Chapter 152: CHAPTER 152 – Finally done!
A human body has blood vessels that could be elongated to the distance of 150,000 kilometers which pump blood through our whole body.
But what would happen if you had mana veins of the same length inside your body?
You would be walking a nuclear bomb that is made of mana, filled with mana, and blasts mana.
Now, it might sound absurd when you hear it this way, but yeah, everyone needs to build up mana veins in their body that could be stretched out for 150,000 kilometers.
However, one must focus on the word 'stretched'. The mana veins can be stretched out, just like they are contracted, so the one string of mana veins Alex made might be able to be stretched to 1 kilometer.
But he would still need to make such mana veins 150,000 times.
This means he will have to make close to 5 veins every single second 'if' he wants to be done with the process in 10 hours.
Another thing to note here is that not everyone builds their mana veins to be 150,000 kilometers long, matching the blood vessels.
People usually just create mana veins long enough to cover their body and have a string of mana veins in each part of their body.
But Alex was not just a normal person, he wouldn't need 5 or 6 days to complete the process and he wouldn't just skip over the fact that the mana veins need to be the same length as the blood vessels to work best.
"Argh..." Alex growled a bit for the first time after the process started as he felt his bones being strengthened.
'This is getting boring….' But inwardly he just sighed.
[I did say it would be boring for you.]
Sophia commented.
Alex just shook his head, but then….
"Argh," Alex growled again as he felt the pain intensify.
[The pain from the bones being broken and regenerated is much worse than the skin part, let's not even talk about the marrow strengthening.]
This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com
Alex had been going through the pain of having his skin strengthened for a while, but he didn't even flinch as it was bearable for him, but the bone-strengthening was putting a bit of strain on him.
'There is more…?' Alex just sighs as he focuses back on the mana veins, ignoring the pain.
'Should I increase the speed a bit?' Alex questioned.
[No.
You do not know this, but what you are doing right now would've been impossible if not for your instant regeneration, but don't try to force it.
I already warned you.]
Sophia spoke strictly and Alex just nodded his head.
He continued what he was doing without any other thoughts, he kept doing the same thing again and again.
Creating a new string of mana veins, joining them, and then creating them again.
.........….
'Just a bit more!'
Alex exclaimed as after almost 9 hours, he was finally about to be done with the creation of mana veins throughout his body.
Alex had gone through every strengthening and right now, his hair had grown long enough to flow down his shoulder as they turned a bit denser.
His face which was already perfect turned better, it was like his face was shining and throwing light on the world that seemed dark in front of his brightness.
His body which was already perfect also turned stronger.
His muscles grew contracted, and his height increased.
Alex who was already pretty high after the mana shockwave now grew higher.
He was around 187 or 188 cm when the shockwave hit, but right now he is 191 cm.
Just then Alex attached his final mana vein with the whole system he had created till now.
The system was created, and it strengthened his body, but it was not functioning yet as it was not complete.
"Combine."
Alex commanded and the next second….
*Woosh*
[Control the mana, right now.]
Sophia advised as soon as she saw Alex combining the last string to the system of the mana veins.
"Hm," Alex just hummed as he nodded his head.
He started doing what Sophia told him to.
The mana in the surroundings started to get sucked into Alex at very high speed and if not for Alex controlling the mana suction intensity, the walls of the room would've broken from the pressure the mana rushing toward Alex would put on them.
Alice, Ann, and Noctura who were sitting in the hall room watching something on the TV also felt something before they felt the mana in their surroundings drain.
(Unlike what Alex had thought, Alice, Ann, and Noctura were not actually worried about him, they knew that he was stronger than anyone in this world right now.
It would've been a different case if this continued for days, after all, days without contact with them was not something Alex would do without something really serious.)
If not for them being SSS-ranked raiders, they wouldn't even have been able to stop the mana inside their body from leaving.
Both Alice and Ann also used their mana to protect Noctura hurriedly.
They knew from the power of the suction that Noctura wouldn't be able to resist, so they didn't even ask and directly helped her.
One would not die with their mana being drained, but they would sure feel many side effects of having mana completely drained.
"What's happening?!" Alice exclaimed as she jumped off the couch and took an attacking stance, and so did Ann and Noctura.
"This is not normal…." Ann spoke as she and Alice used their control over mana to stop the suction to pull the mana out of Noctura.
"Should we inform Alex…...?" Alice hesitantly asked.
Ann who heard her words also had a look of hesitation on her face.
She wanted to do the same as Alice, but she was hesitating.
'What if it was nothing major…...?'
'That would mean that we disturbed him without an urgent situation….'
These thoughts were going through their heads, making them hesitate.
By now, they turned to Alex for every doubt they had. They thought that Alex knew everything, so it was hard for them to think something with Alex not being around anymore.
But just as they were hesitating on what to do while maintaining the battle-ready posture, the mana suction that they felt suddenly vanished.
All of this happened in seconds.
"Don't worry, it was me."
Then they heard a voice reverberating through the room.
They could not tell where the voice came from, it was like listening to 8D music, but the music played in every direction at the same time, instead of switching from one side to another.
But they just sighed and went back to what they were doing.
'So, it was him…' X3
The three of them thought with a sigh.
Although the voice sounded deeper, stronger, and commanding, they could tell who the owner of the voice was.
'Just what are you doing…...?'
Alice looked toward the gym as she muttered inwardly.
