The Evolving Stealth System Chapter 24: Power Up

[Host has received 2,000 experience from defeating Encarta Maximus, and is currently receiving a special evolution catalyst…]

[Host's power level is increasing… 1500 - > 1800 - > 2500…. Hosts body is currently undergoing rapid transformation, and it seems he is receiving promotion to a commander class bloodline!]

"What… what exactly is happening, system?" Duncan couldn't think as his body began changing…

As a zombie, whatever this evolution catalyst did… it didn't feel very good…

If he could compare right now, and didn't fall to the floor, perhaps he'd describe it as hellish growing pains…

The kind of pain that made him scream, "Ahhhhhh!" and Phoenix next to him also fell down as his body also began changing…

"Meeeeeh! Meeeh!" Phoenix crawled towards his master as skin started growing on his bones, so soon he'd be able to breathe…

If he didn't make it before he grew lungs, he must make it before he grew lungs!

All around them, the dragon wraiths and ghosts laughed with sinister voices as Duncan succumbed to his transformation…

[Ding! Hosts Power level is increasing further! Hosts power level has stopped at 3000, and he's learned one new necromancer move, summon zombie (level 1)!]

[Summon Zombie allows host to summon two zombies, and command them… However, host must survive transformation in order to find two suitable zombies to charm…]

Duncan's world was spinning, and sure enough he didn't know if he'd survive to summon zombies…

"AHHHHH! THIS SUCKS! THIS SUCKS MORE THAN DEATH!" Duncan's face contorted as he screamed turning bright red and then green… His muscles began to bulge, and he suddenly felt a large sensation spin through his muscles…

Perhaps it was hardening?

His bones and muscles were hardening, and Phoenix had finally began gagging for air…

"Masster…. I'm making normal noises…" Phoenix was no longer that little skeleton, and sure enough this catalyst could've probably affected wormy too…

He thought it be really cool to have a zombie flesh worm, but sure enough… this wouldn't probably work on wormy the system would later tell him…

"System…. How much longer?"

"System… are you there… system!"

Duncan was puzzled as a large dragon's shadow coagulated from the yellow mist, and a man smiled before kicking Duncan against the wall…

"Ha! I finally found someone… which one of you is it?"

Phoenix pointed towards Duncan immediately, and he took a deep breathe as the man started laughing….

"Oh, my bad… you're a necromancer… well, in that case! Congratulations for completing the final challenge…"

"There was once a scum bag zombie that snuck behind my favorite golem, and now he's a general!"

"Imagine what you'll be in the future of the Netherworlds, you flipping and evolving necromancer zombie!" The man seemed serious and focused without noticing the pain he was causing Duncan, and he was vastly more afraid of him than the poisonous yellow smoke…

His body was like an acid river, and he dropped him realizing he was killing his protégé…

"Oh, sorry… sorry! Congratulations on your inheritance! You're now a moonlight acrid zombie still, but your power has soared by mountains!"

"You'll now be able to whip zombies instead of being whipped! Do you have any problems with your new body?"

Duncan shook his head, and did indeed feel different… It was like before he was as weak as a bug, but now he was like a tiny moth in a world of death…

Hence, he bended his knee, and shook his head in deference…

"No, I will do as you requested…" He put on the biggest, ugliest smile a zombie could, and the man seemed glad to have him…

"Yes… good… now, feel free to find two zombies and take a few of the charms from the floor around you…"

"Now… get out of here, and get back to work!"

Poof!

Duncan had never had treasure thrown in his face before, and Phoenix began picking up the charms eagerly as the ghost wraiths left in a puff…

"He should of died…"

"Hmph, so what if he beat a golem! In my day… it was just a big rock…"

"Anyway, at least he's uglier than us three…"

The three dragon ghosts nodded, and didn't vanish to their dismay… Another golem came out to guard the throne room, and Duncan seemed to disappear from where he was…

[Ding! Host has been transported back to the dragon lords territory, and is currently falling towards Wormy's direction…]

Duncan was so tired, and sure enough… he had no choice but to fall into the sands beneath him…

[Ding! Host is 1000 meters away from Wormy, and the sword is currently unguarded according to the little worm…]

At this moment, Duncan should've been happy to hear this, however, why else would that man leave but to go after Enna?

Sure enough… all he had to do now was take the sword and then flee for safety… After all, who wouldn't take an unguarded, godly sword that was sitting right in front of you…
