Global Lords: My Species Can Mutate

Chapter 594: Chapter 588: Mutation Upgraded Again

”Look, that Tier Ten space gate is starting to collapse!”

At the boundary of the realm, an exclamation erupted from the crowd.

A group of Tier Ten lords, who were surrounding and attacking the Lord Demons outside, quickly turned their attention to the depths of the demon invasion and soon noticed the anomaly with the space gate.

Among the several Tier Ten space gates, one suddenly began to rapidly collapse, and the surrounding space quaked violently.

”It’s really collapsing!”

”Could someone have successfully destroyed the space core?”

”That was so fast?”

The lords who stayed outside were generally of weaker strength, unwilling to risk entering easily.

So their understanding of the subordinate space was only based on the snippets they heard from the lords who came out from inside.

Seeing the space gate now, they were naturally shocked.

As their exclamations filled the air, the space gate swiftly collapsed and contracted, with shadows darting out from it, escaping the space that was about to be destroyed.

Lin You, being at the center of the space, was slightly slower.

But he also dashed out of the space gate at the last moment, arriving outside.

The next second.

With a thunderous crash.

The space gate instantly turned into nothingness, disappearing into the Chaos Void.

The Tier Ten lords waiting outside hurriedly rushed up, inquiring about the subordinate space and the mission.

When they learned that the final target of the mission was actually a terrifying monster close to Tier Eleven, the lords from various realms were in an uproar, exclamations rising everywhere.

”A demon close to Tier Eleven, that’s an exaggerated difficulty for a mission!”

”What? Dozens of kings died!?”

”The monster was only killed after everyone else had fled?”

”Hiss! So that means it was done by the few who stayed?”

”A few people took down a Tier Eleven demon??”

When Lin You slew the Chaos Primordial Beast, there was no one else present, so many lords speculated that it was done by the remaining old kings together.

However, they hadn’t noticed.

While they were fervently discussing, an old king in the corner was filled with lingering fear, his eyes full of astonishment.

He was one of the last few people the lords mentioned who left.

Unlike the others.

He was very clear about what happened deep within the space.

It wasn’t a group of people that took down the monster, but one person alone!

Thinking of this, the image of the man, engulfed in blood-red light, leading a Plant Army to single-handedly fight the Chaos Primordial Beast, flashed in his mind before he escaped.

Although he didn’t see the final result.

But if he had to say who killed the Chaos Primordial Beast, it was without a doubt that person!

A Tier Ten lord, who could unleash power comparable to Tier Eleven, if he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn’t have dared to believe it was true.

At the same time, he was immensely relieved.

Thankfully, he hadn’t provoked such a creature; otherwise, even with nine Divine Fragments, he might not have escaped unscathed.

”Forget it, better not get involved in this matter.”

The old king shook his head silently, giving up the idea of publicly spreading this story.

After all, it brought him no benefit, not worth the risk of offending that creature for reckless gossip.

Taking one last glance at the vanished space gate, he didn’t linger and disappeared from the spot in an instant teleportation.

Shortly after he left.

The heavily injured Lin You also withdrew from the crowd, taking his species to a secluded corner to heal and organize the spoils of this venture.

He had to admit, the gains this time were truly astonishing.

It could even be described as the greatest harvest since he became a lord.

Not only did he acquire 30,000 rule fragments, but he also obtained the corpse of the Chaos Primordial Beast formed by the Ten Great Primordial Forces.

However, what excited him the most were the eight Divine Fragments, along with the Chaos Treasure rewarded for completing the mission.

Excluding the one required for upgrading to Tier Eleven, he still had a full seven Divine Fragments left.

This was undeniably an unimaginably staggering fortune.

If word got out, it would certainly cause an uproar among the Tier Ten lords.

As for the Chaos Treasure, its value far exceeded that of the Divine Fragments, undoubtedly a coveted treasure among countless high-tier lords.

Previously, he was too preoccupied with escaping the space to examine thoroughly.

Now that he had safely escaped, Lin You didn’t hesitate any longer. After confirming that there was no one around, he eagerly and nervously opened his personal space.

Why nervous?

Because he hadn’t forgotten the last time the Chaos Treasure was devoured by the Origin Space.

Having gone through so much to acquire another one, he naturally hoped to avoid a repeat of that incident.

Even though he knew that even if it happened, it would benefit him greatly, he still wished for a treasure that could directly enhance his strength, making his efforts worthwhile.

In the past, he wouldn’t have dared to act so impulsively.

But now it was different.

He only had more than half a year left; if he didn’t do everything to enhance his power, he would face destruction.

If death awaited him sooner or later, he might as well take a gamble to find a chance at survival.

He couldn’t afford to worry anymore.

With that thought, he calmed his mind and began searching within the Origin Space.

When he saw an object shrouded in a gray aura in the corner, he let out a sigh of relief and carefully took it out.

Soon after.

A golden scroll appeared in his hand.

A scroll?

Lin You looked suspiciously at the scroll in front of him, which had a golden gilt paper texture and was slowly rotating in the air.

He only felt a faint aura of chaos emanating from it, but it had no effect on him whatsoever.

However, Lin You was not in the mood to care about these things.

When he saw the pattern engraved on the side of the scroll, his spirit suddenly shook, and his expression became uncertain.

This pattern... he had seen it before!

It was exactly the same as the Skill Upgrade Scroll he had obtained before in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms!

Moreover, the craftsmanship was even more exquisite, the patterns more complex, and it even faintly exuded an aura that made his heart palpitate.

”Gulp...”

Lin You couldn’t help but swallow nervously as he examined the scroll’s information, not noticing that his arm was already trembling slightly.

Then, an information interface popped up.

[Name: Skill Upgrade Scroll]

[Grade: Divine Level]

[Introduction: A top-level secret treasure born from chaos, possessing the power to change the rules of all things in the world. It can forcibly upgrade specified Territory or Species Skills, ignoring all upgrade limitations.]

...

...

!!!

After a moment of silence, Lin You’s eyes widened sharply.

Skill Upgrade Scroll!

It really was a Skill Upgrade Scroll!

And not just any scroll, but one that could disregard all limitations and specify upgrades!

Even for someone as mentally resolute as Lin You, his breathing gradually became overwhelmingly rapid, and the arm holding the scroll trembled violently.

He had inquired about it before.

The Skill Upgrade Scrolls obtained in the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Realms could only upgrade the same skill once at most.

He thought his mutated ability had reached its peak, with no possibility of further strengthening.

Unexpectedly.

Within the Chaos Secret Treasures, there existed such a supreme treasure.

Directly breaking the rule limitations and forcibly enhancing skill levels.

Now he finally understood why people were so eager for Chaos Secret Treasures.

Merely being unaffected by the rules was enough to drive countless people insane.

”Let’s go, back to the territory first.”

Lin You took a deep breath and spoke to Lingxi Void Nether, who was in charge of security around him.

Almost a day had passed since the demon invasion, and even if he entered another Tier Ten Sub-Space, he probably wouldn’t make it in time to slay the Chaos Primordial Beast.

Moreover, he was now seriously injured, with most of his species lost, making it impossible to battle in the short term.

Adding to the fact that he carried a precious treasure, he dared not wander around recklessly.

He understood the principle of not being greedy beyond one’s capability.

Without hesitation, he instantly teleported from the spot, reappearing hundreds of kilometers away at the main border city.

Then, through the main city’s Teleportation Array, he returned to the Duchy.

As soon as he returned to the territory, he hurriedly took the newly acquired scroll to the World Tree, filled with anticipation.

Mutation was his earliest acquired ability, accompanying him from the Newbie Stage to now, laying the foundation for his rise.

It can be said.

If not for this ability, there would be no Lin You today, nor the current Saint Protection Duchy.

So this precious scroll would undoubtedly be used to enhance this ability, without any hesitation needed.

What would the mutated ability look like after a second upgrade?

Lin You was full of expectations, holding his breath as he slowly opened the scroll in his hands.

[Would you like to use the ”Skill Upgrade Scroll (Divine Level)”?]

”Use it!”

[Please select the Territory Skill or Species Skill to upgrade.]

”Upgrade Double Mutation!”

With Lin You’s two responses, the scroll in his hand immediately burst into a dazzling golden radiance, enveloping him and the World Tree.

The spectacular scene astonished the residents inside and outside Yellow Sand City, prompting them to stop and look towards the Imperial Palace.

Even Wei Gang, who was patrolling the city, brought a squad of guards to maintain order around the area.

[Congratulations, the skill ”Double Mutation” was successfully upgraded to ”Multiple Mutation.” For details, please check the personal skills interface yourself.]

As the light dissipated, a prompt echoed in Lin You’s mind, jolting his spirit.

He immediately opened his personal interface to check and found that the name of the mutation skill had indeed changed.

[Multiple Mutation (Active): Consumes resources to cause summoned units to mutate, evolving into a randomly higher potential summoning unit. You may specify retaining one original skill and one attribute, with a very low chance of causing the retained skill to mutate.]

Huh?

That’s it?

Looking at the skill introduction in front of him, Lin You was bewildered.

This seemed no different from the previous Double Mutation.

Could there have been an error in the upgrade?

In his imagination.

After the upgrade, the mutation ability should at least be able to retain two skills and attributes, or greatly increase the probability of skill mutation, or even add some extra effects.

But unexpectedly, apart from the name, it seemed there was no change, leaving him somewhat disappointed.

Wait a moment!

Suddenly, Lin You noticed something was amiss.

His gaze fell on the middle of the skill introduction, and his pupils gradually dilated.
