Their romance storyline only begins on the second playthrough

“Hmm.” Lawns gazed intently at Clara with deep eyes, but in the end, he didn’t voice his true thoughts.

After all, it would be pointless to say it now.

The hollow soul floats outside, and only by returning to the original body can everything be integrated and changed.

"Absorb it quickly," Lawns urged. "I don't have much time left."

"Ok."

Upon hearing this, Rod sat down cross-legged and put the crystal-clear gem directly into his mouth.

In an instant, a clear white stream of light passed through Rhodes' stomach and began to spread in all directions—

thump... thump...

My heart began to pound like a drum, and a powerful vortex of air gathered around my body!

At that moment, Lawns reached out and grabbed Clara's collar, then floated into the air and took several steps back before putting Clara down.

"Senior..." Clara's head was still aching, but she still called him Senior Launes, just like Rhodes.

"Let's wait and see, until he breaks through."

Launes responded casually, but then, as if remembering something, added:

"Only after he gets promoted can he help you leave here."

"Ah? Okay." Clara nodded obediently.

"You don't remember anything, do you?" Launes suddenly asked.

"Yes."

"Yes, as expected," Launes said calmly.

He gazed at his increasingly frail figure and sighed softly.

"There will always be a chance to meet..."

He shook his head and then pressed his arm to the ground.

In that instant, the entire space began to glow with a brilliant golden light, and the ground slowly twisted like an hourglass.

As time went on, and he modified the space, Rhodes' aura grew stronger and stronger.

[You have fused with the remains of a god who has ascended four times]

Your upgrade level has increased.

You have gained a large amount of attribute points and acquired a brand new skill.

As lines of writing continued to fall, Rhodes' aura grew increasingly powerful!

Chapter 121 Darling, why did you kidnap another girl?

A long-awaited breakthrough.

Moreover, it was a last-minute promotion when there was a crisis ahead.

As the last line of text fell, the increase in Rhodes's stats came into view.

Your panel has been updated.

Rod Chivenlance

[Upgrade Level: Four times]

【property】:

Physical Fitness: 410→580

[Agility]: 375 → 524

[Physical Constitution]: 399→556

[Spirit]: 420 → 610

[Faith Deity: Outer God (Unique) (Abnormal)]

[Talent: You can fuse the characteristics of all other divine species to create entirely new talent skills.]

[Currently possessing divine seeds: God of Soul Evolution, God of Sky-Soaring Dragons, God of Life's Radiance, God of Elves]

[Current number of God Seeds obtainable: 1]

Please choose a new faith to make your divine seed even more terrifying.

At this moment, Rhodes' attribute values ​​were officially refreshed, reaching the level of 500 points after four upgrades!

This is not simply a matter of each attribute increasing by two hundred points... because for Rhodes, increasing attribute values ​​has never been his special ability.

Attributes are merely the foundation supporting his high-multiplier, overpowered skills.

【Holy Light Dragon God Slash LV.1】:

Negative effects: When you activate this skill, your health will be automatically reduced by 80%, and your maximum health will decrease by 10% over 24 hours.

Positive effect: You can create a powerful [divine] attack that surpasses the limits of physics. This attack deals physical damage equal to 150% of your value and inflicts a mental trauma effect equal to 150% of your value.

Limitation: 24-hour cooldown.

A powerful, purely numerical burst damage skill.

Very strong, without a doubt.

This mere 1.5x attack bonus should not be underestimated.

With all his skills activated, Rhodes's base attribute values ​​and physical strength already reach a terrifying level of over a thousand points.

With a damage multiplier of 1.5x, or even with soul damage stacked with physical damage, his physique can reach a bizarre strength of over 1500 points.

In fact, this is only because the skill is only a level 1 skill. If it continues to be upgraded, its power is unimaginable!

"Not bad, really very good... the first Blood Burst skill."

Rhodes clenched his fists, but did not rush to calm his breathing.

Because his breakthrough is not yet complete.

He planned to take this opportunity to directly fuse with the next divine seed as well.

Yes.

His greatest characteristic is his ability to merge with the bodies of twelve gods, isn't that?

The enemy now facing him is the god who dwells in the deep sea. He dares not say that he will slowly merge with the next god seed later.

Even if it's just about influencing the soul, he must strive to enhance every single attribute value.

There's no need to think about the Demon God Seed at this moment; since the principles haven't been fully understood, it's better to fuse with it as late as possible.

Moreover, Rhodes had already prepared for the next normal fusion with a god—

That is the [God of Skill].

The fourth of the twelve gods, and also the god who is hailed as the most elegant.

The word "skill" here is actually composed of two different things: "skill" and "art".

Skill is technique, while art is art.

The most distinctive feature of the [God of Arts] is that His abilities have a strong effect on weapon specialization.

Those favored by the God of Skill can often create special buffs for the entire team's weapons, and can also bring themselves special enhancements in [Swordsmanship], [Spearmanship], [Spells], etc.

Rhodes knew very well that the Elf Dragon Sword was an excellent specialized weapon.

And under normal circumstances, all he can do is wield the Dragon Sword and slash around randomly, which is just too ridiculous.

Therefore, obtaining the blessing of the God of Skill to enhance swordsmanship was already part of Rhodes' plan.

"Then... let's merge."

A glint flashed in Rhodes' eyes, and a strange and violent aura began to emanate from him.

The fusion of this fifth [Divine Seed] has clearly undergone a different change compared to the previous times!

Just as the divine seeds repelled each other to the limit, when another divine seed bead was added, Rhodes' skin seemed to tear open and bleed.

A frenzied power began to surge, shattering all the meridians, and blood began to flow from the eyes!

It stung terribly!

When the feeling of his body about to explode spread throughout his body, Rhodes couldn't help but feel a little scared.

How is this going?

However, this doubt was only momentary.

Because when this repulsion reaches its limit, it all disappears.

The repulsive force was erased, and the body's collapse was instantly repaired.

And what remained last was that clear trace of writing—

[Craftsmanship]

At this moment, the source in Rhodes' mind began to change.

A dazzling purple crystal appeared in his consciousness and flew directly to the divine essences that Rhodes had originally merged together.

In the blink of an eye, the crystal was completely absorbed and digested, without causing any ripples whatsoever.

You will fuse divine seeds to create entirely new skills.

[The current divine seed supply is saturated. Please upgrade to obtain more space.]

[Attribute Enhancement]

Physical Fitness: 580→710

[Agility]: 524 → 650

[Physical Constitution]: 556→672

[Spirit]: 610 → 733
