12: Chapter 12 Distortion

Afterward, under Chen Mo's recommendation, he chose a mainstream basic retinue, spending a total of 568,000 credits.

However, their shopping trip was not over yet. In addition to the basic retinue, Bai Yuanyu also needed to purchase some basic resource cards for his divine domain.

Mountains, rivers, forests, and oceans.

These items were necessities to help the divine domain complete its ecological construction and quickly ascend to the second tier. This round of purchases cost another three hundred thousand plus.

Just when Xie Wei thought the business was concluded and was preparing to send away the somewhat difficult Chen Mo, the other party acted as if he had completely changed into a different person, looking at her with a face full of smiles.

"Uh, beautiful Xie, you guys should also buy retinue cards here, right?"

As he spoke, Chen Mo took out the initial retinue card given to him by his family from his storage bracelet.

To be fair, his family treated him quite well. The quality of this card was not bad; even if it wasn't as good as Bai Yuanyu's half-elf retinue card, the difference wasn't large.

"We do, but we only buy at cost price. This card of yours..."

Xie Wei picked up the retinue card in Chen Mo's hand and looked at it for a few moments, then nodded slightly: "A fire-elemental beast species, it's quite popular, and the quality is good. I'll give you 80,000 for it!"

"Add a little more, Sis. How about 88,888? For good luck."

Chen Mo didn't actually think there was a problem with the price, but he still wanted to earn a little more.

Xie Wei rolled her eyes at Chen Mo. Now that their roles were reversed, she didn't need to be as polite as before.

However, Chen Mo's ability to bend and stretch made her look at him with new respect.

Besides, the way he called her "Sis" and "beautiful" made her feel a bit embarrassed.

"85,000, no higher. We already have a lot of stock on hand, and that requires costs too."

"Deal."

Chen Mo didn't push his luck and agreed immediately.

"Do you still have business?"

Seeing Chen Mo still staring at her, she paused the transfer she was about to make.

"Actually, I also have things to buy."

"Oh!" Xie Wei immediately became interested: "What do you want, an initial retinue card or resource cards?"

"retinue card," Chen Mo replied without hesitation.

"Fine!" Xie Wei nodded and was about to have the salesperson bring over the box containing the retinue cards, but Chen Mo interrupted her.

"No need for the trouble. What I want to buy is in the promotional section."

As he spoke, Chen Mo walked over to the shelf marked with the big characters "Special Promotion" and took out a whole stack of Blood Beast cards.

Seeing this scene, both Bai Yuanyu and Xie Wei had strange looks in their eyes.

But Chen Mo didn't mind at all and very generously took out his credit card and handed it to the salesperson nearby.

"Swipe the card, I want all of these!"

...

"Chen Mo, no... Brother Mo, can you tell me why you bought these pieces of junk that cost 8,000 credits each?"

On the way home, Bai Yuanyu, flying in mid-air, finally couldn't hold back and asked this question.

"Don't ask. You'll know in the future."

Chen Mo smiled mysteriously, then accelerated again and flew toward home.

Watching Chen Mo's gradually disappearing back, Bai Yuanyu was still confused.

He certainly knew about Blood Beast cards. Although this thing was trash itself, it was used by some special divine domains as resource cards.

For example, in Necrotic-type divine domains, such domains needed large quantities of cheap transcendent Life as consumables for summoning or cultivating the undead.

But he remembered that Chen Mo was not following the Necrotic divine path.

The Necrotic divine path required a special Spiritual-type divine domain stone as the foundation for condensing the divine domain, but the divine domain stone Chen Mo had applied for from his family was the same as his: the most basic non-attribute divine domain stone.

...

The Chen clan, inside the quiet room in Chen Mo's home.

This was something he had taken the time to convert from his study yesterday. Before condensing his divine domain, he might not have needed it, but after condensing the divine domain, a safe point for entering and exiting the divine domain had to be established.

For this reason, he had specifically rented a set of defensive magic arrays from the clan. Although it couldn't stop some true powerhouses, it gave him a bit more sense of security every time he entered or exited his divine domain.

"Welcome back. The interval for this time was 45 divine domain days, divine domain area 82 kilometers, Power Of Faith +45,000, retinue units +0."

"As expected, no Parasitic Species has completed the mutation yet."

Chen Mo glanced at the great canyon below his feet; this was the nest he had specifically prepared for the Blood Beasts.

At this moment in the canyon, Blood Beasts, skinny to the point of being nothing but bones, were all looking up at the sky, clearly having sensed Chen Mo's arrival.

Retinue: Blood Beast {Parasitic Species}

Rating: Common

Level: 5

Strength 6, Speed 2, Spirit 3, Energy Level: 22

Faith Level: True Believer

Special Status: [Mutation] {Completion 86.33%}

[Note: Under the mutation state, the various data of the Parasitic Species will continue to decline until they completely become nourishment for the virus]

[Note: After the mutation is completed, the viral primogenitor will change the host's original Life form and complete the metamorphosis.]

Looking at the information before him, Chen Mo nodded secretly.

This was the Parasitic Species with the highest mutation completion rate, and it was much faster than he had expected.

In his previous Life, without relying on external forces, wanting to cultivate a Mutated Species using [Prion X] would have required at least 2,000 divine domain days.

But in this Life, this progress was more than ten times faster. As for the reason...

Chen Mo couldn't help but look at his attribute panel, which had the perfect explanation.

[nurgles blessing] Effect: Retinue growth speed +1000%, and there is a certain chance of unknown mutations occurring.

Warning: A blessing is also a curse. Those lacking sufficient status and willpower will eventually become pawns of Chaos. Even across space and time, They are still watching you.

"Blessings and misfortunes rely on each other, but at least before the Chaos divine system discovers the Main World, I am safe. As for the future..."

At this moment, Chen Mo recalled the scene of being crushed by that terrifying existence, and he couldn't help but shiver all over.

"There is still time!"

Sighing softly, a stack of very familiar cards appeared in his hand.

Blood Beast card!

Don't forget, in addition to self-mutation, Parasitic Species can also gain additional mutation values by infecting others.

Chen Mo had completely emptied his wallet to buy these 25 Blood Beast cards; besides expanding the size of his retinue, he also wanted to give these Parasitic Species a push.

"I hope I can make it in time for tomorrow's test."

Muttering this, all 25 Blood Beast cards were released by Chen Mo.

In the blink of an eye, the Blood Beast Canyon, which was not very big to begin with, was already filled with beast shadows. Having received Chen Mo's order, the Parasitic Species pounced out like starving wolves at this moment.

Although they were already extremely weak, with Chen Mo there, these Blood Beasts that had just landed were just living targets.

"Slaughter... is also metamorphosis!" After saying this, Chen Mo disappeared within the canyon.

He had done everything he needed to do; as the Divine Lord, he just needed to wait patiently.
