“，？”

The remaining Origin Points on the panel were enough to evolve one of the abilities, but Han Sen’s focus wasn’t on that.

Instead, it was…

“N-level ability evolution, the consumption is a thousand times that of the first upgrade. Doesn’t that mean…”

Han Sen silently completed the elementary-level mathematical analogy in his mind, then his eyes narrowed: “Doesn’t SSR ability evolution require… one million Origin Points!?”

Hiss—!

Even with his current state of mind, he couldn’t help but gasp, barely avoiding being instantly crushed by the sudden bad news.

One million!

Epic increase in grind!

“Currently, hand-crafting the highest-level UR red abilities is clearly unrealistic. The only way to obtain them is if existing UR abilities are delivered to me for replication, ugh…”

“It seems that possibility is even smaller… Forget it, let’s see what the effect of ability evolution is first!”

Shaking off distracting thoughts, Han Sen refocused his gaze, choosing between the two max-level abilities.

“System, evolve my innate ability ‘Hardened Carapace’!”

[Consuming Origin Points × 1000, ability evolution complete!]

[‘Hardened Carapace (N)’ LvMax -> ‘Spiked Armor (R)’ Lv 1!]

Buzz—!!

A strange energy fluctuation spread throughout his entire carapace. On the surface of the originally thick, dark carapace, countless fine, hair-like cracks appeared, following the crimson, lava-like patterns on it!

The cracks rapidly expanded, deepened, and new carapace filled the empty spaces, solidifying instantly!

This was both a reshaping and a rebirth!

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Amidst the teeth-grating sounds, more prominent, ferocious bone spikes grew out from various joints, even more striking than before!

The already ferocious dark carapace now looked incredibly aggressive. The bone spikes, varying in length, were like tempered blades, gleaming with a faint light capable of tearing through steel!

[‘Spiked Armor (R)’ Lv 1: And (mutated) spiked carapace, defense greatly enhanced. When struck, it absorbs part of the damage and automatically counterattacks, dealing penetrating damage to enemies.]

“Got it, it evolved from simply being durable to a damage-reflecting armor!”

Feeling the new function of the armor and the even greater sense of security, Han Sen gave a satisfied evaluation: “It seems that as long as I keep evolving, even once weak abilities can keep up with the times again!”

“But the cost is too high; I need to make choices.”

“The innate ability left by my predecessor… not bad!”

…

…

Boom—!

Boom—!

Boom—!

Heavy, mountain-like footsteps, carrying a suffocating sense of oppression, slowly echoed from deep within the passage.

In the underground space, the monsters, who had been panicking ever since the slime octopus died, stiffly turned their heads in unison, looking in the direction of the sound.

Fear, like a tide, swept over them!

The next moment, accompanied by an earth-shattering roar, the hard rock at the top of the passage was shattered like tofu.

Stones splattered, and dust billowed!

A terrifying figure, three meters tall, covered in ferocious black spiked armor, slowly stepped out from the wreckage!

Boom—!!!

A terrifying, almost palpable pressure erupted with that figure as its center!

The incandescent lights installed above for illumination swayed violently, occasionally sparking and emitting overloaded crackling sounds!

The ground trembled slightly, and tiny sand and gravel were pushed away by an invisible air current!

The terrifying aura belonging to a Ghost-level monster swept across the entire scene. The air seemed to freeze instantly, completely solidifying!

Plop! Plop! Plop!

Several Wolf-level monsters couldn’t withstand this pressure. Their eyes rolled back, and they were so scared that they foamed at the mouth and fainted.

The remaining monsters trembled like sieves, and several Tiger-level monsters’ expressions changed drastically.

“Ghost… Ghost-level… How is that possible?!”

A Tiger-level praying mantis monster roared frantically in its heart, but its body completely disobeyed, unable to move at all.

How much time had passed?!

How could this killer’s aura become so incredibly strong in just the time it took to enter and exit?!

It was simply like the terrifying pressure of a Dragon-level executive occasionally appearing at a large gathering, completely from another dimension!!

Their perception was not wrong; the system’s judgment of ‘Ghost-lower’ was Han Sen’s strength on paper or in his normal state.

Once he fully unleashed the four SSR abilities merged from Pochita, even a peak Ghost-level monster might not be able to contend with him!

This is the true value of a stat monster!

Among the crowd of monsters, the rat monster, Sharpfang, who had finished devouring the octopus corpse, was also present.

Its fur had changed from its initial greyish-white mottled appearance to a sleek, lustrous satin-like sheen. Its internal strength had also increased, clearly gaining considerable benefits from the remains of the Tiger-level monster.

At this moment, Sharpfang’s gaze towards Han Sen had changed from fear to almost fanatical worship!

This was power!

Unreasonable strength!

Han Sen’s gaze swept around, like the gaze of death.

Wherever it passed, all monsters buried their heads deeper, trembling in submission.

“From today onwards, this area is under my control.”

His voice was not loud, but it carried an undeniable authority, clearly reaching the ears of every monster.

He paused, his gaze falling on the trembling rat monster.

“Sharpfang.”

“Here! Here! My… My Lord! This humble one is here!”

Sharpfang jolted, instinctively darting out from the corner, respectfully prostrating itself on the ground, its posture extremely humble.

“From now on, you will temporarily serve as my deputy,” Han Sen said calmly. “You will be responsible for managing these small fry, tallying supplies, and relaying my orders, understand?”

He was asking Sharpfang, but his stern gaze swept over the Tiger-level monsters present one by one.

These guys weren’t very smart, but they weren’t stupid either.

Han Sen’s threat was like a naked blade held to their necks. These guys nodded repeatedly, profusely sweating, their sweat soaking the ground beneath them.

They were afraid that a moment’s delay would lead them to the same fate as the slime octopus, blasted into dust by a casual energy cannon from Han Sen!

“Under… understand! This humble one understands!”

Sharpfang was also incredibly excited upon hearing this. Its initial fear was instantly replaced by ecstasy, feeling that its rat life had reached its peak!

The black rat head bobbed like a garlic masher, and it squeaked, vowing: “My Lord, rest assured! Even if this humble one has to spill my guts and be torn to pieces, I will surely handle everything properly and never betray my Lord’s trust!”

Han Sen nodded slightly, quite satisfied with Sharpfang, this clever and sensible rat.

Having this guy run errands and relay messages meant he wouldn’t have to do everything himself, which would indeed save a lot of trouble.

While completing the tasks assigned by the Great Eye, he could also free up a lot of time to improve his strength. This was the life a ruler should have.

Recalling his previous thoughts, he immediately asked in a deep voice: “Does anyone know if there have been any new developments from the Association recently? Also…”

“How much information do you know about the Dragon-level executives?”
