Chapter 94: New dangers are coming
[Besides, if you give me permission, your body can naturally generate one evolution point every five minutes. However, the process will continuously consume your mana. You will constantly feel as though you are maintaining a novice rank spell every second of the day.]
Victor swallowed hard.
His heart pounded violently as he stared into the empty space before him. Even after everything he had witnessed, those words still sounded impossible.
This world system had truly become a supreme cheat.
It could evolve anything.
What kind of terrifying ability was that?
Victor could not contain his excitement anymore.
"Hahahahahaha! Are you serious? You can really do something like that? You are incredible! But how did you even become capable of such a thing?" he asked with disbelief filling his voice.
The world system snorted proudly.
[Humph! Do not underestimate me. I was not always capable of this. Around five thousand years ago, I obtained a fragment of a cosmic treasure. Although it was only a tiny fragment, it allowed me to evolve into my current form.]
Victor slowly nodded.
That explanation actually made sense.
Otherwise, there was simply no way an ordinary planetary system could suddenly possess such heaven defying abilities.
Only a cosmic treasure could explain such a miraculous transformation.
"Alright I am leaving", Victor left the white room after saying that.
...
Outside world,
[Ding! The World System has fully recovered and evolved.]
[Ding! From this moment onward, every monster you kill will reward you with System Points.]
[Ding! Special events are no longer required to earn points.]
The announcement instantly spread across every corner of the world.
Whether humans were fighting monsters, hiding inside cities, or exploring dangerous places, everyone heard the same message.
For a brief moment, silence covered the planet.
Then countless cheers erupted.
"Hahahaha! We can gain points every day now!"
"So that was what happened! The system was evolving all this time!"
"We thought it had abandoned us!"
Inside the Federation headquarters, Arthur burst into laughter.
The heavy burden weighing on his heart finally disappeared.
He had genuinely feared that the World System had malfunctioned forever.
Now all those worries vanished.
"The system never abandoned humanity," Arthur said while smiling brightly.
"It was simply evolving."
Far away from the capital, on the roof of a ruined ten story building, Diana quietly stood under the open sky.
The announcement had reached her as well.
Unlike everyone else, she did not feel excited.
Her beautiful eyes remained filled with worry.
She still had no idea where Victor had disappeared.
She had searched everywhere she could, yet there had been no trace of him.
Every passing hour only made her more anxious.
Suddenly, she sensed someone’s presence behind her.
Her instincts reacted immediately.
She was about to attack.
However, the moment she turned around, her entire body froze.
Victor.
Hot tears instantly welled up in her eyes.
Without saying a single word, she rushed forward and tightly embraced him.
She held him with all her strength, almost as though she feared he would disappear again if she loosened her grip even slightly.
"Victor!"
"Where were you?"
"Are you all right?"
"Please tell me that you are okay."
She spoke while crying uncontrollably.
Victor gently smiled.
He softly patted her head, comforting her like he always did.
"What could possibly happen to me?"
"Look at me."
"I am perfectly fine."
Diana carefully looked him over from head to toe.
There was not even the slightest injury on his body.
Even so, she refused to let go.
For nearly ten minutes, she silently remained in his embrace until her emotions finally settled.
Only then did she slowly release him.
She wiped away the remaining tears before looking at him seriously.
"Now tell me."
"What exactly happened?"
Victor gave her a simplified explanation.
He told her about being taken away by the World System and the opportunities he had received.
However, he deliberately hid the most important details.
The World System itself had forbidden him from revealing its greatest secret.
Besides, Diana possessed eighty nine percent Heavenly Demon Bloodline.
As her bloodline continued awakening in the future, the heavenly demons might learn something through her bloodline.
Therefore, there was no need for him to risk exposing classified information.
Diana quietly listened.
Although she sensed that Victor was hiding something, she respected his decision.
She did not ask any further questions.
Instead, she changed the topic.
"What are you planning to do now?" she asked.
Victor looked toward the distant wilderness before answering.
"You should return to the capital first."
"You need proper rest."
"I will deal with the monsters."
Diana hesitated for a moment before nodding.
"I will rest for a while."
Victor continued giving instructions.
"After that, bring every remaining human nation under the Human Alliance."
"There is no reason for so many separate empires to continue existing."
"Humanity needs complete unity if we want to survive what is coming."
"Once that is done, begin the planet’s development phase together with Nova."
The moment he finished speaking, Nova’s familiar voice came through his wristband.
"Victor, I cannot establish a connection with your neural link."
"What is happening?"
Victor smiled helplessly.
"The World System does not allow it anymore."
"You can still communicate with me through the wristband or any other external communication device."
"Build countless miniature drones and spread them across the planet."
"They can create a worldwide communication network."
Nova immediately understood.
"I will begin the project at once."
After talking for a while longer, Diana finally departed.
Victor quietly watched her leave.
Only after she completely disappeared into the distance did he shift his attention elsewhere.
At that exact moment, the vine that had remained asleep under the World System’s authority suddenly awakened.
The emerald vine happily wrapped itself around Victor’s body like an affectionate pet that had finally reunited with its master.
Within seconds, it transformed into a beautiful living armor.
Victor gently touched the vine with a smile.
"It is good to have you back."
The vine happily swayed around him.
Victor slowly lifted his gaze toward the vast wilderness stretching beyond the ruined city.
"It is finally time."
"I should begin hunting."
He had now reached the Martial Sage Realm.
Although he had not yet reached the level of a Warrior Sage, his strength had still increased beyond imagination.
His combat prowess had already reached nearly three hundred million stars.
Compared to his previous self, the difference was like heaven and earth.
He extended his hand.
A crimson sword instantly appeared from his storage ring.
Its sharp blade reflected the faint sunlight.
Victor stepped onto the edge of the ruined building.
Far below, countless monsters wandered through the broken streets.
This wilderness had once forced him to move carefully.
Back then, he had constantly feared encountering an S Rank monster.
Now everything had changed.
He no longer feared any creature on this planet.
A confident smile appeared on his face.
"Let us begin."
Without hesitation, Victor jumped.
His body rapidly descended from the top of the building.
His head pointed downward while his feet faced the sky.
The wind roared loudly around him as he accelerated toward the ground.
The monsters below gradually noticed the figure falling from above.
Before any of them could react...
Boom!
Victor crashed into the middle of the street like a meteor.
A deafening explosion echoed throughout the area.
The road instantly shattered beneath him.
Massive cracks spread across the concrete in every direction.
Clouds of dust rose into the air.
Every nearby monster immediately stopped moving.
They all stared toward the center of the impact.
Standing there was a lone figure covered in a living purple armor.
The terrifying aura surrounding him filled every monster with instinctive fear.
This region was mainly occupied by C Rank and B Rank monsters.
Normally, they ruled this area without challenge.
Today, however, every one of them felt overwhelming danger.
Victor slowly raised his crimson sword.
There was no emotion in his eyes.
Only absolute calmness.
Swish!
A crimson sword light flashed across the battlefield.
The attack was so fast that none of the monsters even realized what had happened.
Several seconds later...
Every monster standing before him split cleanly into two halves.
Blood erupted into the air like countless crimson fountains.
Bodies collapsed one after another.
The entire street transformed into a sea of blood.
[Ding! You have killed twenty one C Rank monsters.]
[Ding! You have obtained eight hundred and forty Evolution Points.]
[Ding! You have killed nine B Rank monsters.]
[Ding! You have obtained seven hundred and twenty Evolution Points.]
Victor calmly nodded.
The World System had already explained the reward structure.
F Rank monsters rewarded five points.
E Rank monsters rewarded ten points.
D Rank monsters rewarded twenty points.
C Rank monsters rewarded forty points.
B Rank monsters rewarded eighty points.
A Rank monsters rewarded one hundred and sixty points.
S Rank monsters rewarded three hundred and twenty points.
Altogether, he had earned one thousand five hundred and sixty Evolution Points from a single attack.
Victor remained standing where he was.
He did not continue hunting immediately.
Instead, he wanted to test how useful these Evolution Points truly were.
He opened his status panel.
Several new options immediately appeared before his eyes.
[Light Spell: Radiant Spear.]
[Required Evolution Points: 200.]
He could instantly comprehend the spell by spending two hundred Evolution Points.
His eyes shifted downward.
[Space Spell: Space Portal.]
[Required Evolution Points: 1000.]
Then he looked at the final category.
[Time Spell: Time Stop.]
[Required Evolution Points: 5000.]
[Time Spell: Time Acceleration.]
[Required Evolution Points: 5000.]
Victor quietly calculated everything.
After advancing into the Adept Realm, he had only mastered one flame spell.
There had never been enough time to study the others.
According to the grimoire, he still needed to comprehend seventy nine common elemental spells.
Besides those, he also needed three space spells and two time spells.
After finishing the calculations, he estimated that approximately twenty eight thousand Evolution Points would allow him to instantly master every remaining Adept Rank spell recorded inside the grimoire.
A bright smile appeared on his face.
The more monsters he killed...
The stronger he would become.
His growth would only continue accelerating.
The monsters across the entire planet were about to experience absolute despair.
....
Far beyond the Milky Way Galaxy, countless galaxies away from Ethereum, an enormous supreme planet silently revolved through the endless universe.
Its size was at least ten times larger than Ethereum itself.
Powerful winged humanoid beings lived there.
Each possessed a pair of majestic wings and sharp black horns growing from their foreheads.
Every single one radiated an incomparably fierce aura.
Inside the Resource Gathering Department of their civilization, several powerful officials were reviewing countless reports.
One high ranking commander looked toward a kneeling subordinate.
"What is the latest report regarding the primitive planet where we sent that youngling to establish control?"
"Have we received any news?"
The subordinate respectfully lowered his head.
"My Lord..."
"We believe that the youngling has most likely perished."
The commander’s expression immediately darkened.
"What did you say?"
"How is that possible?"
"That insignificant planet should only contain weak natives."
"There should not even be a single Lord Realm expert there."
"So how could our youngling possibly die?"
The subordinate remained kneeling.
"We do not know the exact reason."
"Our connection was completely severed."
"We recommend dispatching a reconnaissance team immediately."
The commander slowly narrowed his eyes.
A dangerous killing intent quietly spread throughout the hall.
"Very well."
"Prepare a scout team."
"I want to know exactly what happened on that insignificant planet."
