139: Strength improvement!

Hee hee hee ~

At this moment, Eveleth's consciousness sea echoed with childish giggles. Facing this sudden laughter, Eveleth felt no fear, only joy.

Watching the white light continuously gather, Eveleth could vaguely feel a certain joy in her heart—a joy that seemed to be for celebrating her impending birth.

At this point, the white light had stopped gathering, becoming internalized and starting to solidify.

The pure white light began to retract, and under Eveleth's gaze, in just a few seconds, the white light completely vanished.

What remained in its place was a creature no larger than a palm.

Though tiny, this creature had the face of an angel, giving off a delicate and adorable aura that would irresistibly draw people in and make them lose their self-awareness from the moment they first saw it.

Charm Spirit!

This was the spirit born after Eveleth fused with the blood bead!

The next second!

With the birth of the Charm Spirit, Eveleth was passively pulled out of her consciousness sea. When she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the real world.

At the same time.

The first thing that caught her eye when she opened them was the snow-white Charm Spirit appearing before her. She instinctively reached out her hand to touch it, but the Charm Spirit haughtily dodged Eveleth's touch.

"How are you?"

At this moment, Li An, standing nearby, saw Eveleth awaken and immediately asked.

Eveleth had suddenly fainted, and he had thought the fusion might fail. Who knew that after only a few minutes, Eveleth would awaken and summon her own spirit.

"Hm?"

"I, I'm fine."

Upon hearing him, Eveleth first froze for a few seconds before seemingly realizing what had happened and responding to Li An.

"That's good. Congratulations."

"You even awakened your own spirit."

Seeing that Eveleth was fine, Li An relaxed, and his gaze shifted to the Charm Spirit beside her.

This little creature, perhaps sensing Li An's aura, immediately became extremely humble when his gaze fell upon it, completely lacking the indifferent attitude it showed towards Eveleth.

It proved that the little creature's humble posture was correct.

As the creator of the spirits, even if a spirit had formed a symbiotic relationship with a creature, Li An still held absolute control over it.

In other words, no matter how far Eveleth, who had fused with the spirit, went in the future, as long as Li An willed it, she would perish along with the spirit, completely disappearing from this world.

Of course!

Li An naturally wouldn't tell Eveleth about this; it was enough for him to know it himself.

"Try to devour them."

At this moment, Li An raised his hand, pointing at several dark shadows of corpses not far away, and said to Eveleth.

The spirit had inherited his devouring characteristic, which allowed it to grant terrifying evolutionary potential to its fuser. Now, with several corpses available, it was a good time to test it out.

"Hm?"

Eveleth, having just fused with the spirit, hadn't quite adjusted, but as a co-existent with the Charm Spirit, she understood what Li An meant. Her gaze firm, she walked towards the corpses without hesitation.

Buzz ~

Upon reaching the corpses, Eveleth made no apparent movement, but the Charm Spirit beside her instantly scattered large patches of light. As these light particles fell onto the corpses, the next second, the corpses rapidly dissolved before their eyes, leaving only their clothes behind.

Then, the Charm Spirit let out a soft hum, and under Eveleth's gaze, it directly rushed into her body.

The next second, Eveleth, whose strength had been stagnant for a long time, suddenly experienced a surge in aura, and continuous thumping sounds echoed from within her body.

"She broke through!"

"She broke through just like that!!!"

At this moment, Eveleth also reacted, staring wide-eyed at the scene before her.

She felt the sudden surge of power within her body, seemingly finding it hard to believe. She had only devoured the residual energy from a few corpses, and that was enough to break through?

"There's nothing to be surprised about."

"This way, your strength should improve very quickly."

Looking at Eveleth, who hadn't yet recovered, Li An merely shook his head and said indifferently.

Screech, screech, screech ~

However, just then, as Li An was still talking to Eveleth, a strange sound suddenly echoed behind him, like an insect's cry.

The next second.

Li An turned around directly. As his gaze shifted, he instantly saw the situation behind him: several Martian Xenomorphs, who had arrived at some unknown time, were standing in the distance!

Martian Xenomorphs!

They were actually Earth's cockroaches, sent to Mars 500 years ago. After 500 years of evolution, they had become creatures with human forms and intelligence, hence the name "Martian Xenomorphs."

These Zerg cockroaches possessed physical abilities far exceeding normal humans, including strength, endurance, and agility, and had a certain degree of intelligence. Most terrifyingly, they harbored an innate hostility towards humans.

Of course!

The Martian Xenomorphs' body structure still retained some cockroach characteristics, such as their extremely hard exoskeletons, which made them very difficult to kill. They had also adapted to high temperatures and fiery environments, and could even use advanced weapons left by humans. Furthermore, they could lay eggs after being killed, which contained their genetic information—a way for the Martian Xenomorphs to attempt to clone themselves.

At this moment, with a thought from Li An, the information of these unwelcome guests appeared before him.

Originally, Li An had intended to let Eveleth get some practice, but upon seeing that these Martian Xenomorphs were all above lv.20, he decided to take action himself.

Although enemies of this level could no longer pose a threat to him, he still had a main quest to complete and couldn't forget about it just for his dealings with Eveleth.

At this moment, just as Li An was about to make his move, to his surprise, the Martian Xenomorphs moved first.

He only felt a gust of wind, followed by a hard-armored fist smashing towards his head.
