Chapter 113 Another Series of Upgrades!
While cautiously moving through the Mad Ape Forest, Vincent finally had the time to focus on the system notifications he received.
There was one thing that stuck in his mind.
It was about primal energy. When he assisted in killing Zhang Chen, he received a notification that a few points of his primal energy had recovered.
At the time, he thought it was a one-time event.
But he did not expect that he would also recover primal energy after killing Xu Zheng.
"Is it possible that I can recover primal energy by killing a human?" he thought but quickly dismissed the idea. There was no way he could conduct further research on it.
He might not feel guilt about killing enemies, but he wouldn't harm humans solely for experimentation.
After some time, he finally encountered one of the inhabitants of the Mad Ape Forest.
It was a group of black-furred monkeys.
Your journey continues at empire
However, compared to regular monkeys, these creatures had long, spiky fur, fangs that were currently embedded in what seemed to be a boar corpse, and tails that resembled thorny whips.
With a quick scan, Vincent immediately learned the creatures' names and strength levels.
Fierce Monkey — Tier 1 (5★)
There were six of them—each at the peak of Tier 1.
At that moment, Mochi's childlike voice echoed in his mind.
"Your race really has a lot of variations. Your race can be short, tall, plump, and even hairy…" she said casually while nibbling on the last origin fruit she had been eating.
Vincent was once again speechless at Mochi's random comments. Yet he couldn't deny her observations, as science indeed suggested that humans had evolved from monkeys.
"But why don't you have tails?" she added indifferently.
Hearing her question, an idea popped into his mind.
"You want to know why?"
Mochi gave a simple nod.
Vincent then flashed a mischievous smile beneath his mask. Without warning, he grabbed the plump rabbit by the back of her neck and hurled her toward the group of Fierce Monkeys while saying, "Why don't you ask them yourself?"
"Waaaaah!"
Before Mochi could process what was happening, several pairs of crimson eyes locked onto her. Some of the monkeys were even drooling.
"H-Hi?"
Mochi gave a nervous smile, trying to play it cool.
Unfortunately, the monkeys responded with excited roars.
Roar!
Jolted by fear, Mochi bolted in the opposite direction, panic surging through her. She cursed Vincent in her mind, "Merciless human! Once this Great Mochi recovers her powers, I'll make you pay for this!"
Naturally, Vincent heard her thoughts and nonchalantly replied.
"Yeah? If you're truly the Great Mochi, why don't you beat them up instead of running?"
"I-I could beat them up, but I don't want to hurt your kind!"
"No need to worry. Go ahead and beat them up; I won't mind."
"This Great Mochi is merciful! I would never harm your people."
Despite being chased by the Fierce Monkeys, Mochi avoided their attacks with ease.
It was not surprising. Mochi was already at Tier 2. Although Vincent didn't have full knowledge of her origin, her rabbit features, known for agility and speed, gave her a clear advantage.
The Fierce Monkeys simply couldn't catch her.
"Stop them now, idiot master!" Mochi yelled, exasperated.
Without a word, Vincent unleashed his Dragon's Might skill, immediately immobilizing the Fierce Monkeys, paralyzing them with fear.
Once Mochi caught her breath, she shot him a sharp glare.
Vincent ignored the black rabbit's sulking and moved toward the group of Fierce Monkeys. Without hesitation, he killed two of them, filling his experience bar.
He then immediately used his experience points and upgraded his Dragon's Might to epic grade.
Do you want to upgrade Dragon's Might?
He confirmed, and moments later, the process was complete.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
You have successfully upgraded Dragon's Might (Rare) to Dragon's Fury (Epic)!
Name: Dragon's Fury
Grade: Epic
Details: This passive skill allows the user to tap into the primal power of dragons, enveloping them in a blazing aura of draconic energy.
Effect: Enemies within a 20-meter radius of the user with a sub-level higher, same or lower level are paralyzed with fear. The intensity of the fear and the length of the paralysis increase based on the user's Force and Mental attributes, respectively. The weaker the opponent's race, the stronger the effect.
Vincent was satisfied. While the skill's mechanics hadn't changed significantly, the increased radius was a notable improvement.
Next, he used 500,000 experience points to upgrade his Sterling Silver Body.
You have successfully upgraded Sterling Silver Body (Rare) to Impervious Silver Armor (Epic)!
Name: Impervious Silver Armor
Grade: Epic
Details: This passive skill creates an armor-like coating on the user's skin, imbuing them with the resilience and durability of sterling silver. This skill increases the user's physical strength by 60%, allowing them to strike with greater force and withstand more damage. The silver coating also enhances the user's speed and reflexes, as well as their resistance to magical and elemental attacks.
After a quick scan of the updates, Vincent killed another two Fierce Monkeys with a punch and moved on to upgrading more skills!
You have successfully upgraded Physical Regeneration (Rare) to Regenerative Resilience (Epic)!
Name: Regenerative Resilience
Grade: Epic

Effects:
Minor injuries - (such as bruises, cuts, and scrapes) heal within 5 minutes, and moderate injuries (such as broken bones and internal bleeding) heal within 1 hour.
Severe injuries - (such as multiple fractures or organ damage) can heal within 6 hours, provided the user is not actively taking damage.
Note: The Base Attribute Points haven't been taken into consideration.
"This is great!"
He could not help but exclaim in his mind.
He could assume based on the note that the effect should be better according to his current attributes points!
He did not stop and used the remaining experience points.
You have successfully upgraded Sixth Sense (Rare) to Combat Intuition (Epic)!
Name: Combat Intuition
Grade: Epic
Details: a passive skill that enhances the user's situational awareness and intuitive grasp of combat dynamics, enabling them to react to threats more quickly and accurately.
This enhanced perception is a result of a 60% increase in the user's sensory processing abilities, allowing them to detect and analyze subtle changes in their environment such as shifts in body language, minute sounds, and even fluctuations in temperature. This heightened awareness provides the user with a significant advantage in combat, allowing them to anticipate and respond to attacks more effectively.
