I am the God of Technology

Chapter 149 Dante’s Ambition



Chapter 149 Dante's Ambition

What was Solaris saying? That out there were millions of superpower users from his home universe who had gathered here to absorb Zero Energy?

Dante's mind almost exploded. One should know that even the Eternal Universe, with its greatly developed superpowered society, did not have so many superpowered users due to the limited amount of Fruits of Condensation.

Not to mention that their superpowered users were not all gathered in one place. The Eternal Academy kept the younglings, while various organizations, factions, and alumni groups kept the veterans.

Dante had taken it for granted, just like any other student of the school, when they were told that the Headmistress deterred all other forces from fighting over the Zero Gate. It hadn't hit until now that if all the factions gathered like this, they could swarm the school to death.

Yet they still didn't dare to face Lara head-on. Just how powerful was that woman? Or probably, how powerful was her reputation?

Dante realized that because Beatrice didn't see Lara as much of a big deal, he too had subconsciously assumed that thought. Even when she shattered his Inferno Ascension technique's illusion back then, he only acknowledged that she was stronger, but not how much stronger.

If Dante wanted to monopolize the Zero Gate, he would need to have the deterring power that Lara did, as well as the reputation that was needed to spread it.

Dante damn rapidly calmed himself down and thought. From the fact that there was no fighting here and everyone was peacefully absorbing energy, a system had likely been developed that designated where one could sit and absorb.

Not to mention that they were all using the same shabby technology to survive in space, so it was likely that one faction manufactured and likely provided this. Whether that same faction controlled the allocation of the various species was unknown.

For the first time, Dante felt weak. His 1000 point SDI which made him a god on earth and any planet was so weak and meaningless in the void of space. Even his Spirit Sense, which made him unbeatable in the True Martial World with a whole 1 kilometer of range, was ant-like in space.

It was like Lara said when she was dealing with Dante. He was barely reaching the peak of the planetary level, not even reaching the galactic or universal level, much less high dimensional.

If he wanted to walk in space, he needed a minimum of 10,000 points in all stats to barely qualify. Even Beatrice stated that with 20,000 points, she could not stay in space for too long unless she turned on his Bionics and Psionics.

Dante's eyes became bloodshot. He wished for more power so desperately right now that his body temperature was rising, and space began to crack around him as his two magical powers intensified.

Eventually, he calmed himself down again and pondered. He calculated a few things with his AI chip and found that the cost of setting up a space base was around 10,000 Etrans if he footed the bill alone.

One should know, his current top-of-the-line base on earth only cost less than 100 Etrans to make. It was clear that the requirements and criteria that a space base needed were far more stringent, but the benefits were great.

Dante did not have the same qualms in the real world as he did in the quantum worlds. He did not need to hold back, and if starting an intergalactic war was necessary to take over, then he would do so.

Dante suddenly laughed, and he felt extremely cathartic as he did so. He realized the stupidity of his tunnel-visioned thinking, and found it amusing.

Why did he need to resolve everything with his own raw power like some brute? Was using hellfire or space spells the only thing he could do? Since when did he start thinking that everything had to be done through them?

When he arrogantly planned to conquer both universes, all he had to his name was his foundation, Quantum Entanglement. Yet he had been so confident and had taken every step forward to the fullest of his ability.

And he still was!

His base on earth was equipped with everything needed to progress in this universe! Even if Quantum Entanglement disappeared today and he could not return to the Eternal universe, he could still dominate the home universe because he had copied everything needed over!

Even if he lacked something, a building, technology, or component, he could build it!

The universe was his oyster!

Endless materials floated in space that could be used to build anything he wanted.

Even the Eternal Universe, which was far ahead in technology and had been harvesting and mining for millennia, was not even 5% done with the resources found in space. That Thanos-like rubbish of limited resources was utter nonsense; could you even comprehend the vastness of space?

Not to mention, each universe is expanding and taking on new space, producing new materials and lifeforms. There were millions of planets in the Eternal Universe that were like Earth, completely habitable and tameable, that were void of advanced life and only had the most basic species maintaining the ecosystem.

Much less the home universe.

Fine, Dante might not be able to quickly deter all forces in his home universe using his raw martial power, but if that door was closed, then he would forcefully open the one where he would deter all forces using his technology.

Dante smiled. "Solaris, retreat to the edge of this spacer sector and maintain a permanent quantum scan. Update the central hub in the home base constantly with the details from your scans in real-time."

Solaris acknowledged the order and began moving. Meanwhile, Dante returned to his home base on Earth and glanced at the four androids who he had told to wait for him.

In truth, any of these four ladies could likely beat him to death in terms of raw SDI. When he bought them, he only requested a simple SDI sculpting of around 3000 points in all fields. That was even only because he bought from a very capable vendor on Planet Etonia.

According to Beatrice, the highest metal-based lifeforms like androids, cyborgs, or the like could go was 8000 points. The Prime Human Council monopolized the special technology needed to make robots reach 10,000 points in all stats.

However, robots could not use Bionics or Psionics, since they were already pre-equipped with them and were even why their SDI numbers could reach such high levels in the first place.

These four could likely tear apart a large number of these superpowered users at that place on their own, since they did not worry about the void of space and had thrusters, dark matter cannons, and the like.

But there was no need for hostilities. Intelligence was the true deciding factor in any conflict: how much you knew about your enemy versus how much they knew about you. Dante was in the dark, and they were in the light, so he would monitor the place over the next period of time and gain an understanding of its working.

For now, his base which was mostly relaxed began to enter a period of high-intensity work. Androids, weapons, and ships were being manufactured by the hour, and Dante wanted to build an armada that would slowly spread out from Earth as a starting point and conquer the entire galaxy.

As for his fellow ignorant humans, they could stick to fighting over social media and reading fantasy web novels all day; it was best for them that way. When they were ready to enter the stars, they would find that this universe already had an owner, and his name was Dante, a human of Earth like them!

Ambition burned in Dante, and he decided to channel it into his work. He was close to the next threshold anyway, so he dunked himself into his energy pool and began to soak in it while entering a sleep-like state.

6 hours later, he got up and began to practice the Primal Ape technique. He spent 1 hour training, which granted 8% progress in the technique, then 6 hours recharging, and so on.

From 73%, he went to 81% after one cycle, 89% after two cycles, and 97% after 3 cycles!

A total of 21 hours had passed, and it was already the next day, but Dante did not feel tired in the least. The young man usually did not have any pressure when doing things, mostly driven by his ambition to step forward.

So when pressure did come, though it was not necessarily a fatal one that demanded progress, it still galvanized him greatly and added on top of his already bustling work ethic.

Dante stopped here and decided to rest for a bit before breaking through his Knight Breathing technique. He once again jumped into the energy pool, and while he soaked in it for a long time, he suddenly opened his eyes with a bright light.

"I finally know what I am missing!"
