"Sea People?"
Han Sen took the coffee handed to him by his clone, intending to take a sip.
Hearing that name, his hand movements paused slightly, and a glint flashed in his deep eyes.
This race name sounded a bit unfamiliar, but if their notorious leader was mentioned, it would truly be a household name.
It was none other than the strongest "King-level" Monster from the early part of the original anime, the overlord of the deep sea—
Deep Sea King!
Beating up "Puri-Puri Prisoner" and overwhelming early-stage Genos, this guy's performance and oppressive presence were no less than that of a Dragon-level Monster.
Han Sen himself wasn't particularly interested in the Deep Sea King, but he was very interested in the Sea People it ruled!
Over the past three months, the scattered shrimp soldiers and crab generals of the Sea People had also been a part of Han Sen's source point supply chain.
The vastness of the ocean far exceeded that of the land, and the types and numbers of Monsters it nurtured were naturally countless.
It was just a pity that most of these 'sea products' were scattered in various corners of the ocean. Han Sen's clones' hunting expeditions were not very efficient, mostly bringing back Wolf-level and Tiger-level small fry that hadn't amounted to much, and they had never managed to reach their core population.
He hadn't expected to receive such good news, like a stock market surge, so soon after arriving in J City.
As his thoughts reached this point, Han Sen and his clone exchanged a look, as if they had discovered something, and couldn't help but look at each other.
"So… King's special physique can even indirectly pinpoint the coordinates of large outdoor Monster-spawning locations deep in the sea?"
"The innate Monster-attracting Holy Body is truly terrifying!"
(King, who had already actively started his daily training: Achoo—! Damn it, what dirty thing is always staring at me!!)
Convex (｀ △ ´ ＋ ）
Without hesitation, Han Sen attributed the discovery of the Sea People's main base to King, drained the coffee in his cup, and said with full vigor: "Alright, you continue to act according to the plan."
"As for the Sea People, I'll personally pay them a visit after I finish what I'm doing."
"Understood, Boss."
Han Sen's clone grinned, his arm suddenly wriggling like a living thing, its surface stained with a pure inky black.
Then it swelled and deformed, and with a "poof," a bulging large bag was spit out from the mutated arm.
"Then I'll withdraw first!"
Before he finished speaking, the clone once again transformed into a swiftly moving, inconspicuous black shadow, silently disappearing.
Green light flickered in Han Sen's eyes. The large, still slightly pulsating bag on the balcony was enveloped by Psychokinesis and landed in his hand. Tearing open the bag, a full bag of Monster Cells immediately came into view.
Calling up the system panel and glancing at his source point balance, Han Sen raised an eyebrow, a smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: "Counting today's rich woman's reward, my source points are already close to 300,000?"
"In that case, let's have some appetizers before lunch."
… …
… …
[Source Points: 271039]
As thousands of Monster Cells were instantly refined, Han Sen's source point account balance on his panel once again surged.
The current amount was already sufficient to fully upgrade an SSR-level ability directly from Lv9 to Lv10.
Considering that the movement from this ability upgrade might be quite significant, it naturally couldn't be done in the hotel.
So Han Sen changed into a slim-fit tracksuit convenient for movement and quietly left alone.
Of course, before leaving, he didn't forget to leave two thick stacks of ten-thousand-yuan bills on each side of the nightstands by the messy king-sized bed in the presidential suite as a 'nutrition fee'.
After all, they had worked hard for most of the night, so it was only right for them to eat well and replenish their bodies.
At full speed, Han Sen's figure cut a long, white wake across the vast expanse of the ocean, quickly arriving at a remote, desolate island tens of kilometers off the coastline.
Ever since he had replicated the SSR-level ability Swift Wind, he had initially grasped the ability to levitate and fly.
Now, the use of wind power was becoming increasingly proficient, and combined with the max-level SR-level Psychokinesis, mere supersonic flight was already effortless for him, easy and unrestrained.
The landing spot Han Sen chose was a small, desolate island. The island area wasn't large; he could see across it at a glance.
Aside from tenacious moss and algae, there was hardly any organized vegetation system.
The only advantage was that it was far from human habitation, absolutely undisturbed, and very suitable for his upcoming big move.
With his feet on the solid ground of the desolate island, Han Sen immediately called up the system panel.
As he concentrated his thoughts, the numbers in his source point account rapidly decreased like a floodgate opening!
"System, add points for me!!"
"Scorching Heat Bullet, upgrade!"
[Consume Source Points × 256000, Scorching Heat Bullet (SSR) level increased! LAX)!]
[Ding! Replicated ability Scorching Heat Bullet (SSR) has reached max level, integrated into the main body, and released ability slot usage!]
[Current ability slots occupied: 10/20.]
[Ding! Detected Overgrowth Poochy's full system abilities are maxed out! Special reward of 100% proficiency, breaking current limits! SSR -> SSR+!]
[Ding! New function 'Proficiency System' has been unlocked!]
[Ding! New function 'Ability Fusion' has been unlocked!]
['Proficiency System': Max-level inherent abilities can increase proficiency. Once proficiency reaches 100%, they can surpass their limits, and ability effects will be greatly enhanced, for example—SSR -> SSR+.]
['Ability Fusion': Multiple transcendent abilities can attempt compatibility fusion. Successful fusion will greatly strengthen the original ability effects and have a certain probability of increasing the rarity quality of the new ability after fusion!]
[Ding! Current inherent ability proficiency has been updated, please check in time.]
A series of dense system prompts sounded in his mind. Han Sen briefly scanned the descriptions of the newly unlocked functions, and then his entire being was swept away by a sudden surge of terrifying energy within his body!
This energy surge was far more intense than any previous upgrade, so much so that he almost failed to suppress his human form transformation!
At the same time, the previously damp ground of this barren island beneath his feet completely dried out in an instant. The moss, algae, and other minuscule vegetation covering it rapidly charred and carbonized under unimaginable high temperatures, flaking off into ash!
Even the seawater around the desolate island evaporated huge amounts of thick white steam at a visible speed. The nearshore seawater actually gurgled and boiled, forming a death zone under high-temperature blockade!!
Large schools of passing fish didn't even have a chance to react before they were directly boiled, their eyes rolling back, dying on the spot by the suddenly boiling currents!
