Into The Portal: Monster Invasion

Chapter 332: Miles’s Superpower!

Everything your eyes see is the product of energy! Malcolm said wisely.

Before I further explain, you have to understand this, everything is formed of energy, and everything can be formed from energy. If you have enough energy and mastery, you can create a universe and become its god. Of course, it is just a hyperbole metaphor, but you get what I am trying to say. Merlins voice reverberated in his ear.

Such pure energy. It is the purest energy I have ever seen. Vals shocked face appeared in front of him.

Energy is the source of everything.

Our energy is washed by our ancient genes, that is why we can only use one element while you dont have any.

You dont have an ancient gene, thus you can never have an element.

Purest energy!

I couldnt find you with my powers, as if you are part of nature!

Voices of memories started to reverberate in Miles's mind. Although he was still in pain, he was in a state of enlightenment. His brain was working at full power on that small inspiration. He wanted to catch it, but it was too ethereal.

I was thinking wrong from the start. Why would I try to stop energy from transforming into lightning? When I can transform it myself!

Miles moved his last energy to cover his body with a thin layer. The energy was so thin, it couldnt even last half a second against the violent lightning cracking around his body, but something unexpected happened the next second.

The thin layer didnt get destroyed by the violent lightning at all. Instead, its color changed into purple, and it started to move restlessly. Voice of a thousand birds chirping reverberated in the tree bark, as Miles's body got covered with lightning.

One would expect that the thin layer of lightning would be destroyed, but it got stronger and stronger as it started to cover the violent lightning that was destroying Miles's body. Miles, who had lost his hope, looked at his body in excitement. His energy, by consuming the other lightning, was getting stronger. In no time at all, he replenished all his energy.

This is amazing! Miles exclaimed in surprise. Coin will give me an earful. his mood dampened in the next. He, with no other choice, turned Coin off when he thought he was going to die.

Miles groaned as he reached out to pick Coin. He pressed the button and activated it. As soon as the screen light lit up, Coins voice reverberated in his mind, MILES!

I am okay, buddy. Miles smiled.

Why did you turn me off, you fool? He shouted.

I had to. Otherwise, you would do something stupid. Miles answered.

Hmph. Coin snorted and asked, What happened?

At the last second, I realized my energy is similar to pure energy in the air. I was trying to understand the key to transforming pure energy into lightning energy so I could stop lightning from destroying my body. But later I realized, I could turn my energy into lightning instead. Miles summarized. He was still shocked by the outcome. He wasnt expecting to survive this ordeal.

That is amazing buddy! Coin exclaimed excitedly. So, does that mean, your energy can take the form of every element?

I thought the same, but even transforming it to lightning was too hard for me. There were many reasons why I was able to achieve what I did today. Miles shook his head. Miles could think of many things that allowed him to change his energy to lightning.

Firstly, lightning was the element he had the most contact with. Ever since he found the Maroon armor, almost two years ago, Miles was carrying it with him until it got destroyed. Even when it got destroyed, its lightning kept him awake and protected him.

Secondly, he was healed by Xavic a lot. Although the attribute of Xavics lightning was different, essentially two were the same element. Miles already felt different sides of the lightning element. Especially after Xavic advanced and separated his superpower into the two attributes, his stunning and healing lightning felt different too. Increasing Miles's understanding of the said element.

Thirdly, Alex. As the incarnation of Lightning God, Alex had assimilated the element and could use its many forms. Although he was using its destructive nature mostly, Alex could indeed use other forms too. Miles was spending most of his time with Alex ever since they signed up for the academy.

Lastly, being threatened by a deadly attack. Humans were adaptive creatures and had amazing survival instincts. In a do-or-die situation such as this, Miless whole being was working to save him from this predicament. With the experiences and insight he gained throughout his journey, he found a solution. But it didnt mean he would be able to learn all the elements just because his energy was pure.

It took him so much to learn just the lightning, and he was extremely lucky.

Miles looked at the wounds on his body. They were already closing thanks to the energy he absorbed from the lightning which was destroying him not so long ago. With the help of his regeneration skill, he was getting better already.

Oh, what is this? Miles said in surprise.

What happened? Coin asked.

My strength has increased. I feel much stronger than when I left the stronghold. Miles said as he felt the explosive strength in his muscles. He couldnt gauge the exact value, but he could tell the difference.

Must be lightning, stimulating your muscles. Coin opined. Miles was thinking the same.

Hmm. Although I almost died, I gained two things from this adventure. Haha. Miles laughed.

Three. Coin reported, Did you forget the orb?

Right. Lets test it. Miles said and left the tree bark. He held the gray orb in his hand. It had a metallic sheen on it, while a silhouette of a horse was swimming inside. Miles willed it and energy filled the orb, while Coin supplied the electricity. The metallic orb melted and took the shape of a horse in front of Miles.

Mount! Miles exclaimed in surprise. He saw this type of orb for the first time when they encountered the alien. Now he had his own.

The metallic horse looked like machinery built with fine iron. Its joints, its head and mane, everything was made of metal, but it could act like a horse just fine. The one alien had was a jellyfish, while his was a horse. The only common thing was, they were both metals.

While Miles was looking at the majestic horse standing two meters tall, the horse walked toward Miles and patted its nose on Miless cheek. Miles could feel hot air coming out of its nose. So real! Miles said as he patted its gray mane. It looked so cool.

High-Tier mount! Great harvest! Miles exclaimed as he hopped on top of the mount. It was just like a real one. With Miles's simple command it started to gallop in the direction he willed.

I will return for the queen, but for now I have to go back, Miles said and started to ride towards the stronghold.
