Chapter 196: Ch 196: The Symbols
Other than those ferocious creatures, Emrys also noticed that he was embraced by a water bubble.
Yes, he was lying inside a huge water bubble. This bubble not only kept the surrounding water at bay, creating a barrier around him, but it also provided him with air to breathe. The bubble seemed to shimmer with a soft light, casting a gentle glow on Emrys and his surroundings.
The water outside the bubble was dark and deep, filled with shadowy shapes which are those ferocious transparent creatures that darted through the gloom. Yet, inside the bubble, it was calm and still. It was as if the bubble was a protective cocoon in the midst of an underwater abyss.
As he lay there, the reality of his situation began to sink in. The bubble was keeping him safe, providing him with the air he needed to survive in this underwater world. Without it, he would be at the mercy of the cold, dark water and the creatures lurking just beyond the thin barrier.
Emrys wondered how this bubble had formed around him.
Was it some kind of artifact’s power?
Or perhaps it was a natural phenomenon of this strange place?
Whatever the case, it was clear that the bubble was the only thing standing between him and the dangers of the deep.
He took a deep breath, feeling the cool air fill his lungs. Then he shifted his attention once again, locking on his own body.
Yes, his body was completely different from before.
Emrys was astonished to see countless bizarre symbols squirming on his skin. These symbols were exactly the ones he had seen at the bottom of the pool before fainting.
Now, these symbols somehow ended up attaching themselves to Emrys’s body. It is also due to these symbols his body suddenly gained a hundredfold weight. These symbols are also the reason why he was unable to open his eyelid.
Shockingly, Emrys felt a sense of deja wu as he observed these symbols. It was as if he had seen these symbols somewhere before, but he can’t remember exactly where.
Suddenly, as if a bolt of lightning struck his mind, his entire body shuddered despite its weight.
He remembered that he had seen these symbols before.
Aren’t these symbols the exact ones inscribed on the surface of Space Disk?
When he saw the Space Disk for the first time, he saw countless intricate patterns on its surface. Those patterns were mysterious and closely related to the very fabric of space.
At that time, he was able to light up only one pattern with the entire Space Energy inside his body. He felt as if he was being pulled into a different dimension.
Now, those exact patterns were inscribed on his body. Since his body was much larger than the small disk, the patterns appeared clearer and more distinct. It was only now that Emrys realized these were not just intricate patterns or lines, but rather mysterious symbols.
Patterns could also be symbols. There is no doubt about it. However, the patterns on the space disk felt more like lines intersecting and criss-crossing. Only now did Emrys understand that they were symbols.
Emrys thought of something and immediately looked at his information panel. He wanted to confirm something.

.....
As expected, there were changes.
Previously, he only had Level 1 Space Body, but now, his space body has somehow become True Space Body. The level was still the same.
Other than that, he somehow obtained another new attribute called Authority. He currently has authority over space. Of course, his authority was also defined by level, and his current level of authority was one.
"What does Authority mean?"
Emrys couldn’t help but mutter. Unfortunately, there was no answer.
From a god-like perspective, Emrys noticed something else. These symbols appeared to be merging with his body. Although they had not yet fully integrated, they were in the midst of becoming a part of him.
This was something unknown, and when an unknown happens, it brings along a deep fear.
Emrys was also frightened. Since he didn’t know how these symbols appeared on his body and why they were becoming a part of him, he was terrified.
What would happen if he transformed into some kind of monster?
Strange and horrible thoughts started appearing in his mind.
However, even if he wanted to, there was nothing he could do. He can only look as the symbols continue to integrate with his body.
It seemed the integration process would take a long time to complete. Emrys guessed that he might be able to control his body after the complete fusion of these symbols with his existence.
Since that’s the case, he looked elsewhere. He could see everything within a radius of 50 kilometers. The pool spanned for only ten kilometers and that is only in height. Its length and width were very small. There were a lot of places that were in his view. It is just that he didn’t look at them.
Glancing at other sides, Emrys was surprised to find that this entire cavernous space was completely shrouded in fog. There was actually nothing here.
No, there was something!
He could see a huge crystal mountain at the end of the cavernous space.
Yes, a crystal mountain!
If Emrys wants, he could mine small and big crystals from this crystal mountain, and an uncountable number of them at that.
However, Emrys didn’t have that thought. The instant he saw this crystal mountain, he wanted to absorb the energy present within. This entire crystal mountain was actually filled with extremely pure Space Energy.
No longer could they be called energy; this substance was purer than energy itself. It also possessed a higher level of quality and concentration.
It was force; Space Force.
