The Ultimate Evolution - Chapter 336

Chapter 336

One point to note was that Sheyan and Reef were both rare MTs . At present, their total life points had exceeded 1000 points . With this life-link, it was as good as having an additional life!

Of course, this 'Life-link' wasn't that earth shattering actually . For example, it wouldn't help if the enemy was overwhelmingly superior, or had isolated Reef . No matter how much Reef could tank, after entering in the 'Life-link' boulder state, he could at most hold on for several minutes or tens of minutes . The enemies wouldn't need to seek out Sheyan who was linked, they could just surround Reef and dish out frenzied assaults .

No matter how weak their attacks were, it would at least present 1 point of damage . Hence, 'Life-link' wasn't a totally immune state . Once they managed to transfer damage to Sheyan until he sunk into near death state, then the 'Life-link' would collapse; allowing them to kill two birds with one stone .

Yet ultimately, this 'Life-link' party skill had undoubtedly propelled the survivability of the two parties . Moreover, this skill could still be upgraded! Although it would require a painful sump of 3 party skill points . . . . . . . . . .

Following the confirmation of 'Life-link' as their first party skill, Sheyan and Reef were left with another 4 times of skill drawing; of which selecting 2 amongst them . Currently, Reef seemed to be the more excited one out of the two, as he actively incited the drawing . The 4 party skill options were as follows:

A . Asylum lvl 1 (Passive): An additional 100 HP and 100 MP is awarded to all members . Vanishes upon leaving the party .

B . Finance lvl 1 (Passive): Every member will enjoy 33% discount on personal items purchased from the realm, through the nightmare imprint; and enjoy selling their junk for 33% more to the realm .

C . Gloryheal (Active): The glory of the party can rescue members from the hands of death during critical moments . After activating this ability, 50% of health will be restored within 12 seconds . No activation cost required, cool down of 12 hours .

D . Pierce lvl 1 (Passive): All members receive 12% in attack .

After a series of deliberations between Sheyan and Reef, they eventually chose the two skills - 'Asylum' and 'Gloryheal' . After confirming, the hoarse voice ushered .

"Very good . The party is successfully established, now I will take my leave . I wish you will attain an excellent battle score for your future skirmishes . "

Sheyan was currently contemplating on Uncle Dasi's fingers, wanting to inquire of this officer that supposedly claimed to be from the future . Yet the officer abruptly left, which left him with a sour taste in his mouth . At present, an emotionless mechanical tone played again .

"Small Silver Prestige party: 'Ace' established!"

"You have joined the Small Silver Prestige party 'Ace' !"

"Party scale: Small . " (For certain missions that require a large scale party, small scale party members can choose to collectively join with other large scale party; however, you will be unable to enjoy the party skills of the large party . Under normal circumstances, it is hard for low prestige parties to view information from comparatively higher prestige parties, unless through voluntarily means . )

"Party Prestige: Silver . "

"Party level: lvl 1 (0/15) - Requires 15 party experience to upgrade . "

"Every time a party leader, vice-head or any official member accomplishes a main storyline mission / hidden mission, 1 party experience will be awarded . Apart from that, there are other methods like irregular party level private missions, or massacres during party wars etc . "

"Party leader: Contestant no . 1018, Second Lieutenant . This information can be concealed from party members . "

"Details: To promote your party level, party leader must promote to Lieutenant Rank (First lieutenant) . Before promoting to Lieutenant, party experience points would be stacked, but party will be unable to level up . (For example, stacking till 20/15 experience)

"Party vice-head: Contestant no . 770123, Lieutenant Colonel (Reserve-duty) . This information can be concealed from party members . "

"Covert Party skill: 'Life-link' lvl 1 . This information can be concealed from party members . "

"Party skill: 'Asylum' lvl 1 (Passive) . "

"Party skill: 'Gloryheal' lvl 1 (Active) . "

"Official members can enjoy the privileges of Silver Prestige: When engaging in a party war, you can directly induce suppression on the opposing party's skill; causing their effects to drop by 10% - 30% (Depends on the other party prestige) . Probability of causing opposing party's skill to fail completely is 20% - 50% (Depends on the other party prestige) . "

"Unofficial party members can only enjoy the party skill 'Asylum' . "

Seeing the eventual outcome, Sheyan and Reef were both gladly rejoicing . To be able to harvest such results was certainly out of their expectations . The previous Lord of the Rings world had dangers that left them both physically and mentally exhausted . An 'A' difficulty world was indeed horrifying, just two ringleader class mob could've easily crushed them both .

To survive under such circumstances, the pressure on them had indeed been amplified exponentially . Hence, after rejoicing, they immediately felt a tremendous fatigue enveloping them . After saying their farewells, they hurriedly returned to the present world .

*************

At present, Sheyan was still situated in Hong Kong after he returned to the realm . Though Jessica phoned him for a date, he rejected her due to excessive fatigue; hence he first seeked a good hotel room, and took a nice bubble bath .

While falling asleep, Sheyan couldn't help planning for his next course of action even amidst his mind fuzziness . As for him, the matters to be settled in the present world were fairly ample .

Firstly, after working for Saruman previously; he had tested if the specimens of wolf, freshwater fish, snake, dog man mantis could be used as raw materials for his concoction . He could then try experimenting on them slowly, and possibly enrich his own concoction varieties .

Next was pertaining to the awakening of his innate ability that Reef mentioned . Through his duel with Yi Wufu, Sheyan could sense he was on the verge of awakening his innate ability . If he had the chance to temper himself in Thailand, then he could possibly make a breakthrough .

Lastly, it was naturally considering Uncle Dasi's illness . Firstly, he wanted to supervise his treatment, and secondly, he earnestly wanted to craft the ship according to the old man's heart; finding something for him to do to prevent him from depressing thoughts .

From the perspective of personal gains, both concoction experimentations of new gene-mixes and of awakening his innate ability was equally important . Yet for Sheyan who placed utmost concern on kin, he constantly worried about the father like, Uncle Dasi . Eventually, he decided to return to Taiwan . He would rather he himself face harsher risks and dangers, in exchange for a few comfortable days for Uncle Dasi . Moreover, after returning to Taiwan, he would still be able to attempt to research his concoctions .

After affirming his decisions, Sheyan sunk into deep sleep within the bathtub, and begun releasing satisfied snores . He only woke up upon feeling the chill of the cold water, before he climbed out of the bathtub to resume his sleep on the bed; he only urinated once during this period .

He slept for a full 24 hours before being startled awake by the calling of several service staffs . Because there was a recent case of drug scandal nearby the hotel, the staff were all vigilant like a bird . Upon noticing Sheyan hadn't left his room for 24 hours, they deemed it suspicious and feared that it was another suicidal drug scandal . They repeatedly knocked but to no response, and finally forced open the door .

Seeing this terrified bunch of hotel staff, Sheyan found it immensely laughable . He helplessly shrugged his shoulders, the only thing he could do now was settle the bill and leave . Yet after leaving the hotel, he felt his stomach growl before seeing a huge queue at the opposite side of the road . A wave of fragrance penetrated his nose, as he couldn't resist the urge to walk over .

The street stall appeared simple and crude, definitely one that would fail the hygiene safety qualification test . Sheyan waited for his turn, and sat down at a table . Greasy print marks were all over the table . There wasn't much ingredient, only a yellow skinny woman with a dashboard face . "Thump!" She slammed down a bowl . From the water traces on the bowl, it was obvious it was briefly rinsed after the previous customer just finished with it .

Sheyan was able to use a tissue to wipe the bowl dry; instead, the yellow skinny woman simply dragged over a huge metal ladle and unleashed a sticky liquid into the bowl . The liquid was pretty thick, mixed with crimson and snow white . Piping hot steam drifted out along with an indescribably strange aroma .

He couldn't help pulling the bowl closer, before scooping with his spoon . The silky delicious porridge contained a splendid blend of seafood and cream . As he chewed gently, his teeth collided against fine threads of silk . It was chewy and flexible, the chinese vermicelli breaking easily in his mouth .
