Inside the room, dense Elemental Magical Energy surged and rippled, and from Transcendent perspective, elemental particles flew around like fireflies.
On the ground, a large pile of blood-red crystals reflected streaks of blood-red light under the illumination of the lamp.
These crimson crystals, known as "Blood Marrow," are formed from the condensed essence of living beings' blood and flesh, containing immense vitality and capable of enhancing physical attributes.
On the pile of Blood Marrow lay a head, with countless threads extending from it, piercing into the Blood Marrow to draw upon its vast life force to repair itself.
Visibly, the flesh on the head began to rapidly fill out, and the neck below slowly grew out, followed by the internal organs, bones, limbs, and other parts of the body...
"Terrifying vitality. No wonder they are a race known for their immortal blood. Even if they are not pure -Blood Clan, they still possess such terrifying regenerative abilities. Just how powerful are those pure-blooded Infinite Serpent? Is this the bloodline of Demigod?" Gustavo murmured to himself.
The bloodline of the Dragon-Hunting Spider Clan has reached the Epic level, which is already quite remarkable in the Astral Realm.
However, the Infinite Serpent Clan possesses Demigod bloodlines; pure- Blood Clan become Demigod upon reaching adulthood, making them far stronger than the Dragon-Hunting Spider Clan.
After observing for a while, Gustavo's eyes flickered slightly. "It's time."
"Death Knell!"
With a thought from Gustavo, a pure black, two-meter-tall clock appeared above his head.
when--
The bell tolls, its sound waves rolling, carrying a dual impact on the spirit and soul.
The unfamiliar ally, who was drawing life force from the other, suddenly stiffened. The ego, which was already in a coma, fell into an even deeper slumber.
"Hmm, not bad, didn't damage his soul essence." Gustavo muttered, then with a flash of his blade, he sliced off a large chunk of flesh from his ally and threw it directly into his mouth.
"Anyway, you can grow back, so it's not too much for me to eat a little, right?" Gustavo thought guiltily.
The chunk of meat containing the bloodline of the Infinite Serpent was swallowed and immediately broken down by Gustavo's exceptionally powerful stomach.
With the Luck attribute reaching 31 points, the probability of successfully activating the Predator talent becomes higher, and soon some gene fragments are plundered and stored in the Gene Warehouse.
After a quick look at the types and levels of the looted gene fragments, Gustavo's eyes lit up.
"So many intermediate-level gene fragments, and three high-level ones too. No wonder it's the Infinite Serpent bloodline. Next time, I wonder if I can get some top-level gene fragments..."
With a piercing glint in his eyes, Gustavo sliced off another piece of fresh flesh and swallowed it in a flash.
And so, while using his Blood Marrow to heal his unfamiliar ally, he also cut off pieces of flesh, swallowed them, and extracted the gene fragments from them.
As time passed, the injuries of the unfamiliar ally improved, and his physical body was basically restored. Correspondingly, his mental will also gradually strengthened, and he quickly broke free from the negative status of soul dizziness imposed by Gustavo.
"The last time, the last time..." Gustavo's eyes widened, and with another slash, a large chunk of flesh flew out.
But just as the flesh and blood landed in his mouth, his unfamiliar ally's eyes snapped open.
Their eyes met, Gustavo still had a piece of fresh flesh dangling from his mouth.
The air became unusually quiet.
The situation was a bit awkward.
"Ahem, I just wanted to test your regenerative abilities." Gustavo calmly returned the flesh and blood.
The stranger silently took it and pressed it against his lower abdomen. The granulation tissue grew rapidly, and in just two or three seconds, it had grown taller, with smooth and fair skin, seemingly unharmed.
"Thank you!" A deep, magnetic voice echoed in my ears.
This ally did not pursue Gustavo's previous actions.
For him, the debt of being saved was infinitely greater than any amount of flesh and blood.
Moreover, from the moment he regained consciousness, he recognized Gustavo's identity.
Dragon-Hunting Spider, Mitrola Clan, are blood-sworn allies of the Infinite Serpent.
Gustavo waved his hand magnanimously, "It's nothing, it only cost about six or seven million Ta Pound. You don't need to pay me back; I've always regarded money as dirt."
"Okay!" The unfamiliar ally nodded.
Gustavo's face stiffened.
Seriously, bro? I was just kidding, you're really not going to pay me back?
At first, Gustavo thought the other person was joking, but seeing his serious expression, he immediately realized that this guy was damn stubborn.
"..."
Thinking about this, Gustavo just wanted to slap himself hard. "Serves you right for being so modest! You've lost millions of Ta Pound, haven't you?"
"Could I have a piece of clothing?" the stranger asked.
"Here, it's all prepared for you. Go get it yourself," Gustavo said, tossing his head in displeasure.
The unfamiliar ally clearly lacked emotional intelligence, completely unaware of Gustavo's unusual behavior. He walked straight past him naked, picked up his clothes from the ground, and put them on.
He finished dressing in no time.
From a human aesthetic point of view, this guy is definitely a super handsome man who could charm countless girls.
Her face was sharply defined, with sculpted features and fair skin like jade, making her a perfect figure with golden proportions.
However, what's most striking is his eyes.
Sharp as a sword, like a roc in the sky or an eagle in the clouds, looking down upon the world.
That domineering and unruly spirit, even when faced with great calamity, was never lost. On the contrary, it was tempered by the tribulations and became even more dazzling, like a pearl that had been reborn.
Gustavo couldn't help but admire it in his heart.
"Thank you for saving my life, Fujia the Ring Snake will never forget it!"
After getting dressed, the man named Fujia placed his right hand on his chest and gave Gustavo a solemn bow with an extremely serious expression.
Judging from his expression, it seems that if Gustavo had asked him to go with him to fight the Demigod, this guy wouldn't have hesitated for a second.
"Gustavo Bo Er Lunba Kolandov..."
According to the custom of the Dragon-Hunting Spider Clan, when making friends with allies, they usually reveal their real names.
Unlike the Devil Clan, the true name of the Dragon-Hunting Spider is not something that cannot be known; it is just a common name.
Thousands of syllables came out of Gustavo's mouth, Fujia listened intently.
It took Gustavo about three minutes to finish saying his real name. He thought to himself, "Next time I should just use telepathy. Saying a name is like reading an article."
After exchanging names, Gustavo and Fujia started chatting.
From this ally, Gustavo learned about the cause and effect between Fujia and the black Mage, and was somewhat speechless.
"He challenged you to a one-on-one fight, and you actually believed him?" Gustavo asked incredulously.
"Hmm." Fujia nodded slightly.
Gustavo was speechless. "You're such an innocent kid," he thought. "Look what happened; you got ganged up on!"
"Remember this from now on: a one-on-one fight is a group of people against one person; our side must always have the majority..."
Gustavo felt it necessary to impart some survival experience to this dim-witted ally.
So he began to speak at length.
The best strategy is to launch a surprise attack from the shadows.
If you can outsmart someone, don't confront them head-on.
He frowned and shielded everyone in front of him.
Never reveal your hand...
Fujia listened attentively, realizing that his defeat at the hands of Wight was due to his lack of experience, and that he needed to learn from his ally's mistakes.
After all, Gustavo had severely injured Wight and forced him to flee.
After a long while, Gustavo let out a sigh of relief.
"Have you written everything down?"
"I've got it." Fujia vigorously.
"Hmm, you're a quick learner. From now on, use the methods I've taught you, and you'll definitely be able to dominate Planet Pandora." Gustavo laughed heartily. He had to admit, talking to Fujia was quite interesting. This guy might not be good with words, but he was definitely a great listener.
"What are you planning to do next?" Gustavo asked. If possible, he would certainly like to bring Fujia under his wing. Although the guy was incredibly reckless, he was definitely a good helper, the kind who would give his life for him.
Unfortunately, Luck Deprivation from him, which destined Gustavo to walk alone.
