Chapter 135: Handmade Bullets (Seeking Monthly Votes)

For most Extraordinary, continuous ascension is an impossible thing.

Every time they accumulate Spirituality, it is accompanied by subtle pollution and influence, reaching a peak after the Ascension Ritual.

Even if they can successfully ascend, it will come with certain problems.

For instance, the auditory and visual hallucinations of Liliyat are already considered relatively mild.

And an Extraordinary in this state often needs to use various methods to smooth out this influence; aside from a few special techniques, the most peaceful and stable method recognized is to consume time and slowly adapt.

Only after completely adapting can they accumulate Spirituality again and climb toward the next Primordial Substance!

Of course, ignoring this pollution and influence and directly improving after ascension is not impossible, but becoming crazy, or even twisted and out of control, or suffering physical alienation... is an inevitable result.

"I didn't realize a whole night had passed; fortunately, an Extraordinary is full of energy, so I don't feel sleepy..."

After becoming a 'Light Shepherd', he has a certain amount of confidence to explore this ruin, but he still needs some preparation.

Thinking of this, he came to the edge of the workbench and took out lead blocks, bullet molds, as well as pliers, a heating furnace, and other tools.

Gun shops in this era often sell bullet molds together to make it convenient for customers to make their own bullets.

They are covered all over with three-dimensional black symbolic signs and evil patterns, constantly radiating a terrible sense of ominousness.

"If I use my 'Light Shepherd' ability to enchant them, the effect won't last more than a few hours... To extend the duration, I must consume Spirit Material."

Aaron performed a Meditation facing the sun, immediately becoming full of vigor, and after changing his clothes, he walked down the stairs.

The next moment, Aaron's own call echoed in his ears.

Aaron was slightly expectant.

Aaron looked at the mold and muttered to himself, then immediately opened the suitcase and took out the Spirit Material traded by the 'Hound' yesterday.

Although the influence of the 【Black Sun】 takes up the lion's share, raising too many Primordial Substance levels in one go is also one of the important reasons for madness!

This allows him to ignore all kinds of barriers; as long as the resources are sufficient, he can ascend continuously in a short time without any sequelae!

And only by becoming a 'Maker' and obtaining suitable materials does Aaron have the confidence to craft true self-defense items, enhance his own combat power, and gain a little bit of security.

At the same time, the followers of the 'Spirit of Falsehood' can also achieve this.

Aaron closed the door and looked at the location of the Sothoth Mausoleum marked on the map.

Aaron picked up a pitch-black bullet, and his skin actually felt bursts of stinging pain and pollution.

After becoming a 'Light Bearer', he can undoubtedly become a secular master craftsman just by learning casually.

The next moment, the Ritual directly guided them, turning them into two torrents that entered different bullets.

This was intentional on his part, utilizing the pollution carried within the Spirit Material by forcing it into the other half of the bullets to create 'Filthy Bullets'!

"This kind of bullet head is powerful; it is specifically used to deal with Extraordinary. Even if they don't die from one shot, they will be polluted by the evil inside. A normal person will turn into a mental patient in one shot... However, it is less effective against real lunatics and the mentally ill..."

After the Ritual ended, Aaron's Spirit Body returned, and he opened his eyes to see that the set of bullets in the Ritual had turned into two different appearances.

The High Priest can be said to have ascended in a relatively orthodox way; although occasionally crazy, he still retains some sanity.

And when he was at the shooting club, Aaron came into contact with this craft.

Excellent Craftsmen who reach this step are enthusiastically recruited and accepted by any organization, and their treatment is very generous.

"However, the most powerful and lethal means are still missing..."

And Aaron does not need to worry about this problem!

Aaron stuffed food into his mouth quickly while reading the newspaper.

"As for the other kind..."

He can use the ability of the 'Spirit of Falsehood' to completely purify himself and solve the negative effects brought about by absorbing Spirituality.

A piece of material resembling a tile exploded into powder, revealing a tiny bit of firefly-like radiance, accompanied by dense, black, illusory insects.

In the end, he obtained thirty 'Radiant Bullets' and twenty 'Filthy Bullets', placing them one by one into a specially made magazine.

At this moment, he can even make bullets with extraordinary effects!

'Even if one becomes an Extraordinary, one still has to eat... Unless one has become a Non-human Existence, perhaps human needs will become almost non-existent?'

"The 'Light Shepherd' of the Second Primordial Substance 【Stability】 can herd light, process simple Spirit Material, and create Magical Items with a time limit."

Aaron nodded, picked up another set of bullet blanks and Spirit Material, and began to do the same...

Finding no news worth paying attention to, he gave a casual instruction that he was going to rest for the morning and not to disturb him, then returned to his room.

This is also the confidence that Liliyat Doren has to look forward to higher ranks.

He responded to this Prayer, his Spirit Body instantly left his body, stirred the Secret Source Power, and began to purify these polluted Spirit Materials.

Aaron looked at the last set of bullet blanks and took out the replica of the Green Forest Ring of Power obtained from Liliyat, which had an Evil Spirit's curse attached to it!

After the same Ritual, he obtained six pitch-black bullets.

"The Absolutely Neutral Existence lingering behind the multiple veils!"

"Very good, one type is 'Radiant Bullet', which has an outstanding effect on evil creatures and Spirit Bodies, and is only slightly better than ordinary bullets against Extraordinary; the effect can last for about a month..."

"The Spirit of Falsehood, the Absolutely Neutral Existence, the Silent Observer lingering in the unknown!"

"The 'Light Bearer' who opens the First Primordial Substance 【Cornerstone】 can identify physical properties and process ordinary materials..."

Next, Aaron skillfully prepared gunpowder, melted lead blocks, copper blocks... and produced bullet blanks one by one.

He had long since checked them, and there were no hidden problems inside these materials.

"Young Master!"

An inexplicable power surged out, and the items in the Ritual floated up.

Aaron had also seen examples of this, which were the 'Beasts of Darkness' of the Black Sun Cult.

Inside the dining room, Sylvia was wearing a black and white maid outfit and had already prepared breakfast.

Only Sylvia remained, looking at the young master's back in confusion, her gaze filled with a hint of worry...

As for those "Beasts of Darkness" forcibly promoted by the 【Black Sun】, most of the time they were no different from real wild beasts, crazily waging war in all directions.

Then, he arranged a piece of Spirit Material, placed it in the corresponding position with a set of bullet blanks, and began to set up the Ritual, chanting his own honorific name:

"The Creator above the Creator!"

Some bullets inexplicably became sacred, overflowing with Light, while others became dark and deep black, carrying a sense of evil.

"The 'Maker' of the Third Primordial Substance 【Sublimation】, whose ability has undergone a qualitative change, can create permanent Magical Items, or rather, Strange Objects!"

"Evil Spirit Curse Bullets, those hit immediately suffer the curse of a high-level Evil Spirit, and the kind that erupts instantly..."

Aaron nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad, the power is close to a strike from a Non-human Existence, barely counts as a trump card..."
