I Became A Zompirewolf

__

Vampire Skill: [Skill Absorption] activated. Attempting to absorb the skill [Cognitive Assassination] from the prey.

Required gene to learn the skill: Any gene from a Space Faring species.

Genes of a Transcendent species are present in the host's body. Proceeding with absorption.

Due to the high efficiency of [Skill Absorption], complete absorption happened, further upgrading the skill to suit the user.

As a result, the active skill [Cognitive Assassination (lvl 4)] has been turned into an active skill [Psychic Massacre (lvl 7)].

(Note: The user can view the skill effects of the new skill on the stats tab.)

"Thanks to being in space, I can earn a lot of powerful skills and make them even deadlier," Ashton mumbled while wiping the blood from his lips, "If only their blood would taste a bit better, it would be easier to swallow."

[... you really need to pay attention to what you say.]

"I'll... try to pay more attention."

[That aside, Psychic Massacre... it's the first time I have heard of this skill. You would probably want to use it. You know, just to check the effects.]

Ashton nodded.

Even after killing the aliens, he wasn't feeling well. Initially, he thought tormenting the aliens would give him some peace in his scarred mind. However, there was not an ounce of peace in his head even after plastering the two aliens on the walls around him.

True to his word, Ashton killed Chak 'Mandai and Olk Yoga in the most gruesome way possible. Their innards splattered all around the floor and the walls could attest to that. Hell, even he was covered in a blend of their blood, flesh and organs.

However, even in his hate-driven state, Ashton recognised the value of the assassins. After all, if they could fool him into almost killing himself, they were more than qualified enough to join his side.

He told them so and to nobody's surprise, both Chak 'Mandai and Olk Yoga, immediately accepted Ashton's deal... hoping to escape death.

Sadly, there was one crucial step Ashton would have to take to ensure their loyalty. It was pretty simple actually. After all, Sven, Celeste, and Atlas... all of them had to go through the same procedure... the universally famous procedure called death.

"How long are you going to stand in the shadows for?"

Ashton barked and a shadow soldier made from the remnants of both the aliens kneeled in front of them. Ashton did not resurrect both of them as he simply couldn't. The cooldown of the [Resurrection] skill was quite high and so he decided to do something weird.

Instead of resurrecting one of them, Ashton used [Disassociation] to preserve some part of both  Chak 'Mandai and Olk Yoga, and combined them to resurrect both of them at the same time, but in a single vessel.

If his plan worked, he would have gained quite a strong follower. But in the event of failure, two perfectly resurrectable corpses would get ruined.  It was a gamble, but it ultimately paid off and Ashton even learned two new skills in the process.

One of which was the evolved skill that the assassins used on him. The skills that were known as the [Psychic Massacre] and the last skill was the other half of the [Disaasociation] skill... [Association].

As the name suggested, while the [Disassociation] skill can be used to disassociate or separate things from one another, the [Association] skill can be used to bring back to separate things together.

It was thanks to this skill that Ashton was able to create a single shadow soldier from two different people. Although the result was worth it, he had to keep a lot of things in his mind while carefully assembling the corpse.

>[Psychic Massacre]:  This skill allows the user to temporarily throw their target into a pit of despair and control their actions to a certain extent. The skill can be cast as long as the target is within the user's line of sight. Also, once the skill has been cast, the target will suffer from hallucinations and would be completely unaware of their surrounding.

Creatures having admirably high resistance to psychic attacks can free themselves from this skill. However, the use of this skill comes at a cost.

Grade: Moderate (level 7)

Cooldown: 10 Minutes

Cost: 40 Intelligence points or 1000 mana will be consumed per use.

Can be used: 10 times a day

Condition to upgrade the skill: Use the skill and force a high-levelled target to kill at least people around them before the skill duration is over. Complete this feat 3 times for the skill to evolve.

Having taken care of things there, Ashton turned to his shadow assassin. That was the class of his new summon which suited the creature's appearance. However, Ashton was yet to give the shadow a name to make him completely submit to his will.

"Raven... it suits you," Ashton mumbled after thinking for a couple of seconds.

"Thank you, master. I shall live up to your expectations and be the messenger of your might-"

"Yeah, Yeah... for now, get inside [Valhalla]." Ashton cut him off, "I'm sure your comrades would be pleased to meet you and show you the ropes."

Raven bowed and left without a word. No sooner was he gone than Celeste's voice echoed in his head. Since Ashton was connected to his summons, they could contact him anytime without verbally speaking.

"Master, I have found five corpses here... but there's no sign of the lady you sent me to look for."

"I assume all of the corpses have a missing head?" Ashton asked to which Celeste replied in affirmative, "So her bodyguards are dead but not the mercenaries... weird."

Without wasting any more time, Ashton immediately contacted the mermen thinking they would know something. Instead, when they finally received the call, all Ashton could hear were the sounds of someone fighting.

"What's happening there?" He barked into the communicator.

"What do you think? We are under attack! The fucking terrorists couldn't find Eula and now they are attacking us to take control of the ship!" Qamnol screamed back, "The doors are holding them back for now, but I don't think they will for much longer. We need help right now!"

"... where's Eula?"

"Vimur and the rest of them were on floor B34. I'm not sure whether they are still there or not." Qamnol replied while the captain tried his best to make an escape.

"Hold tight! I'll be there in a moment."
