A new day, a new experience.
after waking up, Ode was already roasting a Wolf, but there is no head since Ode already ate it.
"Come, eat,"
Aden sat down and ate the meat that Ode provided for him. After finished eating, he asked Ode "So, what are we going now?"
"We're going to hunt more, of course, but you'll increase your body immunity, we're going to poison lands,"
"Like, right now?"
"Yes, right now, come on, let's go, I'll let you ride me,"
"Alright alright, but I'm a little scared though, what if I die?"
"It's ok, I have a healing skill"
"Ok, let's go"
As Aden rode Ode for 6 hours, they encountered many creatures, some they avoided because it's too powerful, or they'll be killed by Ode and Aden'll steal the kills as usual, but Ode still got EXP because they're still in a party. They finally reached the poison land.
"This is called the Tarasbol Poisonswamp, it's a low-level poison land, I'll help you out"
"Alright, now what should I do?"
As he asked Ode, Ode already kicked him into one of the nearby swamps.
'What... I can't..'
He felt something entered his body, his blood vessels exploded one by one, then regenerate at a fast pace, his heart exploded and regrown, his skin corroded and regenerated, his muscle and bones exploded and regenerated again, and again, and again, and again, he felt that something has entered his body, he felt that something surrounded him. as he struggled to breathe. then, a notification appeared
[Your bones have been strengthened, Physical Defense+100, Your bones have been strengthened, Physical Defense+100, Your skin has been strengthened, Skill 'Steel Skin(Beginner)' has been upgraded to 'Steel Skin(Intermediate)'. Your muscle has been strengthened, Skill 'Muscle Strength(Beginner) has been upgraded to Muscle Strength(Intermediate)'. Mechanical Advancement(Beginner) has been upgraded to Mechanical Strength(Intermediate). Due to the advancement of your skills, You received Strength+10, Physical Prowess+20, Defense+35]
[Congratulations, You obtained the skill 'Material Regeneration(Beginner)']
He didn't notice the notifications that he was given. he was too busy trying to survive and withstand the pain. then, he felt a sensation he never felt before, like an energizing sensation. he never felt those back on Earth, it was profound, it made him think all of his past actions. He felt like he wants to be here forever, as it was meaningless to go back, to live.
[Congratulations, You obtained the skill 'Wiseful thinking(Beginner)']
[Congratulations, You obtained the skill 'Mental Fortitude(Beginner)']
Then, He was forced to be brought back by a force, and then, he opened his eyes. The sky has gone dark, opposite when he came here. then He saw Ode smiling at him, although it was a deer, it felt more human than some humans back on Earth.
"Damn, Ode, why did you do that? I was on heaven back there, why did you ruin my fun?"
"That's the poison of Tarasbol Poisonswamp, it first hurt you and regenerates your body over and over, eventually strengthening your body, then it hurts your mind, making you think for countless centuries until you become truly one with it, the word poison here is not something like venom or some substance, but it is something that gives you benefits first then blinding you with it. then eventually it'll take control of you, to strengthening itself, and to add more puppet to its hierarchy. this Tarasbol Poisonswamp is just a parasite in a larger being, we live in an island called Lamian island, our island is larger than those of your earth, and this island we stood here is living, you could call it a living titanlands, and titanlands are still on the weaker end of the spectrum. they preyed on those who are weaker than them and slaughtered by those who are stronger than them, titanlands are a delicacy among them. but even then, they still, are on the weaker end of the spectrum."

"Oh, I get it now. so you're sending me here to strengthen my body first. I can feel my robotic hands upgrading, how could it do that?"
"For beings in such caliber as the Tarasbol Poisonswamp, elements could be easily manipulated. Your robotic hands now are upgraded to a higher form of materials, it could easily surpass those of mithril by a sheer margin,"
"Isn't mithril just a fiction?"
"Nope, it's something we commonly use to build fence and barriers"
Aden was astonished, mithril, in older fiction works, are something that cannot be toppled, it was mythical, but here... it was just as worthless as a grass. If any of the Dwarves heard what Ode said, they would go crazy how their most sought mithril would be used as a fence! Insolence! Madness! but then... that indicates more powerful materials are here... waiting to be plundered... used... They'll go mad going to this world, in fact... there are dwarves, Aden just didn't know yet.
Then, he checked his stat, he was surprised at his tremendous upgrade. he could one-handedly massacre a city now, unless those mechas and powerful sci-fi tech came to him. he would be invincible. He then realized that he was just a weakling, in a world that seemed endless.
"Alright let's go back, many beings will wake up at night, I don't want to risk myself here, let's go."
"Alright."
As they rode together in the endless nights, countless stars are in the skies. It looked very beautiful, more than those Night skies of the Earth, it was mesmerizing. then They arrived in a cave.
"Lets stay here first. I'll look for meat and you do what you do, don't make noise,"
"Alright, Boss"
Then he killed a creature what seemed like a slime, only that it is soft solid, unlike slime whereas their body is soft, but not solid. then he rested his head in the creature's carcass. He accidentally fell asleep. Then he was woken up by Ode.
"Hey, wake up, eat first before you sleep."
Aden was woken up by Ode, he woke up fast, maybe it was because the effect of Evolving into a higher being, or simply leveling up made him more Inlenient to mortal needs. he could sleep 2 hours a day now and be energized. He then ate the bear Ode has prepared for him, then sleep shortly thereafter.
"Hey, wake up, boy. we're going to power level today."
"Alright, when?"
"Now. Pack up your stuff, quick."
Aden packed all his stuff quickly and then rode Ode. They traveled until they encountered a beast. Aden leveled up pretty fast as he's still below level 1000
[You leveled up, Allstat+1]
[You leveled up, All.....]
then it goes on and on and on and on for 200 times. He is on level 300 now, he could feel his strength exploding. his muscle is developed. He was once skinny, being a merc. Now he's more of a wealthy individual that has gone to a gym once a day. his belly has now formed to a six-pack. His face looks smoother, and all his scars from his working day have been reduced into nothingness. He felt great about himself. But then he realized again that he's still a frog in a well.
[Congratulations, You obtained the skill 'Concealing(Beginner)']

[Congratulations, You obtained the skill 'Areakeep(Beginner)']
"Ooh, two new skills"
"It's nothing out of the ordinary"
"Let's upgrade your Telepathy skill, it's easy, just probe the memories of all the dead things around you,"
"Alright, I'll test out on this tiger right here."
Aden looked at the dead carcass and activated the telepathy skill, alas, there appeared nothing.
"Yours is still at beginner level, you need to open up the head and touch the brain."
Because Aden has the experience of a merc, he is very familiar with the sights of extreme violence, so it was no problem to touch a brain.
"Activate Probing"
In a brink of a second, countless memories appeared onto his head, from the day the bear was born, a village full of bears, his mother dying because of a Spider venom, the day he was exiled because of treason, just to save his mother, the day where he encountered Aden, and the moment he died. Aden felt like crying looking at this memory, he felt bad that he had killed it.
[Your skill 'Telepathy(Beginner)' has been upgraded to 'Telepathy(Intermediate)]
"Hisydema, how much I need to upgrade through levels?"
[Depends on the rarity of the skill. Common like telepathy needs only one to upgrade from beginner to intermediate, and to intermediate to advanced is 1000 actions, and from advanced to mythical is 100000 actions, from mythical to legendary is 1 million, and to upgrade that telepathy skill to a higher level, you need 10 million actions. or you could seek the power of Sol]
"What is that?"
[It's a power that focused on the soul and mind. it will help you greatly, from mental defense to offense, and it could upgrade all your abilities related to soul and mind greatly]
"Oh, is it rare?"
[Yes, very]
"Can you lead me to it?"
[No. Find it yourself]
"Alright... too bad"
[I don't wanna be a nanny]
Then he checked his stat

'Damn, if I was in another world other than this, I would've been godlike. unfortunately...'
AIhead, which disappeared after days, suddenly spoke
{Aden, i can check other people's stat now, like in a game.}
"Aren't anyone can do that?"
{No, you can't, the deer only showed some of its abilities, he's still being cautious, thankfully i already upgraded Telepathy to (Master) so that it can't intercept into our conversation}
"How can you upgrade it so fast?"
{I have a talent in mind abilities, i suggest you find the power Hisydema mentioned, I already downloaded all Hisydema archives, the one that it gave to me. That thing is dangerous, don't get too close to it, it is very powerful}
"Alright, so what's the skill name?"
{It's called 'Inspection', I already upgraded it to (Master), so if it's not on Magical Beast level, i can take a look at its information, but if it has a higher level of telepathy or inspection, i can't see it}
"That's good, alright, i won't spread this information. You're my bro when i was still like 7 years old, anyway."
{Good, good.}
Then shortly after that, a deafening roar was heard. The calm forest now has been disrupted, the quiet noon has become similar to an apocalypse setting. the unmoving trees started moving, the treants started to run, all beings run away like they were running for their lives, Ode started to panic and communicate to one of the running creatures, then, Ode became more frantic.
"Aden, we need to run, now"
"What, why?"
"I tell you on the way, now, come on."
Then an unknown force grabbed Aden and moved him to Ode in just a split second, then he rode Ode. Ode ran as fast as it could, and from the looks of it, Ode started to fly, the speed could be estimated as fast as 19756km/hour, Ode started to take off, weridly, Aden seemed to be fine at the speed. Then he looked back and then...
A Golden Wyvern. Its height is atleast 650 meters tall. its skin is shiny gold, its skin is creating rainbows and shiny light in the yellowy red afternoon. its mighty form flies out of a big hole, presumably its lair. then, a behemoth rat-like creature shone its two horns, its horns was bright purple, unlike the two golden horns of the Golden Wyvern.
It was obvious that they're going to fight.
Then he saw what like an indicator, like in the game borderlens, or shadowy warrior, except different in fonts and simplistic. What he saw in the Golden Wyvern was a lot of purplish skull before its level. Its level was an astonishingly 900K, and there were many orbs below it, indicating its health bar was too big. On the rat-like behemoth, there were many purplish skull too. and its level is comparable to the golden wyvern. Its orbs were many, and unlike the golden orbs of the wyvern, it was purple. They seemed to notice Aden trying to look at its info, but they just shot a glance at Aden before deciding that it is not a threat to them. Aden felt like a helpless prey when they met glances, and fortunately, they did not chase after him.
{That was close, i got caught by them!}
"What do you mean?"
{They all have crazy abilities, thankfully i stored their stats in time}
"Alright, i'll check on them later"
{I suggest you to take a sleep soon, i have a new functionality}
"What is that?"
{It's a secret}
They arrived at a safe place, an underground cave or some sort, luckily there are no creatures inside so they could rest easily. Now, he is waiting the surprises AIhead told him earlier. 1 hour... 2 hours....
"Huh, where is this?"

8 117On Tilt [in progress]
Going on tilt is like falling in love: both make you foolish and should be avoided at all costs. *BROOKEI hate Dean Hollis.I tell myself that every day. And some days, I almost believe it. Some days, I sell myself on at least a solid dislike of who he is and what he stands for.Like his stupid charming smile. His stupid sculpted forearms. And his stupid addictive cologne that leaves me light in the head and weak in the knees. He's a vintage blend of infuriating and intoxicating, all in one deceptively handsome bottle.Let's not forget his notoriety for emotional hit-and-runs. Dean is a bad decision just waiting to happen. I would know.Been there, done that... Literally.*DEANI remember the first time I saw Brooke Maccabe. My first thought was, holy shit. That's the hottest girl I've ever seen. I was trying to think of a good pickup line when she walked up to our door and gave Brendan a hug.My next thought was, fuck my life. Because that dime? She was my best friend's baby sister. And she was sixteen.Verboten. Off-limits. The Demilitarized Zone. She may as well have had a blinking red neon sign over her head that read, 'Look but don't touch: Violation punishable by death'.Problem is, I really wanted to touch.And the even bigger problem is, nine years later, I did.*18+ for explicit adult content
