Multi-Gene

David smiled, but then he frowned. He was worried. 

It took him quite the trouble to endure this process. He had almost even died, if he didn\'t have his ability, he might as well be dead right now. 

He was worried that Lyster hadn\'t made enough preparations yet. But soon, his worry faded. She wouldn\'t do something that dangerous without proper preparation. 

Checking out his skin, his skin was extremely soft almost like a baby\'s but even more resilient than leather. 

But above that, his skin was currently slimy as there was a different fluid that covered his skin. 

He hadn\'t even noticed it at first but now that he did, he smelled horrible. Making him frown. 

They were the impurities his body had excreted during the process. He just didn\'t have enough time to notice it. 

Tapping on his imprint, David spoke. "Hazel, you there?" 

"Of course I\'m here, where else would I be?" Hazel responded.

"Hmm, that means you are okay now." David just ignored the AI and his body flashed as he revolved his blood. 

After images shown in every corner of the building David passed and before one could fade, another one showed up. It was like an incredible phenomenon. David rushed as he made his way towards the top floor of the building where the supply box was located. 

He had been unable to open the box previously due to his imprint being out of energy but now, with the sound of his heartbeat providing energy for the imprint. 

It shouldn\'t be much of a hassle to open the box now. 

Activating the emergency light, David entered the floor and went direct for the box. 

Placing his hands before the box, he waited a few seconds, and the popping sound of the box opening sounded out. 

He was incredibly excited. This was a middle grade supply box and it was the first time he was seeing one. Also, since he had suffered way too much for this, his expectations for the box was high. 

He didn\'t even wait for the lid to open up finish, he placed his hands directly within the box. His hand caught onto something steely hard and a bit long. 

His body paused slightly and he contemplated. After a second, David shrugged lightly and he pulled the thing his hand had caught out form the box. 

David blinked his eyes slowly as he tried to make sure he wasn\'t seeing things wrong. 

What he had brought out was a golden rod like steel. It was almost half a meter long but it was also in a curve like shape. 

It really looked like the spine of a human. But this spine was made of gold. It was made of the same material that the lump of gold David had previously gotten was made of. 

David suddenly gritted his teeth tightly and he really wanted to roar up to the skies in anger.

"W-what is this?" David eyes had turned soulless by this point. He didn\'t even know what this was, which means he could not use it. 

Which also basically means, he had suffered for nothing. 

David took in deep breaths to contain his anger because he was incredibly furious right now.

And the stinging pain coming from his eyes wasn\'t helping things either.

Tapping the box, it disintegrated and the millions or hundreds of Nano bots moved towards his back, and reattached to themselves to form a backpack much larger and sturdier than the previous one.

He threw in his stuffs inside the bag and after a while of thinking, he placed the spine like object into the bag.

Since he didn\'t know the use for the object, and it wasn\'t really useful to him now, it doesn\'t mean it would remain useless in the future and wouldn\'t be useful to him now.

After which, David got ready to depart. He was just a few steps away when suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in both eyes. 

The pain was so sudden and fast that David almost lost his footing from surprise and from the pain. 

His eyebrow creased as he couldn\'t figure out what the cause of the pain is. 

As the pain continued to manifest, David felt his eyes grow teary and blurry. It was as though something was blocking his vision. 

He touched his eyes in an attempt to massage and clear it but he felt two wet fluids dripping down his cheeks. 

"I\'m crying?" David was stunned as he questioned. 

Bringing his hands closer towards his eyes, he saw that it wasn\'t the normal transparent fluid of tears, the tears dripping down his eyes was black in colour and appears to smell quite a bit. 

A bit panicked by the sudden situation, David didn\'t know what to do and all he did was use his hands to rub away the Black fluid as they dropped from his eyes. 

After almost a minute, the black fluid stopped coming out making David sigh in relief. He didn\'t know what was happening and he could only hope it wasn\'t a bad thing. 

Trying to pry open his eyes, David was met with a thunderous headache. He could not help but groan slightly as he head throbbed heavily, making him feel as if he was floating on clouds. 

He only managed to open his eyes slightly before he was met with a piercing light and was forced to shut them quickly. 

David was confused. He had been seeing clearly just a minute ago. What is happening now? 

After a few seconds, he proceeded to open them again, yet the same thing happened. 

The lights were like blinding stars piercing daggers into his eyes and erupting his headache once more. 

After every attempt, he proceeded to calm himself before opening them again. 

He couldn\'t continue like this. Gritting his teeth, David forced his eyes open. A sharp pain erupted in his again as the rays of light shone in his eyes but David used his willpower to stay open, causing two streams of tears flow down his cheek. 

Blinking his eyes rapidly, he was visibly relieved to see that his vision was still normal. Just that the light in his immediate surroundings seem a notch brighter while the colours seem a bit enhanced. 

But the changes were minute, it wasn\'t much of any change. Wasn\'t worth being worried or happy about. 

His head had calmed down by this time. It was as though nothing had happened. If it weren\'t for the black fluid still coating his hands, he might have thought he had just experienced an illusion.

Sweeping his gaze, the entire floor was empty, but at the far distance, at the corner of the large empty floor, lay the corpse of the beta wolf who had died from excessive blood loss or pain. 

David saw the blood had formed its own blood orb which was smaller than the one he had gotten from the high level dark haze beast. 

Pursing his lips, David turned around to leave. But as he reached the entrance of the top floor, his footsteps paused and he turned around slowly to gaze at the far distance where the illumination of the holographic light his imprint was emitting couldn\'t reach. 

It was supposed to be dark in that area, so why as it that he could see clearly even when it was as dark as night. 

Moreover, he could spot every single detail in that area as though it was day time. It was as if, as if he had night vision. 

David\'s eyes opened widely due to this revelation. He suddenly remembered he had taken four drops of the fluid from the red orb. But he really wasn\'t hoping to gain any ability. 

Moreover, the ability, night vision was a genetic ability which didn\'t depend on oscillatory or vibratory method to activate, so David\'s top ability wouldn\'t work as he couldn\'t control his body to vibrate in any specific frequency produced by the blood. 

The ability night vision, slightly alters the genetic codes in the eyes making them see clearly in the dark. Nocturnal beasts possess a pathway through which rods connect to the same "dark" circuits used by cones, which allows them better perception of edges, movement, and silhouettes in dim light. Even the nuclei of the rod cells are adapted for night vision.

When it comes to night vision, the Gyrating Owls are at the top. Their eyes are shaped more like tubes than spheres, and they don\'t move in their sockets, so they swivel their heads instead of their eyes. Their eyes are very large and their retinas have fifteen times the rod density that a human do in order to see clearly in the dark. 

It seems David had been incredibly lucky as he had gained an ability from a red orb without even knowing it. The chances to do so are incredibly low as it was just about 0.1% chance to gain the ability but he had just been lucky this time. 

But, night vision was just the basic ability of the dark wolves. Even in the Genetic Association, it is also just a basic ability which an apprentice Genetist must learn to concoct. 

David grinned widely at his luck, and although, he didn\'t get to gain the second ability of the dark wolf King, the benefit I\'d night vision in this environment was like giving wings to a tiger.
