Chapter 142: Blood Soul of the Elf Goddess,

Rover was startled and opened his eyes wide, seeing that he was standing in the basement, with Selina and Elith beside him.

Selina was talking to Elith about the current situation, while he was still standing there, his gaze sweeping around as if searching for the person who had just spoken.

However, he could not find anyone at all.

A trace of confusion rose in his heart. It had been a woman’s voice, and even stranger than that… the voice had felt very familiar.

So familiar that he had almost thought he was hearing a loved one he had not seen in a long time.

“How strange…” Rover muttered, but he did not want to think too much about it anymore.

The priority right now was to become stronger, at the very least strong enough to face those terrifying existences, so that he would have enough qualifications to negotiate with them.

Bringing Elith and Selina back with him, they suddenly saw a man with a deathly pale face, long hanging hair, and a cruel smile, as if he were looking at prey.

Rover frowned and did not want to pay attention to him.

But at that moment, Amed took a step forward and blocked Rover’s path.

“Rover, right?” Amed said with a smile. “We meet again. I’m Ameb.”

As he spoke, he extended his skinny hand, little more than skin stretched over bone, as if he intended to shake Rover’s hand.

Rover did not shake it. Instead, he frowned at him, his gaze carrying a trace of scrutiny and a bit of vigilance, his heavy voice sounding out, “What do you want?”

Amed smiled and withdrew his hand. He was neither angry nor disappointed, and the smile remained on his face. “I only want to cooperate with you.”

“Ah! Cooperate with me? By cursing me?” Rover said with disdain.

“No! No! No!” Amed smiled, his voice cold as ice. “It was only a little test to see whether you were qualified to cooperate with me or not. Of course, you passed. I… allow you to cooperate with me.”

“Is that so?” Rover laughed mockingly. “But I have no intention of cooperating with you. I think you should find someone stronger to cooperate with instead.”

After saying that, Rover left. When Selina passed by Amed, his eyes were so icy that it looked as though he would slash him to death the next second.

Although Elith did not know who Amed was, seeing that he was openly hostile toward Rover, she also became wary of him.

Watching their departing backs, Amed licked his lips, his pupils shrinking into slits like a snake’s, while a cold and cruel smile appeared on his face. “Another new one… that bastard really is lucky. If… I could take his place, then…”

As Amed laughed, he took out a piece of paper cut into the rough shape of a human figure. He stretched out his hand, and in it was a short strand of hair.

He placed the strand of hair on the paper doll, then pressed it firmly into the paper with two fingers as if trying to fuse them together.

Then… a flame rose up and burned the entire paper doll to ashes.

Amed revealed a pleased smile, then turned around and walked off in the opposite direction.

…

When he returned to the room, Rover felt a bit uneasy. He kept thinking about meeting Amed, and it was likely that the man had placed a curse on him.

Rover frowned and said, “Monica, come into the bedroom with me.”

Seeing the serious look on Rover’s face, Monica knew clearly that something was wrong and that it was not because Rover wanted to do that kind of thing with her.

Monica hurriedly went into the room, and once the door closed, the soundproofing was so good that the others could not hear anything at all.

At this moment, Elith was so stunned she could barely believe what she was seeing after entering the room.

Too much information had flooded into her mind, especially that Legendary special effect, Garden of Eden.

Even when she saw the Thunder Dragon defense tower, she realized that this room was anything but ordinary.

Not even the strongest Survivor from her era had ever been this terrifying.

How was this an ordinary room? This was an impregnable fortress.

Even the abilities of each person in the room were unbelievably powerful. If she had not fused with the Spidary Queen’s bloodline, then she would probably have been the most useless person in the room.

Even that girl in the wheelchair could use her ability to manipulate everything around her, far surpassing what Elith had once been as an ordinary Survivor.

“Surprised?” Nanoe walked closer and gently stroked her head.

Although Elith was a little startled, she did not resist. On the contrary, she could feel that the woman before her was not only beautiful, but also incredibly gentle and warm.

With just one smile from Nanoe, Elith calmed down.

Nanoe smiled and said, “I’m making dinner. Can you help me?”

“Ah! Sure!” Hearing that, Elith was delighted and hurried into the kitchen with Nanoe.

Morie frowned as she looked at Elith’s back, then softly asked, “Is Nanoe not going to let her get used to our situation first?”

Selina sat on the sofa and said with a smile, “No need! Elith is new, and she’s a little shy, so if she just sits there doing nothing, she’ll only feel even more awkward.”

“Letting her do a few small chores will make her feel more at ease and help her feel like she fits in better. While she’s working, the information we tell her will be easier for her to absorb.”

Hearing that, Morie was genuinely surprised. But remembering earlier, even though she had just arrived in this room and was still in a wheelchair, Nanoe had asked her to do a few simple tasks too.

At the time, she had felt very comfortable, as if she were part of this room, not useless, and with no one looking at her with pity.

“You’re right…” Morie said softly. “Nanoe truly is a perfect woman.”

“Of course!” Selina said with a smile. “She’s the first wife. All we have to do is listen to her.”

Hearing the words ’first wife,’ Morie’s face instantly flushed red, but then she said in a low voice, “A life like this… is actually quite good.”

…

Inside the room, Rover frowned and asked, “Can you sense it?”

Monica still had her eyes tightly shut, then slowly opened them and looked at Rover. She took the puppet out of her backpack and held it in front of him.

“This is…” Rover frowned, looking at the puppet in confusion.

Suddenly, the puppet’s head split open into two halves, forming a grotesque mouth filled with countless shark-like teeth.

A stream of black energy flew out from Rover’s body, then was swallowed by the puppet’s horrifying mouth.

After swallowing all of that black energy, the puppet trembled slightly, its mouth closed, and it returned to its original state.

“It’s done, Master!” Monica said with a smile.

Rover nodded and softly asked, “Is that your new ability?”

Monica nodded. As she put the puppet back into her backpack, she said, “That’s right! Thanks to the special effect from Garden of Eden, I was able to unlock the potential of this Class. Master, I’ll do my best to become useful to you.”

Rover nodded and let Monica go outside. Then, his gaze fell on the two supply crates he had received after completing the mission.

However, his eyes did not linger on them for long before shifting to the evolution serums he was currently holding, along with the vial of Elf blood Selina had brought back.

Earlier, he had not had enough Omni Points, so he could not upgrade these things. But now, he had enough Omni Points, so he could upgrade all of these serums to the highest possible level.

Rover checked once more. Currently, he had 1 low-grade evolution serum, 1 mid-grade evolution serum, 1 perfect evolution serum, 3 vials of zombie virus, and 1 vial of Elf blood.

He rubbed his chin, thought for a moment, then ordered, “Upgrade all evolution serums to the highest level.”

[Ding! To upgrade 3 evolution serums to Epic grade, 120,000 Omni Points are required. Do you wish to pay?]

“So Epic is the highest grade?” Rover muttered.

[Ding! The quality of the evolution serums is not high. At most, they can only be upgraded to Epic grade.]

Rover nodded and ordered, “Good! Accept!”

[Ding! You have successfully paid 120,000 Omni Points, remaining: 6,407,000. You have received – Epic Evolution Serum.]

[Evolution Serum – Epic]

[Type: Serum]

[Description: After use, immediately increases your own strength by 3 times. There is a high chance of obtaining the special physique of a race from Rank A – S.]

[Note: This type of evolution serum can only be used once.]

Rover frowned, inwardly calculating how to distribute these 3 vials among the 5 girls outside.

Nanoe, Selina, Monica, Morie, and Elith.

But he could exclude Elith and Selina. Right now, Elith was fusing with the Spidary Queen’s bloodline, while Selina was fusing with the heart of the Underworld Angel, so they would not need this type of evolution serum.

Because of that, the only ones who needed to use these evolution serums were Nanoe, Monica, and Morie.

He made his decision inwardly, then turned his attention to the 3 vials of Zombie Virus and silently ordered in his heart, “Upgrade them to the highest level.”

[Ding! To upgrade 3 vials of Zombie Virus to S grade, 52,000 Omni Points are required.]

“Only to S grade?” Rover felt a little disappointed, but he did not care too much and said, “Agreed!”

[Ding! You have successfully paid 52,000 Omni Points. Remaining: 6,355,000 Omni Points.]

[Zombie Virus – S]

[Type: Serum]

[Description: After use, can unconditionally awaken a talent or supernatural ability compatible with the user’s current genetic code.]

[Note: Each person can only use it once in their lifetime.]

Rover rubbed his chin, feeling that this thing was very suitable to be used together with the Evolution Serum.

After evolving, using the Zombie Virus afterward would awaken a suitable supernatural ability.

Finally, Rover focused on the vial of Elf blood and muttered inwardly, “Hopefully, this thing won’t disappoint me.”

“Upgrade the vial of Elf blood to the highest level.”

[Ding! To upgrade an ordinary vial of Elf blood to – Blood Soul of the Elf Goddess, Legendary Rank, you need to pay 2,700,000 Omni Points.]

Looking at the required amount of Omni Points, Rover took a deep breath, but thinking that this thing would definitely have an enormous effect, he made his decision without the slightest hesitation.

“Accept!”

At that very moment, the vial of blood in Rover’s hand emitted a dazzling radiance, like a miniature sun, and then… disappeared.

Rover: “??!!!”
