    Chapter 514: System Upgrade (Part-1)


    12th February, Year 6413, Second Arcane Era.


    It''s been around five years since Charles returned to Edhen World from Faith ne.


    It was around 9 P.M.


    Whileprehending the spell models in the Inner World, Charles received a piece of information from his consciousness and stopped his work in a hurry.


    Then, he disappeared from the dark sky filled with seven massive spell models and left the Inner World in a hurry.


    He soon opened his eyes and saw the Tower Spirit Zera standing before him.


    At that moment, she seemed to be showing some impatience expression on her illusionary face, causing him to raise his eyebrows.


    ''She is mimicking human expression?'' He went stunned for a moment.


    "What happened?" He couldn''t help but ask.


    In the meantime, Zera bowed her head in greeting and quickly responded.


    "Lord Rh asked you toe to the Underground Basement, Master."


    "Oh? Is it ready?" In a surprise, Charles stood up from the sofa, enveloped his body in a crimson me, and disappeared from there.


    A secondter, he reappeared in the underground basement hall and soon saw a separate dome-like structure made of rune words that appeared on the other side of the hall.


    It appeared more dazzling and seemed to hold some tremendous energies inside.


    On the other hand, multipleyers of array structures appeared around the Red Cube, and thoseyers appeared to be holding the artifact still!


    The Red Cube appeared more like some secret locker than an artifact and was floating 1 meter up in the air.


    ''Why do I feel like we are about to open an interary dimensional portal through this cube?'' The corner of his lips twitched as he thought of a certain movie he had watched long ago.


    He then gazed towards the walls, ceiling, and floors inside the golden dome and was surprised.


    ''He sure made many preparations!'' Charles observed the many defensive arrays engraved all over the ces and chuckled.


    At that moment, Rh also stood outside the dome and seemed to be in the middle of deep thoughts.


    Charles also noticed his presence and started walking towards the dome.


    Noticing his arrival, Rh turned his gaze towards his direction and spoke with a thoughtful look on his face.


    "I''ve ced a total of 3,560 defensive arrays in this dome, and they are capable of blocking all kinds of probing or spying powers. I also long activated the Rebirth Tower''s defensive structure, so you don''t have to worry about World''s Will''s petty schemes."


    Nodding, Charles appeared close towards the runic words filled dome and soon felt the ''Time'' power hidden in it!


    After scanning the outer dome, he shifted his gaze towards the System Cube and analyzed it.


    Unlike before, the System Cube appeared only around 1 meter in size and had five unique box-like slots inside.


    Charles also saw the Divine rank Time-elemental crystal, which they took from the pocket dimension, hovering next to the System Cube, and it seemed to be connected to the Cube through strange strings.


    Countless strange words were inscribed all over the System Cube and the Divine-Rank Time-Elemental Crystal and appeared more mysterious.


    ''They are not Rune Words!''


    "Whatnguage is that?" Charles asked in curiosity.


    "It''s thenguage of Ancients, or you can call it as Astial Language. I learned it when I was adventuring the Elder ne and thought of using it here instead of Rune Language." Rh''s words made Charles''s expression freeze all of a sudden.


    ''Astial Language? Wait, didn''t I read a book regarding 64 divine skills and a particr civilization named ''Astial'' in the Faith ne? What was that again? The Origin Nexus, right? The journey of three princes and a Lone Princess''s grief... It seems there are some big secrets behind it.'' He thought for a moment and decided to search more about itter.


    What he needed to do now was to focus on the current situation.


    Casting those useless thoughts away, he looked at Rh and asked the most important question.


    "What about Miracle spell? Did you manage to gather enough Luck power?"


    A smile appeared on Rh''s slightly wrinkled face.


    "You don''t have to worry about it. When I created this tower, I added a specific function to gather Luck Power from the masses from time to time. Currently, I''ve enough luck power to cast arge-scale miracle. I also visited nearby Kingdoms once in a few months during the past few years and stole the masses'' luck stealthily."


    Noticing Charles''s suspicious gaze, Rh let out a fake cough and added impatiently.


    "I only stole one or two months of their lucks, and it won''t alter their fate. Compared to you, I''m more generous and a good guy."


    Shaking his head, Charles shifted his attention towards the System Cube and spoke.


    "Let''s begin then."


    Nodding, Rh took two steps forward, touched the dome-shapedyer, and started to chant in a strangenguage.


    Simultaneously, he took out a pocket watch from his space ring, let it travel into the mysterious dome, and moved it towards the Red Cube using his wisdom power.


    "Star Watch?" Charles got startled inside and decided to wait.


    The Star Watch reached the System Cube in seconds, passed through the outeryer, and entered the first slot.


    The next instant, the whole box-like slot glowed in golden light and then sealed the Star Watch in the form of a new goldenyer.


    At that moment, Rh took out the Golden Dice, the Mysterious ck Book, a strange ring, and finally the bluish stone called ''Eye of Insight'' from his space ring and sent them into the dome one by one.


    Each artifact moved under Rh''s Will and soon entered into a separate slot before sealing itself in the empty slots.


    All this time, Rh didn''t stop for a second and continued reciting the chanting.


    The reciting ritualsted for more than 12 minutes.


    When he ended the long chant, he shifted his attention towards his Inner World and activated the ''Miracle'' skill!


    An invisible ripple came out of his body a secondter, entered the mysterious dome, and soon enveloped the System Cube.


    He then zeroed his attention towards the ''Time-Elemental'' Crystal and muttered.


    "Activate!"


    A secondter, Charles saw that the whole System Cube shone in bright red light and seemed to have entered a strange state.


    At the same time, the Time-Elemental Crystal also released the pure form of ''Time'' energy andpletely enveloped the mysterious domeyer.


    "All we need to do now is to wait," Rh said in a calm tone, turned around, and walked towards the other side.


    On the other hand, Charles watched the System Cube and soon squinted his eyes as he noticed that the System Cube tried to move here and there like a living being.


    It moved towards the right side, then towards Charles''s direction, and continued the process like some baby.


    "Time is moving 10,000 times faster inside. So, it''s normal for you to see the Cube''s movement.." A cold voice came from behind.
