Vince held the crystal for a while. He then decided to let his son be reborn no matter what it takes.
Scrutinizing the crystal for a while, he swear that his other loved ones will be reborn too.
Thud!
Just as Vince was about to store the soul crystal, his cell prison suddenly opened and two viscious brawny men carrying torches dashed forward and snatched the crystal out of his hand.
"Fuck! A Profound Stone?! This trashy bastard kept a treasure for himself!" One of the men said with a sneer. He quickly examined the crystal in his hand with interest.
"NOOO!! My son!!"
Vince cried out and tried to grabbed back the soul crystal, but the other man kicked him to the side.
"Fucking noisy. You're treating a Profound stone to be your kid? Dumbass Madafaka!"
Bam!
Vince felt like a he was hit by a truck by that simple kick as he slammed in the wall. He curled to the ground in pain and was gasping for air. His bloodshot eyes stared daggers at the men.
"Oho! This bastard grew some guts!" The man said grinning as he approached Vince slowly when he stumbled something on his foot.
"What's this?"
After picking up mask, the man's interest dropped when he saw the ordinary looking mask. He was about to throw it away when he thought of something and placed the mask on his face.
Vince recalled that the mask was the treasure he received from the sign-in system. He forgot the details but he knew the mask shouldn't be ordinary.
Vince also confirmed that the world he was in was not ordinary judging by the strength of the man who kicked him down unlike the people from Earth where he came from.
'System! Please get my son back!' He cried out in his mind.
A series of notification suddenly popped in Vince' view.
(Ding! Host's request is invalid and cannot be executed. Host needs to possess the item first before storing in the storage.)
(Ding! Detecting the host is in peril situation. Searching for alternatives.)
(Ding! System suggested for the host to open the giftbox to gamble for survival.)
'Open!' Vince immediately grabbed the opportunity while the two brawny men was busying themselves.
(Ding! Opening the giftbox..)
(Ding! Congratulations for the host for obtaining 10 fruits of the Tree of Enlightenment! Automatically stored in the system storage.)
(Ding! Congratulations for the host for obtaining Tier 5 Advance Rejuvenation Elixir! Automatically stored in the system storage.)
(Ding! Congratulations for the host for obtaining an Array Scroll of a Grand Elemental Gathering Array! Automatically stored in the system storage.)
(Ding! Congratulations for the host for obtaining the Evil Sword of Myriad Slaughter! Automatically stored in the system storage.)
(Ding!....)
More than ten various treasures appeared in the storage in an instant.
Vince ignored the treasures and searched the keyword he needed the most.
Not a second later as his eyes lit up at the notification.
(Ding! Congratulations to the host for triggering the bonus special reward! Host will have a chance to request one wish!)
(Ding! Host needs to use the Wish before the sign-in restarts or else the wish chance will reset.)
"I want to become stronger! Stronger than anyone! I want to stand shoulder to shoulder with the Gods no- give me something that can surpass them. Something that can change my trashy destiny!"
Even though Vince was worried for his son, his rationale told him to calm down. He knew he should deal with power using stronger power. With the help of the system, he wants to be the strongest.
(Ding! Selecting a random solution for the host.)
(Ding! Congratulations for the host for obtaining the Unknown Grade - Unnamed Cultivation Technique made by the first firmament. Wish effect - None.)
(Ding! Transmitting an Unnamed Cultivation Technique to the host!)
Meanwhile...
The man who grabbed the mask was greatly shocked when he discovered the transformation on his body.
'I've picked up a godly treasure!' The man exclaimed in his mind. He knew there must be something more in the mask.
After recovering from the shock, the man hid the mask inside his clothes and secretly glanced at his fellow comrade who's still entranced at the crystal.
'Then this crystal should also be a godly treasure.' Greed flashed in his mind as he unshealth a treasure dagger from his waist.
Stab! Stab! Stab!
The man mercilessly stabbed his comrade in the chest. He wasn't satisfied with a single stab, so he rained the man with series of poking on the vitals until the man died like a dead fish. His target could never been dead after that.
"Sorry, Paul. I can't let this opportunity slipped away in my hands."
Covered with blood, the man shealth his dagger and reached out for the shining crystal in the hand of the corpse in excitement. He wasn't even bothered about Vince in the corner as he already sentenced him to death in his mind.
Just as the man was about to examine the crystal, he felt a sudden chill that came from his very soul.
He suddenly choked for air as a powerful hand grabbed his neck tightly.
Vince' crimson eyes glared at the man as he made a light squeeze in his hand.
Crack!
The man did not even let out a squeal before his eyes rolled and he died on the spot.
Vince grabbed the soul crystal of his son before it disappeared to the system storage.
Slump!
Vince slumped to the ground cross legged. His eyes were shut and his body started to shiver. Cold sweat oozed out from his body as if he was preparing on something.
"Aaaarghh!!!"
His body grew two pitch black wings just like a bat wings. It spread for a while before it retracted like it never were there in the first place.
Not second later, his body was covered with crimson scales that made him look like a human in dragon form with two majestic horns on his forehead. Just like the previous transformation, his body returned to original human form.
The changes continued for many hours.
Vince' body transformed into countless of figures with various charactiristics on his body.
It is more accurte to say that Vince transformed into various kinds of alien races in the universe.
While being in the process, Vince never ceased his agonizing cry.
However, if one had to notice the tone of his cry, they would feel the difference.
That is because, Vince wasn't hurt physically.
He was in in deep anguish, grief, misery and heartache inside his mind and soul for the unlocked memories he had at the moment.
