My gaze sweeps over my new buff, and I feel my stats automatically increase by a massive amount. Not only have I gained over 200 million new links of loyalty in an instant, but the amount of stats I can borrow in total has risen to 50%.
At the same time, I feel a new wave of perception explode out from the tower and wrap around the entire globe.
Not only can I feel and see every single human connected to the system on the planet, but now I feel connected to all 21,480 dungeons covering the globe. There are five labyrinths that hit my senses as well... three of which are not ranked up, all below the threshold that the one in the Crimson City achieved.
However, there is one large labyrinth in Central City that is on the same rank as the one I've been building from the leftover mana in the artificial mountain range.
This sudden rush of information sends hundreds of thousands of notifications into my consciousness.
My personal certificates of ownership for all of these mana constructs are the first things I see, but the vast majority of the notifications I receive are contracts that are linked to these dungeons. The individuals' names flash through my mind, but I don't recognize anyone on the list to match the over 500 million human names I have access to on this world.
I wonder if they're old contracts from before the great war, or if these names are from beings on other worlds...
It's quite the information overload, but the notifications in my ears don't stop there.
For some reason, the voice that reads them aloud is different, more proper and elegant. The text before me shimmers with dense green threads.
[Analyzing New Lord of World M3-99051...]
[Prepayment For 1 Set of Premium Avatars Detected, No Further Resources Required...]
[Mana-Qi Soul Energy Core Detected...]
[Pure Demon Lord's Core Detected...]
[Fully Formed Green True Core Detected...]
[1.20001 Low Quality Ether Detected...]
I feel green divine energy ripple through my body. At first, Celia's barrier blocks it, but I witness Ember allowing the light to probe him, so I relax and do the same.
Once it finishes and disappears a few seconds later, a perfect body double of myself forms a few meters in front of me; however, it is made completely of mana, and there are three empty cores in its chest.
The same cloning design is being made in front of Ember's body too, and when they finish, a final text option appears before me.
[Assimilate With Avatar]
[Re-Synchronize]
Ember grins and walks right past the lifelike designs in front of us.
"We're not going to need these."
He allows the silver light that's been shimmering around him to retract back into his chest, and I see a bright green True Core cycling the threads he absorbed on the walk up emit a dense pressure on our surroundings.
Trace amounts of silver threads vibrate in his flesh in microscopic areas that haven't yet fully adapted, but seconds later a wave of white energy washes over his whole body to completely mask all of the silver threads from my gaze.
He turns back and raises a hand to motion for me.
"Come on, those avatars were for that Vermillion Family Demon. There's no point in claiming a fake body if we have our own real ones."
