《Retsuken Word》Chapter 8 Something strange in the darkness.
Advertisement
When I saw my status, I understood many things with just seeing them once, since I have played video games in the last fifteen years, although there are people whose parents have put them in virtual immersion capsule, part of their life, but that is not life, (according to my parents and some teachers) and also only millionaire people or people who work have the option for that equipment.
But the easiest thing was to ask the Omnivaiz what the states that I don't understand mean.
"Why are some parameters in parenthesis? At what point did I consume 50% of my mana? What is biomass? What is drag speed and load capacity? Why do I have durability?” I said.
“The Omnivaiz probably considers each of the Omnihumans to be weapons, which means that I must be repaired from time to time. I hope that is just my imagination. because I do not want to break. In video games only weapons have durability.” I thought.
"Durability is the time you remain converted, it is recovered with mana, therefore it is constantly filled with your mana." Said the Omnivaiz.
Hearing this I was going to sit down, to listen to the other answers, but I noticed that the pool looked different, since around it I began to see aquatic life, which came out of some point. When I located the point, I saw a dark space in the pool as if someone had connected the pool to a dark cave since a can see a deep black hole, where a crystalline figure could be seen on the other side. This crystal was floating with an Octahedron-shaped with a bright gray color.
Where I've seen this before, I crossed my hands in front of my chest while thinking, but i couldn't remember anything. I watched it for a while, It didn't seem dangerous at all, so I decided to go take it so, I could examine it more closely.

"PUFF!" I listen, suddenly I found myself in a dry space, illuminated with some reflectors, however when I looked away, I only saw darkness everywhere.
"Ding! You've won some prizes, for being the first to find a Dimensional crystal!"
In front of my vision a green bill appeared, which read:
"1000 Exp!" A wheel of fortune also appeared, which is a kind of large horizontally placed roulette that a player spins, he can win a prize.
By taking the ticket, I acquired 1000 experience points ...
"Ding ding ding ...! As you climbed to Level 6, 370 pts are missing for the next level. As acquired 1 pts per level to be applied on the parameter you want, 6 more vision points, 5 more speed points, you have acquired claws of steel.” Said the Omnivaiz.
Seeing my hands, the nails had changed to a silver color, seeing this I thought:
"Wow wait but these claws aren't very short!" I said, immediately the nails spread, enough to be called claws and when I stopped thinking about them the nails returned to their normal size.
Then look at the wheel of Fortune that said:
"Gamma Level Power Roulette!" When I point my mind to the word ´Gamma´ the description said:
Existing 6 levels of power: Omega, Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta and Epsilon. Where the Omega is the most powerful one.
The Gamma item or skills level, is as powerful as the Beta Level, but it have small flaws that deprive the wearer of total control of this power or when they are using it, the biggest problem is that their appearance can change permanently when is using it.
The list of Gamma powers in roulette were as follows was:
1 Fusion: It can be fused with living organisms or inorganic matter, with intelligence or not. It absorbs whatever energy it has and adds it to your own.

2 Master Maker: Take its biomass from living organisms or inorganic matter, to create any type of weapon or objects.
3 Absorb: It can absorb characteristics, memories, abilities, consciousness and powers of everything it touches. This power is activated when any part of your naked body is in contact with this object or person.
4 Copy Race: By copying the race of the creature or living being, you acquire the powers, abilities and weaknesses. Acquire creature traits. You just must touch the creature. If the creature is social with its own species, it will not receive attacks from them. You will maintain the humanoid form.
5 Adamantium Claws: You gets Claws and Bone structure like The Wolverine from X men from 1974.
6 X teleportation: You can accurately teleport to any point you determine. With any object or move closer to the position of any person. You can move with other people.
I tried to press the powers to get more details, about each power, but I got the following message, that sounded with a voice from everywhere.
“"Do you want to try your luck?" I figured that the system did not see importance in giving details since in the end I could only get one of them, so I turned the wheel.
"Tic tic tic tic ...!" It sounded. And as if it were a game of chance it began to spin with bright lights that flashed.
The roulette wheel stopped at number 4.
"Ding you have learned the power: Race Change!"
"Ding Ding has acquired a new title: Tama Tama Nashide Resu!" Reading the title, I knew it said:
"Egg without breed!" As I read it, I figured the system thought it would be more epic than writing it in Romaji, than in Spanish.
I thought about my new ability to know the details:
The power is activated by touching the target for 15 seconds.
Advantages: Your level becomes 1, the more time it spends with that race, the more traits you will have of that creature. When you die you lose 70 to 90% of your biomass to turns into an egg, besides losing half of your statistics at birth. When you come back to life, you receive a combination or mix of the races you have owned. The egg teleports to a random location between 500 and 3000 meters, and the environment can influence the race of your egg.
Disadvantages: To acquire the abilities and powers of that race, you must level up. If your stats reach 1, you die permanently.
"Interesting! I can go back to be a human being! just by touching another human being for 15 seconds." I said.
In a blink I was under water again, I saw something strange in the darkness of the crevice of the other dimension, it was getting closer and it had teeth.
“Shit!” I tried to turn around, but I discovered that I could not move, the pool lit up with a yellow light, out of nowhere Heavy Rock music began to play, and a deep voice said:
"Mega Crocodile versus Tom Summer prepare to fight!"
