"Not bad. Maybe I should eat them, but zombie with wings wouldn't be bad. Hmm." Victor wasted no time and started stuffing this face with bat meat. The dungeon bats weren't the size of normal bats, as they were a bit larger in size, but nothing too big.

After getting enough evolution material, Victor looked at the remaining bats that littered the floor. He didn't experience much of their attacks, so he wasn't sure of their abilities and strength, but at least their level was around 4 and 5, higher than the zombies he had encountered so far.

Using his corpse manipulation skill, he raised five dead dungeon bats and added them to his ranks. "No matter how I look at this, it's pure necromancy." Victor said as he watched the dead monsters twitch before they began flying like normal.

The necromancer class was Victor's best whenever he played and RPG game back when he was 'alive' on earth. It was also his most proficient class, so he was very knowledgeable about it. If he wasn't mistaken, the newly raised bats would have some necrotic skills added to their pre-existing skills. Skills like rot bite might be added, and they would enjoy all the benefits of being undead, and also suffer all the weaknesses.

(A/N: Though I haven't spoken about this, I wanted to take some space to shed some light on this, and I will also be adding it as an ability, something that will be introduced in this chapter, to better clarify things.)

All undead creatures have a set of weakness and benefits their undead body grants them, this, Victor was clear of. Up until now however, he hadn't been able to test these knowledge he had from his previous life. "System, I've been wondering. What are the benefits I enjoy as an undead. You know, things that are specific to my race and stuff." Victor asked.

[What you are talking about is the Innate Ability one possesses relative to their race and bloodline]

"Yes."

[It is displayed in the Innate ability section of your status screen that has just been added. Please, check it out]

"..." Victor was speechless. He knew quite well that his system didn't have a mind of its own and was best an advanced AI, so shouting was useless. He then mentally willed open the status screen from his thoughts.

"Damn, just like I expected." Victor said after going over the details of his innate ability.

After looking at these, Victor wasn't all too grim, as he knew something. The higher the rank of the undead, the more amazing effects they had, and while some weaknesses increased, many reduced or completely vanished. The thing now was that he didn't know the rules of this world he was in now. As to which effects would drop or strengthen, he didn't know, but again, there was hope.

"This fire damage part, if I were to for example evolve the fiery tailed wolf and absorb its effects, won't that nullify this weakness? The model I saw had fire burning all over its body too. System, am I right?"

[Yes. Through evolution, weakness such as the weakness to holy/light magic can be nullified, same with the fire weakness]

[Also keep in mind that new weakness will be acquired. So, it is advisable to first raise the rank of a specific bloodline by evolving it independently before supplementing it]

The last thing the system said picked Victors interest, so he made a mental note. "This means I can't just recklessly evolve into new forms, I have to be careful. I know of a few annoying weaknesses that I wouldn't want to ever have." Victor said.

[With the use of the system, the risk of gaining weaknesses from other monsters will be greatly reduced. All you have to do is first raise the rank of a specific bloodline by evolving it independently before supplementing it]

"You mean like I'm doing with my zombie form right now?"

[Yes]

[Please note, not all bloodlines can be upgraded]

"Figures. Something like this is usually rare, so I wasn't expecting it to be for all creatures o begin with."

It was also at this moment that Victor realized that the way his evolution system worked was just a super chimera building sim. From what he knew of the system, different abilities and aspects of other monsters would be taken from other monsters and added to his pre-existing form to create a more powerful and perfect being. This was also why he was currently building the perfect base.

"I feel more and more like a science experiment as time goes by. Heh."

After feasting on the bats, the number of evolution materials he had was now...

..

Evolution Material:

-Fiery Tailed Wolf – 1000

-Zombie – 6000/100000 (can be further evolved)

-Dungeon Bat - 5000

..

"Seems this one can't be evolved further."

[System analysis complete. Dungeon Bat has been analyzed]

"Hmm. It kind of sucks that I don't have the map of this floor and have to ke..."

Before Victor could complete his sentence, he remembered something crucial. He rushed and called up his system window, and as soon as he assessed the inventory, the realized just how detrimental having an intelligence of two was. Inside his inventory sat the map device that he had taken from the the adventurers he killed.

"Fuck this! Thank god I've increased my intelligence, but still the damage had been done. This was here the whole time, and I didn't even know. I didn't remember."

A smile immediately appeared on Victors face as he switched the device on. The hologram that appeared clearly showed the entire floor two map layout, and also, as clear indication of where the door to the next floor was.

"Now, all I have to do is get some evolution materials from this floor, then I can advance smoothly."
