Chapter 60 Third Superpower And God-Like Authorities Of A World Master
Since Alister hasn't awakened his third superpower yet, his third superpower was labeled as "unawakened superpower" in his system status screen.
With that in mind, Alister decided to awaken his third superpower. With his Zombie Virus Absolute Control (Gold) talent, Alister could easily choose what superpower he wanted to awaken.
Of course, even that had its own limits since the zombie virus had limits on awakening superpowers. It was mostly elemental-type or physical-type and it couldn't awaken absurd powers like time or fate.
Even Yun Ren who had awakened a space-type power only had the ability to teleport and even that ability had its limits. Not to mention, the superpower that one could awaken varied among individuals so Alister could either let the zombie virus awaken a new superpower at random, or at least copy the zombie virus of human awakeners or evolved zombies.
There was a reason why Alister could reawaken Lynn and Alice's superpowers and it was due to his control over the zombie virus without the assistance of the Zombie Virus Absolute Control (Gold) talent since he hadn't received it before.
Although Lynn and Alice could reawaken those superpowers by themselves without his assistance, he still assisted in hastening the process. Even resetting the world wouldn't change one's superpower as everyone already had a predetermined unawakened superpower and the zombie virus only worked by triggering the awakening of that superpower.
And when Alister assisted in awakening Lynn and Alice's superpowers before, he had memorized their zombie virus already so he could use their superpower as a reference to awaken his third superpower.
Alice's superpower was the same as him so there was no point in copying her superpower. Thus, Alister used Lynn's zombie virus as a reference and copied her superpower instead.
Lynn's superpower was physical augmentation. It works by using viral energy to strengthen one's physical attributes. It was a very straightforward ability yet also a powerful one.
Although Alister could awaken another elemental superpower since he had memorized the zombie virus of the human awakeners and evolved zombies that he had killed such as Yun Ren's teleportation or that human awakener at dorm 172 who could use lightning manipulation, Alister still preferred to copy Lynn's power instead.
After all, he had trained Lynn in her usage of her superpower before so he was more proficient in her superpower compared to others. Furthermore, Alister knew that he lacked defensive skills right now and the physical augmentation could be used to increase his endurance and defense.
Not to mention, it could even be used to increase his speed and reaction time as well as physical strength. And in combat, if his opponent was evenly matched against him, the physical augmentation power could easily come in handy.
After deciding to awaken the physical augmentation power, Alister controlled the zombie virus in his body to awaken his third superpower. In just several seconds, Alister awakened his third superpower.
Feeling the power coursing through his entire body after he activated the physical augmentation to improve his physical attributes in an all-rounded manner, Alister felt that with his three superpowers, he would be invincible in the 9th-level transcendent power level.
And if he used his Trinity (Red) talent to create two avatars with the same power level as him, that would further consolidate his invincibility in the same stage. Even leapfrog battles to defeat a Transcendent King were still a possibility.
"At least I feel more confident in living in the transcendent world. As long as I don't go out much often and risk my exposure, I should be able to survive in the transcendent world until I become strong enough to dominate the transcendent world."
After experiencing the drastic increase in his power, Alister wasn't as tense as he was when he had thought of returning to the transcendent world.
Before, he had wanted to stay in the zombie world until he was strong enough to return to the transcendent world. But Alister knew that he couldn't do that for two reasons.
The flow of time in the transcendent world will return back to normal when he is forced to return to the transcendent world a week from now. In his absence, Alister didn't want to let his parents worry about him.
Not to mention, Alister was also worried about his parent's safety. If they were to encounter a disaster that could have been prevented if he was present, Alister would blame himself for being a coward.
But if it was a disaster that he couldn't prevent such as a dimensional gate suddenly appearing near his parent's house and the monsters that came out of the dimensional gate killed them, Alister would only take revenge for his parents and mourn their death. After all, it was something he couldn't prevent so Alister wouldn't blame himself for something that was out of his control.
Even he couldn't prevent the appearance of the dimensional gate in the supermarket before since he didn't have the ability to destroy dimensional gates or prevent their appearance.
Alister knew that it was due to his incompetence since if he was a god, he could have the power to destroy it. The power of being powerless to make everything within his control disgusted Alister since his cautious personality wouldn't allow something to be out of his control.
'I have to become stronger as soon as possible. However, I still have a week's worth of time in staying in the Zombie World so I can at least use that time to hang out with Lynn and Alice in the zombie apocalypse.'
Alister thought as his mental perception had already picked up the presence of zombies which was located a few kilometers away from his location.
Since he was currently inside the heavily guarded base of the Cloud Sect, those F-rank zombies couldn't even break the defenses of the Cloud Sect since armed personnel were more than enough to deal with them.
But that allowed Alister to know that Yun Ren's detonation of the zombie virus bombs had taken effect much faster than he had expected.
'Lynn and Alice should already be fighting against those zombies. Well, not that I'm worried about them since their existence was like a late-game player returning to the newbie village. It's undoubtedly a massacre.'
Alister had already known that Alice was in her school while Lynn was in her house when the zombie apocalypse had started but he wasn't worried since the F-rank zombies were just too weak compared to them.
Even the weakest among them who was none other than Alice was still at S-rank. And when that was compared to those F-rank zombies, that was like comparing an early-game mob to a late-game boss.
Having more time to spare, Alister used it to explore the new feature of his World Travel Simulator System which was none other than the World Master feature.
After Alister had acquired ownership of the Zombie World, he became a World Master.
If those billionaires only owned a mere private island, then Alister owned the world
Looking outside the window of the base in Cloud Sect, Alister couldn't help but mutter. "The world is mine."
"And so will the Transcendent World be!"
Opening the system menu, Alister tapped on the [World Master] button.
[World Master: Alister Wright
World Owned (1): Zombie World #3046827
Authorities When Present In the Owned World (Including But Not Limited To): Immortality, Invulnerability, Invincibility, Eternal Youth
Authorities When The Owned World Has Sufficient Energy: Nigh Omnipresence, Nigh Omnipotence, Nigh Omniscience, Targeted Killing, Time Manipulation, Space Manipulation, World Will Manipulation
Note: The World Master can have more authority according to his needs. Authorities are reliant on either the energy of the World Master or the energy of the world. Therefore, the World Master cannot use the authorities if the energy of the world is insufficient aside from a few self-saving authorities.]
"Damn! As long as I am in my owned world, I am basically a god or at least an immortal."
After reading the authorities displayed on his system screen, Alister decided to test them out.
He was like a kid who has acquired a new toy but who could blame him? Almost everyone who had learned they had god-like abilities in a world would immediately test them out.
Using Nigh Omniscience, Alister immediately obtained information regarding the current live location of Alice.
Alister could see that Alice was fighting some zombies along with her classmates but Alice seemed to be hiding most of her power to enjoy the experience of fighting zombies alongside her classmates and friends.
"Bruh, what the heck is Alice doing? Her classmates are literally fighting for their lives yet she is thinking of this like a game."
"No wonder she is my sister. We are so related."
Alister couldn't help but comment as he shook his head and watched Alice's actions from a third-person point of view.
Using Nigh Omnipresence, Alister locked onto the locations of the zombies that Alice and her classmates were fighting. Afterward, he used his Targeted Killing authority and killed those zombies from afar.
Zombies were already dead, well most of them.
But Alister could even kill non-living things and inanimate objects with his Targeted Killing Authority!
Alister had to admit. Using such god-like power, was too intoxicating! As if the world was within his complete control!
