"Currently, the War God System is lacking energy. If the Host kills powerful energy creatures or finds large sources of energy for the System to absorb, after the System absorbs the energy, it will grant the Host a lottery Reward, which includes various unique items such as bloodlines." The cold voice of the head echoed again.
"I'll find energy for you, and after you absorb it, you'll give me corresponding lottery Rewards. That sounds reasonable," Rek said after thinking for a moment.
"In order to cultivate the Host into the most powerful war god in the universe, the System will also periodically issue tasks. Based on the Host's completion of these tasks, certain Rewards will be given," the head continued.
"But I'm still a bit weak right now. To help you gain significant energy in the future, War God System, shouldn't you invest in me first? Give me a few Rewards or lottery chances so I can strengthen myself a bit," Rek tried to negotiate with the floating head.
"The Host is parasitized by the War God System and will receive one free initial lottery draw. This draw includes skills, bloodlines, and items of all levels," the voice of the War God System sounded again, and then a large disc appeared in front of Rek.
Looking at this huge disc, Rek saw hundreds of small boxes flashing continuously, each containing various bloodlines, weapons, and techniques.
A slender pointer was spinning rapidly.
Rek pulled a lever next to the spinning wheel, and the pointer began to slow down. Demon God Primary Bloodline, Advanced Angel Bloodline, Vampire Primary Bloodline, Dragon-Slaying Blade, Fission Pistol, Life and Death Great Rejuvenation Pill, Time-Space Cutting Skill—the pointer slowly turned, and Rek felt nervous inside.
This free draw opportunity was a non-level draw for Rewards. Looking at these powerful names, Rek knew this lottery chance was extremely valuable. If he drew an extraordinary bloodline or top-tier equipment, it would help him survive better in the upcoming apocalypse of the Alien Species in a year.
Finally, the pointer stopped on one labeled "Z-level Core Skill: Permanent Clone Technique."
"Congratulations, Host, you have obtained a special core skill: Permanent Clone Technique.
Permanent Clone Technique: At the cost of consuming a large amount of energy, create a clone that looks exactly like the Host. The clone's base stats are 80% of the current body stats of the Host. The Host can allocate consciousness to control the clone or allow it to act independently. The clone possesses basic intelligence and obeys commands from the original Host. The clone can train and strengthen itself; any enhancements or absorbed energy values will automatically transfer 50% back to the original Host. If the clone dies, both the original body and soul of the Host will suffer damage proportional to its loss. For one month afterward, they will be in a weakened state and cannot use this skill again. If the original Host dies, the clone will disappear. Other uses for clones will be unlocked after upgrading them.
Friendly reminder: Cherish your clones as if they were your children; you will receive better rewards!" The cold voice of the War God System resonated in Rek's mind.
"Wow, a clone, that sounds pretty powerful. War God System, quickly tell me how to use this skill. I want to create a clone and give it a try later," Rek said, looking at the introduction of his signature skill, feeling a bit impatient.
"To use the Permanent Clone Technique, the Host needs to consume a large amount of energy. Currently, the Host's body lacks sufficient energy. If you forcefully use it, after creating a clone, the Host will become a skeleton, as all blood and flesh cell energy will be completely consumed," the cold voice of the War God System echoed again.
"That's a trap! War God System, what you're saying is that if I want to use this skill, I first need to find a way to obtain massive energy or find something with huge energy to absorb or kill a creature with great energy before I can use this skill to create a clone!" Rek asked.
"Correct understanding. Now, you should leave the sea of consciousness. This sea of consciousness has just merged; I have already deeply integrated into your cells. Tomorrow noon, you will receive your first small mission. Strive hard to become a War God, young man!" The voice of the War God System sounded, and then Rek's vision went dark.
When Rek opened his eyes again, he found that he had left his sea of consciousness and returned to the forest; dawn was approaching.
Rek looked around and found no traces of blood; Alice had successfully escaped.
Having obtained this somewhat cunning and greedy energy War God System, Rek felt quite good.
He picked up his backpack and carefully placed the liquid bomb back into the soft compartment of his bag.
"Finally got my hands on this mysterious War God System as I wished. Next, it's time to go back for the college entrance examination and then find a way to obtain Genetic Mech," Rek thought as he hurried toward Dawn City. He found an underground weapon shop that had the secret markings of the Rebel Armed Forces. In his previous life as a doctor, he had treated several members of the Rebel Armed Forces and knew some of their secret codes. In the future, humanity's common enemy would be Alien Species; at that time, the Rebel Armed Forces had already allied with the Star Alliance Federation, unlike now when they were still in conflict with the Star Alliance.
Rek entered the weapon trading shop of the Rebel Armed Forces and returned the high-energy liquid bomb at a low price in exchange for some living expenses.
After having a simple bowl of porridge and two eggs at a street market in Dawn City, Rek boarded the first Hover Car heading to Sunshine Welfare Institute.
Upon arriving at the welfare institute, just as he expected, he heard from the director that Alice had left behind a simple note that read: "The outside world is wonderful; I want to go out and see," before leaving the institute. The welfare institute had already reported it to the police.
Rek was relieved that Alice did not mention him in her letter.
Even so, Rek was stopped by the arriving Federal Police. Fortunately, Rek was currently identified as a student preparing for the college entrance examination, having donated a sum of money to an orphanage just yesterday. The Federal Police checked Rek's electronic records, which indicated that he had applied to the Dark Space Star Alliance Military Academy for the upcoming exam.
Neither the police nor the orphanage made things difficult for Rek, and after taking a simple statement, they allowed him to leave.
As Rek stepped out of the orphanage and was about to take a Hover Car, he suddenly heard the voice of the War God System in his mind.
“Ding dong, scanning Host's body and current environment. Host's physical values are too low due to long-term lack of System training. To become a War God, one needs a strong body. To help Host quickly improve physical values, the first War God System side mission is activated.
Mission Name: Run, Young Man!
Mission Description: In nine days, Host will participate in the college entrance examination. To save costs and train his body, Host has chosen to forgo transportation and run back to the examination venue in his original city.
Mission Completion Conditions: Before the exam, no transportation tools may be used; Host must run back to the school in his city on foot and arrive on time for the exam.
Mission Completion Reward: Continuous running will provide physical training for Host, which is the best reward.
Mission Failure Punishment: A youth who cannot even make it to the exam is unworthy of being the Host of the War God System. The System will control Host's body to run forever until Host dies.”
