Earth's Best Gamer Chapter 61 - Fusion: Commander-Level

Chapter 61: Fusion: Commander-Level

That’s right, what Ji Ye was worried about was the “Soul race” that destroyed the Ren Hamlet!

According to Senior Brother Zhou, such creatures that resembled ghosts were best at controlling other creatures’ corpses to kill.

And don’t forget that Lu Zhishen used a rock to smash an Eagle Man to death under his command.

After that, the Eagle Man’s corpse was thrown off the cliff. According to the crucial information provided by Director Zhou, there were no “cliffs” between the various settlements.

This meant that the bottom of the cliff was most likely the settlement of an alien race!

Of course, he wasn’t entirely sure if it was the Soul race, but it was very likely that it was a Soul Attack creature!

“Looks like I have to implement my previous idea. Thankfully, there’s still time.”

…

The two soldiers stayed farther away to monitor the cliff.

After returning to the village, Ji Ye went straight to his room and took out the Totem Wolf Skin.

[A piece of treasure skin brought back by the Blue Alpha Wolf from the Wolf Tomb. It contains a large amount of soul power. It’s said to contain the Secret of Inheritance of the Steelback Blue Wolves!]

This piece of wolf skin was undoubtedly very mysterious.

An Extraordinary Rank-1 Blue Alpha Wolf could actually “summon” an Extraordinary Rank-3 wolf soul after offering half its blood.

Previously, it could absorb soul power on its own. Otherwise, the injured soldier might not have been saved.

Not to mention that it clearly contained the Steelback Blue Wolves’ Secret of Inheritance.

Originally, the Secret of Inheritance of the wolves was clearly not something a human could comprehend, but…

Ji Ye was different.

This was because the hourgla.s.s that represented the cooldown of the Fusion talent had already disappeared.

This meant he could “fuse” a fifth time.

Fusion: Totem Wolf Skin!

Ji Ye activated his fifth Fusion in the Land of Inheritance.

This time, the light appeared on the wolf skin in his hand, but it was not the white light from before.

It was a silver light that he had never seen before!

Without a doubt, this “wolf skin” contained some kind of power that exceeded the Ordinary and Extraordinary level.

This was not surprising at all.

After all, although the Steelback Blue Wolf was only a lesser demon in Journey to the West, it was impossible for a lesser demon who could be used as vanguard and even dared to scheme against Monkey to not have any capabilities.

Besides, in a world with a power system like Journey to the West, even if it was a lesser demon, it could still sweep across the present Twin Dragon Mount.

The wolf skin was mixed with silver light, while Ji Ye’s body was glowing with white light.

That’s right. The target he chose to fuse with the Wolf Skin was himself!

Of course, he definitely didn’t want to fuse the wolf skin with his body. He had another goal.

During the previous fusions, Ji Ye had discovered something. In fact, he could interfere with the fusion process!

For example, when he fused the ZIPPO lighter with the Bronze Bolt, he could choose to prioritize one item or even only fuse the gas or parts of the lighter.

For example, when he fused with the Heavy Bulldozer Crossbow, he could also change the shape and structure of the crossbow.

Of course, once this effect was applied, it would also lead to a change in the outcome of the fusion. Perhaps it could reach perfection in a single step and become a Perfect-grade equipment, but it could also directly become trash!

This was why he did not interfere with the previous fusions.

However, Ji Ye definitely could not fuse the wolf skin with his body this time. He fused the “Soul Power” and the “Secret of Inheritance” in the wolf skin!

The fusion took longer than any of the previous ones.

An hour later, the white light on the seated Ji Ye and the silver light on the wolf skin disappeared.

However, a silver totem appeared on Ji Ye’s forehead.

So this is the secret of the wolf skin!

[Alpha Wolf’s Mark]

[Level: Special]

[Rarity: Superior]

[Description: The Alpha Wolf’s Mark of the Steelback Blue Wolves. With this mark, all Steelback Blue Wolves will regard you as their alpha. Other kinds of wolves will also recognize your status.]

Ji Ye’s expression was slightly odd.

Did this mean that he had become the alpha of the Steelback Blue Wolves after defeating the Alpha Wolf?

Would a human not be exposed after obtaining the Alpha Wolf’s Mark?

Ji Ye was not worried. The demon kings in Journey to the West could take human forms. The Monkey could not even see through some demons with his eyes. When the time came, those wolves would probably think that he was resourceful and powerful!

However, compared to the Alpha Wolf’s Mark, the biggest gain from this fusion should be the improvement in strength.

The wolf skin contains a large amount of soul power. During the fusion process, it’s like a boost to my soul.

It’s as strong as a peak Extraordinary Rank-2 soul creature!

Ji Ye thought.

This was what he learned from the wolf skin during the fusion process.

After his soul was elevated, Ji Ye’s evaluation finally changed.

[Rarity: Commander]

He had finally reached the level of a true Commander. In fact, he was even higher than Lu Zhishen.

After all, his soul was only a step away from reaching Rank-3.

Apart from that, the third reward of the fusion was the wolf skin in his hand. It was not destroyed. Instead, it revealed its true attributes.

[Totem Wolf Skin]

[Level: Extraordinary Rank-3]

[Rarity: Superior]

[Description: A piece of skin from an Extraordinary Steelback Blue Alpha Wolf’s body. Through the Alpha Wolf’s Mark, it can condense the soul of an Extraordinary Rank-3 Alpha Wolf and control it. In a Blood Sacrifice state, it further undergoes an increase in strength!]

Whoosh!

The Alpha Wolf’s Mark appeared on Ji Ye’s forehead.

Instantly, a large amount of black gas surged out from the wolf skin and condensed beside him into a black wolf with four straight limbs standing on the ground. The tip of its tail was slightly raised. It was as large as a water buffalo, and its eyes were dark-red like burning flames!

It was ten times more arrogant than the previous alpha wolf.

After all, the alpha wolf did not receive the true inheritance of the wolf skin. It only managed to unleash some of its power through a Blood Sacrifice.

However, Ji Ye was not a real Steelback Blue Wolf. He had also suffered some “losses” from the inheritance. For example, as a piece of wolf skin of an Extraordinary creature, although this piece of wolf skin had lost a lot of its soul power after being taken away from the Wolf Tomb, the remaining parts could still help wolf descendants reach Extraordinary Rank-5.

However, because he was of the wrong species, the tempering only allowed Ji Ye’s soul to reach peak Rank-2.

As a result, the Totem Wolf Skin had degraded to the level of Extraordinary Rank-3. It needed to devour souls to gradually restore its strength!

However, the current stage of Extraordinary Rank-3 is enough.

I wasn’t sure at first, but now I’m worried that the Eagle Man won’t come again tonight.

After all, if it’s really an Extraordinary alien, that means a new human ‘hero’ is about to descend on Twin Dragon Mount.

After putting away the Totem Wolf Skin, Ji Ye revealed absolute confidence for the first time.
