I am the God of Technology

Chapter 262 A Wish

What was going through Dante’s head at this moment could be simply summed up in one sentence.

‘That’s… my wife?’

Beatrice was only distracted for a second because while she managed to clear one segment of players, others too charged in. After all, these were virtual bodies, and death only meant some in-game penalties, not that they would truly lose their lives.

However, for the trio here, this wasn’t the same thing, so they had to treat the matter with unparalleled seriousness.

Unfortunately, Beatrice and Portia were slightly handicapped since they could not leave ten meters of the quantum marker, or with their stats, they could probably use Ultra Instinct level movement to knock down everyone at once.

As great as Quantum Transportation was, it was also limited in the sense that only the quantum marker they teleported to was considered safe. So Dante could not place quantum markers in every meter of space around him to create a makeshift free zone for the mother and daughter duo.

That was why they had to adopt a defensive posture rather than attacking and could only use ranged attacks.

Beatrice continually launched fists into the sky, causing huge explosive shockwaves that could likely shatter an entire planet. It said more about the players here that only those really close and unguarded actually died, but others took it head-on and were only blown back.

It made Dante curious and a little daring. While the AI of this world was also quite powerful, since this was one of the corporation’s best and most popular worlds, it was not at the level of what the school used that made Dante wary.

If it weren’t for the fact that he did not want to rush into using Quantum Core and exposing it before he got the method to create his own quantum worlds from the corporation, he would have used it here and now to change the rules of this event to be exclusive to him and the mother-daughter duo.

However, he could try other things. Looking at the players who were firing beams and ki blasts at Beatrice to counter her onslaught, while others tried to sneak in from the sides to suppress her, Dante had an idea.

He opened his quantum space and took out a nuclear pistol. Since this world could support energy beams and waves, and the DBZ world was even known to have somewhat advanced tech, it shouldn’t be a problem to use this much.

He aimed and fired rapidly at a few players. The recoil was the same as firing a normal gun because the bullets contained the miniature nuclear reaction safely within. Only upon contact would they explode, and they could be remotely controlled using the AI chip.

To Dante’s surprise, this maneuver was quite effective. The nuclear explosions that occurred in the sky were fatal to players who did not protect themselves with their Ki at the first moment, causing many to be directly removed from the event.

As for Beatrice and Portia, they had no worries about being close to the explosion, as fallout and radiation were terrified of them rather than they being terrified of it. As for Dante, the heat, shockwave, and radiation from the explosion were just energy that was converted by his Gluttonous Inferno, which he released to protect him.

He could have simply used space magic to form a barrier or even entered sub-space to negate the effect completely, but he had been traumatized by that, even though he knew that sub-space in the main universe and quantum worlds were empty.

Only sub-space in the First Gate had beings within.

The players were shocked by this sudden change. They did not immediately think of a nuclear weapon and thought that it was the aftereffects of an unknown beam technique, which made many resist rushing forward.

Beatrice glanced at Dante with surprise, pleased with the drop in pressure. Meanwhile, Portia had been patting Gohan on the head the entire time and telling him what a good boy he was.

Gohan was bashfully swinging his leg, not knowing what to say to the nice, tall, and beautiful lady. While this was ongoing, Dende had already finished the first wish and brought everyone back.

Krillin, Vegeta, and the Namekians returned to life. Dende then looked back uncertainly as Gohan informed him to send everyone back to Earth for now. Dende began making the wish while Portia left Gohan alone and turned her face to the side with a cold look.

From there, Frieza rushed over with a look of desperation and greed on his face.

“Lowly trash, get out of my way! I must wish for immortality this instant!” he roared with madness in his eyes, the golden glowing Kakarot chasing closely behind.

“YOU’RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE, FRIEZAAAAA!!” Kakarot bellowed with rage, grabbing the ’emperor’ by the tail and tossing him backward while he screamed with fear and regret.

Portia looked away since Kakarot could clearly handle the fellow on his own and checked the progress of the summoning. Dende was just about done making everyone return to Earth, leaving only himself and Gohan behind.

Dende turned to Gohan, who was glancing at Portia. Portia smiled and squatted to Dende’s level, rubbing his bald green head as she made her request.

“Please wish for my son-in-law to have his genes perfected. He’s the one standing over there, and his name is Dante.”

“O-Okay…” Dende shyly replied and turned to Porunga, raising his hands as he began making the wish in Namekian.

Meanwhile, the waiting players who were partially cowed saw this and became crazed. One person even flew towards Porunga, unleashing a beam attack.

“If I can’t have it, no one can!” he roared.

After all, what could you do to him? He would ruin your day and hard work by killing Porunga, but the worst you could do was blacklist him in the game. Even if you camped or griefed this account, he could just log in with another and go somewhere you will never find him.

“How dare you?!” Beatrice was furious as she delivered a kick, causing the beam to be blasted in another direction, striking an innocent player and turning them into space dust.

Yet, inspired by that first player, the others began focusing on Porunga. They sneered and jeered at Beatrice, using player lingo to insult her and her five generations down and upwards.

After all, he could block one, but could she block them all?

“Hmph, overestimating yourselves,” Portia’s cold voice came.

She simply spun an arm in a clockwise manner rapidly, causing a huge suction force to occur that pulled all the wayward beams away from Porunga and towards her. When they converged, she simply grabbed and compressed them into one giant multicolored ball of energy the size of a small car. .

With a smile, she opened her mouth slightly and sucked in. The energy ball was like a roll of spaghetti on a fork, immediately pulled into Portia’s mouth as her Gluttony and Devour superpowers began working in tandem.

The players could only watch in stunned shock as their strongest attacks were ‘drank’ by this woman, and she even released a small burp afterward, showing great satisfaction.

Meanwhile, Porunga had already worked on the request as his eyes glowed red for a while, and he responded to Dende that his wish had been granted.

Dante, who had stopped firing and was calmly watching the proceedings, knew that the moment of truth had come. He felt the familiar surge of quantum energy enter his body as the rules of this world, the rules of reality, and the binding agent that was his superpower began to communicate.

Dante did not have time to even pray for it to work as the surge in his body suddenly began to grow in power and force, coursing through his body crazily and repeatedly. He roared as he felt his entire body heat up in a good way, endless power coursing through him as he could faintly hear the sound of locks being shattered in the corner of his hearing.

His Raging Blood Halberd technique and Primal Ape method began to activate and run on their own, surging along with the strange force as they rapidly passed through their stages, breaking through twice to reach the peak of their realms.

100% Perfection Realm Martial God!

100% Grand Knight!

Dante felt as if he were reborn. Unfortunately, the two magical methods did not benefit from this, but it didn’t matter anymore as the biggest thing holding Dante back had always been his gene locks.

With them gone and virtually smashed through, he could now rise as high as he wanted using the Apocalypse World as a backdrop. In fact, if he was willing, he could sell another vial of Phoenix Nirvana Fire and purchase the actual Absorption superpower permanently for himself.

However, there was no need for that.

Dante’s change was felt by Beatrice and Portia, who were overjoyed. Portia told Dende and Gohan to quickly rush and get to the ship so they could leave the planet while the other players glared sullenly as Porunga disappeared and the Namekian Dragon Balls turned to stone since Grand Elder Guru perished.

No longer needed to stay here, Dante smiled and took the two out of the quantum world, leaving a bunch of furious and unhappy players who felt like cuckolds.

Back in the Portinari clan’s manor, the trio appeared. Portia looked ruddy and healthy due to the energy she had just consumed, while Beatrice looked tired, as activating her enhancements to the max drained her carefully rationed energy.

As such, Dante held her and gently helped her sit down while she panted slightly, sweat forming on her forehead. Dante was in a good mood as he gently placed her hand on his lap and let her rest while carefully stroking her hair.

Portia glanced at them and shook her head, deciding to give them privacy. She left to go and find Augeus, who was now swamped with work since Portia had come back, and many clans as well as factions in the universe were trying to curry favor with the Portinari clan.

After all, most of the footage from the council chamber had been circulated around the upper echelons but had not trickled down to the general public. Portia did not care about this and did not pressure them to inform the public because doing so would just cause trouble.

The clans and factions of the universe could see the trend of interest moving from the Zero Gate to the enigmatic First Gate, and as a ‘top fighter,’ Portia was someone they had to be on good terms with.

Interestingly, Lara was going through the opposite right now. Knowing that the Zero Gate was private property of every universe, used as a training ground to produce fighters for the First Gate, many factions were not willing to leave ownership of the school to her.

The ones causing the most trouble were the Eternal Alumni, one of the top 20 factions. They were made up of graduates from the Eternal Academy’s Unique Batch who did not reach the C rank before their last foray into the Zero Gate and so did not know about the First Gate.

Rather, they wanted to get back into the Zero Gate and cultivate higher, but the school always stopped them on the grounds that they had their turn when they were students and now the current students were having their turn.

Now that this faction knew about the First Gate, they were even more feral. They had picked up from Portia’s speech that the source of Zero Energy that they used to upgrade their superpowers came from the First Gate, so they must absolutely get there!

And to think, this was without them knowing about the Black Spire, Spire Points, and the ability to buy superpowers or upgrade them. If they knew, Lara would probably be facing down an army right now.
