BXBX NOVEL Chapter 23: Chapter 23: Blackwood's ace
Ethan was becoming more convinced that he was the real deal, the big bad Voldemort himself...
Meanwhile, in the game, the Blackwood folks were dropping to their knees in gratitude.
"The Forebearer has accepted our Tribute Offering," Nathan announced, feeling a surge of pride. "Looks like he\'s pleased this time."
After Nathan finished his homage, he asked the temple guardian beast, "Could you check with the Forebearer if he has any messages for us?"
Ethan thought for a moment and then typed in the game—
"Keep pushing, develop the clan well."
Watching the Purple Thunder Solar Python let out another Voldemort-esque hiss, Ethan couldn\'t help but wonder if the game\'s setup really made him the mysterious villain?
"The Forebearer said he\'s pleased," Luna quickly relayed. "He told us to focus on strengthening our family."
"Forebearer be assured..."
Nathan was about to continue when he suddenly froze, quickly pulling his family to kneel backward as golden light began to shimmer above the Forebearer\'s cards.
"The Forebearer is showing his powers again!"
With a loud \'boom\', right in front of the Blackwood ancestral hall\'s cards, a massive creature appeared in the courtyard, standing as tall as the stunned Purple Thunder Solar Python, 10 meters high!
The intense sunlight shone on this giant, its dazzling brilliance making it hard for everyone to keep their eyes open.
When they finally got a good look at it, they were utterly shocked.
This creature stood like a human, its body angular and defined, with a smooth metallic sheen on its silver exterior, its veins seemingly exposed, and various parts of its body appeared to be glowing!
[Basic War AI Bionic Robot]!
Watching the descendants\' puzzled and shocked gazes, Ethan was even more pleased.
This thing, in the present world, is called a supernatural mech!
Inside, it uses biotechnology that allows it to move with human-like agility and operate like human supernatural meridians. Its exterior, however, is pure tech armor, connected at the core by nanotechnology to its flesh.
Just swallow an Energy Stone, and those stones will continuously power the mech, even actively recharging it!
This basic mech possesses the peak of Emerging Ability, even capable of going toe-to-toe with a newbie D-level master!
And such mechs.
They were initially developed in the U.S. during the resurgence of supernatural powers to combat exotic beasts. After continuous development and updates by the federation, it evolved into this form.
Similarly, due to its high lethality, it became a prohibited item for ordinary people on Earth!
But for Grandma Quinn, such contraband is just another tool at her disposal.
"What the heck is this? Such an intense vibe!"
"Could this be the real deal of our Forebearer?"
The Blackwood descendants were totally hyped!
Just seeing it, they could already feel the power of the War AI Bionic Robot!
Even the Purple Thunder Solar Python was freaking out a bit, staring at the War AI Bionic Robot like it knew it was no match!
"The real deal?"
At his computer, Ethan\'s lips curved into a slight smirk.
Initially, he just wanted to gift the mech to the descendants, teaching them step by step how to operate it.
But now.
He realized that the "Family Cultivating Psychic Powers Simulator" had more features and was more user-friendly than he had imagined!
"Your Divine Gift—Basic War AI Bionic Robot has been delivered!"
"War AI Bionic Robot control system detected, would you like to establish a connection?"
"Operating the Basic War AI Bionic Robot will cost 5000 Spiritual Tribute points!"
"Ding!"
"Spiritual Tribute points insufficient, War AI Bionic Robot entering autonomous combat mode."
Meaning.
He could control the War AI Bionic Robot in battle from outside the game, just like using VR!
"I can literally feel every blade of grass in the game world!"
Ethan\'s eyes widened, the more he played the "Family Cultivating Psychic Powers Simulator," the more capabilities it seemed to develop!
Holding back his excitement.
Ethan glanced at his Spiritual Tribute points.
"From this grand ritual, your descendants felt the power of the Forebearer, Spiritual Tribute points +100!"
Looking towards the top right corner.
Spiritual Tribute points—2106.
He had been accumulating Spiritual Tribute points over the years, but it still wasn\'t enough to establish a connection with the War AI Bionic Robot.
"A long road ahead."
Ethan wasn\'t in a rush, his original idea wasn\'t to control the mech directly, but to let this mech become Blackwood\'s ace in the hole, especially since Blackwood still had Heath as an enemy, and if not handled properly, the whole of Forest Town could become their enemy.
That was also why Ethan sent the War AI Bionic Robot over!
And...
Besides the elixirs, this was the best thing Ethan could send over right now.
