Dig Up the Sun Emperor's Legacy: I Build an Invincible Undead Legion-Chapter 99: Purple Vortex

"**!@##*!"

Suddenly, an indescribable whisper exploded in his ears!

The mysterious vessel’s phantom disappeared accordingly, replaced by a terrifying creature.

A 10-foot-tall body, crimson giant shield, sharp greatsword—one could vaguely see the shadow of the Purple Thornblade Shield Guard.

On the once-strong bones, a layer of black-red flesh had grown.

On the flesh surface, purple thornblade patterns spread all the way to the depths of various dark purple vortexes.

Dark purple vortexes at the pupils, mouth, ears, heart... slowly rotated.

Especially the eye vortexes, their rotation almost at a standstill, as if not yet awakened.

Around it, a dark purple aura naturally gave off energy.

Incredibly terrifying pressure instantly crushed nearby instruments, severed limbs, and everything else into powder...

"Success!"

Carlos’s eyes lit up with joy. He was just about to step forward to examine...

Suddenly, the vortexes on this terrifying creature spun at high speed, and the horrifying dark purple aura erupted with a boom!

In an instant, pipes shattered and walls cracked in the laboratory, while sand and stone overhead began shaking violently.

"Boom!!!"

Accompanied by a terrible roar, the dark purple aura shot skyward, directly penetrating the thick sand and stone ceiling, stirring up incredible shockwaves...

Outside, under the brown-robed figure’s shocked gaze, the tall sand building actually began slowly collapsing as a terrifying dark purple light pillar covered the sky...

"Oh crap!"

Carlos quickly ordered the shield guards to raise their shields in defense...

"Boom!"

The underground chamber collapsed with a roar, and pouring sand buried them.

Fortunately, the shockwave blew away most of the sand and stone. Carlos and the shield guards weren’t buried too deep.

"Cough cough..."

Carlos and the shield guards climbed out. He shook off the sand on his body and looked ahead with eager eyes.

At this moment, the newly born retainer had pulled back its dark purple aura and stood on the sand pile, head swaying as it curiously examined its surroundings.

Carlos couldn’t wait to step forward and check this impressive retainer’s attributes and abilities.

[Unnamed Retainer: A terrifying creature born from the super-fusion of Purple Thornblade Shield Guard and Black Vortex Collector, inheriting both entities’ abilities.]

[Health: 700 (Constitution x50)]

[Strength: 20]

[Constitution: 14]

[Speed: 5]

[Skills: Purple Thornblade·Variant, Purple Thornblade Shield Tactics (1+3) Level, Dark Purple Force Field (Strength 1+2), Black Vortex (2 Completed).]

"Strength increased by 2 points, Constitution increased by 6 points, Speed increased by 2 points—a total increase of 10 points!"

Carlos couldn’t keep the joy out of his heart. This terrifying level of attribute improvement was comparable to an incredible sublimation.

"Clang clang!"

The newly born retainer, seeing its master had stopped moving, couldn’t help but tap its shield with its sword, trying to get his attention.

Carlos was somewhat surprised. This was the first time a summoned creature had acted outside of commands.

"Intelligence improvement is also pretty significant."

He reached up and patted the new retainer’s giant shield, indicating it should stay quiet while he continued examining skills.

The new retainer immediately stopped moving, like a well-behaved child, though the two vortexes in its eye sockets would occasionally change their rotation direction.

"All abilities of the original Purple Thornblade Shield Guard are inherited.

The latter two should be abilities fused from the Black Vortex Collector."

[Dark Purple Aura (Strength 1+2): The most essential greedy desires of flesh drive will to materialize, capable of causing terrifying destruction to reality.

Each completed organ increases Dark Purple Aura strength by 1.]

"The unique powerful ability of the Black Vortex Collector from the records.

The reason Psionics suffered heavy losses during repeated attempts to take it down was largely due to this unpredictable aura attack!"

Carlos had already witnessed the dark purple aura’s terrifying might moments ago.

It completely destroyed the underground chamber in an instant—truly terrifying!

He continued reading and immediately felt his mind blown.

[Black Vortex: Each black vortex within the body can fuse and plunder corresponding organs, inheriting that organ’s abilities to complete itself.

Note: Organs can be replaced at will.]

[Currently Completed: Bone, Brain]

[Bone: Source - Purple Thornblade Shield Guard skeleton.

Abilities Gained: Purple Thornblade·Variant, Purple Thornblade Shield Tactics (1+3) Level]

[Brain: Source - Brain Beast.

Abilities Gained: Vision Sharing (bound to master Carlos); Psychic Wave Amplification.]

"This... this Black Vortex ability is way too powerful!"

Even with prior expectations, Carlos’s shock remained undiminished.

Roughly estimating,

just the vortexes exposed on the retainer’s body numbered no less than thirty.

This meant it could plunder and fuse the powerful organs of thirty-plus different creatures.

Carlos couldn’t help but think of those terrifying dark mist monsters from later periods. Their organs often possessed all kinds of mind-blowing abilities.

If it could gather those creatures’ horrifying organ abilities in one body, that scene would be...

Reining in his wild imagination and calming his excited heart, Carlos’s mind returned to reality.

On the sand pile, two vortexes in the retainer’s eye sockets rotated restlessly.

Through the soul link, Carlos sensed the retainer’s incredibly strong desire to move around.

"Alright, you don’t need to stay still anymore. Go ahead and move."

"Roar!!!"

The retainer immediately responded with excitement.

It stood the giant shield upright on its back, and two pieces of flesh immediately extended from its back to connect the giant shield.

Then it reached back and inserted the greatsword into the gap between its back and the giant shield, with protruding flesh holding it in place.

This way, both its hands were freed...

Carlos crossed his arms, eyes curious about what it would do after freeing its hands.

Then... this newly born retainer crouched down and began happily and excitedly digging sand with both hands...

"..."

Carlos’s eye twitched, feeling helpless.

"Well, I shouldn’t have had any expectations about its intelligence."

The fusion materials for this retainer—whether Purple Thornblade Shield Guard #1 or the Black Vortex Collector—

neither had very high intelligence... accurately speaking, both were pretty dim.

Naturally, the fused retainer’s intelligence wouldn’t be much higher either.

"Speaking of which, though not very bright, it at least has considerable self-awareness now.

Time to give it a unique name."

Carlos watched the new retainer dig sand while thinking about what name would be suitable.

"Little Purple? Big Purple? Little Vortex? Big Vortex?"

A string of names popped up in his mind.

"Aren’t these too run-of-the-mill?"

This didn’t match Carlos’s refined taste.

"How about taking one character from each—just call it Purple Vortex?"

It sounded nice... probably, was easy to remember... definitely, and had great recognition.

Not wanting to rack his brain too hard, he decided on this one.

Carlos walked up to Purple Vortex, who was digging sand.

Purple Vortex sensed its master’s approach and lifted its head questioningly, though its hands kept digging downward...
