Reborn: Rise of the Greatest Summoner

"Inject them with the Adrenaline 0-PG13 shots".

"Yes, your Excellency".

A few minutes later, the screams followed…

"Ahhhh….!!!"

"Wagugaga…!!!"

"F*ck your Ancestors!!!"

"F*ck your Lineage and Generations…, Ahhh…!!!"

"Please…, please spare my life, I have a family…"

"Ahh…!"

Boom!

Multiple bodies exploded into a bloody mess in this research lab.

Instead of laughing maniacally which was characteristic of him, this time, a gloomy frown engulfed Clown's face as he looked at the results of his latest experiments and the data that was being displayed on the computer.

"How…?" He asked in a puzzled tone as his frown deepened.

After confirming yesterday after his experiment with Legolas that humans could naturally survive the rigors of Giant rune implantation, he immediately kickstarted an ambitious plan of his that he had envisioned long ago.

If he realized this ambition, he would be able to implant Giant runes into every single living human in Planet Darvis, essentially fulfilling his longtime dream.

During the old era, Newton Barnes mostly known by the old generation as the Chemical Demon built a name for himself through his research results.

At first, Newton became a chemist to make his powers as an Elementalist more lethal and become the strongest superhuman in the Planet.

After developing his strength to a peak though, he diverted his attention to improving human life. Through most of the chemical products and tonics that he made, humans increased their compatibility with super energy.

This contributed a lot in the golden age of superhumans that followed.

With this, Newton became a legend of Planet Darvis.

Clown wanted to emulate his master, not just emulate but exceed him.

He believed that if he could integrate Giant runes in every human, he would essentially contribute to the evolution of the human race which would automatically make him the greatest legend that ever-graced Planet Darvis.

The only problem now was that his plan was not working.

He looked at the bloody mess that were left of his test subjects with a troubled look on his face. "What went wrong…?"

"Where did I go wrong?"

"What am I missing?"

After thinking for minutes, he turned to his assistants with a crazy look on his face and ordered. "Bring in more test subjects!"

"Yes, your Excellency".

Just a few minutes later, screams filled this research lab as they echoed across this hideout loudly. What followed after the screams were explosions and bloody pieces of flesh flying everywhere like slingshots.

This lab became tainted with a deep aura of death, Clown was used to it though so he didn't react much to it.

He still frowned due to what he discovered. "Incompatibility…"

"My body suppressed the incompatibility complications because of my Grade C energy, what of Legolas?"

His eyes narrowed. "I thought he finally accepted it because I got it right".

"Is Legolas the only test subject that is below the Grade C realm that can accept Giant rune implantation?"

"Does this mean I can't fulfill my plan?" He clenched his fists.

"No!" His eyes flashed crazily. "There has to be a way!"

"Bring me Legolas!"

"Yes, your Excellency".

[Complete Merging process with Magic Runes still in progress…]

[Current Progress Rate: 18%!]

Warning! You are receiving damage every second due to acclimatization process with Magic Runes!

Warning! Your Summoner Energy is draining every second due to acclimatization process with Magic Runes!

…

You have been protected from immediate death by the lethal dark energy by your organic connection with the Nightmare Beast- Predator!

Due to the extremely high concentration of Dark Abyss energy, Predator's gains are partially transferring to you through your organic connection!

You have received a temporary partial Darkness Regeneration passive ability!

[Regeneration Rate: 10 HP every second and 5 MP every second!]

----

This regeneration rate was incredible and it was only possible due to Predator, Legolas turned to look at his beast who was going through an incredible state at the moment due to the extreme concentration of dark energy.

The same way that Planet Darvis had connections to the Elemental plane, the beast plane, and the underworld, it also had connections to the Abyss.

This hole in the Hellfire Mountains was one of these rare locations that connected to the Abyss, some of the Abyss' dark energy leaked here.

Originally, few survived being exposed to this potent dark energy.

Legolas was not sure if his captors knew about the unique abilities of Nightmare Beasts since Elementalists were predominant in the Clown Society.

Exposed to the potent dark energy, Predator entered a rapid growth state. His growth was so rapid that he had to be covered by a black crystalline cocoon and inside this cocoon, Legolas observed his beast growing every second.

In just the past day since being dumped here, Predator already leveled up twice from the potent dark energy seeping into his body.

It would not take much longer before Predator evolved to the Grade C realm.

Legolas felt mixed feelings. 'Can I call this a blessing or a curse…?'

'Definitely a blessing!'

Predator's opportunity was the only reason why he was not yet dead. Through the regeneration that he got through his connection with his beast, he was able to offset the acclimatization process to the Magic Rune.

Due to this crazy opportunity that fell into his hand, Legolas's brain already became active as a lot of plans went through his head but he mostly shelved them for the moment as something occupied his mind.

'How did the virtual interface deal with my compatibility issue?'

He still vividly remembered the moment, one moment he thought he was going to die and the next, after recalibrating, everything changed.

Legolas narrowed his eyes. 'This recalibration, I also remembered it's intervention when I was using my Gacha Pull chances'.

'It helped me get Lucky through the Gacha Pull'.

He looked down at his hands. 'Is this recalibration helping me?'

'Was it made by the so-called God of Games?' Though it was already a long time ago, he still didn't forget the letter from the God of Games.

Though Legolas was extremely curious to know the truth now, the more he asked, the more it became apparent to him that he could not know it now.

He looked at himself. 'I need to get stronger to know the truth behind these mysteries'. As he spoke, his curiosity was already being aroused again.

Thud!

While he soliloquized, his captors suddenly jumped into the hole with special suits that protected them from the dark energy.

As soon as Legolas noticed them, he moved fast to kick Predator's cocoon which rolled deeper into the hole out of their sight.

"He's still alive". This psychopath's tone betrayed his surprise.

"Grab him and tie him up!"

"We're moving up!"

Legolas did not resist, he let them carry him up. All he did was recite some mental mantras that he remembered to firm his will against the coming suffering.

He knew that he was about to undergo another round of experiments.

This was the price to pay as a captive of a crazy scientist.

Legolas distracted himself even as Clown started observing his body with pure amazement at how much he adapted to the Magic Runes.

'What will happen after the acclimatization process ends?'

'At this rate, Predator would evolve soon, I need to plan ahead…'

He barely finished when the crazy scientist started.

Legolas bit his tongue, tearing his lips as blood flowed. "Agggrhh…!!!"

"F*ck…!"

Amid his screams, one word filled his mind. 'Enjoy it while it lasts'.

'My retaliation won't be long now…'

'I'm gonna f*ck you behind so hard you won't live to remember it!'

…

While her father was tortured inside a secret research lab, faraway from Planet Darvis, a certain Fox felt her father's distress.

'Dad…'
