The Ultimate Support Character

Chapter 484 Elevating The Earth's Strength (2)



In truth, Lexie's statement about what they're looking at was correct.

At the moment it looked just like a normal simulation.

However, the Researcher who was testing the prototype device also had some apparatuses attached to his body to monitor the change that would happen in him.

It was a combination of their two technologies wherein by fighting whatever they generated inside the simulation, one would be able to absorb the stored Source Energy in the storage attached to the processing unit of the device.

The screen next to what's happening inside the simulation was monitoring his vitals as well as his absorption of energy.

Lexie's reaction to it was normal for a World of Meta's denizen.

They were aware of the world's Source Energy and were capable of actively absorbing it to nourish their bodies. If they could only absorb Energy after defeating an enemy or completing a quest, they would stop playing altogether and just actively absorb inside an Energy Absorption Room.

However, the Earthlings weren't like them. Most of them were leading a normal life and were relying on various forms of entertainment to get by.

That's why by putting in a game mechanic in the Virtual Simulation even if it appeared lousy in the eyes of the World of Meta denizens, it would be a heavenly and lifelong dream of most of the Earthlings.

"Looking good. It's like those... What do they call it there? RPGs?" Nysia smiled and lightly tapped the old Researcher on his shoulder upon observing the test that they were doing for the prototype.

At the moment the one in the simulation was walking across a simulated ruined city while only having a small metal sword in his hand. At the top left corner of the screen, his character's name along with his Hit Points and Energy that was being portrayed by red and blue rectangular bars could be seen.

There was also a label called 'Level' next to his name and below it was his current rank and UPL.

The old Researcher adopted the Universal Standard at the behest of Daisuke.

Because he knew that reaching Transcendent could be achieved in less than a year at the fastest for an Earthling, the Realm names for the Mortal Pathway would only be used as a title for every major breakthrough that would happen for a player.

What's showing on the screen for the prototype tester was Rank 3 Mortal for Universal Rank and 35 for his UPL.

As for his title, It was Gold-rank Tier 3.

With his poor equipment in the simulation, he could be seen cutting down different Dark World Denizens wearing a Powergen that's only covering a part of their bodies or native beasts that could be seen at the far reaches of the main continent of the World of Meta.

Whenever he would kill one, the Energy Storage would send him a blob of Meta Energy to the Helmet that was serving as his link to the Virtual Simulation and the Energy Storage.

It was directly being injected through that Helmet to spare the process of actively absorbing it.

Everyone had the ability to passively absorb energy but if one would only rely on that, it would take them years to reach Rank 2 Mortal unless one was an unparalleled genius like Fleur or a cheat-like existence like Daisuke.

And this method of sending a blob of Energy for every killed enemy in the simulation could be said to be semi-active. If he couldn't kill one for a long time then he was just wasting his time playing the game.

"The absorption of Energy is truly subpar if it will only come through killing enemies. Old man Steron, are there other ways for one to absorb energy?"

"I only followed the instructions sent by Lexie from your husband. I could tune it to send Energy every second if you want but he specifically instructed me to make it so that one will only absorb energy by doing something in the game. He said to create a whole new world but as you can see… the Virtual Engine was only using our own world as a model. It's still a prototype. Hence, one can only do one thing. Kill, kill and kill."

The old man explained before stepping forward to stop the simulation.

"Do you want to try it?" He turned his head to the three women while holding up the prototype Virtual Gaming Device.

Lexie immediately shook her head while Nysia was contemplating something so she didn't hear the old man's question.

Not having any choice, Elise slightly smiled before stepping forward, "Let me. Make the spawning enemies be Transcendents."

"Miss Elise, I'm afraid we cannot do that. It's still in the early stages of development. The current Energy Storage will not be able to support the amount of Energy a Transcendent will give to the 'player'. Moreover, please limit your strength to below Transcendent or it will break."

"…"

Speechless upon hearing that she couldn't go all out in a Virtual Simulation, Elise could only nod. She knew it was only a prototype but considering the current state of advanced technology of the World of Meta, she thought it was only easy to make.

'Daisuke is being meticulous in this device, will it really work?' She couldn't help but think before diving into the 'game'

Three days after I visited the EDA and passed the Baptismal Chamber to them, the first set of Doors of Transcendence for the EDA Officers finally showed up all around the world.

Because they all went back to their various duties after that meeting with me, the Doors of Transcendence showed in every continent on the current Earth.

And to hype it up, every media station all around the world began reporting about those 'huge doors in the sky' for the public to be aware of.

Along with those Door of Transcendence, on the other side of the world, specifically the United States of America, a press conference was currently being held for the launching of a new multi-billion dollar company called Levatus that promised the whole world the launching of the first-ever FIVR Game or Full Immersion Virtual Reality Game.

Well, that's the Company I created using the sly old man's money. With the EDA moving in the background for me, it was easy to buy a whole building and hire experts that would be the face for it.

With those two exclusive and explosive news happening all around the world. The hype was properly built up.

The world or rather, those who were still trying to go back to their normal lives even after being exposed to the Earth Energy all stopped in what they were doing.

In less than five minutes since the Doors of Transcendence and the announcement of the first-ever FIVR Game, the internet already exploded with numerous discussions.

And through the words of EDA Soldiers spread out at every corner of the world, they're all reporting that everyone's topic right now was those two while they're all watching in earnest on what would happen next.

"We're here, Daisuke."

Dannae said as soon as she appeared from the opened Portal in front of me.

Following her were Noelle, Caila, Reinys and Zerina.

Caila andZerina were dragging two chained individuals with them while Reinys and Noelle were positioned behind with both of their staff ready to fire an offensive Skill at any moment.

"Good job. Thank you for picking them up. Put them down… And sit here with me." I tapped the free space on both of my sides on this long sofa.

Upon hearing my words, Dannae flashed a wide grin and jumped to my left while Noelle took my right.

Reinys who was deliberating suddenly looked sullen upon seeing that the two spots were already occupied.

However, before she could sit next to Noelle, I pulled on her hand and sat her in between my legs as I hugged her navel tight.

"Noelle has already warmed up to me, why not you?" I whispered in her ear which made the girl flinch before headbutting me and kissing me.

Well, it didn't hurt anyway. Besides, saying Noelle had already warmed up to me didn't mean she also became one of my lovers. I was more of being looked up to by her like an older brother even if she's older than me in terms of earthly age.

The two Knights Caila and Zerina who put down and had the two captives in front of us to kneel took on the free space next to Noelle and Dannae,

The two captives were obviously the two Rank 3 Transcendent Captives.

The long-nosed Transcendent from the Arania World and the red-skinned Transcendent from the Nightwolf World.

Being deprived of their Source Energy, the two still looked imposing.

According to these girls who picked them up at that special cage I made for them, they were still somewhat frightened upon seeing them.

It's natural. It's like what happened to those EDA Soldiers after all.

These two were genuine Rank 3 Transcendents whose UPL was more than 700.

When I used the UPL Scanner on them, the estimated UPL value for the red-skinned Transcendent was 800 while the long-nosed Transcendent was 900.

And that means the two of them were still considered early Rank 3 Transcendent. Perhaps the wolf guy was only a little above 750 while the long-nosed was 850.

Compared to our UPL they're still considered an overwhelming opponent.

Nonetheless, the reason for them to be brought before was, of course, the deliverance of the wolf guy's condition to live. He was going to assimilate the Earth Energy while for the long-nosed…

I am going to make him Earth's new Rank 3 Transcendent.

With one from those old fossils group dead. They needed some kind of reinforcement.

The question is… will he be willing to convert and become connected to Earth?

Of course… He will. There were only two paths for him after all. Become tied up in that Baptismal Chamber to donate his life force or… to forsake his world completely.
