Chosen Evolution: I can load the protagonist template

Chapter 551 I'm sorry! I'll never drink random things again!
"yue!"

Cheng Tian frowned, tilted his head, and a clump of semi-liquid black mud gushed from his mouth, turning his entire body into a mask of pain.

The path dependency caused by the Orochi's rampant blood-draining in the previous dungeon led to Cheng Tian's minor mishap.

In the current instance, if we were to choose the unit that is least able to absorb life, the Hero King, who is resurrected by the Holy Grail Black Mud, would be ranked first. From this, we can deduce that the Priestess Mapo is the second.

These two creatures, one entirely composed of flesh and the other of vital heart, are entirely made of cursed black mud filled with the evils of this world. It can be said that beneath their skin lies black mud, with not a trace of normal blood flowing through them.

For 99% of the beings in this world, the curse carried by the Holy Grail Mud is extremely deadly.

Ordinary people would die if they came into contact with it. Even heroic spirits with low resistance to magic would be corrupted or assimilated into puppet units controlled by the black mud. Under normal circumstances, even vampires who can make the most of the blood of all living beings would be affected the moment the black mud entered their mouths... But this vampire was someone named Cheng.

Cheng Tian's body has an extremely high resistance to substances that conceal "evil of this world." Just a few days ago, on the King of Fighters stage, he even used the Black Pearl, which was filled with negative human emotions, as a battery for Iron Man in his chest.
The toxicity in this black mud was negligible and had no effect on Cheng Tian whatsoever.

But that doesn't mean Cheng Tian is willing to suck blood from this black mud, which is probably tainted with some kind of curse...

Well, this black mud does indeed contain some of the blood of the Hero King, who is a Black Mud Servant, but to absorb it, one must actively separate the impurities from the blood.

This process is similar to putting wet sand in a sieve and then sucking out the moisture through the sieve; it requires certain skills and techniques.

Obviously, this couldn't be done during the precious time stop, so Cheng Tian only took one sip and then stopped, instead starting to use his hands.
Cheng Tian's Blazing Sun Walker template also incorporates Dio's vampire characteristics, which allows Cheng Tian's entire body to absorb blood. As his palms unleash their full power, a continuous stream of black mud is forcibly extracted from the body of the female version of the Hero King.

Currently, Cheng Tian's MP limit has increased from 2250 points. At the same time, due to the enhanced interaction with Sakuya, his time stop consumption has been reduced from 300 MP to 200 MP. This means that, in terms of a single time stop, Cheng Tian has initially surpassed Dio's 9 seconds and reached the standard of 11 seconds.

Unlike before when he was doing extreme challenges, he no longer had to abide by the X-ban rules. So even without using Command Seals, Cheng Tian could still use items to replenish his mana.

Before entering the instance, Cheng Tian had already allocated all the pet fees and research fees in advance, and used a small amount of money to purchase some necessary mana recovery items from the player market.

With a flash of light, a bottle of something called "Divine Dragon Ancient Water" was consumed instantly.

This mana-restoring item from the "Dynasty Warriors 2" dungeon can instantly restore 500 MP, or provide 5 free skill uses with MP consumption within 200 MP.

In addition, there are potent magic potions produced in Diablo II, mouse fruit and rejuvenating pills from Chinese Paladin 1, purification potions from Dota, and so on.

Some are cheap, some are expensive, but you should use them when it matters most. That's Cheng Tian's strategy.

If there's anything that can limit him, it's probably the dual physical and mental burden that time stop places on the caster.

In addition, as I said before, since you've already offended them, you might as well offend them to the point of death.

Gilgamesh atop the Throne of Heroes is naturally incredibly powerful, but he's just a black mud-covered flesh and blood, and he's so arrogant that he doesn't even wear golden armor. How could Cheng Tian possibly tolerate such a walking golden treasure chest?
The orange-gold figure had already darted into position, so now it was time for Dior's artificial corner to appear.

Wood big wood big wood big wood big wood big! ! ! ! !

The world's fists had already formed an impenetrable curtain of blows. Even in his time-stopped state, Gilgamesh maintained his arrogant expression while his entire body continuously shifted backward in a parallel motion. At the same time, Cheng Tian, ​​who had positioned himself behind Gilgamesh in advance, used his fiery fists to deliver slow but effective impacts, allowing Gilgamesh to take more damage with his slow, deliberate punches.

The pair of boxing gloves in Cheng Tian's hands were a parting gift from Kyo Kusanagi, bearing the Kusanagi family crest and called "Kusanagi Boxing Gloves".

[Kusanagi Gauntlets: Golden Legendary/Lv1, Gauntlets, Set Bonus. Equipment Requirements: Strength 45 + Agility 45, or Kyo Kusanagi's Approval. Durability 60/60*2.]

The Kusanagi Gauntlets will not affect your ability to equip other weapons. When you are not equipped with any weapon, the Kusanagi Gauntlets will provide an additional 45-45 base attack power.

'Kusanagi no Hi Right Punch' - Any of your punch attacks will have a 5% chance to apply '14th Style: Wild Bite' Lv1. When the effect is triggered, it will be released in the form of Kusanagi no Hi mimicking Kyo Kusanagi himself, and this move will automatically fill the gap in your move's recovery time. The internal cooldown is 1 second.

'Kusanagi Fire Left Fist' - Any of your fist-type attacks will have a 5% chance to apply '15th Style Poison Bite' Lv1, with the same rules as above.

If you possess any moves related to the Kusanagi-ryu Ancient Martial Arts, all Kusanagi-ryu Ancient Martial Arts skills will be upgraded by 1 level and can trigger a skill enhancement transformation.

『Final Battle Secret Technique: Unbound』 - Set Effect. When you simultaneously equip both gauntlets, each with 30 or more durability, have at least 200 MP, and your current HP is below 30%, you can activate the Kusanagi Flame contained within the equipment, unleashing the Final Battle Secret Technique: Unbound on the target.

[Additional note: Without your involvement, this glove originally belonged to Shingo Yabuki.]

To put it simply, Cheng Tian is a human-shaped buff machine. The only function of this Kusanagi gauntlet in his hands is to buff the world.

Even with the attribute bonus from the Eight-Headed Serpent Soul, Cheng Tian's strength and agility, barely exceeding 30, were simply insufficient to complete the same extreme speed Muda Muda as the world.

But don't forget, the world and Cheng Tian are one; its fist is Cheng Tian's fist.

As the fist curtain covered the area, the phantom of Kyo Kusanagi, composed of Kusanagi fire, began to appear frequently at a rate of 2 per second, interspersed with three black particles.

In exchange for a Command Seal and some mana-restoring items of varying prices, Cheng Tian controlled Gilgamesh for a full 20 seconds!

"Wuda!!!"

“Then, time began to flow.”

As the world's final punch struck Gilgamesh in the abdomen, Cheng Tian clapped his hands with considerable elegance.

In an instant, all the damage he had suffered in the past twenty seconds was unleashed upon Gilgamesh, who had transformed back into a man.

The countless punches and burn marks that followed eventually coalesced into fine cracks on the Servant's spirit core, until—

Totally shattered!

The King of Heroes! Has fallen!
