Chapter 757 Total Control
The elf forging technique is a unique technique used by the elf race. As one of the oldest races in the world, the elf community also develops in the field of forging. The way elf forges their equipment differs from the usual forging technique and dwarf technique.
If the dwarf heavily relies on heat and hammering, the elf forging technique relies more on mana manipulation. Some even said the dwarf technique is hot forging while the elf race is cold forging.
This is the basic information that Angus gets from Silvia. Unfortunately, Silvia didn't know the details of this sophisticated and complex technique as an outcast. Moreover, Silvia's guilty heart prevents her from having any contact with the elf race.
Despite being possessed by a fallen mad god and developing a second personality, Silvia still loves her own brethren as the High Elves. What she did a long time ago is unforgivable even after a thousand years have passed by.
Hence, she only knows the news about the elf race from her previous work as a notable merchant. During her time as a merchant, she is forced to have a vast network and influence to attract a good combatant in putting her Fallen God side to rest.
Unfortunately, her hard work is also futile as the Fallen God already stays in her body for too long and cannot pass on unless they die together. Now, she could only become Angus and his little family's loyal slave.
The information about the elf's unique forging technique attracted Angus. Moreover, Angus also knows that cold forging from his dwarf Master Balrug. The stubborn old dwarf often praises the work and craftsmanship of the elf race.
Balrug is a perfectionist to the bone regarding forging and craftsmanship. In his eyes, it is either a failed work or a masterpiece. Any item that is praised by him is definitely a masterpiece.
Therefore, Angus was also interested in the elf forging techniques for a long time. Unfortunately, the elf community is closed from the outside world despite their peaceful nature.
Besides the Roundel City, outsiders couldn't enter the elf territory without strict procedures. The procedure is not only very strict but also takes a long time.
Angus even heard it takes about 30 to 50 years before someone could get permission to enter the elf territory. Even then, they also get a lot of restrictions and are treated as outsiders by the elf residents.
This kind of absurd regulation makes the elf race hardly get contact with the outside world. In other words, all their secrets are also closely guarded and rarely spread outside.
Angus didn't know if they could get the elf forging technique when he visited Roundel, but he at least had a better chance than just sitting around. However, he is still reluctant to go otherwise after the continuing incident when going to a new place.
After contemplating for a long time, Angus still cannot decide whether to go or stay with his beloved girls. He is also glad that his father and Jayna give him time to think alone. Before he notices, the sun has already gone down and he is still indecisive.
After the peaceful night sky from the window for a while, Angus decided to rely on external help for guidance. He sits on the carpet other.
A moment later, Angus closed his eyes and found himself in the near the bed where his two beloved girls sleep and cuddle each other.
A moment later, Angus closed his eyes and found himself in the familiar white room of the manual battle system. When the battle notification starts, he instant-casts a powerful binding spell to restrict the aggressive monster before him.
"Huft... Seal Open." muttered Angus after taking a deep breath.
Suddenly, Angus feels his perception and mind are going overdrive. He could feel everything in the surrounding in detail. It is as if he becomes omniscient. Angus's current state is in the middle of using [Analyze] to the second threshold.
In this state, his mind and perception are often enhanced to the limits. With his current intelligence, he could feel everything in his surroundings to the atomic level. However, the second threshold of [Analyze] is not just only 'perceive' and 'analyze'.
It could give Angus total control over the things he thoroughly perceives. There is a saying that when you completely understand the subject, you have complete control over it. This is [Analyze] true power.
If Angus uses this second threshold state when fighting Dumrod or the colossal monster, he just needs time to thoroughly [Analyze] them before he can control their body, movement, or even their mind.
As for Throne, he didn't know if he could still control it since Throne's existence gives a similar vibe to Mira and Mitar. Some kind of unknown power protects them from being 'Analyzed'.
Still, this power is not without boon. With this immense power, he realizes that his previous theory about this world being connected through an enormous rune network is true. In fact, his total control ability is related to this massive rune network.
By manipulating this invisible network, he could have total control over everything. At a glance, this is truly a God-like ability. But it will also attract other people who have the same power as him.
If he uses his ability in the outside world, there is a huge chance he will get detected by other people with the same ability as him through this giant network rune. At that time, he will only be attracted to more problems.
Therefore, he could only seal his second threshold ability and use it privately inside his battle system world. This idea is similar to the internet in Angus's previous life.
As long as he doesn't get connected with the network, he will not be found by others. Although there is still a chance he will get exposed if others somehow use [Analyze] on him. Though, it is also a very unlikely chance to happen.
It is the same as the internet in his past life. There are thousands and millions of hackers. Yet, they only attack specific targets and ignore most people. Unless someone attracts them, they will mostly ignore billions of other people.
Through his [Analyze], he knows the world rune is similar to the internet in the past. Like the people that live in the era of information, he also knows how to prevent himself from getting attracted to wicked people.
The best solution is hiding and camouflaging with the crowd and staying anonymous.
Angus simulated hundreds of scenarios with choices of staying and going using his current supermind state. He also redesigned and contemplated Jayna's sword design. After a few minutes of silence, Angus released a deep sigh.
Based on his logical simulation, forging Jayna's sword has only a 54.9% chance of success. One of the huge factors is his limited experience and knowledge in forging magical swords with those rare materials.
Although he could simulate the process and improve it continuously, many unknown factors could affect the whole forging process. These unknown factors could only be learned and found through experience using the same materials and forging process.
Unfortunately, Angus couldn't do this. Most of his forging material has limited stock, especially the phoenix feather and red-veined wood. These two materials are one of a kind. Even with Widespread's vast network, they couldn't find this kind of legendary rare material.
"Haa.... 78.7% suggested going while 21.3% stayed for unknown and superstitious risk. Huft... Even my logical thinking asked me to go. It seems I don't have any choice but to go. Still, I am not just going without any rewards." said Angus, thinking of countless vicious plans.
When Angus uses [Analyze], his mind will be forced to think objectively and logically. Only after the whole [Analyze] process is done could he think with his usual mind, both emotionally and logically.
When Angus opened his eyes and exited the battle system space, he could see the sunrise on the horizon and slowly illuminate the dark night sky. This is also the second disadvantage of using [Analyze].
When using [Analyze] too much, he will forget about time and be completely immersed in the [Analyze] process. This situation often leads to 'overthinking' situations.
"Morning, did you already decide?" asked Jayna from the side.
Seeing his gorgeous woman in her night dress and shined by the sunrise, Angus couldn't help but be stunned at her while thinking of eating this beautiful phoenix. Noticing Angus' dirty thoughts through their bond, Jayna frowned slightly.
Before she could say anything, Angus had already planted a deep kiss on her lips. Jayna tries pushing him back and tells him Anna is sleeping beside them. Yet, the pleasure and deep kiss clouded her mind.
She didn't even notice her body subconsciously inviting Angus to do more. It is as if her body is moving instinctively and seeking for more pleasure.
A moment later, a soft continuous moan could be heard inside Angus' room. During this sexual activity, twin small girls peek silently through the window with their usual creepy eyes.
