Chapter 44
"Then, why didn't Revolution take any actions?" Mike frowned after hearing the evilness of Blood Hand Organization and the threat they possess. At this moment, he couldn't understand the Revolution even more. Because they should have taken the action especially when everything is happening inside the world they created.
"Mike, how much do you know about the Ascending to Godhood?" Xylan didn't reply instantly instead asked.
"Hmm! If I really don't have much knowledge about it. I haven't even read the basic guidebook given by the guild." Mike shook his head and spoke.
"Then, you might not know but the Ascending to Godhood isn't controlled by Revolution. In fact, the Blood Hand Organization has better control than the Revolution. But because Revolution is Earth's representative, that's why people think Revolution has better control over Ascending to Godhood."
"There are many things that even we don't know about the Ascending to Godhood. I am from the royal family which is why I learned a little bit more about it. But the Ascending to Godhood history is very deep. After all, Earth isn't the only planet where human lives."
Hiss!
"You mean, the Ascending to Godhood wasn't created by the Revolution rather created by the humans that live in other galaxies?" A horrifying expression appeared on his face as he thought of it. Humans outside the earth weren't something unimaginable but the people won't talk about it because they haven't seen anyone.
They have seen many other races but not the human race. This made them believe that humans aren't present across the cosmos except for them. But now, hearing the truth from Xylan made Mike realize his previous thoughts were actually true.
When he faced that man with a long nose, he noticed this man was very different. Even though the people of earth are arrogant, they never treat people like ants. This might be the reason for their common sense or fear. But when he heard those arrogant words, the first thought that came to his mind was cultivation world.
That man with a long nose must be from the cultivation world and along with the Blood Demon Lord. But Blood Demon Lord seems to be from the real world. So, what was going on? He was utterly confused.
"Mike, how about we run as we talk more? I will explain to you everything I know from the basic guidebook and from my family." Xylan didn't like wasting his time, standing at the same place, explaining everything to Mike.
Even if he had to explain, he must make the time fruitful. Mike nods his head and three of them started running. While running, Xylan started his explanation.
"But before I explain everything, you must understand whatever I am going to say isn't announced in public. And, that might be the reason why you don't know. In fact, not just the public, even top organizations don't possess this intelligence.
"Ascending to Godhood was developed by the earliest gods of our universe. These gods are aligned with all three thousand races across the universe. So, it's not just humans who created this virtual world, rather its entire universe."
"That's why the people who die here are regenerated as the codes and can't access the real world. During the ancient age, everyone across the universe didn't have any chance to cultivate. But when the real danger came. I don't know what that danger is or from where it came but that was the moment when the Primordial Chaos Energy scattered throughout the universe."
"Primordial Chaos Energy is the most ancient energy and so, it has the power to evolve everything. Three thousand races across the universe got mutated. Bloodline Abilities, Innate Abilities, and other different kinds of abilities popped out."
"During this eruption, these people were mutated with the purest form of Primordial Chaos Energy giving them the best evolution. And so, some of them turned into extraordinary geniuses becoming gods. But soon, the greatest war occurred which wasn't in favor us."
"It was like the war between humanity and the Alkiwon race. Fifty thousand against nine billion and we lost over seventy percent of our population. That was the same situation with those power. In the guidebook, it wasn't mentioned but I found it from our family ancestor."
"There were two ways for getting stronger. Killing and absorbing. Killing others to gain EXP inside the Ascending to Godhood or absorbing the energy from the universe. Former seems dangerous while later seems easy."
"But we can't afford, lots of people can't afford. So, we kill, we kill to get stronger. But the person who dies changes into the codes and remains in this world. If it is truly weak, then there would be no need for such a program. But if he gets stronger, he can live more."
"Wait a minute, can NPC level up like us?" Mike was frightened by so much information so he didn't ask anything. But when he heard NPC getting stronger, he didn't hesitate to ask. Because he thought NPC's can't level up.
"Of course, they can't. But once in a while or rather once in a decade, there will be a war. In that war, the NPC who performs better can get stronger. And the NPC who perform best can transform back and leave this world."
"My ancestor didn't mention our enemy but he said after two years, we might need to face them. There are two ways to participate in a war. Either join the guild and participate in war or create a guild and participate in war."
"No matter which path you choose, the guild is a must. That's why people want to complete quests instead of randomly killing people. Of course, based on your record, you will gain many rewards by participating in such wars. This is all I know about Ascending to Godhood."
"And, for your information, try to be low-key. There are many organizations like Blood Hand with different purposes. It said that unlike us, these people draw their power from our enemies. In short, Blood Hand Organization uses virgin blood to draw energy from a different dimension and use it."
"And, there is another information for you. I don't know whether you have read comics and novels or not, but those myths written in those comics are true. In fact, those comics and novels are the reason why humanity was able to develop their Innate Ability so fast."
Xylan spoke in a deep voice for some time. Finally, he explained everything he knows and shut up, giving Mike time to process. It was really surprising and frightening information for him.
Mike was a reincarnated person, given a new life, a new talent, and a new body. He has the soul of a human that has never killed a single person in his life until today. And, the only reason why he killed them, or to be exact the courage he got to kill them was because of Ascending to Godhood.
Even if you die, you aren't exactly dying. You are turning into a set of codes, a program. So, he thinks of this more as a VR action-rpg game. Yeah, it was a VR game because even if you die, you can be reincarnated once. You have an inventory and level up-system.
You can finish quests and earn resources. But now, it was more like a complete cultivation game. Form a guild, prepare for the war, protect the universe, and kill the enemies. It sounded like a script of a game to him.
'Things are getting quite scary. I can't wrap my head around the new things that I learned today. This is my second time entering the game and I already learned so much. And, for my luck's sake, I made an enemy.'
'That seems good for me though. All I wanted is an enemy and now I got one plus one for free. Though, one of them seems to be passive. I don't need to focus too much on the passive enemy. Blood Demon King seems to pretty powerful, I hope he can excite me a lot.'
'But, my first task should be improving my cultivation. There are thirteen ranks in Soldier Realm. Currently, I am third rank soldier but my Unique Ability gives me the strength of sixth rank Soldier. I wonder, if I reach thirteenth rank Solider Realm, I can face off against thirteenth rank General Realm.'
'Nah, I don't think that's quite possible. From my previous knowledge of cultivation, improvement of realm improves one's strength by ten or even a hundred times. That's completely different compared to previous ranks.'
'So, I shouldn't get ahead of myself and try relying less on my unique ability......… Hell No! That's my unique ability, that's my cheat, and that was made for me. Why wouldn't I use something that was made for me? I should use it but I need to find different ways to improve my strength.'
'Currently, I can have two S-Rank Innate Abilities. Brute Force and Fire Element, both can be improved. As long as I can find the right resources, I can completely evolve them. Aside from that, I must do everything I can to earn quests rewards.'
'B-Rank Lightning Innate Ability, Gene Modification Fluid, S-Rank Innate Ability, and Ninth Rank Bloodline. Each of them can be considered best among others. I can use Evolution stone to evolve everything that I need. So, quests are a must.'
As he thought more, deep determination flashed in his eyes. At the same time, a strange thought came to his mind, making a brighter smile on his face.
'A thousand Creatures, Fifty Thousand Bronze Coins, fuck one more lady and make Lauren Heavenly Maiden, these shall be my goals within Soldier Realm.'
