But if I got those stats and skills from Gallen, then that would mean that the Beastkin race has status screens as well, and most likely skills too. Then again, skills might be uncommon, as only Gallen has shown any sign of having a skill. Maybe the officials who are in the higher class have skills to keep them there, or it could just be prestige.
Anyways, it is too late to worry about it now, as I am approaching the destination. Using the Ballers shell again, I formed the full skeleton as I crash-landed into the ground with a resounding BOOM! Thankfully not getting flattened by the force of the landing, I de-materialized my shell and went over to the monkey corpses.
Rolling tentatively over the ground dried in blood, which surprisingly did not go away in the morning dews, I saw all of the dead Great Ape bodies, filled to the brim with massive, black and purple glowing mushrooms.
'What happened to my spores?!'
Looking on in confusion and wonder at what we're supposed to be little mushrooms, I found radiant purplish black mushrooms, emitting an evil aura. Looking at how long and thick they are, I would have felt a little self conscious if I was still in my old human body.
Anyways, without further ado, I started absorbing all of the spores. It was then that I felt a presence of something I cannot explain. It felt like an evil incarnate, like everything that is bad has ever happened to you condensed into a single presence or being, as I did not know what this was.
It felt as if it was trying to break down my mind and take control of my body. However, I would not give up this second chance. I promised myself to live this life to the fullest, and I will not get stopped by some bad monkey virus, or whatever this thing was. It felt like a one hundred kilo weight was on my mind, trying to crush it into submission.
This feeling kept persisting with every spore that I absorbed. I could not stop now, as the feeling would most likely increase, like stopping in the middle of a run, just to get tired faster later. Anyways, what felt like hearse later, I managed to remove all the spores that the mushrooms had made, and then the pain multiplied as the mushrooms turned white and disintegrated.
My structural body started spasming, the spores creating different shapes at insane speeds. While my body looked like water in a subwoofer, my mind was in excruciating pain, trying to bend the presence that is constantly attacking it to my will.
The feeling had increased so much I could not tell what was real and what my mind made up. If I had a mouth to scream, I would have screamed for miles. After what felt like hours of torturous agony, it finally slowed to a dull throb for a couple of minute, and then disappeared completely, like it was never even there.
One my mind cleared of painful fog, I felt a great difference not just in power, but appearance as well. Making eye stalks with materialized eyes to see my body, I realized my body turned pitch black, purple tattoos in the shape of a strand of fire circled around the bottom of my blob of a body.
Amazed by what happened to my body, I cannot wait to see what happened to my spores, as they were now feeling very powered up. It felt like the structure of each Alter spore was altered to become more powerful, like another evolution or a rank up of a skill. Now let's check what happened. *click*
