2024-10-29 19:42:56When the sun started peeping through the veil of the night, Morales finally stopped his cultivation. After a whole night of cultivation, he discovered a few more surprises.
Though he did not level up, he detected a visible increase in proficiency of his main and sub-class skills like basic body control and basic energy control.
As he slowly pulled himself out of the fuzzy feeling brought by cultivating, he heard a knock on the door. He didn’t even have to think, he knew that his wayward roommates were back.
“You guys finally decided to come back”. He said flatly after opening the door.
“Hey, how did it feel staying alone without us? Did you miss us? Oh, I almost forgot, thank you for the dojo points. The night was a blast, we really enjoyed ourselves”.
Chloe quickly pushed Morales aside and entered after he opened the door, with her mouth already shooting off words at the pace of a machine gun.
“Good morning”. Rose and Dave finally greeted from the back before they also entered.
Morales noticed that they both had dark eyelids clearly from exhaustion, only Chloe was as energetic as always. See! Before going out to enjoy yourself, check out the companion you’re going out with.
“Where exactly did you guys go?” Morales was curious.
“Outside the dojo of course. We easily bribed the guards with 2 dojo points, and we had a whole night for ourselves to enjoy outside”. Despite feeling sleepy, Dave’s tone was proud.
“You guys really have guts”. He gave them a thumbs up.
“Wait…, why do I feel like you suddenly grew stronger overnight”. Chloe was about to enter the bathroom, but she stopped and turned to look at him suspiciously.
“I’m a genius”. Morales smiled.
Snorting, Chloe ignored him. “Have you had your bath? If you’ve had, please wait for me, let’s go to the virtual simulation hall together”. She quickly added before entering the bathroom.
As soon as she entered, Dave and Rose waved embarrassedly at Morales before finding their beds to plop down and sleep. They were exhausted, and now they needed recharging.
Morales only chuckled. “What a bag of lazy bones”.
“I heard you…” Dave said in a sleepy tone, but he couldn’t say more as he fell asleep the next moment.
After Chloe came out, Morales finally went in to have his bath. It was during this that his system gave him another notification, and its content was shocking.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Parameters for first Version launch have been met.
Countdown to Version 1.0 launch: 365 days.
-------------------------------------------------------------
Bam!
Seeing this, Morales was beyond shocked. He almost destroyed the bathroom after losing control of himself for a moment. What the hell did he just see?
“Hey! What’s happening in there?” He heard Chloe’s puzzled voice.
“…”
“Nothing”.
“Version 1.0? What the hell does this mean? Does this mean that players will be coming? That doesn’t make sense?” He felt horrified, thinking that he was maybe going mad.
The system gave him a mission to find other earthlings, and now other earthlings in the form of players would be arriving. How does that make sense?
“System, can you tell me what’s going on?”
“…”
He cursed silently. This was one of the main things he hated the most about the system, it never replied to him, only giving him notifications like he was a bot.
Putting his hate for the system’s antics aside, he started a fierce brainstorm to make sense of the notification that just showed itself to him. This again could change most of his plans.
“Is it earthlings like me that would come as players? Can other earthlings even access this world? What if…, Space World was not just a game like advertised, but a world that was created?”
He shuddered on this thought.
“Have humans advance so much that they can now create a world? What if the NPC experiment was all a conspiracy to get us in here? What if we were just test subjects to the game developers?”
He gritted his teeth in frustration and slight anger as all these thoughts went through his mind.
He already adapted to this world did not mean he did not still find it strange. Though he was a soldier in his previous life, it was not easy to adapt to a world where strength was the most respected.
And he was now even hiding for his life just because of a ridiculous fight for the throne. He gnashed his teeth in indignance.
After taking a few minutes to calm himself down, he started thinking from another angle. “What if all my assumptions are wrong? Perhaps, an apocalypse happened, the earth is already destroyed and I and 4 others were the only survivors”.
“Hey! What are you still doing in there? Are you giving birth? I’ll leave you soon”. Chloe’s now annoyed voice sounded again, breaking him from his thoughts.
“I’ll be done in a moment”. He yelled back.
He quickly started washing his body clean with the water.
For now, he would forget about the implication of this notification. A year from now was not too long, he would know exactly what was happening when that time comes.
After having his bath, it did not take long before he was set. He and Chloe soon left their sleeping roommates behind.
For today, Morales was not only visiting the virtual simulation hall, he had intentions to go through all the training and learning quarters of the dojo.
His strength attribute was already 80, and only 20 more was needed for him to complete his class advancement mission. Through his free attribute points, that requirement could be considered done.
Before he advanced, he wanted to form a training plan ahead for his future, which was why he wanted to visit all the training quarters.
With his abundant amount of dojo points, he could afford to be extravagant.
Unlike Chloe expected, the virtual simulation hall was not his first stop. He just escorted her there as a friend, after that, he immediately left for the dojo library alone.
Entering the library, this time, he was able to admire the knowledge that was stored here in its full majesty.
The library room was designed like a hall, with lots of shelves holding books lining across all 4 corners of the room.
Chairs were arranged around a center table in the middle of the room, this was where the students practiced the Pugilist class knowledge.
All 5 main classes had knowledge of different qualities. The ones of the least quality were basic and advanced knowledge.
There were other ones of higher qualities, but the current Beiger planet had only up to advanced knowledge. Most dojos, including the Border town dojo, had no advanced knowledge.
To get such, Morales needed to go to dojos built in cities.
Of the 45-basic knowledge of the Pugilist class, Morales already learned 4 of which 3 were of the body branch, while 1 was of the cell branch.
The Border town dojo library only had 10 basic knowledge, which was better than nothing. He already learned 2 of them secretly the last time that he visited here, he was going to learn the other 8 today.
He quickly paid dojo points to get 2 of the 8-class knowledge, he would learn the others through his cheat-like system.

-------------------------------------------------
Morales closed his eyes to concentrate his mind as a huge amount of information was dumped into his head, he felt light-headed but at the same time feeling like a scholar all of a sudden.
“With so much knowledge about my body and cells, I think it's no exaggeration to say that I’m qualified to be a doctor back on earth”. He muttered to himself gleefully.
In Space World, one of the most common knowledge known by all players was that Mechanics fought with weapons, Espers had supernatural abilities after stimulating their DNA genes.
Mages fought by controlling arcane power from the universe, Psychics fought through their strong mental power, while Pugilists fought with skills derived from their bodies.
To some players, Pugilists are directly proportional to skills.
It was not weird for a high-grade Pugilist to have thousands of active skills, which was the only way they could match up to the tricky ways of the other 4 main class holders.
Pugilists could learn new skills by leveling up, learning from other masters, or cultivating to create their own special skills.
In the Border town dojo library, apart from the class knowledge and other mundane subject books, a significant part of the library was filled with books housing different Pugilist active skills.
Morales also aimed to increase his strength by buying some of the skills, but dojo points were required. Even as rich as he currently was, some skills were too expensive for him.
He didn’t buy any active skill for now; he would do that later.
After learning the 8 class knowledge, he left the library. For the rest part of the day, he spent his time in the heavy gravity buildings and the virtual simulation hall.
In these locations, he finally spent a significant part of his accumulated experience to improve all his abilities that had room for improvement with experience.
At the end of the day, he felt loaded and filled to the brim.
He was ready to advance!

“Hey, remember our duel tomorrow. I hope you don’t cower in fear when the time comes”. Chloe said with a yawn as she stretched, exposing her perky cleavages before climbing her bed to retire for the night. Morales was careful not to show any obvious reactions to the sight. “Don’t worry, I won’t forfeit the duel”. “When the time comes…, it’ll be hard to know who’ll decide to forfeit”. He grinned. “Goodnight”. Chloe waved at the others before closing her eyes to sleep. Dave and Rose practically spent the whole day couped inside the room. Due to the loose manner in which the

Morales felt a cool feeling sweep through his body, penetrate his skin, and invade his heart. Despite this rude intrusion, he did not resist it, he welcomed it with open hands. This is power! In just a single night, he already transformed from the cub that he was to a teenage dragon ready to soar through the skies. What better feeling was there than this? “Finally! After all my effort, they all finally paid off. I’m now a grade E superhuman; all hail the mighty earthlings!” Feeling excited was an understatement for his current feeling, he felt giddy with joy and over the moon satisfaction. After taking a few moments to revel in the joy brought by his successful breakthrough, he finally calmed himself down to analyze his situation properly. Despite staying dormant in one place, he could feel the power that was stationary in his body like a slumbering monster waiting to be summoned by its master. By this time, all the aftermath o

Overall, the atmosphere among them was cheerful.He was a little surprised that till now, none of them detected that he had a breakthrough.After thinking more about it, he reasoned that it was normal. If he didn’t reveal his strength openly to them, how would they know how strong he was? It was not like he was an advertisement board.Having their duel in the big dueling arena that was in front of the main dojo building would have been the best setting, but they didn’t want to make the duel a public spectacle.It was a roommates’ exclusive duel.The area around the dueling arena was boisterous as usual, and 2 students were already on the arena getting set to battle.As

Chloe coughed out blood, her face now extremely pale as she looked at her now mysterious roommate with shock evident in her eyes. She already transformed back to her normal shape, her fairy wings were gone and her blue raging energy already dissipated. Despite Morales almost stuffing his face in hers in worry, she was silent, looking back at him in a daze. “Ahem…, cough, I think I’ll go first. I have a training scheduled for now”. Dave reacted first. After suppressing his shock at what just happened, he coughed, took a glance at his wristwatch, excused himself, and disappeared before anyone could offer an objection. His heart was already bleeding tears. He was actually the first student who was assigned to their room, now the newcomers who came after him were dwarfing him in strength. He really had to stop being so casual with training, he was no damn kid again. “Cough, I think I’ll go too”. Pop! Rose disappeared in a jiffy wit

Battling dozens of challengers consecutively was not an easy feat.Despite all the troubles that followed the challenge, he was completely satisfied with the outcome.To him, the gains of what he just did far exceeded the losses.Having the chance to battle so many same ranked opponents, he could now confidently beat his chest that he was familiar with his newly gained grade E strength.Not only that, though it was faint he knew that he now had a higher mastery over the use and control of his abilities, most especially the attribute regulator.The information that he learned alone about the use of the attribute regulator cannot be completely emphasized in just a day.

The next morning, after greeting his roommates who once again all woke up early due to the pressure that was induced by his rapid increase in strength, Morales laughed and left. Today, he was spending his time in the library. As soon as he went outside, he felt it immediately, there was a change. He could feel that the way his fellow students looked at him suddenly experienced a huge change overnight. “Good morning Senior!” A student originally walking on the path that he walked on greeted him nervously before quickly scurrying away. He was puzzled. “Am I so scary now? I’m not the Undertaker, who would they be scared of me? Is it because of the duel?” He was a little speechless, not knowing what to make out of this. Yesterday, these same guys were the ones clamoring loudly that he should be thought a lesson. Just after a single duel, they already turned to scared adorable bunnies. “What a scam!” Shaking his head, he did

After learning all 3 skills, Morales closed his eyes as the familiar feeling of a large amount of information being deposited into his brain took over him.About a minute later, the information finally settled into his brain.He was still awed by the seemingly magical ability of the system. Though he didn’t even have any of these abilities in his previous life, he felt that he practiced these abilities for thousands of years.He was still not accustomed to this, it just felt too unreal.“If the system can dump so much knowledge inside my head without me being able to resist, does that not mean it can equally brainwash me without me being able to resist?”He shuddered on this thought.There was nothing that he could do though, so he put it at the back of his mind. If the system wasted energy to bring him to this world just to kill or brainwash him, then it was free to do it.He didn’t beg to come here; he was br

It was already a month since he trashed all the first-year students of the Border town Pugilist dojo in a duel. During this time, a lot of things happened and he already trained with his energy training technique a lot. It did not take him much effort to get the hang of the technique, so apart from his daily practice and dungeon delving, he spent his remaining time training with the technique. As a reward for his diligence, during this time training daily, he already amassed 125 energy attributes and 232 stamina. The effectiveness of the Energy Training Technique was divided into 3 stages: -&

As one of the 3 Grade C- experts of this Suicide Squad, he had 1/3rd overall authority over any decision-making of the squad. As soon as they went deep inside the pyramid enough, and the number of zombies and other undead creatures swarming towards them started becoming too much, Morales gave a suggestion. “Let’s separate!” Morales could boast of being the warrior with the most knowledge about this Pyramid.

This was a sign of a good omen towards the overall mission. None of the warriors that were recruited into the vanguard team cheered though, this was because they knew that this was just the calm before the storm. This act that they just started was an act of war! Inside the necromancy domain was like a dark endless void filled with chaotic space that kept on ravaging through anything that they could devour. It was now night, but the effects of the night here were amplified several folds. The extreme darkness, gloominess, and absolute silence gave this region the spookiest attribute that it could afford. This strange vacant void seemed spooky, but not to the warriors that came for this mission who were all battle-hardened veterans. None of them were flustered, they kn

The hunting alliance already put everything in order before convening this gathering. From the most important warrior to the least important, even the mysterious Elder Lorrain of the Clifford family were all present. Like before, Pirate Admiral Frenzy was the one who stood up to speak. He was seated alongside his fellow counterparts at the very front of the hall. Morales eyed these seats. With his current status as a Grade C- expert, if he revealed his real strength, he could easily become one of the higher-ups of this alliance. Despite the fame and prestige that may follow, Morales was okay with being prudent. He already had his own plans in place for this mission. To others, it was just about killing the necromancers and getting rid of a disast

Morales’s rapid increase in power made him feel surreal.For some reason, he felt that he was finally looking down on this planet from a vantage point. Getting to this strength level so rapidly would have affected new timers, but he was an old-timer.In his previous world, as an avid Space World gamer, he was among the first patch of players to level up to the Grade A Calamity realm.With such an achievement, leveling to the Grade C- realm seemed inconsequential though he would be beaten to death if any of the other Grade C- experts currently in Beiger planet heard him say that.In his luxurious room that was built inside his new mansion in Morales Island, Morales sat as a lot of things went through his mind.Tomorrow was the D-Day for the hunt mission to get the head of the notorious Gorge Dame to commence.

After the secret gathering that was convened in a secret virtual domain, Morales took his time communicating with the Pirate Admiral.Pirate Admiral Frenzy no longer hid anything from him.As he said, they discovered the fatal plan of the necromancers 2 years ago. Since then, they went into work on gathering manpower and trying to infiltrate the Necromancer’s Den to gather information.When the gathering started, it comprised only Pirate Admiral Frenzy and Pirate Admiral Rage. These 2 were the progenitors of the gathering, and they were responsible for the rapid growth of the gathering in the past 2 years.Compared to when it started, the gathering was now countless times more powerful. They looked invisible, but not so invisible against the Necromancer’s Den.The Necromancer’s Den already changed a lot, Gorge Dame was no longer the sole leader.

CHAPTER 226: THE SECRET GATHERING.
“Who is this?” Morales was confused at first on seeing his ringing communication device, but as soon as he picked up the call, his confusion cleared and was quickly replaced by surprise and speculations. “Morales, right?” On hearing the dignified voice that reverberated from the other side of the virtual projection screen, Morales snapped out of his daze. “Esteemed Pirate Admiral!” Morales quickly expressed his respect by standing up. Being contacted so suddenly by the well-known Frenzy Psychic, Morales experienced a rapid rush of emotions. It did not take him long before he connected this call to the achievements of his fleet in the just-concluded campaign. Though he really wanted to know the reason why this Pirate Admiral called, he did not dare keep him waiting. He put on the most polite smile that he could before asking the universal question. “To what honor am I receiving this unexpected call?” On hearing t
