My Maids Are All Antagonists! Chapter 2
Advertisement
This mechanical voice stunned Eddie.
This is... ?
While he was still in a daze.
The system's voice continued to ring out.
"Host, please enter your name to bind."
"Eddie Edward"
"Host Eddie Edward, Welcome to the unlimited energy absorption system."
When Eddie heard this voice, he couldn't help but feel curious.
"What is unlimited energy absorption?"
"Host, the system will endlessly absorb energy from the surroundings to produce energy points. Energy points can be converted into one's own attributes, skill points, and bloodline points to improve oneself."(10 energy points can be exchanged for 1 Energy Point)
Eddie clenched his fists tightly. He knew it!
How could his fate stop here? !
With a mid-low level talent, no matter how hard he worked, he would never be able to make a name for himself!
But now, it was different.
His cheat had arrived!
"Open the personal interface!"
Eddie directly called out the system.
[ name: Eddie Edward ]
[ title: Infinite Energy Collector ]
[ profession: Magic Apprentice (0/10)]
[ skills: None ].
[ talent: None ].
[ intelligence: 8]
[ strength: 3]
[ vitality: 3]
[ agility: 5]
[ bloodline: 7]
[ normal people have 10 points to Max ]
It seemed that his intelligence and bloodline were not low. These two points were undoubtedly the prerequisite for him to awaken his magic talent.
Then, looking at his strength and stamina, Eddie could not help but smile bitterly.
As long as his stamina was better, he would not be chased by a group of short-legged goblins.
Looking at the column for his class, Eddie's eyes suddenly lit up.
Behind the column for his class, there was experience showing that as long as he absorbed enough energy, he could directly advance from a magic apprentice to a Rank 1 mage?
This was good news.
He was really worried that he wouldn't be able to break through the upper limit of a Tier 2 mage for the rest of his life.
Eddie's expression gradually became happy.
This was undoubtedly the best news for him. After all, he had just arrived in the foreign world. If his strength wasn't enough, then he wouldn't be able to protect anything.

"Main mission announcement: Absorb Energy, begin training."
Mission reward: "Energy Points * 5, gold coins * 10."
There was a system mission?
In order to obtain energy points, Eddie immediately entered a meditative state on his bed.
This method was given to him by the magician who had tested his talent. Every magician who tested his talent would be taught a meditation technique, telling them to train hard and not slack off.
Therefore, he quickly followed the description in his mind and got into a pose, carrying out his first 'meditation'in this world.
The meditation technique was actually very simple.
It was to magnify his spiritual power and observe the magical elements floating in the air.
Then, he used his consciousness to control his spiritual power to capture them.
At this moment, in Eddie's perception.
The sunlight that shone down was no longer made up of light, but became countless light spots.
The light spots floated in the air like golden glutinous rice balls.
They looked soft and gentle.
This was an experience that Eddie had never experienced before!
In the past, when he used meditation, he could not find a single magic element even after half a day.
Now, not only was it within his field of vision, it was even actively sticking to him.
Eddie used his mind to control his spiritual power to transform into a tentacle, trying to catch these slippery magic elements.
But when his spiritual power approached, the tentacle formed by his spiritual power was immediately repelled by these magic elements.
Damn!
Eddie didn't believe it and continued to catch and repelled.
After wasting a long time, he barely managed to eat a 'glutinous rice ball'into his body.
Eddie finally understood why his mid-low magic talent was trash.
This training efficiency was simply a test of patience!
Countless times, he wanted to use his hands to grab these magic elements into his body, but he held back.
Because he knew that this was just the illusion of these magic apprentices.
These light spots could only resonate with spiritual power, and using his hands was futile.

No wonder some people could only become a rank 1 mage and rub fireballs after working hard for their entire lives.
The old Granny next door was even faster than him when she was in a wheelchair.
Just as Eddie was thinking dejectedly.
Suddenly, a system notification appeared.
[ mission completed. Congratulations to host for completing energy absorption for the first time. Reward Energy Points * 5, gold coins * 10. ]
A pile of gold coins suddenly appeared in front of Eddie. There were exactly ten of them.
Damn!
Ten gold coins in this world had a strong purchasing power.
One gold coin was enough for an ordinary family of three to eat for a month.
As the heir of the Baron, he could only receive 100 gold coins in tax every year.
This increased by one-tenth.
And it was all private money.
Eddie was absolutely delighted.
All the money he collected from taxes was placed with Emily.
All the expenses in the castle were also managed by the head maid, so Eddie couldn't be bothered to care about this.
Then, he looked at the system interface.
"Then what's the use of these energy points?"
Eddie muttered to himself.
"The host can use these energy points to strengthen his own attributes."
Eddie looked at his own interface.
His skill and talent window were both gray, indicating that there was nothing for him to use.
Then, the rest could only be used on intelligence, strength, stamina, agility, and bloodline.
He understood all four of the above, but what was the use of this bloodline?
Eddie reached out and added a few points to his bloodline.
In an instant, his mind seemed to suddenly become clear.
It was as comfortable as eating a big mouthful of ice cream on a hot summer day.
Eddie immediately felt that his thinking had become more flexible than before.
Could it be that the bloodline changed one's aptitude?
With this question in mind, he once again entered a meditative state.
The time he entered this time was obviously much faster than the previous time.
Even the surrounding light spots had increased.
Eddie used his consciousness to control his spiritual power to capture the light spots, but it was actually not as strenuous as before.
He was a little excited, and quickly added the remaining energy points to his bloodline.
Instantly, an indescribable pleasure rushed straight to his forehead.
It was so comfortable that he almost cried out.
The bloodline attribute on the interface directly broke through the human limit of 10 points, reaching 12!
Eddie, who was struggling to control a spiritual tentacle in his sea of consciousness, suddenly felt that he had spare energy.
He directly controlled the excess spiritual energy to turn into tentacles, absorbing magic elements.
The efficiency of the two tentacles.
Compared to the previous speed, it directly doubled!
In other words, the efficiency of cultivating for one day was equivalent to cultivating for two days in the past!
"Congratulations to host for breaking through the bloodline threshold (human threshold 10 points) . Reward: Energy Points * 5, gold coins * 10"
Eddie's lips curled into a faint smile.
Without hesitation, he added it all to his bloodline!
As long as his bloodline points were higher, the speed at which he absorbed energy would be faster!
Eddie's bloodline points immediately reached 17!
At the same time, his body also underwent changes due to the improvement of his bloodline.
In his consciousness world, the blood in his body had a faint golden color, but it soon disappeared.
Eddie didn't pay attention to this and only focused his attention on the light point.
Soon, the two tentacles collected 10 points of energy for him.
He exchanged 10 points of energy for 1 point of energy.
He added it to his bloodline.
Under the stimulation of increasing strength, Eddie was training crazily.
Until a system notification came.
