The Evolution of the Weakest Ghoul

Chapter 124: Chapter 124: Mawbeast King

”Hmm...” Ronan pondered as he looked at his status. There it was, an Upgrade Card, and it increased a trait level by five. So, did that mean it could bypass the quest and he could directly get a trait past the First Evolution?

”System, is this possible?” Ronan asked.

[Ding! Yes, Host.]

Hearing the system’s words, Ronan smiled, but it wasn’t over yet.

”What about the quest?” Ronan asked.

[Once Host uses an Upgrade Card, the quest is automatically discarded. No rewards.]

”Oh...”

Ronan nodded. It made sense, but he was not planning to leave out the reward, a unique trait evolution, meaning the Destructive Instinct could potentially become something much better.

In this camp filled with monsters, this was a massive opportunity for Ronan to take a step forward. Maybe with this trait, he might finally be able to defeat Peak Sovereign Realm beings. Plus, he would also break through to the next star by killing this beast, but...

With rewards came risks, and this was a massive risk. A King Realm beast was something he couldn’t defeat now, even with the White Bone Skin.

As for the Ghoul army, unless he was a fool and wanted to risk dying or exposing himself as an undead, he wouldn’t dare to use it.

Ronan was left with little to zero solutions to this, but the most obvious was improving his other traits and abilities.

Returning to the camp, Ronan’s mind was full of constant thoughts on what to do and how to go about it, but just then, he heard some noises as he looked around, and lo and behold, he was met with three humans fighting a King Realm beast.

Actually, only one at this point.

The other two were already unconscious, and the last one was heavily injured.

Looking at the massive amount of blood already drained from his body, Ronan knew he would lose consciousness any time soon.

To top everything off, the beast they were fighting was exactly the Mawbeast Ronan was searching for.

”Well, well, well, what are the odds...” Ronan said with a smile.

[Status]

Host: Mawbeast King

Race: Mawbeast

Realm: King • One-Star

Traits: Destructive Instinct Lv.22

A racial trait possessed by the Mawbeast King. The host’s destructive power continuously increases while fighting powerful opponents. The stronger the opponent and the greater the pressure placed upon the host, the faster its destructive power grows. The accumulated destructive force can be concentrated into the host’s attacks, allowing it to break through defenses far beyond its normal strength.

Essence: 9450/9450 (10,000 needed for next realm)

Abilities:

• Impact Force Lv.20:

The host can concentrate an immense amount of physical strength into a single point, greatly increasing the destructive force of its attacks. The accumulated power from Destructive Instinct can also be concentrated into the attack, allowing it to produce destructive force far beyond the host’s physical strength.

• Crushing Roar Lv.18:

The host releases a roar infused with overwhelming physical force, creating a powerful shockwave capable of crushing everything within range. The stronger the host’s destructive power becomes, the more powerful the shockwave becomes.

• Destructive Body Lv.23:

The host’s body possesses an innate destructive force that continuously strengthens during battle. Every movement, collision, and physical attack carries destructive power capable of damaging powerful defenses. The host’s body becomes increasingly resistant to the destructive force generated within it.

• Ruinous Charge Lv.21:

The host concentrates its destructive power throughout its body before charging toward its target at extreme speed. The destructive force released upon impact increases according to the distance traveled and the power accumulated before the charge.

• Devastating Strike Lv.25:

The host concentrates its destructive power into a tripple attack, greatly amplifying its destructive force. The greater the destructive power accumulated through Destructive Instinct, the stronger the attacks become.

”Fuck, I would have been killed...” Ronan felt a chill down his spine. The abilities were overpowered, but more importantly, he realized King Realm creatures had traits that had passed the Second Evolution.

Its abilities seemed similar to those of the common Mawbeast, only stronger. But then, that same beast was injured, and it wasn’t lightly.

Looking at one of the human wrists, he saw the number clear as day.

123

It seemed this group was in the top elite, or at least close to the top 100. No wonder only three of them went to hunt a King Realm beast. But even with that strength, here they were, with two unconscious and the last one also slowly slipping away as the battle between it and the Mawbeast King turned into a battle of attrition.

Ronan waited patiently like a predator stalking its prey.

It was not time for him to go out, especially not after seeing the terrifying stats of a King Realm beast. The only thing he could do right about now was wait until both of them were completely worn out and reap the rewards after.

He only had one choice at this point, and if he failed, he would be the one to die. So Ronan took this seriously.

Finally, after a few minutes, it was the human that lost consciousness. He had an open wound that was bleeding profusely.

”Rrrrgh!”

Seeing the humans collapse with unwillingness, the Mawbeast roared with joy. Its 12-meter hill-like body was covered with wounds from top to bottom. Some parts of its body had black patches, showing it had been poisoned.

These three just didn’t choose to attack this Mawbeast without preparation. They knew their abilities and planned for it, but they still failed to account for how strong a King Realm beast was.

And this also marked the time for Ronan to appear.

118.

”Strong...” Ronan muttered as he glanced at the wrist of the human who had lost consciousness.

White skin covered his body as his aura changed... yet, was it enough?

Impact Force.

Ronan moved as a purple light covered his wrist, then extended to his arm as his speed doubled... tripled...

The sound barrier was instantly shattered as the King Realm beast noticed something was wrong, but it couldn’t react in time. It was weakened and injured, battling with both its injuries and the poison in it.

So Ronan’s attack hit.

BOOM!!!!!

The attack was so strong that dust rose to form a dome as trees were bent to the side.
