Ryan was very fast. With two teleports he closed in on the black-armored bear and stopped a little over 500 meters away from it, hiding in a large tree and concealing his aura rather than hunting it.
"Copy first!"
With a thought, Ryan copied the black-armored bear's Advanced Defense Talent and immediately began to fuse it.
Fusing an Advanced Defense Talent wasn't painful for Ryan, and his mind remained very clear. Even if a fierce beast attacked him now, he could fight back in time, so there was no danger.
Ten minutes passed. Ryan broke into a light sweat and completed the fusion of the Advanced Defense Talent.
"I can feel it. It's just a little short of transforming my Advanced Defense Talent. My earlier guess should be right: as long as I gather three Advanced Defense Talents, I can fuse them into one Top Defense Talent!" Ryan muttered.
