It was unreal, but Ian somehow managed to gain a lot of biomass just from eating half of the corpse of the Herald. Why only eat half? The other half had been corrupted with dark divine ki according to the system, which could affect his personality if he devoured it.
Ian definitely didn’t want to do anything that could affect his personality. If his personality changes to an extreme, is he still the same person? Perhaps, but Ian will definitely not choose short-term gains over the long term.
As he thought of this, Ian called his status. A blue panel window appeared on his retina that only he could see.
Increased Bone Density. Solar Laser Eyes. Mind’s Eye. Trupeyo Parabus Enhancement 2x. Super Asura Physique. Nine Paths’ Bloodline. Sensory Web V2. Tri-Vision Eye.
Platinum Tiered Claws + Vibranium Metals. Kagune. Exoskeletal Armor (Steel+Tungsten).
Biomass Remaining:321,000
Yup, he had gained that much biomass from just half of the Herald’s corpse. It could be seen how high the energy content and the quality of the flesh Herald possessed. However, most of the biomass came from pure divine ki that hasn’t been converted to dark divine ki yet. Now, Ian had a new source of biomass. A pure divine ki, free from any kind of attributes.
But the question is... Where the fuck would he find something like divine ki? It’s not as if there are a lot of gods out there, right? Or there is?
Ian couldn’t help but curse himself inwardly for raising such a flag. Well, it doesn’t matter. With this mortal body that could rival gods, he doesn’t have anything to fear!
Of course, he won’t get conceited either. After all, complacency is the number of downfall of geniuses. Well, he’s more like a cheater, though, than a genius, so he might be an exception?
’Damn... Sometimes I wonder if there’s something wrong with my brain... It definitely needs a fix.’ Ian chuckled.
Just like that, Ian flew at a casual speed that surpasses Mach 50 or 38,061 mph. It was just a casual speed. He doesn’t even give his effort at this pace. If he did so, his speed would multiply a hundred times.
As for the speed of light? Forget it. He’s not in that realm yet. Maybe he could reach that speed if he further upgrades his Super Asura Physique two to three times and transforms to his form Ultimate Nine Paths 1 or even form 2.
Ian saw various continents from a vantage point. There was the USA, Africa, Asia, etc...
Yeah, the Human World in this Universe was still the planet Earth. Unfortunately, the history was drastically different. Most of the historical figures from Earth, like Napoleon, Leonardo Da Vinci, or even the US president, do not exist. Overall, the same planet and technological progress, but not the same people.
Just like that, Ian went in the direction of South Korea, where Damon was. On Earth, there’s only one SSS-rank hunter, and that was Damon. Most dungeons were located throughout Asian, while the second with the most dungeons is the US.
The more dungeons, the more resources, and the more it gives birth to stronger hunters. That’s why most of the S-rank and above could be found in Asia. But does the country have the most dungeons in Asia? It’s the Philippines.
Although they don’t have an SSS rank. Most of the SS-rank hunter came from their land due to the abundance of Dungeons.
"How is it did you succeed?"
Damon appeared in front of Ian just as Ian hit the ground. Ian glanced at Damon, who had a serious expression.
"Yeah, I wouldn’t be back in one piece if I didn’t, right?"
Ian answered casually as if he didn’t do something particularly important.
Hearing this, Damon ignored the casual tone in Ian’s voice and his tensed shoulder slumped. He could finally relax! He was literally all over the edge the whole time.
The strength and malevolent aura of the monster isn’t something that he could fight even if he uses his full strength. As he thought of this, Damon felt helpless and powerless. Feelings that he hasn’t felt for a long time.
First, someone appeared who was a little bit stronger than he was and beat him. Second, that same guy reappeared with greater strength than before and widened the gap from him like a bottomless pit. Now, there’s a monster that emerged out of nowhere that could overwhelm him easily?
Why are there powerhouses stronger than him that have begun to suddenly pop up out of nowhere?
"Fortunately, you are here. Without you taking action, the Earth might have been gone by now. I could feel your power levels even though you’ve left the Milky Way galaxy. That kind of energy signature, even the residual energy in the fight between the two of you, could have shattered the Earth completely." With a solemn expression, Damon bowed to Ian sincerely.
With the full mobilization of their power level, Damon managed to feel how accurately powerful Ian now based on the spike of their aura. Normally, he couldn’t sense Ian’s power level without Ian’s full display.
What did he feel? A terrifying level of energy greater than the Herald and exceeds him, who could destroy the Earth, by a great margin.
Seeing this, Ian waved his hand and shrugged. His clear purple eyes fixed on Damon. "There’s no need to be like that. Lift your head. I’ve just done what I can, and I have a grudge to settle against that bastard’s boss."
"Also, if the Earth is destroyed. It would be such a huge loss. The dungeons here are quite valuable, even for me. It would be uncertain if those dungeons would remain. I’ve escaped from the Curtained Imperium against that Dark God to here. Honestly, living here was quite comfortable compared to the bleak atmosphere in the Curtained World."
Ian said in one breath.
Ian wasn’t lying. He has a good feeling on Earth. After all, it was once his home planet, as he was once a human. Although that was in the past, now. Since it only took minimal effort from him, he was ready to help. Not to mention, the enemy this time came for him. It could be said that it was a personal business that he had taken care of, and the survival of Earth was just icing on the cake.
Damon scratched his head, the corner of his lips curled upward. "That might be the case. But I’m still thankful. As a thank you, I’ll treat you to a nearby restaurant. How about that?"
