Blood Evolution System

The academy had many training rooms, and each of them had a track field, gym equipment, personalized gravity adjusting watches, and many other training equipments. Students could pay some contribution points to gain access to such rooms. The prices vary depending on the amount they would be using it.

Eric had loaned one such room for four hours. It was so Vincent could train him, his Knight, and Gale.

"Gale, keep on running until your legs give up!"

"Increase the amount of weight you are carrying on you by another 50 KG, Salvador."

"Eric, increase the gravitational force on you to five times that of Earth and try to complete ten more rounds."

Vincent gave out a few instructions to the people running in the tracks.

"Yes, sir!"

While running at the top of his speed, holding his arms high up in the air, and clutching a dumbbell weighing 300 kg in his hands, Gale gritted his teeth and forced himself to keep moving at the same speed.

Salvador was sweating from head to toe as he was not used to carrying three times his body weight while training. Even though he was not used to it, he still followed Vincent\'s words and used the watch-like technology on his wrist to increase his weight by 50 kg.

Eric was no better than the others, even though he was at a higher evolutionary stage than them. He was breathing raggedly and felt as that his lungs were on fire. Eric wanted to give up. But seeing the two people who had no intention of giving up, he too decided not to give up and follow Vincent\'s instructions.

Thus, Eric increased the amount of gravitational force pressing down on him by a few times. Instantly, his movement became sluggish, and it became even harder to take a step forward.

"What a surprise." Vincent looked at Eric, Salvador, and Gale with a look of approval. "I thought they would give up after an hour, but they managed to last for two. If they don\'t give up and complete this task, I will be able to push them one step closer to mastering the ingredients purifying process."

Vincent knew that he would see whether they were serious about learning alchemy or not if they did his training without complaint. If they do, he will walk away and turn to train some others first.

"What a bitter taste." Vincent wasn\'t training. Instead, he was lying down on the curved grassy field beside the track, looking at the three people working their butts off and chewing on a stalk of green that tasted exceptionally bitter.

As he had nothing better to do than relax in the grassy field, he decided to use the experience points he had accumulated in the tomb of Roselia to strengthen himself. Now, he had earned a lot of experience points. He had used 10000 points back in the tomb to upgrade his subspace. But even after expending such a huge amount, he still had around 48000 points left.

[Experience Points: 48610]

Vincent opened the character screen and looked at the amount of XP he needed to reach the next level. He saw that he only needed 1400 points. It was a small amount compared to what he had.

"Level up!"

[-1400 experience points.]

[You\'ve reached level 6!]

[You\'ve gained two attribute points for reaching level 6.]

"Keep on leveling up!" Vincent knew that reaching level 16 would allow him to evolve himself. And only after that would he get to increase the levels of his innate racial traits. They were already too powerful, but once their level increased, they would be able to stand up against the best supernatural powers.

[-38210 experience points!]

[You\'ve reached level 15!]

[You\'ve gained 18 attribute points for leveling up nine times.]

Now, Vincent had 20 unallocated attribute points!

"Hmm? Why can\'t I reach level 16 even though I have more than enough experience points?"

Vincent had around 10000 points. To reach the next level, he only needed 6000 points. Yet, every time he tried to do it, an error prompt would pop up in front of him.

[You do not meet the requirements to reach level 16]

"What requirements? Can you be more specific?"

[To reach the next level, you need to consume the drop of blood of a vampire royal or three liters of a noble vampire\'s blood. In addition to that, I must let you know that you\'ll also need a lot of blood and carcass belonging to a monster lord. Without them, you might lose your rationality and go berserk. Once that happens, there is a high chance the crimson one would do everything in its power to take over your body and seal your corrupted consciousness behind the nine seals.]

Some things were better to be made clear. Aaron knew that. Hence, he had instructed Blood to tell all that to Vincent once he reached a step away from entering the second evolution of the blood mace race.

Vincent chewed on the stalk of grass more harshly. Killing a monster lord was as hard as getting its blood and flesh. Completing the second requirement to reach level 16 was too hard. But the first one was even more complex. At least he knew many places where he could hunt down monster lords. But he didn\'t know where he could find a vampire novel, much less a royal. Actually, Damien was one, but Vincent didn\'t want to harm an innocent federation citizen to become powerful.

"Let\'s just distribute attribute points."

Vincent looked at his character screen. His strength stat had reached 259 points, while his stamina stat had reached 180. In truth, his permanent stats were around 100 points. His current stats were so high because of all the items on him. Anyway, even with all the items on him, only his agility was below 150 points. He added all the attributes points in his agility stat.

[-20 attribute points.]

[Your speed stat has increased to 154 points.]

[0 attribute points left.]

Vincent smiled. He was now fast enough to outrun a person who had recently become an advanced-level combatant!
