Chapter 14: Obtaining the Lineage
Even though I knew I couldn’t defeat those humans, I really didn’t want to let go of such a good opportunity.
Rat was taking his time with eating. I slowly retreated and decided to followed them tomorrow morning.
Right now this place was very dangerous, if I were to be found out, it would be very bad.
Finding a safe thicket, I prepared to go to sleep to preserve and nurture my spirit. We’ll see if I can find an opportunity to get some benefits tomorrow.
Opportunity is always set aside for the wolves who are prepared. I should at least try, if I really can’t, only then will I give up.
My little life is the most important out of everything I have.
At midnight, I was disturbed from my sleep by some rustling noises. Although the sound was small, it still caused me to become alert. In the strange outside, I did not dare sleep too deeply, I was afraid that one moment of carelessness would cost me my life.
I opened my eyes and looked toward where the sound was coming from.
There were two little snow white snakes entangled together, the sound I’d heard had come from the dead leaves they were pus.h.i.+ng against.
In this desolated wilderness, they still have time for love.
This is an opportunity, although these two small snakes don’t look weak, this was a good opportunity for me.
Everyone knows, that the two are currently keenly interested in each other, they must have relaxed their sense of alertness.
If I ambush them, even if they didn’t die, they would still be seriously injured.
If I say I’m doing it, then I’m doing it!
I stealthily crept closer to the loving couple, and looked for an opportunity to ferociously pounce upon them. One of them was bitten by me and with the end result being that only one of them was left.
The remaining white snake suddenly bit my foreleg, the first layer of Wolf G.o.d’s Golden Body was bitten through.
That was something completely unexpected. To think this kind of snake’s venomous fangs were this sharp!
Since it already happened, I could only brace myself to see this through. I returned the bite, after which the white snake immediately tried to escape.
A poisonous snake, often rely on their venom to prevail over their opponents. They would bite their prey, insert their venom, and turn around and leave. After that they would follow from a distance and wait for their prey’s death, before finally enjoying their meal.
However, as of this moment, it has made an error that would cost it its life.
It’s body was tangled up with another snake, and it only noticed this point when it tried to burrow into the dead leaves.
I exhaled, and unwaveringly bit down on its body. Allowing it to recklessly move its body, coiling around my head. But I just won’t let go of it. It’s not a python, what should I be afraid of?
Not too long after, it also stopped moving.
I released my mouth then heard the System’s Voice.
“Killed a Acquired Third Level Ice Snake. Reward: Snow Wolf Lineage. Atrocity Value: 30 Points.”
“Killed a Acquired Third Level ice Snake, Atrocity Value: 30 Points.”
Hearing such a beautiful voice, I was joyful in both body and mind.
But very quickly, I couldn’t be joyful anymore.
My forelegs have lost all feeling, and my whole body is cold, almost about to becoming stiff.
How can it happen this fast?
“Are you poisoned?” Yao Yao suddenly appeared.
“Hurry hurry! I can use the Atrocity Values to exchange for items right? Give me the detoxifying pellet!”
Very quickly, a pellet appeared, smelling the scent from it, I knew that this pellet was the same one I had used back then. I didn’t even need to think before hurriedly swallowing it.
When the pellet slid down my belly, I could feel a warm current going through my body. Although I wasn’t cold anymore, my forelegs still felt stiff.
Thinking about it, that was about right. It’s not like it’s a Shaolin Monastery and Martial Arts School pellet or other kinds of wonder cure for all problems. It’s impossible to return me back to full health.
“Your luck is pretty good! 60 Atrocity Value, was all used up just now!”
As long as I can save my small life, I don’t care about the expenses. If the Atrocity Values is all used up, I’ll just go earn more. Once I die, I won’t have anything.
“Why is this poisonous snake for fierce?” I opened my mouth to complain.
I really took a turn to walk in front of the gates of h.e.l.l just then.
“You’re even more ferocious than a poisonous snake!” Yao Yao said from the side. “If it weren’t for you having a layer of the Wolf G.o.d’s Golden Body, you won’t be able to even open the System, you know?”
“How could that be? Last time my Foster Mother also got poisoned but she could still run pretty far, right?”
“Did you even think about what kind of strength you have right now?” Yao Yao pointed at my nose and criticized. “Your Foster Mother has a Acquired Fifth Level strength, while you’ve only just stepped into the very first level of the Acquired Levels. If you hadn’t had the Wolf G.o.d’s Golden Body, the moment the Ice Snake had bitten you, you would not have been able to move anymore!”
“Really?” I wasn’t really convinced.
“You can go find another poisonous snake and see if I’m telling the truth or not.” Yao Yao said with a cold face.
“Who cares about that, it’s all good as long as I’m not dead. Hurry up and give me the Snow Wolf Lineage.”
Although the course of events was still dangerous and difficult, but the conclusion still made me very happy. Those difficult and dangerous events weren’t important anymore, there’s no need to constantly think about those bitter and astringent events
It’s still better to sample a taste of happiness!
“Make your preparations!” Yao Yao solemnly stated. “This time’s pain is no less than last time’s.”
I nodded my head, showing her that I was ready.
Compared to the small pain following after, I’m more afraid of not having enough power to trample people under my feet.
This time the pain wasn’t on my head, but on my four limbs. Changing my lineage, must be a big operation.
Good thing I have experience from last time, so I can still endure this.
After a long time, I once again got up from the ground, by now my body was already drenched.
Closing my eyes, I could now unexpectedly see the Attributeless Crystal Stone in my head. From the transparent no attribute, it was slowly turning blue and cyan, each color taking their own half, like a beautiful gem.
In the air, the blue and cyan spirit power slowly drew close to my body and gradually blended in with it.
Snow Wolves can use two types of attributes, this was something I already knew.
My body became more st.u.r.dy and powerful, my vision also had a huge improvement. Before at night, the things I could see were more fuzzy, like a two hundred degree shortsighted person. But now, it was as if it was the day time, everything I saw was clear and distinct, and I could even see even farther than I could before.
At the same time, I can also sense the spirit power flowing in my surrounds and the spirit power fluctuating inside of me.
The foul smell on my body ought to be the impurities from within my body. The Earth Wolf Lineage was a just an ordinary lineage. And I was afraid that the Snow Wolf Lineage was only a fierce beast grade. But I can still continue to cultivating and eventually I will become a strong demon beast.
I really want to take a bath. This kind of stink, to my fourth grade sense of smell, was simply a type of torment!
Even a little bit of stink will be magnified by a lot!
“How do you feel?”
“Really great!”
“Really?”
“Really. Do you want to test it?” I sized up Yao Yao on the screen and wretchedly ask.
“No need, you can find Miki and test it out.” Yao Yao suggested. “I can help you settle her, like **** and so on. The system can also offer you support!”
“You already know, I have no interest in the wolf race beauties.”
“No interest?” Yao Yao gently laughed. “Then I can’t help you now!”
“What do you mean?” I always feel as if there is a conspiracy behind Yao Yao’s smiles.
“Since you have become a genuine demon beast, I can now release you some non rule violating compulsory nature missions!”
“Compulsory nature missions?” The happiness from obtaining the lineage was completely gone with one sweep. My complexion paled……at least you would be able to see it if you shaved off the fur on my face,
“Yes, as long as it doesn’t jeopardize the host, and doesn’t jeopardize the missions of the wolf race, I can release them all to you.” Another sofa appeared on the screen, Big Sis Yao Yao was dressed in a grey short skirt of a company employee’s uniform with her leg crossed over and her right hand stretched out. “The reward is very considerable. All sorts of skills, all sorts of abilities and all sorts of treasures…… things of which you couldn’t even dream of!”
“How about it? Wanna test it?”
Her tone was filled with the enticement of a human woman!
I’d said too much, so I shook my head. My tooth almost biting through my tongue as I did my best to fight against the enticement and continuously shook my head and said, “No need, no need!”
“You really don’t want it?” Yao Yao watched me attentively as she asked again. “This compulsory nature mission, the completion way is very easy and delightful, not much trouble. The mission reward can allow you to go on a rampage throughout the whole continent, even if you became the enemy of humanity. The only shortcoming is that you have to use a bit more time. Do you want it?”
The completion way easy and delightful?
Not too much trouble?
Can go on a rampage throughout the whole continent?
How is using a bit more time a weak point?
It’s simply undisguised enticement!
When the moment comes, the upcoming story of the few hundred Beauties and the Beast in reality wasn’t just a dream anymore!
“How about it? Do you want it?”
“Want…… er……. Let me take a look first!”
Under this type of enticement, I can still remain sober.
I even feel a bit of pride in myself now.
“Fine, seeing as you can still remain clever under these circ.u.mstances, I’ll allow you to take a look!”
