Chapter 516 - [Bonus ] System Upgrade (Part-3)
Chapter 516: System Upgrade (Part-3)
Instead of responding, Charles pondered for a mont and asked a different question.
"Do you have emotions?"
[...]
After a short silence, a response ca from the System.
[Insufficient information!]
[Trying to connect to 'Wisdom Link' to check for the possible answer!]
[Connection Successful!]
[Found the Answer!]
[According to the Wisdom Link of Edhen World, I'm an artificially mutated artifact and have neither emotion nor any feelings. But I have the power of Insight, which would help distinguish between right and wrong. Also, I belong to the SS-Series Rank category and could cause considerable damage to the surroundings if not appropriately controlled.]
'But that earlier silence gives the feeling that you might mutate further in the future.' He couldn't help but mutter with a wry smile on his face.
[It is possible during the following transformation, Host! The 'Wisdom Link' advises you to terminate when that happens.]
Charles froze for a mont and soon asked.
'Oh? Then, what is this Wisdom Link?'
[From the gathered information, I can determine that it is a Higher Being!... Alert! Alert! Alert!]
A short pause appeared in his head, followed by the sa familiar synthetic voice.
[Knowing more about it through the Wisdom Link might corrupt the System's information and lead to my destruction. The System advises the Host to abstain from asking such dangerous questions!]
'Even asking such questions leads to the destruction of the System, huh. Interesting. Then, show my current body status.'
Just as he spoke, a blue ga interface appeared in front of his eyes.

While Charles looked at his Status, Runeth and Zera arrived next to him and stared at his face in confusion.
"What happened, lad?" Runeth asked with a frown.
Charles soon snapped out of it and responded with a smile.
"The system cube turned into an artificial system artifact, old man." He paused for a mont and started explaining what he had learned so far.
"Hmm, that Wisdom Link, the Eternal River of Life, Blood River, River of Ti, the Fortune Wheel, and all those mysterious things spread across the universe might be so kind of Higher Beings indeed." While speaking, Runeth glanced at Zera and let out a deep breath.
"If so, then I want to destroy that Eternal River of Life one day and take back Zera's mories and soul!"
At that mont, a blue screen popped up in front of his eyes.
...
[Mission Triggered!]
[Mission Title: Runeth's Eternal Wrath.]
[Goal: Defeat the Higher Being [Eternal River of Life] and help Runeth recover the mory of Wood Elf Zera!]
[Mission Difficulty: Impossible]
[Rewards: ?????]
[Ti Limit: Nil]
...
Before he could even look at the mission, the sa synthetic voice echoed in his head.
[Please refrain from participating in that future mission, Host. The possibility of your survival against any higher being is zero!]
'It's an impossible task, huh.'
But what surprised him was the Mission option.
'Hmm, show your status first.' He ordered.
The next instant, the blue screen blurred and was soon replaced with another one.
...
[Na: System-45 (Upgraded)
Rank: SS-Series
Abilities:
1. Dice of Disasters (1/Year)
2. Ti Stop (1/Year)
3. ?????? (1/1000 Years)
4. Past Touch (1/Week)
5. System's Help (Passive)]
'Hmm? What do the question marks represent? Moreover, I can only use that ability once in 1000 years?' Charles was stunned inside.
[Even I don't have enough information about that option, Host. Unless you activate that option, it's almost impossible to guess the na of that ability.]
Charles furrowed his brows and soon nodded.
'It looks more like so kind of Future prediction ability.'
After that, he turned towards the downhearted Runeth and said solemnly.
"Don't put too much thought into it, old man. If you want to face such a higher being, you need to restore your soul to its peak state and improve further. First, decide whether you want to reincarnate or find a way to restore your original body. Although cloning can help you live like a human, you need more than that to achieve your goal."
"I know," Runeth muttered solemnly and soon shook his head.
"I need so ti to think about it." He deliberated for a mont and soon added.
"You can go and continue your training."
In the anti, Charles nodded his head and was about to walk away but stopped as he recalled sothing.
"What about my mission to the City of Miracles? You said that you will think of a plan to get the reward of the planar invasion mission, right?"
Upon hearing those words, Runeth froze for a mont and soon widened his eyes.
"Yes, I almost forgot about it. In truth, Jessie sent a letter a few days ago and inford that they would place the 'Draught of the Phoenix' potion in the City's museum from May-13 to May-15th for display. She even sent an Airship Ticket for your arrival, but I completely forgot about it."
As he spoke, he hurriedly touched his space ring, took out two crystalline sheets, and gave them to him.
One was a pure bluish color ticket, while the other was reddish.
Charles casually caught the tickets and soon saw his personal information was written on the front page.
"It's the Airship Tickets. Once you arrive at the City of Miracles, you will go through a series of inspection processes. After that, you should go to the museum under Jessie's guidance and replace this 'potion' bottle with the original one."
While saying so, Runeth took out a reddish bottle from his space ring and looked at it deeply.
The bottle made a popping sound, and its crystal turned into a brown liquid while a bit of fla appeared inside. There was also a strange array placed outside the bottle, and it seed mysterious.
As Runeth touched the array, the liquid inside the bottle turned transparent and looked more like water!
"This should be more than enough to do the trick." While saying this, he turned his gaze towards Charles and passed it to him.
"That's it?" Charles stared at the potion bottle in suspicion.
"No. Once you enter the City of Miracle, you need to abide by the rules of the City and refrain from casting any attack magic spells. A re sign of attacking soone with the intention of killing would trigger the arrays that placed all over the City and kill you in an instant." Runeth said in a cold tone.
"What do you an? Casting any attack spell inside the City will get killed? Then, how am I able to achieve my goal? What if the security force finds out my true intent and chases after ?" Charles asked in annoyance.
anwhile, Runeth shook his head and answered.
"You can't retaliate. A small mistake, and you would be bombarded with tens of Legend Rank spells from the sky. That whole City itself is a gigantic divine palace. All you can do is use your wits and steal the potion bottle without alerting anyone." He paused for a mont as he saw the worry in Charles's eyes and then added with a chuckle.
"Don't worry. When you enter the museum, touch the array on the potion bottle, and the water will turn into its previous state. After that, all you have to do is use your mysterious Trickster skill and replace this bottle with the original one. Following that, you and Jessie have to leave the museum in a hurry and reach the Airship station in the next 30 minutes. You can't use any flying spell, nor can you use a teleportation spell inside. Using these spells will attract the security forces, and it will delay your journey for sure." He stopped talking for a mont to take a deep breath and continued.
"The best way for you guys is to rent a carriage and move to the Airship station without showing any suspicious movent. Then, you will see an Airship nad Azure-553 sowhere in Zone-3. Both of you have to find that Airship quickly and leave the City. All in all, you guys have to leave the City within one hour after replacing the potion bottle in the museum."
"Isn't this mission too dangerous?" Charles felt like he was taking a big gamble here.
"You think getting that potion without taking risk is a possible thing? If you don't want to take this chance, you can forget about it." Runeth said impatiently.
anwhile, Charles stored the potion bottle inside his space ring and sighed.
"Haa, it seems I have to play carefully this ti."
Saying so, he enveloped his body in a crimson fla and disappeared from there.
