Chapter 345 Using the Empire System

Chapter 345 Using the Empire System

A few months later, in Lake City.

Finmir, a peak tier 3 Earth Knight, queued up to get the newly updated Moonlight Empire System.

After a few hours of lining up, it was finally his turn.

"Put your hand in this," the officer instructed.

As Finmir extended his hands toward the device, a blob of energy penetrated his body.

Feeling it touch his soul, Finmir panicked a little.

Fortunately, a familiar panel appeared in front of him.

[Do you agree to bind the Moonlight Empire System?]

"Agree," Finmir muttered without hesitation.

After being indoctrinated by the empire, Finmir's adaptability was top-notch.

Seeing the weird system binding his soul, instead of fear, he was filled with excitement.

[Binding complete.]

"Next."

Before he could further look through the system, the next person in line came.

...

Exiting the City Hall, Finmir returned to his residence in the middle of Lake City.

"Finmir!"

"Father!"

His wife and children greeted him.

"I'm back."

"Did you receive the New Empire token?" His wife asked curiosity.

Due to the limited production of the Empire system, the first ones to be given were those of class 1 citizens.

A month passed, and it was finally the turn of class 2 citizens.

Finmir was one of the first few class 2 citizens who finally got the new empire system.

As for his wife and children, their appointment was still a few weeks away.

"Yes, and it's not a token, it's a system," Finmir explained.

Hearing the word "system," his wife and children became puzzled.

"What system? Runes?Array Formation?" they asked, searching for?markings on his body.

"It's more advanced than that," Finmir said, still amazed that the new empire system could bind his soul.

Knowing that the new empire system would be bound to the soul, her wife became worried for a while.

She was worried that this was just an alternative slave seal that would be imposed upon them.

"Don't worry; I could unbind the system whenever I wanted.

"Furthermore, didn't you know that our Empire, His Majesty, wouldn't do something detrimental to us?"

Hearing this, his wife heaved a sigh of relief.

Thinking that she was just a mere mortal decades ago, she couldn't help but laugh at her thoughts.

An alternative slave seal?

If the empire needed her to be a slave or something similar, she would be willing to do so without question.

The empire had given her everything she could ever imagine: a home, a family, enough clothes and food, etc.

She wouldn't be even alive right now if not for the empire.

Being already in her 60s, she would have long died of natural causes before she could even complain.

Now, being an official mage with a lifespan of 150 years, she was still in her prime.

Furthermore, with the current prosperity of the empire, it was just the beginning.

...

Checking all omissions, Finmir initiated his breakthrough.

Feeling the shackles preventing him from breaking through, Finmir snorted.

"Break for me!"

Using the mana in his body, he began to grind the shackles bit by bit.

After a few minutes, feeling the deficiency, the mana bank automatically regenerated his mana, making it back to full.

Seeing it work, Finmir continued to grind the shackle.

...

Soon, a few weeks later, Finmir slowly opened his eyes.

"Tier 4!" Finmir clenched his fist, feeling his newly found power.

However, thinking that he had spent 300,000 units of mana, he couldn't help but smile wryly.

It seemed that his foundation was more fragile than he thought.

Without the continuous supply of mana, he could only dream of advancing in his previous state.

Seeing the debt of hundreds of thousands of crystal credits, the pain in his heart was immense.

To rent a special mana room, one only needed a hundred thousand crystal credits.

Yet he used three times that amount just to breakthrough.

Fortunately, there was the encouragement bonus.

Breaking through tier 4 alone would grant him a million crystal credits.

Thinking of such an amount, even his newly found strength didn't sound so amazing.

This was already generational wealth.

It would take him hundreds of years to even save this amount.

However, thinking of the cumbersome administrative process, his joy dampened.

Over a decade ago, after he advanced to tier 3, it took a few years to receive the bonus of 100,000 crystal credits.

Now, with a larger amount, Finmir guessed it could only take longer.

Even the advancement of his status to become a class 1 citizen would also be delayed.

He was unlike those from private academies who had connections and only needed a few months to process everything.

He was just one of the hundreds of quadrillion people in the Empire.

Advancing to tier 4 is just the beginning, barely touching the upper strata of the empire.

Now Finmir could only wait and savor his current strength.

Suddenly, Finmir thought of the system.

He still hadn't browsed it entirely; maybe there was a solution hidden in it.

Taking his time, Finmir looked at the various changes in the system one by one.

...

Soon, after a few hours of searching, he finally found what he was looking for.

[Personal Information:

Scrolling down, he saw what he was looking for.

[Auto Update.]

Tapping on it, the system did another scan on him.

Feeling the changes in his tier, the information of his current tier and status changed.

[Congratulations on reaching tier 4 sky knight on your own.

[Congratulations on reaching a major milestone.
