Divine Path System

Whoosh!

Shuaa!

Varian finished easily infiltrated and slaughtered the hideout. 

He collected the bracelets and set off for the next dungeon.

After finishing five off dungeons in two hours, of which an hour and a half was spent on journeys, he had to stop. 

Even though he wasn't injured, his aura reserves were almost depleted. After all, his enemies included high and peak Level 4s for regular combat and low Level 5s for assassination.. 

Varian dared to bathe again, but this time, he warned the System against any misadventure. 

It reluctantly complied. 

'Status.'

[Body Path (Enhanced) Level 4: 900/1000

Space Path Level 2: 200/200

Lightning Path Level 3: 350/400

Morpher Path Level 3: 50/400]

Space Path was still not advancing. To be a Level 3 Space Awakener, Varian needed to find a way to ensure he could use space block around his body and move with it. 

Essentially, create a mobile space armor around himself. This would increase his defensive and offensive capabilities. 

To advance to Level 4 lightning path, he needed a more nuanced control. Expertise in shaping stable structures out of his element. 

For instance, swords and spears. 

Until now, he was only able to create lightning balls, lightning arcs and lightning beams, which were just bigger lightning arcs. 

If he could shape lightning to his desired shape, then mana could be used much more efficiently. 

At the same time, compressing the mana into a structure would enable him greater offensive powers. 

Morpher… he needed to increase the prana flowing from his heart. It seemed like getting heavily injured could work. 

Finally, Enhanced Path. He just needed to increase the connection between the chi and his cells. 

With System's help, it was done during combat. The question remaining was his future path. 

If he trained in one path extremely, when he reached Level 7, he'd awaken as an Extreme. 

For instance, extreme training in speed would make him an Extreme Awakener with a higher speed stat. 

If he trained normally, then he'd be a Super Human Awakener. Basically, the evolved version of Enhanced. 

'Too early to think all of that.' He brushed them off. 

"Boo, examine all the bracelets and see if you can make something that can access all the hideouts, like a master card." He proposed his idea. 

"It's possible. Each bracelet has similarities, but also distinctions based on its dungeon. I need more data." Boo gave a green flag. 

"More data? I am glad to collect more." Varian grinned and resumed the slaughter.

Perhaps he enjoyed it too much. Even when Boo announced they had enough data, he ended a couple more dungeons.

He collected hundred samples in four days. 

Demon Abyss was busy with their spy networks rooted out by Enigma's Shadow Guardians. 

Since they received no emergency report from the hide out commanders, they assumed things were alright and delayed the meetings. 

By the fifth day, Boo used the materials found in the hideouts and created the master keys.

They can be used to locate and enter any hideout of any dungeon.

Varian grinned as he held the white bracelet. 

"Master… your smile is too scary." Boo, the ghost AI, shivered.

"It better be, for what I'm about to do now will have them crying." Varian smiled arrogantly. 

Then they visited planetary headquarters of different power organizations. 

Adventure Guild. Trade Union. 

Important Military Bases. Even Military Academies.

Including the Prime Family Mansions. 

Of course, they didn't really 'visit' them in a proper sense. Instead, in stealth mode, Varian 'left' the gifts to every power, and the method to manufacture them as well.

That was the beginning of Abyssals' nightmare. 

Just when they realized a hundred headquarters were wiped out, their spies' message came as a bolt from the blue.

'Humans developed a device that could enter hideout of any dungeon!'

Initially, the human authorities were skeptical. But they couldn't write it off either. After confirming that the same gift was delivered to every power, it was even more clear that it was no laughing matter. 

Who can infiltrate a heavily guarded military base, walk in front of the General's room and place a box there and leave without being caught?

Just how strong was this person? Level 9? Or Perhaps even a new Sovereign?

Would they do such a thing for a prank?

Adventurer Guild was the first to test out the use of this 'Omni-key'. 

The result blew their mind and soon, every power verified it one by one. 

To their and even Varian's surprise, the Omni-key even worked for Dungeons on other planets.

Boo just shrugged it off. "Abyssals are the manufacturers for every planet's dungeons. It's the same thing after all."

Varian patted the cute, chubby little ghost and praised it to no end.

Thus, an emergency meeting was declared and the Federation government's vice chiefs, Level 9s, came to a decision. 

Coordinate the attacks and destroy every hideout all across the federation. 

In an unprecedented move in modern human history, all dungeons were blocked off from civilian use. 

High Level Awakener personally oversaw the mission 'Purge' and every suitable awakener was deployed. 

Army issued the mission to Regular Army personnel, Planetary Guards, Special Forces Teams.

Adventurer Guild saw the highest influx of adventures ever since Pluto war.

Prime Families announced deep participation and took the lead in the mission with their vassals. 

Trade Union gave an unprecedented discount to all helpful products, which was the second most talked thing after 'Purge'.

The missions of Military Academies across the eight planets were also filled with 'Purge' missions.

Abyssals had little time to react when the first wave started. 

In fact, the first attack was by a Level 3 Old Lady who recently lost her grandson to the assassination. 

She collapsed on the corpses of Abyssals and wept. 

Her tears sparked the fire and soon, every parent, every sibling and every friend who met the criteria joined through whatever organization they could. 

The actual number of people who lost their loved ones to assassination was actually low. 

The majority didn't want to lose their beloved. They wanted to secure the future of their children and grandchildren, even if by a little. 

The calls didn't stop in both human capitals and Abyss capitals. Their natures, however, was vastly different. 

The story of the 'gifts' leaked and public pressured the government to release the information of the sender. 

The government also disclosed the name on the note. 

It was a simple word. Yet it shook every human to the core. 

Dreamer.
