Virus King - Chapter 74
Chapter 74: Bio-Mutant Profession Transfer Scroll! Faceless Skin!
TL: Yang
[Heir to the Five-Strike Lightning Whip: @Bai, my knees and… are forever at your service!]
[Yezi: Gross! That’s my line, @Bai! Boss, when will you come to “whip” me? I’m in Rong City, not too far from Jiangcheng!]
[Overlord: This is terrifying! What kind of skill lets you regenerate instantly?!]
[Crow: Are all the bosses in these secret realm dungeons this strong? This is only an 8th-level boss, and it’s so overpowered! Based on our current stats, even reaching level ten won’t be enough to handle that thing!]
[I’m Really Not a Sword Immortal: People really are different. We probably need to reach level ten and complete our profession transfer before we have a chance against such a boss!]
[True False Illusion: If all the monsters in the secret realm dungeons are this tough, then let’s call it a day and go back to bed until we’ve all changed professions!]
[Overlord: This is a nightmare-level dungeon. I just checked, and there are four difficulty levels for secret realms: normal, hard, nightmare, and hell. We’re simply not ready for this level yet!]
[Crow: This makes no sense! There can’t be such a big gap between SS and SSS talents, right? Damn it, I can barely handle ten zombies at once! How is the White Emperor so powerful?!]
[Meng Meng: @Crow, you’re overthinking it. Even some with SSS talent can’t beat two zombies. It’s more likely that our group leader here is just exceptionally strong!]
[Group’s Only Trash: Caught you, Meng!]
[Yezi: @Group’s Only Trash, hey big spender, lend me some coins, please!]
[…]
Clearly, none of them minded paying the one copper coin it cost to watch.
This time, Chen Bai’s recorded video drew the group’s attention almost immediately. Compared to other Evolvers, the group had a deeper understanding of Chen Bai’s strength.
Yet at that moment, Chen Bai had no time to bother with them.
In fact, he had expected this.
All his attention was focused on the items collected in his backpack!
The rewards from being the first to clear a secret realm dungeon were unimaginable!
Leaving aside the hundred coins in this dungeon, a terrifying number of coins for any Evolver at this stage.
But in both his past life and present, Chen Bai never cared much about coins.
Rather than this currency, which would surely devalue over time, the items dropped by the boss were far more precious.
Indeed, even the very first item stunned him.
It was a scroll.
At a glance, it looked similar to the dual-profession transfer scroll that Redo had shown.
In fact, it was quite similar, as this scroll was also related to profession changing!
[Bio-Mutant Profession Transfer Scroll (A-Rank)]
[Unique]
[An evil profession that enhances itself by absorbing other life forms, stimulating one’s cells through unique methods. It provides immense strength and regenerative power! However, excessive absorption may cause genetic chain collapse with unknown consequences.]
[Profession Transfer Requirements: Evolver Level 10! Constitution > 15!]
A profession transfer scroll!
And an A-Rank profession transfer scroll at that!
Moreover, it was unique, just like an S-Rank scroll!
In the previous life, after the second-generation Evolvers began to grow and advance, such a scroll could easily fetch tens of thousands of coins!
Of course, it couldn’t quite match Redo’s “Thunder Strider” profession transfer scroll.
But then again, the Bio-Mutant profession was clearly on a different level from Thunder Strider.
Thunder Strider wielded the terrifying power of lightning, which naturally placed it several tiers above most other professions.
Even among S-Rank professions, few could rival Thunder Strider.
At the time, his own Demon Hunter profession probably couldn’t even match up.
The value and significance were entirely different.
Redo’s price of a million coins, plus an S-Rank voucher, wasn’t overpriced!
Of course, even if Chen Bai put this scroll up for auction right now, no one could afford it.
But Chen Bai wouldn’t consider switching to an A-Rank profession.
Even if this profession might have a chance in the future to undergo second and third upgrades that could potentially defy fate, Chen Bai had no interest in betting on it.
He tossed the scroll into his backpack and continued examining the loot, picking up a palm-sized piece of flesh that had dropped.
[Gene Essence (C-Rank)]
[Item – Potion]
[The gene essence left by a perfect genetic creature, containing unimaginable power. Consuming it will provide a significant, permanent boost to constitution! Each Evolver may only consume one.]
[Permanent Increase: Strength +2, Constitution +6, Agility +3]
A great find!
This was the real deal.
Items that permanently boosted stats were true treasures, and those that did so without any side effects were even more priceless!
This essence offered a total of eleven attribute points. While that wasn’t much to Chen Bai, for ordinary Evolvers, this represented a stat boost equivalent to five levels’ worth of free attribute points before a profession transfer!
In other words, it could instantly transform an average Evolver into a force of destruction among low-level zombies!
Naturally, Chen Bai wasn’t the type to save such an item for others. He immediately downed it.
A warm current spread from his stomach, swiftly flowing through his body with remarkable speed.
It felt so comfortable that Chen Bai nearly let out a sigh of pleasure!
However, as a drop from a nightmare-level dungeon, this was clearly not all.
Chen Bai’s gaze returned to his backpack.
The final item was a piece of equipment.
Normally, Chen Bai had little interest in gear unless it was above S-Rank or had growth potential. Otherwise, it held little significance for him.
But this particular item was clearly different.
[Faceless Skin (D-Rank)]
[Armor – Special]
[Description: A uniquely crafted skin blended with human genetic material, providing excellent defense, a refreshing, breathable fit, and tension-free comfort. Also helps alleviate muscle and skin looseness!]
[Agility +10, Constitution +10, Defense +10]
[Body Sculpting: Prolonged wear will help your constitution present in an optimal shape! Different effects are bound to male and female wearers!]
[Dynamic Skin: Once equipped, allows wearer to alter the color and shape of any part of the skin at will!]
[Requirement: Evolver ≥ Level 5]
[P.S.: This is your second skin. For men, any “exceptional endowments” might cause some discomfort in certain areas. For women, however, this could be their best friend…]
Chen Bai’s eyelid twitched.
Why would a boss like the Bio-Mutant drop such a borderline ridiculous piece of gear?!
It could change colors?
And shapes?!
That would mean it could create any sort of look—white silk, bright silk, nude silk, pink, red, black, blue, even rainbow…
Fishnets, alphabet patterns, bodysuits, suspenders, full-body suits, lace—all possible with this equipment alone!
…
