Chapter 169 Dimensional Treasury
Half a year later,
Maximus slowly opened his eyes, concluding his training.
"Huh~,"
"I don't know when I'll reach tier 6" He muttered, looking at his progress.
[Tier 5: 0.22%]
"Tsk, Using tens of millions of the world's origin energy, I didn't even reach 1 percent."
Maximus could absorb about 2-3 million units of origin energy every month.
However, he paced himself, absorbing only 2 million units every month to make time for his family.
As for the rate at which he absorbed the world's origin energy, there was nothing he could do.
Hurrying and dumping a lot of the world's origin into himself would indeed hasten his training progress.
But it would also waste a lot of energy.
2-3 million was already the balance point he had calculated, without wasting energy and delaying his training.
Exiting his training room, he was greeted by his child.
"Daddy, you're finally done with your training!" Lux ran to him happily.
Although he was only half a year old, Lux could read, talk, and run.
Due to his rank 8 talent and the environment's high mana intensity, Lux already looked like a 3-year-old kid.
Unfortunately, Lux had missed the Lumina Crysalis enrollment, so he needed to wait another year before going to school.
Now, Lux was alone with Maximus in a huge manor.
"Did you miss me, Lux?"
"I missed you, Daddy. You took so long to train!" Lux complained.
In reality, it had only taken Maximus half an hour to train.
He usually trained when his wives were here in the afternoon or at night.
"What did you do while I was training?"
"Oh, I counted the magic crystals in the Vault room. It's 1,221,423."
"It's so little daddy, you should put more money in the Vault." Lux pouted.
"It's not that little, Lux."
"Daddy is so poor and can't put more money in the Vault,"
The money in the vault room was top-grade magic crystals worth 10,000 times more than low-quality magic crystals.
Lux had belittled 12 billion worth of magic crystals like it was nothing.
"You should hurry and grow up and support me," Maximus teased, faking tears.
He didn't know why his child, Lux, was so obsessed with money.
From the time he was a few weeks old, Lux had shown a fascination with money.
Asking questions about different currencies, how to earn them, how they were stored, and more.
Maximus had even thought that Lux might be a reincarnation of some being.
But a deep scan by the system revealed nothing of the sort.
Instead, Lux had a hidden physique, the Dimensional Treasury, which reached the dimensional level.
(Normal, Heaven/God, Dimensional, Ultimate)
This physique granted ultimate luck when it came to money.
Furthermore, the higher the amount of your possessions, the greater the strength and potential.
Maximus was shocked when he discovered this.
After some inquiry from the system.
He learned that Lux absorbed some unique energy when he activated his physique.
"Don't worry, Daddy."
"After I'm done looking for loopholes in the rules of the Arcane Continent, we'll be rich!" Lux's eyes lit up.
"Sigh, don't take that crooked path, Lux."
"There's no way there will be loopholes in the laws of the Arcane Continent," Maximus discouraged.
It's not that Maximus is against the crooked path.
In fact, he had also studied the law in the Arcane Continent.
Using life points, he had mastered it through transcendence.
However, all the loopholes he had seen were for the strong.
It seemed that the law was only for the weak.
Without enough power, exploiting the laws of the Arcane Continent was just a daydream.
"Hmph! I will not give up!"
"Just give me time."
"In the future, the people of the Arcane Continent, or rather the world, will open their pockets to me!" Lux vowed as he clenched his fist.
"I do hope that happens," Maximus said, rubbing his head.
"Hehe, at that time, Daddy can just relax at home with mommies."
"By the way, it seems that the ship's blueprint is done," Maximus finally recalled.
He had been notified yesterday by Andrew, the vice guild leader of his guild.
"Do you want to come?"
"Is it the money-making ship?!" Lux asked eagerly.
His father had told him about the ship that would travel the chaotic sea to collect resources.
"No, it's a sea hunter ship."
"It's all the same; it is to earn money anyway," Lux insisted.
"But what's mine is mine," Lux murmured as he snickered.
"Fine, do you want to come?"
"Of course, how can I miss my future sea caravan!"
"That's mine, not yours," Maximus rolled his eyes.
"Daddy, what's yours is mine; it's all the same," Lux refuted.
"But what's mine is mine," Lux murmured as he snickered.
"What's that?"
"Nothing, I'm just excited," Lux shifted the topic.
"Oh," Maximus looked at him meaningfully.
...
Shadow Hunter City:
"Boss, you're finally here!" Andrew greeted.
"Oh, is this Young Master Lux, Boss?"
"I'm Lux!"
"You're really a cute kid. Here are some trinkets," Andrew smiled and gave him some gadgets.
"Worth 3 top magic crystals, not bad," Lux quickly assessed the price.
"Boss, your child is a bit unique," Andrew noted, hearing Lux mutter.
"Don't mind this money-grubber."
"Anyway, let's go see the blueprint that took almost 5 years to make."
"Sure, Boss."
Soon, they arrived at a heavily protected room.
Inside was an Aethercore projecting the entire ship blueprint.
"Maximus, you're here," Silas, who was tinkering with something, noticed them.
"I heard that you've finished the blueprint of our ship."
Taking a brief look, Maximus saw the perfection of the ship's blueprint.
"I barely did anything."
"This is the result of a few tier 8 ship builders we hired," Silas didn't take the credit.
"What do you mean? I heard that you're the one who perfected the ship," Maximus said with a smile.
With Silas's miraculous physique, the ship's blueprint was pushed to the peak of this world.
Given enough time, Heaven's Reward's only limit is this world.
It's almost the same as his life points where you could master anything given enough time.
His life points is just more efficient and easy to use.
"Thanks," Silas replied.
He was indeed the one who perfected the ship, spending a few million years in the time dilation chamber.
He had nearly gone crazy, as all he could think about was a ship.
Sometimes he even forgot his name.
This was also the danger of time dilation.
Although the maximum time dilation was 1,000,000 to 1, few dared to do such a thing.
Without an indestructible will, you would not even survive for a day.
This was also why Maximus assigned Silas for such a job.
Although he could do the same with his life points, the cost would be enormous.
"Now that we have a blueprint, it's time to build this thing," Maximus said.
"Hahaha, the Shadow Hunter is finally close to setting sail!" Andrew livened the atmosphere.
"For the richness of the world!" Lux suddenly added.
"For the Shadow Hunter Guild!" Andrew smiled and provoked Lux.
"Is this your kid?" Silas finally looked at the child Max was carrying.
"Indeed, how is it? Do you also want one?" Maximus teased.
This Silas is a century-old iron roster, who didn't see girls as girls.
Even Ragnar, who was only over 20 years old, already had a wife.
"I would think about it once I reach the apex," Silas said confidently.
Having a partner now would only hold him back.
Just one year in the time chamber would wipe out his feelings.
Why bother looking for someone you would forget sooner or later?
"Good luck with that."
"By the way, here's what I promised." Maximus tossed him a ring.
"Hmm, is this thing real?"
"Try it, and you will know."
Silas didn't reply and bound the ring to his soul.
[Silas Rusthammer:
Strength: Tier 5 Mage/Knight (12.43283%)
Potential: Rank 8 Supreme (Heaven's Reward) (1.26372%)
Soul Amplitude: 1,000,000 (100%)
Soul Will: 1,000,000 (100%)
Knowledge Mastery:
Ship Building: Tier 9 (99.88889%)
Mechanics: Tier 6 (24.48293%)
...]
"It's real..." Silas muttered silently as he looked at all his mastered knowledge.
"How is it? Are you satisfied?" Maximus smiled.
This is a status ring, a Tier 9 treasure, which had cost him tens of trillions.
It only had one function, to tell everything about you.
This is what he promised Silas as long as he was satisfied with the ship's blueprint.
Sometimes Silas couldn't keep up with the pace of how he learned new things, often wasting time.
The status ring suited him perfectly, so he could know his progress in minute detail.
"Thanks, I owe you one."
"This is how it should be," Maximus waved his hand.
Compared to how many life points he had saved, tens of trillions of magic crystals were nothing.
"Daddy, can I also get one?" Lux asked.
Lux had just heard about the function of the status ring and found it quite convenient.
"Uh, sure," Maximus thought for a while and agreed.
It was indeed a convenient thing.
He could see his progress through the system, but his family couldn't.
This could also motivate them to progress.
Furthermore, it was only a few tens of trillion.
Compared to the hundreds of trillions of Tier 9 protection amulets he was planning to buy, it was pocket change.
"Thank you, Daddy," Lux kissed him.
"Boss, can I also have one?" Andrew looked at him eagerly.
"Sure, for 100 trillion, you can have one," Maximus smiled.
After all, he still had to profit.
He also didn't want to spread it too much, exposing the system.
Fortunately, once it's bound to your soul, no one can investigate the tier of the status ring.
Otherwise, people would doubt how he could get a Tier 9 item.
"Uh, Boss, never mind."
