Chapter 148
After allocating the various points to where they would function best, Darius closed the Character menu and focused on the still transforming Mikey and Joneson. The area around them losing its blight faster and faster.
Darius measured a radius of 500 meters and growing for the absorption, which was crazy. He could even set up a small estate in this patch of unblighted land. Or a safe haven, which would arguably be a better choice. He was unsure if the blight would return though, so for now, he just entertained the idea.
He rested with Gunner as they waited for the undead to emerge in their evolved form. Darius used this time to consider his next actions once they reached the Adept band.
The closer he got, the more he felt like he fulfilling his inevitable fate. He could no longer prolong it, nor run from it, especially not now when he knew what he needed to do and only had to fill in the motions successfully.
