Infinite Skin System: Starting as An Eldritch Knight

Chapter 184: Elite Shadow Apothecary

’Woah. Quite a few skills mutated.’

Carter checked the new Dracula and was rather please with how it turned out.

’I still have enough Terror Shards to push Dracula to Major Elite. What should I add?’

Carter continued to check the Skin Glossary. Dracula could control negative force and sound now. The last thing that it needed was blood related power.

Dracula already had Blood Manipulation but Carter felt like it could get even better.

’Not a lot of blood related abilities in the Terror Skinline... The only thing that was mildly useful and in the same thematic as Dracula is Terror Parasite.’

Terror Parasite was a Medium Elite Terror. A surprisingly weak Elite Terror with a blood relating ability.

- Parasitic Blood: You may infect the bloodstream of another being with parasites. When infected, the parasites will slowly turn all the blood of the victim into similar Terror Parasites.

Terror Parasite was horrible. If a human was to infect with this, they would slowly be replaced with parasites and die. But for Carter or any Awaken being, they could easily detect the parasite and kill it.

This ability would only be effective on a mortal.

’Oh well. Let me see if it can turn into something cool.’

’Huh? What is that skill?’

Prince of Blood was something that Carter made up. But it had become an actual skill now.

[DRACULA EQUIPPED]

Carter closed his eyes and felt the power of his new skin. Surprisingly enough, the Prince of Blood was an entire pathway toward the higher rank.

Carter knew that enlightenment was a way to exceed Champion rank. These forms enlightenment had many different variations. For now, he knew of Transcension and Primal Spiritualization.

Another way was through Divinity, which Zeneros Blackburn had.

But there was a third way. The way of the Prince of Darkness.

’This is... similar to Divinity. But instead of Faith and Belief, Prince of Blood requires... blood and dominance.’

More blood and more variations of different blood. The blood of stronger beings or unique beings. And dominance. Total obedience from his loyal vampire children that he had made.

_’Vampire... Combining with Terror Parasite, Dracula is slowly becoming its own thing. He feels like a disease. A perfect schematic match for this pandemic world.’

Carter continued to raise the power of Shadow Apothecary. Eldritch Skeleton Knight is at a good balance right now. The Terror Skins would just move him to a path closer to Dracula. Carter didn’t want that. He intended to collect more Undead Shards late for the Skeleton Knight.

As for the Shadow Apothecary, there were a few things he could do to raise its power immediately.

’Shadow Apothecary is looking for intelligence. He wants more knowledge to make more potions and conduct more experiment. Pairs him with human’s Intelligence, the five mental skills of the Invoker, and Shrine Maiden’s power is pretty good. There is also a healing aspect. But healer skins are basically non-existent in my collection right now. Let just make him stronger first.’
