Chapter 508 - Rest



Chapter 508: Rest

A moment later, Charles and Runeth found themselves standing in front of a 3-meter radius glass sphere and looked around in curiosity. They were currently standing in an enclosed room, and almost all the walls, ceiling, and floors were engraved in mysterious characters and paintings.

"Is this the Core Room?" Charles observed the surroundings and soon shifted his gaze towards the glass sphere, around a 3-meter radius in size.

No, he focused on the multiple head-sized crystals hovering inside the glass sphere.

At that moment, a few strange tubes were attached to the glass sphere's top and appeared to be drawing energy from all those crystals constantly.

It looked more like an experimental test sphere than some Core of the pocket dimension.

Charles also noticed that all of the crystals seemed to have possessed a tremendous amount of energy inside.

'Are they elemental crystals? But aren't they too big? Fairy Crystals? Or Divine Crystals?'

While he was in muse, Runeth walked towards the glass sphere and muttered.

"Time, Space, Nature, Water, Wind, Earth, Fire, and Light... There are a total of eight Divine Elemental Crystals, huh. This sphere is the core of this pocket dimension, lad. Even touching this sphere would cause instant retaliation from the Pocket Dimension's Will."

Saying so, he extended his right hand and tried to touch it. But a moment later, a mysterious force appeared out of nowhere and created an invisible wall in front of him.

Simultaneously, a foggy humanoid shape materialized in front of them.

"This is the pocket Dimension's Will. But this is in an infant form."

While explaining, Runeth took out a fist-sized crystalline Time-Elemental Crystal from his space ring, passed it to Charles, and added.

"Charles, order the Pocket Dimension's Will to replace the Divine crystal with this Fairy One. This crystal should be more than enough for a millennium or two to maintain the stability of the pocket Dimension."

Although Charles didn't understand his motive, he quietly nodded and did as Runeth told him.

To his surprise, the Pocket Dimension's Will didn't show any hesitation and replaced the crystal within three seconds.

"This is for speeding up the System Cube's aging process. I thought of using the 'Fairy Crystal' to finish the process, but the presence of Pocket Dimension in your hand changed everything." Runeth gave him a short explanation.

"You want to accelerate the time around the System Cube using this Time Crystal?"

"Yes, I'm planning on accelerating it 10,000 times faster than normal. Using a Fairy Crystal, we can only increase the System Cube's age up to 3,000 years. But with this 'Divine Crystal,' we can increase the System Cube's age up to 30,000 years to 50,000 years!"

Excitement appeared in his tone.

Meanwhile, Charles noticed the craziness in his eyes and asked.

"You want to upgrade it to S or SS-level intellectual artifact, right?"

"No. I want to upgrade it to a Z-Series intellectual artifact." Runeth paused for a moment and soon chuckled.

"But that's more like an impossible task even with the Miracle skill. Let's see if we can make something imaginative."

"Imaginative, huh. I wonder if we could create an upgraded artificial intelligence-like system artifact? The one that could be capable of creating missions to save the user from any dangerous situations..." His voice trailed off as he ended the sentence.

On the other hand, Runeth stored the 'Divine Rank' Time-Elemental Crystal into his space ring and spoke.

"It's not an impossible thing, lad. But to achieve that, we need pure wisdom essence. You see, mission-like things have some connection with Wisdom Tree and Wisdom Link. Wisdom Link is a mysterious web that connects all planes like the Eternal River of Life. Even I heard about these things only after I became a universal Explorer. This Wisdom Link is also the reason for the birth of any intelligent creature in any plane."

"Wisdom Essence?" Charles suddenly thought of the 'Eye of Insight' stone and hurriedly took it out from his space ring.

"What about this stone? I got it from this pocket dimension."

Meanwhile, Runeth took it from Charles's hand, analyzed it carefully, and soon widened his eyes.

"It seems a powerful Druid used 'Nature' essence to seal the 'Insight' power from leaking outside. Although I'm not sure whether this stone could create your imaginative System artifact, it could at least increase the artifact's intelligence to a considerable level." He said.

Meanwhile, Charles was surprised by Runeth's words and nodded in understanding.

After that, both stayed in the core room, talked more about the System Upgrade for the next few hours, and finally left the Pocket Dimension.

Once they returned to the underground hall, Runeth took a deep breath and spoke.

"You should go and take some rest in the Tower, lad. Later, you can go and check out the Tower Core's new functions and start constructing the spell models."

Before Charles could utter a word, he sat in front of the System Cube and started writing runal characters in the air before sending them into the half-dismantled Red Cube.

On the other hand, Charles heaved a heavy sigh and ordered.

"Send me to 24th Level, Zera."

The next instant, he turned blurry for a moment, disappeared from there, and reappeared in a luxurious bedroom hall.

He saw a beautiful room with several crystal scintillators on the floor.

The walls were decorated with red flowers, red dragons paintings, and red birds paintings. Moreover, Charles even saw some other red-colored items were attached to the walls using hooks.

The windows were covered in red curtains, and the floor was covered in red carpet.

"Old man sure loves red color," Charles commented casually and looked around.

There was a huge 'Bay' window on the eastern side of the hall, and some furniture that could be considered luxurious appeared all over the room.

But the most outstanding feature of the room was the huge bed with crystal coverings that looked like a single sheet of ice.

Charles toured the large hall-like room for a while and moved towards the red-painted wardrobe placed next to the luxurious bed.

Soon, he arrived in front of it, opened it with both hands, and took out a nightgown from it.

He then locked the wardrobe and started walking towards the opposite side.

He soon saw the bathroom and stopped at a white bathroom door. In front of the door, there was a white towel hung up on a golden hook. He picked up the towel, moved his hand towards the door know and opened the door before walking inside.

Inside, he saw a large bathtub made of clear crystal filled with the hottest water. The bathtub's handle and the whole edge were crystal-covered and appeared exquisite. For a moment, he thought that he had returned to modern earth.

Charles then took out his hand and pulled the top edge of the bathtub. He also took out the towel and held it by his waist. Then, he turned to the side, took some bath supplies from the white cabinet, and took a deep bath after a long time.

Before leaving the bathroom, he washed his face and hair with the boiling hot water in the bathtub.

After that, he changed his clothes and moved towards the luxurious bed.

Before long, he arrived before the luxurious bed, lay on it, and started sleeping soundlessly.
