Erik cracked open the Cricul's skull using a sharp rock, exposing the creature's brain matter. He searched through the tissue until he found what he was looking for.
Using his fingers, he extracted the brain crystal, not caring about ravaging the beast's brain. After cleaning it thoroughly with a cloth to remove any blood and tissue, he took a deep breath and swallowed the crystal whole.
[Cricul's brain crystal gained. Starting the analysis.]
[Analysis complete.]
[100 DNA points are required to extract the power.]
[5170 DNA points detected. Extraction is not advised; the host has incompatible DNA.]
[Extraction aborted]
With that, Erik was done. He leveled up and got a new brain crystal power. He only needed to find a place to absorb it in peace. He wouldn't do so at Amber's house, since he didn't really know what happened to him during the process.
