122: The Supreme Bloodline
"Phew... Now it can truly begin."
Li Aoz clenched his fist casually. The [bloodline] of the Sequence Aura modifies the body gradually and imperceptibly, without immediately showing its effects.
It's quite a rip-off. Although [Bloodline] can amplify strength, it doesn't improve [Constitution]. It's just a boost from the activation of Aoneng.
When it comes to making a true judgment, we still have to look at his [charm].
Li Aoz patted his frail body (100 [Constitution]) and sighed.
—This thing can't turn itself into a big muscle man without even modifying its body shape.
Although this Aoneng is very mediocre and its growth is also average, the fact that it doesn't consume energy is still quite commendable.
It is discreet and secure; even if used, it will not reveal one's identity as a Daoist of the [Dominator] lineage.
"After equipping the jewelry, my base Charm value is 157. With the 26 points gained from leveling up, it reaches 183. The 30% bonus from Perpetual · Love Hunter gives me an actual Charm value of 237.9."
The activation effect of [Bloodline] includes gaining [Strength] attribute equivalent to [Charm], plus Li Aoz's base of 100 [Strength] - which can unleash a maximum of approximately 337.9 [Strength].
"If you calculate it that way, it's quite considerable."
Thanks to his high charisma, if any foolish Martial Artist dares to challenge him, Li Aoz can instantly kill them with a single punch.
At the Delta-rank, I'm equivalent to One-Punch Man.
Epsilon? Bangbang will give you two punches, then go and question your existence by looking at your own body.
Even someone who has just been promoted to the Zeta-rank would stagger if they took a punch from him.
The greatest use of the [Strength] attribute is to increase melee weapon damage and attack speed, as well as to gain stronger and more stamina. As a [Dominator] type, Li Aoz has no awakened stamina and can only exert ordinary muscle strength.
"Since we've decided to change our playstyle, let's start using the [Conqueror] build from now on."
Li Aoz glanced at his gene fragments, then synthesized a [Bloodline] that had completely depleted his reserves. There was no way to modify his body now.
Let's leave it at that for now.
Afterwards, Li Aoz spent two weeks at school concealing his breakthrough to the Delta-rank.
As Delta-rank powerhouse, unsurprisingly... he lost another three hundred points.
First, he failed a general education course, and Li Aoz applied for a make-up exam for the final exam and then stopped caring about it.
With nearly a month of enrollment approaching, Li Aoz has accumulated 421 Credits, making him arguably the first person in history to do so.
He didn't immediately contact the connections Mordot had introduced him to, in case they were involved in some kind of collusion, which would only expose his weaknesses.
Soon, Li Aoz proved his idea to be true.
The Student Union's Enforcement Team began to screen students. Outstanding students like Dia Lan were considered suspicious and were monitored and questioned several times.
Li Aoz's consistently plummeting grades further diminished the Enforcement Department's attention to him.
From beginning to end, no one came to doubt him.
The Student Union did not publicly disclose matters related to Social Citizen actually made it easier for Li Aoz to conduct his hunting and searching on campus.
His achievements were quite remarkable.
Within a month, he killed two citizens of the [Machine World Society], and before they could begin to infiltrate and grow, they were nipped in the bud by Li Aoz.
Faced with the Delta-rank Li Aoz, these newly infiltrated machine world citizens were Power of Resistance and were easily crushed by Li Aoz.
With three more Saint Core in hand, and Constan also sending over 5.6 million Ammonium Gold, Li Aoz immediately close to becoming a multi-millionaire.
Having 7 million units of Ammonium Gold in hand would place one in the elite class in any Narrative-level Civilization.
Li Aoz in a great mood and ate well. Every day when she went to the cafeteria, she had to watch ' Golden Princess ' Dia Lan being watched by more than a dozen people while she ate and drank. She was even followed when she went to the toilet. However, she could not lose her temper when facing law enforcement officers and could only endure it.
Ah, this is what a carefree life is like.
If Li Aoz had actually contacted that woman back then, he might be the one being monitored right now.
It seems that this "intelligence" bonus was well worth it.
Two weeks later, even Sylvia, who had been the most skeptical of herself, gave up her 'unrealistic' conjecture and came to apologize to Li Aoz.
"I'm very sorry, junior Lioz, I shouldn't have doubted you. Please forgive my offensive words and actions back then..."
"It's nothing."
Li Aoz tried to appease him, but the other party insisted on compensating him and even spent dozens of Credits to treat Li Aoz to a meal.
Li Aoz couldn't help but wonder: [What would her expression be if she knew that this body was actually a clone?]
Life went on as usual.
Li Aoz's life is basically equivalent to delivering packages under Big Ben—the package is placed on top, and the package is sent below.
Hobbes and Lucite both worked hard to compete, with the former often staying up all night alone in the library, but he always had a lot of energy.
However, the black color on the ring he was wearing seemed to be fading slowly, for reasons unknown.
Lucite successfully joined the Alchemy Club through the business card given to him by Li Aoz. He seemed to have some commendable qualities within the club and was often asked by senior students to be his assistant, from which he benefited greatly.
The three maintained a harmonious relationship. Instead of growing apart because of Li Aoz's achievements, they became even closer to Li Aoz other.
The two of them always felt that Li Aoz had sacrificed a lot, so they would ask Li Aoz to come along for any activities. Sometimes Li Aoz would go and get some Credits from the activities, which is why they didn't achieve the great feat of losing 500 Credits after only one month of enrollment.
Li Aoz had little interest in school life, and in his view, university life was just so-so.
Unable to learn magic and knowledge, Li Aoz to do something that would benefit him.
Start exercising, practicing fighting skills and martial arts, and work on the connection between yourself and Jannia.
The purpose of the [Soul-Inscribed Sword Saint] Aoneng is now evident. As their interactions deepened, Li Aoz and Jannia's relationship improved significantly, and Jannia began to offer insightful critiques of Li Aoz's martial arts skills, providing him with numerous combat techniques.
He can't learn knowledge... but skills and routines, this kind of repetitive muscle memory, don't require any thinking at all.
Most of the Magic Workshop and facilities on campus charge a fee, but facilities like the gym are completely free. After discovering this, Li Aoz quickly became a regular at the gym.
Li Aoz basically mingled in every club imaginable—swordsmanship, Full Armor Fighting Club, Knight Etiquette Club, and so on.
Every sword-wielding training session is a focused experience of feeling the fusion of Aoneng and the body.
This is also a major characteristic of the [Conqueror] path: completely integrating Aoneng power with the physical body, using Aoneng power to replace physical strength, and achieving a power system that is completely comparable to the [Destruction] system.
Due to the physiological characteristics of the Elai Ling Race, Li Aoz's training speed was basically ineffective. After a month of training, apart from making his skin a little tighter, there seemed to be almost no muscle gain.
But appearance doesn't determine everything.
Li Aoz picked up a piece of wood between his index and middle fingers, and with a slight exertion, the entire piece of wood became blazing hot and bright in a short moment. Accompanied by a puff of white smoke, Li Aoz casually placed a crystal-clear diamond on the table.
"The compatibility between my bloodline and my body has become much higher, which has also made my control over power more precise."
He faced a large tree not far away and casually snapped his fingers.
Ping Pong —
Instantly bright white light burst forth in the air, and a powerful shockwave swept across the area, snapping the trees in half and sending dust billowing everywhere.
Rumble...
Before Li Aoz, what was once a lush and verdant forest now looked as if it had been bombarded by naval guns, turning into a barren and desolate wasteland.
The power and Echo Power brought by the bloodline spread out together, causing quite terrible damage.
"It's alright. If I were to run into Liu E again now, I could just snap my fingers and smash her to pieces."
A full month of training allowed Li Aoz to become completely accustomed to using the power of the [Bloodline].
Now, the output is more than enough. With the help of [Gravity], Li Aoz is confident that he can even carve through a starship when he goes all out.
Li Aoz casually raised his hand, used Element Architecture to restore the terrain, and turned to leave.
Today is Sunday, and school is closed.
Now that we have the strength, it's time to take back the [Crescent Moon] that belongs to us.
