Chapter 770 - Evolution (2/2)
Of course, the last one was reserved for Roland and Stephanie.
However, the workers were free to use the first two.
They had used the two teleportation arrays a lot during the construction in the previous half year.
It was needless to mention the capital of Fareins, which was their home.
Wetland City, a city that they heard a lot about, gave them a lot of surprises too.
In fact, as more and more teleportation arrays were established in the world, transportation would be easier and easier.
The flying mounts were faced with great competitive pressure.
However, the floating city was still very important. It was safe!
In the main plane, the floating city was one of the greatest weapons. Also, if they lived in the city, they could proudly call themselves Citizens of the Sky.
With that in mind, they asked Roland to give them a place to stay in.
After all, the city was built by them and their disciples. The living areas in it could accommodate more than a hundred thousand people.
Roland thought for a moment and said, “Personally, I’m happy to let you stay, but it remains unknown if you’ll be allowed to leave Fareins. Besides, I’ll spend a lot of time in the Astral Plane later, which won’t be safe. So, why don’t you tell your opinion to Stephanie first, so that she and I can make a decision after I return from the Astral Plane?”
This was a good point. Those people were willing to wait, but the royal family of Fareins might not want to let them go.
All these masters were talents that had been kept for generations. Even their disciples were top experts in architecture and carpentry.
Under normal circumstances, no country would let such a batch of talents go abroad.
Those masters all sighed and left one after another.
After confirming that the floating city was empty, Roland flew it to the heights.
He flew higher above the clouds and reached the border between the Astral Plane and the main plane.
Above his head was a dark sky, and below him was a stretch of clouds that looked like white fungi.
Roland teleported himself to the Magic Grid Core and looked at the connected magic power bricks. After examining them and confirming their functionality, he took the Brutalization Divine Spark out of the system Backpack. To be honest, Roland didn’t like the Divine Spark. He knew what brutalization meant very well.
The Divine Spark appeared and glowed in Roland’s hand.
Then, the Magic Grid Core began to shiver, as if it was trying to vibrate at the same frequency as the Brutalization Divine Spark did in order to absorb it.
Without any hesitation, Roland connected himself to the Magic Grid Core. When he was emitting greenness all over, he threw the fragment of the Brutalization Divine Spark into the core without hesitation.
The white ball of energy instantly melted like snow in boiling oil.
Roland sensed something additional in his mental world.
Because he was connected to the Magic Grid Core, throwing something to the Magic Grid Core was no different from throwing it into his brain.
The Divine Spark fragment melted into streams of energy, and a lot of intermittent memory pieces were separated.
Some of them belonged to Abak, and some belonged to others. They were probably the collective memories of the former Gods of Brutalization.
The memories overlapped each other. They were quite nauseating.
Looking at those images, one would subconsciously think that they were part of their memories, but then their intellect would tell them that they weren’t.
The conflict could easily result in sickness and disorientation.
So, Roland tried to stop himself from peeking at those memories, yet they voluntarily came to him.
On the other hand, the Divine Spark was essentially a collection of human subconsciousness and emotions.
Therefore, the Brutalization Divine Spark was basically full of blood and gore.
Also, those memories had a clear purpose, which was to reside inside the soul of an intelligent creature, probably because only intelligent creatures had complex emotions.
Although it was only one-third of the original Divine Spark, the memories in it were still overwhelming.
Roland was very strong at this moment. Also, his willpower was surprisingly high after he was connected to the Magic Grid Core. However, the problem was that he had never really practiced any soul magic.
So, he was caught with a serious problem… He could not block or assimilate the memories or broken souls in the Divine Spark piece.
A myriad of souls appeared in Roland’s mental world.
There were souls in the sky and on the ground.
The broken memories and souls almost crammed the entire world.
Roland, on the other hand, was like a poor guy on a crowded metro and couldn’t move at all.
What should he do?
Roland’s soul let out a weak and helpless cry.
If it went on like this, he would be squished by the unowned memories sooner or later.
While he was at a loss about what to do, the land of his mind fell apart and a huge chasm appeared.
A bright ball of light surfaced from the depths of his soul.
The ball emitted a warm brilliance and generated a weird attraction force. It first absorbed the souls in the sky.
It then absorbed the souls on the ground.
Roland watched the ball of light in shock and finally remembered what it was.
It was his virtual Divine Spark.
He had mostly used it as a soul connector between him and Anna. He never used it on other occasions, so he almost forgot that he had such a fancy weapon.
Looking at the souls that had been compressed into black pearls inside the light ball, Roland instantly felt uncomfortable.
After all, everybody was more or less a victim to trypophobia.
Then, his consciousness was ejected from the soul world.
The Magic Grid Core in front of his eyes glowed and dimmed like a beating heart.
Then, Roland received two system notifications.
“The Magic Grid Core is swallowing divine energy. The result is unknown. Countdown: 23:58:11.”
“Your virtual Divine Spark is converting to the Brutalization Divine Spark. 71:58:11 to go until the fully successful conversion.”
He was turning into a God of Brutalization?
Wait, he wasn’t even a Demigod yet!
