Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

Chapter 9: First Evolution



Chapter 9: First Evolution

[Level Up]

The Level Up notification rang when Reign killed the grave digger inside the hole . He did not hurriedly devour the corpse because he still had to take care of the other one .

He was aware that the grave digger's legs were mangled, so making a quick escape was off the table. In fact, he seriously doubted that the poor man could even manage a decent attempt at standing up.

Nevertheless, to steer clear of unnecessary incidents, he decided to wrap up everything first.

He slowly climbed up from the grave, feeling a sense of satisfaction wash over him. Eating brains always had a way of making him feel alive, even though he was technically dead.

As he looked around, he noticed the wounded grave digger slowly crawling along the ground, leaving a trail of blood behind him.

"Don't move too much or you will bleed to death," Reign spoke in a creepy manner as he took his time walking towards his target. He could see the fear in the man's eyes, and it only made him more hungry.

His mental state was being influenced by his twisted system, triggering various reactions and emotions. The sense of hunger he experienced didn't stem from mere physical requirements but rather originated from psychological needs.

Reign noticed it too, but at this point, he didn't care much because, for him, being brutal was just normal as a zombie. It would be weirder for him if he were reborn as an angel and felt the urge to feast on humans.

Moreover, as he progressed, his mental well-being might also improve along the way.

As he caught up to the grave digger and knelt down to look at him, he could hear the man pleading for his life.

"Please, spare me! I-I've got a family to take care of," the grave digger begged desperately.

However, Reign chose to feign ignorance, as communication was no longer his strong suit as a zombie.

With a smirk on his face, he reached out and grabbed hold of the digger's arm.

The man struggled weakly against him but it was no use. Reign tightened his grip until he heard bones snap beneath his fingers.

"AHHHHH!" The grave digger howled in agony as Reign slowly tore off his arms.

Then he began devouring the arm as if savoring a rare steak, relishing each gruesome bite.

"That's enough out of you," Reign growled as he tossed aside what was left of the arm before sinking his teeth into the digger's neck.

The taste of fresh blood filled his mouth as he fed on the dying man, savoring every drop like it was fine wine.

It wasn't everyday that he got to indulge himself like this, and so when it happened, there were a few things that could be compared.

Finally satisfied, Reign pulled away and wiped away any stray droplets with the back of his hand.

Looking around again at everything in front of him—bodies scattered here and there—something deep within him felt uneasy.

Was this really all there was? Killing for pleasure? Feasting on human flesh?

He felt conflicted. Aware of his own madness, he questioned whether he would really spend his existence just consuming humans.

However, as if in response to his thoughts, another notification reached him from the system.

[Level Up]

The sound of the level-up was different this time. Reign could sense that this level-up marked a milestone for him.

"Status," he hurriedly spoke.

Reign felt content after seeing the reward added to the points he had been saving. However, his focus was quickly drawn to the new addition to his status.

'Evolution points ?' he muttered to himself.

[System: Evolution points are used to evolve your race. You will receive (1) Evolution point every 5 levels , by completing a special mission, or absorbing special artifacts.]

Reign was excited to hear this. He had assumed that he would be a zombie for a very long time, but it appeared that might not be the case after all.

"I want to use my evolution points!" Reign shouted.

Reign examined his options and found himself in a dilemma. Each option had its advantages and disadvantages, so he couldn't make an immediate decision.

He needed to figure out what would be his best choice first.

Luckily, he could see his post-transformation look on the screen. It resembled a black form, like a locked character in a video game, but he could clearly make out the shape of the transformation.

The Tanker Zombie was nearly twice as large as the other evolutions, with bulging and intimidating muscles. However, he thought that this type of body would be too difficult to hide.

The Dasher, on the other hand, had larger leg muscles. It was the same height as the regular zombie, but its legs were significantly larger compared to its upper body.

The Hunter also had bigger legs, but he could see its menacingly long claw. Its form was that of the crawling variant.

Reign decided to delve into the details of each zombie type to better understand them:

——————

Tanker Zombie: This undead creature is exceptionally durable, boasting top-tier regeneration and armor.

Race Skill: Hardened Skin (I) - Reduces damage taken by 10%, with an additional 1% reduction with each skill upgrade, capping at 50%.

——————

Dasher Zombie: This undead creature is tailored for explosive speed, one-direction sprints, possessing the fastest acceleration among its counterparts.

Race Skill: Crazy Dash (I) - Boosts speed by 20% when running in a single direction, with a 2% increase per skill upgrade, capping at 100%.——————

Hunter Zombie: Fast and stealthy, these zombies are adept at moving quietly, sprinting with minimal sound, and navigating various terrains with agility, including running, climbing, and jumping.

Race Skill: Night Crawl (I) - Conceals your presence in the darkness of the night, with quieter footstep sounds as the skill level increases.

——————-

"Oh, these evolutions are fantastic!" Reign was very satisfied with these options.

While all the choices were appealing, he eventually decided on the Hunter Zombie. Its survival potential far exceeded the other ranks at this stage.

'I've killed six people in total , so someone would be looking for them already. I need to gain more skills to increase my chance of surviving ,'he muttered to himself .
