Damon then asked Kate and Ellora to help the three with their new race and their new bodies. He was curious about what boosts they received, but he decided to look at all those details later. For now, he had more important things to attend to.
Damon did not linger around much and quickly equipped the mask before opening up a Blood Gate straight to the outskirts of Niera City. This would have been impossible before, but thanks to all the vampiric blood he had consumed, his Blood Gate skill had been upgraded a few times.
The upgraded skill was able to shuttle him between the two continents, crossing the vast ocean without any issue. Damon had a feeling that he was merely a few upgrades away from teleporting between entirely different worlds, but those would take a while to achieve. For now, he was very much satisfied with this progress.
Once he was on the outskirts of Niera City, the first thing Damon checked was his connection to the blood avatar. Shockingly, the blood avatar was still able to exist, and he was also able to maintain a connection with it without any effort.
There was some drain on his mental energy, but it was nothing of concern. Damon then proceeded to check if the blood avatar could still absorb blood essence and extract skills, affinities, and stars from the consumption.
Once again, there were no issues with the process. Lastly, he tested out some skills, and that was fine as well. All in all, with or without him, the blood avatar was good to go and farm for him.
Damon grinned. This was a huge deal. Now the amount of time he had was essentially doubled. With this, his progress would once again explode exponentially. He could achieve many more things in the little time he had.
Time had always been his greatest limitation. No matter how talented or ruthless he was, there were only so many hours in a day, only so many places he could be at once. That constraint was gone now.
While one of him walked the Light-faction continent wearing the Nameless King’s mask, the other was grinding, killing, evolving, and harvesting power elsewhere. This was perfect.
Without wasting time, Damon immediately shapeshifted into a random no-name player. He then dashed towards the nearest Light Faction city at top speed. It was time to test out other things and see just how effective this mask really was.
One of the closest light faction cities was Aurelion.
Its white walls rose from the plains, layered with defensive arrays, watchtowers, and radiant banners that fluttered in the wind. The city was usually not heavily patrolled, but considering everything that had happened recently, all thanks to none other than Damon, the city was full of guards.
Despite that, Damon was able to easily cross the big gates and step into the city without any issue. No one bothered to give him a second glance.
"...Beautiful," Damon murmured.
