Chapter 106: Chapter 106: Limitless Lv5
Alex activated full power energy absorption. Large amounts of energy flowed from the Mother Box, which Alex absorbed and converted into energy points, then fed them into the system. The template fusion rate steadily increased.
Though Alex forcibly suppressed the Mother Box, he could still sense its resistance. It constantly tried to send out some signal, attempting to connect with something else.
Alex knew the Mother Box was trying to link with the other two Mother Boxes, but under the suppression of the runes engraved on the walls, these attempts were futile.
Looking at the Mother Box in his hand, Alex pondered. Unlike the Infinity Stones, the Mother Box could still function even outside the DC Universe, which meant it could be one of the foundations of a nascent universe.
With that thought, Alex opened his pocket dimension. Inside, the Eternal Flame and the Frost Casket formed a sun and land, and the energies of both fused under the influence of barriers, creating higher-tier energy.
This energy was limitless. Although not vast in quantity, it steadily enhanced the system's fusion rate.
Alex placed the Mother Box into his pocket dimension and engraved more complex runes around it. Using the barrier techniques from the world of Jujutsu Kaisen, he fully merged the Mother Box's energy with that of the Eternal Flame and Frost Casket, creating even higher-tier energy.
With this new, stronger energy, the pocket dimension rapidly expanded, soon reaching the size of a town. Even then, the expansion didn't stop.
However, halfway through the expansion, the pace suddenly slowed. Alex realized that his Lv4 Limitless Cursed Technique could no longer handle such a powerful space. If he forced control, the pocket dimension could collapse.
Alex frowned and opened the system panel to check the current experience points for the Limitless Cursed Technique:
Limitless Cursed Technique Lv4 (4856/5000): Capable of interfering with atomic-level matter and manipulating space. The closer an object is to the user, the slower it moves, and it will never be able to touch the user. Partial control over space is achieved.
Only 100 more experience points were needed to level up. There was still time.
"Stand back!" he warned the Amazon warriors and Catwoman behind him.
Once they were at a safe distance, Alex focused on stabilizing the pocket dimension while repeatedly activating the Limitless Cursed Technique, unleashing dense spatial slashes.
Experience points for the Limitless Cursed Technique steadily increased:
+1 experience point
+1 experience point
+1 experience point
...
After several minutes, as Alex struggled to control the continued expansion of the pocket dimension, the system sent a different notification:
+1 experience point
Congratulations! Your Limitless Cursed Technique has leveled up!
Limitless Cursed Technique Lv5 (3/20000): Capable of interfering with atomic-level matter and fully manipulating space. Objects near the user slow down considerably and can never touch the user. Has immense spatial manipulation powers!
A flood of information entered Alex's mind. At Lv5, the Limitless Cursed Technique underwent a tremendous transformation.
Moving Themyscira into the pocket dimension had been a tremendous drain on Alex's energy, leaving him panting heavily. But with the dimension's energy replenishing him, he quickly recovered.
He didn't stop there. Beneath Themyscira, Alex created several enormous portals, stabilizing them so that they would be sustained by the pocket dimension's energy. These portals would remain open permanently.
Water flowed out from one portal and fell into the sea through another, creating a continuous tidal cycle.
Alex engraved more runes, forming barriers that reflected the external sky inside the pocket dimension, creating an illusion of reality.
Standing above Themyscira, Alex nodded in satisfaction. The surrounding environment now looked exactly as it had originally, indistinguishable from the outside world.
This was now his stronghold, and one he could carry with him. However, a few steps remained—like pulling in a network cable. Even Kamar-Taj needed one, so the pocket dimension was no exception.
Returning to the ground, Catwoman ran up to Alex. Having just witnessed the entire process, she couldn't help but ask, "Boss, what did you just do?"
Hippolyta followed closely behind her, also staring at Alex. Although the surroundings looked identical, she knew that Themyscira had undergone a major transformation. As Queen of the Amazons, she was eager to know the full extent of these changes.
By moving Themyscira into his pocket dimension, Alex had taken a giant step forward in building his own world, reaching the level of Asgard. In a good mood, he smiled and explained to the women, "I've moved Themyscira into a space I created and set up various barriers to maintain the island's functionality. It's now a completely independent, self-sustaining small world."
The women were shocked. Even Catwoman, who knew Alex better than anyone, was stunned.
She had always known he was powerful, but she hadn't realized he could create entire spaces—a feat that only mythological gods were supposed to accomplish!
Unlike Catwoman, Hippolyta had broader knowledge as the Amazon queen. She understood the significance of creating a space. Not even the god-king Zeus could achieve such a feat!
When Zeus originally planned to establish Themyscira, he had hoped to create a space for the Amazons to live in, but since he couldn't, he had settled for a magical protective barrier instead.
But now, Alex had accomplished something even Zeus couldn't. Coupled with the power to lift an island, it was clear Alex's strength surpassed that of the god-king himself.
This realization filled Hippolyta with despair. She immediately abandoned her plans to free the Amazons from Alex's control and prayed that Diana wouldn't come searching for Themyscira. If she did, she would surely fall into this demon's hands as well.
In the following days, Alex created several portals connecting Themyscira to the outside world and continued to strengthen the island's barriers.
While stabilizing the barriers and strengthening the world, he felt a sense of inadequacy. The barrier techniques from the Jujutsu Kaisen universe were insufficient to maintain the operation of an entire world—he needed more knowledge.
His Lv4 Limitless Cursed Technique allowed him to access the knowledge in others' minds, so Alex ventured out and extracted the knowledge of several scientists, which helped him enhance the barrier. However, it still wasn't enough.
Recognizing this problem, Alex planned to visit other worlds to acquire more knowledge about barrier techniques, such as the barrier arts from the Naruto universe or the formation techniques from cultivation worlds.
In addition to this, through constantly absorbing energy, the template fusion rate reached 60%, unlocking a new ability!
