Awakening:The Infinite Evolution of My Talent as a Low-Level Awakener Chapter 152: Destroying the Data
"Please, sir! Just tell what you need, but don't kill !"
Sterl didn't even have to speak. His goal was already half accomplished.
He realized that this portly official, having beco a professional, chose to hold an office in reality rather than explore Transcendence, clearly indicating that this guy wasn't soone with a fighting spirit.
Sterl didn't bother to say much. He calmly asked, "Where is the place nearby that stores player data for the ga?"
"What? That's controlled by the Ironheart family! I don't have the authority to go there!"
The official's face turned bitter. This was a disaster! The aura of this ruthless man's pet felt like an insurmountable mountain, utterly untouchable!
But the Ironheart family was even more terrifying. They had several third-class players in the ga. Revealing their information would be suicidal!
Not to ntion, player data was crucial. The reason big families like the Ironheart could thrive was because they controlled player data. Any player with talent would most likely be recruited into their genetic pool.
This was how these big families continually produced highly talented "newcors."
No matter how fierce this guy in front of him was, he surely couldn't be a third-class, right?
The official had so reservations, but Sterl casually flicked his fingers, releasing an extrely weakened version of Ignition Fla. The official scread like a pig being slaughtered.
Very quickly, the official gave in.
"Stop, stop! I'll take you there, I'll take you there." He surrendered without hesitation. Offending the Ironheart family might lead to a fate worse than death, but right now, defying this intruder would result in imdiate agony.
Sterl simply nodded, "Go find so craftsn who can maintain ga pods. Have them wait here."
With that, he followed the official to the data storage location.
Sterl didn't have to exert much effort. He and the official passed through several buildings, entering a basent within the underground world. They finally arrived at a machine room, filled with flashing red and green chanical lights.
The official's face remained bitter. "Sir, you can look for whatever data you need."
Sterl didn't waste any ti. "Look for data? No need for that!"
Without changing his expression, he raised his hand and released Ignition Fla. The terrifyingly high heat instantly lted countless data and the hardware storing it into molten tal!
Then, the flas ignited sothing, causing a severe explosion in the room!
Boom!
Boom!!
But those were just ordinary facility explosions, so neither the official nor Sterl was hard.
As the violent explosions echoed, the official's eyes widened in despair. "No! Sir! How am I supposed to survive this?"
He was on the verge of breaking down.
But Sterl wasn't done yet. He threw a few more Ignition Flas, ensuring the entire machine room was reduced to ashes before stopping.
Then, with keen interest, he asked the official, "Are you sure there's no other place nearby storing data?"
Sterl asked just to be thorough.
Because his original identity as "Sterl" was perceived by everyone as just an ordinary player, his data shouldn't have been stored in any special or secure manner.
The official, now in a daze, murmured, "It's all gone! Everything is gone!"
"All the data in this base has been wiped out, and I'm dood!"
He initially thought that if it was just a matter of finding so data, the Ironheart family might not notice imdiately. Even if they did, it would take so ti, giving him a chance to escape to another human settlent.
But now, with the machine room completely destroyed, the Ironheart family would soon send people to investigate, and he was certain to be executed!
Seeing Sterl about to leave, the official had a sudden burst of inspiration and shouted.
"Sir, take with you! I'm willing to serve you. I won't survive if I stay here!"
Sterl hesitated for a second but then readily agreed to his request.
"No problem, you can follow from now on."
Sterl had a plan in mind that required so manpower.
For the next while, Sterl followed the official back to his office, where a group of bewildered craftsn stood.
Sterl smiled. These people had grotesque pustules all over their bodies, were hunched over, and looked extrely aged, clearly affected by nuclear radiation.
They looked at Sterl and then at the official, confused about what was happening.
"Sir, why have you summoned us?"
"What do you need us to do?"
The craftsn spoke timidly, clearly not holding a high status within the settlent.
Sterl did not respond verbally. Instead, he waved his hand slightly, releasing a unique skill—Purification Ripple.
This skill, an additional ability from the [Newborn Sprout of Creation], claid to cleanse all calamities and anomalies.
Sterl wasn't sure if the radiation on these people counted as an anomaly, but it was worth a try.
Outwardly, Sterl maintained an air of profound mystery, as if he was certain his skill would have so effect.
At first, the craftsn were terrified, shouting, "Sir! Spare us!"
"Please, don't kill us."
They kowtowed frantically, but soon they noticed that a pure, green ripple of light enveloped them.
They imdiately felt an overwhelming sense of relief, as if they had been freed from years of bondage.
So began to touch their faces.
"My face!" They paused, stunned. Using the large floor mirror in the office, they saw their current appearance—
"The pustules on my body are gone. What's happening?"
"Wait a minute! My body..."
As they exclaid in joy, so couldn't help but remove their shirts, discovering that all the scars caused by radiation had vanished!
Their skin was smooth and new, like that of a healthy person, their bodies free of years of toxins!
Even the official felt a wave of relief, coughing up several mouthfuls of black blood.
Sterl, also within the range of the ripple, felt a slight relief in his body and exhaled a breath of impure air.
"It really works!"
"But this radiation is so strong? Even at my level, I couldn't avoid its effects."
"It seems that from now on, every ti I enter the real world, I'll need to use this Purification Ripple to cleanse myself." Sterl mused casually.
Thanks to his Star Insight, he could see that everyone's [Forbidden Poison] had been removed. Although he found the na of this abnormal status a bit odd, he was pleased that the previously useless Purification Ripple now had a practical application.
Moreover, Sterl sensed that not only were the people present affected, but the massive office and at least dozens of square ters around it had been cleansed, making the environnt exceptionally clear and pure.
He had a hunch that this environnt was now suitable for ordinary human life.
Just then, with a thud, the official knelt down and pulled out a contract.
"Sir, I found your secret and I know the rules. This is a loyalty contract. Once I sign it, my life will be in your hands. Spare ."
He was very conscious! While the craftsn seed useful to this mysterious figure, he knew that if he didn't show understanding, he might actually be killed.
The official's mind was working very quickly. This mysterious figure was able to purify the nuclear radiation that had always existed in the real world, but not as a representative of the authorities. What does that imply?
It ant that a hidden faction had already mastered the ability to purify the real world and had been keeping it a secret until now. What could be their goal other than to dominate all of humanity?
Otherwise, why not collaborate with the authorities to quickly spread such a crucial purification ability?
Sterl hadn't expected the official to be so conscious. He nodded and took the contract. It was already written, stating that the official voluntarily pledged unconditional allegiance, declaring the signee as his master, clearly prepared in advance.
Sterl "..."
This was the first ti he had encountered soone so peculiar. To save his life, the official had even considered the possibility of having to sell himself into servitude. Should he comnd the official for being thorough or criticize him for having no sha?
As he read the contract, Sterl finally learned the official's na—Beck.
After signing the contract, Beck's expression beca more animated. He respectfully stood behind Sterl, looking elated to have found a powerful backer.
Sterl then spoke.
"As you've seen, I possess the power to purify radiation."
"Now, I need you to establish a new underground base."
"I will use my purification power to cleanse the entire base. You will be able to live there without any impact on your lifespan."
As soon as he finished speaking, the craftsn erupted in excitent. Their eyes were filled with joy. Given their low status in the settlent, relocating wasn't a big deal, especially to a place where they could live longer without radiation.
Without hesitation, they all agreed enthusiastically.
"No problem! No problem!"
"Sir, thank you for your kindness. We will always rember your benevolence towards us."
The craftsn were overjoyed.
Sterl then asked, "I have a question. Can you guys manufacture and maintain ga pods?"
The craftsn's expressions imdiately turned awkward.
"Sir, the technology behind ga pods is sothing we humans have never managed to decipher."
