Chapter 1065: A Banquet After Many Years
The echo of songs and cheers could be heard throughout the Cragfall city as a massive banquet was held.
For the first time in several years, the Cragfall city was having a banquet of this level. Before this, even common celebrations like birthdays were not done due to the lack of normal resources.
After all, even obtaining food was becoming tough for the people and they were already buying a lot of it from the other kingdoms. If things kept on going as they were, it wouldn’t take long for them to become completely bankrupt.
But now, Lin Wu’s arrival had made it possible for them to not just survive but flourish.
The death of the Cruel Helm Octopus alone would have been enough, but Lin Wu was going beyond that and had offered to provide them a steady supply chain. After all, this kingdom was now his own and it didn’t make sense to let the people suffer.
It would be the same as letting his own livestock die.
Lin Wu was not about to make a loss like that.
As the banquet progressed, the people got drunk and stuffed themselves with food. Lin Wu too got his portion of the food, which was the biggest one.
“Looks good.” Lin Wu said as he gazed at the various dishes that had been prepared for him.
The Cruel Helm octopus had been prepared in the form of several dishes, ranging from deep fried tentacles, to octopus balls and pancakes. Its head on the other hand, was grilled to perfection and was smelling rather tantalizing.
“Please, King Lin Wu.” King Yun Guiren gestured for him to start. “We hope that you will enjoy this.”
Lin Wu gave a nod before starting to eat.
It had taken hundreds of people of the Cragfall city to cook such a massive amount of meat at once. And yet, they had managed to do it properly in the end.
‘They are rather skilled in making octopus huh… Guess that makes sense since fishing is their main industry.’ Lin Wu thought to himself as he started eating.
He enjoyed every dish and savored every bite of it.
But this was merely the start of his enjoyment, as the System notification also started to pop up. Lin Wu was gaining a lot from eating the Cruel Helm Octopus.
Lin Wu ignored most of the common notifications that showed the Vital Energy gain and Spirit Qi gain as he had such a large amount of it stored that he didn’t really need to worry about it.
Not to mention, he also had a steady supply of it due to the people ‘farming’ it all for him using his weapons as well as the regular battles over time.
His Chimeric skills were hard at work and was quickly improving it. Lin Wu confirmed that eating an Immortal Ascension realm beast provided the best benefits.
It didn’t take long for the smaller notifications to be swept away by a major one.

“Ahahah! Not only did the Proficiency increase but a new sub skill was added too!” Lin Wu was pleased.
He could already feel his body improving internally. While he already had the tentacle generation skill, it wasn’t exactly the same kind of tentacle as that of an octopus of a squid. It was a plain tentacle with no suckers.
But now that Lin Wu had consumed the Cruel Helm Octopus, it had allowed him to develop the suckers as well.
‘Looks like it isn’t just the suckers from octopus either, the skills have accumulated all different kinds of suckers, from octopus, squid, jelly fishes, remora fishes and more.’ Lin Wu looked into the details of the skill, finding it to be rather varied.
This was to be expected though, after all the Chimeric Organogenesis only gave a new sub skill when a sufficient variants of it were accumulated. And in the current case, it was evident that the gain had been big enough to trigger proficiency increase as well.
But this was not the end of notifications.

“Another one!” Lin Wu got even more excited.
Chimeric Resistance was one of his important defensive skills. It was the entire reason why he could simply tank most of the attacks. It prevented him from being affected by several different elements.
‘This had not upgraded for a while too… it took the longest time. Guess the Cruel Helm Octopus was finally enough to trigger the upgrade.’ Lin Wu thought to himself.
He reckoned that this was not the end though, and that he would be getting more gains soon.
‘Let’s finish all this up first.’ Lin Wu thought.
