Rebirth: Tyrant's New Reality

Chapter 176 Glacial Permafrost King



[Also, my lord. Please take a look at the new side quest]

'Ah, yes. Gotta check that,' Arkhen said before he opened the quest panel and saw the side quest.

——

[Side-Quest: 2nd-class Powerhouse]

-Task:

—> Refine all ponds to the limit of 1st class and then break through to the 2nd class.

-Reward:

—> Soul Candy, 5000 reality motes, Physique Empowering Pill.

'Oh well, I'll finish this as I get resources. Gereld should have the essence stones I gave for exchange prepared when we return back to the capital.'

After five minutes, Arkhen, Meya, and the three shadow guards arrived at the 2nd golden dot location.

It was at the peak of a mountain. But there was a 3rd-grade Twin-headed vulture with frost and dark feathers guarding the natural resource treasure there.

Arkhen told shadow guards to defend the vulture beast's attacks while he started spamming his skills to increase their mastery.

At the peak of the mountain, the vulture was trying its best to attack, but two shadow guards were blocking all of its attacks while Arkhen continuously released the skills: <Fire Fist Agnister>, <Dust Devil>, and <Plasma Cannon>. He just wanted to be done with this first.

The vulture wasn't taking much damage but it was taking a bit by a bit due to the spam. The beast didn't even try to escape and continuously attacked.

After five minutes, Arkhen heard the notifications.

[The mastery of Fire Fist: Agnister increased to perfect rank].

[200 reality essence gained].

[The mastery of Plasma Cannon increased to perfect rank].

[200 reality essence gained].

[The mastery of Dust Devil increased to perfect rank].

[200 reality essence gained].

"Alright, time to finish it off," Arkhen muttered as he switched his attack pattern. Pointing his right hand at the vulture, Arkhen started shooting Piercing Rain Blades of Fire-type while moving his hand to follow its direction and even predict its flight to hit it.

Despite being a 3rd-grade beast, this Piercing Rain Blades could significantly damage it. After all… 1) The active power itself was very powerful, though not powerful on its own against a beast of 3rd grade. 2) But since using the Slaughter Blades from Dragon Blade, it ignores 50% of the target's defense. 3) Lastly, Arkhen could now give it the fire attribute with his affinity, making it more powerful since the fire attribute + the boost of 50% fire damage due to the fire affinity.

Those three things combined caused Arkhen to possess attack power beyond that of average 2nd class powerhouses in a way.

The biggest boost in damage came from the Sarangan Dragon Blade as it caused the slaughter blades releasing through to ignore 50% of defense.

After killing the vulture and harvesting its beast core, everyone gathered at the tiny plant that sprouted a flower of red and blue petals with an eccentric design.

"So, anyone knows any information regarding this flower?" Arkhen asked as he turned to the shadow guards.

All three of them shook their heads.

Arkhen could see details, but it was not that useful.

——

[Frostfire Flower]

-3rd Grade / Rare

——

That was it. He could only see grade and rarity, nothing else.

"Take it for now. We'll ask Farin when we return to the kingdom. Your Ice affinity pill is prepared by her master anyway," Meya said.

"Alright," Arkhen nodded as he waved his hand and spent reality motes to uproot the flower instead of risking damaging it by plucking it with his hand.

Afterward, everyone returned back to the cave. The two shadow guards still stayed outside while hiding to be on the lookout, while the rest entered the cave.

However, they were slightly surprised after entering as the mysterious flower atop the mysterious crystal had fully sprouted, and Permafrost Royal Tiger was absorbing its power.

A faint link had formed between that entire crystal including the flower and the Tiger.

[My lord. That Tiger's current bloodline is called Frigid Permafrost King bloodline and is of Epic-rank. However, after absorbing this flower's power and the power in that crystal, it will evolve].

'Oh? So its bloodline rank will also increase?'

[Indeed. It will rank up to Legendary rank. Glacial Permafrost King Bloodline]

'What are the ranks of Bloodline?'

[Common, Uncommon, Rare, Epic, Legendary, Mythic, Divine, Ancient, and Unbound]

'Two more above Divine? Interesting…'

"This Tiger… It will reach the peak of 2nd grade, in both EP and Physical strengthening soon," the shadow guard leader spoke. She was surprised.

"What is happening?" Meya asked curiously.

"Its bloodline is evolving," the shadow guard leader replied before she looked at Arkhen with a smile. "You truly managed to get a boon by binding the contract with that Tiger. Its bloodline will probably be Epic rank or maybe even Legendary rank after this from the aura I am sensing."

Arkhen just smiled in response.

In reality, the one who benefited from this binding contract was the Tiger, not him. With Arkhen's various soon-to-come wonders, the Tiger would benefit greatly, and naturally, it would also aid Arkhen greatly in return.

As of this moment, Arkhen could not know that the tale regarding this Tiger was going to be very lively.

After thirty minutes, the entire crystal and the flower on top of it vanished completely. The dark blue and black stripes on this majestic white Tiger became more distinct, and its aura also increased a lot.

Arkhen looked at its status and couldn't help but grin. Since binding the contract, he naturally got more information. But he grinned because this Tiger was more powerful than him for the time being and would aid him greatly. Especially its physical attributes. They had already surpassed early 3rd-grade beasts.

'I also need to name this new buddy. Hmmm... Got it!

'Lucius!'

[Lucius]

-Dire Beast ~ 2nd grade (Peak)

-Bloodline: Glacial Permafrost King / Epic-rank

-Affinity: Ice, Wind

-Stamina: 344

-Agility: 349

-Strength: 346

*Roarrr!!*

Lucius roared majestically as a burst of powerful aura exuded from its body for a few seconds before it became reserved again and looked at the mysterious egg beside it.

Lucius walked towards the egg, such that the egg was now below its stomach, at the center of its four legs.

A second later, Lucius used its powers to form a small ice shard and stabbed its own heart.

*Grunt…Growl~!*

With a low painful growl, Lucius let its heart blood drop onto the egg as the egg readily absorbed it.

Everyone was surprised to see that.

"Why is it so dedicated regarding my command?" Arkhen asked with confusion.

[No idea. But there is certainly a reason for this]

Lucius let roughly one hundred ml of heart blood fall onto the egg before sealing its wound with ice. A weakened expression appeared on its face as it looked at Arkhen and winced by raising its head two times.

It wrapped the egg around its tail and walked towards Arkhen before putting the egg in front of him and lying down behind the egg. After licking the egg twice, Lucius closed its eyes and fell asleep due to losing its blood essence. It would need several days to recover the amount of blood essence it lost and would experience weakness until then.

Arkhen smiled and bent down before caressing Lucius's head. He willed it as mysterious motes appeared around Lucius. After five seconds, the sleeping tiger disappeared and entered the Aerzax castle's bedroom in Mystic Wonderland.

On the other hand, the egg started moving!

"It's hatching!" Meya exclaimed with excitement. "After what that tiger did, I can't help but feel that the beast coming out of this egg is going to be very awesome… and, of course, cute too!"
