Infinite Skin System: Starting as An Eldritch Knight

Chapter 114: John Collins

In front of the mirror was a tall man wearing a sleek black leather suit. His suit has engraves on it that looked like feathers.

Carter turned around and see the back. A pair of wings engraved on the suit. The wings became real and spread out. Now he could fly even without turning into the Raven Knight.

"Nice suit." Iganu’s voice echoed.

’It seems like there is something remain after that Unknown ability triggered.’

"Are you well?" Carter said.

"As usual." Iganu said.

[SYSTEM GHOST EQUIPPED]

Carter switched back to his other skin. Iganu was no more. It seemed like he had become an actual being within the blade. Still, Iganu was still under the control of the Skin System.

’Having a scene partner is challenging. I have to up my game whether he’s around.’

Carter still had quite a lot of resources left that he could use.

’What should I make now?’

Carter sat down at his chair, tapping on his chin. There weren’t much combination left that he could try.

’I could try to create a better Werewolf. Wolfman has okay abilities. Mutated Wolf is a Medium variation of the Minor Terror Wolf. Maybe I can try and make a stronger Wolf Shapeshifter?

With Skin Printer, he didn’t need to hope for Terror Wolf to appear. He had one Terror Wolf left and one Mutated Wolf.

’Fire up the Skin Printer!’

A new window appeared. The Skin Forge was a hammer and an anvil. Skin Fusion was a vortex. Skin Graft was a sacrificial stone.

Skin Printer was literally a modern printer with three slots to insert three shards in.

Carter put the Minor Awaken Terror Shards in.

The Printer showed up all the options for Minor Terror Carter could get.

’Terror Wolf.’

[Lost x20 Minor Terror Shards (Awaken)]

[Printed x2 Terror Wolf]

’It worked perfectly as expected.’

[Fused x3 Terror Wolf]

[Acquired x1 Terror Mutated Wolf]

’Two Terror Mutated Wolf Skins. And now, a Wolfman as Filler Materials.’

Carter had enough Wolfman Medium Shards to make one to fuse with the two Terror Skins.

[Forged x10 Medium Wolfman Shards (Awaken)]

[Please design your skin]

[Wolfman Skill List]: (Any skin can pick three): Bite; Dog Fight; Perception; Reflexes; Self-Regeneration; Strength.

’Mutated Wolf already had Bite, Dog Fight, and Perception. I must pick Reflexes, Self-Regeneration, and Strength.’

Then Carter began to design what this Wolfman might be. He had to make two designs instead of one. One for the human form and one for wolf form.

He went very basic this time. Basic but with contrasts. The human form was a weak scrawny man that looked extremely harmless. He looked like a bookworm that always carried books around.

Carter imagined him wearing round glasses and boring brown-colored clothes. That aspect could be completed with Ghost Clothes later.

The wolf form must be the opposite. The biggest baddest wolf possible. Carter couldn’t make it into a humanoid hybrid so he had to make it into the largest wolf possible.

It was almost the size of the extincted dire wolf back on Earth. Carter wanted to make it even bigger but the system didn’t allow it.

’Fine. This size is enough.’

It was a black mean wolf with teeth that would make any weak-minded men fainted. Its face was ferocious and its fur messy like it just finished a hunt.

Once Carter was satisfied with his design, it was time for him to name it.

’What would his name be? His name should be tame, weak, and the least intimidating possible.’

"John... Collins."

Cater then began the cross Skinline fusion.

’I hope it’ll be something good.’

Carter transformed into the new skin. He immediately turned into his Wolf Form.

It was still just a wolf, only bigger.

’I can make this skin more powerful via sacrifices. Add the Charging ability from Terror Charger. Maybe Terror Force from Terror Man. Pighead’s Sized Strength is also very compatible. But this skin would still be missing something. A certain flare that will make it a perfect Werewolf.’

Carter had extracted everything he could from this world. The answer to his perfect werewolf wasn’t here.

’I’ll leave this task for the next world then. I hope there will be some suitable skin lines there.’

Carter didn’t leave for the next world right away. He still had unfinished business in Eldritch Arms.

The first thing was the Metabolic Institute. With Nina and Quill officially became an Awaken, he could open the school now and create new Superhuman.

Nina and Quill also needed to become an Elite. Without a broken Skin System like Carter, that would take months, even years. So he didn’t rush them and allow them to grow naturally.

Carter called General Dragovic and Dr. Avaline to arrange the opening of the training school. Only the best of the best with capable and sound mind could attend.

He had six protective years before direct confrontational with other dimensions. It’s best if he began to prepare now.

A few weeks later. The Metabolic Institute officially opened. Carter also advised some of the Invokers to attend to. They were still basically human so if they could learn Metabolism Manipulation and Adrenals, their power would grow exponentially.

Neros and Piper obviously joined the Institute. They brought a few Invokers with them as well.

The Priests were also very interested in this supernatural path. They asked Carter’s permission to receive the knowledge and train at their own monastery.

Carter agreed as well. This world was his. Everyone’s strength was his strength.
