The Growth of a God
Chapter 780 - 14: Ushering in a New Era!
"You... you... you..."
Staring in astonishment at the Divine Power Crystal on Aten’s claw, Batis, being half a God, naturally knew what that was.
It was a crystallization of Divine Power, a scepter capable of changing the world.
"How on earth did you do it? That’s not scientific at all!"
Even Batis, the Genie of the Divine Lamp, started clamoring about "unscientific" matters.
It was conceivable what kind of impact the birth of this Divine Power Crystal would have on this world.
"Unscientific?"
"No, it is very scientific!"
As a former God, Aten calmly turned and said.
Only at this moment was Aten’s current form fully exposed to Batis’s sight.
Presently, Aten possessed a body more enormous than that of the beetle couple, with more terrifying Power.
The massive horns of the longhorn beetle on his head shimmered with a golden hue.
Paired with the open elytra on his back, it gave a particularly splendid impression.
No one seeing Aten’s appearance from the front would possibly link him to a researcher without the strength to truss a chicken.
Yet, reality was indeed filled with contrasts like this.
Aten, with his massive physique, became a researcher relying precisely on various Implants from the Mountain and Sea Civilization.
First was the [Sub brain Type·Brain Computer] directly connected to his spine.
It endowed Aten with astonishing memory and learning capabilities, allowing him to absorb the accumulated knowledge of the Mountain and Sea Civilization of millions of years in a short time.
In his daily life, Aten enjoyed conducting simulated experiments in his virtual "Memory Palace" to validate various theories and craft processes.
Next was the transformed tentacle on Aten’s forehead — [Assistive Multifunctional Neural Prosthetic].
The tentacles of insect organisms already had highly sensitive nerves and served as sensory organs for perception in most insects.
Inheriting the advantages of the beetle couple, Aten’s tentacles were even more exceptionally sensitive.
With the modification of these tentacles, Aten successfully transformed them into special organs more dexterous than human hands.
The sensitivity of tentacles, the resilience of an octopus, combined with dexterity far surpassing fingers...
These multifunctional neural prosthetics could operate various precise and minute instruments, and could even transform to a certain extent, interfacing with various types of prosthetic slots.
Finally, and most critically, was the Implant — [Miniature Full-Function Simulation Module].
Though regarded as an Implant, it was essentially a special surgery Aten performed to comprehensively modify himself.
Imitating the [Skeleton Factory] inherent in the fourth generation of Skeletons.
Aten underwent a similar modification process on his own body, utilizing some techniques regarding High dimensional Expansion.
From the moment the modification was completed, Aten could manufacture various devices and models from his body, resembling a true insect factory.
When necessary, Aten could even truly establish a biological factory through a "pupation" method.
From this perspective, from the moment [Miniature Full-Function Simulation Module] was completed, Aten already became a walking military factory.
Any tool or weapon he desired, Aten could directly produce.
Fortunately, Aten had little interest in combat or War.
Rather than producing various weapons for slaughter, Aten preferred making experimental tools and devices.
"To study the laws of the universe’s operations, summarizing the essence of the cosmos’ functioning..."
"Then use these laws and essence to craft various magical Artifacts and devices; that is definitely true ’science’!"
When Aten said this, his expression remained very indifferent.
However, Batis, having watched Aten grow up since childhood, could see the real emotions from the slightly restless tentacles of the other party.
"The Sun is the initial energy of this world, intrinsically possessing its purest Attributes."
"I merely wanted to trace back this process, allowing the Sun’s light to manifest in its most pristine, original state."
Undoubtedly, no one could understand the essence of the Sun more than Aten, the once "Primordial Sun."
Though Aten was no longer the High dimensional existence he once was.
But with his profound understanding of the essence of the Sun’s operation, as long as he had the necessary tools and instruments, it was not hard to replicate and reproduce the Solar Divine Power.
This was the harvest the High dimensional perspective brought to Aten.
It was also an important reason why most Gods were geniuses compared to ordinary beings.
Because besides a normal biological perspective, they naturally possessed the ability to overlook the lower-dimensional world from a higher dimension.
"Alright! Even if such a ridiculous thing does align with the definition of science..."
"Then what exactly do you intend to do with such a tumultuous commotion?"
"When clearly, if you just wished to me, no matter what wish, I could fulfill it for you!"
Glaring angrily at Aten, Batis was telling the truth.
Since the beetle couple handed the Nether Lamp to Aten, the usage rights of the remaining two wishes were naturally transferred to him.
Unfortunately, Aten had never made any demands of Batis, let alone made any wishes to her.
"It’s different, this is different..."
"Fulfilling a past wish by one’s own hands and cheating by using your power are two entirely different things!"
Shaking his head and denying Batis’s words, Aten continued nonchalantly.
"As for the reason I created the Divine Power Crystal, it’s quite simple."
"I want to see if the Power of the Gods can ultimately be mastered by mortals."
From ancient times, Aten originally believed the Gods were the supreme beings in this universe.
Until he learned about the inevitable emergence of the [Ascension Ladder], he then started questioning whether the Gods were always superior.
In the current era, mortals could elevate to the Divine Throne through the [Ascension Ladder] and become true Gods.
So what about the next era?
Could mortals possess Power to rival the Gods without becoming them?
Aten was curious and hopeful for such a future.
Were he to be fortunate enough to become a Pioneer of such a future, it couldn’t be better.
After all, Aten once had the opportunity to create an era, but eventually lost it due to Ra’s choice.
"You... you’re simply crazy!"
Staring blankly at the confident Aten, Batis could only mutter softly in the end.
"If pioneering an era is considered crazy, then I willingly become such a madman!"
Gently raising the Divine Power Crystal on his claw.
The two tentacles on Aten’s forehead proactively approached, starting to further modify the Divine Power Crystal.
Buzzing sounds...
Soon, the brilliance on the surface of the Divine Power Crystal gradually dissipated, and its form was completely shaped into a substantial material gear.
