Chapter 99 - Double Enhancement!
After pondering something for a few moments, the sunglasses man suddenly opened his mouth and said to his subordinate.
"Fashionable Garment Reaper, change of plans, we have to kill that brat."
"Boss, are you sure?" The subordinate doubtfully asked in return.
"Hm, I am well aware that we were only supposed to interrogate him, but that young lord did not tell us to bring the brat to him alive and only said to confirm his ability. But so far, the brat hadn\'t even used his transformation ability, hell, I don\'t even know what ability he is using right now against us." The sunglasses man said in clear annoyance.
The subordinate pondered his words and then doubtfully asked once again: "Boss, are you saying that maybe that young lord had been mistaken…?"
The sunglasses man slowly nodded still with a pondering expression.
The subordinate also thought about it for a bit and said: "Boss may be right. That brat had somehow killed our gang\'s most important member that had rare support abilities. I can\'t even comprehend or fathom how our supporter suddenly died. After all, we gave him so many protective artifacts that we got our hand on."
And then he paused for a moment and continued: "That brat\'s attacks seemed capable of ignoring the many protective artifacts like nothing and then killing him instantly. Now that I am thinking about it, just what kind of terrifying technique is this brat using? Just now, he almost hit me with some ripple attack…"
The sunglasses man cut him off and coldly said: "Enough nonsense! Since when do you use that head of yours? Don\'t you understand that it is because of this reason that he has to die? We cannot leave someone like him alive no matter what. Otherwise, in case he comes to our doorstep to cause us trouble in the future, no one can stop him."
"Understood, boss. I hate thinking with my head as it hurts my head to think about unnecessary things. I was originally thinking of killing him too with my earlier attacks; it\'s just that the brat is too nimble coupled with his headache-inducing stealth ability." The subordinate quickly agreed with the sunglasses man and said.
"I suppose it\'s about time to get more serious…" He then muttered with an excited voice.
After saying so, fashionable garment reaper, as the subordinate was called by his boss, suddenly tossed his precious scythe into the air to let it fall back down.
And almost right away, his clothes changed into a fashionable armor set made entirely out of energy, but at the same, they were so thin as if they were his real clothes.
A second later, the scythe landed back into his hand as it immediately dissolved.
To be more precise, it was absorbed into his hand, disappearing into his palm.
The next moment, from his palm, a new weapon started to appear as it gradually morphed into something.
And very soon, the manifested new weapon\'s appearance was then revealed to be a long solid object.
An intricate Long Handgun!
This handgun seemed not to have any magazine slot to insert ammunition.
However, he was capable of charging the gun with his energy to shoot an energy blast, capable of causing some devastating damage, almost as if it were a massive explosion.
This subordinate of the sunglasses man, most of the time, preferred to be referred to as, \'Fashionable Garment Reaper\' due to his insane fascination and attachments towards scythe-type weapons, coupled with his weird sense of fashion.
Nevertheless, whenever the situation called for it, the things he would create with his creation-type ability would be full of innovation.
Right now, they were facing an invisible yet somewhat perceptible enemy and the only way to win is to track him down and then kill him off with this new creation of his, the \'Plasma\' Handgun.
The new weapon he created was based on the plasma gun developed by the magical technology division of the current world.
At this point, he had already manifested the intricate but fancy gun and taken a hold of it.
And the next moment, he immediately started charging it with his internal energy.
…
On the other end.
A few moments ago, when the two people, the sunglasses man and his subordinate were having their discussion among themselves, Randy took this chance to stand still without making any movement.
That was because the other parties roughly knew where he was currently, so they were most likely loud enough so that he could hear them.
Probably to rile him up so that he makes a move just so they could elicit some reaction from him, most likely to confirm what kind of ability he would use against them.
Nevertheless, no matter the reason behind them speaking so loudly, they appeared to be very serious about killing him based on what Randy had heard from them alone.
At this point, Randy ignored their later discussions as he quickly thought of ways to defeat these opponents without exposing himself to danger.
He thought about maybe using magic, but then he disregarded this thought as that would give him away since a magic circle would need to be constructed and then manifested to use a magic spell.
His thoughts quickly turned, and then he thought of undoing his current assimilated state and using his werewolf form instead since that form could drastically increase his basic statistics.
However, after deeply thinking about this solution, he realized a certain fact, that is, the possibility of making himself vulnerable to any long-range attack if there are any.
\'What do I do? If only I could use more than one assimilated state…
\'Wait a minute, more than one?! Why didn\'t I think about this before?\'
\'Now that I think about it, did the system say anything regarding using more than one assimilated state?\'
\'No, I don\'t think so. This is worth a try, and if it is possible, then I can get double enhancement from both states.\'
\'But before that…\'
After thinking of this possible solution, he quickly glanced in front of himself.
Right now, he was looking at his system\'s display, and then he silently said in his mind.
\'System, is it possible to use more than one assimilated state at the same time?\' Randy asked.
[[Indeed, it is possible. The host can use more than one assimilated state at the same time, however, bear in mind that using more than one assimilated state at the same time would put a heavy strain on your physical body and possibly your mental state. In any case, that would solely depend on which assimilated states were activated together.]]
[[Warning: It is recommended that the host only use two assimilated states at this point, otherwise there would be some tremendous aftereffects.]]
The system explained and then warned.
\'So it is indeed possible…? Hahaha... Ahem, now then, time to get serious too…\'
After hearing the system\'s confirmation, Randy was suddenly filled with joy and instantly gained more confidence than before.
As for the assimilated states\' warning, it does not matter because right now, he only had two usable assimilated states anyway.. That burglar\'s assimilated blood had converted into his very own blood and thus lost its effect to perform a true assimilated state transformation; the same goes for Jiang Chen\'s blood.
