Chapter 173 Fragment
It was a pity that there is no Vitality Points but he wouldn't complain. He likes an increase in his Strength Attributes since he was guessing that Slender Zombies would have about 15 points in its Strength based on the battles he had seen over the past months.
If in case he needed to overpower the Slender Zombie in strength, his current 20 points or so may help him do so. However, it wouldn't be enough since the Slender Zombie is larger than him and have very fast hands. Its dextrous hands that are always filled with power would be his threat if it managed to bypass his Ghost Hands or Lotus failed in her task.
Perhaps, he would only feel comfortable if he has double the strength of the Slender Zombie.
As for the Agility Points, although he feels that it's also important in his battle against the Slender Zombie because this type of zombie boasts its great movement speed, he already has two Mystical Items that would allow him to solve this issue. Any increase in his Agility is certainly appreciated but he would rather increase his Vitality than his Agility at the moment.
Vale then continued with his extraction hoping that the Monster Corpses would give him some Vitality Points.

[ Extraction Successful. Energy +40 Strength +1.05 Vitality +0.80 ]
Thud!
Vale sat on the cold floor as he started meditating.
The increase in his strength is just too much and he felt that his body is burning as if his bones are melting due to the transformation…
He wasn't too sure but perhaps he can already block a bullet at this level of strength.
Whew~
It took him about 20 minutes of meditation before he made a series of movements to ensure that he still has decent control over his new strength.
Of course, the movements weren't just random actions. It was the technique taught by his Master Heinz and something he had used before.
It was the Nimble Talon that allows him to have better body coordination and it is normally a technique used by Alchemists especially when they are performing complex procedures during concoctions or pill-making.
After getting a better grasp of his new strength, he checked his attribute panel once again.
[ Name: Kyle Marshall ]
[ Attributes: Strength 29.65, Agility 23.82, Intelligence 51.17, Vitality 27.44 ]
[ Dark Arts: Spell Dispersion Lv4, Ghost Hand Lv7, Incorruptible Body Lv5, Darkness Manipulation Lv2 ]
[ Available Energy: 1,245]
[ Available Divinity: 19.7 ]
Vale's heart started beating faster after seeing the result of his extraction today.
A total of 8.8 points were added to his Strength while 7.5 to his Agility. What was even more satisfying was his Vitality that had increased by 11.25 Points!
This is because all the Monster Corpses were probably dumb so he didn't get any intelligence points from them.
Anyway, this massive increase in his attribute made him even more confident with his upcoming battle against Larkin's Slender Zombie—No, at this point, he was no longer worried about his battle!
With his 1,245 Energy Points, he can finally upgrade his Incorruptible Body to level 6!
Once he upgraded this, the passive corruption or corrosive ability of the Slender Zombie would be nothing to him!
Of course, it is still better if Lotus can also get stronger so he might consider asking the Headmaster later if he can help…
Vale then shifted his attention to the shelf on the side.
'I wonder what these things are… Headmaster Jean didn't even put a label on them… I should've asked him a while ago.' Vale mused as he approached the shelf that was filled with various parts of some unknown beings.
They were also preserved using a high-level Formation Circle but Vale can tell that the collection on the shelf felt even more precious.
There were a total of 16 items here with 4 items in each row of the shelf.
In any case, he wasn't warned by the Professor about not touching them so they should be quite safe to touch…
He wasn't expecting too much as he touched the frozen eye that was displayed. It has about 4 inches in diameter and was certainly quite big for a human. Nevertheless, as he touched the eye, he was shocked to see a notification!
[ Immortal Fragment has been discovered. Would you like to extract it? ]
"…"
Vale was truly speechless this time. He has so many surprises after entering this basement… Helping the Headmaster deal with that arrogant student was really worth the price.
Indeed, he doesn't have a Corpse Extraction System but a Divine Extraction System!
He has no idea what an Immortal Fragment means but whatever it is, he knows that extracting it would be very beneficial to him.
Vale swiftly calmed down as he knows that he has to control his emotions during this time.
'Yes!'
After a moment, Vale finally answered the system as he waited for the result with bated breath.
[ Extraction successful. Divinity +5 ]
Vale's eyes lit up after seeing this. He may not be aware of the purpose of this Divinity but he knows that it won't be long before he discovers it.
Well, Headmaster Jean may even help him with this issue… For sure, that mysterious headmaster should know something more about these corpses and immortal fragments.
Vale then continued with his extraction with other 'fragments'. Some of them were a claw, a finger, an internal organ, a strange stone, a metallic object, or some other things but he didn't care. He extracted all of them without any hesitation!
