Chapter 158: True mana (V)
Blake needed a greater amount of energy to fill up his stars when compared to those with 2 elements, but what shocked Castiel and Brian was the fact that a gap of 4 stars was between them.
Unknown to them, it was all because of one of the space element\'s passive. The space element made a chronomancer more sensitive to his /her surroundings and that included mana, also it granted a default mana control greater than that of the other elements.
(AN: I hope you guys can picture how overpowered the space element and why I am limit it, especially the time authority.)
Also, Blake had been receiving various training to increase his mana control, making him able to quickly and effectively drain the energy store in a beast core.
"I am tired, I will be going to bed..." Blake said to Brian and Castiel, leaving them flabbergasted.
"Did he just sleep, on us?" Brian asked Castiel just to make sure his eyes were working.
"Yup…" Castiel replied.
Blake had no idea that the reason they were awake was that they were waiting for him, but since he was already fast asleep, they decided to follow suit.
…
The following morning…
[System upgrades complete. System skills now available to host.]
"Huuh?" Blake groaned as he opened his eyes.
\'Are you back and why did you ghost all of a sudden without any information?\' Blake asked a mental question as he rubbed his eyes.
[Yeah I am back and how was I to know I would undergo an upgrade just because you formed the 3rd pillar.] The system said.
\'True…\' Blake couldn\'t help but agree to the system\'s words.
If it had been after he formed the 2nd pillar, it would have been understandable since it was half of the protective layer, but the 3rd pillar was totally unexpected.
"How do feel, any changes?" Blake asked.
[Why don\'t you check for yourself...] The system said with a \'smirk\'.
[Host information:

Strength: Average.
Condition: healthy
Realm: third pillar of the Champion realm.

·? ? ? ? Detection range (300m) (Active)

·? ? ? ? Battle mode (Active) (Passive)
]
(AN: lol, my poor naming skills are back at it XD)
\'Wow, the detection range got tripled. Three new skills, let\'s check it out.\' Blake rubbed his palms together as he selected the mind link skill.
[Mind link: When someone/ people who possess a part of the All-father\'s consciousness is within 20 meters from the host, the system is able to form a mental link with all parties, enabling them to share their thoughts.]
\'This solves a lot of issues.\' Blake couldn\'t hide the joy in his eyes. He felt like immediately trying out the skill on Brian and Castiel who were still fast at sleep, but he decided to hold himself till he was done.
[Mental boost:
(Active): Once activated, the system converts the host\'s mana into electric charges that supercharge the brain, causing an increase in its efficiency to more than 2 twice the original efficiency.
(Passive): In order for the brain to handle the stress which comes along with the system\'s enhanced skills, the host\'s brain cells were forced to undergo an upgrade that increased its processing speed, brainpower, and memory capacity.
Note: This skill leaves the host\'s brain cells drained after use and the adverse effects are proportional to how long it is used.)]
\'That explains why I suddenly became tired…\' Blake thought to himself as he recalled what happened when he stopped cultivating.
[Battle mode:
(Active): On the host\'s permission, the system would be able to take control of the host\'s body, while the host\'s consciousness takes the place of the system until he cancels the skill.
During the battle mode state, the system is able to use the host\'s body, skills, elements, and it\'s knowledge, but the host will experience a harsh backlash when the skill is deactivated.
(Passive): When the host loses consciousness and his life is perceived as being threatened, the system would automatically take over and if the threat is assessed to be greater than the host\'s power, its first priority is to get to safety.]
\'Not of fan of being controlled by a system, but damn, these upgrades are fire!\' Although he didn\'t like the conditions of the battle mode, Blake couldn\'t help but think about the possible things he could do with them.
\'If this is an upgrade just for the champion realm, then I wonder what the next upgrade will be.\' Blake thought with an unbridled smile on his face.
\'Alright, time to test the mind link out.\' Blake said with an evil grin as he stared at Castiel and Brian who were still sleeping.
[Does the host want to activate Mind link?] With just a thought, a notification popped up.
\'Yes.\'
"Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3." Blake\'s smile intensified when he saw them groaning.
"Rise and shine!"
"Hu?"
"What the fuck?!"
Almost at the same time both of them woke up and began looking around, it was when they saw Blake\'s grin that knew he had done something.
"What\'s going on, what did you do?" Castiel asked.
\'It\'s what I call a mind link.\' Blake.
"Holy cow!" The two stood instantly stood up when they heard Blake\'s voice without his mouth moving.
[Since he is hell-bent on messing with you guys, let me get this over with and do the explanation.] The system\'s voice in their heads shocked everyone including Blake.
After convincing them that it wasn\'t a ghost or the owner of the facility trying to mess with their minds, the system brought their attention to the most important topic at the moment, the black fog.
