I Am A Legendary BOSS

Chapter 267 Endowment, Man of Steel

When William gobbled down the Blood Fruit, a burst of energy exploded in his stomach. The refreshing energy coursed through his entire body, causing him to almost moan out loud.

Luckily, William stopped himself, saving his reputation at this critical moment.

The Legendary Blood Fruit had an extraordinary effect.

[Prompt: You have consumed a Legendary Blood Fruit]

(All attributes +20]

(Upper Health Limit: +1000]

(Prompt: Your endowment ‘Advanced Toughened Skin’ has been upgraded to ‘Man of Steel’]

“What the f**k!” William couldn’t believe it. He didn’t expect his endowment upgrade to be this, that it would be directly upgraded to ‘Man of Steel’.

Gosh!

That was way too powerful!

This was simply an all-round defense bonus. Other than being unable to defend against Mental Strength attacks, plus blood control and similar skills, he could be considered a super-powerful shield.

“Awesome, this is too awesome. Even though my Health Points aren’t a lot, I’m a Legendary BOSS, after all. My Defense is so strong now, this is going to piss people off.” William was dumbfounded. His ‘Man of Steel’ was still a little inferior to ‘King Kong Body’, ‘Extraordinary Anatomy’, and ‘Deity Body’.

Nonetheless, at his current stage, this was an unimaginable godly endowment to William!

(Endowment: Man of Steel. 1 Physical Strength point = 2 Defense points. Total Defense is increased by an additional 200 points. Upper Health Limit has been increased by 2000 points.]

“Damn, with the boost of my bloodline potential, I have 1174.8 Defense points. This isn’t including the additional Defense points from my equipment. Taking that into account, my Defense points can reach 2000.” William gulped. With such powerful Defense, he didn’t even need to care about some professionals’ normal attacks.

As for the normal players?

Tsk, tsk!

Miss!

Unless they unleashed a powerful attack that could make him lose dozens or hundreds of Health points, they wouldn’t be able to deal him any damage in normal circumstances.

This wasn’t even taking into account his battle energy shield.

But more importantly, he didn’t know exactly how much the Blood Fruit could boost his bloodline potential. However, he had been a Legendary bloodline to begin with, so he guessed that there would not be a dramatic boost.

[Prompt: Your bloodline potential has been boosted. Every time you upgrade to the next level, your four-dimensional attributes will be boosted by 1.1%, as compared to 1% before. The upper limit for this will be Level 100.]

“This can not be considered as little. Even if it is a mere increase of 0.1%, it will add up and would become 110% when I reach Level 100, which is equivalent to an extra 10% of all of my attributes.” William heaved a sigh of relief. He was amazed by the effects of a Legendary Blood Fruit.

He knew that if he gave the Legendary Blood Fruit to another person, the effects could be magnified even further.

However, he was not only a Lord, but he was also a player that only had one life. He had personally obtained this Blood Fruit, so it didn’t make sense for him to just give it away!

Even if those people were his confidantes, they needed to have enough loyalty and put in enough effort for him to reward them with this stuff.

Of course, it was a must to give Burned Cinder and company a Blood Fruit. After all, they contributed a lot in this battle.

Therefore, William took out two Epic Blood Fruits and tossed it to the two people staring intently at him.

“Thank you, my lord.” Burned Cinder and Diablo laughed. They gobbled up the Blood Fruit entirely, not even pausing to spit out the core…

When he saw the scene, William froze

Just now, he recalled that he had not spat out the core too…

“It won’t grow in my stomach, right?” Prince William touched his chin and ignored the two lads. Thereafter, he found an excuse to distract Bryan away and gave Wells a Blood Fruit.

He didn’t give them Legendary Blood Fruits, as upgrading bloodline potential wasn’t very important to a Legendary NPC. The more important thing for them was to upgrade their endowment.

He had tried it out just now.

Hence, it was better to just let them consume an Epic Blood Fruit, and maybe their attributes could be boosted by 5%. It depended on their luck whether their endowment was upgraded.

As for other Blood Fruits, William was planning to give them to his other subordinates as a reward, such as Violent Dragon, Alec, Odom, Lautner, Eric, Jack, and others. Perhaps, their bloodline potential could be boosted to Legendary too.

If there were more Legendary warriors, William would also profit more from it!

Burned Cinder and the other two couldn’t tell the difference in the quality of the Blood Fruits. They just thought that it was good that they had been given one.

The three of them covered their mouth after gobbling it down, afraid that they would make noise.

The refreshing feeling of upgrading their endowment felt way better than sex by at least ten times.

Bryan peeped at Wells and the others, not daring to make a sound.

He had guessed what that fruit was, but he could only swallow his saliva.

The value of a Blood Fruit couldn’t be measured by money. In addition, William Blackleaf was a neutral Lord and had a lot of confidantes. He had a lot of uses for the Blood Fruits, and he also did not lack money!

Bryan didn’t intend to propose an unreasonable request for buying a Blood Fruit, at all.

Furthermore, he had already said that he didn’t know about the whereabouts of the Blood Fruit. If he said he wanted to buy them from William now, his lie would be exposed.

Annoying others for no reason wasn’t something that an outstanding genius would do.

Hence, Bryan pretended that he didn’t know anything. He took out some fruits from his space ring and ate them. His only wish now was to reach home as soon as possible and heal the injuries on his butt. It wasn’t feasible to go on like this, farting as he ate.

…

After William finished enjoying the Blood Fruit, he resumed the escape. There were many creatures in the Nightmare Forest chasing after him. Basically, other than magical beasts, all Devil’s Dens that were near the Dark City had to obey the Dark Lord’s orders.

Their enemy wasn’t only the Dark City, but also countless dark creatures lurking in the forest.

Most skeleton soldiers, darkness soldiers, Dark Lizards, et cetera weren’t considered as a major issue, and they couldn’t even stop William and company for a second.

However, William and the others were afraid that they would be discovered.

Hence, every 3 hours, they would dive underground and construct underground tunnels to hide their tracks.

When Blood Devil and the others returned with news of their defeat, Ottoman scolded them for an entire 30 minutes. They were even beaten up, but then they were also given medicine and were comforted for a while. Blood Devil was given more manpower and continued his pursuit.

The vampires were given carrots after sticks, and their mood was greatly elevated.

They didn’t dare to go against Ottoman’s orders, as they had been adopted by him when they were young. Although many of their comrades had died in the process of growing up, those that were outstanding were given the First Embrace, the greatest thing in the world.

That was right.

All the children that grew up in the Dark City thought that the Blood Race was the superior race, while humans were low-class creatures.

It could be said that most of the vampires in the Dark City had been taken care of by Ottoman Lossa since they were young, so their loyalty was a given.

Blood Devil and the others not only respected Ottoman, but they also saw him as a father.

Ottoman was the father of vampires, commonly known as the Demon Father!

Due to William’s underground tunnel strategy, they were able to evade most of the detection. It had been three whole days since they saw a dark creature.

Their sense of danger was gradually disappearing

William was freer now, and he started to increase his affinity with Bryan.

He didn’t even need to do anything extra.

He only needed to strike a handsome pose and constantly chat with Bryan, and he could hear prompts of their affinity increasing.

“Bry, based on what you said, your family is very powerful. Do you belong to a royal bloodline?” William pretended to be shocked, admiration evident in his eyes.

Looking at William’s face, Bryan couldn’t help but secretly laugh. “This is a well-known thing in the Red Fire Kingdom. I practically grew up in the palace. The Crown Prince is like my biological brother.

“After he ascends to the throne, as long as I can become an Epic titled expert, my family will become a noble family again!”

“That’s impressive! However, the Crown Prince might not necessarily inherit the crown. You can tell me what you really think. We are brothers, and I won’t harm you, but there are some people out there… you know what I mean!” William cast a kind glance at him as if he were doing everything for Bryan’s sake.

Bryan was a little touched, and their affinity continued to increase. However, he shook his head, displaying a smile. “I don’t think you understand the Red Fire Kingdom well. The royal family’s last name is Red Flame. But because of our cultivation method, normally, the royal family only has a single successor. Sometimes, there will be no successor at all.

“That’s why there is no need to consider the situation of a few people fighting for the throne.

“When the royal family can’t produce a successor, they will adopt a male from the Scarlet Flame family and give him the Crown Prince title.

“Our two families are on extremely good terms. Even if others hear this, they would understand what is going on.”

William nodded, pretending to be enlightened. “This might be on purpose. Kingdoms and empires have their own methods of assessing endowment.”

William had heard before that some powerful families would assess their male descendants’ endowment the moment they were born.

If the descendant’s endowment was substandard and did not meet the expectations of the elders in the family, they wouldn’t even let the child in the family. They would directly tell the child’s mother that the child was stillborn!

By doing this, it wouldn’t waste the family’s resources, and it wouldn’t downgrade the family’s bloodline potential.

If every family and every royal family all followed the ‘survival of the fittest’ principle, letting only their most outstanding male descendants continue the bloodline, along with choosing the best spouses for their descendants.

It wouldn’t even take dozens of generations.

It would only take a little over ten generations before the bloodline potential of their descendants would become extremely powerful

There wouldn’t be any weak descendants at all!

Because their genetic makeup would become perfect.

For example, the princes and princesses of the three human empires were all of Legendary and Epic bloodlines.

This wasn’t because they consumed better resources!

It was because they had been born from the ‘survival of the fittest’ principle.

Thinking of this, William suddenly understood why it was so hard for elves to breed. When an elf was still in the form of a little sperm, they already started to play by the ‘survival of the fittest’ principle. This game would go on for 10 years…

As for human empires and Kingdoms, could this result in a lack of descendants?

Actually, not quite…

After all, after ten generations, there would be more descendants.

It takes all kinds. When there are more people, there are bound to have a few exceptions of weak descendants.

Would the families kill such descendants if they were already powerful? This all depended on the mood of the elders and the leader of the family.
