SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 775

Chapter 775: Got to catch them all

Damon awkwardly cleared his throat as he saw the ridiculous scene in front of him. He had only just now heard how beings who carried his bloodline had high chances of becoming mindless monsters, and the thing in front of him... was just that. Except very, very pitiful.

It was a lizard of sorts, but plump and round in the middle, and the damn thing was stuck in the bottom of a big chasm, repeatedly trying to climb its way out.

Damon awkwardly cleared his throat as he took in the absurd sight below. The chasm was steep, jagged, and far too deep for something like that to ever climb out of. And yet... it kept trying.

The lizard, if it could even be called that, was a tragic contradiction. Its limbs were too small for its swollen, rounded body, its claws scratching uselessly against the stone as it pushed upward with all the determination of a creature that simply didn’t know when to stop.

It slipped and tumbled, landing with a soft, pathetic thud. Then immediately started climbing again.

Damon stared for a few seconds longer than necessary. The lizard finally noticed him. It froze mid-scramble, its tiny head slowly tilting upward. Its eyes, dull, unfocused, yet faintly tinged with crimson, locked onto Damon.

For a moment, nothing happened. Then, it wagged its tail excitedly.

Damon blinked. "...it’s wagging its tail."

Little Red sounded deeply uncomfortable. "It seems... happy to see you."

The lizard let out a strange noise, somewhere between a squeak and a growl, and tried to climb faster. Its short limbs flailed wildly, its entire body jiggling with effort. It slipped again. Tumbled again. Thud.

Then it looked up at Damon again and wagged its tail.

Damon exhaled slowly. "Right. Sorry, bud, I am not exactly a lizard person." He stepped forward and vanished, reappearing at the bottom of the chasm. The lizard froze the moment he got close. However, Damon did not kill it instantly.

There was no need for him to kill it immediately. It was a small, harmless beast he could completely control. If he killed it and integrated the bloodline fragment with his, then his bloodline would become stronger, and he might show up on the radar.

But if he did not kill it, then he could save it as a surprise bonus for later. So he bent down and picked it up instead.

The lizard struggled in his hand. This little reptile probably did not carry anything heaven breaking. Damon was pretty sure its bloodline fragment was another stability piece. He didn’t exactly count on it but something was better than nothing. He examined it for a while when surprisingly even a new notification popped up.

[Ding! You have acquired a new type of poison]

[Ding! You have made small progress in the third cycle of the Nine Million Poison Body Refining Technique]

"Heh. Interesting. You have got a cool new poison on your skin. I touched you only for a second, and you managed to poison me. Good boy. You might have grown into something incredible if not for this big pit, huh. Well, life happens, buddy. We lose some, and we win some."
