Chapter 570: *Doing his own experiments*
Kelan, who always looked at things as a whole, had come to the same conclusion as the Shapeshifters of their world, and so he asked Caleb, "Do you think there is going to be another wave of Legendary creatures, or after this they will leave?"
Caleb replied without hesitation, "Given the number of Werewolves in these centers, I’m sure we will have to deal with another wave of creatures. First, because it will allow them to test our limits, and they probably imagine that we will make more mistakes if we are tired. Secondly, they surely think that we will end up being overwhelmed by their numbers... Too bad for them; this strategy is doomed to fail with us. If it weren’t for their numbers, these Legendary creatures wouldn’t stand a chance against us, and since we can all use our Stage 2 at will, even Erik now, we don’t feel any fatigue."
Caleb glanced at him after getting rid of three Phoenixes who had gotten a little too close to Kelan, and he asked him curiously, "Why? What are you thinking?"
Kelan then smiled and said, "Don’t you find it strange that Elias and Miguel asked us all to come for this battle? The Demons and the Shapeshifters didn’t even have to come; you are right, the Warrior Spirits could have handled this battle alone, without any outside help."
Caleb then followed Kelan’s gaze and saw that he was watching the Shapeshifters with interest, so he said, "Elias and Miguel probably wanted them to take part in a real battle so that they could realize the true power of our enemies and gain some experience."
Kelan then told him, "Probably... Let’s go then; let’s go help them!"
Caleb then held him by the arm as Kelan was really heading towards the Shapeshifters, and he said to him, "No need; other Warrior Spirits are already taking care of them."
But Kelan then shook his head and told him, "It is not enough; you still don’t understand... We are going to help them evolve into Divine creatures by providing them with as many Legendary creatures ready to kill as possible, so they can gain the maximum amount of experience points. This way, the more levels they climb, the better their chances of becoming Divine creatures."
Caleb had finally understood; so Elias and Miguel planned to help the Shapeshifters evolve by bringing them into this battle, and it might just work... For a Legendary creature to become a Divine creature, it was not enough for them to reach level 200 to evolve.
These Legendary creatures must, above all, have a goal to evolve. It could be the desire to protect the people they loved, like what happened with Axel and Liam when they saw Kevin and Ian in danger.
Alternatively, it could be like Ian, who evolved naturally when he first used his demonic aura while still in his Drakonit form, or it could simply come from the desire to get stronger, like Raven.
Raven’s evolution took place because he wanted to protect all the Shapeshifters of their world, and he felt he was lacking the power to do so; it was his desire to become even stronger that eventually triggered his evolution.
So Kelan was right to think that they could help them evolve, because the more the Shapeshifters fought against these Legendary creatures and witnessed the power of the Knights of Darkness, the more they would want to become stronger, which could trigger their evolution.
So now that Caleb had made up his mind to help the Shapeshifters, they were fighting alongside them, and Caleb, along with other Warrior Spirits, was sending the Shapeshifters Legendary creatures already on the verge of dying.
On a normal day, the Shapeshifters would have gotten mad at them for doing such a thing, but as they all wanted to gain experience points, they didn’t reject their goodwill, and so they all worked together.
Nolan, as for him, was staying with Blaise and Phil, who were fighting the Knights of Darkness, even though he shouldn’t be there because he couldn’t use the Evil Divine element nor the Angelic one.
However, having promised his new stepfather that he would be careful and remain under their protection, he felt safe with them and fought to his heart’s content.
As Phil and Blaise was watching him fight, they couldn’t help but feel a sense of curiosity about whether Nolan could truly condense the energy of the Evil Divine element or not.
And so, as Nolan really wanted to try to condense it the same way he did with the Angelic Divine element, and also because this battle was the perfect opportunity for him to try it, as the Knights of Darkness were fighting using almost only the black particles, he decided to contact Miguel with the communication stones.
Then Nolan after getting Miguel permission, who wasn’t far from them, while everyone else was fighting, was conducting his own experiments to increase the power of his special ability.
Since he had to learn how to use his abilities while fighting, it was also an excellent training opportunity, even if Phil was constantly at his side to protect him, which, by the way, made his job much easier. Indeed, thanks to him, he could really focus on training his ability.
Nolan then opened his special energy reserve, which made his eyes turn silver, and an aura of the same color appeared around him, because right now, he still needed his perception points to be multiplied by five to be able to connect to a powerful source of energy.
However, his first attempts were all failures... He could connect to the energy of the Knights of Darkness, but he wasn’t able to capture this energy and turn it into a ball of condensed energy as he did with Axel or Raven.
As beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, Phil told him, "Take it easy, kid; don’t exhaust yourself. No one expects you to succeed on the first try, so keep trying, but without putting pressure on yourself. Blaise and I have your back, so you don’t have to worry."
