Chapter 2: Customize Bone Claws

Ian’s eyes lit up. System! He actually received a golden finger!

What can this system do though?

DING!

[The Strongest Body Customization System allows the host to earn biomass to modify, change, and add body parts. As long as the host has enough biomass. You can even change the race to become a Zombie.]

What kind of zombie explanation is this? Who wants to become a Zombie? Compared to Zombie, being a lesser vampire is a lot more acceptable.

Ian complained in his heart. Jokes aside, he got the gist of the function of the system.

He looked at the werewolves who were now 430 meters. They ran even more faster than before, looking at them with bloodthirst.

Daniel and Kate swallowed. Barseagle clenched his fist, his sharp black nails dug on his skin.

‘Status!’ Ian hurried called out in his mind. He had a feeling.

To overcome this challenge, it would depend on his system!

Name: Ian

Race: Lesser Vampire

-Body Structure-

Internal:

External:

Biomass: 0

Ian looked at the minimalistic screen that only he could see. As soon as his eyes landed on the screen, he was speechless.

What’s the situation. 0 biomass? How is this supposed to help their situation?

‘System, how do you earn biomass?’

DING!

[Just eat flesh of creatures to extract their biomass. The amount of Biomass depends on the strength of the eaten creature.]

Hearing this, Ian couldn’t help but squint. Isn’t this cannibalistic!?

Fortunately, he was now a vampire. It strangely made him more adaptable to gory things. Ian didn’t know if he wanted to be glad or not.

Gradually, his eyes became determined. It’s an eat or be eaten!

[Would you like to open the novice gift package?]

Open it!

Although surprise, Ian had no time for bullshits because the werewolves were now 231 meters. As for how can they see at such distance.

Vampires had naturally enhanced five senses. This and the inhuman regenerative qualities are what made vampires barely compete with werewolves at the early stages.

[You received 1000 biomass!]

At this time, Ian received information in his mind how to use the system.

He just needs to visualize what he wants to do with his body.

Ian began to think. What does he need now? They’re about to fight werewolves that were physically superior to them in terms of toughness of the body or raw strength.

So, it’s best to increase his defensive or offensive capabilities…

Ian closed his eyes and began to design an exoskeleton in his mind slightly similar to the structure of Ant’s exoskeleton but a lot suitable to the human body. It covers the vital points such as the neck, chest, etc…

As for the material? It has the durability of steel and lightness of a carbon alloy that most road bikes on Earth are made of.

[2,100 biomass are required the host!]

So much?

Ian’s hopeful eyes turned to disappointment. As expected, his emgues was right, the bigger the body part, and the special the material, the larger the amount of Biomass he needs.

He only has 1,000 biomass currently so he could only scap the ideas in his mind such as wings for flying, steel metal, etc… No doubt, those things required astronomical number of biomass. Ian doesn’t have a choice but to opt for a practical but affordable one.

Ian began to visualize claws, like that of wolverine. Located in the fist, retractable steel claws.

[1,346 biomass.]

Damn it! Why!? Is it because it’s retractable!?

Ian couldn’t help but feel a tingw of frustration in his heart. His emotions welled up.

[Retractable is only a small part of the reason. More importantly, the material steel made it more costly. Do you want to take my suggestion?]

‘Because it’s steel? Why so? What do you suggest to do?’

[Because steel is a foreign material for your body. An additional 200 points had been added to suppress your body’s immunse system for responding and prevent rejection. This made the cost that normally needs 1,146 biomass a little higher.]

‘That’s it. Being able to prevent rejection reaction… System you are so powerful.’ To be honest, Ian felt awe for the ability of the system.

[I suggest to change the material to bones instead. Bones at isn’t different from yours wouldn’t require additional cost for supressing the immune system because you don’t need to worry about rejection.]

Damn, why didn’t he think of this?

Ian immediately followed the system’s advice. He changed it from steel claws to shart bones claws.

[987 biomass. Would you like to proceed?]

Of course!

Suddenly, Ian felt a itchy sensation from his wrist, to his knuckles, unto his fingers. The bones in the entire hand began grow and restructure itself according to the retractable bones claws that Ian had visualize.

Of course, he took inspiration of Wolverine film on Earth.

Since he couldn’t make a defensive body part. He opted for offense. With this, his chances against the damned werewolves would increase. Sharper than knife, and bones are naturally durable. Only slightly inferior to steel!

Ian tried his best to act normal but he was already cursing inside. Fucking painful!

He felt that hundred of ants were gnawing the bones on his hands and wrist, tearing it apart.

The process took only ten seconds in reality before the pain subsided.

At this moment, Ian instinctively felt that if he willed it. A bones claws would slid up on both of his hands!

“Ready to fight!”

Captain Barseagle walked in the front as he prepared to hold back the two eight feet werewolves in height.

The werewolves were salvitating, their eyes gave the feeling that they want to tear you apart.

Ian felt a chill on his spine just from this. He was just a normal civilian on Earth. Although he was now a vampire. He doesn’t have the mentality of a vampire should have. After all, he just recently took over. How can he adjust so fast?

At most, he could force himself to eat flesh.

How to fight now?

Barseagle rushed towards the two werewolves. His figure turned blur, leaving a fierce sound on his trail.

Kate and Liz ganged up upon one of the three remaining werewolves.

Now, there are only two left for Ian and Daniel. In just a moment, the sound of clashing echoed.

Barseagle, true vampire, managed to suppress the two lesser werewolves. With a sidestep, the claws of one of them, pivoted and threw a right hook on the werewolf furry head of werewolf, causing it to take few step backs and let out a painful howl. Barseagle didn’t waste this opportunity, his nails dug on its eyes, causing it to bleed profusely.

The other werewolf became vigilant and didn’t immediately provide a back up.

“This is the difference between a lesser werewolf and true vampire.’ Barseagle smirked at the wailing werewolf and at the other one that was giving him a menacing look.

On the other hand, Ian had engaged with one of them. He didn’t immediately show his claws though.

“Arghhh!!”

Ian clutched his shoulders in pain. The attack of his opponent was just to fast for his eyes to follow and the claws was too sharp. The werewolf became even more excited as it saw Ian’s mangled shoulder.

“You fuck!” Ian cursed at the werewolf.
