The Rise Of A Porter

___

The egg has absorbed the nutrients... it grows hungrier. ​ ​

___

Arnold waited and waited but nothing else popped up on his interface. After waiting for around five minutes, he finally decided it was enough and right when he was about to place the egg back in his inventory, the egg started vibrating vigorously. He hurriedly placed the egg back on the table.

___

The Wyvern grew stronger due to absorbing the blood of a cosmic being.

It's hunger has been satisfied for now.

___

"Why do I feel like something weird is going to pop out of this egg?" Arnold mumbled and looked at the egg. The size of the egg had slightly increased as well, "Eh... I'll think about it later... don't wanna get anxiety issues now."

He finally placed the egg in the inventory once again. He was about to call out his automatons and start making the weapons but then he remembered about the [Ascension] quest.

"Better check it out first before doing anything. I already have a feeling that the tasks would be a pain in the butt to complete... as usual."

The more Arnold looked through the list of quests, the more and more tasks popped up. It was like someone had given him their bucketlist and Arnold had to complete it in their stead. He'd had the system for so long but not once had the system given him such a long list of tasks for him to complete. Obviously, since the quest were so long and difficult, the rewards were better as well.

Actually in all the time he had the system, he couldn't remember even a single scenario where the rewards were so... exciting. Arnold scanned the rewards list too, evolution, a second class, rank upgrade, and even a chance to unlock a mythical affinity!

But weirdly enough, the more he thought about the task... the more doable they seemed. For example, monsters were freely roaming around a large part of America so killing a small amount of 300 monsters wasn't a difficult task at all, moreover he was already planning to do something similar as the blood from these monsters could be used to feed the Wyvern's egg! It was like killing two birds with one stone for him.

As far as making and upgrading weapons was concerned, he was already about to do so, but sadly he had no idea on how he was supposed to build a S ranked weapon or what a 'relic' was, still he was quite confident in his skills and thought he would be able to so.

Upgrading his <Blood Maniac> subclass was by far the easiest among the task he had been given to complete. It took an astounding amount of 15000 EXP needed to level up that particular subclass by one level so in that way he had to obtain around 240,000 EXP to fully upgrade the subclass and complete this part of quest. Under normal circumstances it would take months for him to obtain this much EXP. But this didn't bothered Arnold in the slightest. Since he had to make so many weapons and kill so many monsters, getting a gigantic amount of EXP wouldn't be an issue for him.

All in all the tasks were long and tiring indeed but the quest itself was doable. Arnold was also glad that he decided to view the quest before doing anything else, as if he had started working on making weapons before, then the weapons he'd have made wouldn't count as 'progress' made during the quest.

"The sooner I start, the easier the tasks would be to complete." Arnold mumbled before stretching his muscles for a bit and opened his void. More than a hundred small glowing lights appeared inside the void as Talos led the other automatons out of the void.

"Rise and shine boys, we got a lot of work to do."

AT AN UNKNOWN LOCATION...

"That damned Black Family!" The masked leader exclaimed, "The nation is in such a troubling situation but these annoying bastards, rather than solving the crisis at hand, they are still chasing me."

"Don't worry sir. They'll never know that it was us behind the disaster. Your concerns about it are... unwanted." Alex assured his boss, "The scientists that they caught and interrogated by them, knew nothing about our plans to release the mutagene virus to mutate the monsters and make them deadlier."

Alex was talking about the series of 'nuclear' attacks that President Tramp authorised. Although it was a nuclear attack, but the warheads also carried a virus that they had developed in their labs and of course, the President knew all about it and still went through with it. The leader had planned to use this moment and introduce his 'Inhumans' as an effective way to counter these 'mutated' beings, but alas, his plans were destroyed once the government was overthrown.

"I went through all that to make the Inhuman project a success and still failed. Damn that good for nothing, President Tramp. That fool couldn't even help me out."

In a moment of rage, the leader slammed his right fist on the wall behind him. Completely shattering it in a mere moment.

"SIR! YOUR UPGRADES!" Alex exclaimed.

"They are not that fragile." The leader raised his fists, "How is Gary doing?"

"The transplant was successful. Even though the organs weren't a perfect match, young master has been 'resurrected'."

"At least he'll live... even if I don't."
