Chapter 187: Consuming the God Stone

'Finally, it's time to become the supreme hero.'

Leo was excited because finally, he could become a Supreme hero.

'Ding,

The system detected a God Stone in the host's hand.

'Ding,

Do you want to use the God Stone?

Soon, Leo received two system notifications asking whether he wanted to use it.

'Of course, I want to use it.'

Leo nodded without any hesitation.

'Ding,

Please consume the God Stone to see what kind of benefits the host can select.

'Huh?'

Leo raised his brows when he saw the system notification and wondered, 'What is it trying to do?'

Previously, when he found the God Stone, the system directly asked him which effect he wanted to select using the God Stone.

He gave up on becoming the supreme-ranked hero to upgrade the system, and he didn't regret it; instead, he was happy about it.

Because of the system upgrade, he received more rewards from the system.

Unlike before, the system was asking him to consume the God Stone before showing him his options from the God Stone.

'Let's see.'

Leo didn't think much because he had enough trust in the system. Hence, he tossed the red-coloured God Stone into his mouth.

'Ding,

The host consumed a God Stone. Please pick one option from the following:

1) Select a level 9 talent to instantly upgrade it to the supreme class (Recommended).

2) Instantly dissolve the curse. (Not recommended).

3) Upgrade the system (Strongly recommended).

4) Remove the Beast God Mark. (Not recommended).

Soon, the system sent four options from which he must pick one.

'This is new. Is it because I upgraded the system last time?'

Looking at the four options on the holographic screen with the system's opinion beside each option, Leo guessed it was because of the system's upgrade.

'I can dissolve the curse on my own as long as I upgrade my [Seal Swallowing Ability] and since I am planning to lure the beast god follower's to attack me, there is no need to remove the Beast God Mark.'

Even if the system recommended those two options, Leo would have directly eliminated them and looked at the first and third options.

'Having a supreme class talent means becoming a supreme-ranked hero. Even though it can increase my battle prowess a lot, it has its own disadvantages.'

Even though becoming a supreme-ranked hero seemed advantageous, it had a lot of disadvantages for Leo.

'The chances of awakening a talent or skill from devouring the rank 9 beings would become pitifully low.

'Whereas if I upgrade the system, it will definitely give me a new ability similar to [Talent Swallowing Ability] or [Slave Swallowing Ability]. Moreover, the system already said that the mission and rewards would get better with each upgrade.

'Also the most important thing is I am only an inch away from becoming a supreme-ranked hero. So, there is no need to waste a precious item like the God Stone on becoming a supreme hero.'

'Therefore, I think it is better for me to select the third option.'

After comparing the pros and cons of the recommended options by the system, Leo decided to go with the system upgrade because he felt it was the best option to choose from.

'Ding,

Are you sure about your option?

The system asked one last time regarding Leo's option.

"I am 100 percent sure."

Leo didn't hesitate about it any longer and strongly nodded his head.

'At most it will take a few more days for me to become a supreme rank hero. So there is no need to worry about it.'

Leo always wanted to be a supreme hero, and he could not help but think about the last requirement he had to fulfill for the talent [Call of the Undead] to become a supreme-ranked talent.

'I just have to turn a supreme-ranked corpse into an undead. I should go out and try completing this requirement.'

Since there were many supreme-ranked beasts and monsters in the wilderness, Leo decided to start his hunt soon.

'Ding,

The system is about to undergo an upgrade. The host can't access any system abilities for the next 9 days.

'What? 9 days?'

Suddenly, the system sent an update about its upgrade, and Leo was shocked by the upgrade time.

Previously, it took only one day for the system to finish its upgrade.

Even though Leo already expected it would be longer than the previous upgrade, he didn't expect it to be 10 days.

'Ding,

Remaining time: 8 days, 23 hours, 59 minutes (Beastnet's time).

In the next second, Leo received another system notification which made him understand why the upgrade time was so long.

'So, it was Beastnet's time which means it is only 3 days in the real world.'

Leo didn't complain about the time and decided to take a rest for the day before going on the hunt from tomorrow.

Outside the den, Fury and the high-level flaming lions started sorting the things and held the funeral for their fallen brothers and sisters.

....

In the Human Territory, Wilderness of the Beastnet,

"You didn't find him yet?"

A middle-aged man asked an old enslaved human with a frown.

"Yes, master. He must be hiding somewhere."

The old enslaved person replied in a flat tone and continued, "However, there is something that the master should know."

"What is it?"

Jayden asked his old slave about it.

"The entire Evergreen Grasslands is empty with half of the Bull Dens collapsed and there were signs of fighting."

"Empty? Fighting?"

A smile appeared on Jayden's face, and he asked, "Did you see any signs of fire attacks?"

"Yes, Master."

"Haha…it looks like the Flaming Lion King has already found his son and is starting to eliminate the other races."

For some reason, Jayden was excited about it and ordered the old enslaved person, "I have already stayed in this world for a week. So, I have to leave this world for now."

"However, I will come back in a month, I don't know what you do, capture the Spider Queen and Eagle King. Before that Flaming Lion King kills them, I have to add them to our family."

Jayden was sure that the Flaming Lion King would not go all out to kill the other two bestial rulers yet; however, after learning that he erased the Terra Bulls, Jayden rushed his plans.

"Yes, Master."

The old man flatly replied with a bow.

"Good. I will leave now."

Soon, he opened the portal and thought, 'Once I take control of this world, that human will also join the family along with the Flaming Lion King.'

When he learned about Leo's actions in the Spider Queen's territory from his slave, Jayden wanted to turn Leo into a slave and add him to his family of slaves.

However, he didn't order his slave to look for Leo because he could guess that Leo would be under the protection of the Flaming Lion King.

Nevertheless, Jayden had his own plans for the Flaming Lion King and as long as his plans succeed, not only the Flaming Lion King, even Leo would be turned into a slave.

That's why he didn't order his slaves to waste their time searching for Leo.

"Little Bear, stay here and increase your strength."

Before entering the portal, Jayden left his level 1 supreme-ranked enslaved beast in the Beastnet.
