Chapter 78: 78. Adaptation: Wings of fate
Dexter jumped into the nest and he immediately stabbed into the first egg in sight with his spear. Feeling some resistance, he forced the spear through and he was surprised by the words he saw on the notification.
[You have slayed a level 1 seventh class creature; might eagle.]
[You have received an adaptation!]
[Congratulations on being the first creature on earth to recieve an adaptation.]
'What?! No spirit points! I thought for sure I would be getting over 30 million spirit points.' Dexter thought as he stared at the notifications.
'Let me deal with this first.' He thought as he looked around the nest.
It was made entirely of long iron rods which were from buildings. They were woven together to make a perfect nest.
Dexter looked at the remaining two golden eggs and he wasted no time I'm disposing of the remaining two eggs without using skill.
[Aboriginal, there has been an error. An anomaly has occured.]
[Aboriginals can't absorb the spirit points of a class higher than them unless with a special class or skill.]
[Your rewards have been calculated.]
[You have gained 100,000 Heaven's tower points.]
[You have gained an item for your efforts in the first phase of the tiran impact.]
'What?! Oh, I'm seeing things. Its just 10,000 points.' Dexter nodded.
Dexter turned into a bat as he flew back down towards Lily as he read the new notifications with a smile on his face, revealing his bat fangs.
He landed on the ground and Lily looked at him worriedly.
"Don't worry about me." He said as he patted her head and she hugged him.
Dexter understood how she was feeling at this moment.
'She probably doesn't want to lose anyone else.' He thought.
"You don't have to worry. I'm not going anywhere." He mumbled with a warm smile and Lily hugged him tighter.
He looked at the rewards he got and he tapped on the weird reward called an adaptation.
[Adaptation: Wings of fate]
[Description: With the sturdiness of the Wings of fate, whether you were fated to die, your fate would be changed instantly. The Wings of fate not only offers protection, but also grants the user the gift of flight.]
[Adaptations are lifelong allies. Think very well about adapting as it is irreversible.]
[Do you wish to adapt?]
[Yes]|[No]
Dexter was indeed stunned at the information in front of him.
'I thought rewards were limited to skills and items.' He thought, but it looks like he thought wrong.
This might actually be a good thing as having the ability to fly without being in his bat form would be convinient.
"Let's head back." Dexter said and Lily nodded.
He looked at the skill orb in her hand and then he got curious and asked.
"How many stat points do you have in your mind stat?"
"Hmm..." Lily pouted.
"202."
Dexter's world nearly crumbled as he just heard that this little girl have a higher mind stat than him.
He then sighed.
"You know what? I'll give you the skill. It's better than it rotting with me." He said as he patted her head again.
Dexter looked at the screens in front of him and he decided to adapt to the Wings of fate.
Dexter didn't feel anything but he saw a notification in front of his face.
[You have adapted to the wings of fate. The wings of fate awaits your call.]
'Nice.' Dexter thought as he checked the item that the system rewarded him.
It was a crystal which had the colour of milk with a faint glow within. In Dexter's hands, he felt powerful and he felt intimidated by it.
[Heaven stone (Second class ranked item): This stone enables the user to call upon the judgement of light to destroy their enemies. And with the heaven stone, darkness won't be able to near the wielder.]
[Judgement of light: remaining times - 5/5]
'Damn. Seems like this hunt was very beneficial.' Dexter thought with a smile before looking at Lily with a pained expression.
'If only I had enough stat points in my mind stat, might aura would be the best for me.' He thought with a sigh.
'One thing is still bothering me. Adaptations... should I just... wish for it to come.' Dexter thought and he closed his eyes.
"Wings of fate." He mumbled and Lily looked at him who had a frown on his face.
"Huh? Nothing happened?" Dexter said out loud as he opened his eyes and looked at his back.
"What's that brother?" Lily asked worriedly.
"It's nothing. Let's head back to that camp. We'll leave soon anyway." Dexter said but Lily grabbed his hand.
"I want to hunt some more." She said and he agreed.
The commotion they made with the folden eagle was enough to lure a lot of creatures to the area.
Dexter who was in his bat form hanged on the wall if a building as he observed Lily who dashed at the creatures.
There were zombies among them which was a rare sight for Dexter now. He smirked as he thought about how hard it was to defend himself against zombies before.
Now, they were his prey.
Lily, who ran at a steady pace suddenly began enveloped in a transparent, golden light and she suddenly sped up like a bullet and reached the horde of monsters.
The gauntlet on her arms proved effective as the creatures who wanted to harm her got killed under her fury of attacks.
Dexter was staring at the whole thing, impressed by how far Lily was able to use only basic skills of taekwondo to fight so well.
'This skill is really powerful. If that eagle was to keep living and it gets to a higher class, it would surely be the threat of all humans.'
'Thanks to that idiot, Marco, we won't have a problem like that.' Dexter chuckled.
After they finished hunting, Lily managed to reach level 15 from her previous level. With her strength and talent, she might even surpass Dexter soon and won't have to worry about him protecting her.
...
Upon getting back to the camp Marco was shocked as he saw Dexter was perfectly fine without a scratch except that his clothes were covered in dust and blood and his brows raised as he went towards Dexter.
