Chapter 344 Take Good Care Of Me Partner
Since Thirteen didn’t lack money at the moment, he decided to buy nearly three hundred Avatars from the Dvalinn Federation using Empyrium as currency.
The majority of the Avatars he bought could be gained in the Rigel Continent, so it hadn’t been difficult for the Elrod Clan and the three Prestigious Families to procure them.
He bought everyone, with the exception of the Captains, Rank 4 Night Wolves, which made Alcapone whistle.
The reason why Thirteen chose Night Wolves as mounts for his soldiers was due to two reasons.
First, the Night Wolf was a great mount.
It was fast, and they could climb steep hills and mountains. It was also a good swimmer, making it a very versatile mount.
Second, it was a Hunter.
It could serve as a guard or a fighter for the Green Lanterns while they tended to the injured.
As for Thirteen’s captains, he gave them a different kind of Avatar, which made Cristopher and Colbert give their Commander a thumbs up in their hearts.
“What the hell?” Alexis muttered as he looked at the Rank 4 Chad Skunk that Thirteen had bought for him and the other Captains.
Pietro, Paul, and Piper had the same reaction as Alexis because they didn’t expect that Thirteen would be giving them Chad Skunks, instead of Night Wolves.
(A/N: I just realized that their names all start with the letter P. What a coincidence. Kekeke.)
Frankly, they preferred Night Wolves over the Chad Skunks. The latter ones were not only slow but were also hated by the Wanderers who fought against them.
For them, Chad Skunks were just Avatars for newbies because their fighting ability was really low.
Although they could stand on their hind legs and fight like a bear, they weren’t really a monster meant to fight at close quarters.
The only thing that they could do was unleash a stink spray that could deter their enemies.
Only Cristopher and Colbert were genuinely happy to get Chad Skunks of their own, which made the four other Captains look at the two of them with pity.
‘These two are no good. They are already brainwashed.’
These were the thoughts of the four Captains as they looked at the two boys, who were acting like two little kids who had just received a birthday present.
The members of the 69th Battalion, especially those who weren’t from well-off families, were incredibly happy to receive the Night Wolf avatars.
“I’m glad that you liked my gifts,” Thirteen said. “But from now on, all of you will be training on how to ride your partners. I want you to practice shooting while riding them because we will mostly be doing guerrilla tactics on the battlefield.”
“Sir, how about us?” Alexis asked. “Chad Skunks aren’t really good runners, and their performance in battle is just average. I don’t think that we can effectively use them in battle.”
Thirteen nodded in understanding because he was certain that all the other Wanderers felt the same way.
“If you really feel that way then I can exchange your Chad Skunk for a Night Wol—”
But before Thirteen could even finish his words, Alcapone approached Alexis and looked down on him.
“Exchange with me!” Alcapone said as he held a small black statue of a Night Wolf in his hand.
These small statues were the form that Avatars took when they were being used to trade or exchanged for other items.
“Good.” Alexis nodded and exchanged his “weak” Chad Skunk for Alcapone’s Rank 4 Night Wolf.
A big smile appeared on Alcapone’s face as he absorbed the Avatar and summoned it a few seconds later.
Alcapone looked at his Chad Skunk and nodded his head in satisfaction.
Although there were some differences, the look was still the same.
After being saved by Giga, Alcapone had wondered what kind of Monster was the one that saved him.
This was the first time he was seeing a Chad Skunk, and the moment he saw it, something clicked inside his head.
“Take good care of me, Partner,” Alcapone raised his hand toward the Chad Skunk, who then gave him a high five.
It was as if the Chad Skunk was telling him “I got you Fam”, which made the smile on Alcapone’s face widen.
Paul also exchanged his Chad Skunk with a Night Wolf because he shared the same opinion as Alexis.
Piper who had an unwavering belief in Thirteen didn’t exchange her Avatar for a Night Wolf.
She always had the mindset that their Commander did things for a reason.
Pietro didn’t exchange his Chad Skunk for a Night Wolf since he really didn’t need a mount.
He was an extremely fast runner and could even leave the Night Wolf in the dust if he wanted to.
For this reason alone, he had no reason to trade the Chad Skunk that Thirteen had chosen just for him.
‘Cristopher and Colbert, you are going to teach Pietro and Piper how to use the Chad Skunks in battle.’
Skunk that Thirteen had chosen just for him.
‘Cristopher and Colbert, you are going to teach Pietro and Piper ‘Also, make sure to feed your mounts the special Skunk Food that I prepared just for them.’
All Avatars were unable to increase their Ranks.
Meaning, if they were a Rank 4 Monster when they died, they would become Rank 4 Avatars.
However, although they couldn’t rank up, they could still evolve into a stronger version of themselves.
What Thirteen planned to do was to evolve the Rank 4 Chad Skunks into Rank 4 Blaze Skunks using the Dragon Blood that he had harvested from the Fire Dragon, whom they had defeated in the Valbarra Archipelago.
He was also planning to make the Night Wolves evolve into Alpha Monsters in the span of three months.
As long as they were able to meet the condition, even Avatars would be able to mutate into a stronger version of themselves.
Avatars evolving or mutating were extremely rare cases.
Those who had a clue on how to deliberately do it had kept it as their highly guarded secret because if people were to know of such a method, the majority of Wanderers might also give it a try.
Researchers had to conduct countless experiments in order to find the conditions to make the Avatars evolve.
But Thirteen didn’t have a problem.
He just needed to access his Soul Core, and all the information he needed would bare itself in his mind.
Although he was certain that the mutation that would be happening on the Avatars of his subordinates would cause a stir in the Dvalinn Federation, he already had a perfect alibi for it.
No matter how hard anyone tries, they wouldn’t be able to link the transformation of the Avatars to him. Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)
With the newest addition to his Elite Force of Wanderers, he had taken yet another step closer to realizing his goal in the Rigel Continent.
