Nameless King

Trolls took as many energy crystals as other monsters, but it was much more effective for them than for others. They didn\'t have the ice attribute, but Trolls were Primary Chronicle monsters. This was a plus for them in this situation.

They used First Chronicle crystals and got a tremendous amount of energy. Their bodies were filled with it and gradually became stronger.

The Troll Leader was the strongest of them all, and he only had one step left to evolve and become a First Chronicle monster.

When the Troll Leader absorbed energy from several crystals, he reached his peak. At that moment, the monster began to evolve. The first time monsters evolved rather quickly. The whole process lasted only a few minutes. But, during that time, the monster became stronger, and its body underwent significant changes.

Wain watched intently the changes that began to happen to the Troll Leader.

The monster\'s skin began to fade gradually, slowly changing its color from bright red to blue. Then the claws on the Troll\'s arm became longer, and a thin layer of ice appeared on them. The Troll\'s mouth became slightly smaller, but the number of fangs increased and became much sharper.

The monster\'s black hair became as white as freshly fallen snow. The monster\'s muscles became more pronounced and dense, increasing its fighting power. The final change was the appearance of several protective plates on its arms and legs.

When the evolution was complete, the Troll Leader stretched himself. There was a loud crunch of bones, and then the monster took a deep breath and blew icy steam from its mouth. The Troll\'s aura increased several times, and now this monster was on par with the other inhabitants of this place.

\'Every aspect of Troll Leader has intensified, but the most significant change was another. It seems the Troll Leader received the ice attribute during his evolution... It\'s incredible...\' thought Wain.

"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, great, that\'s even better than I could have imagined." Suddenly Wain laughed.

Wain understood why this happened. He was sure that the reason was that the Troll Leader had used ice energy crystals before he evolved. After all, there was no other reason for a Troll to have an ice attribute.

This was a positive development, as the Troll Leader could now use energy crystals with increased efficiency.

...

Two hours later, the same thing began to happen to the rest of the Trolls. They had the same changes as their leader, with only minor differences. Each of them received the ice attribute and became much stronger.

Along with them, many of the monsters living in the area slightly increased their strength after absorbing their share of energy crystals.

Wain nodded and was about to leave, but suddenly this space all shook. It was like a light earthquake. Wain didn\'t know what was happening, but the other monsters were calm.

[The number of First Chronicle monsters in this Void had reached 500.]

[Void, Ice Caves is ready for a rank upgrade.]

[You, Nameless, as the owner of this Void, must permit the territory\'s rank increase.]

\'Hmm, I have to give permission? What\'s going to happen during the area\'s rank increase?\' Wain thought.

He understood that there was no point needing permission if this decision had no consequences or dangers. In that case, the Rank of the zone would immediately increase.

As soon as Wain thought about it, several messages immediately appeared in front of him.

[You are the owner of this Void, and the development of this zone depends mainly on your power.]

​ [During the ranking of this Void, the quantity, quality, and variety of resources that can be found here will be changed. Also, various bonuses will be subject to certain adjustments.]

\'Not bad, but what\'s the risk then?\' Thought Wain and saw a few more messages.

[At this point, Soul Essence will rage and improve many aspects of the area. Therefore, the spatial barrier will become less stable, and some creatures will try to invade here and take over this area.]

[Since Ice Caves is a First Chronicle, Tiny Size, Rank-F zone, only territories with the same Chronicle will be able to attack you. However, deviations in Rank by one step are allowed.]

\'I see. This means that when the rank increase starts, this zone can be attacked by creatures from the Rank-E zone, but the size and Chronicle will be the same. Hmm, that shouldn\'t be a problem. I\'m sure we can easily fend off any threat.\' Thought Wain.

Wain had already decided, but he decided to alert the monsters before he did.

He turned to the Ice Knight and said, "Warn everyone to come here and prepare for battle. The trolls have mined some energy crystals, so the monsters from the other Void will run here. We\'ll kill them all at once and protect this place."

The Ice Knight nodded, and the next moment he turned into a blue flash. This monster was quite fast, and its fighting style was similar to that of a swordsman. The Ice Knight was unique and the strongest of all in this Void. He could single-handedly defeat more than ten First Chronicle monsters.

Ten minutes later, most of the monsters were back in the main square. They knew why they were gathered here, so they were ready to fight.

They were not opposed to the battle. On the contrary, they wanted the Rank of this area to be raised. In that case, they would get a lot of advantages and could become even stronger. Also, they had nothing to worry about since Wain would be fighting with them.

"Huh, I know that you haven\'t fought for a long time because of my order. However, you know that there is no point in battling each other. It\'s not profitable. Nevertheless, it is obvious that you need to unleash your bloodlust, and I will give you that opportunity!" Wain thundered.

"We will tear our enemies to shreds and build up our power together. Mark my words, this is the only way you can quickly climb to the top of the world!"

Wain then gave his permission to upgrade the Rank of the zone.
