Master Of None

Chapter 2370: 2370. Transparent

The healing showed a lot of what needed to be learned about both dark mana and of course about undead mana. Walker could see that the more potent wounds caused from bites and the dark mana being left was very dangerous. The skin and muscle around did not instantly decay.

He could use his mana sense and the knowledge that he gained about healing from others to see that it first caused the muscle to seize up. This caused the muscle to become too tense for blood to flow properly, it also caused bruising in the skin around it. The reaction was also due to the smaller blood vessels beginning to rot. An overall terrifying effect that would have made many healers without proper experience call for a veteran.

Since this was a much stronger effect from a bite containing dark mana, Walker Knew that there would have to be more research in how the attacks of some monsters had changed because of the increase in dark mana. He would have Mordant focus and lead this endeavor since it was just the best option.

Since Mordant had mana understanding of dark mana much greater than anyone else before the changes in the world, he could gather and produce a clear report about the differences. From there, they could work with dark mages and other dark affinity class users to prove that there could be ways to handle this.

Some of the healers had been using light mana primarily, however, healers within Genesis were not bound by one mana nowadays. While rare before the world had returned to proper mana flow, it was clearer now than ever that the classes allowed for there to be healers that utilized all manas as a method of healing.

While it was a theory that some manas were not as good at healing since they did not have purification effects innately, that was just a theory without proper proof or disproof yet due to the lack of overall information. Hence why it was a big piece of gossip when there was a flame healer, wind healer, and even a dark healer recently.

All of this was still secondary when it came to the entire lack of information about undead mana. There had not been a necromancer, undead mage, or undead anything that had been part of Genesis as of yet.

This was sure to change though.

Having a land of the undead being part of the world right now was simply proof that the balance of the world was grander than what they had all relaxed. The immortal chasing race had not necessarily always been a part of that land but had actually been a seed on that land that allowed it to exist.

The loss of mana to the world to a high degree had stunted the world and caused many places to be lost to unknown and strange spatial phenomena. Walker was more sure that it was the world using space mana to protect itself than anything when he realized just how much the world and everything within grew after mana returned.

If there was a land that could become a land of the undead, then just like the many elemental planes, there had to be areas that would eventually reflect those elemental planes. Not entirely divided but part of the perfect balance of the world in its entirety.

The undead mana was a mystery and could facilitate a new phase in the growth of everyone and everything. When new classes appeared, they would have to be studied with caution since the undead mana could potentially harm the wielders and those around them.

Whoever, if used properly, the knowledge could be used to defend against undead mana in this new land of the undead. Not to mention keep track of the newly born undead and even the ancient undead that were appearing. At the end of the day, Walker knew all of this was possible and he would have to follow closely as time went on.

Thatʼs why he took the time while they moved to speak through the communication crystals. Allowing for everyone to know of the undead lands and the risks there. He also made sure that Clara understood why only higher ranked adventurers would be allowed to go there. Not just because there was a risk of the younger and weaker adventurers becoming ill and dying there, but because there were packs of undead monsters now.

That was the main focus. If the undead were not bound to the area for any reason other than the undead mana that they needed in the area, they could travel. Meaning that for miles outside of the undead lands, certain undead monsters might roam. And with the large concentration of undead monsters that surely remained within the ruins of the immortal chasing raceʼs city, they could leave there in droves if bothered.

That Was a risk many did not wish to hear or take. But for the Genesis representatives, it was an important fuel. They had all pushed for the villages, towns, and cities to reinforce themselves since the wilderness was changing. The monsters outside the wilderness were very dangerous and some even changed so radically that the current information was not at all helpful to handling the risks associated with them.

Since so much action had already been in the works for preparing these defenses, many people praised their actions. The many guards who had been brought in to different training programs became instantly reinvigorated as the Genesis representatives shared the information on the newly altered and documented undead lands.

So many had already heard of the dangers of undead and knew of the entire story about the immortal kingʼs experimentations. The immortal chasing race had also been shared, their known history and gruesome actions were well known now. Since this was the case, the transparency from the representatives had just become more inspiration.

Being able to share this information and it not cause panic also showed a lot. Walker hadnʼt even been away for an additional day on his return journey and he was receiving communications crystal messages about how Genesis was calm and prepared to keep pushing forward their plans.

One in particular was showing a surprising amount of new effort.

The flying ship which had passed many tests in smaller forms and even been redesigned at a few important hurdles proved to be advanced by leaps and bounds.

The idea that there were even more monsters with dangerous affinities like a stronger dark mana and even potential flocks of undead monsters inspired people to put in harder work. As such, they began to prove that the fly ship project was nearer and nearer to being completed.

This also stemmed from the fact that the cloud fairies would be able to get above Genesis properly very soon. Their safety in the sky was a reason that the flying ship and those who could fight within the sky were more important. Not only that they needed to protect this new race who needed to learn a great deal that happened while they were isolated, but because there were potential dangers resurfacing that could harm them.

The flying ship would be the first major air based transportation and battle power other than just the forces who could fly themselves. The angels had the floating cities, but they were damaged from years of being unable to repair them. Their loss of history in that respect had been why many of the angel race flocked to help the growth and building of the flying ship.

The simple idea that they could return to their homes and repair the floating cities along with potentially raising even more was enough. A dream that would inspire future generations of angel craftsmen and flying ship related classes. Something that Walker wished he could see sooner rather than later.

But when he heard that by the time he returned, that the mana crystals, mana gems, and rune formations within the flying ship would be activated to begin the preliminary preparations and mana absorption, he knew he had to be part of it.

So many people had worked on it. He had seen the designs. He had seen the building. He had even helped a little here and there. But he had the control of mana that would be able to assist with any issues that could destroy or break the flying ship in this important process.

He was also certain that just having him there would reinforce the minds and will of others. While Walker did not like to admit it, he had a reputation. He could make amazing things happen even if he was just the small driving force here and there.

If he were at the flying ship when all this happened, people would relax enough to keep their minds clear. And even that little bit would make Walker feel even greater pride in the future ahead.
