BXBX NOVEL Chapter 830 - Cursed Water
Alex opened his eyes, utterly confused. He didn\'t know why Sherry appeared here, but her action made him realize something was wrong with her.
Not knowing what to do, Alex tried to come to Sherry and ask her why she became like this, but the latter only passed out right before him, turning into her small fox form.
It was at this instant that Alex realized she was going to undergo her tribulation. At the same time, the pressure started coming to his heart, knowing that there was a time bomb inside his body.
Firstly, Sherry might transform to Divine Beast before he came out of this world, causing many problems to the point it triggered Lightning Tribulation itself in this place. Hence, he needed to go to the Divine World first before Sherry transformed.
And to do that, he needed to ask how long he had left.
According to Anya, the transformation process took a very long time, depending on the strength of the beast itself. However, it wasn\'t like how the human would need a longer time to condense their Divine Body if they had too much power in their repertoire. Instead, Sherry would have a faster time compared to normal beasts.
The record said that the longest a Divine Beast ever took to evolve was one hundred years, whereas the fastest being five years. Yet, Sherry had a Pure Element that had been evolved to the highest degree. It would be impossible for Sherry took a whole five years just to evolve. She might even transform into Divine Beast within a month, and the people would only get shocked and be done with it.
Because of this, Alex decided to focus on his cultivation even further. Not long after, Stina also came to him in the same state as Sherry, followed by Kyle two months later.
Alex also had finished his cultivation during this time and started proceeding to the consolidation process. As expected, the speed was very low. Firia took around eight months just to consolidate her strength, so he must need around nine to a year to finish this.
Even so, the fire still lit brightly in his heart as he proceeded. As he had expected, Alex took around two months to finally finish his consolidation.
At that time, he decided to leave his room, meeting his spirits that seemed to have no job during this period. All of them were already so close to having max EXP, so Alex didn\'t really have any jobs for them.
That was why he immediately thought of another thing.
\'System, level up all of them right now. With this little time span, there shouldn\'t be much problem. Besides, they can stay inside the cards if something happens." Alex shrugged.
[Processing…]
[Anna (Dark)
Level: 80/80 (10-Star Martial Saint Stage)
Exp: 700000/700000 (Require Host to become a God Rank Expert to proceed to the next level)]
"…" Alex widened his eyes and checked the others\' statuses, only to find them having the same requirement.
On the other hand, the spirits noticed the sudden change of their experiences along with Alex\'s presence.
"Master!"
"Alex."
"I have finished consolidating. I am going to challenge the Divine Tribulation right now, but I want to see Rose and Letizia first."
"Both of them are inside the base right now because you are going to finish your cultivation this month and next month. They want to see you off before chasing after you," Anna replied.
"Can you call them for me?"
"Sure." Anna nodded and left.
In the meantime, the system gave him another notification.
[Mission: Reach Rank 10 God
Reward: Divine Gacha System & Gacha God Title
Description: It\'s time for you to be the provider of this amazing system. You are going to be promoted to be the master of this Gacha System from a host. You can grant this wonderful ability to people who are worthy, and let the love of Gacha spread all over the world.]
"…" Alex twitched his eyebrows, wondering if what he saw was the truth or not. He pinched the bridge of his nose and took another look at the notification. "I won\'t say anything about the description first… But I certainly want an explanation about this Divine Gacha System and Gacha God Title."
[Gacha God Title is the title birth of your desire to be called Gacha God. This title allows you to become the Master of this system yourself and appoint a manager to handle the idle tasks. At the same time, the people you grant this ability can access the Gacha. It\'s also applicable to the world itself.]
"Can you give me an example? And the way you explain… Ugh, don\'t tell me… The previous Dungeon God was the owner of this system?"
[I didn\'t know back then, but as soon as I received the manual about this Divine Gacha System, I realize it is the case. Now that I have the information about this, I will explain what kind of things that the Dungeon God did in the past. Will that be alright?]
"Please." Alex thought for a moment and nodded.
[Firstly, the Dungeon God seemed to have the ability to power up someone by using this ability. Of course, he granted it to someone worthy in his eyes. It didn\'t need to be the same Gacha style like the one you or Rose have right now. It can be something else, such as gambling. Maybe, card?]
"Hmm?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows. "Cards? Oh, wait. I seem to understand the concept. For example, I grant them the ability, such as poker? They can draw cards to receive a certain benefit…"
[That\'s basically it. However, the details of such an ability will need to be discussed further.]
"Yes. It\'s an interesting concept to be honest." Alex nodded.
[Yes. Anyway, the Dungeon God used this system to create many powerful individuals. Maybe you can do it too, but we will see it later.]
"Well, I have done it! Although it\'s half-baked power, Rose still uses Gacha power."
[True enough.]
"Still, I can\'t see how it can benefit me… I mean, if I am going to create many powerful individuals, I need a huge number of Spirit Crystals, right? Along with weapons and pills to supply them."
[The second usage will be the solution. Knowing that you can grant someone such a thing, it can also mean that you can use it to empower a whole world… The previous Dungeon God used his ability to create a world with dungeons and grant this Gacha-like ability to them.]
[Firstly, he created a power system to get monsters and other things from another world or that world itself, like the lower world… Then, using that kind of service, the people will come flocking these dungeons, hunting those monsters down. With that, you can absorb a portion of the Spiritual Energy produced by those dying monsters to maintain the dungeon itself while using the other portion to create Spirit Crystals.]
[If you are harvesting from multiple worlds… You became the previous Dungeon God, who was known for his wealth. That was a rough concept, so it would depend on you whether you would make one or not. Besides, isn\'t it nice to only sit around and do nothing but still getting millions of millions of Spirit Crystals?]
"That is truly tempting, but we can discuss this one later too. If possible, saying Harvesting is a bit weird for me… Basically, the concept is I will help them in increasing their strength while they are going to give me back a portion of energy to create money, right?"
[Yes.]
"An interesting concept…" Alex nodded.
[And there is another thing you will get with this title.]
"And that is…"
[The strings that are attached to everyone are hard to see. Unless you are truly looking at them, it\'s hard to find them. Hence, the system grants you the ability to see an aura instead. The coloring is similar. White means Neutral. Black is an Enemy. Red is for a person harboring hate and the like toward you. Green means a Friend, while Blue means you have tied some kind of karma with them… Of course, it doesn\'t mean marriage. There are other relationships as well.]
Alex thought for a moment and nodded. "This will be easier to see."
[Yes. The aura itself is like a layer of cloth covering a whole body. If you use your Spirit Eyes, you won\'t see this aura so as to prevent you from getting a sneak attack by them.]
"Nice. Beautiful stuff." Alex approved of this ability. The granting ability was surely fun to play with, so he would certainly give one to someone or to a world in the future. And that was why he became more curious about the other thing. "How about the Divine Gacha System?"
[Because you are the master now that can grant your ability to others, this Gacha System is the way. And as you can expect, you will be granted the whole treasury that built up this very system.]
"Wait a minute! Before you are going anywhere, I need to ask one question!" Alex twitched his eyebrows as if he became annoyed. "How much water do I have?"
[There was once a world that had been abandoned due to the extreme temperature. The previous Spirit God decided to take all the water on that planet… It has the same characteristics as the Earth, but many times bigger.]
"No way! Please tell me it was a joke!" Alex gritted his teeth. "I have been getting so many of them… And yet, it turns out that I haven\'t gotten even a drop of the ocean?"
[Don\'t worry, Host. You have gotten enough to make a lake if you combine all the water bottles, gallons, and tanks.]
"…" Alex was on the verge of cursing, but he held back because a thought came to his mind. "Wait a minute… What if there is a world on the verge of an apocalypse or on the verge of extinction? If I create a power system in this world and use that useless water as a reward, won\'t I become rich?"
[There are many flaws in your concept, but that is feasible, especially with the fact they are going to need it and treat it as treasure.]
Facepalmed. Alex had no more words to say. He had a mixed feeling with the water right now, but the system added another thing.
[You can use the Spirit World to get more water. And use it for a reward in that kind of chaotic world, they must be so valuable in that world, so it\'s a free cost high reward. What do you think? I am sure you are going to love water bottles now.]
"…" Alex fell silent.
