Chapter 109 New Possibilities of Gene Path

Awakening.

From the insights, Alex came to know that there will come an event where all the people of Earth would be involved in this Gods, Blesseds, otherworldly deities, and so on stuff.

There's no escaping this and everyone will be given an opportunity to survive through the means of awakening.

Just like how Alex had a system and the Blesseds had one too, everyone will awaken this system thing and as per their body constitution, develop the required attributes and earn a certain class.

Alex didn't know about himself since his path was much different than the rest, but the Blesseds that have a system, they have been fully awakened.

Once a person gets their attributes and class, they would be considered ready to start their survival journey.

It was basically similar to being thrown into a RPG and made to level up like crazy to survive and fight enemies.

It has apparently been happening since ages but the 'Awakeneds' were small in number and hidden from the main society, protecting the world from the potential danger.

The general public was never in the know of it and people continued on with their lives. However, now things were going to change.

The reason was due to otherworldly beings attacking Earth.

Why they would attack wasn't known by Alex yet but this would be far more dangerous than the dungeon portals that opened up.

However, with such a great calamity also came great rewards. People had the chance of leveling up, getting stronger, and eventually ascending.

Gods would favour such strong people further and one could probably become a God as well?

This thing was something Alex didn't know of and just made a rough guess.

Awakening should happen in a few decades and apparently, most of the hidden major powers of the world were already aware of it.

They were preparing for this for quite a long time and definitely would be the ones to benefit from it the most.

They were already profiting quite a lot and this would just increase in future.

One day in future, a change would occur and everybody would awaken, until then, the ways to awaken were quite limited.

At present, one could awaken through the blessings of Gods. This was difficult but not too much. The other method was to awaken through an artifact. This is available only with some ancient families and is very difficult to find and use. The last method is to simply go into a dungeon.

One should know, finding a dungeon wasn't easy. Portals weren't visible this easily and the chance of awakening through blessings of God were much higher than the other two methods.

In any case, Alex's priority now was to get as strong as possible and form as many connections too.

At present, Alex was jotting down a plan to survive through this. He specifically came to this industrial complex as it would serve as a proper base later on.

Gene cultivation was getting slower and it seemed that Alex had to start purchasing items from the system shop.

The system would guide him if he ever felt blocked somewhere and was a good thing to have.

At present, it was basically asking Alex buy prayer stuff.

Alex had no idea what to do with it and had kept it on hold. He planned to do it for a bit longer as he now focused on things he could do to improve his Gene cultivation.

Starting from the very basics, Genes are found everywhere. They are not only found in abundance but all beings share some or the other parts of their Genes with each other.

For example, a human and a banana have roughly 60% of similar genes. In this manner, what if…

Alex suddenly had an epiphany.

What if, he tried to look at not his own Genes, but focused on the Genes of other organisms and then slowly progressed at himself.

Looking at the Genes of a small bacteria wasn't a problem as it was a unicellular living being. Even simpler were the viruses and Alex could somehow end up gaining something from it.

He couldn't delve deep into his own genes, but that wouldn't be a problem if he looked into bacteria.

To find a bacteria, Alex didn't even need to go anywhere.

He simply looked at his hand and stared at it with full focus. Skin had a diverse community of microorganisms and it would be of quite some help.

As Alex focused, with time, his vision had a change of view and he seemed to be getting sucked into the micro realm.

His eyes began shimmering and he went in a daze.

In Alex's vision, he was slowly looking at tiny wriggling dots which eventually turned into unicellular bacteria and then within them, Alex managed to strike where it was hot and finally doing a strand of coded genes.

[Ding!]

[Host has looked straight at a coded gene for the first time. Handing out rewards…]

The system's message made Alex happy.

Alex quickly took a mental note of the coded genes and once was done, broke his focus from it.

His surroundings had become dark by now and it seems he had spent a good amount of time focusing on the genes.

Alex checked the reward from the system and it was an Advanced Guide to Gene Cultivation.

Flipping through its pages, Alex got one shock after another.

He learnt that he could absorb Genes and get Gene points!

Basically, had Alex somehow managed to swallow the coded strand, he would've gotten Gene points for it and progressed in cultivation.

With this, did it mean that Alex could anything and everything and accumulate Gene points?

[Affirmative.]

'Oh sweet,' thought Alex.

[But host should remember, overloading on useless Genes and Gene points will harm host.]

Not so cool now, is it? Alex thought and sighed.

Just when he thought he gained something, he seemed to have lost it at that instant.

But no worries, things were still quite good and doable.

Gene Cultivation seemed similar to a RPG progression fantasy. You slay monsters, you use the monster cores, and you become stronger.

Now, it depended on what could be done with monster cores but in Alex's case, it was fixed that he had to swallow them.

He could just swallow the genes in it, but that was nigh impossible to do at this stage.

He had little to no knowledge of anything.

Maybe in the future he could get some ability to harvest just the important gene strands from an organism and swallow it and get the ability of that animal.

The new book on Gene Cultivation had given Alex a new path to walk on. He had finally learnt that it wasn't all the boring meditations he had to do. He could go outside and still become strong!

Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm

Not just outside, even if he stayed inside his house and consumed the right Genes like how he consumed meals, he could become really strong.

Hitting the gym, eating lots of proteins, all of this seemed like a useless thing to Alex.

He could easily gain strength if he swallowed the Gene strand responsible for providing strength from some animal.

Say if it was a boar, if Alex ate the right Gene, he'd have a strength like that. But if he ate the wrong one, he might end up becoming a mindless charging head-on beast.

This was a double edged sword and he needed to be really careful with his way forwards. There was a lot of risk involved.

Whatever the case, at least Alex found the path he needed to walk on and didn't need to roam around in search of finding a way to increase his strength.

Alex had a lot of testing to do and he also needed to consume lots of animals or even monsters.

This meant Alex would need to visit dungeons and clear them. The rewards in the dungeons weren't the one available after clearance of a floor, but the monsters and beasts themselves.

He had no idea where dungeons were or how to find them, but he did know of two stupid chuunis that surprisingly had become Blesseds.

If he got his hands on them, maybe their Gods could guide Alex towards a dungeon?

As far as Alex knew from the insights of the world, dungeons, if found, were kept highly secretive unless absolutely necessary.

There were classes to dungeons and a normal human would have difficulty clearing even the lowest G class whereas an athlete or trained professional might end up passing through the F class dungeon.

Alex just had to clear one dungeon and a snowball effect would arise. Things should then be easy and he could easily become a strong being.

Now, he first had to find those two chuunis and since he didn't have the means, he had to seek help.

His help being Nicole herself.

With great ambitions in his heart and a new plan, Alex left the industrial complex at night, ready to walk on his new path and towards the new possibilities.

The Gene Path was a vast abyss and Alex had somehow managed to find the edge of it.

Slowly and steadily, Alex could now sink deeper into the abyss and stare at what's in it.

Looking at the brilliant moonlight in the night sky, Alex smiled and said softly:

"This should be fun."
