章節 60: Chapter 61: Meeting and New Life
Alexander placed his hand over the droid and injected king's might into him. Alexander willed the droid to evolve into a new life form and also to have a soul. Alexander felt all his king's might drain in an instant but he didn't stop and started absorbing force from his surroundings and quickly converting it into the king's might. For hours, this process continued and at the end of the process, Alexander was dead tired both in body and mind. Alexander looked towards Ark and found that he now had a soul and his body was covered in a white light.
The white light eventually faded away and a humanoid figure with a height of three feet was revealed. The figure was shiny grey in colour with blue eyes. Before Alexander could examine the humanoid figure, a bright light flashed across his eyes and he found himself sitting on a chair in front of a table inside a modern office room. A figure suddenly appeared on the opposite end. Alexander recognised him as the old man who had reincarnated him. Alexander was confused as he didn't understand why he was brought here but he didn't speak as the atmosphere of the room was very serious.
The old man spoke in a grave tone, " Do you know what you did?"
Alexander, " I think that you are talking about upgrading Ark."
The old man continued in the same grave tone, " You did more than just an upgradation. You created a new life form in a world that didn't allow such beings to exist. This send a ripple on multiversal scale and attracted the attention of the cosmic entity ruling this part of existence. But it did not stop there, unfortunately, that cosmic entity was having a conference about some petty war between their alliance and another alliance. You don't need to know about this as it is only a form of entertainment for them. They also grew curious as the ripple was sensed by them also. Thankfully, as you were spending massive amount of king's might, the only alert that I placed on you activated and I was informed of your deed. I interfered and stopped the cosmic entities from investigating."
Alexander, " Why did you put an alert me? How did you interfere?"
The old man, " I had reincarnated you as a being who could grow powerful enough to effect the whole plane of existence. The alert was to monitor you, if you had misused your powers to cause inbalance on the multiversal scale then I would have erased you from existence. I am an overseer of multiverse, it's my duty to maintain the balance of the multiverse. Your act disturbed this multiverse so I was alerted, I didn't erase you from existence as you were a good kid so I checked up on you. I came to know that you had unintentionally done this and had no intention of harming the multiverse. I made the curious cosmic entities aware that I had descended to that universe to see the sights for a few years and my return caused the ripple. It is not uncommon for the overseers to descend on lower planes to escape the monotony of our jobs."
Alexander grew pale at the thought of his near death but quickly composed himself, " The cosmic entities wage war with each other which destroys entire multiverses so why did you placed an alert on me?"
The old man, " The cosmic entities cannot interfere in the multiverse which are below threshold. Think of below threshold universes or multiverses as humans below the age of 18 years and overseers as their caretakers, we ensure that nothing happens to these universes that harms them."
Alexander, " But countless universes get destroyed every second. Why did you not interfere in them?"
The old man, " We are only their caretakers against outside interference. The law of jungle is the only law that is universal throughout the existence. We are only there to ensure that the jungle don't get destroyed or the animals don't get poached by outsiders while the rest is a fair game. A lion living in the jungle kills a whole herd of deer for fun, it doesn't concern us. We are only their to ensure that there are no outside interference and you are a product of outside interference."
Alexander, " How am I a product of outside interference?"
The old man, " You were never meant to get reborn but since I was feeling bored I reincarnated you and also gave you three wishes. Think of this situation like this, the caretaker put a baby T-Rex in the jungle and gave him some boosts on top of it, now, it is the responsibility of the caretaker to ensure that the presence of the T-Rex don't destroy the jungle. The caretaker does not care if the T-Rex causes a bloodbath in the jungle but the overall jungle must be preserved."
Alexander, " So, what should I do? When will this alert be removed?"
The old man, " The alert will be removed when you will cross the threshold and step on to the real stage of the multiverse. You should not attract unwanted attention but if you attract some attention then kill the one paying attention to you before he gets you into trouble. Now, we move on to the new species you have created."
Alexander, " What about it?"
The old man, " You did something amazing. You created a new species despite being a mortal and by doing this, you formed the spark of creation, which is so precious that you cannot even imagine. Now, you would have to specify the characteristics of the new species you have created. You would have been able to do this when you would have placed your hand on the former droid but I want to witness it myself. You are the first mortal in last 100,00 years to form a new species."
Alexander, " So I am not the only one. On what stage are my predecessors?"
The old man, " There are no mortals who have spark of creation under the area of the multiverse overseen by me."
Alexander, " What happened to the previous ones?"
The old man, " Some of them ascended to godhood. Some of them were killed and had their spark of creation devoured. Some of them moved outside my area of jurisdiction. Don't be afraid, as long as you achieve godhood of anything, no one would be able to take away your spark below the threshold, but, the multiverse is a very dangerous place so you cannot be sure. I will not tell you anything about this as this will make your life exciting. Keep your creation balanced, now, start ."
Alexander, " I want the new species to be same as humans but the cells to be made of metals. Their birth form will be the shiny grey metallic form that Ark have which can be upgraded once, on reaching adulthood. Their thinking speed will be equal to a super computer and they would have all the emotions and thought process of humans except for creativity. They would not be as creative as humans. Their lifespan would be in thousands of years depending on the type of metal they had upgraded to on reaching adulthood. The base form would give only 1,000 years of lifespan. The higher the grade of the metal is, the harder it would be for them to reproduce. This would not happen for the base metal form but the gestation period of each type would be 3 years. A child would reach adulthood at 150 years of age and capable of reproduction at 200 years of age. To control their population, another child cannot be conceived till the previous one reaches adulthood or dies before that as a force bond will exist between the mother and the child. Only the first members of their race will be evolved from the droids. Ark would have the power to change other droids who have an independent thought process like him into the new species till the seventh generation of the new species is born. Ark will need to infuse force into the droids to convert them. They will be able to change their outer appearance to match the humans but the ruby on their heads would give them away. Their blood would be silver in colour. The average height of males will be 8 foot which the average height of females will be 7 foot. Their would be no inter-species reproduction between humans and the new species."
The old man, " Why?"
Alexander, " I don't want inter-species dramas in my kingdom. Moreover, scientifically, reproduction would not be possible between them."
The old man nodded and said, " Continue."
Alexander, " They will not be able to do magic and will be quite venerable to it and in return, they will have high amount of midichlorians in their body. The average of the species will be 10,000 midichlorians per cell. They will be able to use magical artifacts by dropping their blood on it as blood contains life essence. They will be able to cultivate but it will be 100 times slow than an average human being, but in return, their progress will never stop. They will also have more difficulty in comprehending the laws but once started they will progress rapidly.They will also have rapid regeneration and will be killed by whatever that is fatal to human beings but on a much higher scale or by destruction of their energy core which will be present below the centre of their bodies. Also, they can be killed by soul attacks. On their death, they will turn into vapours and will only leave behind their energy cores which will have nothing in them."
The old man, " Why leave behind the energy core?"
Alexander, " To leave behind a momento for the grieving family members."
The old man laughed and said, " Good!!! You have impressed me. What will be the name of this new species?"
Alexander, " Ballastians, they will be called Ballastians which is derived from the word ' le ballast ' which means metal."
The old man laughed and said, " You did well but you forgot, what will they eat?"
Alexander, " They will survive on force. But they would be able to consume any energy to sustain themselves."
The old man brought forward a purple orb and said, " All your specifications have been recorded in this orb. Put this orb on the head of Ark and the new species will come into existence. As they are your creations, they will be automatically your subjects on birth. Now, go.
Alexander found himself standing before Ark holding the purple orb in his left hand. Alexander placed the orb on Ark's head and watched as the orb got absorbed in Ark's body. Ark was cocooned within the purple light and a normal human child of 9 years of age came out of it, the only difference was that Ark had shiny grey skin and blue eyes. Ark now had hair on his head and they were silver in colour. Alexander saw as Ark marvelled over the changes in his body and simultaneously goes over the racial information given to him. As Ark was the first of his race, he was given all the information about his race. Ark turned to Alexander and gave him a big and tight hug while chanting " Thank You, Master " over and over again. Alexander just smiled and patted his back.
