Supreme Human System

Chapter 102: Time Chamber

After one hour of work in the Kitchen, Kritos got the time to free himself.

Due to his current condition, Kritos grandfather instructed him to not cultivate and practice.

Thus, Kritos decided to wander around the city and enjoy life. Besides, he was pretty famous in the city after the Challenger League.

Kritos heard from his mother that the Princess and Royal caretaker of the princess will depart from Rewa city today. So, most of the high-rank officials of the three clans will personally escort them to the border of Rewa city . 

Kritos don't care about it. They are in a different league compared to him.

It is better to roam around the city. Moreover, he wanted to see the faces of those people who always mocked him. 

"I always know, I'm special!" Kritos mumbles.

Sometimes, the feeling of being special is something good. However, it also affects the personality of an individual.

All beings once in their life had thought of being a special existence.

It is because the only person who knows everything about you isyou.

You know every secret.

You know every desire.

You know every thought and sin and complex motivation.

You are your own greatest protagonist in your own epic story, the most fascinating sociological study in your own history. Everyone else in your life is but a bit player in the magnum opus that is YOU.

Nonetheless, Kritos always thought he was special. Maybe at some point, his life was hard. 

But now, Kritos previous mentality is emerging again.

While he was strolling around the city, Kritos thought about his life in the city and life in the village.

In Kritos village, life revolved around the farming year, with the seasons for plowing, sowing, reaping, mowing, harvesting, etc, succeeding each other. Men did most of the fieldwork, women generally take care of the poultry and the dairy, made butter and cheese, brewed ale, spun wool and flax, and the whole family helped to bring in their own harvest. 

Children would help out as soon as they were old enough to make themselves useful, usually from about seven years old. Most Peasants were landless so they tended to work on someone's land for food in exchange for the labor work, but the amount of land they held was more important in the village.

When it comes to your status in the village, it all depends on the amount of land you have. 

In Contrast to his Village, the Rewa city felt like a restrain. 

These were walled cities all around the city, organized in an irregular concentric arrangement, with the poorest houses near the periphery, the middle classes closer to the center, and the oligarchy in the prime real estate. The city also had a large plaza associated with a large municipal building or palace, where the seat of city officials was located. In this plaza, it was where the agricultural products of the rural hinterlands were sold, and where festivities were celebrated. There was also another plaza, dedicated to the city's main Temple, symbolizing a God.

Most people don't believe in God. In a world where you can attain strength, extend your longitude, God is just a way to control and discipline the masses.

Just like the commoner, Kritos also believed God exists and watches our actions.

But as you make progress in the Cultivation, you will stop worshiping God and will learn the truth of the world.

In a cultivator's eyes, only Saint Realm Experts or Supreme mages are god.

Suddenly, Kritos saw a Merchant selling a low-rank pill.

It was quite rare to see someone openly selling pills.

He doesn't know about the exact function of this pill, But it must have the lowest efficiency by looking at the degraded structure and dry color.

Kritos doesn't have much knowledge about alchemy but he could compare it to the pills he received from Captain Mitchell which were perfect in structure and had a bright look.

"Anyway, this pill would sell at a remarkable amount." 

A place where there is not a single alchemist. The price of a pill would go on an astonishing amount. Even people like him could only buy a single bottle containing this pill with his 300,000 Silvers.

This is the reason why Alchemists are respected in every place. Merely a bottle of low-efficiency pill could sell for a large amount.

Kritos couldn't think of how much they earn every day.

Alchemists are living treasures that produce wealth limitlessly.

Kritos recalls the amount of SP he had now. 

'Hope it will be sufficient to create a good talent in Alchemy,' Kritos thought about his current 30 SP and a smile emerged on his face.

He already had felt the decrease of his cultivation speed in each Rank. It was low but it was.

Depending on his current speed, it would take almost one month to break through to the Foundation Realm, if he cultivates without cultivation resources.

Likewise, it will take him almost one year to break through to the Core Realm without any resources.

So, he needed resources to shorten his cultivation time. However, a solo adventure like him would have a hard time obtaining money and resources for his cultivation.

It was one of the reasons why most cultivators joined sects or an association.

However, Kritos doesn't want to be restricted. Besides due to the System his achievement would be unusual, which would create suspicions about him.

Let's think if Kritos created a new skill, people in the sect would think he is a genius. If he created two new skills consecutively, people would think he is a monster. However, if he created skills like this, the whole sect would think he is cheating. 

At that time, they will pursue him to death to learn his secret.

Hence, Joining a sect or anything is not an option. He has to wander around the world alone before becoming a powerhouse.

On the other hand, The problem of cultivation resources could be solved by becoming an alchemist.

It is hard for others to become an Alchemist but for him, it would take only time. 

Moreover, sometimes pills are a must to strengthen their foundation and it would also help in his body cultivation.

Other than Alchemist, Kritos couldn't think of any other profession to quickly earn a large amount of money.

Only Blacksmith could compare to Alchemist in terms of earning money, but it is troublesome and needs a large amount of patience.

"Only 4 hours and 36 minutes remain before System would open."

He was excited to create a talent after a long period. 

Kritos assumes the System has shut down to update its version like last time. So, he was happy to see the upcoming upgrade.

On the System tag, he couldn't access the Time chamber function and store function.

The system told him that both of them are fortunate for him.

The system doesn't say much about 'Time Chamber', but it was related to going on so-called Virtual World.

According to System, This virtual world is a System-simulated representation of a world with specific spatial and physical characteristics, and users of virtual worlds interact with each other via representations of themselves called "avatars."

Kritos was shocked to learn of this type of world which is created by a system called Ultimate Computer. In a sense, Kritos could live in the Virtual World.

Despite learning this, Kritos was amazed that his system would provide him access to this world.

Moreover, the user could create their own avatar and can select any race.

At that time, he asked System, who created this amazing ultimate System.

Its answer was the complete opposite to Kritos' expectation, System told him that no one knows the exact answer to this question.

Nonetheless, due to this, the virtual world was fair to everyone. It treats everyone equally. There was no case of favoring someone due to their status.

Plus, every person is immortal in this world. Each time they are killed by someone, they will only lose their virtual strength.

Virtual Strength is different from real strength which is present in Reality. 

An ultimate computer implements virtual worlds (or networks of computers) that simulate an environment. Somebut not all of the entities in this environment act under the direct control of Ultimate System AI. Because several such people can affect the same environment simultaneously, the world is said to be shared or multi-user. The environment continues to exist and develop internally (at least to some degree) even when there are no people interacting with it; this means it is persistent.

'But didn't it waste everyone's time with no gain? Rather than going to an imaginary world, it is better to create it. Maybe after reaching the peak of this world. I would try to have fun in this so-called Virtual World.' Kritos internally thought to himself.

However, Kritos doesn't understand why the system tags it as Time Chamber rather than Virtual world?

"I can only wait for the System to answer my doubts."

Many of you have doubts about the Virtual game in the Cultivation world, but you will understand the reason for it in the later chapters.
