Chapter 573
Legendary Ranks (1)
Among those deserted buildings, Dean found that kind of familiar feelings. He walked down to the end of the street, with all bones of monsters that had been dead for many years and giant footprints cover by wet moss everywhere. In the past three hundred catastrophic years, this place had already been trampled by too many monsters and become extremely messed up.
After taking about four to five lis (1 li equals to 0. 5 kilometer), Haisha suddenly said, "Change another route. There’re monsters ahead. "
"Got it. " Dean immediately changed their route. Though Haisha hadn’t been fully recovered and regained her power, her perception was still far beyond his.
The two of them kept moving forward on another road.
Thanks to Haisha’s tips all the way, Dean never met any dangerous high level monsters. As for those common Walking Dead and monsters in groups, he just killed all of them, no need to avoid.
After an hour later, they arrived at the Shadow Hunter’s cave.
"Someone has been here?" After Dean saw the footprints before the cave, the expression on his face changed slightly. After checking them, he noticed that those footprints were a little messy. But judging from the depth of those footprints, he could tell they belonged to seven people.
That was the exact number of one Dragon Hunter Team!
"It’s the Dragon Guard’s footprints. " Haisha looked at those footprints, and then looked into the cave, "I guess it should be the exploring team who has ever come to look for Parner of the Sky Clan with me. They found this place and asked the Dragon Guards to move the eggs here away. Let’s go check it out. "
"Dragon Guards?" Dean was surprised, "How did you know?"
"I knew those shoeprints. " Speaking of which, Haisha already walked into the cave.
Now Dean took a tumble. He never imagined shoeprints could also be used to make identifications. He learnt something new.
After entering the cave, Dean noticed that the footprints were extended to the deep inside, making him feel a little sorry. He thought he could have stolen more eggs for his collection. But now it seemed they were all handed in.
"After having obtained so many legendary eggs of the monsters, the Dragon Race should be able to cultivate plenty of powerhouses, right?" said Dean, "It shouldn’t be the first time such things have happened in the deserted area. If so, are the pioneers of the Dragon Race all own the legendary magic marks?"
Haisha shook her head, saying, "The reason they are called legendary magic mark is not because they would inherit the legendary parasitic soul worms, but because quite a few own the legendary magic marks. "
"What does it mean?" Dean was perplexed.
"To absorb the legendary parasitic soul worm is way different from any other kind of parasitic soul worm. The host would be easily possessed and lose his own consciousness and become a Parasite Man. " Haisha turned to him and went on, "You live outside the wall, so the information you get is quite limited. Hunter is already the highest level outta the wall. So you have no idea that the magic mark exchanging is conditioned. Not everyone is qualified to exchange for the magic mark. "
Dean was caught in a trance. He suddenly remembered that when he absorbed a parasitic soul worm from a splitter, it tried to drill into his brain after getting into his body. Fortunately he pinched it on his neck. Then a parasitic soul worm had nowhere to go, so it could only stay parasitic on the nest of the magic mark in his chest.
So if it had successfully drilled into his brain, it was quite likely that he would have already become a "Parasite Man" as Haisha said.
Although he had no idea what a Parasite Man looked like, he could tell it should be very disgusting judging by its name.
"Is there a condition for magic mark exchanging?" Dean looked at her and asked with a humble att.i.tude. He knew the information in this world was blocked tier upon tier. A level at his, he could hardly get the whole information, or even false information sometimes.
"Exactly. " Answered Haisha, "As you know, the stronger one is, the dehumanized part is bigger, due to the magic mark. When the dehumanized part is overmuch, the transformed body would barely accept the new magic mark, or even have a conflict and lead to unpredictable consequences. The most serious result is death!"
"Even if one is lucky enough, his consciousness would break down, body deformed, and finally he would become a deformed ugly nonhuman bloodthirsty monster. "
"So if one’s physique is too strong, his magic mark is settled and can’t be replaced. " Haisha turned to Dean and said, "You are lucky to obtain the legendary magic mark at the hunter
Dean was caught in a trance.
"So, even if we get a lot Shadow Hunter eggs, only those newbies having the potentials could use them. Those who have already become a Limitless or a Pioneer whose magic marks have been settled cannot use them. "
Haisha replied, "That is where the problem is. When a newbie of hunter level changes his magic mark, though the resistance is much less and quite secure, the legendary parasitic soul worm itself is quite dangerous. It’s not something an ordinary hunter can easily subdue. Even if it is an elite hunter our Dragon Clan specially trained who has extraordinary willpower would also be possibly possessed by the parasitic soul worm and turn into a Parasite Man. "
"So, even if we obtain dozens of legendary eggs, it’ll be already great if there is one out of ten that could change with magic marks on the mortal body. And those who are imprinted with the legendary magic marks could have a rarer chance to live till the Pioneer level. "
Dean was a little startled for he never expected that it was so dangerous to absorb the legendary magic mark. Even for those elite hunters the Devil family specially trained, it still had such a high failure rate. If it had been some ordinary people, wouldn’t the legendary parasitic soul worm become kind of poison?
"What would happen…if someone really turns into a Parasite Man?" asked Dean.
Haisha squeezed her eyes and said, "He would be eliminated. "
As Dean had expected.
Haisha slowed down her steps and walked with Dean side by side. She tilted her head and looked at him, "I see you’ve got a lot of wounds. You must have been though a lot, right?"
It reminded Dean of the things in prison. He blinked and then said, "It’s OK. Past is past. But like what you said, I should be grateful to those sufferings because they tempered my willpower. Otherwise I would have been a walking dead after having got the splitter parasitic soul worm. "
"When we are experiencing sufferings, we hate them. But after we have gone though them, we are grateful to them. " Haisha said so.
Dean looked at her and nodded, "Exactly. "

"So if one’s physique is too strong, his magic mark is settled and can’t be replaced. " Haisha turned to Dean and said, "You are lucky to obtain the legendary magic mark at the hunter stage. Generally speaking, even if one has evolved to the advanced hunter stage, the risks of exchanging one’s magic mark is only 20%. So only those super unlucky ones would be possessed. ".

"So, even if we get a lot Shadow Hunter eggs, only those newbies having the potentials could use them. Those who have already become a Limitless or a Pioneer whose magic marks have been settled cannot use them. ".
