Raising My Trash Ability into a Broken SSS+ Rank Skill Chapter 635 Monstrous Growth
Previously on Raising My Trash Ability into a Broken SSS+ Rank Skill...
Vritra picked up on the soft murmurs echoing from within the structure.
Those sounds undoubtedly came from the captives seized by this band of thugs.
He let out a heavy breath; abandoning these ladies would seal their doom for sure.
Thus, he chose to lend them a hand, if only briefly.
Vritra could no longer sustain the dragon form; he sent it smashing far off into the horizon.
BOOOM
Once more, a bunch of mutants perished in the blast.
Their ranks had thinned out considerably at last, yet it felt like stronger foes were on the verge of emerging.
He dashed into the edifice and spotted a sealed door; a quick turn snapped the lock with ease.
The ladies cried out in panic, already shaken by the clamor of combat raging outdoors.
"Relax, those thugs are gone for good, and to make it through, stay concealed below ground."
About twenty of them huddled there, and Vritra couldn't help but feel sorry for their plight.
Suddenly, the machete's edge in his grip dripped with crimson, its form swelling larger.
Next, he reshaped it into a massive drill that spun at high speed, carving out a spacious pit in mere seconds.
"Get in there and remain hidden until silence falls, no sooner." He instructed, then handed over provisions and drinks before departing.
His storage held plenty, enough to sustain these women for a full year at minimum.
After that, they'd need to fend for themselves; he planned to depart this world shortly anyway.
Right after wrapping up his duties, of course.
"T-Thank you…" one lady stammered at last, as they descended into the pit aided by a rope of blood.
Vritra sealed the opening with nearby debris, ensuring air flow to prevent suffocation and allow future escape.
After slaying hundreds of mutants, he eagerly checked his status panel.

'Nice, these numbers would've let me wipe out that crew effortlessly earlier.' He mused, though his work wasn't over.
"Spend 200 points to spin the wheel, empty the whole pool!" he commanded, as the ghostly roulette materialized in front of him.
[Congratulations, you have acquired a Machine Gun with 1000 Rounds.]
[Congratulations, you have acquired 100kg rice!]
[Congratulations, you have acquired a free attribute point!]
…
In a flash, 163 notifications scrolled past; supplies piled up in abundance, far more than he could use in ages.
He couldn't consume it all in a lifetime, really.
But first things first, he zeroed in on the key gains: the attribute boosts.
[5 Strength, 6 Agility, 6 Endurance, 9 Spiritual, 6 Free Attribute Points!]
Barring the free ones, every stat surged instantly, flooding Vritra with a soothing warmth across his frame.
His physique grew denser and more resilient, his thoughts clearer than ever; those figures had shattered key thresholds, delivering a massive upgrade.

As usual, he held onto the six spare points for the moment.
He stashed extra rations in the chamber, then slipped away.
Exiting the school grounds, he extended his awareness across the landscape, then triggered his blood control.
Blood surged skyward from every source, leaving the fallen husks withered and empty.
He strode onward while the dragon's bulk expanded relentlessly; no remains lingered behind.
'Time to head back, whew, that took some effort.' He reflected, urging the dragon into flight to lure away the deadliest threats.
The effort paid off, though the fiercest mutants remained unseen so far.
The blood dragon soared to a remote spot before exploding into a crimson downpour over barren land; roars erupted from the vicinity soon after.
Vritra hurried toward the hideout where Yennefer and the rest waited.
Even without joining the fray, their power levels likely ticked up a notch as well.
"How do I signal them, though?" he halted, pondering.
THUMP THUMP THUMP
He pounded the earth like a signal knock and lingered.
A minute later, the soil shifted faintly, and Yennefer's face appeared.
Spotting Vritra, her features lit up with a relieved grin.
"Husband, get in quick."
The hatch widened, allowing Vritra to leap down.
Yennefer embraced him fiercely; the whole group had fretted endlessly.
They descended dozens of meters to a constructed shelter below.
The others awaited there eagerly.
"Honey!" The women swarmed him with hugs.
"How'd it go, hubby?" Yasmine inquired, latching onto his limb.
"Sigh…" With a profound exhale, Vritra recounted the tale.
Their faces dimmed somewhat; fresh to this realm, they were clueless about the nightmares unfolding.
"You did right by taking them out." Shit-Sonia declared, her own fury bubbling.
"Still, we can't linger; we'll surface shortly." Vritra announced, pulling out fresh edibles from his recent haul.
He set up a table ringed by seats, and they gathered to feast and chat.
…
Outside, night had fallen, with the snow flurry almost ceased.
The earth quivered lightly, prompting a few shadows to glide forth without a sound.
"Doesn't the chill feel milder today?" Maeve remarked, gauging the air.
"True, this place's weather swings wildly." Fiona replied, unbothered by the frost.
"We'll scout a bit and snag a spot to crash; a snow-ready ride would be ideal." Vritra suggested.
They tread the frosted path in quiet, aiming for the distant spire.
"Master, what about that colossal mutant's numbers?" Maeve queried, matching Vritra's pace.
Only he could glimpse such details.
"Every stat topped seventy. At this rate, I'll crush it before long." Vritra replied assuredly.
"Husband, with scrap parts, I'm sure I could craft a mighty transport." Teresa offered; her intellect shone unmatched.
"Sounds good, Tess, your skills will come in handy soon." Vritra affirmed, ruffling her hair.
The local mutants lay mostly vanquished, granting them smooth passage.
Moreover, Maeve's shadows cloaked them, rendering the party unseen.
AWOOOOO
Suddenly, a creature's wail pierced the air.
The team froze and retreated, hugging a nearby wall.
"That's a mutant creature, and it's drawing near?" Vanessa hissed, powers at the ready.
Vritra's gaze sharpened as he detected multiple blurs racing along the iced route.
"At least ten signatures." He murmured softly; the foes hadn't detected them yet.
Tension built for moments, then twin massive wolves appeared, hauling what looked like a sled.
Eight or so folks rode inside, along with assorted goods.
They sped past the group swiftly, vanishing into the gloom.
"Huh, that's… one mode of travel, I guess." Maeve whispered, though none among them could tame wildlife.
"Right, perhaps we snag a beast handler; speed up the journey that way." Vritra agreed.
Pedestrian progress dragged on endlessly.
They also required a guide familiar with the routes and perils.
"Onward, more folks might lie ahead."
Thus, the band pressed on.
