Rise Of The Worm Sovereign Chapter 8

Lin Wu had never expected for the second data node to have been from the human corpse. He could not imagine how it became a data node, though. Like for the communication jade slip, he knew that it had a data storage function, but how would it work for a human.
"Wait, don't tell me this system can extract memories. If it really can, then it's terrifying." Lin Wu muttered to himself.
Lin Wu even did multiple takes to confirm that the data node was indeed the human corpse itself, and not some other item on its body. After being done with this and having steeled his mind, he started reading the rest of the data.
—————————————————————————————————
TARGET: Feng Luo (Data node extracted)
INFO: Feng Luo is a common rogue cultivator from Deer Wood city. He came to the Millennium Forest for hunting spirit beasts and died while hunting a Rock trampler Boar.
NOTIFICATION: Data node from the target has been assimilated in the data banks. The host can ask the system questions and receive the most optimum answerer possible for that time period.
—————————————————————————————————
'Huh? So now it allows me to ask questions? Did it take all the memories and information from this man's brain and use it to upgrade itself? That's rather impressive. So this stupid system can become a not so stupid system.' Lin Wu thought.
'Now then, how do I do this? Do I just ask it normally or is there a specific command?' Lin Wu wondered.
"System, what is the Deer Wood city?" Lin Wu questioned.
He was expecting to fail on his first try, but in another surprise to him the command he used seemed to be right.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
ANSWER: Deer Wood city is located twenty kilometers to the south of the host's current location. It is one of the five main cities of the Ling Kingdom and comes under the authority of the Lu clan. It is a large city and has a population of six million people. It has three aristocratic clans living in it, of which the Lu clan holds the administrative authority. Approximately Thirty percent of its population is of cultivators while the rest are commoners.

Lin Wu read the answer provided by the system and only felt more questions arising in his head. He wanted to ask them, but before that, he wanted to know if there was a cost to using the functions of the system. He had read plenty of novels in his past life and knew of scheming and scummy systems that would hide the information from its users.
"System, is there a limit to using the functions?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
ANSWER: Every function has a different operational cost. The cost of using the 'Scanner' function is 5 units of system energy. Information obtained by the 'scanner' function is available forever after its use, for no extra cost after the initial cost. The Map function uses 20 units of energy upon every update.
—————————————————————————————————
~Sign~
Lin Wu sighed with relief after seeing the system's answer.
'At least it's not excessive, even though it has a one time cost. Though I'm still a little confused about the cost for the map function.' Lin Wu thought.
'Though if I wanna use them, I first gotta know how to get the energy.' Lin Wu thought.
"System, how do I recharge the energy storages?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
ANSWER: Host can obtain the different types of energies by cultivating, consuming resources, and killing creatures. Depending on the method used, the quantity of energy would vary.
—————————————————————————————————
"Okay, that was rather straightforward. I should have expected this." Lin Wu spoke to himself.
Lin Wu now wanted to know the most important thing on which his life was hanging. He wanted to ask how he could reach the Qi refining realm. He had seen the data in the window and knew that he needed Vital energy.
"System, how do I use vital energy to raise my cultivation?" Lin Wu asked.

~DING~
—————————————————————————————————
ANSWER: After the host consumes resources or kills creatures, the vital energy from that creature would be stored in the vital energy storage. This energy can then be added to the host's body to increase its strength. The host can also transfer this energy to the system energy storage, but if this is done the energy cannot be returned.
—————���———————————————————————————
'So, I need to hunt more beasts now, or perhaps even some humans. Though I doubt it will be easy considering my current strength. That tiny mouse was rather incomparable to the other beasts that I may face, I need to plan properly.' Lin Wu thought.
"System, what are the cultivation levels? I mean, which stage do I need to reach in order to become a Qi refining realm cultivator?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
—————————————————————————————————
ANSWER: The system currently has data on four cultivation realms, they are-
1. Body Tempering realm [13 stages]
2. Qi Refining Realm [4 stages]
3. Core Condensation Realm [4 stages]
4. Nascent Soul Realm [4 stages]
The detailed data on realms above the Qi Refining realm is currently not available. Please obtain more data nodes to expand data banks.
The Host needs to reach the eighth stage of the Body tempering realm at the very minimum in order to enter the Qi refining realm.
—————————————————————————————————
'Huh? So I don't need to reach the thirteenth stage to upgrade to the Qi refining realm, just the eighth stage is enough. But why is this so?' Lin Wu wondered.
"System, why is the requirement for entering the Qi refining realm as such. Shouldn't it need for one to reach the thirteenth stage of the Body Tempering Realm?" Lin Wu questioned.
~Ding~
ERROR: Insufficient data, please upgrade data banks.
"Damn it, you stupid system, just when I was thinking you were getting good." Lin Wu cursed.
~Sigh~
"Anyway, I have to make a plan on how to approach this. I'll should start by hunting small beasts and making traps. I'm a worm, so I should take advantage of it and dig some holes." Lin Wu decided.
"System, can you show nearby beasts on the map?" Lin Wu asked.
~Ding~
—--———————————————————————————————
NOTIFICATION: Marking all nearby beasts within a radius of ten kilometers.
MARKING COMPLETE: Beasts found= 258

Beneath No Sky: Chronicles of the Atmospheric Sector
After bringing themselves back from the brink of annihilation, humanity's future seemed bleak. However, it's remnants, throwing aside the old order and donning a new mantle of progress aimed to rise above their ancient disputes and go forward as one. Once the Earth reached it's natural limit, and colonies around Terra and Luna had shown promising results, humanity finally decided to make the move to the stars. Believing this to be the start of a new age, they eagerly poured across the solar system and further beyond, greeting what space had to offer with hope and optimism. It was misplaced, however, for humanity's traditional quarrels soon resurfaced and engulfed a now interplanetary empire of many races.As the Earth Empire burned and an intense depression overtook the once optimistic people, some held out hope. They theorized that their problems were born of an inherent sense of home and, in order to rid humanity, now comprising of the Terrans as well as all the other known species of the galaxy, of this burden, decided to move far away from civilized space, into uncharted depths, to start anew. Some 200 years have passed since then, and those hopeful ones have finally found a place to settle on. Firmly planting their flag in paradise, they called this untouched land "Eden" and declared the beginning of a true new age, the age of After Eden.Trouble, however, seemed to still be hounding them, as barely three years after its founding, Eden finds itself at war with a seemingly uncommunicative and uncompromising enemy that far outclasses the odd pirates they were used to facing. A new era of peace, marked by an immediate conflict. Time will tell if Eden, the Grand Experiment, truly is as great as it's supposed to be. ---------------------------------------- This is a sci-fi, character driven, military space drama. Multiple POV protagonists and lots of unnecessary detail. Somewhat psychological. My first work on this website.
