BXBX NOVEL Chapter 483 Lothur's Decision
Slowly, the creature in one of Lothur\'s hands felt the end approaching it as its sights slowly darkened in the face of death.
During this, it saw over 200 years pass in its mind, recalling things it had forgotten due to previous events.
\'Damn it!\'
\'I failed in my mission, lost my memories, and now I\'m going to die to this abomination!\' It recognized the feeling it had felt the first time it had encountered Lothur and understood why this young man was so powerful.
\'Now the emperor...\' Unfortunately for it, its consciousness vanished before it had a chance to repent further and think about that individual it was previously serving.
As Lothur felt the life of the demon in front of him fading away, he continued to smile devilishly. But as he thought about what had happened this time, that he was in contact with something during the activation of his bloodline, he stepped forward to test something.
Getting close enough to the other enemy\'s body, Lothur used his left hand to touch that being. He was curious to see if he could cause another warning from the system by doing this.
And without being let down, Lothur achieved his goal, seeing the system informing him of new possibilities.
[Special forms of energy detected in the host\'s range...]
[Secondary abilities of affinities and resistances of the host came into sync with the host\'s bloodline...]
After that, that creature that had already lost much of its energy due to Lothur\'s bloodline stealing its vitality felt the base of its being beginning to fade away.
As this happened, new warnings from the system made it clear to Lothur what was happening.
[Host\'s affinity for the ice element increased by 15%...]
[Host\'s affinity for the darkness element increased by 11%...]
...
[Host\'s affinity for poisons increased by 13%...]
He saw each of his affinities with elements increasing.
Next, the progress bars of his resistance increased!
[Bronze-grade poisons resistance.]
[Progress: 45%]
...
[Progress: 51%]
...
[Silver-grade flame resistance.]
[Progress: 5%.]
...
[Progress: 7%]
...
[Bronze-grade ice resistance]
[Progress: 42%]
...
[Progress: 49%]
...
[Bronze-grade wood resistance.]
[Progress: 11%]
...
[Progress: 22%]
...
[Bronze-grade darkness element resistance.]
[Progress: 99%]
...
[Progress: 100%]
Of all his resistances, the only one that advanced in quality was the one for the darkness element, which was already at its limit.
For this resistance, Lothur felt that the source of Natural Laws was not only the strange being created by this labyrinth but also the demon\'s body.
As such, he gained a new qualitative advance in resistances, reaching 1% progression to Silver grade in that resistance!
The Mortal Aura benefited from this as well. Still, it did not rise so much that Lothur \'dreamed\' of another qualitative advance.
[Mortal Aura] [Rank: Bronze]
[Progress: 72%]
...
[PER: 162 -> 170.3]
...
[EVF: 0 -> 320]
Finally, Lothur felt that his bloodline ability had sucked out all the vitality of the demon and the being in the labyrinth, and he released those two bodies.
One of them broke into infinite pieces as it fell to the ground, totally petrified. It lost its previous state without its burning head or the dark mist at its feet.
As for the other being, it had finally died, and no sign of life remained in its skinny and dehydrated body. But there was a strange sensation within it, something that Lothur immediately recognized as the formation of a Soul Bone!
A Soul Bone formation was unique. First, it sucked in all the demonic energy and the remaining Natural Laws in the demon\'s body. Finally, it fused the demon\'s bloodline and special characteristics into one of its bones.
Lothur watched this process happening in front of him while using his visual ability to identify the bone forming in the demon\'s right leg.
That Soul Bone about to form would be a right fibula bone!
\'Great!\'
\'I don\'t have that bone yet!\' He sighed in relief, realizing that such a creature would not form a skull bone, something he already had.
Meanwhile, that being\'s right fibula was glowing brightly. At the same time, its yellowish outlines turned colorful, as was the case with Soul Bones.
It was no longer a normal demon bone. Instead, in a few moments, it had become an item of very high value, capable of giving a new ability or power bonus to the one who absorbed it.
In return, the demon\'s entire body shook as it lost all its foundation base, in a few moments turning to dust, leaving only that colorful bone behind.
Lothur saw this and clenched his fists, feeling that he should absorb this Soul Bone and leave it to resolve the situation with the giant level 17 toad later.
\'If it wants to kill me for \'stealing it,\' I\'ll have enough strength to protect myself or run away. But, on the other hand, if it agrees to trade, I will pay it back for this great opportunity.\' Lothur pondered, feeling it would be fair to reward that being, even after he had already gotten what he wanted.
Running away without paying for what he got would not be fair. Lothur had that in mind and intended to thank this place\'s beasts. But if they decided to kill him, he would have no choice but to run away.
Anyway, that was a subject for another time, so Lothur quickly went ahead with his plans and went towards the newly formed Soul Bone, which was glowing on the ground in front of him.
He ignored the item the other creature had left behind and placed one of his hands on that colorful bone!
[Monarch Demon Fibula Soul Bone] [Rank: Bronze]
[Feature: once absorption begins, it will replace the fibula bone in the right leg. It will become one of the 10 Soul Bones, with the ability called Black Flames. It also increases by 5% all physical characteristics and 10% all mental characteristics of the one who absorbs it.]
Lothur saw this and was pleased, feeling that he could further improve just those characteristics that were most difficult to raise.
With that, the system soon presented him with the option to absorb this Soul Bone!
[Absorb Monarch Demon Fibula Soul Bone?]
\'Yes!\'
In that instant, the Soul Bone glowed before it disappeared, being sucked up Lothur\'s right leg, disappearing from the area and positioning itself over his right fibula.
In the blink of an eye, any resistance that might have been there because of the demon\'s willpower in that bone disappeared, as the system was on Lothur\'s side to help him.
The Soul Bone began to fuse with that fibula, taking the place of the common bone, to build the second contact between Lothur and his spirit body.
This part of the process was not pleasant, so soon Lothur began to tremble in pain, using his best to resist the experience.
But since he had experienced it before, he did not feel so terrible this time.
The feeling of having his bones crushed and rebuilt was highly uncomfortable. Still, the worse was that his uncultivated soul was also connected to such a thing in this process.
Feeling his soul beginning to inflate uncontrollably, Lothur could not help but form an ugly expression on his face, trying hard not to scream.
\'I almost forgot how much it hurts!\'
