There was no need for Dilan to fight anymore. He could just watch how everything unfolds itself in front of him while supervising the girls, Williams and Sven to make sure that they would be fine.
As a safety precaution, Dilan used the Blood Eclipse Necklace to summon a huge black Gate.
The Gate released black miasma and the surrounding temperature decreased rapidly as a blood curdling scream blasted through the surrounding.
The scream originated from the black Gate that was filled with an abyss-like liquid. Dilan didn't pay much attention to the Gate even though bony hands slowly appeared out of the abyss-like liquid.
Dilan saw the long talon like fingers curl around the frame of the Gate tightly but he was not fazed by that.
"Protect these five humans!" He ordered the moment a huge Skeletal Head of a Gorilla or something that looked similar to one protruded out of the black liquid.
Afterward, Dilan turned around before activating [Taunt] to make sure that all monsters in the surroundings would focus their attacks on him.
"They will focus on me, just pull out one or two to fight them whenever you guys are ready!" Dilan declared and his people nodded their heads, readying themselves to fight.
Simultaneously, they stared at Dilan, wondering how high his current stats were. After all, he had defeated the two powerhouses whose fight destroyed the whole Kobold settlement.
Even if they didn't know the Tier of the two powerhouses, they could roughly gauge how strong they had been. Gauging the monsters' strength was much easier than doing the same with Dilan even though they knew that Dilan was still at the second Tier.
Dilan activated all of his abilities at the same time before he dashed toward the most crowded area of the Kobold settlement. It was mostly built out of mud, wood and stones, and there was no sign of modern construction.
However that was not something Dilan had expected to find on this planet, where everything seemed to be controlled by intelligent monsters.
He considered annihilating the whole Kobold settlement with a simple, yet powerful attack but he decided against it because he wanted his people to become stronger as well.
Dilan was not in need of as many Essence Crystals as the others anymore and it wouldn't be a problem for him to collect everything necessary to upgrade his equipment.
Yvonne retrieved a bunch of Undeads from her storage ring and she controlled them to attack the Kobolds and Trolls. A black hue shrouded the Undead and their strength increased drastically.
Meanwhile, Kathrine's body was shrouded in powerful currents of lightning, Williams' controlled tens of razor-sharp blades all around him, Victoria's body metamorphosed while blood Icicles circulated around her, followed by Sven who was the only one who was wielding a sword properly in his hands.
Sven didn't have a high combat power. He was one of the few Tier-2 Ascenders, who focused on supportive occupations with the intention to support his people from the backend while they fought on the frontlines.
He was shouting out a bunch of commands, while Dilan was just watching how their battle fared with folded hands.
There didn't seem to be much of a problem for the five Ascenders to pull a bunch of monsters out of the large batch that focused on Dilan.
It was not exactly difficult for Dilan to escape the clutches of the Monsters because he reactivated his abilities once their effects had worn off.
His body could passively replenish an enormous amount of mana in a short period, especially after he attained the Ring of Infinite Elements Constitution, and the Armour Set effect of the Hyel Destructo Armor.
Thus, he could activate many of his abilities constantly without being bothered about his mana consumption.
He ran around, and killed a bunch of Tier-3 Kobolds and Trolls whenever he felt like accumulating a higher proficiency with his abilities.
Dilan was slowly getting used to his stats exceeding 500-800 Units on a regular basis, which gave him the opportunity to work harder on his martial art skills.
There was a big difference between knowing martial arts as a perfectly ordinary human being, and having the superhuman power to do things that couldn't have been possible before the Primordial Ascension.
Dilan continued to hoard Essence crystals and he then stored them in his storage ring.
He wanted to spread the Essence within them out in an even manner, and not focus on one Armor piece at a time.
However, what he didn't expect to happen was to receive a bunch of system notifications.
[The host's proficiency with the ability 'Thunder Step' has increased drastically. Due to the ability having reached the highest possible threshold, it will evolve!]
[The ability 'Thunder Step' evolved to 'Walk of Thunder'!]
Dilan didn't expect that the first active ability he had bound to himself would reach Tier-1 so quickly. It came as an unexpected surprise that the Thunder Step's ability evolved after reaching its limit but that made sense.
If he had learned the Thunder Step ability through a martial art book rather than binding it to his Essence crystal, he would have reached the limit by now.
However, because Thunder Step had been bound and nourished by the Essence crystal it could evolve and become stronger!
That was something Dilan was overly satisfied with, especially when he found out about the perks of the evolved ability!
[[Walk of Thunder) Tier-2 ★✭✭
-Drains 2 Units of mana to enhance Agility by 40% for 120 Seconds- Each additional Unit of mana used will increase the Agility enhancement by 2.5%
Once activated, currents of lightning shroud the lower body and create an ear-piercing noise!]
"That's pretty good," Dilan mumbled to himself while continuing to slaughter a bunch of monsters.
The others were doing a great job hunting the Kobolds and Trolls which gave Dilan the opportunity to avert his focus on testing out [Walk of Thunder].
He wanted to see how much of a difference the evolved ability could bring forth. The result was quite interesting because the power of the ability had increased by 30%, which included the lethality of the electric currents.
With a seemingly simple kick, Dilan could easily break the neck of Tier-2 Kobolds and even the Tier-3 Trolls had to face him with more vigilance than before.
After all, Thunder Step was not the only ability that advanced to Tier 2!
In fact, all of his abilities advanced to Tier 2 after a while!
