Chapter 93 The meeting of the Unison Government
Chapter 93 The meeting of the Unison Government?
Regarding the Black Blade, Daniel decided to stow it away carefully.
He recognized its immense power but didn't see an immediate use for it in his current situation.
Perhaps in the future, it would reveal its true potential.
On the other hand, the Sage Gathering of Mana was a valuable support ability.
It would significantly boost his mana recovery, a vital resource for any player in the Modern Fantasia.
Daniel knew this skill would prove indispensable in the countless battles he was likely to face.
As for the Tears of Phoenix, he saw it as a hidden trump card, a precious resource that could potentially turn the tide of a dire situation.
He had plans for it, whether for personal use or as a bargaining chip in the treacherous world of the tower.
However, it was the X Gene Modification Cells that held the most intrigue and potential.
Daniel understood that this was a life-changing moment.
These cells could grant him supernatural abilities, and their power would be directly linked to his body's potential.
The possibilities were endless, and he couldn't wait to see what this remarkable reward had in store for him.
Upon injecting the X Gene Modification Cells into his arms, Daniel's body underwent a transformation like nothing he had ever experienced.
His veins darkened, as if his blood had been tainted by the cells, and parts of his muscles twitched and cramped while his bones emitted unsettling cracks.
His eyes flickered with a kaleidoscope of colours, each hue representing a potential enhancement.
His hair seemed to have a life of its own, flowing and waving around as if it were alive.
At times, claws extended from his fingertips, strange beastly hairs sprouted, and extra limbs appeared before retracting, as if the cells were experimenting with various mutations.
It was a chaotic and mesmerizing display of transformation, leaving Daniel both exhilarated and apprehensive about the extent of his newfound abilities.
Did Daniel feel pain?
The excruciating pain coursing through Daniel's body was unlike anything he had ever experienced.
It felt as if his very soul was being torn into pieces and then painstakingly stitched back together.
The agony was unbearable, leaving him with no choice but to unleash his anguish through primal screams.
Thankfully, his mother wasn't present to witness his torment, as her panic would only have added to his distress.
Daniel's roars echoed throughout the surroundings, causing visible damage to the area.
The ordeal continued for another five agonizing minutes before the pain began to gradually subside, leaving him panting and covered in sweat.
As time passed, the excruciating pain began to gradually subside, and Daniel's body seemed to settle into its new state.
Surprisingly, there were no visible changes or mutations to his physical form.
His mind was filled with questions and doubts regarding the effects of the X Gene Modification Cells, but before he could dwell on them for too long, the system provided him with a prompt that would hopefully shed some light on the situation.
[: You have a mutant ability of Absolute Zero(S) :]
[: Absolute Zero(S) - The ability to freely manipulate and create Ice, and lower the temperature without any limitations or usage of mana :]
Out of all powers, he'd never expected to obtain another yet elemental power that seemed convenient for him. With his Jakasaka Bloodline, his elements abilities would have critical effects on his enemies.
Now that he had new profound powers, he couldn't wait to experiment with them out in the Modern Fantasia, but that would happen after things settled down in the world.
*Night Later*
In an opulent surroundings of a grand mansion, a gathering of high-status individuals dressed in extravagant attire filled the scene.
Amidst this sea of luxury, Daniel could be observed floating in the sky, his expression a mixture of amusement and disdain.
"So, the Unison Government has gathered, just as I expected," Daniel mused to himself, his eyes scanning the assembly below.
He couldn't help but view these people as little more than a troupe of clowns.
To him, their lofty justifications for unifying the government were nothing but a thin veneer concealing their insatiable greed for the treasures of Fantasia.
The individual who had proposed this unification could only be described as cunning, and their true motives were far from noble.
Daniel's presence at the extravagant gathering was not solely driven by curiosity or idle amusement.
He had a specific, clandestine agenda that had brought him to this opulent mansion on this particular evening.
What piqued his interest even more was the revelation that the very person who was supposed to be Cecilia's fiancé had also been extended an invitation to this gathering of high-status individuals.
His sharp eyes scanned the room until they fell upon Jason Kail, the man who had once been engaged to Cecilia.
The reason behind Daniel's covert intrusion into this celebration was clear, he intended to issue a stark and ominous "warning" to the influential figures who had gathered here.
The grand ballroom of the luxurious mansion had now filled to capacity with the arrival of numerous individuals, each more influential than the last.
The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation as Liam, the charismatic leader of the Unison Government, took center stage on the elegantly prepared dais.
Liam was a striking figure in his impeccably tailored grey suit.
His emerald-green eyes held a magnetic charm that drew attention whenever he entered a room, and his unusual green hair added an air of intrigue to his already captivating appearance.
As Liam gazed out at the sea of guests, many of whom were powerful and wealthy figures in their own right, a smile of satisfaction graced his lips.
It was a moment he had long anticipated, a culmination of careful planning and shrewd maneuvering.
'I wouldn't imagine this kind of situation to happen' He thought to himself.
'Well, thanks to Fantasia, my dreams are getting closer than I expected. It won't be long before I can grasp the world within my palms.'
The attendees, oblivious to the intricate web of schemes and ambitions that had brought them together, continued to mingle and converse, unaware of the true power play that was unfolding before their eyes.
Liam's eyes shimmered with an unmistakable greed, a desire that transcended the boundaries of what anyone in history had ever aspired to achieve.
His ambitions were not merely grand, they were colossal, capable of reshaping the very fabric of the world itself.
If he could achieve his great ambitions, perhaps the world would benefit from unprecedented prosperity and progress.
However, such lofty ambitions had the potential to unleash untold catastrophe.
Sometimes, an ambition that exceeded one's limits could lead to disaster, a lesson history had taught time and again.
"Ladies and gentlemen," Liam began, his voice commanding the attention of every guest in the room. With a wine glass held elegantly in his right hand, he continued, "May I have your attention, please."
Standing tall on an elevated platform, Liam's eyes surveyed the sea of individuals before him, each one a piece on the grand chessboard of his plans.
As he began to address the assembled guests, a low hum of murmurs and chattering filled the opulent mansion's air.
"First and foremost, before we delve into the formalities of this celebration," Liam's voice resonated with authority.
"I wish to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the sponsors and leaders of our nations who have contributed to this momentous alliance''
''Let us show our appreciation with a round of applause."
Liam initiated the applause, and the sound of clapping hands rippled through the crowd.
After a few moments, he continued his speech, each word calculated and laden with intent.
Liam continued with his speech, his words resonating with the gravity of the situation.
"Now, as all of you are aware, it has been nearly a month since the emergence of Modern Fantasia''
''For some, it has been a blessing, while for others, a curse," he stated, acknowledging the complex reality that had unfolded before them.
The audience nodded in solemn agreement.
Among all the nations, China and India had borne the brunt of the turmoil, their vast populations making the situation particularly challenging to manage.
Liam explained the reason behind their suffering, emphasizing a simple yet crucial point.
"The more abilities individuals possess, the more challenging it becomes to maintain control."
He then posed a thought-provoking question to the distinguished gathering.
"Moreover, what happens when a government deprives its own citizens of their livelihood, only to grant them unimaginable powers in return? What are the potential consequences of such actions?"
These questions hung in the air, leaving a sense of unease among the attendees.
Liam's voice resonated with fervor and determination as he continued.
"However, as leaders of our respective nations and as individuals entrusted with immense responsibility, we cannot simply ignore or deny the immense benefits that Fantasia has bestowed upon us."
He paused, allowing his words to sink in.
"The vast resources, the unprecedented powers, the cutting, edge technologies, and the very essence of evolution itself are now within our grasp, far beyond anything we have ever known or could ever hope to achieve in the future."
His passionate delivery kindled various shades of greed and ambition within the hearts of his audience, each leader contemplating the potential they could harness.
"Instead of shunning this opportunity or resisting its allure," Liam suggested, his eyes glittering with conviction.
"Shouldn't we harness it? Shouldn't we transform it into a force that can reshape the very foundations of our world, turning it upside down in ways previously unimaginable?"
His words hung in the air, stirring a sense of ambition and possibility among the assembled dignitaries.
