Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse

Chapter 4000: Be The Scariest Monster! II

Noah’s eyes burned with brilliant intensity as understanding crystallized into ambition. The numbers were staggering, representing advancement potential that would have taken others eons to accumulate through conventional methods. His voice carried tyrannical certainty as he spoke his realization aloud.

”It seems...I need to focus on hunting Duke-level entities.”

The statement buzzed in the air like a declaration of war against the established order of existence itself!

He knew that currently, his power remained far below that of an Honored Living Existence, let alone a Duke. But if he could continue eliminating such beings through strategic positioning and clever use of his unique resources, if he could keep converting their deaths into nutrients for his advancement... he would catch up soon enough.

The golden sands beneath the corpses began to shift and churn, drawing the massive remains and scattered pieces into their depths with the patient hunger of something that knew how to wait for its meals.

The Shore itself was consuming them, breaking them down into components that could fuel advancement.

Another prompt materialized, this one requiring his direct input.

|Due to the overabundance of nutrients currently being processed, allocation distribution is required. The Early Veiled Shore requests guidance on nutrient distribution across multiple possible development priorities. Proposed allocation:

- 15% toward Plot Enhancement: Accelerate maturation of currently planted Sacred Herbs (Transcendent Veilmoss, Chronos Petrichor, Void-Heart Chrysanthemums, Echo Sage, Infinity’s Breath Orchids.. )

- 15% toward Tree Awakening: Enable the nine Early Sacred Trees to begin producing their first fruits

- 20% toward Shore Expansion: Further increase the territory of the Early Veiled Shore by an additional 200%

- 15% toward Leviathan’s Eternum Cage construction: Build an ancient early aquarium designed to automatically draw in and capture Early Living Marine Lifeforms. Once caught, no entity below Early Creature status can escape

- 35% toward Personal Enhancement: Accelerate forging of Towers of Osmont, advance completion of the second part of your Heart (Oruvian Shardveil - The Arterial Convergence Core), and finalize the Early Atlas of the Folds

Confirm allocation?]

...!

Noah gazed at the breakdown with calm and tyrannical excitement, his mind already calculating how each investment would compound into future advantages.

The Leviathan’s Eternum Cage particularly caught his attention...an automatic harvesting system for Marine Lifeforms would provide consistent nutrients without requiring his direct involvement.

”Proceed,” he commanded.

HUUM!

The eruption of brilliance that followed made reality itself take notice. The entire Early Veiled Shore pulsed with white-gold radiance that seemed to emerge from every grain of sand simultaneously.

Waves of concentrated authority rippled outward from the points where nutrients were being processed, each pulse carrying with it fundamental changes to the Shore’s nature.

Heidrun, who had been maintaining her vigil over the sacred herb plots with characteristic arrogance, suddenly rose to her feet with unprecedented excitement.

Her crystalline eyes widened as she witnessed golden light of impossible density bathing the plots she had been guarding. The herbs, which had been growing at their natural pace, suddenly began flourishing with explosive vitality. Leaves unfurled, stems thickened, and the very air around them began to shimmer with the potency of their accelerated maturation.

Noah began walking across the golden sands toward the shoreline, each step feeling like a ceremony of advancement.

Moiraine followed behind him, and he could hear her release a soft sigh as the worry finally left her expression. When he glanced back, she was smiling...not the careful, respectful smile she usually wore, but something genuine and warm.

She would simply trust that he knew what he was doing.

As he walked, prompts began cascading through his consciousness, each one marking another milestone in his impossible progression!

|Heart Component Progress - Oruvian Shardveil (The Arterial Convergence Core): 67% complete. Crystalline arterial networks forming. Blood production capacity increasing exponentially.|

|Current Blood of Early Creature reserves: 10,847 drops. Production rate has increased to 500 drops per hour due to enhanced Heart development.|

-Tower of Plot...]

Noah almost laughed as he saw the Early Veiled Shore going all out to even give unique names to the Towers of Osmont experiencing their advancement to the Second Stage.

When Noah closed his eyes, the sensation that washed over him defied description.

He could feel the golden sands of the Early Veiled Shore infusing him with tremendous glory, each grain seemingly connected to his existence through threads of pure authority.

Every step he took sent waves of gold surging through his being...into every cell, every atom, every synapse. It was as if the Shore itself had become an extension of his body, or perhaps his body had become an extension of the Shore!

The feeling was utterly indescribable, a symphony of advancement playing through his very existence. Power became him, each pulse of nutrients reshaping fundamental aspects of his nature.

His muscles densed with strength that transcended the physical, his bones crystallized with durability that mocked conventional limits, his mind expanded to accommodate understanding that would have shattered lesser consciousness.

When he opened his eyes again, he stood near the waters of the Shore. The crystalline waves lapped at the sand with gentle insistence, each surge carrying whispers of the Marine Lifeforms that dwelt in their depths.

To his right, he could see the construction beginning...massive pillars of crystallized authority rising from the sands as the Leviathan’s Eternum Cage began taking shape.

The structure was magnificent even in its earliest stages. Archways of compressed space curved impossibly, creating passages that existed in more dimensions than the eye could properly follow. The foundation gleamed with runes and Glyphs that seemed to write themselves into existence, each symbol a law that would govern the Cage’s operation.𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

It would be beautiful and terrible...a trap that offered no escape, a prison that Marine Lifeforms would swim into willingly, drawn by currents they couldn’t resist.

Alongside all of this...

[Current Complexity Quotient: 897,442,318]

[Current Purity Quotient: 901,765,429]

The numbers blazed across his consciousness with the weight of achievement.

It was...maddening if others ever knew how quickly he was doing all this!

He was approaching one billion in both measurements...the threshold where he could form his first Kleos Glyph, that ultimate expression of power that transcended normal limitations.

Noah stood watching the Leviathan’s Eternum Cage take shape, its emerging form promising automated harvest of resources that would fuel endless advancement.

He was savoring these moments, enjoying the boons that came after heavy war, knowing full well that the landscape of existence was about to change dramatically.

The ramifications of what had occurred in the Temporal Folds would ripple outward.

The emergence of Dead Existences, the intervention of Living Paradoxes, his own display of power and Moiraine....all of it would reshape how the great powers viewed each other and their positions in the hierarchy of existence.

And he would be a participant in whatever came next. His eyes gazed into the distance as his mind reached out to his other body, still maintaining his merchant persona in Aeternitas Concordia.

He expected Duke Gwendolyn to approach that body very soon, drawn by questions and possibilities that his display had created.

Through that interaction, he might be able to observe the reshaping of Living Existence hierarchy in real time, positioning himself to take advantage of whatever opportunities emerged.

The Shore pulsed around him with renewed vitality, each breath he took filled with the scent of advancement and possibility!

The sacred herbs reached toward maturity, the trees prepared to bear fruit, and in the depths of the expanding waters, new Marine Lifeforms began to spawn, drawn by the irresistible authority of an Early Creature’s domain.

He had transformed a battlefield into a harvest, converted death into life, turned endings into new beginnings. And this...was only the glorious and magisterial beginning of what he would accomplish!
