Chapter 681  The first step to truly be powerful

While Galewings were not classified as the most powerful flying Thaids, they were undoubtedly beyond the reach of humans. Unless they joined forces to exterminate it, there was no manner in which they could accomplish it. Yet Erik did it. He had single-handedly killed the beast.

When his gaze shifted, he noticed a glistening item covered by the sand, lying close to the creature\'s severed neck, and to his surprise, it turned out to be its brain crystal.

The source that granted Galewing its formidable powers has now been rendered inert. As Erik stooped to pick it up, a smile appeared on his face, and he couldn\'t help but notice the cool and smooth feel of it against his skin.

Erik, with the crystal held high above his head, observed how it seized the beams of sunlight, resembling a prism that scattered them into a captivating array of colors.

The light moved and played on the surface, causing the simple act of observing to turn into a symphony of colors, resembling the way sunlight filters through stained glass in a cathedral, casting a vibrant and otherworldly glow over everything it touches.

In those passing instances, Erik granted himself the luxury of being consumed by the immense delight and thrill brought on by his extraordinary accomplishment.

Just like a mountaineer who has conquered an impossible peak, standing at the pinnacle of the world and reveling in the glory of their triumph, it felt similar to that.

The fleeting moment of euphoria that he experienced was a precious and infrequent break, an opportunity to indulge in the taste of triumph that came from his hard work.

In a daring display of bravery, he confronted a deadly predator, used his wits to outsmart it, and emerged as the triumphant victor.

The feeling of satisfaction that he experienced was beyond measure, and this was not only because he had eliminated a threat and saved the convoy.

It was also because he had proven to himself that there were very few individuals in the entire world who could stand up to him now.

His thoughts shifted towards his fallen comrade, the driver whose life had been taken away by this exact creature.

Although the victory couldn\'t bring him back, it provided a sense of retribution, restoring some semblance of balance, albeit in a small way.

With a firm grip, Erik clenched the crystal in his hand, vowing to work on honing his skills and growing stronger.

While showing a deep sense of respect, he cleaned the surface, removing any traces of brain matter, blood, and sand that were still there.

As he held the crystal in his hand, he could feel its coolness and weight, a tangible representation of the creature\'s once-great strength.

With each step, he could feel the weight of it in his pocket, as if it were a sacred talisman, reminding him of his triumphant victory.

After that, his focus shifted to the lifeless body of Galewing, fixating on the wide-open wound on its head, which resulted from his powerful punch.

The blood continued to seep out, forming a pool on the sandy ground beneath. Erik took out his flask and collected some of the creature\'s blood. The liquid, which had a dark and viscous appearance, was infused with mana.

He was brimming with anticipation. Then he grasped the flask and brought it to his lips, taking a satisfying sip. As the blood flowed down his throat, he felt a surge of energy coursing through his body. As his muscles tensed, a noticeable change occurred in his senses, sharpening them.

Erik couldn\'t help but break into a wide grin that spread across his entire face. He was aware of the fact that by consuming the blood of the creature and getting its brain crystal, he would gain a formidable new power. He was overcome with an overwhelming sense of elation that was difficult to put into words.

<SYSTEM! SPEND AS MANY DNA POINTS AS POSSIBLE BUT I WANT THIS POWER ASAP! > Erik shouted in his head. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

[THIS WOULD REQUIRE SPENDING 2000 DNA POINTS TOTAL FOR THE DNA AND THE BRAIN CRYSTAL POWER ABSORPTION. ARE YOU SURE?]

<YES! >

The process of assimilating the Galewing\'s DNA was a one-of-a-kind occurrence for Erik, setting it apart from any other experience he had ever undergone. Once the system finished the assimilation process, an overwhelming surge of mana, unparalleled in its intensity, engulfed him.

The mana, with its incredible potency and density, had such a firm presence that it felt almost tangible, as if it were physically surrounding him.

It felt as though I was partaking in a mystical ritual, where the act of drinking was akin to immersing oneself in a legendary spring, where the water possessed not only the qualities of a typical liquid but also the transformative power of a vibrant elixir of life.

The way he reacted made it seem like he had consumed a substance that contained liquid gold, a substance that was infused with a potent and almost heavenly energy.

The energy that flowed through him was so powerful that it resonated at a frequency beyond the ordinary, comparable to the crescendo of a symphony orchestra where each note was filled with such clarity and intensity that it almost overwhelmed the senses.

The sensation was both exhilarating and humbling, like a mortal being granted a fleeting glimpse into the realm of gods.

The merging of the Galewing\'s majestic and formidable essence with his own made him feel as if he was being given a part of the prowess it possessed. But what amazed him was that all of this came from its blood.

The creature\'s mana was so high and pure that it still lingered in the blood. It was incredible.

The effects of this were not only immediate but also profound. The rapid alternating between tension and relaxation in his muscles gave the impression that they were getting accustomed to a novel energy.

With a heightened sense of awareness, his senses became so acute that they reached an almost surreal level of clarity, magnifying each sight and sound to an intense degree. His body seemed to go through a process of recalibration, making adjustments to accommodate the sudden surge of power.

Erik experienced a sense of invigoration and rejuvenation, as though the accumulated effects of years of wear and tear had been erased. His cells seemed to sing in harmony, a symphony of biological perfection that left him in awe of what he had just achieved.

The sensation that washed over him was one of utter completeness, as if a puzzle that had been missing a piece had found its perfect fit, leaving him feeling more whole and satisfied than ever.

Erik stood there for a moment, immersed in this newfound sensation, filled with awe and wonder as he contemplated the astonishing complexity of his own body.

Despite this, he had more work to do. As Erik extended his hand into his pocket, he could feel his fingers wrapping around the brain crystal that he had got.

He pulled it out and then took a moment to admire it once more. The essence of the Galewing was held within this small, glimmering object. If he were to consume it, he would be able to assimilate its power and make it his own.

The pounding of his heart in his chest was not due to fear, but rather from sheer anticipation. This moment held great significance as it marked a pivotal turning point in his journey toward personal growth and strength. As if showing great reverence, he raised the crystal to his lips with a sense of ceremony.

After having swallowed it, Erik felt a surge of energy that was new to him, surpassing any previous experiences. It appeared a dam had burst inside of him, unleashing an overwhelming surge of untapped potential that flowed through his veins and permeated every aspect of his existence.

He experienced a fiery sensation, as if his senses were set ablaze, and every nerve ending tingled with an electrifying surge of newfound power.

A sense of euphoria overcame him, causing a wide grin to spread across his face. He had done it. He had slain the Galewing, claimed its power, and emerged victorious. The level of joy he experienced was impossible to put into words, a blend of triumph, relief, and an overwhelming sense of potential for the future.
