Chapter 466: Asmodian Purity

Adrian decided to use his time strengthening himself and his soulbounds. The information that he wants to obtain from the Church of Light seemed to be more troublesome than he anticipated. Anastacia even stated that even she did not expect that tight guard on the information that he wanted.

The holy churches might not openly show their friction, but a battle is happening behind the scenes. Each of the holy churches are gathering information about their competing church. Some of them are hiding holy relics of each other's churches so that one will not become more influential than the other.

The tight guard in the information about Abelport even made Anastacia curious about the reason why a small city is being well guarded by the Church of Light. Abelport is not even the area where the Church of Light is founded or an area where a holy relic is found.

He started to jump from dungeon to dungeon in the level 150s for Dodu. The predatory slime is more powerful than he expected. He saw Dodu swallow a whole goblin in one bite. The only damage Dodu can get is from magical damage which is why he can bulldoze dungeon stages without magical attacks.

Adrian also found the weakness of the slime species and that is damage per second magic damage. The damage per second of magical attacks is doubled due to the slime's homogenous body. Still, Adrian managed to collect one passive skill from a boulder type monster from a dungeon. It seems the small chance of getting a skill is not something to be happy about.

Dodu managed to collect the skill 'Stone Skin'. This skill made Dodu's liquid body turn into a pile of rocks. It does not even hurt Dodu if his rocky body takes physical damage in this form. The predatory slime just becomes a large boulder that rolls and flattens his enemies to death.

Adrian did find a cool interaction when a boss of a dungeon shattered the rocky form of Dodu. Dodu's body became numerous rocky spikes that death damage to the boss. Adrian thought that Dodu died because his body became shattered into pieces. When Dodu cancelled the skill, the slime just became its plasma like consistency once more and reconstructed its body that split up.

Adrian managed to get Dodu to level 150 thanks to his continuous farming. Adrian tried letting Dodu eating the boss of a dungeon once but found it to be very difficult. The dungeon boss would use all its strength to break free from Dodu's stomach. It got ripped in numerous pieces each time the slime did this.

He also found at the chance of getting a skill from a boss monster is much more difficult than he imagined. The chance of acquiring a skill becomes abysmal when it is not in the nature of the slime to even get that skill. Adrian is still finding out what kind of skills can a slime learn anyway since not much info has been left of slimes.

While Adrian is busy leveling up his soulbounds, he also paid attention to the second raid attempt at the boss monster. He suddenly noticed that the vial that the Pope of the Church of Light is somewhat familiar. Adrian might have a better feeling if he could have seen in face to face.

Adrian is taking a break while he is watching the recorded broadcast of the second failed attempt of conquering the dark god. He monitored the behaviors of the monsters and the dark god itself since it would not be long when he would attempt the raid with his friends and the army that Koronn gathered.

Adrian suddenly paused the video when he remembered that he still has the small vial of Asmodian Blood in his inventory. He wanted to consume it when the time is right, but it seems he forgot. He forgot because all his attention shifted to Dodu which even made his other soulbounds a little bit jealous.

Item: Small Vial of Asmodian Blood

Tier: Transcendent

Type: Consumable or Alchemy Binding Agent

Adrian does not believe that this vial would increase his blood purity by 25% like the first bottle that he chugged but an increase is still welcomed. It would increase his chances of negating a negative status effect or status ailments if his Asmodian Blood purity increases.

[You have drunk the Small Vial of Asmodian Blood.]

[Your Asmodian Blood Purity has increased by a small amount. It has increased by 10%.]

[You have passed the threshold of being a Half Asmodian. Passive cooldown reduction has increased by 5%. You also obtain a 5% Mana Cost Reduction for each of your skill or spell cost.]

The system notifications came bearing good news as he got unexpected benefits from the increase of his Asmodian blood purity. Adrian did not notice but his har started to turn a whiter shade. He even leaked some sort of regal aura that his soulbounds naturally picked up.

Since the change is towards Adrian's physical body, his soulbounds did not get any benefits. Adrian also used the Night King skill book for Sirius. It seems that it greatly boosted the demon wolf's strength as it always has his Shadow Domain active. Sirius would get the full effects of the passive skill as long as his domain is active.

Adrian wanted to find two more soulbounds to add to his army, but he could not decide which monster to pick. Adrian wants a soulbound that can use super long-range attacks, but he does not know monsters that fit that description.

Adrian decided that he also needs an aquatic type of monster for his soulbounds. He also has plans for a monster that can self-sustain. He started thinking of numerous possibilities but cannot pinpoint which he should focus first. Adrian also wants to add another soulbound to lessen the burden in fights.

Adrian knew that his defenses and support type of soulbounds are already good enough. What he needs now is extra firepower. While he is looking for different types of monsters in Pandemonium, Levin Cloud suddenly messaged him.

"We need your help in getting the Prophet of Life." Levin Cloud sent.
