#414 - Chapter 414 Soul Tracing
As Wu Wei turned his gaze to the upgrade button of the Abyss Hatchery, a new prompt appeared before him.
【Do you want to upgrade the Abyss Hatchery?】
【Yes/No】
Wu Wei decisively chose yes.
【Your Abyss Hatchery has been upgraded to Level 2.】
With a surge of black and red light, the newly constructed Abyss Hatchery before Wu Wei was upgraded to Level 2.
However, the effect of this upgraded Abyss Hatchery was not particularly strong.
After upgrading from Level 1 to Level 2, the Abyss Hatchery only gained one additional incubation slot.
“Continue upgrading.”
Seeing this, Wu Wei didn't hesitate and continued to upgrade.
However, this time, Wu Wei upgraded the Abyss Hatchery to Level 20 in one go.
As countless black and red auras poured from the vortex in the sky into the Abyss Hatchery, the appearance of the Abyss Hatchery finally underwent a complete transformation from head to toe.
The Level 1 Abyss Hatchery resembled a small blood pool enveloped by countless black and red tentacles.
But when it was upgraded to Level 20, these black and red tentacles disappeared.
However, the shape of this small blood pool expanded more than tenfold.
Moreover, the liquid inside changed from the previous black and red liquid to a pure black congealment.
These black congealments rolled continuously, like living creatures.
Just by looking at it, one could feel the countless life forces surging within.
In addition to its appearance, the Abyss Hatchery finally gained a new special effect and a large number of new demon warrior types after the upgrade.
【Soul溯源 (Soul Tracing).】
【The Abyss Hatchery with this ability, for every thousand non-Imp demon warriors hatched, will gain more bloodline awakening opportunities in the next demon's hatching process.】
【Note: This effect cannot be accumulated!】
【Note: This effect cannot create Primordial Demons!】
This was the new effect after the Abyss Hatchery was upgraded.
After obtaining this ability, Wu Wei immediately hatched one thousand and one Imps to experiment.
Of course, although the Abyss Hatchery had been upgraded, the problem was that this number of demons still needed to be hatched in five batches.
Soon, more than a thousand Imps, as ugly as they could be, arrived in this world.
But Wu Wei didn't even look at them and drove them all away.
Then he focused all his attention on that one thousand and first Imp.
Sure enough, just as the Abyss Hatchery had described.
When the Soul溯源 effect was truly activated, this special Imp was very different from the others even before it was born.
Ordinary Imp cocoons were about 1.2 to 1.3 meters tall, but this Imp's demon cocoon was as high as 1.5 meters.
Moreover, when this demon cocoon was really hatched, the special little Imp that emerged from it was much taller than its peers.
In order to more easily compare its strength, Wu Wei summoned a previously hatched ordinary Imp and had it fight with the little Imp that had activated Bloodline Tracing.
Unsurprisingly, the individual strength of this little Imp was stronger than Wu Wei had thought.
But it was only slightly stronger.
This little demon who activated the Bloodline Tracing easily crushed its kind, whose physique and attributes were not as good as its own, but its so-called strength was only considered strong among Imps.
Because higher-level units, whether Laurent Demons or Winding Demons, all had the ability to instantly kill it.
“In other words, from a data perspective.”
“Demons that have activated the chance of bloodline awakening will only be slightly stronger than their peers in terms of initial combat power?”
“This looks like an ability to get elite units for free, but it’s not that simple in practice.”
“Because the real role of bloodline awakening lies in growth...”
The reason Wu Wei said this was because when this Imp devoured one of its own kind, its attribute growth far exceeded Wu Wei's expectations.
Originally, an Imp would gain about 0.2 to 0.5 attribute points after devouring another Imp.
But this Imp, which had been given the Bloodline Awakening effect, was different.
It could obtain a full 0.8 attribute points from the corpses of its own kind!
This upper limit clearly did not belong to demons of the Imp level.
With the idea of continuing the experiment, Wu Wei decided to let it continue to devour the second and third Imps to determine whether its attribute growth would have a large error.
To Wu Wei's surprise, this Imp still gained 0.8 to 1.6 attribute points after devouring the second and third of its kind.
At this time, it was already much stronger than when it was first born.
“Continue!”
Wu Wei excitedly sent more Imps to the side of this Imp that had activated the Bloodline Awakening.
He wanted to see...
What kind of effect would this Imp's so-called bloodline awakening present!
And to what extent would its soul trace back!
