Chapter 1151 What Comes After
-----
[You have used the [Nanomachine Injection Syringe] into your Player Body.]
[You have fully absorbed the Nanomachines, who have strengthened your entire body durability and regeneration.]
[Your Strength and Vitality Stats have increased.]
Because I would have died otherwise, I took the syringe with nanomachines to gain enough strength to resist the searing heat and touch this core.
It seemed to be the only damn way to get to her and "free her" so I had no option in the matter, this was the only way of doing it.
"I wonder if there are some like these but outside of this game..."
Thanks to the toughness and resilience that the nanomachines granted to me, I touched the core while burning, but at least I wasn't dying anymore.
"I barely made it... Before I burn...!"
I touched the core, as I felt blue flames and electricity engulf my entire body, the pain, albeit dulled as a game, was still real.
RUMBLE!
The crystal trembled, suddenly electrocuting my entire body at the same time as I felt something else within it enter my body.
"Thank you for saving me..."
FLAAASH!
As I heard her voice inside of my mind, I felt a powerful shock that even reached my real body. For a moment, I felt like I had woken up with my real body, only for a second later to go back to my avatar.
"W-What was that?!"
I fell to my knees, gasping for air. I looked at the core at my side, it gained countless cracks, and its energy completely diminished.
I felt something within my Demonic Neutonium Core now, a being similar to Eleanora and Hendrick had used that place to bind itself to me.
The soul of the Neutonium Mother Core, perhaps.
Or a piece of it.
"Blake!"
"What happened?"
Eleanora and Zack came running to my side, though I was fine at the end, and without the heat burning me, my body seemed to naturally regenerate thanks to the nanobots.
"Yeah, I mean, if we go to Mechanoid Industries, we can work out something," he said. "But with all these golems, you could probably secure enough points to buy the robots permanently."
"Nah, I don't need that, a few days of rent are enough," I said.
"R-Really?" he wondered. "But what happens after the week is over?"
"After that... well, I'll do something else, don't worry."
The reason why I wasn't committing to purchasing the robots right away is because we only had a week after all.
Tomorrow is the fourth day, there's only four days left now, so it's not like there's a lot of time.
And once that time passes, and we survive and bring humanity to their new planet, the trial is over.
Therefore, thinking about things to do past these days is just foolish.
Once we returned to the city again, I glanced at all the materials I had, and decided to give some to Mechanoid Industries, leaving behind our mechs to be repaired and strengthened using them.
"I am impressed you brought so much of these valuable metals once more, Sir Zack! You're indeed a very talented hunter!"
Alfred was there again, greeting us with a pleased smile after seeing all the metals and crystals.
"Ah, without their help it wouldn't had been possible," Zack said, scratching his head in embarrassment.
"Oh yes, I see!" Alfred nodded. "I hope we can work together some more from now on, sir Blake, lady Eleanora!"
"Sure..." I smiled confidently. "Of course... We'll work together for a while now."
After all, I want to discover all their secrets too, especially why they had ruins with Neutonium Cores left behind.
He had given me a handshake too, so I made sure to give him a very strong one.
"A-Ah, yes..."
Alfred pulled out his hand nervously as I smiled at him while he walked away with the materials.
Once we left our machines there, it was time to log-out and go to sleep.
Or well, try to, there's a new guest inside my body, quite literally.
"See you tomorrow then?" Zack said.
"Sure, bye."
Once we logged out, it was finally time to address the elephant in the room.
