Chapter 360: Breakthrough. Tiana and Avelia.
" What about Reikent? I don't know about his strength, but since he custom ordered a 3-star weapon, then he should be able to use one of these. "
Athan asked as he looked at the drunk Reikent with others on the other side.
" Maybe? He is also at the peak or near the peak of the Orderic Catastrophe. Also, That 3-star weapon was probably his side weapon since he uses dual blades. He also has a weapon order technique of his own about Dual blades. "
At this time, Shiromi gave a suggestion, " Anyway, Why don't you ask Mr. Reikent if he wants a weapon? If not, then..."
Pausing a bit, Shiromi curved her lip upward in a tiny grin, " I suggest that you sell these weapons and their order techniques at the testing grounds of Chaos Monolith Hills or any upcoming grand auctions. These things should be hot commodities now due to the Chaos Monolith Hill's recruitment event. You will earn a lot of money through them. "
" Yep. People will take anything that can increase their strength before the final test so they can have a better chance at passing and joining the Chaos Monolith Hills. "
Athan nodded as he agreed with them.
...
The next day, Athan asked Reikent if he wanted any weapon, but Reikent smiled and shook his head, " Nope. My main weapon already is a high-grade 4-star weapon, and I am also close to elevating to Zen order soon. Also, You might have heard that if you managed to pass and enter the Chaos Monolith Hills, The organization behind you will get a grand reward, right? "
Athan nodded as the Envoy mentioned this.
"Those grand rewards will be enough to make us the number one power in this region. So, the only thing the organization expects from you is to pass, which will benefit us greatly. 4-star or 5-star weapons are nothing compared to that. "
" I see..." Athan nodded his head in understanding.
After talking for a bit, Reikent left to do his own things.
Yone also disappeared somewhere while other members of the Hidden dragon troupe were inside their own houses.
Athan also returned to his house near the riverbank before sitting down on the mattress.
He took out a pill that Shiromi gave him and popped it into his mouth.
A violent, dark blue-colored energy gushed inside his body before Athan directed it towards his void region.
After that, He directed that energy towards his essence core of Aegis Starwood order ken.
As if that violent energy found its target, It infused inside the core as Athan felt his power increase slowly.
The fourth leaf of clover started to turn vivid, and more order force started to produce inside his order base.
After an hour, The essence core saturated after the energy of the pill entered inside it. The fourth petal of clover also turned vivid completely.
Athan calmly waited as the essence core started shining.
After a while, The essence core started to crack and broke apart into countless glittering emerald and silver-colored pieces and gathered to become an order symbol.
This symbol had an eccentric silver pattern on a green background surface. The green base created an image of a tree trunk. The silver patterns were on top of this tree trunk, but they didn't have a particular shape.
But just like previously, He brought this symbol towards his Chaos Matrix before taking out some of the milky white aurae.
He had already comprehended and grasped the order of Aegis Starwood Chaotic power. With that understanding, he turned the milky white aura into an emerald crystal with a silver pattern.
' Alright, The catalyst is finished. '
He then controlled the symbol and pushed it towards the crystal. The symbol entered inside the crystal he created and merged with it.
Aegis Starwood chaotic power's crystal, Completed. No one in the Chaosverse would have thought that something like this was possible.
After that, Athan connected this Aegis Starwood chaotic power's crystal to his Chaos Matrix.
After taking a deep breath, He activated the Chaos matrix as the Aegis Starwood's power appeared at one side of the pyramid. This started the one-time process of the fundamental transformation of his body.
All of his cells started to transform into pure Aegis Starwood chaotic power.
Athan calmly waited while bearing the pain that did not pain to him anymore.
After this one-time transformation is over, He will be able to transform his body into Chaotic Body-Aegis Starwood.
Since he could transform his body into literally chaotic powers using his chaos matrix and control that chaotic power better and more powerfully, He decided to name it as Chaotic Body.
After an hour, The transformation was over.
Since the transformation process was over, He was still in his Chaotic Body-Aegis Starwood's form.
Although he already knew about the primary properties and power of the Aegis Starwood chaotic power since he had comprehended and grasped its entire order, He still did various experiments while his order base was in the process of breakthrough to Tier-3 order base.
There are four primary properties of Aegis Starwood.
First, This emerald-silver power is Solid. Very solid and tough. In his Chaotic body form, His body will become extremely tough and hard to damage. Naturally, If he gives the nature of Aegis Starwood to his defensive order techniques, They will also get a boost in defense and solidness.
Second, Self-Recovery: Athan can recover from damage and injuries as long as he has enough chaos force. ( Now he can consume chaos force into Aegis Starwood since he got the Essence chaos trait of it. )
[ A/N: I have mentioned this previously, but I'll tell again. Before acquiring the chaos trait, They can only transform chaos essence into that chaotic power that is useless in battle. But...The chaos traits allow one to change their Chaos force into the said chaotic power. After all, Chaos force gets stronger as people progress, so these chaos traits would always be helpful in many situations and also the main source of battle power for everyone as they keep getting stronger.
While using order techniques, They can give it the nature of chaotic power using chaos force ( instead of measly chaos essence) to make it stronger.? ]
The third property, Healing: This is different than self-recovery. Self-recovery means, He can only self-recover something that is related to Aegis Starwood. For instance, If he had a hexagonal shield-looking defensive order technique and gave it the nature of Aegis Starwood, then If there are any holes or cracks in this shield, It will self-recover to a specific limit even if he doesn't consume any chaos force.
But...Healing means that He can also heal others with this. Normally, People with this power would heal themselves too. But in Athan's case, Since he can transform his body into Aegis Starwood, self-recover also applies to him. So with healing, self-recovery of Aegis Starwood, and His natural-body healing factor, Athan is unkillable as long as he doesn't die in one shot or runs out of chaos and order force.
The fourth property, Tight-structured: The Aegis Starwood chaotic power, is more tightly structured internally. Even if its outer part is broken, It's a mass of solid structure that is hard to break internally. That's why powers with penetration or similar attacks are not good against Aegis Starwood chaotic power. Naturally, Once Athan transforms his body, His internal structure also becomes tougher and solid, and it will be hard to injure him severely.
...
After Athan finished his breakthrough to the Tier-3 order base, He saw the four-leaf clover broke apart and turned into a blue force as it entered inside his Chaos Grinder before upgrading it.
Now, The chaos force he produces will be even more powerful.
After that, He looked inside his order base and saw an outline of another four-leaf clover.
He sensed that the new producing order force inside didn't change much, and it didn't become more powerful like what happened when he broke through to the Tier-2 order base.
When he broke through to Tier-2 order base, His order force had major change as it became way more powerful. But after breaking through to Tier-3 order base, His order force remained the same.
' No wonder...So that's why It's being said that the difference between Tier-1 and Tier-2 order bases is larger than the difference between Tier-2 and Tier-3 order bases. '
Athan thought about it, and it made sense. But still, His Chaos grinder upgrade and his chaos force had a major change as it became more powerful. On top of that, His order base, which was a transparent crystal, became bigger, so his reserve of order force increased by at least three times than previously.
This way, Those who are at Tier-3 order base are still more powerful than Tier-2 order base since the reserve of Order increase, and with more powerful chaos force, Their order techniques also become stronger, and they can last long in battle with their big reserve of order force.
After finishing his breakthrough, Athan started to consolidate his order base.
But while Athan was consolidating his order base and will be comprehending the next order method to train more and become powerful, Something more interesting was happening at the Training program of the Great Bridgade Palace.
Tiana and Avelia had a nervous expressions on their faces as they looked at each other.
" Why did they call us here? Do you have any idea? "
Avelia asked Tiana, But Tiana also shook her head, " No Idea. But we did hold back and just entered the placements to pass the test in the tournament. As per our plan, we didn't stand out much. So, I also have no idea why they did call us here. "
Both Tiana and Avelia were currently standing in a vast hall that was built by some mystical white material. The design of this hall was aesthetically beautiful, and there were many plants.
But the hall was also bearing a certain kind of pressure on them. That's why they were nervous.
