Chapter 314 Fate Reincarnation

Looking at the surroundings where the air had returned to normal, David withdrew his gaze from the distance.? After defeating the Devouring Demon Centipedes, he distinctly sensed an eerie presence rising from the endless forest. historical

David speculated that it might be the Zerg King sensing the death of her guardian and emitting this ominous aura.? Or perhaps she intended to use this malevolence as a warning to David.

However, David wasn't concerned about the Zerg King's warning.? He had come here today, and he had defeated the Devouring Demon Centipedes for one ultimate purpose - the Zerg King.

So, disregarding the malevolence in the forest, David looked at Clive.? He smiled faintly and shook his head, saying, "Is this what you called terrifying?"

"Too weak," David's words nearly left Clive choking.? He helplessly glanced at David, his face filled with embarrassment.

Clive was well aware of the Devouring Demon Centipedes' strength, but who could have known that David was this formidable?? He had managed to break through from the twelfth level of esper to reach the "Escaping dust" level within the blink of an eye.

If this were to be told, who would believe it?? Clive regretted uttering those words earlier.

"You, kid...? are truly impressive," Clive couldn't help but praise.? At the same time, he believed that it was a wise decision to have Emlyn sent to him.

In response to Clive's praise, David smiled faintly.? He knew that his sudden power surge was due to his accumulated experiences over time.? Along with his encounters in the wasteland world, where he hunted down five super-level mutants and countless zombie-like creatures, he had become intimately familiar with the rules of the wasteland world.? This deepened his understanding of esper abilities.

However, what David hadn't expected was to level up at this particular moment.? Despite the Devouring Demon Centipedes shedding its skin and being in a weakened state, if he had engaged it in combat without the element of surprise, the outcome would have been uncertain.? Furthermore, the Zerg King was stationed nearby, and she was continually monitoring the situation.? So, this battle was indeed a reckless venture for David.

Fortunately, he had entered the "Escaping dust" level, surpassing the conventional levels of esper abilities, which allowed him to effortlessly overpower the formidable Devouring Demon Centipedes.

Otherwise, David believed that the Zerg King would have dispatched more Zerg to attack him, making it a dire situation.? It was his sudden and overwhelming strength that had deterred the Zerg King.

This made David think that the Zerg King was also a clever entity, understanding the need to avoid a direct confrontation.? At this moment, the system's voice echoed in his ears.

[Congratulations, Host, for killing the Devouring Demon Centipedes.? You've gained one hundred black pronuclei!? ]

[Congratulations, Host, for triggering a hundredfold critical hit.? You've gained ten thousand black pronuclei!? ]

David nodded in satisfaction.? He hadn't expected to receive so many defense-oriented pronuclei from this creature.? With these, he could confidently fortify his base in the later stages.? However, the system's voice continued, echoing in David's ears.

[Ding!? Congratulations to the host for gaining a new ability, Fate Reincarnation"!? ]

"Hmm?? 'Fate Reincarnation'?? What's that?"? Hearing the name of this new ability, David was instantly puzzled.? He noticed that the system hadn't mentioned the elemental affinity of this ability, and it came as a sudden surprise to David.

[Fate Reincarnation: Surpasses all elemental abilities, allowing you to sense an individual's past, enter their past timelines, and alter their fate.]

[Initial usage time is ten minutes, reduced to five minutes in later stages.]

[When the host uses this ability, the target's brain enters a blank and static state.]

Upon hearing the system's explanation of "Fate Reincarnation," David was initially taken aback.? Then, a glimmer of enlightenment flickered in his eyes.? So, with this ability, he could change events that had already happened?

Thinking about it, David became even more excited.? This ability was more powerful in terms of impact than any other ability.? By entering an esper's past timeline and manipulating their actions, he could effectively change their fate, altering their entire perception.

Effectively, David could enter an esper's timeline, influence them in a way that would make him a benefactor, and thus, gain an More followers in the real world.

Now David finally understood why " Fate Reincarnation" was considered superior to all other abilities.? Its potential to alter destiny was unparalleled.? The most challenging aspect to change in any sentient being is their thought and cognition.? Yet, David could now manipulate not only someone's thoughts but also their destiny.

With " Fate Reincarnation," destiny was no longer a fixed concept;? it was the world's law.? David nodded in satisfaction, and he saw a black temporal vortex appear in front of him, only to vanish immediately after appearing.

David knew that this black vortex was likely the entrance to using " Fate Reincarnation"? As long as he willed it, he could summon it.? Following that, David placed his palm over the shattered remains of the Devouring Demon Centipedes and said, "Extract!"

[Congratulations, Host, for extracting one Blood Bone!? ]

[Congratulations, Host, for extracting one Vial of Zerg Essence!? ]

[Congratulations, Host, for extracting thirty pieces of Wasteland Staff Fragments!? ]

A Blood Bone, a transparent sealed vial, and thirty shimmering fragments appeared in an instant, then entered David's system storage.

This left David feeling somewhat contemplative.? It appeared that higher-level beings gained more when extracting materials.? Glancing at the ninety fragments of the Wasteland Staff in his storage, David started to anticipate.

He had no idea about the true origins of the Wasteland Staff, but its mysterious nature indicated its significant influence on the entire wasteland world.

However, David also understood that to uncover the secrets of the Wasteland Staff, he would need to gather a hundred fragments to synthesize it completely.? He was now only ten fragments short of having the whole staff, which seemed readily attainable.

So, David wasn't in a hurry.? He shifted his focus to the sealed transparent glass vial and wondered, "Zerg Essence?"

[Upon inhaling this gas, the host can conceal their human scent and emit the scent of a Zerg.]

David nodded.? The primary enemy he would be facing was the Zerg.? Sometimes, infiltrating their territory would require effective camouflage.? Clearly, this vial of Zerg Essence was the perfect disguise.? Today's gains were quite fruitful for David.? Seeing the Devouring Demon Centipedes, which had no further value, he turned and departed.

Meanwhile, Viola had also awakened from her unconscious state.
