Chapter 247: The Strongest Above The Sky (1/2)

Rex is currently inside a car with Edward and Adhara,

Although they will go finish the quests from Evelyn and the Carabidis Temple, there is something Rex needed to do first.

Not long after, they all reach their destination.

The car parked on the parking lot of the Crystalline of Mana,

Rex already did his final media on his brain right after leaving Kyran to deal with the maid, and now the only thing left to do is reach the sixth rank.

'Why does he insist I go here', Rex thought with a sigh.

~

A couple of hours earlier, Inside a quiet room.

Black lightning mana burst forth from inside Rex's body, the connector that connects the media and the media glows with lightning mana as the process has been completed.

Chandler is looking at Rex while nodding his head,

With the last piece of the puzzle finished, Rex can now assimilate with a spirit.

Rex stands up before inspecting his body,

The changes in power now can be felt directly, controlling the mana is now a hundred times easier than before.

He then stretches his hand and gathers the surrounding lightning mana,

BLITZ!

But to Rex's surprise, instead of managing to create one lightning strike with a shape of a dragon, he now can create 5 lightning strikes on a whim.

It's like the lightning mana is an extended limb of him, and he can control it precisely.

Looking at this, Chandler then said, ”By connecting all of the media, your control over mana increases greatly. And now, you can assimilate with a spirit”

Hearing this, Rex smiles in delight.

He then immediately open the shop and thought, 'System, I want to buy Devo the Gatekeeper'

<Devo the Gatekeeper Costs 100,000 Gold, Do the user want to continue?>

Reading this, Rex hesitated for a moment because of the costs of the spirit but he know it will be worth it, 'Buy it!'

<Devo the Gatekeeper will be put in the inventory>

While Rex is talking to the system, Chandler is still talking, ”Spirit is hard to find but some are already captured, you can purchase it from the Awakened Trading Center or even asks Vargas to get you the good ones”

But then suddenly,

SWOOSH!!

CRACKK!

Devastatingly powerful energy suddenly invaded the place.

Chandler looks to the side in surprise before his expression turns into horror, a spirit appeared behind Rex's back that makes his skin crawl in fright.

Even his own spirit trembles after feeling the spirit behind Rex.

It's like a dog meeting with a lion, they're not in the same league, not in the least.

A grey spirit appeared behind Rex like a ghost,

All of the spirit's entire being is made of misty cloud that instantly fills the room, two piercing eyes spit lightning around the place. Both of its fists have a bubble enveloping them and cracking with black lightning just like Rex's, and chains wrapped around its body.

Chandler's feet suddenly got engulfed by mists that suddenly appear around the room, he can't see his own feet because of the mists.

Rex saw this spirit behind him in awe, the spirit is big and muscular.

The spirit's face doesn't have a definite shape, only two glowing eyes can be seen and the spirit's suppressing aura is thick and terrifying, it even feels ancient for some reason.

Looking at this, Chandler steps back subconsciously.

CRACK!!

Under Rex's eyes, the wall around the quiet room started to crack by the sheer presence of the spirit because the spirit just emit horrifying energy.

The room started to crumble because of the spirit,

Devo's eyes then landed on Chandler coldly as if he's seeing an ant.

Getting the stare from Devo makes Chandler's heart skip a beat,

The energy Devo emitted is like a tidal wave that drowns anyone that got hit by it, and even Chandler who has become a sixth rank Awakened for years is not confident in resisting the energy.

It's simply unbelievable, the strongest spirit that he has ever seen, no doubt.

Looking at his surroundings that can't hold the spirit's pressure, Rex then puts the spirit back into his inventory hurriedly.

Rex didn't expect the spirit to cause such a ruckus.

Chandler gaze at Rex in disbelief, he can't believe that there's such a spirit out there and how did Rex manage to get it.

BAM! BAM! BAM!

The door got knocked a couple of times,

When Chandler opened it, another lecturer went inside the room, ”What happened here? I felt terrifying energy coming from this room”

But when the lecturer wanted to inquire further, the words stuck on his throat upon seeing Rex.

”I'm sorry for disturbing you”, the lecturer apologized before he left.

The turn of events caught Rex by surprise, the lecturer came barging inside the room in a hurry but upon seeing him the lecturer immediately left.

'Do I look scary?', Rex thought with a wry smile.

After the lecturer left, Chandler approached Rex and said, ”Is that your spirit?”

”Yes”, Rex replied calmly.

Hearing this, Chandler gulped harshly before he said, ”So that explains why you have such an immense amount of mana inside each of your media, turns out you're trying to assimilate with such a terrifying spirit”

Now that Chandler saw Rex's spirit, what Rex did becomes reasonable.

Heck, even Chandler thought that what Rex did is not enough, he didn't believe that anyone can try assimilating with that spirit and live let alone fully assimilated with it.

But unknown to him, the system already calculated it for Rex.

”The university's facility can't hold that kind of spirit energy, you must assimilate with that energy in Crystalline of Mana which has the strongest place for spirit assimilating”, Chandler said with a sigh.

He's still trying to grasp what he just saw, it caught him completely off guard.

Rex frowns before he said, ”Really? If I can do it fast then there's no problem right?”

”No, No, No”, Chandler said hurriedly.

He then explained, ”Even if you can assimilate with that spirit fast, there's a phenomenon that will be caused during assimilating with a spirit. You see, in order to assimilate with a spirit we must lock their own media and bind them to ours, the stronger the spirit the more media the spirit have”

”Every time a spirit's media is locked, a shockwave bursting from your body will be caused. Denzel, one of our current ninth rank has a powerful spirit. His spirit has 7 media, and the shockwaves burn the place around him in a 100 meters radius”

Hearing this, Rex nodded his head.
