Biological Supercomputer System - Chapter 110: The Plant Hugger’s Power (1)

Chapter 110: The Plant Hugger’s Power (1)

[PROCEDURE COMPLETE. CRICUL’S BRAIN CRYSTAL POWER “METALLIZATION” SUCCESSFULLY EXTRACTED. CONGRATULATION, HOST.]

It was with that notification that Erik woke up. The young man was lying on his apartment’s cold floor with slight back pain.

He spent three hours motionless on the hard ground as the system was working its magic, and this resulted in the current situation.

“Damn… I really need to buy new furniture…” the young man said to himself.

“System, show me the status!” Erik said. He couldn’t wait to see what his new power was. If he got the gist of the whole power acquisition, he would get something that would make him turn things metallic.

The Cricul used it to its horns, but Erik, by comparing this with the densoph power, thought this would probably work in the same way as the sharpening power. As the young man said those words, a bluish-white screen appeared before him.

“Metallization?” Erik read the description of his power. By reading its description, he wasn’t surprised it was a D-ranked power.

The power stated that it could transform into metal body parts and items through mana, so it basically worked like Densoph’s power, Erik was right.

That was good since he could basically create weapons out of whatever he found around.

Then, the young man thought about how to use it with his other powers, and many ideas sprouted inside his mind.

Erik wanted to test it as soon as possible, so he channeled mana through his newly established neural link and willed it to circle through his skin.

After a couple of seconds, the organ started to slowly change color, but, at the same time, it lost elasticity. As Erik became unable to move his body, he immediately stopped providing mana, and his skin quickly returned to how it originally was.

<Well, I guess I can’t use it to create armor out of the skin. That was probably the reason why the Criculs used it only on their horns,> Erik thought. The young man then tried the newly acquired Cricul’s power on an item, making it as hard as steel.

“I have yet to try this on other creatures, but maybe I can use it to immobilize them.” Erik thought about this for a couple of minutes. Still, then he obviously concluded that by doing so, he would make their skin hard to penetrate and cut.

Besides, the creature in question would probably resist the foreign mana making it hard for Erik to use it on living beings.

The awakener then watched the clock lying on the ground. It still worked, but it had a broken glass; it currently was 21:14.

“I should go back to Amber’s house while I still can,” he mused, leaving his devastated apartment. Looking at the wreck his apartment had been reduced, Erik’s mood immediately plummeted. However, he wasn’t completely sad since he still got a new power.

He then headed to the train station. He had to pass through the main plaza as he went there and found many bars and restaurants open on his way.

There were many people drinking and dancing to the loud music, but it was clear that alcoholics intoxicated many of them.

In fact, some guys were molesting the others and were promptly forced to leave. Though, they didn’t like being kicked out and assaulted the guys who alerted the bouncers. A fight quickly broke out, but Erik wasn’t really interested in it, so he sped toward the train station.

When he arrived there, he waited for the train to arrive, and once he boarded it, the young man only had to wait five minutes before he arrived in the wealthy part of the eastern district.

It was clear that things were much more peaceful and safe there since many mansions and security guards were everywhere.

Though, the place was a little bit empty, as there was not a single person walking through the streets, primarily because those who had the money preferred to take their luxurious cars to go home.

After half an hour of walking, Erik finally reached Amber’s house, and once there, he texted the young woman to get the gates open.

Soon they opened, and Erik went inside the house

“Welcome, Erik!” Amber greeted. “Hi, Amber…” Erik said with a tint of tiredness.

“Did you work until now?” Amber asked. “Yes,” the young man replied, obviously lying to her. Then the sound of Erik’s stomach reverberated through the walls.

“It looks like you are quite hungry, am I right?” Amber asked.

“Indeed, I have not eaten anything since lunch,” he replied.

“Come then, I will have the chefs cook you something,” Amber enthusiastically said.

The two went to the kitchen, and Amber quickly asked the chef to make Erik dinner. After half an hour, the man presented a pasta dish with tomato sauce cooked with beef.

It was spectacular. Erik only ate something like this whenever he went to fancy restaurants with uncle Benjamin, so he was very happy to have the chance to eat this kind of food.

<For sure, going back to live alone will be traumatic,> Erik thought.

“How did the day go?”

“It wasn’t bad,” Erik said. “I helped Mister Fox grow his crops and then helped him collect them. We did finish late…” the young man lied.

“You know, I never saw your first power firsthand. I’ve always been curious about it. As you already know, many people scorned you for it, but I always found it very fascinating,” Amber said.

“You know, I can show it to you if you want…” Erik said.

“Yeah, why not? Once you are done with dinner, I’ll take you to the garden. You will show me then.”

Then the waiter brought many more dishes to the young man. He started with some beef rolls served with a sauce made of red wine and port, and then he brought a salad to the young man.

As the man finished his meal, Amber grabbed his hand and brought him to the garden. She was very cheerful, and a huge smile was plastered on her face. She couldn’t wait to see the power that made Erik infamous inside the school.

To say that the garden was big was an understatement. The place was much larger than Mister Fox’s farm and housed many flowers.

They had been planted inside different kinds of pots. There were even a lot of flowerbeds that contained roses, tulips, lilies, and other kinds of plants.

There were also trees around the garden, such as fruit-trees, cherry blossoms, and others. At the center of the garden stood a tree that resembled a palm tree. Its leaves were green, and its trunk was brownish in color. A few meters from the tree was a stone bench where they sat down.

In front of them, there was also a huge pond where many carps swam around. A light breeze blew over the area, making everything smell better and feel cleaner.

“This is probably my favorite spot here…” Amber said while looking at the beautifully carved pond. However, it wasn’t the pond that caught the young man’s attention but a tree covered by beautiful red leaves. Erik had no idea what that tree was, but it was majestic.

Amber noticed the way he was staring at it and smiled.

“My father asked some biological engineers to make that tree for me. It was for my fifth birthday,” Amber said.

“Its’ beautiful.”

Erik stared a little bit more until he was distracted by a fountain shaped like a dragon drinking water from its mouth.

A few other trees were placed near a fence, giving shade to the area during the day. The trees had multiple lights hung on them, which were lit during the night and illuminated the garden. The place looked like a magical world in a faraway galaxy.

“Mind to start?” Amber said.
