Villain: Ultimate Mutation System in the Alternate World

BUZZZZ!

The sound of chainsaws ripping through flesh echoed through the barren landscape as Reign began dual wielding.

With each swing of his two Skull Grinder Carnages, he carved a path through the horde of corrupteds.

His movements were brutal and deadly. There was no time to waste, so he mowed down everything in his path.

"RAWWR!" The corrupteds rushed at him with wild red eyes and twisted limbs, but he showed no mercy.

His chainsaws roared and spat blood and spoiled remains, tearing through flesh and bone with ease. The ground became slick with black substance as he hacked his way forward .

Arc was on his right, his sword flashing in the dark mist . Each strike was precise, leaving a trail of destruction behind him.

He moved fast and efficiently slicing through the horde with minimal effort .

Every time he swung his sword, red lightning killed those around him, creating a chain reaction that prevented him from being easily surrounded.

The sound of metal meeting flesh echoed through the air as Arc's blade found its mark time and time again.

His movements were too smooth, a stark contrast to Reign who was just cleaving everything like a psychopath .

The reason for this difference wasn't because Arc was more disciplined; rather, it was because he was restricted to a set of movements, while Reign, on the other hand, could do whatever he wanted while achieving much better results.

Meanwhile, Shackler covered the left flank, her chain whipping through the air and coiling on anything that dared to approach her.

The metal links struck out like serpents, wrapping around the corrupted's limbs and torsos with a vice-like grip.

With a powerful tug, she pulled them closer, their roars drowned out by the sound of their flesh being squeezed until they turned into mangled meat.

She faced more difficulty because her power wasn't focused on heavy attacks. However, as she continued to fight, Reign could tell that she was improving little by little.

With the trio working together, their fighting power was strong enough to turn the encounter into a one-sided massacre.

This nest feared by many become just a normal hunting ground for them .

As the horde began to thin out, Reign took a moment to absorb their corpses.

Meanwhile, Arc and Shackler continued to hold off the remaining corrupteds, ensuring that none would escape.

After a couple of minutes, the whole place became silent again, the echoes of battle fading into the distance.

What remained was the trio, their master sitting on the ground while the two piled up the corpses near him.

[Ding!]

[Level Up+ 1]

"Finally," Reign sighed after seeing that he had reached level 35.

He was afraid that this nest would not provide him enough experience points, but thankfully, he was already close to leveling up after that train incident.

All he needed was a push.

But for now, he was more focused on getting more Dark Dust, so without checking his stats, he hurriedly went back to his truck and began to hit more nests.

The number of corrupteds in each nest wasn't that high, so he had to sweep through the available locations near the city.

He didn't try venturing out further because he knew it would only end up wasting his time because of how rare corrupted nest where in this area.

It wasn't like those places in Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities where the population of corrupteds was almost endless.

He had just gotten lucky in Summit City because that giant pile of corpses end up collecting a lot of corrupted , making his life easier.

Almost two days had passed, and during that time frame, he did not level up, showing just how inefficient this way of leveling up was.

He discovered that the freshly made corrupted from Summit City provided more EXP, while those who had been corrupted for a long time barely gave anything.

The only silver lining here was that at least he was gaining more Dark Points

'That was the last nest,' He paused in his track after destroying another horde.

Instead of getting further from the city, he decided to take a break and think about creating new skills while he was still out in the open.

His strongest one was Death Rail Gun, and he wanted to improve it using the new knowledge he had gathered so far.

He sat down on the dusty ground, his mind whirring with calculations.

The Death Rail Gun was a powerful weapon, but he knew it had room for improvement. He needed to break down its components and understand how to enhance each aspect.

First, he considered the energy source.

The current system drew power directly from his own core, channeling it into the high-velocity projectile he created from his bones.

While effective, it drained his energy rapidly. He needed a way to increase efficiency.

He envisioned using parts of his bones to create a capacitor.

He thought of using his bones' natural ability to store and release energy.

By hollowing out sections of his bones and filling them with dense, compact bone marrow, he could create a natural capacitor.

The bone marrow, rich in iron and minerals, would act as a storage medium.

He would use a spiral structure within the bone to maximize surface area and efficiency.

When charged with his energy, these "bone capacitors" would release a burst of power when needed, reducing the strain on his core.

Next, he focused on the projectile itself.

The current design was a solid sharp pointy bone. It was effective but lacked sophistication. He considered ways to increase its destructive power.

He envisioned a layered projectile with an aerodynamic shape to reduce air friction and increase speed.

The projectile would have a dense core made from the strongest parts of his bones, surrounded by a streamlined outer shell.

The outer shell would be shaped like a cone , minimizing air resistance.

This layering would ensure stability in flight and maximum impact upon hitting the target.

The firing mechanism was another area for improvement.

Currently, the rail gun used electromagnetic rails to accelerate the projectile. He knew he could increase the speed and power with some adjustments.

He already had a rail system made from his bones, infused with his energy to minimize energy loss and maximize projectile speed. To enhance it, he focused on increasing efficiency and precision.

He decided to improve the magnetic confinement, ensuring the projectile remained on a precise trajectory.

By integrating additional magnetic nodes along the rail, he could create a more stable and powerful magnetic field.

This would ensure the projectile stayed centered, reducing any wobble and increasing accuracy.

To further enhance the system's efficiency, he worked on optimizing the natural conductivity of his bones.

By reconfiguring the internal structure of the bone rails, he could increase the flow of energy with less resistance.

This involved meticulous reshaping and reinforcing the bones to create a more direct and efficient energy pathway.

Reign also decided to incorporate an energy recycling system.

As the projectile moved along the rail, some of the energy would be recaptured and fed back into the weapon, reducing overall energy consumption and allowing for rapid, successive shots without draining his reserves too quickly.

[Ding: Congratulations! Your Death Rail Gun has been upgraded multiple times. Would you like to rename it?]

[Yes]/[No]
