YM778.TV Chapter 73 System Update
Outside the Nursery, Maximus paced back and forth, worried about his wife Angeline giving birth.
After a while, just before he heard the news of his wife successfully giving birth.
A notification popped up on his system: [+1 child, potential rank 4 legendary].
Without looking at it further, he stormed into the room and looked at his wife.
Looking at Angeline and the cute baby girl, a smile appeared on his lips.
"Are you alright?" Maximus asked with concern.
"It\'s fine. It didn\'t feel like much, thanks to the potion and magic item you prepared," Angeline smiled as she hugged the baby.
The caretaker quickly left, not wanting to bother them.
Maximus felt relieved and turned his attention to the newborn baby.
The baby had no wrinkles that one would typically see in a child.
It looked like she was already a few months old, observing her surroundings with curiosity.
This was probably thanks to the child\'s legendary talent and the multiple resources Angeline took during her conception, especially the drops of origin mana.
As he noticed that when his pregnant wives had taken tier 3 origin potions to upgrade their potential to Rare, it had taken more than others.
"Have you thought of a name for her?" Angeline asked him in anticipation.
"Let\'s just call her Serene, like a star that shines through us," Maximus said.
Maximus played with them for a while, waiting for Angeline to fully recover.
After all, despite using potent potions, there were still physiological factors that needed for Angeline to relax.
Eventually, seeing the two mother and daughter sleeping, Maximus quietly left, allowing them to rest.
...
At night, a celebration began among his family.
Although it was called a celebration, it was just the usual gathering for a meal, but with more smiles and interaction.
Angeline was already able to stand and engage in physical activities after just one rest.
With the potion and Angeline\'s strength as an official mage, it was quite easy for her.
"So cute," Lydia exclaimed as she pinched baby Serene\'s cheeks.
"Aww, we have a new baby sister," Lyla said, hoping to hug Serene.
"Yes, I\'m tired of taking care of naughty boys," Lily added as she gently poked Serene\'s cheeks, causing the baby to smile.
Meanwhile, the boys didn\'t pay much attention after seeing their newly added sister.
After all, they had been shooed away by their sisters when they attempted to play with baby Serene.
As for Liam, he was busy chatting with Amara.
[Amara: Congratulations on your new sister.]
[Liam: Thanks.]
[Liam: What are you doing?]
[Amara: I\'m reading on the Moonlight Forum about various events happening throughout the kingdom.]
[Liam: Oh, that\'s nice.]
[Amara: What about you?]
[Liam: Nothing.]
...
Max, seeing that his older brother was not playing with them and was busy tinkering with his token, became intrigued about what Liam was doing.
"What are you doing, brother?" Max asked as he looked at the blurred virtual panel projected on Liam\'s token.
Blurred virtual panel is just what others see, as a privacy feature.
"Nothing!" Liam nearly had a heart attack and quickly closed the token.
"Oh? But I saw you doing something," Max was puzzled.
"I said nothing," Liam refuted with a heavy tone.
"Whatever, I saw what I saw." Max just rolled his eyes at his older brother.
Although Max was playful, he was not easy to fool.
Plus, the photographic potion he had drunk ensured that his memory was impeccable.
"Then, shut up," Liam sighed, realizing it was not easy to deceive his brother.
"You go play on your own. I\'ll join you later." Knowing that Max would pester him if he didn\'t play with them, Liam relented.
Seeing Max turn his back, Liam quickly took his token and bid farewell to Amara.
[Liam: I\'ll talk to you later.]
[Amara: Alright.]
...
More than a week later, Rose also gave birth to a boy.
[+1 Child, Potential Rank 4 Legendary]
Before Maximus could go to his wife, Rose, who had just finished labor, another notification popped up.
[System Updating...
Previous defects repairing...]
Seeing the system debugging caused a shock to Maximus.
"What update? What repair?" he wondered.
He could understand updates, as he had been baptized by novels in his previous life where systems would upgrade after certain criteria were met.
For example, with this being his 10th child, it likely met certain criteria.
Seeing that the debugging would still take time to finish, Maximus prioritized taking care of his wife, Rose, first.
Just like Serene, this newborn baby was also very lively.
After some sweet talk with Rose, Maximus decided to name the baby Neo, symbolizing a new beginning or the start of something.
That night, they also celebrated the birth of baby Neo, which brought smiles to their family.
Now, only Irene had not given birth.
Maximus planned that once Irene gave birth, they would leave and go to the Arcane Continent.
...
At night, on top of the castle where Maximus could see the entire Moonshadow City illuminated by bright alchemy light.
The atmosphere brought him a sense of calm as he watched the system nearing the end of debugging.
[99.8%...99.9%...100%]
[Family and Power System:
User: Maximus Shadowcrest
Soul: Tier 3 Nescent Mage- lvl3
Body: Tier 4 Sky Knight - lvl1
Mana Amplitude: 1.2
Mana Compatibility: Rank 4 Legendary
Machanic Comprehension: Rank 2 Uncommon (Further Classification...)
Alchemist Comprehension: Rank 2 Uncommon (Further Classification...)
Spell Comprehension: Rank 2 Uncommon (Further Classification...)
Battle Comprehension: Rank 2 Uncommon (Further Classification...)
...
There were endless classifications of potential, including ones for cooking, music, swordsmanship, spearmanship, and more.
Maximus decided to click on the \'further classification\' to see what is it about.
[Mechanic: Basics of Mechanics - Expert (4,233/10,000)
Composition of Different Materials - Proficient (735/1,000)
Rune Writing - Initial (52/100)
...]
The screen displayed a wide range of knowledge and skills that Maximus had previously learned, all of which were connected to the Mechanic profession.
Through further experimentation, Maximus discovered that he could use potential points to upgrade his potential in specific professions or skills.
Each potential point added the equivalent of 10 points when applied to a skill, and 100 points when applied to various areas of knowledge.
As for the reason why he had a rank 2 uncommon talent in all categories except Mana Compatibility.
It was due to the incredible power of the Mage cultivation manual \'Divine Consciousness.\'
Simply training in it had upgraded his comprehension, which in turn enhanced his potential in skills related to comprehension.
Maximus was uncertain of the limits of how far the Divine Consciousness could upgrade his potential.
He then examined the changes in the system\'s functions regarding the generation of gold points and potential points through his children and wives.
[Wives:
Erica: Great Mage/Official Knight, Rare Potential, 1,110 LP * Life Point per day
Hazel: Great Mage/Official Knight, Rare Potential, 1,110 LP
Luna: Official Mage/ Earth Knight, Rare Potential, 2,010 LP
Livia: Official Mage/ Earth Knight, Rare Potential, 2,010 LP
Angeline: Offical Mage/Official Knight, Rare Potential, 1,020 LP
Rose: Offical Mage/Official Knight, Rare Potential, 1,020 LP
Irene: Offical Mage/Official Knight, Rare Potential, 1,020 LP]
[Children:
Lily: Apprentice Knight, Rare Potential, 1,001 P * potential point per day
Liam: Official Knight, Rare Potential, 1,010 P
Max: Apprentice Knight, Rare Potential, 1,001 P
Nathan: Apprentice Knight, Rare Potential, 1,001 P
Lyla: Apprentice Knight, Rare Potential, 1,001 P
Lydia: Apprentice Knight, Rare Potential, 1,001 P
Sam: Apprentice Knight, Rare Potential, 1,001 P
Luke: Apprentice Knight, Rare Potential, 1,001 P
Serene: Newborn, Legendary Potential, 10,000 P
Neo: Newborn, Legendary Potential, 10,000 P]
The first and foremost change was the introduction of Life Points.
Through trial and error, Maximus discovered that 1 Life Point equated to 1 day of time. Note it\'s time not vitality or whatsoever.
Life Points had versatile applications. He could use them to add time to himself or others and even consume the time of objects or living beings.
For instance, Maximus observed a plant brimming with vitality and decided to add Life Points to it.
The plant grew rapidly, eventually reaching its flowering period.
As he continued to add Life Points, the plant\'s lifespan extended, until it eventually withered away.
This meant that with enough Life Points, Maximus could consume the life of his opponents.
Maximus also attempted to add Life Points to the subcategory in the potential tab:
[Basic of Mechanics - Expert (4,233/10,000)]
[+200, Basic of Mechanics - Expert (4,433/10,000)]
By adding 1 Life Point, he was able to experience studying the Basics of Mechanics within his mind for a day.
Life Points functioned differently from Potential Points, as they added experience based on the ease of mastering knowledge and the individual\'s talent in that subject.
Unlike Potential Points, which could be added consistently with specific values.
The second change involved the system no longer being stingy with points, whether they were Potential Points or the newly added Life Points.
Previously, point increases were solely based on strength, which was quite limited.
However, the system now awarded points based on talent, and the number of professions with respect to their tier.
Like the number of points generated based on tier, the potential to generate points is the same.
For instance, Rank 0 trash potential granted 1 point, Rank 1 common potential granted 10 points, and Rank 2 uncommon potential granted 100 points.
Maximus turned his attention to the rest of the system\'s updates:
[Myriad World Mall
Inventory: 1
Gold: 269 Billion Gold Points]
He focused on the newly added Inventory and the transformation of the Mall into the Myriad World Mall.
Curious, he clicked on the Inventory.
[Inventory: Z\'thraxalumnar...#p j!ngle$]
As he clicked on it, his consciousness was drawn into a vast, infinite space enveloped in pure white color.
In the center, there was a bundle of chaotic light, which he assumed was the \'Z\'thraxalumnar...#p j!ngle$.\'
As Maximus attempted to approach it with his consciousness, it swiftly merged with him, inundating him with a tremendous amount of information about the system\'s origins and the causes of its damage.
