Undying Warlord

Dilan’s gaze went around the hall he had entered. He looked even behind him, just to see that there was a huge slope.

Had it not been dark behind him, it should have been possible for him to see the wall that enclosed the underground valley.

‘Looks like the only way to retreat is to return to the hospital’

Concluding that there was no way to move further in the valley, Dilan was just happy that he didn’t sense any dangers from the darkness that shrouded parts of the slope.

Even if he was not actually able to see the wall behind him, it didn’t take him much time to understand that he had emerged in the outermost parts of the valley’s outskirts.

His smile could only brighten at this thought as Dilan mumbled,

“That only means I won’t be attacked from the back…Great!!”

The moment he muttered the last word, a bright glint manifested in his eyes as he looked at the more than 20 War Krendels, and over 100 higher leveled mutated Krendels and horned rats!

If the fight that he awaited right now could be described as a massacre, the earlier fight was just a child’s play in comparison.

And Dilan liked this way too much because he was in his best state, fully prepared to go all-out with all possible means!

After activating the [Thunder Step] ability, he attained an Agility of -20-. This made it possible to blast several meters ahead with a single strike even before the thunderous noise of the ability’s activation resounded through the entire area.

The electricity currents enveloped his feet and the crackling stirred up the dirt and pebbles on the ground as he dashed through the vast hall.

His eyes gleamed brightly, and the grasp around the Captain’s Sword tightened just to cut through the air at a rapid speed the moment Dilan simply flicked his wrist._-.

The longsword turned into a silverish-gray flash that cut through everything in its wake.

Blood, body parts, and organs splattered on the hospital floor, followed by the sky blue eyes of Dilan to gleam brightly.

“All of you…die for me!!”

**

After a while, one could see a bloody massacre in the huge hall Dilan had emerged in.

There was only one living being that was left standing, and breathing lightly with an eerily crazy smile on his face.

“I…am the strongest!!”

Clenching his free hand, Dilan clearly felt the power that coursed through his body.

If he had already been powerful during the fight against the monsters of the second wave, his current state was simply shocking.

Not a single beast was able to cope with his Strength which was 13 times higher than that of the average human before the Primordial Ascension.

Meanwhile, there was not even the need to talk about his Speed after activating the [Thunder Step] ability because it was already too difficult for any monster to keep up with raw Agility stat of 15.4!

The [Thunder Step] ability was just another terrifying boost in his combat prowess.

It could be used in a versatile manner and was far more powerful than the [Violent Strike] active ability of Oliver.

Oliver might have it easier to upgrade his ability but Dilan was not worried about Oliver leaving him behind.

‘Even if Oliver keeps bragging about his upgraded ability, and that it was extremely powerful now, it will be difficult to find a low tiered and powerful ability as the [Thunder Step] ability!’

While thinking about Oliver, and his upgraded abilities, Dilan couldn’t help but feel like trying to look at the upgrade requirements for the [Thunder Step] ability.

Unfortunately, nothing happened when he tried to take a good look at it.

As such, he shrugged his shoulders before looking through the heap of corpses that were scattered on the ground around him.

Dilan was not sure how many monsters he killed so far but everything had been way too easy for him.

Even the War Krendels that had been slightly larger and more powerful than the ordinary War Krendels had been incapable of keeping up with his strength, let alone speed.

The only excitement Dilan felt from fighting the horned rats and Krendels was their huge number which gave him an increased chance to keep killing.

And it was only after he spent two more hours collecting all Essence crystals that he realized that he had indeed killed a huge number of beasts.

He stored away 10 Essence crystals of War Krendels, while the remaining ones had been absorbed by Dilan.

Everything seemed as usual, only for a surprising notification to pop up even before he received the information about the number of Essences he had absorbed in total, including how much his stats had improved.

[<Agility> Stat has reached the improvement limitation of a Tierless existence! Agility cannot be further improved without advancing to Tier-1, or without meeting special conditions!]

This message hit him off-guard because Dilan hadn’t expected his Agility stat to be higher than high Health stat.

He had already figured that there should be a limit to Tierless existences. As such, it literally made no sense that ‘Agility’ was mentioned there, instead of his Health stat!

The only thing Dilan noticed in the notification was the ‘special condition’, which led him to take a proper look at the Log of the Ancient.

Only after Dilan spent more than five minutes staring at the Log of the Ancient, did two more notifications pop up right in front of him.

This startled him because they lit up the surroundings all of a sudden before he started to read through them with great interest.

[523 Essences and 76 Bronze Essences have been absorbed→ +6.4 Strength, +4.1 Health, +2.9 Stamina, +4.6(7.3) Agility, +1.4 Mana]

[Because the limit of the Agility stat has been reached, every additional status point in Agility will be converted into Essence!]

The second notification was something Dilan truly liked as it lead him to avert his focus to the progression bar of Kirak’s Vassal!

<Kirak’s Vassal> [0.000035%]

If his calculations were correct, it should be at [0.000025%] right now, but contrary to his expectations it was much higher.

‘That means once all of my stats are higher, I can devour the Essence of Essence crystals in their entirety instead of a vast part being used to increase my stats?’

If this were to be true it meant that he didn’t have to absorb 400 million Bronze Essence crystals, but that just a fraction of that huge number would already be enough!!

A bright smile emerged on his face with that thought in his mind.

It made him more eager to max out his other stats, which was why Dilan continued to pick up every single Essence crystal he could sense.

There were still a few more that he had yet to absorb, and he proceeded to do that hastily.

At the same time, his focus was on his Health stat that crossed the limits of a Tierless existence by more than four units!

‘It should be owed to my Origin ability…It is probably one of the special conditions the notification mentioned!’
