"Professionals are far more difficult to deal with than demonized creatures of the same rank."
Bones filled the sky. Some were like gravel, some like massive pillars, some like spider legs, some like needle-like stones. When the shattered bones overhead began to move, the suffocating pressure and inescapable terror they created were utterly lethal.
Yet in Lu PingAn's "eyes," this horrifying scene was a "treasure trove" filled with limitless wealth.
No wonder they say monsters and Professionals are fundamentally different existences. Monsters without sufficient "order" are merely moving material stockpiles. Heh, watch my Life Contract.
After understanding the structure of the bones before him, Lu PingAn used the Core Ability of his fourth-rank Fighter profession—Life Contract.
Life Contract (Silver Low Rank Professional Ability): Select one or several specific "contaminants" and carry out deep life fusion, turning them into part of one's own flesh and blood for direct use. Note: The prerequisite for using this ability is possessing the Breathing of All Things.
Taboo Items could work. Zhi Xi's metal limbs could work. Then could the contaminated bones before him work as well?
"It worked."
The erosion was even easier than Lu PingAn had expected. Through the Fighter's Core Ability, he was using the erosion and assimilation traits of his Rider.

"AAAAAH!"
Was that a scream? Was it pain? Perhaps Sarla no longer even possessed
