I'm really looking forward to Adrians demise! Even if its not group four who does it. Long live the Angry Kittens and their leader Biscuit!!

That…actually makes sense

Knowing Group 4 naming sense.... Maybe "Rebound" ? xD

It can means that Blackie has sentience now, like a cute demonic kinetic bomb

Kirin

Thank you for the chappie!

Isaac Lung

He won’t have the output or durability of a champion but a comparable understanding of mana manipulation

RingoSeto

once he reaches lvl 80 will he become a champion? thats the minimum range... that would make his body modification op ...

Oh how nice of Adrian to set up a tower for Nat and his crew to later take over or gather materials from once Adrian is dealt with.

BTW, this comment from Sophie felt ominous, “This is a pain in the ass. A malfunction eroded his rule set, leaving him vulnerable to stimuli that can alter him at a deeper level. I won’t bother you with a more detailed explanation.”

Nictis

Well he seems to be learning how to control the kinetic trait pretty quickly. He seems really child-like, but is aware enough to realize that his trait is why everyone is trying to keep distance from him. Wonder what his new name will be.

Thank you!

Adrian's ego is only slightly smaller than his ability to be a bitch.

Like Nat said, if they were afraid of everything they might as well stay home and suck on their thumbs. Group 4 been taking risks

Iniko Betts

I do not know you, but I 100% support your opinions on both characters. F them both.

The longest...I mean tallest...tower on earth

People also thought Nat was going to get a new primordial energy in the armory arc. Bad guys who are tough get killed off screen in this story all the time. Adrian is stronger than everyone but Nat and Vic and even he is an ant. I wouldn’t be surprised if he turns out to be a loser no one and we get something else crazy instead.

Chapters are long, yet they feel soooo short. It's a really really cool story, I love it. And f Adrian (and Sophie, I still hate her).

Just start over

Terri Harris

So Blackie gets an old champion body, and Adrians red buddy gets a tower with wings. It still feels like all of group four plus Savi, Tacita, Victoria, Biscuit, and all the other OP hell difficulty folks should be able to easily put Adrian in his place, that's even leaving Nats OP self out of the equation. I like that Adrian is continuing to set himself up as Earth's bad guy for everyone. It'll be interesting to see how much of earth's population can be salvaged in the processing of all the various pairings and confrontations between Nat and hell difficulty friends over the Absolute contest or just being at odds with Adrian. Makes you wonder if anything we think we know about Adrian is true? Clearly lotsa story left to tell. Loving it!

TFTC. Blackie channeling Ricochet Rabbit was quite amusing.

John Anastacio

In the Tarot, the Tower is the card that signifies great change and destruction and disaster due to hubris. It does not bode well for Adrian's ambitions.

TYRELL GRAY

Who knows, it could be. Or it could be like a radar.

Fdrugc

So is the tower a amplifier?

Manaless

With all the brains gathered, none of them thought that using a champion's body that's a walking time bomb would be a terrible idea? I expected that from Sophie, not the others. Fraudian is building the magic tower for Nat; he's a good godfather. I think if things continue like this, the fight with the champion will be after next month; I can only start stockpiling chapters 😮‍💨...

Adrian Rake

Good chapter 👍💪

Mirror, possession and OSHA violation, only 7 skills to go

John Anastacio

So Tess can turn into lightning to move around with now. And Adrian has a construction skill? I'm surprised. I think he might be compensating for something. And Nat moves one step closer to Champion-level skills.

David Fisher

TFTC!!! What a pretentious prick, Adrian better be on the lookout for when a certain corgi shaped eldritch monster shows up.

Budgie

Why is the fraud so cliche? Really a weird ass tower, 4 wings and a throne on the top. Mans compensating

Rene Duvall

Man if only I could read slower so I could enjoy this longer😔 TFTC!!!

Thanks for the message

We still don't know what Pristine item Tacita got from that Humility event, so it really can be a gun lmao Press F for poor mountains, Fraudrian just can't leave them alone

Isaac Lung

9th floor ruler is definitely gluttony

zoarian

Tree > Tower. Embrace tree 🌳👍 Tacita with a gun... now that's scary. One of her main limitations was long range attacks. If she has a long range weapon with similar potency to her normal attacks, that's a big weakness covered. In general, I really like how the other talented people react to each other in the series. Savant clearly saw Nat flying, realized he wouldn't be able to do much, and decided to get some of that. Nat with kinetic, covering his weak close range. In so many other serials, the characters are pretty static but in HDT it feels like they actually think about their build a lot - it's great!
