Chapter 1628: Three Locks
Chapter 1628: Three Locks
“What do you want to talk about?” Nathan asked.
“I’m wondering what you will do next, especially with so many cores?”
Nathan explained, “As usual, since I usually have a higher absorption rate than you guys, due to your condition being limited by the situation, I will absorb them.”
“Oh, we’re talking about evolution. There is no way I can skip this.” Xolotl suddenly rushed to them.
And it turned out he wasn’t the only one.
Fenrir, Nidhogg, and Orochi also came.
“Why are you guys so fast when we’re talking about cores?” Nathan shook his head helplessly.
“We can’t let this opportunity slip by. I’ve done my part in the battle. Surely, I’m qualified to be the next!” Orochi smirked.
“…” Tiamat was quite speechless. These divine beasts had humbled themselves before Nathan.
At the same time, she could somehow understand why they ended up this way. Nathan had gained their respect. In addition, his power was so strong that it would make a huge difference.
She couldn’t help but recall what happened in the past. The young gods would do the same thing before they became arrogant.
Nathan waved his hand. “There are alpha class aliens. For the time being, I am planning to hand over the alpha class aliens to Luna and Evelyn, at least the aliens on their own battlefield.
“Meanwhile, we still have three alpha class cores, including the one that we got from Erendtall.
“So, I’m thinking about increasing the amount of my ena as well as a few familiars.
“As for the elite class aliens, I think about distributing them to Selena and the others. They can’t absorb the alpha class alien cores, so this works perfectly. The rest of the cores will be distributed accordingly.”
“In that case, you probably need to know this.” Tiamat paused. “I’ve heard that there are locks on our abilities. From what I can see, there are three locks left.”
“Three locks?”
“Yes. If my prediction is correct, they are at 25 million ena, 50 million ena, and 100 million ena.”
“Hmm?” Nathan looked down, contemplating. “I’ve expected the next lock will be 25 million. Originally, I wanted to break my own lock. The original Nathan had become a true god as well, so if I could unlock my power, the Soul Contract might be upgraded as well.”
“About that.” Tiamat sighed. “From what I have observed from everyone and gathered from your memory, I’ve made a prediction on the locks. Right now, we are able to use our divine rules just fine or even unlock a portion of our divine body.
“So, from what I can see, the next lock will allow us to fully utilize our divine body, maybe a portion of our godhood as well.
“At 50 million ena, we will definitely unlock our full potential, such as our full godhood as well as our original power. At least, this is true for these guys.
“For me, I will need the last lock to be opened to unleash the true power of the true god.”
Nathan thought for a moment. “That’s my original plan. I think it’s better for me to unlock it first. This way, my absorption rate can reach 100%, meaning more ena for everyone. And depending on what the Soul Contract will be capable of next, I can do a lot more. The Soul Contract has been helping me the whole time, so I’m wondering if I can actually incorporate the Soul Contract with my divine rule next time.”
“You had reached 25 million ena in the past, right?”
“Well, as you had seen from my memory, yes.” Nathan nodded.
“That’s my point. Even if you reach 25 million ena right now, it will be useless. Do you understand why I mentioned the three locks first?”
“!!!” Everything instantly clicked in Nathan’s mind. Now that he thought about it, the original Nathan had reached the level of a true god. If that were the case, the three locks should be applied to his body.
In other words, if he wanted to upgrade his quality as well as the Soul Contract, he might have to complete his divine rules first. There was a possibility that he might also need his divine body to evolve.
When Nathan thought about it, he couldn’t help but say, “So that’s how it is…”
It was no wonder that Tiamat said the topic was quite unique, but not really important. They could talk about it at another time, but they definitely needed to discuss this matter.
Nathan crossed his arms. “If that’s the case, I think I know what I should do next.”
Tiamat became curious. Nathan had shown a dazzling mind on the battlefield all this time, so she wondered what kind of arrangement he had come up with this time. “What is it?”
“I think about pushing you, Xolotl, and Garuda to reach 25 million ena. Only the three of you!” Nathan’s expression turned solemn.
“What?”
“This is racism.”
“You can’t be that selective.”
Fenrir, Nidhogg, and Orochi complained.
Nathan raised one finger, making a gesture as if he wanted to say something else, so they needed to shut their mouths first.
Fenrir and the others glared at Nathan, demanding an explanation.
“While it’s true that I will be focusing on your ena, it doesn’t mean I’m going to deprive everyone. Instead of ena from the cores, I’m thinking about pushing your evolution progress.”
“Evolution progress?!” Fenrir and the others remembered something. Nathan had once shown that they hadn’t reached their most powerful form yet. In other words, they might need that evolution if they wanted to become a true god.
The ena was necessary, but helping with their evolution relied heavily on Nathan’s karma.
In other words, evolution is worth more than mere ena. It allowed Nathan to concentrate everything he had on Garuda, Xolot, and Tiamat while still satisfying everyone.
They looked at each other, thinking it was worth a shot.
“Since you understand now, why don’t you guys help me clean up the battlefield? Maybe the ones contributing the most will be the first ones. Who knows? Maybe the first one will have more progress than the others?” Nathan smirked.
“!!!” Their eyes lit up. They turned around and started running. “I’m first!”
“No, it’s me!”
“You guys can argue. I will focus on working!”
Nathan just shook his head helplessly before scoffing. “Heh.”
