[New sample detected. Analysing sample]
The system notification prompted Victor after he swallowed a chunk of the monsters flesh. He wasted little ti after that and proceeded to raise the tiger as part of his legion.
There was sothing he noticed this ti, after the tiger died, a short while later a cross appeared above the beast’s corpse, floating just above it. Victor needed no explanation, as he knew what it ant, so he approached the tiger, and with the trigger word he rose the beast.
[You have acquired an undying soldier that will forever serve at your side with unquestionable resolve]
[White Mountain Tiger has dropped in level due to effects of being reborn]
[White Mountain Tiger Level 40].
After checking out the beast for so quick seconds, Victor put him away. Seeing as he had found the tiger unexpectedly while heading for the door to the next floor, Victor thought maybe if he did more exploring and went around the whole dungeon, he would be able to find sothing useful.
Unfortunately, after wasting his ti to navigate through the entire floor, he didn’t find anything noteworthy. “A complete waste of my ti. Maybe I should leave these encounters to fate.” Victor said, as he headed back towards the door to the next floor.
He began his descent, just like always when going to another floor, but half way through he encountered water. Because of the narrowness of the passage way to the next floor, it ant for the most part he would have to travel underwater, at least until he got to the next floor.
Although Victor hesitated for a mont, he quickly rembered that he didn’t need normal bodily functions to stay alive. He quickly checked if he was even breathing to begin with, though he had checked this before, he wanted to make sure, just in case.
As Victor found out, he still breathed normally like any living thing would, but when he held his breath, there was no discomfort, and he didn’t run out of breath. ‘The perks of being a zombie.’ Victor thought, as he approached the water slowly. Another thing he wasn’t sure of was how underwater combat would be like. ‘Guess we’ll have to find out.’ All he needed to do was get a touch on his target, and that was it.
Victor wasted no more ti, and dived into the water. Under water, he found breathing not to be a problem, after all he could just hold his breath for as long as he wanted. After a while, Victor ca to a point where he could see a bit of light above, so he headed out. The cave had these little crystals stuck to the walls and ceiling that emit light(I forgot to point this out sooner) Though the light produced is never enough and is just as much as a dim moonlight in most areas, Victor as an undead had no problem seeing at all.
He swam towards the closest land, and after getting out of the water, he continued his journey towards the door to the next floor. As a zombie, he needed not to dry his clothes as he didn’t catch a cold nor get skin disease, it was just perfect.
Quickly, he pulled out the device that had the map, and after studying it for a while, he placed it back into his inventory. There was sothing else he wanted to try, so he brought out the serpent.
“Co forth, giant forest snake.” Victor said, and following his words the ground a couple feet away from him covered with mysterious black smoke as the serpent erged from the smoke.
Looking at its size now, Victor changed his plan. What he wanted to do was let the serpent go towards the door to the next floor after giving it so instructions. This was to test how intelligent the beast was, or at least how much they could follow orders. But, the fact that it could get stuck in so part of the cave that might be narrowed was the reason why he changed his mind.
“You are too big.” Victor said. He also thought f whether he could na them, as calling them by their species na was a bit tiring.
“System, is it possible to na my legion mbers?” Victor asked.
[Yes. Would you like to na them?]
“Yes.” Victor answered.
The sa mysterious black smoke that felt ethereal started forming and covering the area around the snake, and after a while the tiger and the spider ca into view.
[Please, grant a na to your legion mbers]
“Hmm, You.” Victor said, as he shifted his attention to the spider. “I don’t know what gender you are, though.” Victor said, as he rubbed his chin a bit. He looked at the system, but even the system couldn’t tell what gender the spider was. So, Victor just went with instincts. The spider wasn’t intelligent enough to notice anything, so it didn’t matter in the end.
“You shall be called, Arac.” Victor said. At the mont when he gave the monster it’s na, sothing changed within Victor, as he could feel the bond between them strengthen and grow. “What a feeling. It’s like I can tell what this guy is thinking.. or sothing like that, I guess.”
“You shall be called, Konda.” Victor nad the snake.
“And you, I want sothing fierce, sothing that shows power.” Victor said, as he looked at the tiger. “How about, Gurok. Yes, let’s go with that. From now, you are Gurok.” Similar to the other two, Victor also left the bond between him and the tiger strengthen, but unlike the other two, this one was more powerful and deeper.
‘This… Is it because I put more thought into his na? But I don’t know what it ans though. Or is it because he is a beast, and beasts bon better than reptiles and insects?’ Victor thought to himself.
He couldn’t help but feel sorry for the poor creatures. Victor wasn’t the best when it ca to naming things, especially living things, and he didn’t want to give them human nas either, that would just be weird, so these guys could only cherish whatever nas he gave them.
[Note. mbers with a deep connection with you can also be evolved through the system to a certain extent]
The system said, while Victor was still checking his monsters. This news was a good one, as it ant he would be able to make them stronger.
“This is good news. I wonder how much I can enhance them through evolution.” Victor said, with a bit of anticipation.
