Chapter 101 ：Target: The Gravity Sandstorm Skill
After learning about flight skills, Evan asked,
“So what’s the second option?”
Wendy Lewis replied,
“The second direction is to patch your so‑called weaknesses—
but in a way that suits you best.
“Your mental strength isn’t something you need to worry about for now.
Even after reaching Cocoonbreak tier,
you’ll rarely encounter evolvers who specialize in mental attacks.
Those who do specialize in mental combat
need a long chain of mental‑type support skills as foundation.
They usually start as research‑type evolvers
and only transition later.
They don’t gain real combat ability
until at least Butterfly tier.
“As for long‑range evolvers—
you shouldn’t try to counter them
by learning a long‑range attack skill yourself.
That wouldn’t match your build at all.
There’s no need.”
She paused, then continued:
“I know a skill that suits you perfectly.
It would give you the ability to counter long‑range evolvers
and greatly enhance your melee combat at the same time.
“But the problem is…
it’s extremely hard to obtain.
The extract that contains it is incredibly rare.
Whether you can get it depends entirely on luck.”
Evan’s interest sharpened.
“What skill is it?”
Wendy said,
“It comes from a beast that lives deep underground—
evolved from a creature called the Demon Worm.
A Tier‑3 S‑grade beast known as the Gravity Demon.
It possesses a skill called Gravity Sandstorm.”
Evan instantly pulled out his phone
and searched for “Gravity Sandstorm.”
This content has been unlawfully taken from NovelFire; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.
He quickly found the description:
Gravity Sandstorm:
Converts evolution energy into “gravity sand”
and scatters it around the user.
Within the affected area,
the user can manipulate gravity freely.
All gravity sand can also be condensed
into a single gravity chain
that pulls distant targets directly into melee range.
Evan’s heart thumped.
This skill… is literally made for me.
Just as Wendy said—
it was perfect.
- The gravity chain could drag long‑range enemies straight into his fists
- Localized gravity control enhanced both his control and damage
- It countered his weaknesses
- And amplified his strengths
and realized how difficult it would be to obtain.
It lived thousands of meters underground,
and its numbers were extremely small.
Normal people would never go that deep.
To hunt one, you’d need:
- A high‑level burrowing skill
- The ability to reach extreme depths
- And the strength to defeat a Tier‑3 S‑grade beast
Could he burrow that deep?
Even if he could,
their current strength wasn’t enough to defeat a Gravity Demon.
Wendy only told him about the skill
so he could keep an eye out—
maybe get lucky someday.
But Evan had already made up his mind.
I must get this skill.
Once he reached Cocoonbreak tier,
he and FangBro might have a chance.
After all, they had already killed
a Tier‑2 S+ mutated crocodile together.
Wendy’s two suggestions
essentially pointed out his next two skills:
Chrysalis‑tier fourth extract → Flight skill
Cocoonbreak‑tier first extract → Gravity Sandstorm
After buying groceries and returning home,
Evan immediately went to his room
and called EvolutionTech’s regional manager, Shawn Miller.
Shawn had recently been transferred to Dongli Nation
as a provincial regional manager.
After Evan’s famous Judgment Battle,
Shawn had even called to congratulate him.
“Mr. Cole, what can I do for you?”
“Shawn, I want to buy an extract with a flight skill.
Got anything good?”
“Oh, Mr. Cole, please don’t call me that—
just call me Shawn, or Old Shawn…
What tier are you looking for?”
“S‑grade, of course.”
“Tier‑3 S‑grade with a flight skill…
Have you checked our company website?
Anything you like?”
“No.
We’ve known each other long enough.
If I need something, I’ll come straight to you.
I trust you—
not EvolutionTech.”
Shawn chuckled.
“Thank you for your trust, Mr. Cole.
And you really came at the perfect time.
I just received a Tier‑3 S‑grade extract—
top quality, absolutely perfect for your needs.
I haven’t even uploaded it to the website yet.
If you want it, it’s yours.”
After hanging up,
Shawn sent the extract details.
【Black‑Belly Drake‑Pelican Extract】
Tier: 3 S‑grade
Possible Skills:
- Sky‑Sea Twin Wings
- Beak‑Piercing Strike
- Harmony of Dragon and Phoenix
Tier‑3 S‑grade extracts were high‑level items
and could only be purchased with points.
350,000 points—
equivalent to 35 billion Lin coins.
Evan checked with Wendy
and confirmed that Sky‑Sea Twin Wings
was indeed the strongest flight skill among Tier‑3 skills.
Not because it was fast—
but because it allowed both flight and underwater movement.
The Drake‑Pelican evolved from a bird
known as a “tri‑environment predator”—
air, land, and sea.
It could fly, run, and swim with exceptional underwater hunting ability.
Its evolved form, the Black‑Belly Drake‑Pelican,
took this even further—
a true tri‑environment beast.
The price Shawn offered wasn’t cheap,
but it wasn’t overpriced either.
Still, Evan wasn’t going to pay full price.
“Shawn, with our relationship,
what’s your best price?”
“You’re a Platinum Member.
I can give you a 10% discount—
315,000 points.”
“That’s your company’s discount.
What about your discount?”
“This…
I can shave off a little more.
310,000 points…”
“So our friendship is worth 5,000 points?”
Shawn: “…”
In the end,
Evan bought the extract for 300,000 points.
“Shawn, tomorrow is New Year’s Eve.
Hurry up and send it over this afternoon.
Deliver it to Dongli University.”
After ending the call,
Evan smiled.
It was obvious this extract
wasn’t going through EvolutionTech’s official system.
Shawn was planning to pocket the difference.
But Evan didn’t care.
As long as he got a good price,
Shawn could earn whatever he wanted.
