Thanks for the invitation, I am in the state of collapse, brushing attribute upgrade

While constantly speculating in his mind, Gwen did not wait for Kevin to speak, and spoke first.

"Now, can you tell me how to open the stigmata and gain the power within?"

Although Gwen believed that he should be able to change the future of the world at the current upgrade speed, he would not mind if he could have an extra guarantee.

Moreover, if he could obtain a reasonable method to develop Kaslana's stigma, Gwyn might also be able to help Yulandel or even Kiana, who is still wandering, to improve her strength.

"of course."

Kevin's voice returned to its original coldness and calmness, as if the silence just now did not exist.

Immediately, a piece of information flooded into Gwyn's mind.

The amount of information was not large, and Gwen received it quickly.

But Gwen did not show any joy at all——

There are few techniques on how to develop the power of the stigmata, but more descriptions of the precautions and dangers involved.

In short, if you want to master the power of Kaslana's stigma, you just need to be strong enough, strong enough to overcome all difficulties and obstacles.

"Thanks……"

Although he was a little speechless about Kevin's message, Gwen still chose to thank him first before turning the topic to other directions.

"Mr. Kevin, from what you just said, it seems that you are not in this world?"

"Yes."

Kevin's voice was calm, not moved at all by Gwen's words, nor did he hide his past.

“Thousands of years ago, I had a conflict with my friend.

As a result of the conflict, I was exiled from the world."

"...

So……"

After a few breaths of silence, Gwen pretended to be polite and did not ask why Kevin was exiled. Instead, he asked,

"Do you want to come back?"

"...

My return is not far off.”

Although the World Serpent still lacks a few key pieces of the puzzle to pull itself out of the Quantum Sea, Kevin remains as steady as a rock.

"That is, you want to come back, but you can't come back directly yet."

There was a hint of smile in Gwen's voice.

"So, how about a deal, Mr. Kevin?"

"Tell me."

In the quantum ocean, Kevin's brows raised slightly.

Gwen is very smart, at least when talking to him here, he is a little clever, which makes Kevin willing to listen to Gwen's ideas.

“Although I don’t know your past yet, from the sword strike during the day, I can see that you have an extraordinary understanding of the use of power.

So, I hope you can guide me in how to use my power.

In return, I can provide you with some assistance to the best of my ability when the time is right."

"..."

Ever since this unexpected connection was established today, Kevin's expression, which had been as calm as an iceberg for ten thousand years, finally changed significantly, and his brows knitted together.

The hint he gave was already very obvious. At least with Gwen's cleverness, Kevin felt that Gwen should be able to interpret the meaning of "I may be a threat to this world" in his words.

But even so, Gwyn still extended this invitation...

Let me tell you a funny story first——

I published this book on the last day of last month. If I had published it earlier, I would have been able to sign the contract and start the full attendance period in May.

As a result, I changed the outline and the beginning of the article that day. When I finally sent it out, it was already past 2 o'clock. As a result, I didn't complete the process.

Perfect attendance for exactly one month (×)

Write one month in vain (√)

Le, the clown is actually me!

Back to the topic, the book will be on the shelves tomorrow.

Half a month ago, I wanted to write two words in my commentary on the release of my novel: "Ten more chapters."

But unexpected things are bound to happen. I wasted a few days doing psychological counseling for an elderly patient at home. Not to mention saving the manuscript, I even had to rush to get the number of words to be published.

But please rest assured, although the plan of ten updates on the day of release failed, it is still possible to maintain the top five and strive for the top six.

Who will be the first to be awakened in "Awakening the Nerves"?

What kind of future did Otto prepare for his eldest son?

How will the protagonist disrupt Otto's plan?

Will the protagonist's future weapon be the Holy Judgment of Heavenly Fire or the Anti-Humanity Flame Blade?

Does the upgrade system have a limited upper limit like the favor system?

What is the future of chat groups?

Please stay tuned for more of the above.

And... I feel like the current cover isn't recognizable enough. Should I change it?

Chapter 58 Kevin's Expectations (Available for pre-order)

"Your foundation is very solid. I can't teach you much."

Although Kevin noticed Gwen's abnormality, he did not think too much about the deal Gwen proposed without his hint. His frown relaxed and he said calmly,

“But in return, I need you to do something for me in the future.

Do you still want to make such a deal?"

Both his beloved and best friend are rare wise men among humans, which makes Kevin have sufficient self-awareness - he has never been a person who excels in wisdom.

Perhaps the long period of time has transformed Kevin from a hot-blooded fool into a thinker capable of philosophical thinking, but this does not make him a conspirator who is good at calculating people's hearts.

Fortunately, what Kevin relies on is never wisdom, but strength.

So, although Kevin noticed that Gwyn might have some ulterior motives, he didn't care.

In fact... in Kevin's heart, there was still some expectation——

I look forward to what Kaslana, the only person who has contacted me in this millennium, can do...

Thousands of years ago, Kevin was about to implement the Stigmata Project, which led to a conflict with Su, and he was eventually sent into this quantum sea.

Su believes that the possibility of a new civilization should not be eliminated, and the Stigmata Project should only be the last option when civilization has no other choice, not the only option.

Kevin did not deny this, but he would rather believe Mei's plan than the vague future.

However, when he sank into the Quantum Sea, Kevin chose to send Su back to the Eigenworld, obeying Su's idea.

Because Kevin knew that the restrictions Su placed on him were also Mei's instructions.

Moreover, compared to the previous civilization, the current civilization may indeed be different - it contains the hope left by another person.

Therefore, Kevin looks forward to the possibility and hope that people in the current civilization can have, as Su said, overcome themselves and move towards new possibilities.

This is what she expected and what she hoped for...

And now, Kevin saw a glimmer of possibility in Gwyn.

"This favor needs to be done without violating my position and ethics."

In the ward, Gwen, who didn't know that Kevin had thought so much, didn't care about Kevin's words, but only set limits on the compensation Kevin proposed.

Indeed, this is not a world with a mature training system. Kevin, who started out as a fusion warrior, may only be able to teach Gwyn some experience and some high-level insights, but this is exactly what Gwyn needs.

"Can……"

Kevin nodded slightly and agreed to the restrictions proposed by Gwen.

Although there are some tricks, it seems that they are far from having no bottom line.

"Then...it's a deal."

Hearing this, Gwen in the ward couldn't help but smile.

Kevin's troubles were temporarily put to rest, and at the same time, he got guidance from the strongest human being almost for free. This is certainly worth being happy about.

Moreover, when communicating with Kevin, Gwen also discovered that although he had established a connection with Kevin, his blood ancestor, through "Awakening the Nerves", it was only a connection.

Kevin's soul is still well within his own body, and if Gwen wants, he can cut off or block this connection at any time.

With this assurance, Gwen felt much more relaxed and his guard was lowered a little. He continued to ask:

"So, Mr. Kevin, you mentioned earlier about the effect those two stones had on my body...did you discover something?"

"Those two stones are very special,"

Hearing Gwen's question, Kevin's thoughts instantly dissipated, and he responded calmly,

“It contains a certain energy that is different from Honkai, but it is too weak.

However, the energy in these two stones can affect the human body through the special magnetic field of the stones themselves.

From an energy perspective, your body should have already established a deep connection with the two stones and accepted the energy contained in them.

Judging from your physical condition, this impact should be positive, and some changes have taken place both physically and mentally.

Now that things have come to this, it’s better to accept it calmly. Even if there are problems, they can be resolved as soon as possible.”

This is why Gwen asked Kevin for guidance——

Some things obtained from another world act on himself, but the system does not display them, so Gwyn has no way of knowing whether the effect is good or bad.

Although Kevin didn't understand those things, he could still come to some conclusions that Gwen could not reach from his high vantage point.

"I understand."

Gwen was not surprised by Kevin's conclusion.

After all, the impact of the two light and shadow stones has become a development capability displayed in the system, and at this time it is just a deeper impact or connection.

While talking to Kevin in his mind, Gwen yawned, turned off the bedside lamp, and looked like he was getting ready for bed. In his mind, he said to Kevin:

"Good night, then, Mr. Kevin."

Having said that, Gwen blocked all contact with Kevin.

Since Kevin didn't understand this connection, the right to explain it naturally belonged to Gwen—

This extraordinary connection will automatically shut down when Gwen is asleep. It is normal when the signal is poor, right?

In the quantum sea, that special perspective suddenly disappeared, which made Kevin, who had gradually become accustomed to the dual perspective, startled for a moment, and then he shook his head slightly.
