I Can Program My Body? - Chapter 269
269: Choosing Reward 269: Choosing Reward Tapping each reward, a corresponding description appeared on the panel.
Among the choices, the soul power and void power enhancements were straightforward, directly boosting one’s realm without any downsides.
As long as one’s realm was below Void Venerate, the reward could propel their progress to the peak, which was 1000%.
Unfortunately, Nash had already advanced to 1000% Condensation, and he still hadn’t deduced the Infinite Soul Condensing Manual, so the reward was useless to him.
Next was the Talent and Void Affinity Enhancement, which could improve either his talent or void affinity.
Among the two, he leaned more toward the Void Affinity Enhancement.
His void talent wasn’t low, as his only shortcoming was the amount of void energy he needed, coupled with his low void affinity.
Furthermore, with the [Training Module System] and the merits of the dark plane, he didn’t need to worry about his talent.
The Void Affinity Enhancement, on the other hand, could raise one affinity to SSS level.
Nash just wasn’t sure if it was enough for his void affinity to jump from D to C after being distributed evenly.
Another reward that caught his interest was the Tailored Manual.
Like the manual he’d created for Camilla, it could allow someone to train their void or soul to the theoretical limit.
Unfortunately, like the soul and void enhancements, the limit was only up to Void General Rank.
“Tsk, this is discrimination!” Nash smiled wryly.
Most of the rewards were aimed at Void Warrior to Void General ranks.
He wondered what rewards those two Void Venerates on the team could receive.
Scrolling further, he saw a Void Beast Egg with up to Tier 8 potential!
Such a rare specimen was uncommon even in the Nova Sector.
Tempted, Nash nearly chose it as a reward.
But remembering his pet, Nysr, he could only shake his head.
Besides acting cute and serving as transportation, Nysr was utterly useless in battle.
It wasn’t that its weak, but their enemy was simply too strong.
Having been born recently, Nysr was only at Tier 2, even lower than Nash’s realm at the moment.
Nash estimated that even if he could tame a void beast with Tier 9 potential, he couldn’t immediately use it for battle.
“Maybe I could create a training module system dedicated to a void beast pet?” Nash pondered, then quickly shook his head.
Creating the module system wasn’t the problem; the issue was that he would still need to create a training manual dedicated to it.
With his hands already full, Nash didn’t want to add another burden.
Perhaps in the future, when he had more time and computational power, he could create one.
For now, treating it as a house pet and transportation device was enough.
Turning to the remaining rewards, which were various Tier 6 perfect items, he scanned each option.
From the most common weapons to the rarest treasures, everything was available in perfect quality.
Tier 6 perfect items already possess the power of law.
Even if it were weakened after being turned into a runic weapon for a lower-tier individual to use, it would still be overpowered.
However, looking at the growth-type weapons next to it, Nash’s attention quickly shifted.
“These weapons…” According to what he read, these weapons have the potential to grow infinitely.
From tier 1 to tier 9, even to the higher realms!
Furthermore, such weapons couldn’t be obtained by killing dark beasts, much less bought outside.
Once chosen, it would be immediately bound to his origin space.
Even if he died, it would turn to dust, unable to be used by anyone but him.
“This is it…” Deliberating between the void affinity enhancement and the growth-type weapon, Nash ultimately chose the latter.
While the other rewards could either be achieved through his own efforts or bought, a growth-type weapon was a unique reward from the Void Administrator.
The uniqueness of his body could already allow him to advance his void affinity without relying on the Void Administrator’s blessing.
Nash also had a feeling that once he mastered all the runic commands, he could independently advance each of his void affinities, not relying on passive absorption from training.
Having decided on his reward, Nash began to browse the growth-type weapons.
From a weapon that could change into any form, enhance his soul, provide absolute defense, or boost speed, the options were vast.
Sweeping through thousands of different growth-type weapons, Nash narrowed it down to two choices: [Soul Ring (Tier 1): Enhances Soul Power by two times.
Each advancement can double the enhancement.] [Severance Knife (Tier 1): A conceptual weapon that can cut anything above its rank.
Note: Can be interfered with by ordinary materials at higher ranks.] Looking at the two growth-type weapons, Nash couldn’t decide which to pick.
The importance of his soul power was undeniable.
Without the buff from the shelter, his computational power would drop from over a hundred billion to just over a billion overnight.
However, with the Soul Ring doubling its soul amplification each rank, he could potentially have a weapon that boosted his soul power 512 times or more!
On the other hand, the Severance Knife was so overpowered it could bridge ranks on a conceptual level.
If it grew to Tier 8 rank, could he kill planetary beings like chopping vegetables?
Furthermore, its main advantage lies against dark beasts.
No matter the quality, whether mutated, lord level, or even a monarch dark beast, if the tier wasn’t two times higher than his Severance Knife, he could kill it!
As for being blocked by even the weakest material if its rank was two times higher, this depended on his skills.
From auxiliary to direct combat, Nash couldn’t choose between the two.
“Huh~ if only it wasn’t bound…” If not for that restriction, Nash would have asked the others to pick a growth-type weapon that could directly enhance his soul then give it to him.
Unfortunately, with no loopholes to exploit, he could only choose one.
“I choose the Severance Knife!” Nash finally decided through gritted teeth.
Although soul enhancement was crucial, especially for him, the lure of conceptual power was too tempting.
Since it could cut anything, could it also cut runic programs?
Elements?
Laws?
Or even the universe?
Did it have any limit?
Curious about these questions, Nash ultimately picked the Severance Knife.
Soon, a knife the length of his forearm materialized before his eyes.
With a pitch black color and mysterious lines he couldn’t fully discern, Nash couldn’t help but swing it.
Swoosh~ Easily cutting through the air resistance, its speed shocked him a little.
“Tsk~ not bad…” Clang~ Trying to cut through the ground, the Severance Knife stopped as if meeting an immovable object.
With the ground made of Tier 3 material, Nash wasn’t too surprised that he couldn’t cut through it.
“It seems I need to upgrade it first…”
