Chapter 120 Preparation

Normally, people just had skills, but with the holy energy, this changed as those who could use it became a different class all together, and their individual value became unimaginable.

Of course, as anyone would think, the church got too stingy with these people who could harness the energy, and began gathering too much power because of this. If the government hadn’t given away just a palm size of the rock to the church and kept the remaining that was at least the size of a bucket, that would be all for them. There were others who emerged that could also do more than one or three skills and were also considered to be some kind of magicians, but these people were extremely few, and most of them refused to work with the government.

It was very simple, since the church refused to work with the government, they decided it would be better off they created their own human that could utilize the power of this stone, Holy Energy, and the scapegoat for this happened to be Ann. How she got to this position, Mina did not know, but the important thing was that she was extremely compatible with the stone, and now a piece of it was inside her.

“The good news for us is that because of her extreme compatibility, the stone had started working against her, and she might not live as long as is intended.” Mina said.

“Well, such is the case of first experiments.” Victor answered.

As for why Mina left the facility, the energy was affecting her quite a bit, and the one coming from Ann, the lab rat, seemed to be even more effective against her, so she had to leave. Ann hadn’t gotten complete control of her powers yet and was still being thought, so the energy was all over the place. The energy did seem to have an effect on those around, but it was simple things like bringing happiness and things like that, nothings serious.

“Alright, I get the gist of it. So, what do you vampires plan to do about this?” Victor asked, this time directing his question to the vampire lord.

“Since you showed interest in the human, we will not do anything unless you say so.” The vampire lord answered respectfully.

‘Cleaver thinking.’ Victor thought to himself.

“Very well, I will handle it myself and get what I want.” He said before getting up from his seat.

As he walked towards the doors and out of the throne room, a vampire walked up to him quietly and bowed before saying, “It has been arranged and is waiting in the regular room.” The vampire said with a bow.

To which Victor responded “Good.”

After taking the bodies, Victor left the vampire castle and returned to his house. Within this time, he also got a house of his own where he could stay without any disturbance. The house was quite big, so apart from the automatic cleaning feature that covered most of it, Victor needed at least two people to work in the house and carry out choirs and general maintenance. He could ask the one who moved the most weight in him getting the house, which would be Maggie, but he had a better way to do so.

After receiving the 200 bodies from the vampires, Victor took them into his system inventory before living. When he got home, all he had to do was raise two of the vampires to become part of his legion. Doing this opened Victor up to new information, one he had actually being thinking of.

Since the vampires were undead creatures, raising from the dead to be part of his legion didn’t change much in their physiology or anatomy, they were already undead. These two were just fledglings that had been made not too long ago, so their levels were pretty low and nothing dropped further after they were raised.

Victor granted them their previous names, Jade and Zed. Both were females, and just to add a variety, Victor decided to raise a male vampire, who he also granted their previous name, Luke. The first two were level 2 and 4 respectively, while Luke seemed to be awakened before he was turned into a vampire as his level was 12.

Though Victor planned to have them take care of the house choirs and general matters of the house, he still felt the need for them to be strong. Now that they were part of his legion, they get to experience a faster growth and even go past their limits, so there was no way he was leaving them to remain weak. He didn’t plan to make any of them part of his personal guards, at least for now. They were still regular vampires with nothing special about them. Victor could very much protect himself and didn’t need any protection, so if there was to be someone like that, they would need to be special.

For now, his legion consisted of;

Arac: Level – 60 (Semi intelligent)

Konda: Level – 62 (Semi intelligent)

Gurok: Level – 65 (Intelligent)

Amadon: Level – 70 (Intelligent)

Pyro: Level – 69 (Semi Intelligent)

Larry – 71 (Intelligent)

Shanok – 82 (Intelligent)

Jade – 2 (intelligent)

Zed – 4 (intelligent)

Luke – 12 (intelligent)

..

After experimenting on them, Victor was able to boost their intelligence to different degrees. Some like Arac had began approaching their limit, and levelling further was proving to be extremely difficult. The problem lied in the fact that Victor couldn’t find monsters that were worth being part of his legion. In the end, being too strong was the root problem… Who would have thought?

For their training, Victor delegated it to Shanok and Amadon to oversee. Shanok was more of a magician, and was one of those that wasn’t constricted by skills and could learn a bit more than a normal awakened could, so if any of the vampires leaned towards their skills more than physical strength and capabilities, he would guide them. As for those that were physical attributed, Amadon was the man for the job, as at the moment he was the one most versed in that aspect.

With the training plan sort out, Victor teleported himself and the three new legion members and took them to the entrance of one of the dungeons ranked as one that was approaching A, pretty much something on the level of the dungeon he was born in.

Finding a dungeon of such rank was extremely easy, as Victor had visited most of the dungeons within his area of search, coupled with the fact that higher ranked dungeons had started appearing more frequently as of late, it was all very easy.

“Alright, as that has been taken care of, let’s get to the main treat.”
