Although the rewards this time are good, Bai Yi still feels like something is missing.
It’s not that she’s ungrateful, it’s just that she truly feels something’s off.
After recounting the rewards received, Bai Yi discovers the issue.
This time, the extra rewards from the promotion, in terms of quantity, are no surprise—they’ve been multiplied based on those few extra completion conditions of hers.
But she hasn’t seen any amplification from the 13 Area Cores.
"It can’t be that there’s no extra progress amplification reward for the most important Area Core...
Or they never expected anyone to obtain extra Area Cores, so there’s no corresponding reward set?
Or perhaps I’m overthinking it, and there are hidden benefits I haven’t discovered yet?"
However, her current promotion isn’t complete yet, so Bai Yi decides to temporarily set aside her investigation of this.
No matter the situation, it’s impossible for her to receive or find the corresponding extra reward right now; relatively speaking, her superpower’s promotion is more important!
In the promotion requirements for superpowers, one is to allow five different Wisdom Species to dominate the ecology of an area; when she first promoted, this requirement wasn’t harsh for her.
The Insect Swarm, witch, and Sea Son have already completed more than half, and the rest were completed with the Mechanical Brain Worm and now the Beastman.
As for the second requirement, the three large-scale constructions she needed to create were partially completed when the task was assigned, with You accomplishing a quota.
The rest was fulfilled later by the Portal Giant Tree, brain machine, and Heroic Spirit Hall, overshooting the task completion.
By this time, she’s long been able to proceed with the promotion!
She delayed until now merely to take advantage of promotion permissions; now with the permissions in hand, Bai Yi hesitates no more.
[Superpower Level Breakthrough Complete, can affect Tier Five → ? targets, skill effects increased, skill information editing acquired]
[Note: Tier Six Promotion Permission *1 has taken effect, this promotion will not cause the Lord to fall asleep, you have gained extra superpower permissions, you now possess 80% of superpower permissions, Tier Six Promotion Permission *1 has been destroyed]
The feeling of promotion remains; under the effect of the Tier Six permissions, this time’s promotion causes no discomfort at all.
Feeling her connection with her superpower deepening, she senses her soul seemingly climbing to infinitely high places, almost... almost...
Almost like ascending from low-dimensional to high-dimensional!
Bai Yi suddenly thought of this description.
In her perspective, it seemed she was overlooking the "earth," seeing her Avatars connected by invisible forces.
Like strands... of hemp ropes extending out, also converging towards infinitely high places, which is to say, gathering behind her.
But just as she wanted to turn around and see the point where they intersected, a force suddenly blocked her, forcefully slamming her back to the "ground," regaining her sense of self.
Didn’t expect this promotion to have a twist...
What was that vision I just saw?"
After regaining clarity, her mind starts recalling the rapidly blurring vision, everything felt like a dream.
Unusually, these memories left no record in the network, even her memory abilities that theoretically wouldn’t forget are ineffective against this vision.
Instead, after some struggle, the memory becomes increasingly blurry, like a real dream...
"Forget it, since it appeared and was forgotten, and there’s no sense of danger, I’ll just wait for it to appear next time before dealing with it...
For now, let me see what new abilities I’ve gained~"
Directly sensing her superpower, Bai Yi quickly finds her new abilities from the enhanced ones.
Information editing, directly editing information in genes?"
Truth Research Institute: The institute welcomes every Wisdom Species to join, enthusiastic about pursuing "truth" in all aspects, even desiring to study everything, only to exhaust world truths, but the ideas are beautiful, while reality is not the same at all, the truths pursued by the Seeker Scholars are often quite abstract, yet unexpectedly, they can draw power from it...

[Note on the note: Damn, reverse amplification technique! I encountered it once last time! Reverses all amplification effects! It’s always annoying!]
