Bloodline

Finally, it landed an attack that went through its strong hide, creating three strikes on his bicep, cutting nearly ¼ into his flesh. Now all I have to do is focus on his arm.

Jacob goes for the slash on his arm, causing the wound to become larger and nearly at the halfway mark, almost tearing it apart, the hounds tear his leg apart biting off small lumps of flesh and meat.

The ape howling in pain tries to kick the hounds, but their claws are latched on his thigh keeping him grounded, Axel slashes at his leg cutting some flesh off angering the ape on a fury, Jacob jumps once more to bite down and use his vicious bite skill on his head and chomp down with full force.

Hounds go for the limbs and take him down! Axel tired and exhausted the sweat rolling down his face, Axel runs toward the ape to finish this once and for all, jumps up in the air, at that moment the ape's eyes turn red, however the hound on his right relieves this and bites harder and twist and turn his arm around, pulling it off his shoulder blade.

Axel comes down with full force with his combat knife striking his head instead of his chest, Jacob twists the ape's head and bites harder creating a cracking sound, while Axel's knife pushes through the ape's brain.

Ding! You Killed the Jade Flame Ape You gained Jade Flame pelt 1x, 2,000 EXP, 1x Flame Jade.

That's all for now [Huffing] everyone exhausted and ready to leave, but we have one last thing to do. The only reason I bothered to come here is for the bloodline.

[Ding! Jade Flame Ape Bloodline Obtained] Axel's blood feels like it's burning him from the inside, His muscles are expanding slowly, ripping apart and reconnecting, his blood color changing from rosy red, to the lightest blue color.

A crystal cocoon forms around Axel. After 10-15 minutes of hellish pain, Axel finally emerges from the cocoon, with his muscles looking defined to the last detail and doubled in size, with his height coming to six feet and three inches.

Standing tall and mighty above the hounds that subconsciously bow'd down before him, when we get back to the village I'll give the bloodline to everyone to further our growth, Now all of you eat the rest of the monster we don't leave nothing behind.

Axel pulls up his stats and sees what differs from before.

Health:5000/5000

My Health has improved. I've gotten more than +2000hp, and my strength and agility are going to help as much as it can in future fights. Axel closes his status and observes his body looking at the changes.

Axel notices he has more body hair around his arms, legs and chest, his hands are bigger than his face and all his body hair changes from dark black to a magma red hair.

Jacob! Come here, [Bark!] Yes master, have all of you finished, Yes, but there are five flame jades!

[Flame Jade!]: can be consumed or be granted with an element, or affinity to that element.

We'll look into more of this when we get back to the village, grab whatever is left, and let's get going.

As Axel and the group head back, Axel looks at one of the little hounds.

Race: Monster

Level:5 (540/1,000)

Health:1050/1050

Stamina:600/600

Strength:17

Intelligence:10

Agility:15

Skills: Vicious Bite

Their strength has grown from when we found them there about half the size of Jacob, and there's no saying how fast they will keep growing either.

As Axel takes each step, he leaves an imprint in the ground, adjusting to his newfound power getting control of his strength.

Adjusting his strength with each step till he can fully control himself.

They finally arrive back at the village, seeing a stockpile of sticks and rocks laying them next to each other, like a mountain.

As Axel entered the village, there was a system announcement.

[Village Announcements-Flame Jade Bloodline Detected!] Implementing fusion to Villagers.

When the Villagers and the hounds heard the message, they were already surrounded by a blue cocoon with orange and green veins pulsing all around the cocoon, Axel baffled by this sudden situational, he grabs the thunder stroke sword and practiced some swings to get the feel of the power and swing of the sword.

One hour later, with Axel having sweat between his brows flowing down his face, hears cracks and the sound of breaking, His people have finally assimilated their new bloodlines.

Howl!!!! An Earth-shaking roar carries through the valley across the mountains everything in the mountains bows down before this unfamiliar creature that had just appeared.

Everything shaking under his people's might even he was almost subjected to fall, but he implemented more strength through his veins.

After everyone was finished, the result of everyone is a little different from Axel assimilation with the bloodline himself, first everyone is about the height range of 5ft 8in (1.73 m) and 6ft 1in (1.85 m), they are not that much shorter than I am, their hair is all over their body except a few exceptional spots, their muscle are about the same size as i, other than that there's not that much of a difference between them and i.

Their strength has increased by a substantial amount, Jacob and the other hounds look as big as a tiger now, their hairs have turned to a magma red with their royal blue colors mixed creating a darker violet color.

Everyone! Gather, Now that everyone here is stronger, and we will continue to grow in strength, prepare some houses for the current villagers, and when the new villagers arrive tell them everything that they need to know, while now we need to have a source of food and water, so we need to either raise some cattle or dilute the seawater.

We have two options for raising cattle. One is the Flamodo, which is a hog type monster that has spikes down its back with poisonous tips.

The second option is the Hound Breeder, which I don't think it has any limitations on the species of hounds or the amount, so I guess we're good at that part for now. I think the best option would be to wrangle up a few of those flamodos, though.

Awe thirteen more people have arrived, uh I guess they'll obtain the bloodline when they enter the village, out of those thirteen people there's a monster, however it's just another hound and looks to be about half the size of Jacob and the other hounds, but they'll be fixed when they get done with their assimilation.

When we need to build a better fence for appropriate protection, if we want a stone wall we need a stone mason, let's check the new batch of villagers when they get done, maybe we'll find something of need.

Jacob let's go out and hunt, and if we're lucky we can find a few flamodos on the way, alright, Bark! [Yes Master!] Round up the hounds, we're going to be hunting and scouting the current territory we occupy and the limit on how far we can go without facing anything too dangerous.

We will be heading east this time around Jacob you all scout the area around us but don't go too far away to where I can't see you, I'll stay in the middle and keep going forward if you all hear me fighting, do not engage yet look around and encircle it, then aim for its legs or throat.

Now go ahead, I have my sword with me and the pistol and rifle still with me, passing through the forest, with thick trees and bushes hiding the sneakiest of monsters, I killed a few monsters here and there, nothing that's interesting enough for me to want their bloodline.

Bark! Bark! [Master!] Yes! [There are pig monsters that resemble the characteristics of the monster you want to domesticate]I'm on my way, do not attack, pin them down and wait for me there.

Ok, I'm here, Master, all five of the hounds are pinning down three of those pig monsters, alright let them up, don't keep off them, nip at their side and legs if they try to attack, keep them in line.

[Ding! The new villagers are done with their assimilation]

That's great, we can check the new villagers and start assigning jobs to have a proper village and start hunting parties to raise the level of my village and find a way to raise the rarity as well for better stats.

Still a lot of work ahead, let's keep moving!

As Axel and the hounds with their new-found cattle walk back to the village, Axel examines the flamodo and remembers that there'll be able to spew flames and their spikes are poisonous but how poisonous and does it numb you, put you to sleep, our paralyzes you, I'll have to conduct experiments on them.

Jacob! Go find me a few small monsters in the area, Yes master, as just as Axel said that Jacob was gone in a flash.
