rex's eyes open abruptly and saw Adhara's questioning glare, he pulls his shirt to his nose before he replied with a bead of cold sweat on the side of his face, "I don't smell like that"

"Rex, you're a Werewolf so stop lying to me", Adhara said sharply.

Hearing this, Rex can only smile wryly before finally he sighs and explains himself.

Rex explained that he and Evelyn had a deal to get the dirt on Wesley Atkins since Hans is prying around them and Rex can feel it, so Rex went to Evelyn's room a couple of times because of that.

"For her scent to linger on you, you two seems quite close", Adhara said sarcastically.

She folds her arms below her chest as she turns her head to the side pouting, "I can't be seen weak against her, so of course, I need to provoke her too", Rex replied.

Adhara's pout turns into a fierce glare before she said, "Next time, I'll come with you"

A couple of hours later,

Rex opens his eyes slowly, he blinks a couple of times to adjust to his surrounding before he saw Adhara by the door.

After rubbing his eyes, Rex looks back and finds Adhara is talking with someone.

'Edward?', Rex thought as he saw the person outside of the door.

Since the door is opened a little, Rex can't quite see but he saw somekind of a wooden box that Adhara gives to Edward.

Rex then called, "Edward!"

Hearing Rex's voice, both of them turn their heads towards Rex in surprise.

Adhara immediately hurried Edward to leave before she closes the door under Rex's confused gaze, she then walks back to the bed as if nothing happened.

"What are you doing? I need Edward to pick up someone", Rex said in confusion.

He didn't understand why Adhara hurried Edward away, Rex just woke up and saw this weird scene which makes him dizzy.

"Eh?", Adhara looks in the door direction before she turns her head back to Rex and said, "Let me do that then, Edward is busy with something"

"Since when did Edward busy?", Rex said with a slight chuckle.

But Adhara shakes her head and insisted, "Just let me do it, I'm bored anyway"

"Fine, take this and go to the Wailing Asylum. You'll be meeting up with a UWO member there that will lead you to meet with a guy called John Webster", Rex finally explains what Adhara should do.

After a moment, Adhara is already ready and was about to leave.

But before she can leave, "Take this. Use this on your face to morph your face, it's better to be safe", Rex said while handing Adhara a vial of transparent lotion.

"Also, give Linda a call to brief you about the plan", Rex added.

Adhara takes the lotion before she gives Rex a peck on the cheek and left.

A smile appears on Rex's face for a brief moment before it disappears, Rex then opened the inventory and looks at the Blood Moon Essence item.

<Blood Moon Essence>

This item contains a fraction of the magical power of the Blood Moon, it's a priceless item for any Werewolf that has the Blood Moon as their birth moon. With the power of the Blood Moon Essence, any Werewolf probability of being accepted and getting the Blood Moon King Mark will be increased. For the user, using this item will instantly complete one Blood Moon Quest.

Reading this, Rex can't help but smile as he looks at the item's description.

Without a doubt, the Blood Moon Essence was a priceless item just like the description of the item said, 'Instant finish? That's basically a cheat', Rex thought ecstatically.

The first Blood Moon Quest is hard enough,

Rex needs to massacre an entire city using his Werewolf form to satisfy the Blood Moon's Thirst, he can just take down a lower-rank Supernatural city but if he were to finish the quest then why not farm exp as well.

Based on the first quest alone, the Blood Moon Quest will definitely be hard.

So having this item will help Rex in finishing a hard quest without any struggle, he even will instantly get the reward just by using this item.

After checking the first item, Rex takes out the other item.

"Woah!", The mutated plant that Rex got from the Exchequer appeared and instantly soil the air in the room instantly with a steel scent.

Rex puts the plant on the ground lightly as he looks at the mutated plants in awe.

Even after already seeing the mutated plants back at the Exchequer, Rex is still surprised just by how bizarre the mutated plants are that has human ribcage-like leaves and human spine-like stalk that is very eye-catching.

'Let's see what this plant is for', Rex thought as he opens the description.

<Bonecrypt Kasvi – Level 8>

This plant is a mutated version of a Bugleweed that can only grow and be nurtured in a place filled with corpses, the High Undeadlord used this plant to strengthen their body even further. The remaining power that is still left on the corpses is food for this plant, and after numerous years absorbing the corpses' lingering power this plant has reached the Eighth Rank Mutated Plant.

Obtained a substantial Increase in Endurance, Intelligence, and Mental stats.

'As expected of the highest item in the Carabidis Exchequer', Rex thought as he nodded his head.

This weird and bizarre-looking plant is placed on the topmost place higher than the other items even the Amuerus Katana which is a very powerful weapon as it is, so it's not that shocking to find that this plant is an even higher value item.

After reading the description, Rex then asks the system, 'How do I use this plant?'

<Dissolving one of the Bonecrypt Kasvi leaves with Dark Water before applying it to the body>

Rex searched for the Dark Water in the shop before he frowns upon seeing the price of the True Dark Water, '4,000 Gold? That's too expensive', he thought with a sigh.

But when he was about to buy the True Dark Water anyway, a notification suddenly appeared.

<Dark Linzite Water is also a variety of Dark Water>

With that notification, Rex immediately takes out the basket of black water that Kyran made with the Linzite and puts it on the ground.

Since the room is quite spacious, the basket thankfully fits the room.

Rex then stretches out his hand to take one of the leaves of the Bonecrypt Kasvi, he was a bit hesitant to touch the leaves with his bare hand.

If not for the system saying so, Rex will not touch the plant.

The ribcage-like leaves that are grey in color and also emitting red light look toxic, but if it's toxic then the system will definitely tell him so he's not worried.

Krrk!

Rex twist the stalk as it makes a weird boney sound, and after putting a bit more power,

Crack!

The stalk snap just like a bone would, Rex then takes the leaf that he just took snaps a bit of it, and dip it on the Dark Linzite Water.

After he pulled it out from the water, Rex saw that it started dissolving.

The boney leaf that is hard and stiff turns soft upon one dip on the Dark Water, it didn't take long for it to completely dissolve into a grey sticky substance.

With that, Rex then takes off his clothes before doing the same procedure.

This time, Rex dipped the entirety of the leaf before he quickly pull it out and started to rub the grey substance all over his body just as the system said.

<Absorbing Bonecrypt Kasvi Level 8 Leaf…>

He doesn't feel anything as he rubs the grey substance around his body.

But the more he rubs the grey substance onto his body, Rex can feel something is changing within him as his body turns hot.

The heat doesn't hurt him but instead, it almost feels comfortable.

Unknown to Rex, the bones around his body started to have a shade of grey as the grey substance seeped into his skin and started changing his bones composition.

Rex felt quite more heat around his chest, but it still didn't burn to the point of hurting him.

After a moment, notifications from the system appeared.

<Absorbing Bonecrypt Kasvi Level 8 Leaf Completed!>

<The user's Endurance stats has been increased by 260!>

<The user's Intelligence stats has been increased by 150!>

<The user's Mental stats has been increased by 80!>

Just like that, Rex's stats almost got increased by 500 points with just one leaf.

It makes Rex widen his eyes in surprise as he didn't expect the increasing amount to this much, this is like having a hundred levels up in one go!

Without waiting for a second, Rex immediately grabs another leaf.

He immediately dipped the leaf and started rubbing the dissolving leaf on his body again, but after a moment the system's notification didn't appear.

Even after the leaf had already dissolved completely, the notification didn't appear.

'I can only use one of them?', Rex thought in disappointment.

Knowing that he got an amazing mutated plant that can raise his stats like crazy, Rex impulsively uses another leaf without checking that his body can only absorb it one time.

Because of that, he just wasted one of the leaves which is very valuable.

It pained him a bit knowing how effective the leaf he wasted was, he even curses himself for getting greedy with the Bonecrypt Kasvi.

'Let's give to the others', Rex thought as he stands up.

But before he was about to leave his room, the door suddenly knocked lightly.

Rex opened the door, he looks down and find Ryze standing in front of the door with a troubled expression that seems to be odd since he never went to Rex's room like this.

"Ryze? What's wrong?", Rex asks curiously.

Hearing Rex's voice, Ryze was startled for a bit before he brace himself and said, "Can I talk to you?"

"Sure, Come in", Rex replied as he makes way for Ryze to get in.

Inside the room, Ryze is standing stiffly before Rex signals for him to sit on the dressing table chair while Rex sits on the bed with a curious look.

"What do you want to talk about?", Rex asks lightly.

Ryze went stiff for a moment before he reach for his pocket and takes out a white paper.

With a bit of hesitation, Ryze gives Rex the rolled white paper.

Rex looks at the rolled white paper in confusion before he read its content, he read the content with a frown before he looks back at Ryze, "What's the meaning of this?", he asks while holding up the white rolled paper.

"Do you still have relatives? Why didn't you tell me about this?", Rex added in confusion.

Under Rex's gaze, Ryze then said meekly, "I thought they're dead…"

Without giving any attention to Ryze's answer, Rex then asks again, "This M, What does it stand for? Is it the name of your relative?"

"It stands for Micheline, my brother", Ryze replied while holding back his tears.

Hearing this, Rex then asks, "Your brother's name is Micheline?"

"Well no matter, If your brother comes here I'll just hand you over to him since you're not a slave and you can just go with him", Rex added while shrugging his shoulders.

The only reason Rex let Ryze here is that he thought Ryze doesn't have any place to go.

But now that his supposed to be dead brother wanted to take him away, then Rex will gladly let Ryze go back with this Micheline.

"NO!", Ryze suddenly shouted.

Rex was surprised for a second, the shout surprised him and Ryze's response surprise him more.

"Why? he's your brother?", Rex said in confusion.

Ryze then shakes his head repeatedly and answered, "I don't want to be with him, he left me when those guys come and get me! He's not my brother"

Seeing the tears fall from Ryze's eyes, Rex massages his forehead with a frown.

"He's your brother, I can't just say no to hi-", Rex was about to lecture Ryze but suddenly he stop mid-sentence, he widen his eyes as he realized something.

Ryze looks at Rex dazed in confusion, "Rex?", he called lightly.

But Rex is in his thoughts as he thought of a probability that troubles him, 'Don't tell me that this is the Atkins doing….'
