Astral Apostle - Chapter 105
Chapter 105: Clearance Techniques; Broken Promise (1)
Zhou Jing could feel the powerful strength produced when his muscles moved as if he had been reborn.
From a weak ordinary person to a superhuman with endless energy.
“My Physical Fitness has also reached 40 points, the limit of Level 1. They are not inferior to Jason·Wood’s. Such strength definitely reaches the standards of a Level 1 Super.”
Zhou Jing rose excitedly and took off his shirt to look in the mirror.
His originally ordinary figure now had deep lines and protruding muscles. At the same time, he was well-proportioned and slender, full of beauty. One look and one could tell that he contained a powerful explosive force.
Even his slight short-sightedness had disappeared. At this moment, he could see quite clearly without any visual aids.
The density of muscles and bones, the oxygen content of blood, cell activity, organ function, and various hormone levels had been greatly enhanced, reaching the superhuman level.
Zhou Jing could not help but assume a boxing posture. He threw a series of punches at the mirror from the side, his arms moving so fast that they left afterimages.
After testing for a while, he quickly familiarized himself with his current extraordinary physical fitness… After all, he had used it for a long time in the Mutant World, so it was easy for him to get used to it now.
“I’m no longer an ordinary person…”
Zhou Jing sighed inwardly, feeling extremely happy.
He longed to become a Super, and now he had finally reached this step.
His original plan was to complete this goal within two months. He did not expect to successfully clear the Life Objectives of an Apostle in only seven to eight days. It seemed that the plan he had formulated back then was still a little conservative.
However, it was understandable that he had no experience clearing the stage back then.
“I’m only at the difficulty of the second apostle. Perhaps the difficulty of clearing the level won’t be that high. Perhaps the difficulty will also increase as the number of apostles increases in the future… However, as long as I find the right direction, clearing the level doesn’t seem to be that difficult. As long as I don’t encounter any accidents and develop steadily, my clearance rate shouldn’t be bad.”
Zhou Jing sat back on the bed and pondered.
…
He suddenly thought of a problem. The clearance settlement seemed to only appear when the Eternal Apostle was born, and the subsequent deployments of the Eternal Apostle would likely not trigger the clearance settlement again.
An apostle only had one chance to clear the round… In that case, he would have to consider raising his evaluation to obtain a better settlement reward.
After all, any increase in the number of times he could deploy the apostle, the free conversion slots, Attributes rewards, and so on were all very useful.
He had already seen the settlement page. The more Information State particles he collected when clearing the level, the higher the clearance evaluation would be.
His clearing evaluation this time was “Good,” and it seemed not bad. However, he did not forget that when he took revenge for Will, there was a reward of “Increasing the life evaluation of this Apostle.” Therefore, it should have contributed to his final score.
Zhou Jing sank deep in thought.
“So, after reaching the clearance standard, if I don’t trigger the clearance, I can farm more Information State Particles to increase my evaluation. This way, I can obtain a better clearance reward?”
It was not that he could only clear the round after dying. Instead, it should be that after reaching the required standard, he could choose to clear the round every time he returned normally, or he could choose not to trigger the settlement.
The given standard was only the passing line. If he wanted a better settlement reward, he should not choose to complete the stage the moment he achieved the minimum but instead continue traveling around and accumulate more results to increase his evaluation.
“Well, this is a problem of balance. I can’t be too greedy or too negligent. For each specific situation, I’ll have to choose the right time to settle it…”
Zhou Jing engraved this in his heart.
Speaking of which, when the Eternal Apostle’s synchronization rate reached the fourth stage, the upper limit of the benefits would be removed. Instead, it could be used as a channel to provide endless resources.
“I’m not sure how many Astral Apostles can exist at the same time. Originally, a new apostle would be produced only after one died. With an Eternal Apostle, I should be able to create a new apostle… However, I wonder if the apostle slot will automatically increase or I have to use other methods to increase?”
If every additional Eternal Apostle could automatically expand the Astral Apostle slot, clearing the stage quickly would be a very high-priority plan.
If he had many Eternal Apostles, he would have money every day and not lack Astral Points.
Could this be what it means for employees to work hard and their bosses to earn money?
The more, the merrier. There’s still a long way to go…
Zhou Jing could not help but look forward to it.
He opened the interface and took a look. But there was no notification about the Apostle slot, only the cooldown time for the next projection.
[Cooldown till next Astral Projection: 7-10 days]
This time, the cooldown time was longer than before.
“It seems like there will be a longer cooldown period for every birth of an Eternal Apostle.”
Zhou Jing scratched his head and guessed.
Clearing the stage of an Apostle should not affect the cooldown of the subsequent normal Apostles.
Therefore, this kind of long cooldown would probably only appear every time he cleared the level. It should be an exception.
“I won’t be able to travel during this period of time… I might have to wait until the next time I travel before I know what the Astral Apostle slot will be like.”
Zhou Jing shook his head and let go of this matter. Instead, he started to think about his future plans.
He had already obtained supernatural powers, so it shouldn’t be a problem for him to register with the Supernatural Bureau.
With the official identity of a Super, he would have the right to speak on the issue of forced immigration.
His problem was no longer a problem. After registering, it was up to him to decide whether to migrate or not.
And he had to think about what he should do in the future.
In the past, he had always fantasized about becoming a Super, but now that he had really become a Super, countless choices were thrown at his face. His life suddenly had countless bright forks, making him feel a little lost and not know which one to choose.
