Blood Warlock: Subus Partner In The Apocalypse Chapter 161
Bai Zemin together with Shangguan Bing Xue and Wu Yijun quickly set to work. Without straying too far
from each other, because while it was true that all the Wolf Spiders had been ughtered, they did not
know at what point more enemies might appear, so they began to search through the thick forage now
tinged with red that covered the forest like a carpet.
“Here is a Soul Stone!”
??
“Here’s one too.”
Not even ten seconds had passed when the two women called out from a distance.
Bai Zemin bent down just in time and picked up another Soul Stone before cing it in his palm and
looking at both stones. His eyes shed and just as he was about to ask a question under his breath,
Lilith’s beautiful and unmistakable voice sounded in his ears.
“As I told you before, all monsters have chances to generate a Soul Stone. Even the weakest and
lowest level monsters are no exception to this rule. In fact, even zombies will start generating Mana
Stones with rtive regrity when their levels reach ten or so.”
Bai Zemin nodded to himself and she continued, “You should hurry up and get that obsolete weaponry
built by you humans. That way you can bring people to search for and gather as many Soul Stones as
possible.”
“… Is something wrong?” Bai Zemin whispered in a voice that only he could hear.
“Not much,” Lilith replied calmly. “As you may have noticed, mankind’s firearms don’t affect the First
Order too much so you’d better start manufacturing weapons from the material of the evolved
monsters.”
Bai Zemin frowned tightly and after a quick thought realized that indeed, Lilith’s words were true.
Fortunately, he had already made preparations, and currently, the survivors were working on
dismantling the bodies of the mutated and evolved animals.
I will get to work on that as soon as possible. Bai Zemin secretly made a mental note.
“Besides,” Lilith interjected again. “You don’t need to worry too much about the matter of the New Age
Monsters. While it’s true that strange creatures will gradually appear, they won’t be able to reproduce
with each other until this world enters the second stage of evolution.”
“What? Second stage of evolution?” Bai Zemin’s eyes widened and he could barely contain his voice
low to avoid being overheard and potentially being considered a lunatic.
Lilith’s voice was not heard again for a few seconds until he finally heard it again.
“The mana of the world was sleeping for countless years, probably even from the first moment this
net was born. Now it’s like a newborn that learned to crawl thanks to the Soul Record… But it still
needs to learn to walk, then to run and so on and so forth. In short, the sooner you form your own
power and faction, the better it will be for you and your future.”
Bai Zemin took a deep breath and nodded without saying a word back to her. After all, second stage of
evolution or tenth stage of evolution, such things were not something for him to worry about currently.
His main focus had not changed and what he needed to do had not changed either. He just needed to
be stronger, just as he had been doing since the first day the Soul Record arrived on Earth and
awakened the sleeping mana.
The sound of footsteps behind him made him turn around slowly only to see Shangguan Bing Xue
walking in his direction with Wu Yijun beside her. Both women were carrying a pile of Soul Stones in
their arms.
“What do we do with this?” Shangguan Bing Xue looked at him before looking at the Soul Stones she
was holding with a puzzled expression.
She had already checked it out for herself in the past and indeed, Soul Stones can empower magic
spells depending on the type of stone. As long as the Soul Stone was not focused on a particr
element it could be used as an energy catalyst and increase the magical damage inflicted on the
enemy to a great extent.
Of course, this also depended a lot on whether the Soul Stone was a normal or First Order and so on.
Furthermore, if she used a normal First Order Soul Stone to cast an ice spell and used an ice-type First
Order Soul Stone, it was natural to assume that the effect would be a lot more efficient.
It was precisely due to all this that Shangguan Bing Xue knew that Soul Stones were an incredibly
valuable treasure at the moment. Therefore, she was worried about what to do with such a treasure.
After thinking for a moment, Bai Zemin decided: “Let’s just leave them here temporarily. After securing
the military armament we can bring arge number of survivors to gather and move them.”
Wu Yijun nodded and remarked, “I agree with you. Otherwise it will take us years to find all the Soul
Stones among all this thick grass.”
Shangguan Bing Xue hesitated for a moment before gentlyying the Soul Stones on the ground again.
However, she took several for herself and kept them in a small leather bag she wore tied around her
waist.
Wu Yijun did the same and Bai Zemin also kept some.
Just as he finished storing several Soul Stones, he remembered something important and told the girls
to wait a moment while he slipped through his records.
[Evolution Requirements –
[Bronze Skin (First Order Passive Skill) Level 4 —–> Level 5:
[Stamina Stats over 300 points without external support: Complete
[Soul Stone: 9/9]
[Do you wish to evolve the Bronze Skin skill to the next level?]
Bai Zemin looked at the two women beside him before finally deciding to evolve the skill. In any case,
the fact that skills could evolve wasn’t a secret; it was just that probably no one had done it yet.
Nine Unssified Soul Stones came out of his bag and floated in the air before they began to glow
under the astonished eyes of Shangguan Bing Xue and Wu Yijun.
When the evolution process finished, Bai Zemin looked at the new skill and noticed that now, instead of
+140 Stamina points, Bronze Skin level 5 gave him a total of +160 Stamina points permanently. A solid
twenty point improvement, which was equivalent to ten levels in stat points.
“That was the evolution of a skill?” Shangguan Bing Xue asked in wonder.
“Right” Bai Zemin casually responded with no intention of hiding anything before returning to surprise
the women beside him with another evolution.

[Do you wish to evolve the Health Boost skill to First Order?]
With a single thought, Soul Stones of different grades flew out of his bag and began to rotate, forming a
strange diamond that abruptly entered his body. The rune representing the Health Boost skill shed
brightly and his entire soul seemed to be purer as his body felt a lot lighter than before.
Just the evolution of a skill made Bai Zemin feel as if a great weight had been lifted off his shoulders.
That’s how incredible the Soul Record was!
