Chapter 245: Power System
🕑 Added 2025-04-01 15:15:23 +0000 UTCIt took some time before they stopped arguing.
‘She originally did not want to involve herself much in the dojo, but now…’
Aleph sought Hua’s help to keep an eye on Senti… or so it was. Seeing the former actively involving herself in establishing the dojo, a wry smile appeared in his face.
Even he did not notice how much he was smiling over the past few days.
“There’s something I’d like to say.”
Aleph’s words caught the attention of the two.
“The past few days, I went to another world. I found a completely different system than the ones here. It’s a complete one that leads right to my current level.”
He told them about the Five Supers System.
“So, we can rank up to your level? And we only need to practice?”
Hua remained silent, though her thoughts aligned with Senti’s.
“That’s right. Some of them are still in the testing phase, but I already verified most of them.” He replied. “There’s a big hurdle when practicing stuff from another world. The established power system might not work for other worlds…”
Aleph listed the problems one by one. The most prominent of them all was the exclusiveness of the Five Supers System to that universe alone.
The differences between this world and Han Xiao’s are drastic enough to render that system mostly ineffective.
He did find a solution, though.
“I need you to become my Spirits.”
“Ah? What do we need to do?”
“Open up your hand.”
Aleph placed his right pointy finger on top of her palm.
The moment the skin contact occurred.
Patter-!
Something strange swept over the entire courtyard. The sound of water drops continued to ring metaphysically.
Hum-!
A circle of crimson flames rose up from the ground. It enveloped the three of them all at once.
Kree-!
Hua and Senti heard the cry of a beast. They looked up and saw it resembled the honkai beast where they got their ICHOR from—Garuda.
The giant flaming bird crashed down to the ground. The two instinctively braced themselves for impact, only to feel nothing.
Instead, they were immersed in a warm feeling. It continued until the visions of crimson flames disappeared and the surroundings went back to normal.
Nevertheless, a thought stuck closely to them.
“This…”
“It’s an Angel. One of my authorities is the [Spirit King]. I can designate ten individuals to receive a blessing from me. I gave you two the Angel, Gevurah. It’s based on your honkai genome. You’ll see its abilities once you use it.”
His long explanation did not stop there.
“You should be able to create something called ‘Qi’ inside your body.”
Click.
Right after he spoke, Hua discovered a bright red energy appearing on her palm. Contrary to honkai energy, it did not pose any threat to the body. It was surprisingly calm, moving completely along her thoughts.
“This… Qi. It’s very tranquil.” She commented. “It’s similar to the energy stated in fictional myths.”
Hua felt that this energy could grow stronger. This is where practice comes in. One would have to gather Qi to their body until they reach a certain threshold. They then break through that limit, thus becoming stronger step-by-step. Their endgame lies in the Transcendent Grade that Han Xiao reached.
Just then, Aleph saw numerous pop-ups appear in his sight.
[Achievement Obtained: Mobile Power System]
[Achievement Obtained: Kingship]
[Achievement Obtained: Another World’s Strengths]
Aside from the Achievement Hunter, there was also another prompt from somewhere else.
{Module Update Complete.}
{Current Users: 1}
{Generated Existence Power: +0.01%/Day}
{Detected Additional Channel. Data Projection Complete.}
{Perpetuity Pathway}
{Current Users: 1,450}
{Generated Existence Power: +0.03%/Day}
The [World], which was derived from the [Embryonic Power System], became active once again.
‘Power systems and the likes… So this is it.’
Things did not end here. Metatron also became active.
{Reminder. A specialized complex information processor has been detected. Place it under my command?}
‘Yes.’
{Affirmative. Connecting to the module… Connection Complete.}
{Parsing information… Complete.}
{The sub-skill, Recorder, has been created.}
A single panel expanded to a dozen other panels. They were separated to the people using the [Power System] Aleph possessed as well as the [Pathstriders] he chose for his [Path].
Seeing these dozen or so changes occur at the same time, Aleph gave them a glance before he closed the prompts.
Then, he proceeded to teach the knowledge he earned from the Sanctum.
“There’s a trick to boost your progress in the earlier stages…”
*****
Herta Space Station.
It is a huge spaceship built solely as Herta’s private laboratory. In a magician’s terms, it was her ivory tower.
Its biggest purpose aside from being a private laboratory was to gather the talents in the cosmos.
Things continued operating that way for years… until a few days ago.
“Miss Herta keeps appearing out of nowhere.”
“It’s not instantaneous teleportation. The people in our community chat looked for signs of spatial distortion but found nothing.”
“It must be one of her new discoveries.”
“Miss Herta looks good today, too.”
“Are we even talking about the same thing?!”
The hustle and bustle of the space station increased to a whole new height. Herta’s ghost-like appearances in most offices rendered everyone speechless. They won’t even notice she was there until moments later.
Today, one of them was destined to have this mystery solved.
“Isn’t this the door to the sample room..?”
The space station’s head—lead astronomer—looked at the doors in front of her in a daze.
Asta was a hundred percent sure it led to the sample room where botanical species were stored.
The scene beyond the door suggested otherwise.
She soon stepped inside it.
Bam.
The door closed on its own.
Just like magic, she found herself right inside Herta’s office.
In the midst of it was a dimly glowing projection. A triangular pedestal acted as its source. Various portraits of the Genius Society’s members could be seen on the opposite sides of the room.
Herta was seen staring at one of the portraits inside the room. She glanced at Asta and gave out her order..
“You came at the right time. I want you to open the backup generators after five minutes.”
“Understood.”
Snap-!
The door of the office opened up on its own. It revealed a completely different location from earlier.
Although bewildered, Asta left the room after giving a slight bow.
Only Herta was left inside the room.
