Last Egg: Reincarnated as a Dragon in a Game

Chapter 452 Intention Of Chaos

?

'All three of those are truly great options.' A brief run through their descriptions was enough to know they were terrifyingly strong.

'The first and second ones are similar in their nature.' Vesuvius carefully compared both options, 'The second one is definitely of a much higher potential. The energy of an entire star fueling my abilities and regenerating my body...'

It was terrifying for him to imagine how unbeatable he would be. However, there was a single considerable weakness, 'It is bound to a star, which creates a weakness. What if someone attacks my star? What will determine which star is mine? Can I choose? On top of that to fully utilize it, I would have to fight on a specific location.'

There was too much uncertainty to his liking, 'The first one, on the other hand, lacks the sheer and unimaginable energy of a star, but on the other hand, my source of power will be straight below my feet.'

The power to control the terrain and weather was more than attractive, as he could imagine himself changing and rearranging the entire planet to his liking. He could destroy all the enemy countries by earthquakes and hurricanes without needing to even show up.

'No, dealing with mortals is already easy. What I need to worry about are powerful individuals. To deal with them, something like this wouldn't be enough to even scratch them.'

The most important and attractive aspect of both evolutions was the potential for unorthodox and game-breaking combos he could already smell on a mile, 'Both of them would boost my survivability to another level.'

Burying his heart would naturally create a weakness, though he was an anomaly as he had two of them, so using the spare one would allow him to become so painfully in the ass to kill it made him shiver in joy thinking about his poor enemies trying to kill him to no avail.

'The star one is the same. Burning my energy to preserve my life would give me enough time to use my divine kingdom linked to the star and safely escape there where the star would fully regenerate me with its near infinity energy.'

He merged his divine kingdom with his spacetime fragment from the dungeon, making it easier to enter it anywhere.

'Both of them are simply too great. Let's take a look at the last option.'

At first glance, it was the blandest option, lacking powerful combos and weird life-saving abilities. However, Vesuvius knew its potential was more than one could tell.

'Gravity, simple yet the most versatile out of all three.'

It wouldn't be a simple, instantaneous boost in power. Instead, it would be something he could use to fuse his affinities without almost any hesitation and evolve them toward the final apocalypse element.

'Also I could probably manipulate everything around me with it.' Gravity was a force with the power to affect even time and space. He could make materials harder, enemies slower, and even more.

It was too hard to decide, almost causing him a migraine. This was a rare opportunity to gain an evolution that, just from their names and description, felt more like something he should get much later.

The dragon froze before his eyes crackled with lightning as he realized something.

'How could I miss it?'

A terrifying idea that made the dragon chuckle formed in his head, 'Huh? Do I need to choose? You have tried to scam me before, system. What if I will scam you now?'

The old conversation with the administrator replayed before his eyes as he focused on every word being said.

'The next evolution, I will get lucky, and the options will be all stronger than usual.' He already took the lucky spin, and he got his pool of options that would only respec after he evolves. He was still someone with vast knowledge of the system mechanics, so he knew when it would respec.

'Level 130, which isn't enough for metamorphosis. Yes, this is good. This can work.' He focused, remembering, and thinking about all the forum posts and his observations. In the end, his body shivered as he found a loophole.

As he thought about it, he found out nothing was stopping him from doing it.

'I don't have to choose. I already spun the wheel so I can wait until my evolutions stack for a triple evolution, and I will take...' Then the dragon read through all of them again and exploded into laughter, "Hahaha. No, I was wrong. This might be your intention from the very beginning."

All three of the options weren't separate. They were all connected in a way, 'A planet orbits a star, bound by gravitational force.' They were each a part of something much more complex and profound, and from the administrator's words, it wouldn't be beyond them to do something like this just to mess with the world.

'Gravity and star... that could probably lead to a black hole affinity. However, what will these three lead to, together? It will probably be some... oh it is similar to that orbiting soul from before. Is the system trying to push me in that direction?' Even ignoring the weird esoterics behind it, Vesuvius could see the stupendously strong combos of all three evolutions.

'To kill me would be so extremely hard. Also, all that energy I would have access to. Finally, the high-level elements I would gain.' The dragon couldn't help but grin at the prospect.

It all fitted together. Still, one thing made Vesuvius hesitate: ' Twenty levels is a lot on my level. Not evolving now and not gaining the extra power could easily become fatal.'

He was in the middle of a war against cunning and powerful enemies and was the underdog, 'No, that is why I have to risk. If I truly want to win this war, that the powerful dragon's before me didn't survive, then I need so much more power. At worst, I will stop at a double evolution.'

"Thank you, administrator, you have kept your word. The power I will get out of this is truly adequate compensation. You can be sure, you will get your chaos."
