Hero of Darkness

Chapter 527: The Upgrade

Kahn and the group stayed at an inn outside of Arkensan where Omega acted as the leader and Kahn only acted as a servant of the group to keep their status quo in check according to the social structure of this empire.

And at night… Kahn finally heard a loud noise in his mind during sleep.

[The System has been upgraded to version 2.0]

”Alright then 2.0, tell me whatʼs new in the software update.” said Kahn in a humorous tone.

[Because of the hostʼs breakthrough to a new rank… many functions for the system have also become available and the previous interface has been greatly improved.

Following are the newly added functions :

The host can now directly absorb the bodies of any deceased being, gain their abilities, skills and bloodlines because the Plunderer skill and Space Law acquired by the host have morphed and adapted into a new form of power.

The host no longer has a need to touch any beingʼs body or eat their cores. The system will help the host automatically absorb it and allow direct absorption of the energy from the source.

Current range : 10 Kilometers] listed the system.

”Finally!” exclaimed Kahn in joy.

Because previously, the plunderer skill only allowed him to convert energy, mana and world energy from resources such as mana cores and ores.

And with the newly unlocked function, Kahn could absorb the entire body and harvest the energy in it to raise his levels as he did with the Guardian Dragon.

But it was limited only to increasing his levels and world energy stage. It had nothing to do with gaining abilities or anything else from the corpses.

However… this new function after the system was finished with the update allowed him to bypass that restriction.

So no more touching the mauled and bleeding corpses to absorb abilities and bloodline like a creep and spend hours standing or squatting while using Ability Absorption divine ability.

All Kahn needed to do was just pull the body into his Dimensional Domain and let the divine ability do its work.

He could also control if he wanted to keep the body or completely absorb it as well.

So this was indeed a big upgrade for him. And on top of it… the range was 10 kilometers. So he could gain hundreds of abilities, and bloodlines all at once from thousands of dead bodies instead of going through them one by one.

Next, System continued with the new details.

[Following are the Dimensional Law abilities that have been upgraded :

Dimensional Domain now has a total span of 10 kilometers due to the hostʼs rank up to Saint Rank in Space Law.

Dimensional Cut now has a range of 5 kilometers. The host can target anything or any being in this range and attack or kill them using the Dimensional Cut skill.

Dimensional Shift has been greatly enhanced. Host can now transfer 3 body parts and organs inside the true dimension at the same time.

Dimensional Void can now be accessed at hostʼs will and a void crack will automatically appear in front of the host within having the need to cut through two dimensions using a weapon.

All these abilities will receive an increase in range with each of the hostʼs future level-ups and breakthrough to higher ranks] reported the system.

The next second, Kahn quickly activated Dimensional Domain and covered only his body under it while leaving the rest of the room alone.

”Waha haha ha!! Wahaahahaha!!

WAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!”

Laughed Kahn like a maniac and reveled after hearing this information.

This was simply too big of an upgrade. Previously when he became a saint, the range of these abilities increased by 5 times.

His maximum range was 1 kilometer and that too was only for Dimensional Domain before becoming a saint. Later, it increased to 5 kilometers while other dimensional abilities received some increase in their range as well.

But after the system update… the total range was doubled for all of them. And the number of organs or body parts he could transfer to the true dimension also rose by 3 times.

To top it off… he no longer needed to manually open a void crack using space force encapsulating Lucifer. Now, he could step inside them at his will.

And the cherry on the top was that all of their ranges will increase after he leveled up and made a breakthrough. This was definitely going to help him in the future because while facing an army of thousands of opponents… he could simply pull them all inside the Dimensional Domain and reduce their stats by 65%.

This way… the enemies will clearly lose the advantage of numbers and Kahn will have the upper hand in both one on one or an open battlefield.

Suddenly, Kahn heard another notification from the system.

[King of the Dead has been upgraded to Legendary Rank and renamed as Sovereign of the Dead.

The skill now has a span of 10 kilometer radius from the hostʼs location.

The host can now directly create subordinates and evolve them using Synthesis Divine Ability without needing to touch them while merging the bodies and select which body to be merged with which one despite their locations and distance between them.

The host can also directly evolve them into higher ranks as long as the requirements of specimens and resources are met instead of evolving them one by one and then merging again.

The range of Sovereign of the Dead will increase with each new breakthrough to higher ranks.] informed the system.

Stunned!

Kahn was too stunned to speak.

As if this humongous upgrade in Dimensional Law skills wasnʼt enough… now even the ability he absorbed from the Undead Lich in Bromnir Dungeon went straight from SS Rank to Legendary Rank and now unlocked additional features.

”System, what caused this upgrade?” asked Kahn in a bewildered voice.

To his query, the system replied casually as if it was no big deal.

[The hostʼs Darkness Element capacity has increased.]

”Because of what?” he asked curiously.

And the system finally revealed what caused such a major upgrade.

[The body of the darkness element Dragon.]
