Chapter 327: There Will Be War
Compass Carburettor continued to fly away, intending to head towards another continent if necessary. His sole task now was to hurry away as much as possible.
Anyway, thanks to the Secret Network, he could obtain support from Grisha and Gana whenever necessary.
Gana would send him piles upon piles of pearls while Grisha would send him the External Items of Fortress. Both would help increase his Mental Energy reserves drastically.
The humans that he had entrusted the Fortress with were doing great, having already selected great spots to build it and gather people within.
He also had another goal, and that was to find special mutated beasts that acted as the lord of their region and turn them into Members of Secret Society. This way, he could use them to command their entire race.
And, when it was time for the System Hosts to deal with him, Ianon would alert him. At that time, he would store all the mutated beasts in his Dimensional Space and let them out to fight the System Hosts.
This way, he wouldn't be fighting against them alone. And, with the capabilities of both Dust Wave and his Homing Feathers, fighting battles in groups was perfect for him. He was capable of targeting his enemies without fear of harming his allies.
In the Secret Network, Grisha and Gana exchanged the Quirks of Remembrance and Beast Form.
Grisha was now able to assume Haggon Form. Adding onto the property of Secret Society, she too was able to cheat death the same way as him. And in her case, she could constantly make her spirit form turn into a Haggon to fight.
The ability of Beast Form only functioned when they were a beast, So, both Gana and Grisha were unable to use the energy blade while in their human/horned men forms.
But still, once they transformed into a Haggon, they were unstoppable. Also, Grisha possessed Darlac even in her human form.
The results pretty much made Compass Carburettor finalise his subsequent plan. He would create more Beyonders and fight against the System Hosts. That was a sound plan.
After all, the Beyonders would be able to fragment their Skills into Quirks that they could give to other Beyonders, causing everyone to grow stronger.
Gana had fallen unconscious, in the process of recalling memories from her previous loops. Since he had already warned her of the consequences beforehand, she had planned accordingly, telling the horned men of what to do while in her absence.
As she fell unconscious, they treated her, ensuring she wouldn't lose any strength.
'Once she wakes up, there is a good chance she would be on Grisha's level.' He smiled. Even if Gana hadn't become a powerhouse in her loops, the experience of 48 loops was still a great sum, enough to change any person.
'I still need to gauge the attack power of this mutated beast's ability.' He gazed at his hand, wondering how strong the ability that killed Krager would be. This was perfect against System Hosts.
'Core Skills are troublesome. I can feel that they are the reason every System says that a System Slayer's end is gruesome. And, based on what I felt before, Core Skills are dangerous if I continue to accumulate them at this rate.' He frowned, "I should make more Beyonders instead and expand my network."
'Also, even in that dream-like thing in the mind space, there were no problems with my Personal Fragments. So, that's the safest way to grow stronger.' He thought, 'I should prevent Stencil from turning into a True System Slayer. Once I fully understand the secret to obtaining Personal Fragments, I'll help her get more of them so that she has enough strength to protect herself.'
"Soon, I'll be there within a year. Please hold on until then, Stencil." He closed his eyes, sighing as he firmed himself, unconcerned about what methods he would take next. He didn't have the mood to wait that long, wishing to kill the System Hosts as quickly as possible.
"But first, I must improve Anthozoa." Muttering as such, he focused on Carburettor Island.
As it was a product of the Young Master System Fragment, the created people didn't question the difference in the environment. They just treated it as normal. As for the rest, they behaved like their original selves.
At present, in the research institute, all the scientists had huddled together, gazing at Anthozoa as they heard Compass Carburettor's words in their minds, "Your task is to upgrade my Anthozoa. Improve its muzzle velocity and bullet storage capacity."
At present, only the bullets shot by Anthozoa contained the laws of a world, the prime means he relied upon to incapacitate a System. Even though the Dragon of System's power too was capable of killing System Hosts, he was still unsure about how strong its effect was.
So, improving upon his original weapon was necessary. As long as the number of bullets Anthozoa had was increased, it'll make his life a lot easier. And what else to do than to give the task to the very same group of intellects that had created it?
He had gathered talents from around the world—Earth—to create it. So, he was rather expectant of the results. It was not to mention that Dita, Golda, and Dota were willing to support them.
Dota; that was the name the Dragon of System came up with for itself. It pretty much copied Dita's name and changed a vowel.
Moreover, the prime direction of research the team of scientists had to do involved using the carcass of Dota. It had left behind one in the Dimensional Space. There were also its eggshells that Compass Carburettor had collected from the Reality Marble.
Due to its properties, he felt that it was the perfect material suited to upgrading his Anthozoa. It was pretty realistic and possible. Though, as to how long it might take, he was unsure. But, he was willing to wait.
'Dimensional Space has tremendous potential. Thanks to Dota, Secret Society too has received an upgrade. Now, only Anthozoa is left.' He thought, continuing to fly as he began to formulate a plan and think of his next target.
Before the System Hosts finished their preparations and charged at him, he had to take out as many of them as possible and increase the number of Beyonders on his side.
"There will be a war, alright."
