Brian sat cross-legged in the basement, whispering to himself.
What about ten years?
It was like a snowball rolling downhill.
Once his strength reached a certain level, he could form his own force to help him accomplish his obsessions.
The more obsessions he accomplished, the stronger he could become.
The stronger he was, the wider the range of his influence would radiate.
You see, during this process, Brian’s force would be like a volcano accumulating power, ready to erupt completely when the time came, reaching across the whole Federation and even globally.
By then, what wouldn’t be able to keep up was probably the speed at which Brian collected obsessions, not the speed at which he accomplished them.
When that time came...
How many digits would the Gift Energy he earned daily amount to?
The more Brian thought about it, the greater the upward curve of his mouth.
From last September to this September...
In just one year, he had the invincible demeanor that could suppress a major country on his own.
Life is as lonely as snow.
After fantasizing about dominating the globe alone and becoming a hero of his country, Brian began to try mastering complete control over his own body.
He didn’t want to inadvertently kill innocent people because of himself.
The change this time was too significant.
Even with the talent of Body Control, Brian still took about an hour to completely control his scattering Biological Field, allowing him to retract and exert it at will.
The only problem was probably the external change.
Brian naturally had pale white skin, the type that could thrive on appearance alone.
Now, his skin had gained a jade-like hue that seemed to radiate light. Staring into his eyes gave one the illusion that they could emit light. Looking at his hair, one would feel that the black strands could swallow up the light, creating a strange visual effect.
Even though Brian had contained all his internal changes, he still couldn’t suppress this bodily otherworldliness.
Unless he controlled his body to cut off that instinct to devour surrounding free energy, this sensory perception would persist.
But suppressing that instinct...
Brian gave it a try, and it was as uncomfortable as holding his breath.
"I still need to get used to this..."
"Once my Force Field and Heart Domain combine to form a Life Magnetism, I probably won’t have to worry about these things..."
Brian touched his brow.
He couldn’t quite grasp his current situation himself.
Judging by his previous performance, his current strength was probably enough to beat up his father-in-law Dean with no problem.
However, his Biological Field and Spiritual Consciousness hadn’t shown any signs of merging.
Instead, the brow that was originally fostering a "Domain" had now transformed into something resembling a door.
Behind that door was the bizarre dimensional space Brian had experienced before.
In that space, the form of Brian’s consciousness was a very powerful yet dark existence...
No, that’s not right.
Powerful wasn’t the word.
If he had been powerful, he wouldn’t have been pushed back by those Big Octopuses’ Spiritual Shock.
To be precise, it was tainted.
Thinking back to how the Saint from White Elephant Country almost lost control with just one look at him, Brian let out a smile.
Serves the old codger right.
It was because of the existence of the Dragons and the Big Octopuses that Brian was still uncertain about how deep the waters of this world were.
Otherwise, he would have turned into a hero of his country by now and gone to settle the score with that living Buddha for the scheme against him!
"So, that mysterious dimension is a space where only consciousness can exist, and all Heart Domains appear there?"
Brian withdrew the fingers pressing on his brow.
His current situation was indeed bizarre.
The physical strength had increased tremendously, with abilities resembling energy attacks, far more exaggerated than any Third Rank Life.
At least the entity titled Dawn Knight from before probably wouldn’t be a match for him.
On the level of Spiritual Strength, Brian had achieved a magnitude of 1.5.
A simple Air Control talent in his hands had turned into a celestial weapon that could influence weather phenomena within a ten-thousand-meter radius, freely controlling wind, rain, thunder, and lightning like a walking disaster.
After such bizarre accumulations,...
Brian realized that there were no signs of a Life Magnetism developing on him.
"Eh, keep observing. If it doesn’t work out, I’ll just capture a Third Rank Life and lock it up for dissection. Also, I need to start looking into that tough old man’s situation. With my current power, suppressing the organization he is part of shouldn’t be a problem. It’s also time to demand the method of safe procreation from their organization..."
Brian couldn’t help but pull down his underpants.
The majority of his internal structure had turned into a crystalline form that could store massive amounts of Energy Particles.
Luckily, his ’little brother’ remained loyal and unchanged.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t know how to explain it to Susan.
And that wasn’t even what worried Brian the most.
He was more concerned that if his ’little brother’ had changed too, whether the bullets he fired would be actual bullets or Particle Cannons.
The more Brian thought about it, the more melancholic he felt.
He shook his head, "Being human is tough; never mind, I’ll take it one step at a time. Let’s deal with the Electric Eel first."
The basement was a mess at the moment.
Fortunately, after Brian’s breakthrough in Spiritual Strength, he developed telekinesis-like abilities that allowed him to affect reality through his spirit.
This Spiritual Telekinesis wasn’t very expansive, but it did cover about a hundred meters, and though not very strong, adding up to a few dozen kilograms, was enough to simply clean up the mess in the basement.
