UNDYING WARLORD

Chapter 203 Plans are meant to be destroyed



Dilan was not in a hurry to distribute the treasures and ability crystals he had exchanged with the Sacred points his group had accumulated before.

It was way past midnight and some good sleep was a lot more important for everyone.

He was also sleepy but his mind didn’t allow him to fall asleep once again. The attack of the monster that had appeared out of nowhere, just to disappear after successfully killing its targets worried him quite a bit.

From what Dilan had heard its strength was not high enough to kill Yvonne or any of the Ascenders, who had been out hunting with Dilan for eight days.

Its strength was not the problem but its ability to approach Tier-1 Ascenders without being noticed definitely was.

He was bothered about this but he had gotten his hand on more than enough Ability crystals and equipment to solve most flaws of the Ascenders, who could be said to have less experience or lower stats than their comrades.

But before doing anything stupid, Dilan had to tend to his weakened state.

‘What could be better than recovering from my weakened state by absorbing Essence?!’

Knowing the effectiveness of Essence, he started to take out the corpses of the Ligrav and Rasnian, which he had killed and stored in his storage ring.

He had to release their corpses to cut open their heads, just to get his hands on their Essence crystals. It was quite laborious and took Dilan several hours before he had absorbed the Essence crystals of every single Ligrav and Rasnian.

When he was done, he quickly stored their corpses once again stored in his storage ring so as to not frighten the Survivors to death the moment they would wake up.

Some night watchers had seen what Dilan had been doing but they didn’t say anything. The night watchers didn’t feel like gossiping either.

All of them were tired and their morale had hit rock bottom as well. That was why the only somewhat good sign was that Dilan had woken up and that he kept absorbing Essence crystals for several hours.-.

The sun would soon get up, it had stopped snowing and it almost felt like the tension of the entire temporary camp had disappeared into thin air.

Dilan was completely oblivious to the influence his mere presence had on the others. He was focused on something completely different as a single message appeared in front of him.

[998 <Bronze>, 148 <Silver>, and 5 <Golden> Essence crystals have been absorbed→ +4.1 Strength, +2.9 Health, +3.6 Stamina, +4.5 Agility, +13.9 Mana]

After he read that message, two additional notifications appeared in front of him.

[Essence pool has been filled. Host has reached Level 7(Tier-1)! +1.0 Status points can be allocated!]

[Essence pool has been filled. Host has reached Level 8(Tier-1)! +1.0 Status points can be allocated!]

‘Two Level ups? Well, that was to be expected.’

Dilan was not fazed at the sight of the level-ups he had received. Instead, the Essence he absorbed was the most important. It was even more pressing than the stats he had received.

His condition had improved a lot thanks to the massive amount of Essence he had absorbed. It nourished his body, energized his cells, and accelerated his healing process.

After Dilan had absorbed the 1000th Essence crystal, Dilan noticed that activating his Origin ability while absorbing Essence was quite useful. The healing effect of both overlapped, providing his body with everything it needed to recuperate at a rapid pace.

He was still in a weakened state, which lowered his stats drastically but Dilan was finally able to move a bit more freely than before.

It didn’t hurt that much anymore and he was not feeling as if every single movement of his would further worsen his state.

“That feels much better!” He mumbled, but there was one thing that ticked him off a little bit.

‘But why did I receive so many stat points, especially Mana? Well, the Ligrav and Rasnian race seemed to have been focused on their elemental affinities while fighting. So that might be a reason…but shouldn’t the Ligrav and Rasnian be considered…wait…no…hmmm.

There were no signs that any of them had mutated, or evolved in a unique way… Are the Ligrav and Rasnian race similar to the human race, with each of them being considered as a separate entity by the system behind the Primordial Ascension?’

Dilan was confused but he was actually not able to tell the truth. After all, the status points he had received were not high enough to think that each of the 1151 Essence crystals provided him with status points.

And then again, there were other things that confused him as much as the high amount of status points he had received!

‘I received five Golden Essence Crystals. Four from the Eternal Guards and one from the Priestess. Does that mean they have already undergone their 3rd blood enhancement? If not, what exactly does it mean? I still don’t understand how the quality of Essence crystals is determined.’

It was not actually that important to find out the truth about either of the points Dilan was bothered about.

However, he felt that it might be crucial to know the answer in the future.

But due to the simple fact that Dilan lived in the present and not in the future, the present issues had to be solved with the highest priority.

After his condition improved considerably, Dilan kept using [Regeneration]. He tried to replenish his mana as quickly as possible but they didn’t have many Mana replenishment potions left and the surrounding mana was not that dense either.

That was why he averted his focus to the storage ring once again.

This time, Dilan didn’t release numerous corpses from the storage ring but he took out several ability crystals and treasures with a high variety of quality and Tier.

[Blazing Meteor] Tier-0 ★

[Light of Helia] Tier-0 ★★★★

[Strength Amplification(Passive)] Ungraded ★★

[Agility Amplification (Passive)] Ungraded ★★

[Golden Sanctuary] Tier-1 ★

[Grave of the Undead] Tier-0 ★★

[Puppeteer] Ungraded ★★★★★

[Fallen Sprite’s Boots] <Silver Tierless>

[Rock Shield] <Bronze Tier-1>

[Minotaur Daggers] <Bronze Tier-1>

[Blood Slayer] <Bronze Tier-1>

[Seraph’s Holy Robe] <Silver Tier-1>

[Thunder Snake] <Trash Tier-1> Magic Scroll

[Burning Soul] <Bronze Tier-1> Magic Scroll

[Mavis’ Guard] <Trash Tier-1> Magic Scroll

[Mavis’ Guard(+)] <Bronze Tier-1> Magic scroll

Numerous items were laid out in front of Dilan. They were only the tip of the iceberg but it was already more than enough for many to feel envious of his treasures.

Dilan didn’t want to take any of the ability crystals or equipment for himself. That hadn’t been his plan and he wouldn’t act selfishly all of a sudden either.

The others had to become stronger. Whether this strength came from their stats, which was their foundation, abilities, or the support of external items such as Magic Scrolls or equipment was secondary.

That was why Dilan was currently wondering who to give which ability crystal, piece of equipment, Magic Scroll for emergencies, and so on.

It was certainly not easy to determine who would be able to make the most use of certain abilities, items, and Magic Scrolls.

But that was not the biggest problem. Rather, his issue lay in the trust he could award the others!

There were multiple problems Dilan had to speak about with the others.

If he gave someone a rare ability crystal and they chose to leave the group they would make big losses.

Simultaneously, Dilan didn’t want to bind anyone to his group, which was why he found himself in a complicated situation.

Either he trusted others and believed that they would continue to stay loyal to him, even if they were to reunite with their family, or even if the military or someone of the government were to have created a secure base to live peacefully, or something similar to that.

Everything was possible and Dilan knew that it was impossible to be prepared for all scenarios.

However, that was exactly what Dilan wished to be…prepared for everything.

Unfortunately, life was never supposed to run according to plans. Some might work, but certainly not all of them.

This was even less the case after the Primordial Ascension had occurred.

Plans needed backup plans, and the loss of thoroughly nurtured Ascenders, whether it was due to their death or them leaving the group, had to be taken into account, whether Dilan wanted to accept this or not.

He understood this, and also the importance of strengthening his people right now. After all, they had to survive the following days until they found the next place they could call their base, and possibly their home!
