The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 143 - 143 Elementary Genetic Coder (I)

143 Elementary Genetic Coder (I)

Zarak was meditating as a river moved around the room. There were all kinds of intents inside that body of water. Sometimes it unleashed a thriving life force, just for a monstrous killing intent to emerge the next second.

The Alter-Ego moved freely, and even when it touched the walls, nothing happened due to its ephemeral nature. However, there were moments when Zarak’s willpower would spike, and that mighty river would crash against the walls, leaving massive cracks.

Suddenly, Zarak’s eyes opened, and he calmed his Alter-Ego as he saw that a woman appeared through the teleportation matrix.

“What is the problem?”

Abin knew that Zarak did not like to be interrupted during his training, so she would only come if there were a problem that she could not handle on her own.

“My Lord, I have detected chatter regarding the Young Lord in the capital. It is among the circles of the Great Organizations.”

Zarak’s eyes grew cold as he heard those words, and he turned toward the License Bureau. His Alter-Ego was still in the open, and the killing intent in this one burst with greater might than before.

“It seems some people think that they can ignore my warnings.”

In Zarak’s mind, the only reason for Cain’s name to be mentioned among the Great Organization’s circles would be the Hypnosis Associations. That meant that Akyra went back on her words and broke her promise to him.

.....

Abin noticed the look in Zarak’s eyes and knew she had to intervene. Her master was not someone that allowed deception from others.

“Lord, It was not Lady Akyra the one responsible for Young Lord’s name going around the Great Organizations. I investigated, and all originated from the Genetic Coding Association.

The teacher from the Genetic Coder Class, Camil Severen, sent a file with Young Lord’s name and description to the Genetic Coding Association.”

Zarak frowned when he heard that. There were many reasons for someone’s personal information to reach the Genetic Coding Association, and some of them were truly terrifying.

“I understand the implications of Young Lord’s personal information reaching the Genetic Coding Associations, so I acted fast and reached out to one of my contacts. It turns out that that teacher wanted the association to consider Young Lord for the Seed Program.”

When Zarak heard Camil’s intentions, his frown vanished, and confusion replaced it.

“The Seed Program is where the Genetic Coding Association reaches out to youths with incredible talent in Genetic Coding, helping them harvest their full potential. What does that have to do with Cain?”

Abin showed an odd smile as she heard Zarak’s question.

“It turns out that Young Lord is a divine genius when it comes to Genetic Coding. He possesses Genetic Sight, and after a single class, he was able to create a Silver Vector with a 0% Flaw.”

Zarak’s eyes twitched when he heard that, and he did not know how to react. Although he was not a Genetic Coder, he had used many Wave Viruses over the course of his path to power and knew just how amazing it is for someone to create a Pseudo-Golden Vector after a single class.

“Hahahaha, that bloody brat, always attracting the focus of powerhouses, generating more and more work for.”

Zarak burst with laughter, and the Alter-Ego’s killing intent vanished, replaced by a thriving life that flooded the room.

He wanted to keep Cain’s name and power away from the capital, not due to selfishness. He could secure Cain’s life and autonomy in the Collapsing Lightning Sector. However, even he had to be careful against the monsters of the Godslayer Humankind Empire Capital.

“The Genetic Coding Association treats their geniuses very well, and I doubt that some of the old monsters in it will be interested in Cain since they have their own geniuses to take care of.”

Zarak made a pause as he considered his next move.

“Inform me if anyone special enters the Collapsing Lightning Sector. Until then, let things play out and just watch from a distance.”

“Yes. Lord.” Abin bowed toward Zarak before using the teleportation matrix and leaving.

Zarak was alone, and he sighed before showing a smile.

“Learning his true nature before fifteen, a Duality Alter-Ego, and divine talent as a Healing Hypnotist and a Genetic Coder. That brat grows more and more interesting.”

Cain, Lurin, and Ophelia walked out of the auditorium with large smiles. The trio emerged victorious and secured their position in the Genetic Coder Class.

Lurin had shown great talent, creating four Bronze Vectors, with the best one having just an 11% Flaw. It was just a matter of time before he reached a 0% Flaw and could begin working with Silver Vectors.

Ophelia’s aptitudes were not as good as Lurin, but her hard work and Camil’s constant help allowed her to create two Bronze Vectors, with the best one having a 17% Flaw. Although becoming a Grand Genetic Coder would be incredibly hard, with enough effort, she could reach the peak of the Elemental Genetic Coder Rank.

Cain made small talk with the duo before going to his residence. He did his usual ritual of bowing to his father’s altar and taking a shower before eating a small meal.

Although there were all sorts of projects in his mind, the first thing Cain did was adopt a meditative position and enter Embryonic Breathing. That would help his mind to rest while internalizing all the knowledge he had gained today.

After a few hours, Cain opened his eyes, and he felt relaxed. Not only had he improved his understanding of Genetic Coding, but all the problems he could not figure out before seemed much simpler now.

Cain entered the military academy’s network and bought some things before taking out his Genetic Coder’s equipment. In front of him appeared the Genetic Chamber, along with ten capsules holding Silver Vectors.

He was not supposed to leave with it, but Camil exchanged them for all his Bronze Vectors.

Cain had no idea why the woman would want the Bronze Vectors since they were practically worthless for a Genetic Coder, but he accepted.

The Genetic Chamber was not all he gained from that deal, as Camil also gave him something else to train on his own.

[Enhanced Wave Drive: Wave Virus designed to enhance the target’s Wave Talent.

-Useful for Wave Warrior’s genome.

-It will last for five days.

-The enhancement will vary between 5 to 10% according to the Genetic Coder’s skill.]

Cain smiled as he saw the recipe inside his [A.I. Chip Module] that described the generation of a Genetic Chain. If he completed it and then managed to stabilize it inside a Vector, he would have formed a Wave Virus, becoming an official Elementary Genetic Coder!

It did not take long for a drone to arrive inside his residence, carrying on all the material he would need to create ten Genetic Chains.

Before doing anything, Cain went through the steps in his mind again and again, making sure each and every one of them was as clear as walking.

It was only after every step came out naturally in his mind that he began.

Cain took a deep breath and ensured his mind was at full power before his eyes glowed with red light, and he activated Virtual Sight.

He carefully poured the vials with the components for the Genetic Chains into the Genetic Chamber before using his [A.I. Chip Module] to obtain a virtual image of them and began to work. Every step was done with extreme care, always leaving part of his focus for Virtual Sight, so he could predict every mistake before it happened.

Creating a Genetic Chain consisted of arranging a series of genes in a specific order, so they could reach the host’s DNA and replace specific parts.

Cain’s eyes burst with red light as he pushed his Ego Wave to the limit so it could enhance his cognitive abilities and speed of thought. He had blocked everything else, leaving nothing but the Genetic Chamber in his sight.

After an hour, Cain allowed his body and mind to relax as a smile appeared on his face. There was a new capsule in the Genetic Chamber containing the Enhanced Wave Drive’s Genetic Chain!

After resting for a moment, Cain used his [A.I. Chip Module] to see the efficacy of the Genetic Chain.

[Enhanced Wave Drive’s Genetic Chain: Increase of Wave Talent by 5.7%]

Cain frowned as he saw that value. It was very close to the theoretical limit, meaning he had almost failed.

The fact he had just started his path as a Genetic Coder less than two days ago, and he managed to create a Genetic Chain for a complicated Wave Virus did not mean anything to Cain.

‘The only thing that matters is the outcome.’

Cain’s eyes grew sharp as he went through every step of the process in his mind and used [Basic Virtual Simulation] to prove different modifications.

Only after another hour he began to create a new Genetic Chain.
