Last Egg: Reincarnated as a Dragon in a Game-Novel

Chapter 467  Collapsed Starsystem Doomlord, part 1/3

Amidst the whistling and howling winds, a large circle of ice gleamed under the rays of sunlight passing through the clouds. Beneath the ice, a black and dark fissure opened in the frozen soil, leading deep into the abyss.

The bright purple and golden glow shone on its bottom, pulsing as if following some heartbeat, passing through the clouds of shimmering stardust. The reality itself was warped with the light refracting and lensing around a black hole, creating psychedelic optical illusions.

A majestic dragon lay on its bottom, coiled up with its tail wrapped around its body.

Its mesmerizing pitch-black armor seemed to absorb and attract all surrounding light, leaving eternal darkness in its wake. The light warped and bent around it as it was sucked and frozen into the black armor.

However, the darkness was pierced by radiant fissures in his armor that emitted a brilliant purple glow and streams of plasma and solar corona that seemed to defy the gravity of his armor and danced and weaved around the dragon's majestic form.

The interplay of the solar inferno and the icy black frost created a mesmerizing display akin to a cosmic dance. Swirling particles of stardust enveloped the dragon, forming a nebula of shimmering purple, red, blue, golden, and black hues as if it were a celestial constellation. Within this nebula, golden lightning flashed and crackled, adding an electrifying element to cosmic chaos.

The small rocks of ice, stone, and metal orbited and floated through the chaos, like meteors and comets through a star system.

The pair of ethereal wings rested, folded on his back, seemingly woven of the colorful star nebula, with lightning striking chaotically in them. The massive skeleton-like structure of pitch darkness supported them, counterbalancing the nebula's brightness.

Half of his horns shone with a light that defied the gravity of his armor, shining as bright as if forged of purple and golden starlight, mixing with the radiance of his claws and tail weapon. At the same time, the second half was unnaturally black, warping the space around them, like a black hole shaped into horns.

Vesuvius stirred, and his eyelids went open—the light exploding out as if he had stars embedded in his eye sockets.

The wave of power and energy flooded all his senses.

He could feel the invisible tetters of the connection with the planet below him. To his shock, he could even sense everything in the vast radius. Almost the entire north pole was under his grasp as his domain took root, growing throughout the planet's soil and stone around him like a seed sprouting roots.

'How far can it expand? Will I eventually be able to sense the entire planet?'

Another, even stronger connection went up, like a river of pure star energy and warmth that nourished his body and soul.

Its origin was far, very far, yet he could feel that if he willed, he could cross the distance in a single step.

'Ohh, my, why do I feel like I evolved into something terrible?'

(AN: At last, I took this opportunity to clear the status as it was moving in the direction of an over-bloated mess.)

You have evolved into: Collapsed Starsystem Doomlord.

Due to the presence of gravity affinity following abilities were compressed and fused:

1.

Fused abilities:

Innate Draconic Mana Body (LV 8)

Innate Caster's Neural System (LV 8)

Apocalypse Dragon Battlelord's Phase-shifted Muscle (LV 1)

Space Condensed Draconic Body (LV 1)

(New) Overloaded Nuclear Mana Reactor Body (LV 10) --> Nuclear Star Body (LV 10)

Resulting Ability: Mana Blackhole Body (LV 28)

Description: The mana and the draconic, space-element-saturated flesh were compressed and warped by extreme gravitational forces, creating outlandish flesh with even more incomprehensible properties.

The space itself collapsed and crumpled, allowing the nerve impulses, mana, and blood to instantly travel across it, reaching the destination with zero delay.

The internal dimensions are so wrong that it is impossible to hit the same organ twice, even when hitting the exact same spot under the exact same angle.

All the internal organs, the casting neuron clusters, hearts, and even brains were lost in the space singularity, making it almost impossible to hit them, turning even the most accurate attacks into a game of luck with bad odds.

The overlapping space-warped and gravity-compressed musculature contains strength and density multiple times higher than it should, and as the space dimensions are broken, the muscles can move in unnatural ways, allowing a far larger range of movement, even across more than three axes of space.

The extreme conditions inside allow the dragon to harness and produce large amounts of mana within the confines of his body.

The increase or decrease of gravitational and space compression can manipulate the body's size.

All the effects grow stronger with weight.

AGI, STR, and END were fused into a single stat due to broken physics and properties of the dragon's body, combining the effects of the previous stats.

The new stat will be multiplied by the MAG stat after applying its own multipliers and dividing by 5000.

Its starting value will be equal to the sum of all three stats.

Just after reading the first of his new abilities, Vesuvius had to stop, his mind already trying to grasp and understand what he just read.

'No way... this is simply too extreme of a change.' Just this single ability changed so much that he had to rethink all his plans and strategies.

'So attacking me now turned into a giant lottery.' With his only weaknesses being hits to the main brain or his two hearts, he could already imagine how annoyingly hard he would be to kill.

2.

Fused abilities:

Greater Fire Core (LV MAX)

Inner Fire (Life) (LV 1)

(New) Star Heart (LV 1)

Resulting Ability: Supernova Core (LV 11)

Description: The draconic heart transformed into a miniature star-like organ. It constantly burns mana in a complex fusion reaction, constantly producing a supply of pure divine energy, more mana, and purified highly charged celestial energy.

Allows the blood pumped by it to be overcharged with pure celestial energy, turning it into a plasma-like substance transferring previously impossible amounts of energy.

All the abilities fueled by the overcharged star blood will be empowered beyond their limits and gain star properties.

+1.50 MAG multiplier

'What is even inside of my body after this? How am I even alive? No, how am I not exploding? Also, what the hell is celestial energy?' Vesuvius only got to read the second ability, and his mind was already in chaos.
