BXBX NOVEL Chapter 228 Demonic Form
Villain Ch 228. Demonic Form
The ghostly NPC, once again, appeared in all its spectral glory. It wore a wise expression and a knowing smile, its presence exuding a sense of otherworldly wisdom.
"Congratulations," the NPC\'s voice echoed with a soothing yet commanding tone. "You have proven yourself worthy of ascending to the next tier. Are you prepared to embark on a new journey, to face greater challenges and unlock your true potential?"
Allen\'s weary gaze met the NPC\'s spectral form, a mixture of relief and determination shining in his eyes.
With a nod of certainty, Allen responded, "Yes, I am ready."
The ghostly NPC nodded approvingly, its form shimmering with an otherworldly light. "Very well. Your dedication and strength have not gone unnoticed. Prepare yourself, for your new power."
The NPC\'s spectral hand slowly extended towards him, and as their fingertips made contact, a surge of energy pulsed through Allen\'s body. It was as if a dormant power within him had been awakened.
A dark aura began to emanate from the NPC\'s hand, tendrils of shadow swirling and coiling like a mesmerizing dance. The inky blackness gradually enveloped Allen, embracing him in its ethereal embrace. The aura clung to his form, seeping into every pore, infusing him with its mysterious essence.
Allen could feel the power coursing through his veins, his senses heightened and his body infused with newfound strength. The dark aura seemed to awaken dormant abilities within him, granting him an enhanced connection to the virtual world and the skills he had acquired.
A series of announcements appeared.

His eyes sparkled with excitement as he absorbed the significance of his new abilities. A mischievous grin spread across his face, revealing a sense of anticipation for the challenges that lay ahead. "Nice..." he murmured, unable to contain his satisfaction. The thought of unleashing these skills in future battles against formidable opponents sent a surge of adrenaline coursing through his veins.
Among the skills and talents he had acquired, one, in particular, piqued his curiosity— Demonic form. From what he knew, it was accessible only at the third tier. But he found himself with early access to this powerful transformation. It was a clear indication that the game developers were adapting to the rapid influx of players, ensuring a more balanced and engaging experience for everyone. The meeting earlier in the day had revealed that some wealthy pay-to-play enthusiasts had joined the game, their presence detected through their extravagant purchases and IDs.
While these players may have relied on their financial resources to acquire top-tier gear, their actual skill level remained questionable. Money could buy many things, but true mastery of the game required dedication, strategy, and practice. But again, money might have bought them fancy equipment, but it couldn\'t guarantee victory in this virtual realm of true skill and strategy.
"Okay, let\'s try out my new form then," Allen muttered to himself, his voice brimming with excitement and anticipation.
"Demonic form!" he declared.
As the words left his lips, a surge of energy coursed through his body, tingling with a dark and volatile aura. Allen could feel the power within him intensify, his very essence transforming into something otherworldly.
His body began to elongate, stretching to an imposing height of approximately three meters. The once-familiar contours of his physique were replaced by a striking manifestation of power and darkness.
Gray, taut skin now covered his body, giving him an appearance akin to polished steel. Each muscle bulged with enhanced definition, showcasing his increased strength and resilience. His limbs appeared more robust and sinewy, capable of delivering devastating blows. The sensation of power coursing through his veins was exhilarating.
Allen\'s wings, once modest in size, underwent a dramatic elongation. They extended outward, spanning an impressive span, their leathery membranes now reinforced and imbued with an ethereal glow. These formidable appendages exuded an aura of dominance, symbolizing his newfound dominion.
His horns and hair underwent a similar transformation, growing longer and more prominent. The horns twisted and curved majestically atop his head, casting an intimidating shadow. His hair, now cascading in wild, untamed waves, seemed to emanate an ominous aura, enhancing his overall menacing appearance.
Allen\'s nails also underwent a subtle change, growing slightly longer and sharper, even without the activation of his Demonic Claw. They possessed an inherent lethality, capable of rending armor and flesh alike.
[Demonic Form has been activated!]
[All statuses +50%]
[Remaining time: 4:59]
Allen\'s excitement and curiosity grew as he surveyed his transformed body. With each glance, he marveled at the demonic features that now adorned him. His head turned from side to side, taking in the elongated horns that spiraled gracefully from his temples.
"Man, this is insane," he muttered to himself, unable to contain his awe.
Eager to get a better look at his altered appearance, Allen realized he needed a mirror. Without hesitation, he expressed his desire to the ghostly NPC accompanying him.
"Is there a mirror around here?" he asked, his curiosity piqued.
"There\'s a mirror in the throne room. Would you like to return there?" the NPC offered.
"Absolutely," Allen replied, his eagerness palpable.
The ghostly NPC extended his ethereal hand and opened a shimmering portal before them.
Without a second thought, Allen stepped forward and got inside.
