Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Chapter 199: Low-Level Heat Ignorance

Ningʼs consciousness had returned back to him. Instinctively, he sent out his body out of his storage and jumped into that body.

Then, he stood up and plunged his hands into the dangerous burst of Qi and Aether. Within seconds, he absorbed a lot of energy and took his arms back.

He was starting to get the timing right, so he was no longer getting injured when he plunged part of his arm in there. Once that was done, he jumped back into the spear.

ʼUrghh, itʼs getting way too boring. How many times have I done it by now? 20? 30? Can I not do this again?ʼ Ning complained to himself.

ʼHow much energy do I even have?ʼ he wondered.

ʼStatusʼ

ʼWoah, 12 Billion? Then that means I can— Oh, wait no. Right, I still need nearly 2 Billion in Heat energy,ʼ Ning thought. ʼWell, at least I donʼt have to worry about Kinetic energy for long.ʼ

He would now have to continue doing the same thing for another dozen or more days.

He looked around him and saw that the bloody mess he had made had been buried under fresh snow. There was no sign that there was a massacre that took place in this place around…

ʼHow long has it been?ʼ Ning wondered. ʼHey system, when did I come to Vilmore?ʼ he asked.

ʼTwo months huh? No wonder my energy increased by so much. Letʼs grind a little more,ʼ he thought and asked the system to put him back to sleep.

The grind was boring, but he kept it up. Waking up, taking out the body, jumping into that body, plunging your arm into the deadly burst of Qi and Aether to get energy, jumping back into the spear, taking in the body, and then going back to sleep.

That was the routine Ning followed for as long as he could remember.

Finally, He stopped after many iterations.

Once he plunged his arms, he took it back out and checked the status. According to it, he had nearly 11 Billion Heat energy, 10 of which he could use to double the cap right now.

He didnʼt hesitate at all. ʼDouble it.ʼ

Ning was a little surprised at the notifications he had just received. ”Wait? Iʼve bought all heat energy cap increment?” he asked as he read the notifications.

”So… there is no more doubling with heat energy? Are 3 doubles the most?” Ning asked.

”Damn, that sucks. The other energies are a little harder to come by than heat energy. Hmm… although… this new skill isnʼt bad,” Ning thought as he checked the information of the [Low-Level Heat Ignorance] skill once more.

”If I can ignore 15% of all heat energy at all times, doesnʼt that mean I donʼt have to absorb 15% of the heat I come across? Whatʼs more, I can toggle it to not work too,” Ning said as he rubbed his chin.

”Yes, letʼs try it.”

Now that Ning had 160 Million energy before he could reach the Cap, he decided to try out his theory. He put the toggle on so that he ignored 15% of the heat energy that he would be feeling now.

He breathed in and plunged his hand back into the light. He waited for just long enough so that it was time and pulled his hands back. He then opened the status to calculate how much heat energy he got in comparison to before.

”Huh? Did I not hit the cap?” He thought when his calculations showed that he hadnʼt reached the 160 Million he had still left.

”Oh, wait. I really did ignore it. No wonder I didnʼt hit the cap,” Ning thought. He put his hands back for a split second to hit the cap and then pulled it back.

He thought of restarting the routine once more but stopped. ”Wait, I need to think of ways to get sound and kinetic energy. Heat is pretty much useless to me now,” he thought.

”Once I get sound and kineticʼs final cap increment too, the cap increments will stop there. At that point… I will need to unlock the next energy” Ning thought.

”System, can you tell me what the next energy is?” Ning asked.

”1 Qua— What the hell? Why would you require so much?” Ning asked.

”Fine, whatever, do what you do. I will go back to following the routine. I need to leave this place fast. I— I have people I need to go back to,” Ning said solemnly.

He wasted no more time and jumped back into the spear and took his body inside his storage. It was time to start the routine once more.
