··········

Perhaps it was because she was too concerned about her baby daughter's safety.

It's also possible that he hoped Helen would join him in persuading Gwen not to get too close to Erin for the time being, lest she be caught in the crossfire.

In short, this time George did not hide anything from Helen. Instead, he directly told Helen his guess that the madman who attacked Tony Stark last night might target Arryn for revenge after escaping.

But things didn't go as George had expected.

After Helen listened to George's words...

It seems he wasn't as worried as he had imagined.

Instead, he smiled and hugged the somewhat unhappy Gwen, then whispered in her ear, "If it's Erin, I believe he will protect you. However, I also hope that you two can be careful in certain matters and avoid causing any deaths."

obviously.

The safety Helen talks about and the safety George talks about are two completely different things.

A blush quickly rose on Gwen's face as she realized what was happening.

"Mother!"

Slightly annoyed, Gwen stomped her foot and ran straight to her room without even eating.

Chinatown.

Inside Erin's increasingly eerie old house.

Arlin, back in his safe haven, retrieved the Ring of Greed that he had just taken from his clone, and then performed a spiritual leap.

They then directly relied on that mysterious connection.

His spirit body leaped to a deeper level of the Balance Space.

Upon re-entering the Scales of Destiny, Erin did not linger but headed straight for the Scales of Destiny.

After approaching the scales of fate.

Arlin took out fragments of the Destroyer from the Ring of Greed, then uttered a soft utterance to the great scales above the River of Fate in the distance.

"exchange."

Almost the instant Erin finished speaking, a smaller scale, many times smaller than the original scale on the River of Fate, was projected in front of Erin.

He pushed all the fragments of the Destroyer Armor to one side of the projected balance scale in front of him.

A faint voice, thought, or concept appeared in Erin's mind, seemingly asking what Erin wanted to exchange.

What to exchange?

Erin already had a general idea of ​​what he would exchange the Destroyer Armor fragments for.

After the trump card of summoning a six-winged angel with the [Angel's Scepter] was used up, Erin, though he didn't say it, was still a little uneasy without his trump card.

The [Angel's Scepter] option to summon an angel has a cooldown period of up to three months.

During this time, Erin felt it was necessary to find other ways to fill the void in his life.

this time.

If possible, Erin hoped to use the Destroyer's armor fragments to exchange for a life-saving trump card from the river of fate.

Or some kind of item with powerful offensive capabilities.

After all, compared to the magician's numerous and varied means of survival, Erin actually lacked a powerful means of attack.

but.

The only thing that worried Erin was whether he could exchange the fragments of the Destroyer Armor he had for what he wanted.

If it were the complete Destroyer Armor, Erin certainly wouldn't worry about not being able to exchange it for anything good from the scales of fate.

But now.

All he had were fragments of the Destroyer Armor.

Between thoughts.

On the other side of the scales of fate, several phantoms have begun to coalesce.

The first phantom was a crystal-clear, blood-red phantom.

[Blood Core: The only relic left behind by Count Dracula after his death in a certain world. Placed in the heart and melted with the heart's blood, it grants the user the power to be resurrected. Even if the body is shattered into millions of pieces, as long as a single drop of blood remains, it can be reformed under the rules of the universe, allowing the user to live another life.]

[Note: No one can truly kill me unless I want to die. —Dracula]

[Note: After melting the blood core, the user will unknowingly absorb a portion of Dracula's essence, transforming into a vampire. The longer this process continues, the stronger the tendency towards vampire transformation becomes. Once the user is resurrected using the blood core, they will inevitably become a vampire.]

vampire?

Although Erin was somewhat envious of the Blood Core's terrifying ability to bring the dead back to life, he had no desire to become a vampire.

Putting aside everything else.

Vampires have too many weaknesses, and they are too deadly.

Sunlight, a cross, sterling silver...

Erin didn't want to leave his opponents with so many weaknesses to exploit.

After glancing at the [Blood Core].

Erin immediately focused his gaze on the second tall, illusory figure.

[The Pacifist - Modified Version: In a world surrounded by oceans, a remarkable technological creation was built. After the entire world was devoured by an indescribable entity, it seems to have undergone a terrifying transformation, becoming even more powerful.]

[Note: His experience of being devoured by an indescribable being seems to have endowed him with some unique traits; to become its master, one must share the same fetishes.]

[Note: Master, let's go on a trip together - Pacifist No. 666]

[Hint: As a pacifist who has been devoured by an unspeakable entity, Pacifist 666 enjoys traveling to crisis-ridden places. If its demands are not met, Pacifist 666 will choose to go on strike to vent its dissatisfaction.]

After glancing at the information displayed in the notes section, Erin was truly surprised that this pacifist Gundam was actually a travel enthusiast.

After a slight hesitation...

Erin looked away.

After the first two phantom images.

The third thing to appear before Erin was an inverted phantom of a magical ritual.

Byron's Transformation Array: In a certain world, a melee wizard painstakingly developed a transformation array. Once successfully set up, the array can draw upon and transform the power of the void dimension, converting it into a magical array that can directly nourish the physical body.

[Note: Thanks to this magic circle, Byron later grew into the most powerful melee mage in that wizarding world. Of course, Byron was also eventually hunted down by many other dimensional dukes because of this magic circle, and died at the hands of a hellish duke whose power had been largely drained.]

[Note: While extracting and transforming the power of the void dimension, remember to avoid those dimensional lords. Otherwise, those short-tempered dimensional lords will not hesitate to kill those ants who dare to steal their power.]

When Erin saw the row of data displayed by [Byron's Transformation Array], his eyes lit up.

Good heavens, this can extract power from a certain dimension and transform it into power to nourish the body. Isn't this exactly what I want?

With this [Byron's Transformation Array], he could use the [Cosmic Brain Meditation Method] to temper his mental power while enhancing his physical strength, making Erin's body truly powerful as well.

Instead of barely making ends meet like we are now.

Looking at the three swap options on the other side of the scale.

I didn't hesitate for long.

Arlin then chose [Byron's Transformation Array].

Giving a man a fish is never as good as teaching him how to fish.

Blood Core and the modified version of Pacifism can quickly reduce Erin's power.

But those forces are not only riddled with various side effects, but they are also external forces.

In contrast, Erin preferred the [Byron's Transformation Array]. At least, the power transformed and strengthened by the [Byron's Transformation Array] belonged to Erin himself.

··························

After selecting [Byron's Transformation Array], a small phantom of a magic circle appeared in Erin's palm.

This is the fixed [Byron Transformation Array].

Once Erin exits the [Balance Space], he can choose a location and drop the phantom of the magic circle in his hand.

At that time, this transformation array will imprint its power between heaven and earth, and then through the transformation ritual, it will capture and absorb the power of the void dimension, transforming it into special energy that can enhance physical fitness.

Looking at the densely packed runes on the small magic circle phantom in his palm.

Feeling a little dizzy from looking at it, Erin finally shook her head.

After returning to reality.

Erin specifically instructed the little monster to clear out a room on the third floor for use in the upcoming training sessions.

As the spirit of the house, moving is an extremely easy thing for it.

Just a few seconds.

The little monster cleared out an exceptionally clean, semi-enclosed space for Erin.

"go!"

After the room was cleaned, Erin flicked his wrist, and the [Byron Conversion Array] flew out of his hand.

After leaving Erin's palm, the [Byron Transformation Array] instantly grew to a hundred times its original size.

At the center of the magic circle, the runes transformed into chains of runes shimmering with golden light, instantly imprinting the power of the Byron Transformation Magic Circle into the void.

As he watched Ailin extend the rune chains into the void, a dark glint appeared in his eyes.

That was a sign that Erin had pushed his spiritual vision to its limit.

pity.

Erin didn't know much about magical rituals or magic circles.

Otherwise, one might be able to learn even more from this [Byron Transformation Array].

"Click, click..."

After the runic chains probed into the void.

The core of the Byron Transformation Array, a magical ritual, was also embedded in the ceiling of the room.

After faintly scorching the void, leaving distorted marks.

The Byron Conversion Array quickly disappeared into the ceiling amidst a golden light, vanishing without a trace right before Erin's eyes.

"Did it work?"

Sensing the fleeting brilliance of golden light, a hint of curiosity flashed in Erin's eyes.

According to records from the Byron Transformation Array.

The appearance of golden light signifies the successful setup of the Byron Transformation Array.

In other words.

Erin doesn't need to do anything from now on.

The Byron Transformation Array also draws in the power of the surrounding void dimensions, transforming it into special energy that can enhance physical strength.

Thinking about this...

Erin then took a cushion from the room next door and sat down in the center of the [Byron Conversion Array], where his figure had disappeared.

Waiting for that wisp of energy that is said to enhance physical strength.

While waiting for that wisp of energy that was said to enhance physical strength, Erin didn't sit idle. He closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.

And with the operation of the [Byron Transformation Array]...

In the dim light, even Ailin's spiritual vision seemed to have become a little clearer.

soon.

Strands of dark energy were drawn into the center of the magic circle along a golden rune chain.

As these black energies appeared, a huge golden millstone suddenly emerged from the center of the magic circle.

As the millstone rotates, the strands of dark energy at the center of the magic array are drawn into the millstone, and then continuously broken down under the grinding action.

Break it again.

In the process of constant crushing.

The pitch-black gas seemed to become clearer and clearer, eventually transforming into a pale golden, iridescent energy through some wondrous process.

································

Through spiritual vision, I "saw" that wisp of colorful energy that had begun to emit a pale golden light.

While contemplating the "Cosmic Brain Meditation Method," Erin took a slight breath and "absorbed" the pale golden, colorful energy to his side.

"Is this the special energy transformed by Byron's Transformation Array?"

After a few seconds of contemplation, Erin used the [Cosmic Brain Meditation Method] to swallow the wisp of golden energy in one gulp.

After swallowing the pale golden, mottled energy, Erin immediately felt a surge of fiery energy that instantly flowed from his head to all parts of his body.

Stimulated by this fiery energy, Erin's mind became clearer than ever before.

Upon seeing this, Erin instantly entered a meditative state, then formed hand seals, actively controlling the fiery energy to flow into every corner of his body.

To control that fiery energy, Erin's hands flew, one hand seal after another dancing like butterflies between them.

Before long, wisps of white mist began to escape from the pores of Erin's body.

Along with the white mist, wisps of foul-smelling black slime were also expelled from Erin's body.

After half an hour.

After swallowing the golden energy continuously generated by the golden millstone.

Erin finally opened his eyes again, waking up from his meditation.

Once he regained consciousness, Erin had a sudden thought, and power instantly surged from his heart, erupting from every part of his body.

No.

More than just strength.

After absorbing that wisp of pale golden energy, the cells in Erin's body seemed to become more active.
