Hearing the king-like figure's words, both Jake and Ramis looked around the room, hoping to find sothing useful.
"Well, let's say we find so parts—how are we gonna build it?" Ramis asked, watching as Jake checked the walls.

"I can build it. I have the knowledge," Jake replied, moving to the next corner.
Ramis looked at Jake, who casually continued his search. "Really?" he asked skeptically.
Jake stopped inspecting the walls and looked at Ramis. "Yes, I can."
His confidence stemd from the knowledge he usurped from the gno and from his Inferno Force authority, which now had new skills unlocked under it—two of which suited the cha task perfectly.
After a few more minutes of searching, Jake's Akashic Eyes spotted a faint outline of a hidden compartnt. "Over here," he called to Ramis.
Together, they pried open the panel, revealing a cache of chanical parts, tools, and runic components. Ramis's eyes widened at the sight. "Looks like we hit the jackpot."
"Indeed," Jake agreed, pulling out various pieces and laying them out systematically. "Let's divide the work. I'll handle the core and weapon systems using the gno's knowledge and my Inferno skills. You focus on the frawork and mobility."
Ramis nodded, already examining the components. "Got it. My Void Eyes should help us optimize the design."
They worked tirelessly, the pressure of the 24-hour deadline looming over them. Ramis's nimble hands and keen vision allowed him to quickly assemble a sturdy yet agile fra. He ticulously tested each joint and connection, ensuring the cha would have superior maneuverability.
anwhile, Jake concentrated on the power core and armants. Drawing from the gno's extensive understanding of machinery and his own tactical insights, he integrated a potent energy source and advanced weapon systems. He inscribed runes to enhance the cha's performance, infusing it with both technological and magical prowess.
As the hours ticked away, their creation began to take shape. The cha was a marvel of engineering, blending sleek design with formidable power. It stood tall, ready for the challenge ahead.
With only a few minutes to spare, they completed the final adjustnts and stepped back to admire their work. The cha, now fully operational, exuded an aura of strength and readiness.
The King, observing from his throne, nodded approvingly. "Ti is up. Let the battle comnce."
The statues of knights and mages once again transford into chas, positioning themselves for combat. Jake and Ramis climbed into their creation, feeling the hum of its energy coursing through them.
"Let's do this," Jake said, gripping the controls.
"Agreed," Ramis replied, activating the cha's systems.
the King raised his hand, and the room shifted. The floor transford into a giant chessboard, and their chas were suddenly moved to the positions of the King and Queen on one side of the board.
"Prepare for the final challenge," the King intoned. "A battle of intellect and combat."
Confused, Jake and Ramis looked around, realizing that they were now part of a chess ga. The King's voice echoed through the chamber again. "You must defeat my chess pieces. Rember, it is a test of both intellect and combat."
The knights and mages they had to fought were now arranged as chess pieces on the board, moving chanically into their starting positions.
Jake looked at Ramis, a mix of 'what the fuck' and frustration in his eyes. "He didn't say what kind of battle it was going to be."
Ramis nodded. "We should have prepared for more than just two chas."
The King, sensing their realization, shrugged. "The battle of intellect and combat is not limited to simple physical prowess. Your failure to foresee the nature of this challenge is not mine but yours "
Jake assessed the situation and quickly realized it was an unwinnable battle. With only two pieces, and the Queen being their only effective fighter, they stood no chance of victory.
'Nexus, use one of my opportunities to find an Authority that can cope with this situation,' he thought urgently.
[Well, it's a pity we thought we could save enough to get an Absolute Authority, but the situation calls for it,] Nexus replied.
[Here is the list of Authorities, choose one,] Nexus said, presenting Jake with a list of Authorities.

Jake scanned through the list, weighing his options carefully.
'Nexus, these are amazing. I need sothing that will give us an edge in both intellect and resources,' Jake thought.
[Choose wisely,] Nexus replied. [The higher the rank, the more powerful the Authority, but also the more taxing it will be on your core.]
After a mont of consideration, Jake asked, "What is my current limit?"
[It's Supre, and even if you were to choose it, you wouldn't be able to choose any for the next five major ranks. This ans up to Duke, no new Authority. So I suggest choosing the one which will help you in the long run,] Nexus replied.
Jake nodded thoughtfully and then said, "I choose the Authority of Transcendence."
A surge of power coursed through Jake as the Authority of Transcendence was bestowed upon him. His mind expanded, processing information at cosmic human speeds. Every problem, every challenge they faced, suddenly seed manageable, the solutions crystal clear.
He felt as if world is moving in slow motion, he looked at the king figure amd found several problems in his design just by a single gaze.
He turned to Ramis, a newfound confidence in his eyes. "Let's get to work."
Authority of Transcendence: Activated
Jake imdiately began analyzing the room with his enhanced cognitive abilities. Every detail, every potential resource, was scrutinized and cataloged in his mind.
Jake, now imbued with the Authority of Transcendence, felt an unwavering confidence. "Let's do this," he said, his mind racing through countless strategies.
Within few minutes he created several small, only for show chas, to get a full ga.
This is all due to Transcendence Authority as at Jake level he can access more of his skills which include a Cosmic mode , and in thia mode his whole speed increases by 100 tis for a limited period of ti,
Ramis looked at Jake speechlessly ans then at those new chas,Jake didn't mid him ans said to king to begin the match.
