I Can Program My Body?

Chapter 672: First Level Authority

Analyzing the array formation of the trial space, Nash’s mind began to work frantically.

However, as minutes passed, the cold gradually increased, encasing him in an ice block.

Fortunately, with the protection of the [Adaptive Module System] he had optimized several times before was not a joke.

In fact, as the cold intensified, its effectiveness also rose with it, leaving Nash perfectly protected.

Unfortunately, as an hour and two went by, the [Adaptive Module System] began to lag behind in growth.

Feeling the chill, Nash also stopped his deduction.

"I found it."

Based on the terrain he scanned before using the expansion of his soul, he was able to deduce the key ley lines directly connected to the core of the array.

Turning his gear, Nash bolted in that direction at full speed.

Although he wanted to stay longer to collect data for the [Adaptive Module System], he didn’t have much time to waste.

Soon, after traversing the billions of kilometers of snow and ice, Nash saw a castle-like concave on the horizon.

"This place is too vast..." Nash sighed in fatigue.

Because he needed to follow the path of the array connected to the core, he had to trek the land directly.

Billions of kilometers was a distance impossible to trek for those below those who mastered the power of law.

Nash was basically traveling at a third of the speed of light to reach here.

Along the way, there were even cold waves and monsters assailing him.

He estimated that even a tier 8 War God would have a hard time finding this place, given the limited time.

In which case, it’s better to wait 30 hours and pass the trial.

Arriving at the core, Nash wasn’t in a hurry to destroy it.

To make subsequent trials easier, Nash began to closely study how the core was positioned.

In this way, he would no longer have to navigate the land on foot but could directly pinpoint the place for teleportation.

Although he was still at tier 5 realm, with various treasures, his mastery of the elements, and the primal void energy he possessed, short-range teleportation across trillions of kilometers was still possible.

Spending hours in the cold, Nash thoroughly studied the runic composition of the core, coupled with its protective layer.

"It’s done."

Without hesitation, he blasted the icy core with a burst of power.

[Reward: SSS Ice Affinity enhancement]

Suddenly, feeling a surge of ice-cold power flowing into his body, Nash couldn’t help but take a deep breath.

"Awesome!"

Different from the ice sensation, the affinity enhancement felt as if his body suddenly cooled in a hot desert.

Feeling his current state of affinity, he noticed his ice affinity had formally reached the SSS level.

"SSS level affinity? I could reach this level before I advance to higher realms?" Nash smiled.

After reaching SS level affinity, its growth began to slow down.

Even as his soul and void energy capacity continued to increase, it was as if it encountered a wall and could no longer advance.

Nash estimated he could only break through after reaching tier 7 or tier 8.

However, with the Altier Arcane Tower affinity enhancements, it seemed some of his elements would advance first.

"This could also shorten the growth of my other affinities," Nash pondered.

If hundreds of his affinities reached the SSS level first, the energy from his advancement would be far more concentrated in helping the others.

[Nash Navre:

Trial Complete: 1]

[Do you wish to publicize your result?]

"No."

Publicizing results was nothing more than accumulating reputation.

However, a reputation without corresponding strength was no different than painting himself red to be a target.

Finishing the first trial, Nash quickly entered the next.

This time, instead of an icy field, it was a desert of sand.

As far as his eyes could see were sand, roaring tornadoes, and searing heat.

"Isn’t the trial about different elements? How could there be multiple here? Could it be my rating affecting the trial?"

Not having time to react, he suddenly felt dryness in his throat.

"It could even directly affect my body? Just what kind of trial is this?"

Although the way to pass the trial was still the same as before, survive 30 hours or destroy the core, the content was different.

Based on what he had heard, on the early floors, one would only face single-element trials.

It was only on later floors that the trials combined multiple elements, which this trial already had.

"Is the tower challenging me?"

Regardless, no matter what trial he was in, Nash had no fear.

Expanding his soul to the limit of what he could bear, he began to scan the terrain.

Teleporting to one area after another, his mind began to work in a methodical way, deducing the position of the core.

Soon, just over an hour later, with reference from the previous trial, Nash quickly located the core.

With pinpoint accuracy, Nash directly skipped over billions of kilometers, teleporting straight through the distance.

Unfortunately, due to inexperience and multiple interferences along the way, he was still delayed an hour or two.

Finding the core, Nash took a brief scan comparing it to the first trial and crushed it with little force.

[Second Trial Complete!]

[Time: 3 hours and 15 minutes]

[Rating: SSS]

[Reward: SSS Sand Affinity enhancement]

Feeling another of his affinities break through to the SSS level, Nash felt refreshed.

"The next one!"

Feeling the benefits, Nash quickly entered the next stage.

This time, facing acid rain, bolts of lightning, and trembling earth, Nash didn’t hesitate.

Following his previous method, he deduced the position of the core and then teleported directly to it.

Taking several hours, he completed the third trial without a hitch.

Then, going through the fourth, the fifth, the sixth, the seventh, the eighth, the ninth, all the way to the tenth trial.

Spending over a few days, Nash blazed through each trial like it was a walk in the park.
