Chapter 61 simulation
..................
Right now, Lucy stood in front of Max in her real body.
“so they left the mountain, are you sure?” confirmed Max.
Lucy nodded repeatedly.
“alright then, since we're clear, let's start the simulation. Thankfully, they left otherwise. We had to clean them up before starting. “
“Simulator start.”
This time Max wanted to take a perfected skill out.
Either (dragon vine) or (emerald water), so he picked the first mountain to avoid unnecessary twists and turns, since the current Lucy is more than capable of dealing with the human city that would be built next to her.
simulation started.
[ding,] as the simulators started, Lucy lost focus.
[In the 1st year, you found yourself in front of an unfamiliar mountain, and without hesitation you took control of it in a few hours and started your practice.
Your pet master gave two targets to achieve: search this mountain for any treasure and practice either (Emerald water) or (dragon vine) to the peak, after it you can play however you want without supervision, so you were very motivated.]
[In the 2nd year, you started practicing wood aura and mastered it by the end of the year.
At the same time, you meticulously searched the mountain for anything resembling a treasure, ensuring no rock was left unturned.]
[In the 3rd year, you started practicing wind chosen and mastered it by the end of the year.]
[In the 4th year, you started practicing blessed mind and mastered it by the end of the year.]
[In the 5th year, you started training your skill Emerald water, and your progress was fast.]
[in the 6th year, your emerald water started showing some success.
From time to time, you kept searching for the treasure, but the process was slow since you didn't want to miss a single spot.]
[in the 21st year, you mastered the emerald water skill.]
[In the 23rd year, you made a vast lake of emerald water at the base of the mountain.
It made the mountain look even more beautiful. This pleased you.
It fixed your bad mood from having to look everywhere for some unknown treasure yet coming up with no results after so many years.]
[In the 24th year, you started practicing dragon vine, while ignoring emerald water for the time being.]
[on the 30th year, under the effect of your different skills & abilities, the mountain and its surroundings turned into an Ancient Forest with towering trees.
This year you found a mine of blue glowing ores deep within the mountain. You felt that your promised treasure was there and started searching carefully.].
[In the 33rd year, this year you notice a group of people walking past you.
You knew about them from your pet master; he told you to use them to learn the language of this world. After that, you can kill them if you want, so you let them do as they wish for now.
the old man leading the group seems to notice the lake and came closer.
The old man was excited and started exploring with his people.
After some time, they took base up the mountain.]
[In the 36th year, you already found the treasure at the very center of the mineral vein.
It was one of those things called sea pearl.
It had a beautiful pale blue color and seem to hold the ocean inside of it.
For some reason, it reminded you of the dragon eggshell you ate.
You wanted to eat the thing, but remembering your master's instructions, you first had to confirm its origin.]
[In the 37th year, you finally learned the language of this world. In the same year, you made a move and captured most of the mountain inhabitants while the others ended up dying by mistake in the ambush.
Those people had no chance they put up a good fight, but you were stronger and had the element of surprise.
You showed them the pearl and started interrogating them about it.
You noticed that the old man looked stunned when he saw the pearl, but no one spoke. You didn't know what to do.]
[In the 38th year, you ran out of patience; you stopped talking nicely.
Every time they refuse to answer your questions, you killed one of them.
Finally, after killing most of them, the old man broke and started speaking.
According to him, the world used to be much stronger in the past, under the
protection of the four Guardian beasts: the sky whale, the evergreen tree, the
wind spirit, and the blood sage.
These guardians helped all intelligent life forms to grow stronger, granting them powerful martial arts and even sharing their blood and flesh to aid in their development.
However, everything changed when a black hole appeared in the sky, unleashing a dark invader upon this world.
The four Guardians valiantly fought against the invader and eventually killed him, but at a great cost.
Both the evergreen tree and the sky whale perished in the battle, while the wind spirit and the blood sage mysteriously departed through the same dark hole that the invader came from.
He also mentioned that he practiced the sky whale martial arts and, although he had never seen it before, he could recognize that the pearl you possess is a relic inherited from the sky whale’s remains.
You were speechless by the long history of this thing, but nevertheless you sincerely thanked the old man, then killed them all.
After you ate the pearl in your real form, it didn't tast as well as the dragon eggshell.
You waited for something to happen, but nothing happened. You felt that the old man scammed you and you cursed the dead scammer.
Helpless, you went back to the mountain.]
Max scratched his chin, wondering. “this history, it smells like conspiracy no matter how I look at it. And that pearl should be an inheritance item, but sadly, Lucy didn't gain anything from it. Sigh.”
[in the 40th year, you were practicing dragon vine, but you inexplicably had the urge to practice your Emerald water and so you did.
Your skill emerald water reached a new level, and you comprehended the perfected effect (water of life), which allows the water your skill produces to gain a healing capability. Simultaneously, long-term consumption can extend lifespan.]
Max stood up in excitement. “a skill that increases lifespan. The pearl should've helped Lucy achieve this.”
Most people would gladly accept a longer lifespan, and Max is no exception.
[In the 43rd year, since your target is achieved, you started playing with gunpowder. At the same time, you didn't stop practicing dragon vine since you liked the skill.
[In the 57th year, you mastered your skill dragon vine. It helped you move things faster around the mountain.]
[In the 78th year, you already tried every possible way of using gunpowder to explode things.
You were bored and decided to start researching new ways to use it, even trying new mixtures, although most of the time it ends up in a disaster, but as a mountain it didn't cause you much harm.]
Max :-_-
[in the 83rd year, this year a pack of powerful gray wolves were attracted to the Emerald lake, but you ignored them to pursue your experiments and research.]
Max was dumbfounded. “this airhead doing research? What kind of messed up movie did I let her watch? “
[in the 85th year, because of your actions, the wildlife on the mountain was almost extinct, and your research was going nowhere. ]
[in the 86th year, humans started appearing one after another, cutting trees, building huts.
They seem to realize the danger of a self exploding mountain, and kept their distance, but they didn’t leave].
[in the 89th year, a small city is already placed next to you.
From the words of the wood cutters down at the base of the mountain and your observations, there seems to be a strong plague spread among the humans.
You saw people dying for no reason; you saw a man with so much muscle unable to lift his pick axe.
This city was dying on its own, so you just ignored it. ]
Max couldn't help but glance at cold blood next to him. He expected something like this to happen.
Cold blood used the Vitality and the blood of countless people to be forged.
if Max didn't take it out of that world, after the time loop reset nothing will happen, and that Vitality would be returned to the owners, however now that cold blood is here, the result is the current scene inside the simulation world.
Weak people died, while normal people became sick. As for the strong, they just got weaker, it seems.
“although I didn't expect a plague, maybe it spread because of the weak immune system then aggravated after infecting more people, well it doesn't matter much.”
Max didn't care about the permanent effect of this blood forging leaves on different worlds, or the countless dead. In fact, he plans to get the method later, maybe have someone modify it for him to not only forge a hammer but other equipment.
This can most probably can turn the simulator into an endless source of equipments
[In the 95th year, you tried to build a self propelled construction made of stone and metal.
But you failed and ended up destroying the city by mistake.]
Max was speechless. “isn't this rocket science? This fool is actually trying to build a rocket out of stones.”
Max didn't know what to say, but his first idea was to teach her how to make rocket fuel.
oxygen plus hydrogen in liquid form.
With her innate ability, it is possible to force those two elements into their liquid form.
“isn't that dangerous?, hmmm, but it's not like I will on the receiving end, so whatever, let's teach her later.”
Max was kind of excited about the idea and ignored all danger. Anyway, it’s his enemies who will receive the backlash and maybe the poor people of the simulation worlds, but so what?
[In the 97th year, some strange humans in blood-red costumes joined the city or what's left of it.
But you didn't care and started mixing up new recipes after you found out that the ore from the mineral vein deep in the mountain is somewhat explosive.]
[In the 133rd year, this year you found a new, much stronger formula for liquid gunpowder.
In your excitement, you let some of it touch the mineral vein; it triggered a chemical chain reaction, and the mountain exploded.]
Max was stunned, not by the fact that Lucy killed herself. That's normal.
What made him stunned is the fact that her research actually had results.
[you died]
