#441 - Chapter 441: The Transformation of the Demonic Hero (Part 2)
Unlike the Imp Matriarch Caroline and the Plague Breeder Mara, Hendricks didn't gain many new skills after transforming into a Legendary being.
At this moment, besides gaining a Legendary ability—[Form Liberation. Blood Sea]—he didn't acquire any new abilities.
However, this doesn't mean he is weak or that his growth is poor.
On the contrary, among all the demon heroes, Hendricks has the highest skill damage and physical damage!
With his Berserk Blood Qi skill, he can deal up to 6000 points of true damage directly. Moreover, when he has a host and the host hasn't died, he essentially possesses the highest attack speed among all heroes.
Coupled with the Bloodthirster skill granting him super regeneration, Hendricks can, whenever he wants, start a 'Musou' in the enemy's army.
However, apart from his regular skills, Wu Wei himself was very curious about Hendricks' Legendary skill.
After all, this Legendary ability not only grants Hendricks and his host high stacking attributes but also temporarily restores Hendricks' true form.
And since Wu Wei knew nothing about Hendricks' true form, he couldn't wait to have the Blood Driver demonstrate it after obtaining this ability.
————————————
Unsurprisingly, Hendricks thought the same way.
After receiving his lord's order, Hendricks, in immense excitement, directly activated the [Form Liberation. Blood Sea] skill.
Boom!
As the Blood Driver Hendricks' Legendary ability activated, the Lesser Demon he was currently possessing turned directly into a pool of blood mist.
Within this blood mist, a large, constantly wriggling blood clot was rapidly expanding.
However, the color of this blood clot was the most vibrant red Wu Wei had ever seen!
Even though the blood clot was located within a blood mist made of blood, its color was still so distinct.
Moreover, the most bizarre thing was that this blood clot was constantly booming as it expanded.
The booming of a heart!
Its booming, like some kind of special rhythm, guided the surrounding blood mists, making them perform some irregular movements around it.
Finally....
“Haha...”
“Hahahaha!”
A small giant, about four meters tall, walked out from the blood mist.
“It has been so long, so long since I have...”
This small giant's body was blood-red, and both his muscles and bones were translucent.
However, within his translucent body, a seductive red 'heart' was constantly beating in his chest.
Driven by this heart, every step he took, every breath he took, would cause countless blood to move rapidly within his translucent body.
And at this moment, Wu Wei realized a very important point.
That was that Hendricks' 'main body,' the single-edged longsword, had been re-grasped in his hand.
At this time, the patterns representing Hendricks on this single-edged longsword had completely disappeared.
Replaced by the mysterious symbols representing the Lord of the Abyss.
Wu Wei could feel the pressure brought by the top creatures of the Abyss just by seeing these symbols.
This pressure could even make this Abyss Lord feel a bit suffocated....
“Using this body, I can feel the beauty of this real world!”
“War, blood, slaughter, death, and conquest, this is what I should be enjoying!”
“And I have cultivated for far too long.”
After expressing his feelings, Hendricks didn't forget the Abyss Lord beside him.
The blood giant knelt piously before Wu Wei.
“Praise you, the great Abyss Lord.”
“It is you, whose soul is as pure as a black sun, who redeemed me, and I will fulfill the promise I once made to you, bringing you ten thousand victories....”
“Mm.”
Unlike the extremely excited Hendricks, Wu Wei, who had already read Hendricks' attributes, remained very calm.
“Just remember your oath....”
After saying that, Wu Wei reached out and waved at Herl, who was not far away.
And this demon hero, who had been waiting for a long time, finally ushered in his chance for evolution.
Like his previous colleagues, Wu Wei took Herl to the front of the Sin Temple and pressed the evolution option for him.
And soon, the Child of Purity, Herl, completed his evolution....
————————————
The attributes of the Child of Purity Herl after evolution are as follows:
【Child of Purity—Herl】
【Hero Level: 77 (Experience: 0/17522500)】
【Hero Attributes: Strength 225 Intelligence 15 Stamina 2200 Perception 7 Agility 55 Charm -17.....】
【Current Rank: Legendary!】
【Health Points: 14500, Mana Points: 0】
【Physical Defense: 980, Magic Defense: 675】
【Hero Skill One: Pure Body LV22】
【Pure Body: Passive Skill.】
【Skill Effect: Because the Child of Purity Herl possesses a powerful body born from the plague, Herl is permanently immune to bleeding, grounding, dizziness, silence, imprisonment... and most other negative effects.】
【Note: This skill is not a body-dominance skill, so the Child of Purity Herl cannot be immune to the forced displacement skills released by enemies.】
【Hero Skill Two: Pure Blood LV10 (Can no longer be upgraded; reaching the Demigod rank is required to continue upgrading!)】
【Pure Blood: Passive Skill】
【Skill Effect: Herl's blood has been tempered by the plague and possesses extremely strong vitality, so he can restore 10% of his maximum health points every second.】
【Note: This recovery effect will not be interrupted by any non-space-time skills!】
【Hero Skill Three: Plague Bandage LV20】
【Plague Bandage: Passive Skill】
【Skill Effect: The bandages on Herl's body will possess extremely strong bacterial contagiousness due to long-term infection. Any enemy that comes into contact with Herl will inevitably be infected with bacteria, and there is no limit to the types of bacteria infected.】
【Hero Skill Four: Plague Symbiosis LV1 (New Legendary Skill).】
【Plague Symbiosis: Passive Skill】
【Skill Effect: Due to the Child of Purity Herl's long-term coexistence with the plague, the Child of Purity Herl can benefit from the plagues created by his sister—the Plague Breeder Mara.】
【For every plague created by Mara that the Child of Purity Herl infects himself with, his basic attributes (including physical defense, magic defense, and physical attack, etc.) will increase by 5 points.】
【Note: The upper limit of attribute value gain that can be obtained from the current Plague Symbiosis is 20 types of plagues (100 attribute points).】
【Hero Skill Five: Black Death Slime (New Legendary Skill)】
【Black Slime: Passive Skill】
【Skill Effect: After the Child of Purity Herl successfully overcame the negative effects brought by the plague, the holes in his body can now flow out deadly, contaminating Black Death Slime!】
【Any enemy hit by the Black Death Slime will suffer up to 500 points of plague damage.】
【Moreover, this Black Death Slime is extremely contagious, so when an enemy is contaminated and killed by the Black Death Slime, their corpse will also be contaminated by the Black Death Slime, decomposed, and produce more Black Death Slime.】
【Note: Black Death Slime will not work on non-carbon-based life forms. Spiritual life forms, fire elements, earth elements, and other creatures can completely exempt this damage, while undead and other creatures with flesh but without active flesh will reduce half of the Black Death Slime damage.】
【Note: This skill can be purified by divine arts and technological means, but magical skills cannot purify this skill.】
【Legendary Ability: Virus Monarch LV1!】
【Passive Effect of Virus Monarch: Any enemy hit by Herl's Plague Bandage skill and Black Death Slime skill will, after their health drops to half, have their brains and nervous systems invaded by the diseases infected by the Child of Purity, forcibly transforming them into "Pathogen Zombies."】
【Note: All Pathogen Zombies will be temporarily regarded as friendly units by the Endless Abyss forces and can enjoy the attribute bonus of the Black Sun.】
【Note: The attributes of the Pathogen Zombies will inherit the original host's attributes, but their attribute values will decrease as the body is contaminated.】
【Active Effect of Virus Monarch: The Child of Purity Herl's body has been further transformed, so his left arm will have the ability of a "Flesh Aggregation Cannon."】
【Moreover, Herl's Flesh Aggregation Cannon can also convert the impurities and some plague spores in his body into flesh and blood shells, which are used to attack enemies and cause considerable physical damage.】
【Flesh Aggregation Cannon Damage: 625 points of fixed physical damage + a random plague infection.】
【Note: The fixed physical damage of the Flesh Aggregation Cannon will only increase with the improvement of the Virus Monarch Legendary ability.】
【Sea of Mind: Not ignited (requires Demigod).】
【Equipment: Stinky Grief Leather Boots, Cursed Dark Gold Ring X10, Finger Bone Hammer, etc.】
【Loyalty: 100 (Permanent).】
【Other: Omitted.】
【Evaluation: Herl and Mara, this pair of siblings, have always been symbols of suffering and plague. However, unlike Mara, who creates the plague, the Child of Purity Herl was once regarded as hope in the plague, and he was once called—the Plague Walker!】
————————
“Phew!”
“A great profit!”
After Wu Wei completed the upgrade work for Herl, he immediately exclaimed.
The reason why he said this was that the upgraded form of the Child of Purity Herl was very in line with Wu Wei's "aesthetic"!
Although Herl's height was only about five or six meters after reaching the legendary rank, which was not too high.
But the problem is that Herl's muscles under the bandages are indeed the most burly among all the demon heroes.
If there is a bodybuilding competition in the abyss now, then the Child of Purity Herl is definitely the well-deserved first.
More importantly....
The Child of Purity Herl's arm was too "dazzling" in Wu Wei's eyes!
At this time, Herl's arm has become a giant cannon thicker than his waist because of the re-transformation.
Although it is a bit naive to say so, this is indeed Wu Wei's true thoughts...
——————————————
“Phew, although upgrading my demon heroes cost me nearly two billion resource points.”
“But judging from the increase in their attributes, this money was very well spent.”
After finishing the upgrade process of the demon heroes, Wu Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
However, there was also his wallet that breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at his almost depleted resource points, Wu Wei's heart began to be filled with the desire for war.
Just like the abyss mother Wu Wei served, the fewer resource points Wu Wei had available, the more he craved war.
So, after all the hero units were upgraded, Wu Wei issued his new order.
That is to let all the demon heroes prepare for war.
He is going to open the portal to the [Beast Ancestor's Back Garden]!
But just at this time....
A gust of wind with a scorched smell blew past Wu Wei.
And at this moment, Wu Wei suddenly realized one thing.
That is, he has upgraded the Imp Matriarch Caroline, the Plague Breeder Mara, the Child of Purity Herl, and the Blood Driver Hendricks to legendary or legendary peak levels.
But it is worth mentioning that these four demon heroes are not all the demon heroes Wu Wei owns.
There are still two demon heroes who have not been upgraded.
One of the demon heroes is the Great Devourer Sower.
Fortunately, this demon hero, who looks exactly like a black slime, does not need Wu Wei to upgrade him because of his special structure.
But there is still one.....
As the stinky wind became more and more intense.
A Chaos Type I warrior controlled by the electronic demon Kerr came to Wu Wei with the electronic screen in his hand.
【Hello】
“Uh.....”
Looking at the electronic screen in Kerr's hand, Wu Wei scratched his head.
Things, began to become embarrassing.
——————————
“Ahem, my dearest and most loyal Kerr.”
Wu Wei, who had almost no money left, put his arms around the electronic demon Kerr without any hesitation, and said very affectionately.
“That....”
“First of all, I want to declare that I treat all my subordinates equally!”
“Every demon hero is no different from my child in my eyes, but...”
When it came to but, Wu Wei's tone became much heavier.
“You know the situation in our territory, right.”
When he said this, the electronic screen of Kerr made a [- -] expression with symbols.
“We're poor, you know. If we weren't, I would definitely help you upgrade properly.”
“Plus, we're about to go to war with the Orcs, and your abilities aren't very effective against those Orcs who are still in the Stone Age, so...”
“Your upgrade needs to be put on hold for a little bit.”
“Of course, it's really just temporary!”
“Once I have some money to spare, I swear, as the Abyss Lord, I will prioritize upgrading you!”
“Next time... for sure!”
Looking at the Abyss Lord's earnest vow, the Electronic Devil nodded helplessly.
Seeing the Electronic Devil Koyle like this, Wu Wei felt relieved.
“In that case, let the...”
“War begin!”
With the Abyss Lord's grin, several Abyss Teleportation Gates stood tall in Wu Wei's territory.
On this side of the territory was the terrifying and profound Abyss territory.
And on the other side was the territory of the Orcs' progenitor, the True God Beast Ancestor.
The clash between the two had finally begun!
