Chapter 512: Phantom Jellyfish
"Hell yeah, that’s what I’m talking about!" Ethan grinned, his excitement barely contained.
With this, he now had not one, but two Tier 14 Crimson Ultimate Heroes under his command. That alone was a game-changer. It was a massive leap forward for his plans—and more importantly, it gave him a real shot at clearing the Citadel of Shadows dungeon.
I mean, come on—Tier 14!
The sheer power and rarity of a Crimson Ultimate Hero at that level? That wasn’t something you just stumbled across. It was the kind of firepower that could bulldoze through endgame content.
And now he had two.
Wummmm...
As he was still riding the high, a strange, powerful energy began to pulse from deep within his body. It wasn’t chaotic—it was focused, ancient, and overwhelming. The energy fused with his own, swirling together until it condensed into a small, glowing orb embedded in his chest.
The aura it gave off was unlike anything he’d felt before—dark, yes, but also divine, like the ocean itself had left its mark on him.
And with it, his strength surged. Not just a little—he felt like he’d doubled in power. His level had definitely gone up, though he wouldn’t know the exact number until he left this place.
"No doubt about it... this thing’s a true Primordial Force artifact," Ethan muttered, clenching his fist as the energy settled into his core. "I can feel it. I’m way stronger now."
The power finished syncing with his body, and as he opened his eyes, he saw both Ataneya and Namyanna kneeling before him, heads bowed, their expressions solemn.
"You two can get up now," Ethan said, a little awkwardly. "No need for all that in front of me."
