52 EIA Training Base
"We're here, Zeras..." Quinn screamed out to him gleefully as they both went towards the exit direction.
The spaceship exit door slowly opened Zeras immediately felt something different about the air and that was Mana. He could feel it was extremely abundant as his pores automatically open as if trying to suck in the mana present.
After exiting, Zeras could finally see where he was as he marveled at the gargantuan structures present, flying jets moving around the air, and present on them were people dressed in a dark-red uniforms.
"All participants are to head towards the building 100 meters and 45° to the right to retrieve their cadets uniform and track watch." The AI voice reverberated as Quinn dragged him towards the building.
"You know I wouldn't believe it if you told me you've not been here before..." Zeras said with a smile as he looked at Quinn.
"You're the one living in the forest till now..." Quinn said with a laugh as they both entered the large building, written on it were New EIA Cadets.

A young man with raven dark hair could be seen walking through the EIA Base with a bag behind him and a black watch in his hand.
Zeras looked at the watch as he saw the arrow on the map before moving toward the right in the direction of the dorm rooms.
"Hmm, so this is a Mana Arc Generator" Zetas muttered to himself looking at the talk dark metallic pole just behind his dorm room.
One of the privileges of ranking higher on the Trial was this Mana Arc Generator that automatically directs Mana the closer one is to it. Due to him being first, his dorm room was the closest to the Arc Generator making sure he had an abundance of Mana in his dorm room than most.
Clenching the doorknob and stepping into the room, a smile couldn't help but creep his way towards his face.
The living room was very large with three large sofas arranged in a square-like format.
A chandelier could be seen on top of the ceiling illuminating the room in a white light that glowed gently.
Far at the other end, three doors could be seen with a small indicator present indicating bathroom, kitchen, Cultivation room, and bedroom.
Zeras immediately moved towards the mana room as he opened and was shocked by what he saw.
The Mana room was dimly lit and right in the middle of it was a small pool filled with strange blue water.
Zeras moved towards the pool as he dipped his hands into the water, but he only felt like touching hair while the liquid quickly entered his pore and settled in his dantian.
"Mana... Liquified Mana?" Zeras felt his mind went numb as he couldn't believe that was even possible.
Normally, mana was just like air existing only in gaseous form but the Mana in the pool coalesced to form liquid. This could only be due to the concentration of Mana becoming so much that it turned into liquid. With this crazy abundance of mana, he wasn't sure how much his cultivation would improve if he absorbed everything.
Zeras felt his heart pumping in anticipation but before that, he needed to do something important and that was his system updates he ignored up to now.
"System Interface..." Zeras called out causing a golden-coloured notification panel to appear in front of him:

"System Interface..." Zeras called out causing the interface to appear:
[System Interface]

{Attributes points: 20/20}
"Add 10 points to strength. +5 points to Intelligence and 5 points to Agility" Zeras ordered. He chose to add no points to his perception because he was at least confident of the EIA Base being secure. As for why he had 5 points to Intelligence, it was because every time he looked at the intelligence being at 5, he couldn't help but feel the system was ridiculing him.

>>Dash: Increases Host current speed by triple. (Level 2)
Zeras suddenly felt a hot feeling pass through his entire body before he felt a cold current that made him take a breath in as he felt himself growing stronger.

"Good, with that done, the last thing was upgrading his Skills and abilities.
[Skills and Abilities.]
{Basic Skills}
>>Dash: Increases Host current speed by triple. (Level 2)
>>Regeneration: The host body is part chaotic, making regeneration ten times faster due to the host being part gaseous. (Level 1)

The host can now absorb life energy from dead bodies either killed by the host or not for now due to the extremely weak level of gene.
[Ability Upgrade Cards: 2]
"Good. Now what should I upgrade?"
Zeras focused as he debated on what skills to upgrade and made his decision.
