Chapter 280: CC Takes Action Against Shika
The goldfish's ability was rather innovative. It wasn't related to combat, but digestion. Its burst elent ability was internally actuated.
In essence, it was a bit similar to the three-horned man's ability in that it was particle-related. But, the size of the burst elent particles here reached the cellular level and even below.
And, they were produced within its stomach, allowing it to break down anything it consud, literally, and break them into molecules. The burst elent would then act as a catalyst to make the molecules react in desired ways to give rise to suitable products.
At first glance, this wouldn't seem to be a spectacular ability. But, here was the catch. The burst elent was capable of breaking down any construct, whether living or non-living. Secondly, catalysing to create the desired product, that was the catch.
So, if soone well-versed in chemistry were to obtain this…they would be able to catalyse any variety of chemicals in their bodies. It would turn frightening instantly. This was practically an ability that made the following statent a reality…
Knowledge is Power!
[Host, summon the goldfish and place your hand over its head]
The System told Shika as she summoned it. Interestingly, the goldfish's item was still the sa—a goldfish. And when it was summoned as is, it was pretty much the sa.
The only difference was the fact that when summoned as an item, its body size could be varied while it created a small suction force to pull in things to devour. It was practically a whale at this point.
Shika then placed her hand on its forehead, noticing her palms shining with a resplendent hue as she asked in surprise, 'System, what is happening? Why is my palm shining with so many different lights?'
[I'm channelling nurous abilities into it to modify its powers]
'So, it is buying one-off Skills related to modification and directly implanting them into the goldfish.' Compass Carburettor nodded, understanding just what it was up to.
If it just used a Skill, then the effect would only last until the Skill was supplied with enough ntal Energy. But, to make it permanent, the process involved using the Skill like a System Fragnt.
So, the Night Ranger System bought a Skill from the Astral Network and directly dumped it into the goldfish's body, making the Skill fuse into it. It didn't retain that Skill after that.
In this way, it added in a bunch of Skills, judging by the flickering lights, 'Holy heck! Just how much modification is it doing to it?'
Compass Carburettor was shocked, seeing the modification process for the first ti. Until now, he didn't understand just how many Skills were needed to be used to make such a modification. It was not to ntion the amounts of funds—ntal Energy—required to do so.
The Money-Making System had made it look so simple that he was caught off guard for a mont. A minute later, the Night Ranger System spoke calmly, as if it was just doing her a favour like usual.
[Done]
Compass Carburettor felt that it was barely able to rein in its excitent, understanding it pretty well. He then smiled, watching the excuse it ca up with.
[Host, now, you're able to recover your Vital Energy when the goldfish eats anything edible]
'So, this ans it is also able to generate ntal Energy.' Compass Carburettor picked up the truth of the situation, 'So, the mont it discovered such a possibility, it took action imdiately. As expected of a System. It knows where to seek treasures that break the ga balance of the world.'
"I can recover my vital energy through it?" Shika was excited, "That's great! That'll make things a lot easier for ."
She then smiled, feeling tired, retracting the goldfish, yawning in response, "I'm feeling sleepy."
She looked around, noticing that there was no activity on the terrace. Throughout the night, of the horned n arrived here. And judging by how calm it was below, she frowned, 'Did they just give up on their search?'
Even though she was curious, she was trendously tired, having not slept much for days, having been pressured by Dwun all along.
So, after so thought, she entered the building, infiltrated one of the rooms on the topmost floor, killing the inhabitants within as she stored their corpses, for the ti being, unwilling to leave any traces of blood that others might detect.
She then happily slumped on their bed, falling asleep.
In the anti, the goldfish was afraid within her space. For, a cobra had turned gigantic before swallowing it alive.
Plunder!
Moreover, to make this a success, Compass Carburettor had already killed the mongoose. For, the value of the goldfish's ability surpassed it.
The mongoose's ability was on the level of the vulture-like bird's, and of course, incomparable to Dita's.
So, this was the least valuable among all three and was killed, creating enough space to bring in the goldfish. It was a contest of will and power. And, when Compass Carburettor poured in his Darlac, it was an easy victory, thanks to the surplus power he possessed.
And of course, the goldfish wasn't able to compete against him in terms of Will, its resistance falling short as it was plundered by him.
"Dita, this might injure you a little bit." He conveyed to the cobra through telepathy.
"Uncle, it's fine! I'll heal after so rest in your space." Dita replied in excitent, "Stop wasting ti. Just do it!"
"Haha, alright!" He laughed, closing his eyes as he concentrated on replicating the sa actions Shika perford, having felt everything many tis.
Fusion!
He fused the abilities of both Dita and the goldfish, preparing his attack when he condensed Anthozoa, aiming it at a random direction before shooting out all six bullets.
The bullets crashed into the space as the laws of the Earth spilled out and coursed throughout Shika's body. She was unaffected, only feeling mild abominable pain. But, it was an entirely different scenario for the Night Ranger System.
Just when it was about to rest contently, the laws of the Earth constricted, damaging its body. It scread in alarm, "What the fuck!"
After all, raising his hands, Compass Carburettor activated the fused ability.
Plunder!
He began to swallow its ntal Energy.
