Strongest Hammer God

Kyle looked at the bottles and saw three pills in each of them.

After cross-referencing them with the shop, his brows rose.

‘Wow! 300 Contribution Points per bottle! They essentially handed me 600 Contribution Points in the form of treasures!’ he thought.

‘The Energy density is extremely high, and the control is also very precise.’

‘In fact, one of these pills already counts as a good treasure, and they gave me six!’

Kyle thought back to the other jobs he could have taken.

Access to Class C Resources was pretty good, but from what Kyle could read, he would only get one Treasure worth 100 Contribution Points per century. If he wanted to get this thing on his own, he would need to save his Contribution Points for 600 years.

‘You know, being an Exchange Seeker pays pretty well, actually.’

‘Well, down the hatch!’

Kyle opened one of the bottles and put the first pill into his mouth.

BOOOM!

The Energy exploded out of the pill as soon as it touched his mouth, and it violently charged towards his ninth Cluster.

BANG!

The Energy tore his Cluster in two pieces, and Kyle felt like his heart had stopped.

But then, the Energy went to Kyle’s eighth Cluster and tore its Energy out before dumping it into the ninth Cluster.

Kyle’s Biological Energy dropped to rock bottom, but some of the pill’s Energy also entered his eighth Cluster, refilling it.

This process was repeated five more times before all the Energy vanished, and when Kyle looked at his ninth Cluster…

‘Wow! Done!’ he thought.

‘That barely took three fucking seconds!’

At this moment, Kyle’s ninth Cluster was shaking like a scared child who had been kicked by a grown man.

Kyle almost felt bad for the poor thing.

The next moment, Kyle’s ninth Cluster shone brightly.

Its brightness increased, and a bit later, it built a connection with Kyle’s Center.

The Energy inside Kyle’s Center spread to the ninth Cluster, filling it with its own Energy.

The ninth Cluster consumed the foreign Energy and transformed it into Biological Energy, which was pushed to the eighth Cluster.

The eighth Cluster upgraded the Biological Energy and spread it to Kyle’s Minor Clusters.

‘This feels amazing!’ Kyle thought as he felt his body explode with power yet again.

He took out his hammer and looked at the same object he had hit earlier.

His body bulged, and he shot forward.

Kyle’s speed shot through the roof as he used much more Biological Energy than before. He reached the object in an instant and struck.

BOOOOM!

A gigantic crevice appeared in the object, and it almost fell into two pieces.

‘Wow!’ Kyle thought as he witnessed his own power.

A Seeker’s body didn’t want to use more Biological Energy when moving than it was recovering. After all, it needed the Biological Energy to heal.

That was still the case, but the ninth Cluster had vastly increased Kyle’s Biological Energy Regeneration, and his body was fine with using more.

Kyle didn’t have more Biological Energy after unlocking the ninth Cluster. It was just that his speed of regeneration was much higher since the ninth Cluster siphoned Energy from Kyle’s Center.

‘My power increased by another 50%!’ Kyle thought.

Kyle also took note of his hammer, which was still vibrating.

‘Still strong enough. Luckily, I don’t have to exchange my weapon yet again.’

Kyle did a bit of math in his head and cross-referenced it with how his hammer had acted just now.

‘I think my body is stronger than the body of a new Crusher. As far as I know, the advancement bonus is about retaining your physical power. Crushers who advance after unlocking eight Clusters probably have a body about as powerful as an average 10/13 Primal.’

‘I think I actually have a realistic chance at killing Crushers now, and I can probably also kill Level Twelve Primal Beasts. Their bodies are still stronger than mine, but I have enough power to kill them, assuming I hit them properly.’

Kyle looked at his hammer. ‘I just have to be careful about my hammer. Most Level Twelve Primal Beasts can’t break it, but if it takes the all-out attack of a Level Twelve Primal Beast that specializes in brutal attacks, it might break. Something like a rhino, bull, or metal tortoise could be dangerous.’

‘Luckily, most Crushers use Element-based attacks, which means my weapon is not in a lot of danger when fighting those.’

Kyle remembered the Crusher of Table Feast, who had tested the Fulfilled Transcendents before the Star Seeking.

Back then, that Crusher had been infinitely more powerful than Kyle.

‘But now, I could probably fight him evenly.’

‘In fact…’

Kyle remembered the Core Elder of the Highman’s Club.

‘I can probably win against him convincingly.’

‘My power has already reached the level of Crushers. Well, new Crushers.’

‘As far as I know, Crushers focus on Laws again. They get a huge boost of Energy, and the best way to utilize Energy is to use it with a Complex Law. ‘

‘Additionally, while the Primal Realm doesn’t focus on the mind, it still improves it a little bit with every unlocked Cluster.’

‘I also remember that Sebastian’s hiring bonus was related to the Crusher Realm, and he has a much greater Affinity with an Element. All Crushers probably have amazing Affinities.’

‘My Complex Law was at the peak in the Transcendent Realm, and it’s still very strong in the Primal Realm, but for Crushers, it’s probably just a bit above average.’

‘They can comprehend Level Three Laws, and with just two Level Three Laws, they can make a Complex Law that’s even a bit stronger than mine.’

‘New Crushers haven’t been able to take advantage of their improved Affinities yet, but Crushers who have been in their Realm for a couple of centuries are probably so powerful that they can easily kill me.’

‘Still a long way to go.’

‘Anyway, I should return to my training.’

Yet, when Kyle thought about his training, he became a bit lost.

‘Still don’t have time. An alert could come in at any moment, and I still only have 22 years left.’

Kyle scratched the back of his head and looked at his tenth Cluster, which was in his head.

‘I mean, I only need to know a Level Three Law to unlock this one, and my Complex Law even counts as a Level 3.5 Law.’

‘I wonder…’

Kyle closed his eyes and focused on his tenth Cluster.

He pushed his Biological Energy into it, but it didn’t even react.

‘Gotta try something else,’ he thought.

Next, Kyle thought about his Complex Law and ordered his Core Spark to send… something… to the tenth Cluster.

The next moment, Kyle’s Biological Energy rushed through Kyle’s Core Spark on its own volition.

That infused it with the aura of the Law.

Usually, something like that would be pointless. It was a bit like writing “iron” on a piece of iron.

It was already iron. Writing “iron” on it wouldn’t change anything.

Yet, when the Biological Energy reached the tenth Cluster, it actually reacted.

It very, very slowly started to unlock.

‘Alright, this might take a while, but at least I don’t have to focus on it. This is more of an automatic process.’

‘Well, I don’t know what else I’m supposed to do now. I mean, this process happens automatically.’

‘When in doubt, hammer out!’ Kyle thought as he readied his hammer.

He would just do what he had always done.

Swing his hammer.
