Capítulo 3: Chapter 3 System, Upgrade Me!_1
The tumultuous cave passage had once again returned to its former tranquility.
Thankfully it was the "Grey Night period," and there were no adventurers nearby.
Otherwise, with the commotion just now, the two of them would have definitely been caught red-handed.
Carlos, crouching down, peered into the depths of the Demon King's Sealing Door through a fist-sized hole.
He clicked his tongue in wonder.
"Tsk, tsk... Tuck, I had no idea you were so powerful!"
"A Demon King's Sealing Door that many have failed to deal with, and you've managed to open it."
"If word of this gets out... the title of Demon King's Grave Digger is inescapable for you."
The corner of Tuck's eye twitched; he didn't take Carlos's teasing too seriously, and after examining the hole for a moment, he spoke earnestly.
"It has opened, but not completely; the power of the seal still lingers within the hole."
"To be more precise, it's just as if the crack that was there before has widened by a tiny bit."
Tuck was indeed correct; though there was now a hole, the overall power of the Door of Seal still existed.
As much as he said that, Tuck also knew.
Once others discover that the Demon King's Sealing Door had been opened into a large hole,
it's likely that adventurers from afar and the local Transcendents will swarm here.
The fallen Land of Seals of the Demon King.
Is there a better treasure land than this?
At that time, it's likely that powerful wizards will follow the hole and shatter the door completely.
But no matter what,
the process was somewhat unexpected, but the purpose of this trip had been achieved.
Previously a mere touch was required to activate the System's functions.
And now, with such a large hole with even the spirit bridge laid across it, the functionality of the System was unquestionably within reach.
After a glance at Carlos, who was circling the hole with interest, inspecting the situation on the other side,
Tuck exhaled softly, took a few steps back, and sat down beside the campfire.
"System!"
As Tuck's thoughts stirred, a pale blue interface appeared in his mind.
[Origin Energy, Dungeon Passage]
Origin Energy Experience: 1.2 Experience/hour.
[Special Resources]: None.
...
The current System merely offered "1.2 Experience/hour" of Origin Energy Experience.
And it was with the "Origin Energy Experience" provided by the System
that Tuck was able to rapidly increase his Level and proficiency in Transcendent skills, thus possessing considerable strength.
With a glance from the corner of his eye at the Demon King's Sealing Door he had just chiseled,
Tuck clicked on "Location Search."
After the search was complete, a brand new area appeared.
[Devil, Dungeon Seal]
Origin Energy Experience: 5.8 Experience/hour.
[Special Resources]
Talent Fragments: 7.2 Fragments/day.
...
Looking over the brand new breeding location,
Tuck's heart trembled slightly.
"The Origin Energy Experience has increased fourfold compared to before."
"And what's more important is..."
"The Special Resources have finally arrived."
"And it's the extremely valuable 'Talent Fragments.'
In his mind, the function of "Talent Fragments" as described by the System materialized,
as well as the immense role of [Transcendent Talent] in the Transcendent World.
For a moment, his mind was filled with unusual ripples of thought.
Fortunate to have lived two lives, Tuck, experienced in strange encounters, quickly steadied his mind.
Switching to a new breeding area—[Devil, Dungeon Seal].
With Tuck's command, the System's prompt sounded.
"Ding! Breeding location [Devil, Dungeon Seal] anchored."
"Would you like to conduct a 62-day Rapid Sweep? After the Rapid Sweep, you will not be able to change the anchored area for 62 days."
Every time you switch to a new area, you get the opportunity for a corresponding Rapid Sweep.
This too is a rare chance for Rapid Growth.
Even though the lockdown will last for 62 days,
for the system that mainly focuses on stable, long-term development, this is hardly a problem.
"Yes!"
With Tuck's confirmation,
the breeding log on the right swiftly recorded the entire Rapid Sweep process.
"Day 1, gained 139.2 Origin Energy Experience, obtained 7.2 Talent Fragments."
"Day 2, gained 139.2 Origin Energy Experience, obtained 7.2 Talent Fragments."
...
"Day 62, gained 139.2 Origin Energy Experience, obtained 7.2 Talent Fragments."
The 62 days of Rapid Growth were completed in a matter of seconds.
Talent Fragments: 446 pieces.
Looking at the number of Talent Fragments, Tuck's heart couldn't help but beat faster.
"Each Talent Fragment can enhance 1% of Talent progress."
"That means these 446 Talent Fragments could transform my Transcendent Talent [Precision] from C Grade directly into S Level."
"Carlos's sister was valued and received focus training from Count Ramore because she possessed a B Grade Transcendent Talent, and was even acclaimed as a genius of the Ramore City-State."
"Once a top-tier genius with A Grade Transcendent Talent appears, many large Transcendent City States, and even those major powers' Transcendent Academies, will spare no effort to compete for them, treating them as core individuals for cultivation."
"And S Level Transcendent Talent..."
Tuck's mind was crowded with the few legends he knew about S Level Transcendent Talent.
Yes, S Level Transcendent Talent basically existed only in legends.
And most of those records weren't very detailed.
"Sigh..."
Tuck, who had exhaled a breath lightly, massaged his temples and didn't rashly allocate points.
After all, Tuck didn't know what changes would occur after allocating the points.
At the very least, he needed to return to the safety of his Cave House before he could attempt it.
"Uh... Tuck, something seems off around us!"
Just as Tuck was about to open the "attribute panel," Carlos's voice suddenly rose.
"Hmm?"
Tuck, who had turned off the system, looked around him.
At a glance, Tuck's heartstrings tightened abruptly.
Somehow, dense grey fog had filled the entire Cave passage.
Vague shadows could be seen moving within the mist.
Danger was breeding deep within the grey fog.
"Let's go!"
Without any hesitation, Tuck roared lowly and started to flee along the Cave passage, away from the Demon King's Sealing Door.
The change in the grey fog was inseparably related to the Demon King's Sealing Door that had been widened by a hole.
Given the strength of two Level 9 apprentice Transcendents.
Every second they stayed increased the probability of an explosion on the spot.
To those Transcendent Creature Tribes, Transcendents with a Sequence framework were delicious meals.
"Roar... Rumble... Rumble..."
The rolling strange hissing sound emerged from the grey fog in the direction of their escape.
The pace of both men suddenly faltered, and their faces simultaneously fell.
They saw a female human face emerge from the depths of the grey fog in the Cave passage they had come through—a face with clear features, cold and pale.
But what made their hearts tremble was that behind the human face was a thick serpent body armored with white scales.
"It must be at least Level 28 or 29, with the potential to ascend to Level 30 and become a Third Rank Transcendent creature, the 'Human Face Rock Snake Ghost'."
"If there were an adventurer team led by a Second Rank Transcendent here, perhaps, they might have a chance to fight to the death."
"But now... the two of us..."
Tuck glanced at the Human Face Rock Snake Ghost's serpent body, as thick as a water bucket, and the corner of his eyes began to twitch.
"... probably couldn't even fill its belly."
Two Level 9 apprentice Transcendents faced a Level 28 or 29, Second Rank Transcendent creature at its peak.
Straightening their backs and lifting their heads was how they could die with more dignity.
The expected attack didn't come immediately.
The Human Face Rock Snake Ghost cocked its head, its pair of murky eyes continuously sizing up the two creatures in front of it that it had never seen before.
Two men and one snake!
They fell into a brief stalemate.
"Tuck... what should we do?"
Carlos's whisper, not daring to move, came through faintly.
Tuck's eyes narrowed slightly, giving no response.
The system had just obtained a special resource "Talent Fragments."
Under normal circumstances, Tuck wouldn't rashly allocate a large number of points.
After all, no one knew what sort of accident might happen after doing so.
But now, they were cornered by that Second Rank peak Transcendent creature.
Without allocating points, it was certain death.
But with allocating points, there was that tiny sliver of hope.
"System, add them for me!"
[Transcendent Talent]
Precision: 32% (C Grade)
C Grade Transcendent Talent [Precision].
This was the key to Tuck becoming a Wizard.
And now, as all 446 Fragments were poured in.
Transcendent Talent instantly transformed in the blink of an eye.
[Transcendent Talent]
Precision: 478% (S Level)
The range for S Level Transcendent Talent was: 200%—500%.
478%, which was already close to the ceiling for S Level.
Watching [Precision] metamorphose from C Grade to S Grade.
Tuck didn't feel any strangeness.
"No change? That can't be right!"
Just as Tuck was puzzled.
"Tick... Tock... Tick... Tock..."
The sound of a pendulum ticking, soft yet rhythmic, began to sound by Tuck's ear.
"Precision is the perfect grasp of the world's threads and trajectories!"
The Sequence information from the Transcendent Talent, along with the transformation of the Transcendent Talent, quickly emerged in Tuck's mind.
The next moment!
"Buzz..."
The effects of the S Level Transcendent Talent [Precision] rapidly transformed.
And the world in front of Tuck, along with the transformation of [Precision], underwent earth-shattering changes.
