I am the Clone of a Death Row Inmate

Chapter 100: Chapter 100: Target: Gravity Dust Sand Skill

After learning about Flying Skills, Su Ze asked, ”So what’s the second option?”

Liou Wenxin replied, ”The second option, of course, is to shore up your so-called weaknesses, but we have to do it in a way that’s most suitable for you.

”You don’t need to worry about Spiritual Power for now. Even when you reach the Cocoon Stage, you’ll rarely encounter Evolvers who specialize in spiritual attacks. Those types of Evolvers need a large number of spiritual-enhancement skills to build a foundation early on. They often start out as research-type Evolvers and transition later. They won’t take shape and have basic combat abilities until at least the Butterfly Stage.

”As for Evolvers who excel at ranged attacks, it’s not practical for you to get a dedicated ranged attack skill just to deal with them. It wouldn’t synergize with your other skills, so there’s no need.

”I know of a skill that’s perfect for you. It would give you a way to counter ranged Evolvers and also significantly boost your close-combat abilities. The only problem is that this skill is very hard to obtain because the extract that carries it is extremely rare. Whether you can get it or not will depend on your luck.”

Su Ze’s interest was piqued. He asked, ”What skill is it?”

Liou Wenxin said, ”It comes from a Tier 3 S-Class beast that lives in the deepest parts of the earth. It evolved from a type of insect called the Demon Worm. The beast is called the ’Gravity Demon’, and it possesses a skill named ’Gravity Dust Sand’.”

Su Ze immediately took out his phone and searched for ”Gravity Dust Sand”. The relevant information quickly appeared.

Gravity Dust Sand: Transform evolution power into ”Gravity Dust Sand” and scatter it around yourself. You can control the gravity within the area covered by the Gravity Dust Sand. You can also condense all the Gravity Dust Sand into a Gravity Chain to pull distant targets toward you.

’Isn’t this skill... practically tailor-made for me?’

Su Ze’s heart pounded as he read. Just as Liou Wenxin had said, this skill was perfect for him. First, the Gravity Chain effect would allow him to directly pull distant enemies in for a beating, which was a hard counter to ranged Evolvers. Second, the skill also provided small-area Gravity Control around him, which would enhance both his control and his damage output.

However, Su Ze also found information online about the Tier 3 S-Class Gravity Demon and realized just how hard this beast was to find.

It lived thousands of meters underground and was extremely rare.

No normal person would venture that deep into the earth. So, to get this beast’s extract, you would have to intentionally hunt for it underground.

This would require a high-level Earth Escape Skill, or you wouldn’t be able to go that deep. You’d also need immense strength, otherwise, you couldn’t defeat the Gravity Demon even if you found it.

Su Ze immediately thought of Mr. Ya. He didn’t know if Mr. Ya could burrow that deep, but even if he could, with their current strength, neither he nor Mr. Ya were a match for a Tier 3 S-Class beast.

Liou Wenxin had only told Su Ze about this skill so he could keep an eye out and try his luck, but Su Ze had already made up his mind. He had to get this skill!

’Once I reach the Cocoon Stage and team up with Mr. Ya, we might have a chance...’ Su Ze was already starting to plan. After all, he and Mr. Ya had already punched above their weight to poison and kill a Tier 2 S+-Class Mutated Giant Crocodile.

Liou Wenxin’s two suggestions had essentially pointed out his next two skill choices for him.

Su Ze had already decided: for his fourth extract in the Pupa Stage, he would absorb a Flying Skill.

Once he reached the Cocoon Stage, he would find a way to get his hands on the Gravity Demon Extract.

After grocery shopping with Liou Wenxin and returning home, Su Ze immediately went back to his room and called Xu Sheng from Evolutionary Technology.

Xu Sheng had since been transferred to the Dongli Kingdom, where he was serving as a regional manager for one of its provinces. When Su Ze made a name for himself in the Adjudication Battle a while back, the guy had even called specifically to congratulate him.

”Mr. Xu, I’d like to buy an extract with a Flying Skill. Do you have any good ones to recommend?”

”Whoa, Mr. Su, please don’t call me that, I don’t deserve it. You can just call me Mr. Xu, or even Xu is fine... What tier of extract are you looking for, Mr. Su?”

”S-Class, of course.”

”Tier 3 S-Class, with a Flying Skill... Have you checked our company’s official website? Did anything catch your eye?”

”I haven’t. We’ve known each other for so long, if I need something, I’m definitely going to come to you directly. It’s you I trust, not Evolutionary Technology.”

If Su Ze bought through the Evolutionary Technology website, Xu Sheng would get a commission, but it definitely wouldn’t be as high as the one he’d get from a direct sale. Su Ze was doing him a good turn.

”Heh heh, thank you for your trust, Mr. Su. You really came to the right person this time. I happen to have a Tier 3 S-Class extract that just came in. It’s an absolutely top-grade item, guaranteed to meet your requirements. I haven’t even had a chance to list it on the official website yet. If you like it, it’s all yours.”

After hanging up, Xu Sheng sent over the information for the Tier 3 S-Class extract.

[Black-bellied Flood Dragon Extract]

Tier: Tier 3 S-Class

Obtainable Skills: Celestial Sea Wings, Beak Heart Strike, Dragon Phoenix Harmony

Price: 350,000 points

Tier 3 S-Class extracts were already considered high-level Evolution Items and could only be traded with points.

350,000 points was equivalent to 3.5 billion Lin coins.

Su Ze first went to ask Liou Wenxin, who confirmed that the ”Celestial Sea Wings” skill from the Black-bellied Flood Dragon was indeed one of the top-tier Flying Skills among Tier 3 skills.

The skill was considered top-tier not because of how fast it allowed one to fly, but because in addition to flying, it also allowed one to swim. It granted the Evolver superb underwater mobility.

The Black-bellied Flood Dragon was a beast that evolved from the Black-bellied Snake Pelican. Before evolving, this bird was known as a creature of ”sea, land, and air.” It could not only fly and run, but also swim, possessing excellent underwater hunting abilities.

The evolved Black-bellied Flood Dragon further enhanced these abilities, becoming a true tri-phibious animal.

The price Xu Sheng offered for this extract was reasonable. It wasn’t cheap, but it wasn’t expensive either.

But Su Ze was definitely going to haggle.

Su Ze: ”Mr. Xu, my friend, considering our relationship, what price can you give me for this extract?”

Xu Sheng: ”You’re a platinum member of our company, so you get a 10% discount. That comes to 315,000 points.”

Su Ze: ”That’s the company’s discount. What about you?”

Xu Sheng: ”Well... In that case, I’ll take the liberty of rounding it down for you. 310,000 points...”

Su Ze: ”So our relationship is only worth five thousand points?”

Xu Sheng: ”...”

In the end, Su Ze bought the extract for 300,000 points.

”Mr. Xu, tomorrow is New Year’s. Could you hurry it up a bit and have it delivered this afternoon? Just send it to Dongli University.”

After ending the chat with Xu Sheng, Su Ze smiled. He could tell that this extract most likely wouldn’t be traded through Evolutionary Technology. Xu Sheng was making a private, off-the-books sale to earn some extra cash on the side.

But how much Xu Sheng earned was none of Su Ze’s business. All that mattered was that he got a good price.
