"Here is your stanesa dust," said the man with jelly-like skin and gave me the leather pouch filled with while-blue dust.
"Thank you," I said to him and walked away from his shop. This is the fourteenth item, sensed by my core; it had appeared in the market six minutes ago and I brought it immediately.
I have been in the market for more than five and a half hours and I have brought many things.
Not only the things desired by my core, but also the ones I need.
There are still many things I have to buy, but I will do it later. First, I need to rest; I am tired. While I could continue, I don't want to; I have already stretched enough.
It is a dangerous environment, and I would need to be prepared at every moment. In such a tired state, I will not be able to continue for long if we get attacked now.
So, resting is important.
I crossed a few hills to find a suitable spot. As always, every spot near the market is filled.
I did not immediately bring out the dinner and instead looked at the sun, which was coming out. In the battle, many times, I thought I might not be able to live to see the next day, but I did.
I watched the dawn before taking out of my abode and entering inside.
The first I did was shower, even though all I wanted to do was eat and sleep. Fifteen minutes later, I walked out of the shower and changed into comfortable clothes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtI sat at the dining table; as I did, a feast appeared in front of me, made by my core.
I did not waste any time and dug in; the food, as always, is delicious, but it would have tasted better. If I had the company.
Nero is still sleeping, and so is Ashlyn. I don't know how long he will sleep, but I hope he will wake up soon. I felt reassured whenever he was with me.
I finished lunch in half an hour, before immediately going to my room to sleep.
The sleep was not calm, but it gave me the rest I needed. Eight hours later, when I woke up, I was ready to face any challenges.
I freshened up and ate again, before walking out of them. There are a couple of things I have to do today. Visit the market and attend the practice, but before I do that, I have to go to one place tomorrow.
If it had been yesterday, I would have skipped it, but the things that happened in the night changed things for me.
Soon, I reached the place. It is a place inside the hill. It is huge and spatially enlarged.
"Register here. If you have come to make a breakthrough," said a winged race man behind the desk. He might look like a common receptionist but is a peak Sovereign, and he is not hiding that.
"No, I have a breakthrough artifact, and the notice said, you need them urgently?" I asked, and his eyes lit up.
"Yes. We need a quality breakthrough artifact. As you can see, many people are trying to make a breakthrough to prepare for the coming battle," he said and looked at me.
I nodded, and a dark brown square bar appeared in my hand. It looked like it was made of clay.
"This is my artifact. It can be used by four Primary-III levels to Sovereign breakthrough or make twelve people of the primary class have a breakthrough at once," I explained, and his eyes brightened up even further.
"Good. Place this disc here, so we can check its abilities." He said and motioned to the blue disk.
I nodded and placed the brown bar down, and immediately a round blue disk begins to scan it. Five seconds later, the scanning rays disappeared and a numeric seven appeared above the disk.
"Good. It's above average," said the winged person happily, and turned to the human man beside him.
"Grove, take this gentleman to the hall and use four Primary for the test breakthrough," he commanded. "Yes, sir," said Human and led me to the hall, which is divided into hundreds of mini halls by every wall.
These walls are semi-transparent, and I could see people making a breakthrough in each and every one of them.
Soon, he took me to the empty hall.
"Wait here, I will bring out the people to make the breakthrough," Grove said and walked out, while I brought out the bar, which become bigger as it touched the ground.
It is my breakthrough formation and why I am doing this, because I have found an amazing thing. The energy that was created during Sovereign breakthrough merged with the bubbling soil I had created something amazing.
The mix of them had advanced the breakthrough formation, by several levels. Not only that, the substance created by the merge of them, is useful and not only in a breakthrough formation only.
It is not just that I had added a couple of test formations.
These formations will do some tests on people who were making breakthroughs without harming them. The data from the tests will be very helpful to me in designing the treatments and my breakthroughs.
So, it wouldn't be my loss. Even if no breakthrough to Sovereign or above occurred.
It is far better than the above-average breakthrough formation; especially after consuming the substance made from the soul and energy of the Sovereign breakthrough.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThough it is such a regret that I won't be able to take much of resources. The people of four races are watching and I am taking a risk bringing this out, I don't want to take bigger risks, in taking resources.
So, this bar only takes 1% of resources and 3% of the energy. It will manage that sneakily; even the Sovereign wouldn't be able to catch the theft.
I was busy in my thought when the grave returned to bring four Early-Primary III, each belonging to a different race.
"Is everything ready?" asked Grove. I nodded, and he turned to four. "You four can begin," he said.
They looked around nervously before sitting on each bracket; keeping the distance of one square bracket between them.
They do not need to; no matter where they sit result in it will give would be the same. Even if twelve people made the breakthrough together, the result would be the same.

A few minutes passed, and they made their preparations, before finally starting the breakthrough.
The moment they started, the formation inside also activated, sneakily performing the tests.
My breakthroughs are going to be slightly different, but I start. I will need a huge amount of data to verify and perfect the path I had designed.
This is the best chance to get that data. As once I got out of here, I will not get the opportunity to gather such data.
For the next two hours, everything went well, when a problem occurred suddenly with a woman with a stumped horn.
It is not a small problem, as it would have failed her breakthrough, but the formation fixed it, without taking help from me or my clone.
Seeing that, a proud smile couldn't help but appear on my face.
