Acquire Infinite Talents and Skills Through Seizing Bodies!
Dylan got transmigrated inside a popular game "MMORPG: Magic Art Online". A game where the strongest profession was mage. He discovered that he was just an NPC and he was actually in the game 10 years before the players would arrive! The game boasts multiple versions. The first version: Invasion of the Demons. The demons began to invade the kingdom of Azir under the orders of one of the Demon Lords. The players must stop the Demon Lord to proceed to the next version of the game! Dylan needs to become stronger as an NPC before the arrival of the players. Unlike the players, once he dies in the game, he dies forever! He needs strong enough strength to survive and help the players to stop the demon invasion. It's also an opportunity to level up! Dylan, with the help of Origin Skill "Split Soul" hopes to surpass the undying players and exploit the opportunities in the game with the help of his past life memories! Split Soul- Allows the MC to split his soul. The number depends on his level. Let the souls possess all types of creatures (monsters, humans, aliens, beasts, demons, any type of race, etc...), and when they die, the MC will inherit their entire lives worth of knowledge/memories, all their talents, skills, and experience for himself! Note: This book consists of level-up, fighting boss monsters, interacting with fellow NPCs and players, cheating, various professions, and mythical creatures like elves and dragons.
Fighting Mist Monsters
In the blink of an eye, the entire teleportation array illuminated the area within two meters. The two NPCs already stepped back in advance. It caused Dylan to close his eyes
Just like that, Dylan felt his spirit immediately tense, then transitioned to relaxed. He didn't feel nauseated like how he thought he would be. He was just a little dizzy because it was the first time he experienced such a thing.
He looked around him. Underneath his feet was also a teleportation array and two NPCs walked towards his side as they spotted his arrival.
"Greetings, sir!"
"I hope you have a good journey in these plains. But, be careful not to go deeper. The foggy beasts in the inner area are composed of beasts on par with Noble Experts."
Dylan paid heed to their words and nodded. He stepped out of the array and smiled at the two. "Thanks for the reminder. Don't worry, I won't throw my life like that."
With that, the two NPCs led Dylan outside. He saw a barricade and almost fifty-one 8th-grade experts stationed around, led by three 2nd-grade noble experts.
"These are stationed warriors to make sure that this array station in the misty place is safe. Damage to an array is unacceptable for the business due to how expensive the materials are and how hard it is to invite those elusive space engineers."
One of the NPC opened his mouth.
Dylan suddenly became curious. "Have those beasts attacked here once?"
Hearing this, the NPC nodded their heads.
"Recently, the attack became less and less. But last year, there were 10 invasions. That's why the presence of warriors here is necessary. Not only to security for the travelers here but also to reduce the monster in the periphery."
"What's the strongest beast among those beasts that invaded?" Dylan followed with another question.
"We're here." The NPC smiled.
Dylan scanned the barricade and shifted his head at the two NPCs. After a little thought, he took out the silver coin from the void cube and gave each of them one.
The NPCs became happy. The two of them immediately bowed and said. "Thank you, dear Traveller."
Then they lifted their heads again. The one on the left side spoke. "The average strength of monsters at the periphery are already at the grade 6 of Awakened Realm with the strongest being at 8th grade."
'Grade 6 to 8 huh... Not that strong. I should stay at the periphery first for the first four weeks to level up and gradually go deeper.'
As for their warning not to go deeper? He's here to fight stronger beasts to gain experience. He just needs to explore cautiously. As long as he doesn't suddenly encounter a creature at the Noble Realm. He could escape just fine with spatial dominion.
Dylan and the two NPCs bid farewell to each other. Dylan appeared outside the barricade and the surroundings drastically shifted.
Ahead, five meters from his position was a place with dense fog. He couldn't further see what was inside and beyond. 'Indeed, that's why it's named Misty Plains.'
Dylan entered the fog. He felt something on his feet. The crisp sound of wood breaking was produced.
'Damn it! How could one possibly see around with such a dense fog? In the virtual game, we can spot creatures through the thermal vision function of the headgear. But here, there's nothing like that.'
'It seems I need to find a thermal vision skill once situations similar to this arise in the future.'
Fortunately, as he got deeper. The mist gradually became thinner. At least, enough to not thoroughly block his vision. Dylan finally saw the sea of trees with snowy white leaves. These exact trees are the source of the dense mist all around. Most of the mist was concentrated above, which blocked one's vision of the sky. It's the densest area.
If the fog was moved below. Dylan doesn't doubt that it would be equivalent to being blind.
Dylan stopped at this time as he spotted eight white figures in the distance, cross-legged behind trees.

The eight monsters were all in sixth grade. Suddenly, the eight monsters were unable to react as the environment changed suddenly.
The fog in the environment disappeared which made them panic. Their natural terrain is their advantage. Now, they're in an unknown place?
"Most of your talents don't work in my spatial dominion. This evens the fighting ground."
The eight mist monsters looked hideous in Dylan's eyes. He took them from head to toe which made him utterly repulsed.
They had black lips with worms and bugs in their mouths. What's worse, decayed green lips hang outward, oozing purple fluid.
Sparse yellow hair like that of brooms and pale white skin like that of a chalk.
The eight mist monsters didn't seem to like to be looked upon as they let out a creepy laugh and dashed toward Dylan. Their lips morphed into a grin.
However, they realized that they seemed to be a bit slower.
"Didn't expect these pieces of shit to be sadistic..."
If they're still in grade 6, Dylan won't casually engage with them. But inside his space, they're demoted to 5th grade!
A peak of 3rd grade versus eight 5th grades?
"Bring it on!"
