79 Chapter 74 : Dazzling rays of red light. (1/2)
” Close your eyes, place your palms over it's surface, and let your mana flow through it. ”
Resounding the words exclaimed by the old Arlong within his brains. Mark placed his plams over the mysterious object and let his mana flow through its surface, waiting excitedly to see the results.
Unlike his expectations, mark had received a ” ding! ” immediately from the system, as a regular warning.
” Ding! A serious warning to host. Never show your true potential, if host could not guarantee his safety after reveling it! ”
It was true that exhibiting a potential that could threaten others, will result in jealousy and would only bring more harm to him than good.
Since the spectators had already been eyeing on marks relic. They already had a strong resolve to begin with, to obtain the invaluable weapon from his hands.
Things like artifacts and relics are unique. Once binded to a master, they may never be able to bind to the other users, unless it's previous contract with its master had been terminated.
I.e. the previous master had either voluntarily gave up his bond with it, or his bond with it had been separated after its masters death.
Since a thing like relic was not a thing to be forsaken easily, and what if they were not able to force mark in giving up his relics ownership.
Killing mark would only be the suitable alternative, for them to make the relic owner less, and also for it to come under their hold.
Convincing the relic to bind with them though was nearly impossible under normal measures, but that a thing of future to worry about.
Had the potential exhibited by mark threatened their status, the onset of the disaster befalling mark would only be intensified.
As the major forces are always competitive and would never keep their hands still and allow a threat like mark to grow under their noses, and be nurtured further by flame glory family, and who knows if he could become the next farthur for flame glory, standing at its supporting pillar, that could very well alter the power structure on this floor again.
” Though I could understand about your reasoning, aren't these spectators bound by a restriction, which prevented from leaking the information out. And I also want to know the potential of the body I am reincarnated with.
I believe that the mysterious power that erupted within my body, for a short while, during the fight against selvira had to do some thing with my bloodline instead! ”
It was true that the spectators were restricted by their vow, and couldn't exclaim the things happened on the inside, to their respective forces on the outside.
But still, it didn't leave the possibility of upper management's playing underhanded tricks in their place. As there were many other holes for them to use, to suck out the information from the souls of the very spectators.
Yes, there was a thing called soul search. Though it could let a person read the memories of others, it would adversely unstabilize the abused person's foundation and also retard his future progress in cultivation.
The case of a relic was sensitive and who knows that these major forces would not just stop at sacrificing a hundred of their kin, if necessary the number could very well increase to thousands or even more.
Mark had even guessed the possibility of hidden recording objects, similar to the ones old arlong had been using before.
Since the matter of rankers and chosen twenty were always managed by the authorities of upper management. This masters test which was a shortcut to that list of rankers hadn't to be an exception either.
Who knows whether it had been secretly monitored by them, the third party behind the scenes.
The sensation, which mark had felt few days before in his battle against selvira was an unforgettable one.
He felt that each cells in his body were brimming with life, bursting out vitality from it. Each of his muscle fibers burning with tons of energy made him stronger by a multiple number of times. His perception had increased sharply, which made his reaction speed incredibly faster.
The advantages brought about by the slayers title had paled in comparison to it. Mark had guessed that it had to do with something, related to the bloodline he had inherited from his parents.
If the true potential of his body was really greater than his expectations, that sensation could very well be related to it, if not he was just blindly making assumptions.
” Ding! Since host wishes to measure his potential, let the system analyze the object at close, and see weather system may alter it's functions, if possible! ”
Mark had placed his palms over the object, he had been standing on the very same position for more than a dozen of seconds. Yet there wasn't a response from the device, visible to the spectators viewing from a distance.
Since the object had been working perfectly for many millennium to begin with, there hasn't been a case where it had malfunctioned before.
Since the possibility of it being malfunctioned is less and if there wasn't a response immediately after injecting ones mana, then the only possible outcome were two extreme cases.
One being a worthless trash that didn't even had a proper potential to begin with, while the other was a case of peerless genius, whose potential was so high that the device had been taking a long time measuring it.
” Ding! Responding to host, the systems analyze had been completed. After analysing the object at close, some of it's features resembles similar to awakening apparatus, host had seen in the main land before!
The potential meter had displaced the crystal stones arrangement, and a strange object, restricted to systems access had been found next to it. ”
” Awakening apparatus! ” Mark clearly remembered that process as if it had just happened yesterday.
That was the very moment he obtained both his laws, the trump cards which had qualitatively boosted his strength to a new realm.
” System! What would be the measure of my potential according to your analysis? If it's low, then do not even bother yourself by exclaiming it out in my brains. ”
Mark had exclaimed internally, he was both exited and nervous at this very moment. But his eyes brimmed with anxiety shortly, when he heard the words rang out by systems.
” Ding! According to the systems analysis the hosts potential comes around at the upper peak of dark phase of black grade potential. Which is an a grade lower than highest, the colourless prism grade potential! ”
Since he was the first person to test his potential, mark doesn't know the exact grade of the potential an average person would get.
After the systems warning, mark couldn't sigh that his body's potential was high, since it was second next to the highest. But still he couldn't reveal it out, proudly to the spectators before him.
