The Bloodline System

up here. 

Gustav moved closer to the crystal which was positioned on the right corner of the hole.

[Does host wish to absorb energy into the system]

[YES/NO]

Gustav quickly said yes and the system started absorbing the energy of the second crystal.

After the system was done absorbing the energy the same situation as the previous hole happened again.

Gustav was already prepared for it. This time he didn ’t spend up to five minutes before killing all the solar worms within the hole.

He kept calculating the amount of time left before the entire solar worms would start scurrying towards his location.

Gustav quickly bolted out of the small hole and quickly moved towards the first hole.

The first hole was where he sensed the energy to be higher and also at its purest form.

Gustav dashed into the hole without any hindrance and was surprised to see something different from the other two.

Instead of looking at the center of the hole or whatever, Gustav ’s sights were locked on the ceiling.

On the ceiling, he could see the blue crystal similar to the ones he saw in the last two holes. The difference was, this was almost twice as large, ’Nine hundred and eighty-seven thousand, ’ Gustav made use of God eyes to check the readings.

It was absolutely higher than the previous two. 

’If I ’m able to absorb this, the system would have received one-sixth of the amount of energy it needs for the next upgrade, ’ Gustav calculated, but it didn ’t look like it was going to be easy to absorb this one.

The reason for that was, Gustav couldn ’t see several solar worms coiled around this one like the previous holes. Instead, there were only two of them on the ceiling.

These two solar worms coiled around the large crystal with their eyes closed, oblivious to what was going in the surroundings but they had noticeable differences from normal blood worms.

These two were almost twice the size of a normal solar worm with redder skin and a kind of purplish scale growing on the upper part of their body.

Gustav moved some steps forward while scrutinizing both worms.

Even without the readings, he could tell that these two were not level 4 Solar worms like the rest.

Gustav moved forward to observe the worms more when one of them suddenly opened its eyes.

Sqrrrreee!

Unlike the rest, this one also sounded a bit different with a more refined tone.

The one with the opened eyes happened to be coiled around the lower part of the crystal but its shriek also woke the second one.

They looked down at Gustav from high up with a menacing expression.

Sqrrrreee! Sqrrrreee!

Both solar worms shrieked together before bolting towards Gustav with speed from upwards.

Swooonn! Swoooon!

Both solar worms happened to be crazily fast with almost twice the speed of a normal solar worm.

Gustav already sensed that they would be formidable so he activated sprint instantly.

[Sprint has been activated]

[-20 EP]

Swoooshhh!

Gustav dashed towards the left dodging both solar worms.

Bam! Bam!

The solar worms landed on the ground and immediately chased after Gustav who had just finished dodging.

Thoom!

One of them leaped in the air towards Gustav while the other darted towards him with a wide-open mouth where hundreds of sharp pointy teeth could be seen.

The wide-open mouth was big enough to fit in three humans at the same time and would easily rip them to shreds with a single gnash so Gustav had no plans of being caught by it.

He jumped backward by seventy-five feet missing the first one that leaped into the air by a few feet.

The one on the ground arrived in front of him from the left and Gustav reacted by swerving further left.

Swhhhii! 

Just as the solar worm ’s body was passing by his front after he dodged it, Gustav lowered his arms and poured as much strength as he could into it before slashing upwards with a lot of force.

Swwhhhiii! Slasshhh!

Gustav ’s sharp claws covered in whitish light traveled forward with intensity ripping apart the air.

Krryyhhrrrr!

When it made contact with the solar worm, It tore a sixteen inches deep gash on its body sending it flying several feet forward.

’What the…? ’ Gustav was surprised that he didn ’t manage to deal more damage than that since he used all of his strength in that attack earlier.

Sqrrrreee!

The solar worm shrieked out in pain after receiving that attack from Gustav but that attack wasn ’t enough to severely harm it.

Immediately it landed back on the ground, it dashed out crazily towards Gustav again.
