Multi-Gene

Chapter 877 Death!

...

"My strength usage is so weak?" In that particular altar amidst the tens of thousands of golden altars on the black mountain range, David tried over and over. He tried for a total of tens of thousands of times. Even after using one entire day, his best score was still only 34.

He couldn't blame anybody.

Firstly it had been so many years he emphasized in his own physical strength. Without using the werewolf body or the vampire body.

Even though the Vampire body was proficient in close combat, it would need to extract his blood core first. It didn't rely on muscles or bones to unleash its strength, it didn't even have a strength per se, hence it couldn't train in this aspect.

As for the Werewolf gene body, it was a blood and flesh life form, and it did emphasize on strength exertion!

"How shameful, I actually got 0 points." David thought. "When I return, I have to find a battle technique for the Werewolf gene body that emphasizes on strength exertion. Strength exertion is one of the requirements to become Eternal, I cannot overlook it."

"Hm, so what if I can't get any points from the Eternal altar, I'll head to fantasy ocean next."

"My consciousness and willpower is what I'm the most confident in."

"Fantasy ocean, I have to go deeper and get more points." David immediately headed towards fantasy ocean.

Suddenly…

"Hm, mail?"

David pointed in mid air and a screen appeared, and on it was a mail. "It's from the virtual Universe Corp?"

Di!

David opened the mail and as he read, his entire face went completely pale.

"That's not possible, it's impossible." David couldn't help but shake his head.

"How can this be?"

"How can this be?" David looked at the contents of the mail and shook his head. "Tyrion... Tyrion is dead?"

This was a mail that had been sent to all members of the absolute beginning region. As there were very few members, with a total of 1,100 of them, they were all considered absolute geniuses amongst the universe countries. Over 10,000 years, the absolute beginning area had only absorbed less than 20 people. Every one of them were considered valuable.

Everytime one fell, they would send a reminder to inform all the members.

"Tyrion…" David's body trembled and his eyes were filled with shock.

Right.

During yesterdays public lesson, without him noticing Tyrion's consciousness had left the virtual universe network. Even his own call request didn't go through. Back then he still thought Tyrion had a sudden inspiration or was looking for treasure etc. But from the looks of it now, Tyrion may have met with misfortune back then.

"This Big brother Tyrion was a huge figure sent by the virtual Universe Corp to control a large territory. How did he just die? Even if he left the safety net of the virtual Universe Corp, meeting many events outside, he was still after all a core member of the company. How could he just get killed like that?" David couldn't believe it.

Scenes appeared and flashed in his mind.

"You again? I noticed you during the last two classes. What a coincidence." An intrepid youth dressed in scaled armor walked over and laughed as he shouted.

"What a coincidence." David laughed as well. "I'm David."

"I'm Tyrion."

...

"Let me tell you, when the virtual Universe Corp sends their Galaxy lords out, they'll put them in their own home Universe Sector. When I return this time…I'll control a large territory. The feeling will definitely be different. My clansman's position too have since risen because of this. No one dares to ever bully my Copper Flame clan anymore." Tyrion was proud.

"Hm, if there's a strong warrior in the clan, the others will rise in status. However if we fall, their status will fall greatly too." Tyrion's eyes stared. "However, I will definitely work hard to become Eternal, definitely!"

"We'll work hard together." David's eyes too were filled with anticipation and fighting mental.

...

"David, you are currently still at the Cosmos level. You can safely stay under the protection of the virtual Universe Corp to train and take missions, everything within a controlled area. When you reach mid level Galaxy lord and get placed in a Universe Sector, controlling a large territory, that's when your true grueling training will begin. That's when it will truly become dangerous. Especially at Celestial level, where you are not even allowed to bring your guard team, you'll go through life or death training then."

...

Different scenes appeared in David's mind.

He hadn't known Tyrion for too long, but the two of them did have an affinity, maybe its because of their many similarities.

"The path to Eternal is extremely tough…"David muttered, looking at the screen before him.

On it the text read.

"To all absolute beginning members in Chaos Point Mountain:

Our virtual universe just confirmed that Tyrion, an absolute beginning member, one that had been exceptional since the genius battle has…fallen!

This is a very heartbreaking news.

The absolute beginning region absorbs members through the genius battle and the absolute warriors battle. Every 10,000 years, we absorb less than 20 people. However, as time flows, every hundred to thousand years, someone will fall. One after another, the geniuses will continue to fall. Eventually, extremely few members will pass the road to become an Eternal.

95%!

A terrifying number!

This is the mortality rate of our absolute beginning region. 95% of the members from the absolute beginning region will fall!

Yes!

Right now, there were 1137 members living in the region. About 95% of them will fall along the way to becoming Eternal, and only 5% will reach the end and become Eternal!

I hope that all living members will be extra careful. Listening to classes? Training? Missions? Placed in their own universe countries? Celestial missions? Our virtual universe has given you all very huge liberties and power. The path is the one thing that you choose for yourself. The danger level too will be decided by you, and you'll bear the consequence for everything!

I only hope that in the future, you all don't regret the decisions you made in the face of death!

...

virtual Universe Corp"

One mail, all the living 1137 absolute beginning members received it. The entire region seemed to have a heavy aura hanging over it.

...

Absolute beginning region, Dragon prince Wuka's villa, living room.

David, Wain, Trelles, Zander, Wuka, Arturo, Benth, Lancelot. The absolute beginning members from the latest genius battle sat together unlike ever before. They usually formed their own little cliques, like David, Wain and Wuka.

Zander, Lancelot were close, Trelles, Arturo and Benth were close.

However at this time…

The 8 of them sat around the living room in silence.

"95%, 95% of us will fall." Lancelot, a devilishly handsome youth muttered. "The moment I think about the many geniuses falling and imagining the currently bustling absolute beginning region becoming a cemetery, I feel shock and fear. I can't help but feel a chill."

Silence.
