Burglar System: Stealing Ancient Dragon God Bloodline from the Very Start

Chapter 19: I Want to Become Stronger

"If you like to watch it so much, then you should keep watching!"

Shirley yelled at William angrily. Then, she clipped her legs tightly onto the horse's belly and distanced herself from William.

William looked at Shirley's back with a cold expression.

He still remembered Shirley's attitude toward him before. It was the natural estrangement and indifference. They did not talk as much as they did that day, even though the two of them had been classmates in George's class for so many years.

William could also understand one thing now that she had suddenly proposed to go with him to hunt monsters in the wilderness. Sherry had not taken him seriously before, and she felt that they were now at the same rank as her when she suspected that after he had awakened the King's Blood. That was why she had suddenly come to talk to him.

"What is the background of this girl?" William muttered to himself.

Then, he thought of the woman from the Hope Society.

He had stared at that woman not because he thought she was pretty but because he was worried that the Hope Society might have discovered something. After all, even Shirley could sense he was weird. The Hope Society was such a powerful organization, so perhaps they would be able to grasp more things and discover a flaw that he had not even noticed.

"Hyah!"

He squeezed his legs tightly on the horse's belly and chased after the team.

Catherine was talking to George when she caught a glimpse of William from the corner of her eye. She waved her hand and shouted, remembering that this young man was also surrounded by Vengeful Wraiths, "Come here."

William was nervous, but his expression was one of confusion. It was a reaction that suited a young man of his age. He had just been attacked by a group of Vengeful Wraiths and was scared out of his wits.

"Is there anything?" William said timidly.

"Don't be afraid. I'm just asking you some questions." Catherine's eyes were filled with impatience. She did not like such a weak man.

She had tried her best to make her voice gentler, but there was still a hint of cold annoyance in it.

William pretended to be a coward and nodded.

Sam laughed loudly beside him. He had finally regained some reputation for the humiliation he had just suffered.

However, he was immediately glared at by Catherine, and his laughter immediately stopped.

"Let me ask you, did you see anyone passing by when you were surrounded by the Vengeful Wraiths?" Catherine looked at William and asked.

She had already asked George this question once.

George's answer made was not what she wanted to hear.

Although she suspected that it might be someone from the Hope Society or Earl Vienna's man who had passed by and saved them. No clues were found at the moment, and she could not be sure that it was those people. She still needed to find the person who had killed the Vengeful Wraiths to find out where the Vengeful Wraiths had gone.

Moreover, the Fire Elements left behind at the scene, as well as the Earth Rank Vengeful Wraith's corpse, made Catherine very curious. Who was this mysterious and powerful existence?

Catherine had to find out the identity of the Earth Rank expert that the Hope Society had not recorded.

William shook his head and said, "I've never seen anyone."

Catherine shook her head in disappointment and waved her hand, indicating that he could leave.

William maintained a cautious expression. He slowly let out a sigh of relief after turning around and leaving. He was assured. It seemed that the people of the Hope Society had suspected that in the wrong direction. He was temporarily safe.

However, that made him even more curious about how Shirley knew.

Shirley was waving at William from the side at that moment.

William rode over.

Shirley asked, "Why didn't you tell that woman from the Hope Society that you were the one who killed the Vengeful Wraith? With the position of the Hope Society, you'll receive a lot of support as long as you say that you've awakened the King's Blood."

William turned around and looked. The woman from the Hope Society was still talking to George, so she did not notice him.

He lowered his voice and answered Shirley, "Although the Hope Society can provide me with a lot of resources, they will also have a lot of restrictions on me."

"Those restrictions are nothing. At most, you would just need to report what you want to do. You will still have the support of the Hope Society. You don't need to be like other adventurers who are alone in the wild and can't fight back while facing danger. The Hope Society will give you strong support and lead you to explore different wilderness and hunt monsters."

Shirley was worried that William did not know how powerful the Hope Society was, so she explained anxiously.

William shook his head. There were some things that he did not say. His biggest reliance was on the Stealing System, which was also his biggest secret. If he had to report in and out of the wilderness, and he had to be followed by others, then it would be very difficult for him to steal the Endowed Supernatural Abilities of the monsters. That would make him lose his biggest trump card.

Moreover, he could still obtain the best results in the advanced examination, even if he did not join the Hope Society. He could still obtain many conveniences. Moreover, he did not need to be monitored. William was clear of such matters.

At this moment, a loud sound came from the direction of Fort Vienna.

Rumble!

Everyone was shocked and looked in the direction of Fort Vienna.

A huge pale pillar of light rose from the fortress and shot in the dark red sky, lighting it up. Then, there was an explosion, and the pillar of light scattered in all directions.

Roar!

Roar!

Woo!

It seemed that some powerful monster was awakened in the depths of the wilderness, making all kinds of strange sounds.

Then, a powerful monster's aura emitted from the direction of Fort Vienna.

A pressure that originated from the level of life came over. It felt as if a huge mountain was suddenly pressing down on their body. Their limbs became soft, and their mind went blank. They felt palpitation in their heart.

Even Catherine, who was an Earth Rank, knelt on one knee.

She was still doing well and could barely hold on with the power of the Earth.

As for the others, whether it was George or Sam, were all lying on the ground, unable to even lift their heads.

Catherine was extremely shocked. An endless stream of power came from the Earth, helping her to resist the powerful pressure. Suddenly, she saw a different figure from the corner of her eye. It was as if someone was still standing?

How could someone still be able to stand with such powerful pressure?

Catherine moved her head with great difficulty. She was shocked to see that cowardly student called William from before actually standing straight, looking up in the direction of Fort Vienna.

Could it be that he was the person who killed the Vengeful Wraith's leader?

Catherine couldn't help but think in her heart.

William had no other thoughts other than shock at that moment. A power from his bloodline woke up the instant the pressure came. A dragon's roar exploded in his body, pushing him up just as he was about to fall, resisting the pressure for him.

He understood that this was the power from the Ancient Dragon God Bloodline. He would have been like the others, lying on the ground if not for this power.

A feeling of weakness that he had never felt before came. He was still so small in this world, even with the Stealing System.

"System!"

William shouted in his heart.

"I want to become stronger!"

"Ding! Detected the host's strong will. The system has activated fusion mode... detecting 56 [ Vengeful Breath ] Endowed Supernatural Ability... compatible with [ Poison Immunity ] physique, activating fusion mode..."

A cold voice sounded from the bottom of his heart.

"Note: This fusion is uncertain. Host, please choose whether to fuse."
