Chapter 98: Too Curious
After the meeting for the tournament tomorrow,
All of the other Ochyra University representatives went to prepare themselves for tomorrow, they already discuss what each of them can do and already made a plan for tomorrow.
Rex and the girls are currently in the other quiet room, they just started to meditate.
The place is different from the place where they did their meetings before, this place is smaller and can only accommodate five people.
It has five big boxes made of glass with a cushion in the middle to sit.
These glass boxes are called by the Faraday University students as the Priming Box, it is a place where all Awakened meditate to increase their power.
The Priming Box accommodates all types of Elemental Crystal just like Ochyra University’s VIP train but it is two ranks lower.
Although the Elemental Crystal in here is of lower rank, it is still good enough.
Rex takes the Mid Mana Charm Elixir from his inventory and drinks it in one go, it tastes sweet and he can definitely felt the changes immediately.
He adjusted the Elemental Crystal to lightning crystal before he sat back down.
The box turns bluish and it can be seen from the outside, lightning mana filled the room that makes Rex’s body tingles.
‘It’s enough, although it’s not as abundant as the VIP train it is still great’, Rex thought as he started to meditate.
Adhara and Rosie are also meditating in their respective box, they started way earlier than Rex because Rex needs to do something before.
~
10 minutes ago,
Rex separated from the girls for a brief moment with the excuse to go to the toilet, he wanted to do something.
From last night he was curious about something.
He thought that he could shrug it off but he eventually got too curious about it,
“Edward!“
“P“
“P“
“P“
Rex texted Edward, he’s spamming Edward like crazy.
“Bro, why the hell are you spamming?“, he said annoyedly, he’s currently in his room playing games when suddenly these rows of notifications from Rex came.
“Can I ask you for a favor?“
“Just say it, if you ask me something unreasonable I will definitely beat you up!“
“It’s not don’t worry, It’s about Adhara“
“What about her?“
~
Thirty minutes into the meditation,
Rex’s body is undergoing some changes, the lightning mana around his body becomes dense and it still becomes denser.
It envelopes his body completely in black, the black lightning current is sizzling inside the Prime Box.
Because of Rex’s Black Lightning nature, the lightning mana turns black upon being released from Rex’s body and it was a sight to behold.
Crack!
His body makes a cracking sound as a subtle lightning breeze blew.
Rex just enters the third rank and he can feel his body becomes closer to the lightning mana, it feels like he can control the lightning mana in the surrounding and bend them to his will.
It is a new feeling to Rex but he didn’t stop meditating, he didn’t want to waste the precious elixir he used.
After about four or five hours, Rex hears the Prime Box’s door next to him open.
It’s already noon turning night, he can tell from the lingering moonlight energy.
The effect from the Elixir he got from the system is astonishing, he can absorb literally tens of lightning mana in minutes! It was simply astonishing!
If anyone knows about this, they will definitely puke blood from shock.
Rex opens his eyes slowly, he then sees his stat,
<stats></stats>
Name: Rex Silverstar
Pack: Silverstar (1/2)
Level: 21 (712,500/1,000,000)
Race: High Werewolf
Full-Moon: 22 Days – Yule Moon
Berserk: 60%
Sanity: 75%
Mental: 42 (+32)
Strength: 95 (+19)
Agility: 48 (+2)
Endurance: 38 (+25)
Intelligence: 52
Attributable Stats: 0
<average human=”” adults=”” have=”” 5-7=”” points=”” for=”” each=”” stat=”” except=”” for=”” intelligence=””></average>
Looking at his intelligence stat, he was quite proud of it.
In just hours of time, he manages to raise his intelligence stat by 14.
‘I can raise roughly the same with the same amount of time before, is it because it will get harder the more I rank up?’, Rex thought.
Although 14 raise is admirable, this speed is expected just when he drinks the same elixir before.
The difference is that today he drinks a higher grade of Mana Charm Elixir but can only manage to raise his intelligence by 14, even though he can absorb more lightning mana than before.
This can only mean one thing, it will get harder to increase the more he raises his intelligence.
Rex looks to the side and saw Adhara and Rosie just finished their training, they turn their heads and signal Rex that they wanted to eat.
He signals that he will eat later before the both of them left.
Just as he wanted to meditate some more, he remembers that he got into rank three so he can finally learn other spells.
‘Let’s learn some spells, I will also need to learn for the Mana Control round’, Rex thought before he also left the room.
The quiet room is divided into many rooms, it is an all-function place.
The meeting room is just like before, the meditation room that he just used, and lastly is the training room where students can practice their spells.
It is really convenient and it shows the stand of Faraday University based on the facilities they provide.
Rex didn’t get disturbed today, it is weirdly calm without any interruptions.
‘I wish every day are just like today, it’s refreshing to be alone’, Rex thought, he then went to an empty training room.
Entering the room, it was different from any training room Rex has ever seen.
The room has natural light from the window above it, the ground is made of sand to accommodate the students, there are rows of different kinds of weapons on the side arranged neatly, a training dummy, and even a training robot.
It has everything Rex has ever hoped in a training room.
‘I’m quite tempted to move here now, it’s really an elite school’, Rex thought.
He then walks to the control pad on the side, he clicks on it before a hologram popped out showing many functions.
In the control pad, Rex can adjust many things.
The training robot difficulty, the training dummy durability, videos of different arts of weapon, but his eyes landed on a function.
It is the training dummy function that can measure an attack power, he wanted to give it a try.
He clicked on the dummy function and set it to rank five, he then ticks the measuring function before he pressed okay.
ZONG!
The training dummy on the right got sucked into the ground before a new dummy appears, it makes a mechanical sound before it stopped.
Right in front of Rex’s eyes, a white human-shaped training dummy appears.
Rex approach the training dummy, he notices the room is getting dark, ‘I need to be quick if I want to test out my raw power’
If the night came and his passive skills activated, then his stat would’ve raised by 50% then he can’t measure his raw power anymore.
He positioned himself before he punches the dummy with only his raw strength,
BAM!
The dummy’s gut area turns red because of Rex’s punch, “Power 956, Mid Rank Four”, a mechanical voice said stating Rex’s punch power.
Rex was confused about the power the voice said but he thought that it was only a scaling made by Faraday University.
After testing his raw strength, Rex activates his force and punches it again.
BAM!!
“Power 1045, Peak Rank Four”
Rex nodded his head, ‘My raw punch during daytime is a solid Peak Rank Four thanks to the Force Manipulation skill’
He then added his black lightning to the mix and got a new high score, “Power 1090, Peak Rank Four”
Although it didn’t rise by much, the speed his punch travel becomes faster than his usual.
Just after he punched the dummy, a notification from the system appears.
<night time!=”” increased=”” the=”” user’s=”” stats=”” by=”” 50%=””></night>
After his passive skill is activated, Rex then puts all of his power into one punch.
His fist emits a white hue from the Force and the Moonlight Energy, black lightning is sizzling on his arm like a black snake wrapping around his arm before he punches the dummy once again.
BOOM!
The punch creates an exploding shockwave that charred the dummy, Rex puts his all into it.
</power>
It was evident from the impact Rex make that it will be at least early rank five, but seeing it in person still greatly shocked him.
‘No wonder I can punch the living hell out of Ronald’, Rex thought.
After testing out his power limit,
Rex opened the system to see the spellbooks he had from before, he got quite a few of them lying around.
He got a couple of spellbooks that he got from the system, there’s Mystic Shock, Lightning Salvo, and Black Field Orko.
Rex takes the books out of the inventory, two blue books and one dark blue spellbook appear in front of him.
He knows that the dark blue one is the Black Field Orko, he got it from when he became a Black Lightning Elementalist before so he decided to save it for the last.
It is definitely the hardest to learn.
This time, Rex wanted to save his gold and decided to learn the spellbook by himself.
He realized the scarcity of gold and he decided to save it, he got a couple of thousands left in his pocket and he’s planning to keep it that way.
‘Just think of this as Mana Control training, yes that’s it’, Rex thought trying to assure himself.
Rex takes the Lightning Salvo spellbook and opens it, he read the introduction of the skill, ‘So this spell is related to the Mystic Shock spell, I should learn this one before Mystic Shock’
The spellbook stated that Lightning Salvo is a spell that summons lightning to strike a target, it is done first by channeling the lightning mana to the fingers.
Rex stands up and closes his eyes, he concentrates on the lightning mana on his body.
He can vaguely feel the lightning mana coursing through his body and also the surrounding, he then commands the lightning mana to his fingers.
The lightning mana stopped flowing as it went to Rex’s arm.
Rex frown, he can felt the heavy burden to guide the lightning mana to its new path.
Not long after, just as the lightning mana enter his arm he lost his concentration before the lightning mana went back to its original path.
When he learns a spell through the system, his body instantly remembers the path of doing that certain move.
Take Flash skill, for example, his body instantly remembers the path to use Flash skill.
Doing it the normal way, however, is rather hard because it needs a lot of concentration and training.
The system is connected to Rex’s body somehow, it can help his body to instantly remember the path of a certain skill.
“This is gonna be harder than I thought”
