Blood Assimilation

Chapter 303 - 303 Dumbfounded

303 Dumbfounded

The main reason why he chose the aggressive method to collect information was that he knew that if his main self eventually made a connection with him, he would undoubtedly find out about his actions. At that time, he might be able to find a way to exploit the information he retained to better their circumstances.

Regardless of whether his main self would end up exploiting the information or not, it did not matter to him. He just believed that it was better to know a plausible enemy rather than remain in the dark regarding their backgrounds. Incarnation Randy believed this wholeheartedly for some reason.

For that reason, he chose the most efficient course of action in order to quickly expand his overall knowledge and understanding of Acruxia.

Most importantly, he wanted to save himself some time to continue his tour around the city, hence the aggressive approach. Although he still spent some time getting the information he needed, he felt that it was still better than him blindly following the two Holy Knights.

After all, if he never had a feasible plan to acquire the information he needed, he would have spent days just obtaining a fraction of the information he had acquired.



As soon as Incarnation Randy left the pub, he made his way out of Church Street in search of an Inn, where he would stay for the night. This was because Randy hadn’t settled down in the city before departing. As a result, he, Incarnation Randy, needed to find a place to stay now that he was alone and out of touch with Gutz. Furthermore, Gutz was unaware that he had returned.

As he strode away from the pub, he made sure to browse through the clusters of information he had gathered from the two Holy Knights, with the aim of organizing them. However, shortly after, his mind began buzzing as he tried to sort through them.

He immediately gave up when he realized he didn’t like the feeling of his thoughts being overwhelmed with unnecessary information. As a solution, he shifted all the information he gathered to the back of his head.


.....

Personally, while he didn’t desire the collection of information he gathered, he still felt deep down that he needed them. To be more accurate, rather than him needing the information, it was more appropriate to say that his main self might benefit from them. Therefore, he gathered them.

As for whether the information he gathered would prove to be useful or not, he didn’t care about it. Instead, he cared about having fun in the Imperial City now that he had gotten the current issue out of the way. He felt regretful that he had to waste his time accompanying those Holy Knights, as he now had less time to tour the city.

Naturally, he didn’t forget the reason why he came out. Even though he thought he had wasted his time on pointless information gathering, he didn’t mind it anymore as there was still some time left before it became midnight.

With that realization, he immediately accelerated his walking steps.

Incarnation Randy steadily walked away, his lonely figure and shadow quickly disappearing into the shrouds of the night.



A few minutes later.

Incarnation Randy found himself standing at the entrance of an alley. He suddenly recalled the intense and close-call battle with that mysterious woman. Afterward, Incarnation Randy appeared slightly mesmerized.

He stood at the entrance of the alley with a dazed expression and with various thoughts coursing through his mind. After a few moments, he came back to his senses and smiled in a mysterious, incomprehensible way.
Moments later, he turned away from the alley. Then, he leisurely continued his stroll through the city, experiencing many things and places that his main body might have ignored due to his cautious character.

Incarnation Randy decided that, although his main self might have chosen to remain cautious, he, the subsidiary self, would do the complete opposite. He would bravely venture into the city. In place of his main body, he would view the various parts of the Imperial City with his own eyes. With that in mind, he postponed his intention to find an inn for later.

With many thoughts coursing through his mind, Incarnation Randy picked a random direction at an intersection and strode away once again.

Before he visited Church Street, he visited Market Street, Residential Street, and other relevant locations along the way.

At some point, he arrived at a gambling section located in the center of Entertainment Street. Incarnation Randy wanted to experience new adventures in place of his main self, who was more concerned about safety above all else. Therefore, he chose to visit the casino.

Threading lightly out of caution was just not his style of doing things. Thus, he decided to do the things that ‘they’ subconsciously thought of but repressed.

With that thought in mind, Incarnation Randy did not hesitate and boldly walked into an establishment that was dedicated to gambling. Although there are many risks when visiting establishments such as gambling houses, he was not worried about those possible risks. Instead, he was excited. Furthermore, he was confident in his own strength to defend and protect himself.



Meanwhile.

Inside a dimension.

The Safe Room.

Randy had successfully created his second incarnation without any unnatural interference with the five elements, as well as no mistakes during the construction process of the incarnated body. Exhilarated by his flawless creation, after covering the naked body of the incarnation, he immediately mobilized his psionic energy inside his [Mental Seed] to replicate his consciousness.

He then transferred the replicated consciousness that embodied his existence into the incarnated body. Although he transferred the replicated consciousness successfully without any problem, the assimilation process of consciousness and body would still take a few moments.

At this point, he saw a system notification flashing across his vision. This was a notification from his personal system. Randy briefly read the contents and was surprised to find out that his incarnation had attempted to contact him, but failed to reach him.

Randy asked his system the reason, only to be told that he was currently blocked from outside interference. The reason was the Safe Room’s isolation feature, as it was in a different dimension. However, he was told by the system that he could send information to the outside world with its help.

Rest assured, Randy decided to check on his Incarnation to find out the reason why his incarnation attempted to contact him. At the same time, he could check the progress of his Incarnation’s assigned mission.

He successfully managed to link his consciousness with his incarnation through the telepathic link developed between them when he injected his consciousness into his incarnation.

A few seconds later, Randy was dumbfounded by the stream of memories and emotions he received from his incarnation.

‘What the hell did he do…?’

Randy scowled as he scanned through the memories one by one without missing out on any relevant details. The more he learned about what his incarnation had done, the more dumbfounded and shocked he became.

Randy immediately began to regret his decision to let his incarnation go back to Imperial City. Perhaps he should have waited to create a flawless incarnation and then sent that incarnation back to the city. However, it was already too late to regret his hasty decision.

As he further scanned through the memories with an appalled expression, he was suddenly surprised by certain actions committed by his incarnation. Surprisingly, his incarnation was not completely unbridled. It still retained part of his personality, even if it was subtle.



Elsewhere.

Inside a casino.

At this point, two people, an old man and a young man, were sitting behind a table. Playing cards were strewn on the table in front of them. The atmosphere and tension surrounding the table was intense with no one uttering a single word.

At this moment, the young man, who was actually Incarnation Randy, placed the cards in his hand on the table and then said with a smile: “It’s my win. You lost once again.”

The old man disagreed with the outcome: “Little brat! You cheated!”

“How come I cheated again?”

Incarnation Randy frown with displeasure and said: “Don’t be unreasonable, old man! This is the third time you have said that I cheated after the game. I even had these girls over here reshuffle the cards a few times for us to get rid of your doubts, and yet you’re still saying the same thing?!”

“So what?!”

The old man insisted: “I said you cheated, so you cheated! You must’ve bribed those girls beforehand to scam and steal my money! I’ve never lost a game to anyone since this particular game was introduced in the Imperial City!”

“What nonsense!”

Incarnation Randy was annoyed and scornfully said: “Are you kidding me right now? Just because you’ve never lost to anyone yet doesn’t mean you’re invincible! You just never met a decent opponent!”

The old man then said: “If you say you didn’t cheat, then why are they clinging to you like that? Aren’t you in cahoots with them?!”

“What? Who? This… Right.”

Incarnation Randy looked to his left and right, and then he suddenly realized the crux of the problem.

“Please take your hands off me!”

He immediately pushed away the two casino girls that had been clinging to him all this time.

After having consecutively won a few different gambling games since entering the establishment, he was suddenly approached by these two casino girls.

The two unsuspecting casino girls fell helplessly to the floor from his strong push. When they realized what had happened, their faces were filled with disbelief.

The two casino girls looked about his age and had been following him the whole time. Despite his stern warnings, as though they were unafraid of him, they kept following him, occasionally touching him all over.
