Chapter 2134 Omniscience
After his first experiment with Voyager, a full month had passed since Minos' breakthrough, and three more experiments with the robot had taken place.
After bringing Voyager back to life, Minos and his group discovered much about this creature and how the chaotic energy of the giant bones worked upon it.
Contrary to what the group had hoped, Voyager didn't return to normal after three experiments. It had improved a lot but was currently only at 70% of its potential.
The more Minos used his innate ability to help Voyager, the more resistant its artificial body seemed to be to the chaotic energy manipulated by Emperor Stuart.
Fortunately, this didn't seem to be Voyager's incompatibility with the chaotic energy of this world but rather a resistance to outside help. The technique developed by Minos' group, based on the achievements of the Ancient Folk, had proven very effective and helped Voyager absorb more energy itself.
When it came to absorbing energy itself, things had been different, and Voyager had become increasingly independent of Minos' power.
No longer in danger, it had already begun to work with scientists of various professions in the Spatial Kingdom, helping the groups there to deal with the alien technologies.
It didn't remember anything from the past but had something like muscle memory. When dealing with some artifacts, it was easy to understand how to use them, disassemble and reassemble them, and talk about the logic behind them.
In just 5 days of working with his people's technologies alongside Minos' people, Voyager had already begun to make contributions to the Black Plain Empire!
Everyone in the Spatial Kingdom was positively amazed at what was happening, this unexpected addition to the already contributing empire.
Considering the speed with which Voyager was dealing with his people's artifacts, many were already imagining what it would be like in the future when its contributions would affect the empire.
Moreover, after living with the creature for a month, everyone saw how obedient it was, no matter how much hostile forces created it.
Concerns about it diminished, and more and more people in the Spatial Kingdom trusted it.
But it wasn't foolish, blind trust. Minos had warned his people that Voyager would be one of them as long as the enemies didn't reach the Spiritual World. But if that happened, it would most likely revert to the control of the Mechanical Emperor.
It wasn't the best scenario, but having Voyager with them for a few years was better than having nothing at all!
So, the people in the Spatial Kingdom took advantage of the current situation.
Meanwhile, Minos returned to Dry City this morning, finally back home after his last breakthrough seclusion.
...
Back in his city, Minos closed his eyes and felt the morning breeze.
But in the midst of it, he heard many voices in his mind, as well as the powers of the people around his city and empire.
'Please, Your Majesty, protect us from the aliens...' He heard a sweet little girl's voice as he separated the prayers of each of his worshippers so that he could understand each part.
With the powers that came from the Infinite Dream, Minos could listen to more than a thousand different people at once without getting confused, understand each request, and even give answers if he wanted to.
He smiled as he listened to his worshippers and felt the power of faith in his body being stimulated and growing.
Before his retreat to reach level 91, Minos had absorbed the power of faith from his four idols scattered throughout the empire.
That had given him a lot of energy for his advancement, but not only that, it had also given him a better understanding of how the power of faith worked.
The power of faith united people. In particular, it enabled the worshipped figure to hear his worshippers' prayers and requests. Not only that, when he reached a good level of the power of faith, Minos could even use the power of his worshipers to fight opponents.
In a way, when the power of faith was absorbed and stimulated, a connection was established between the worshipped being and the worshippers. From then on, the worshipped being could either temporarily absorb the power of its worshippers to use as it wished or even lend its powers and temporarily possess its worshippers.
That was not an easy thing to do. For now, Minos felt that he could only increase his powers by 5%. But he felt that as he absorbed more faith power and grew stronger, the day would come when he could do such a thing with great efficiency.
At that time, he could become a true divine figure!
Given the potential he felt in this, he couldn't help but stimulate his faith power and try to guide his worshippers through the mental connection he had with them.
The worshippers didn't know that he was listening to them, nor could they easily receive messages from Minos. But he could show them some things that could make them feel his presence.
Minos then answered several prayers in this way while thinking about how he could increase his power of faith.
'In another eight years, I'll be able to collect more power of faith. That will greatly increase my abilities, but it's a pity that it won't be enough to make me much stronger by the time the aliens arrive in the world...' He sighed but still planned to strive to achieve as much as he could before the aliens arrived.
As he did so, he could sense the feelings of his worshippers and the situation around them and even see where they were and what they were doing.
That was a supreme power for those who met the difficult requirements to obtain it. If one could mesmerize an entire world's population, it would not be impossible to achieve omniscient status in such a world!
When Minos felt the power of his faith, several Demigods in Dry City couldn't help but look in the direction of the army headquarters, feeling powerful spiritual fluctuations caused by him.
'Level 91, huh? He must be close to his peak. He shouldn't get much better until the war of the worlds.' A level 97 dragon is currently in Dry City to join the local defense, he thought to himself without moving from where he was.
Meanwhile, Minos felt a level 98 aura approaching him and soon stopped what he was doing to greet an old acquaintance.
"Old Julian, you have advanced to level 98? I didn't expect that." Minos saw the man who had brought him to the Pantheon of Honor appear next to him.
