Chapter 38: Beneath the Surface Part 9, Results

The Bright Light that was brighter than a Star illuminated the Second Chamber. The Light covered everything, and even the Blue Light of Nuclear Radiation disappeared by its brightness. It acted like a Flashbang. What followed the Bright Light was the Sound of a Cracking Thunderbolt. It Echoed and created a small earthquake in the Second Chamber. It shook the Giant PIllars and Rocky Walls. Dust began forming within the Second Chamber. It covered everything like Smokebomb.

After the Earthquake was an absence of sound, No sound followed the events. It was only pure silence and eternal brightness. The Bright Light dimmed, and the Blue Light of Nuclear Radiation fought back. The Second Chamber was back in its original state. The only thing different was the former battlefield that was silent and calm.

In the Center of all Events that occurred within the Second Chamber was a White Serpent. Its scale shone with the reflection of the Blue Light above the ceiling. A Stray Lightning slightly moves around the body of the White Serpent. It slowly disappeared, and the White Serpent lost its brightness. The Whole Ultimate Attack was complete. It killed everything within the Second Chamber.

With the Bright Light disappearing, The White Serpent looked around and found nothing but corpses of its former enemies. It saw blood and toxic fluids flowing through the battlefield creating small ponds. It won the Battle with a Grand spectacle. While looking around the Dead Battlefield, A Thought passed through the White Serpent's Mind.

'I need to eat them. I shouldn't waste food.' After the Hard Battle, Only one thought was within the White Serpent's Mind. It was to eat its food. Although the food in front of it was nothing but meat sacks, No one shall ever pick food brought to them with hard work. The White Serpent's lives with this Motton when dealing with Food-related Problems. A Monotone Voice then echoed within the White Serpent's mind.

<Are you going to eat them, Sister?>

'Of course... Why not?' The White Serpent shook its head. Why would Ego ask something about the food? It was their reward after a hard battle. She wouldn't abandon it. She couldn't even calculate how much Biomass she could get from the Food.

<Nothing...>

<It's just... The Bodies are either Cut in half, Beaten to death, Beheaded, A Body with a Giant Hole, Bodies with no Skin, and A Body destroyed by an Acidic Fluid. All of the Bodies or Food near Sister seems to be messed up.>

'You got a good point, but wasting food isn't my style.' The White Serpent thought while it turned its head upward with pride. It seems that Ego gave up as she stayed silent. The White Serpent wasn't a picky eater, and with the It's Fucking Raw Title. The White Serpent could easily eat disgusting food with pride.

'Thanks for the Meal... I shall honor your bodies within my Stomach.' The White Serpent thought before opening its Jaw. It was time to start its Dinner. Cleaning the Second Chamber might take a lot of time.

As time passes by within the Second Chamber, All that remains were the Violet Toxic Fluids. The Blood and Bodies of the Homoanuras seem to have disappeared. The White Serpent was near the Toxic Small Pond. It felt its body getting heavy, but it just planned to wait for its Stomach to digest everything it ate. The White Serpent's Stomach was fast to digest, but it will also take a while if the numbers the White Serpent ate were beyond its limit.

The White Serpent curled its body and placed its head on the top.

'That was a good meal.' Persia thought as she flicked her tongue. It was a good meal after a Hard Battle. She was satisfied, and the only thing she wanted to do was wait for the Level Up. She needed to be awake as she wanted to Level Up and continue on her journey. Resting would mean going through the Leveling Process as her Health and Stamina would get restored. A Notification echoed within her mind. It seems that it was time for her to Level Up.

*Ding!*

[You have eaten 405 Amphibian Creatures named Homoanuras... You have gained 5000 Biomass.]

[You have reached the Biomass Requirements for Level up...]

[Leveling Up.]

[You have gained a Level.]

[You have reached the Biomass Requirements for Level up...]

[Leveling Up.]

[You have gained a Level.]

[You have reached the Biomass Requirements for Level up...]

[Leveling Up.]

[You have gained a Level.]

[You have reached the Biomass Requirements for Level up...]

[Leveling Up.]

[You have gained a Level.]

[Level Up has affected your Attributes by a Small Factor.]

[Level Up rewards: 40 Points.]

[Your Dimensions has increased to 600 cm in length, 20 cm in Diameter]

With the Notification echoing within Persia's Mind. A Bright Light shone within her Body. She leveled up 4x in a row. She didn't expect to reach such heights. She took it calmly and let the Leveling Process guide her. The Bright Light slowly created a small encasement that protected Persia from anything. It was the Reward of passing through the 4x Level Up. The Ability to have an Invulabirity during Level Up was a Good Ability.

Persia lost her consciousness, and her Body began levitating. With the Bright Light within Persia's Body. The Body molded itself into many forms. It got bigger and bigger. It got longer and longer. Persia was becoming a Big Snake. She could even eat Mammals. She was becoming a Monster. Her Limit was unknown. She still has more to do to reach the Limit.

The Second Chamber got illuminated by a Huge Light. It was stronger than the Ultimate Attack of Persia. Such Light didn't cause an earthquake, but it fully illuminated the Entrance Chamber, First Chamber, and Third Chamber. Even Shadows wouldn't form due to such bright light.

An hour passes by, and the Bright Light finally dimmed. Since the Invasion of Persia, A Bright Light illuminated the Whole Ancient Temple seems to be normal now. The Bright Light disappeared, and Persia returned to normal. She was in her Original curled-up Body Position.

Persia began moving, and her Head rose from her body. She looked around and found that the Violet Toxic Fluid disappeared. She got surprised as she didn't know how such a Dirty Chamber become Clean. The Whole Second Chamber looked normal. As if there wasn't a Huge Battle that recently happened.

'This is strange?' Persia furrowed her non-existent eyebrow while looking around the Second Chamber. Did something happen while she was asleep? The only thing she did was Level Up. There were no known purifying abilities a Level Up has. She then turned around and saw the Small Pond.

'Beautiful.' Persia thought while looking at the Small Pond. The Violet Toxic Acidic Fluid that conquered the Small Pond disappeared. It got replaced by the Former Clean and Clear Water. She shook her head as the whole situation was strange. Was this the effect of her Level Up? She did level up at least 4x in a row. That must have affected the Second Chamber.

'Ego, are you there?' Persia asked Ego if she was awake. She needs someone that could clarify the situation on hand. She also needed to head towards the Third Chamber and continue the Extermination Chamber. Persia would clearly not give up on her adventure. Ego's Monotone Voice then echoed within Persia's Mind.

<I'm here, Sister. What are your Orders?>

'Did you deactivate the Barrier?' Persia asked while looking at something in the distance. She could see the Five White Transparent Weapons floating in the Air. They seemed to be relatively calm, and She wanted to know if Ego wanted to continue using the Skill.

<Oh! I'm sorry, Sister. I forgot about it...>

'You forgot? Well, that is shocking. I never thought that Ego of all things would forget about something. I guess this is good. It would mean that Ego could make mistakes, but she could also learn from them. This means that she has good adaptability like normal sentient beings. I see...' Persia nodded to herself and looked at the Tunnel leading to the Third Chamber.

'Ego, It seems that I can teach you.' Persia had a strange smile on her face. She would have accepted it if Ego's a Perfect Being, but an Imperfect Ego was also a good thing. It would mean that the two could solve problems and have fun while doing it. Persia also wanted to teach Ego many things about the World. After all, She was Ego's Elder Sister.

<Hmm... It seems that I have a lot to learn. I will never commit such mistakes ever again. Perhaps the Archives are incomplete? I need to gather more information about the World. Please teach me, Teacher Sister.>

'Yes, I can teach you many things.' Persia nodded with pride until she realized something wrong. What kind of thing does she need to teach? She needed to be smart to be a good teacher. If she isn't smart, She might as well be embarrassing herself. Did she walk into a Mine?

'Well, Let's continue on our adventure.' Persia decided to change the subject and slithered towards the Third Chamber Tunnel. The Whole Chamber was in silence. She didn't know if there was something on the other side. She hopes there will be, as she needed more Biomass to evolve from her Current Form.

While slithering through the Dark Tunnel leading to the Third Chamber. Persia felt like she forgot something important. She began thinking about it and quickly remembered her Level Up. It has been a while since she saw her Status. She might as well check it since she had time in the Dark Tunnel.

'Ego, Open my Status.' Persia ordered Ego. Ordering Ego for her Status was fast than manually doing it. Persia wondered how Ego could do such a thing. It may be because of that White Dimension. It could easily make something out of nowhere. The only limit was probably the Imagination.

<Understood.>

'My Attributes grew by 34 Attribute Points. My Skills are numerous. I'm getting stronger and stronger. I think nothing can defeat me normally. The only ones that could defeat me are those that defy many things like me.' Persia thought while looking at her Status. She grew stronger as time passes by. She even almost lost count on time.

'My Recent Attribute Skills... I guess I'll test them later.' Persia thought as she continued on her Journey. The Status Window automatically disappeared, and it was time for Persia to passed through the Dark Tunnel. The Extermination is halfway complete.
