The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 534: A Barrier

"Ahem! Is there anything that you would like?" Henry coughed a little, to dispel the awkwardness before he asked. He was the man here, so, it was better for him to take the initiative to talk, instead of letting Alicia to do so. After all, ladies could easily get embarrassed, right?

When Alicia heard what Henry had said, she finally came back to her senses and stopped thinking about the changes that had happened to Henry. Instead, she decided to go straight to the point to address the reason why she had come over.

When she informed Henry about coming over for the skills, Henry could not help but be a little embarrassed. At the end of the day, he had been so busy that he even forgot about giving Alicia the skills.

Ever since the day that she had woken up, they had not talked that much. And with that, he had even forgotten that she required skills, considering that the only skills that she possessed were those that she had gotten during the time that she was still in the gold rank and below.

Immediately, took the skill scrolls from the idle space that matched the two elements that she possessed. Other than those skills, he even went ahead and gave her some life saving skills such as injury immunity that could be utilized by those in the divine rank, together with a skill that was going to be able to give her the ability to teleport.

It could be said that Henry did not hold back when giving things to Alicia. It was not only due to the fact that Alicia was a crucial part of the territory, among the few that he could trust, but it was also due to the fact that she was Adam’s sister.

Of course, that was also a selfish part, which made him to give her more items that could save her life. In fact, something like that was not something that he had done even to Adam for free. Even Adam had to gain it by providing mutation crystals before he could receive the skill scrolls.

Alicia had not expected that Henry was going to give her so many skills without asking for anything in return. Of course, she had already prepared mutation crystals to give to Henry, considering that she had already received information from Adam about how Henry operated.

But now, Henry had just given her the skills just like that without asking for anything in return. It could be said that this was kind of unexpected.

Just as she was still wondering if Henry was going to ask for the mutation crystals after giving her all these items, he realized that Henry had already began retreating back into the room.

At the same time, he spoke, "I have something else to take care of. You can go through those skill scrolls and items that I have given you. They should be able to help you in case you have any problem. If they are not enough, come back later and ask for more."

After saying those words, he went back into the room, before entering into the system space. At the moment, he wanted to know what rank lied beyond the divine rank. He had to be prepared in case there was actually somebody who had already gone beyond the divine rank.

Of course, he already knew that there was nobody who had gone beyond the divine rank within this world. But what could be said about those worlds that these members of the other races had come from? What about those worlds that Storm and the others had come from?

Then there was that world where Clinton came from. A world where dragons reigned supreme. Even with the power level that Clinton possessed at the moment, he believed that he would definitely not be able to dominate that world.

At most, he would be considered as a powerhouse of the middle level, and could not even be counted among the top experts. That was something that was extremely concerning to Henry.

If the apocalypse ended, and the humans managed to become the supreme race within this world, what would happen next? Would there be another invasion? Would they finally be able to leave this world?

Talking about leaving this world, Henry had already tried, but he realized that there was actually something that was preventing him from exiting this world.

Leaving a world was not something strange at all. Even before the apocalypse, scientists would be able to go out of the world and onto the moon and so on.

But the only problem here was the fact that even after reaching the divine rank, when he flew towards the sky, intending to see if he could leave this world, he suddenly realized that there was a barrier that was surrounding the entire world.

Just from observing it, he could tell that this barrier was extremely sturdy. Even with his full strength attack, he was not really sure if he could destroy it. But even then, he did not have the intention of trying it out, considering that he understood that the reason why this barrier existed here was simply because it had been set up by the one that was behind the apocalypse in this world.

How could Henry believe that the apocalypse was something that had happened naturally? That was an impossibility considering that the members of the other races coming into this world was something that had been arranged.

Each and every one of them had been approached by a mysterious existence that they could not tell what it was, and informed about the benefits and risks that came with joining the Apocalypse.

The dangers of the apocalypse were extremely high, but at the same time, the benefits that they would be offered were also incredibly high. If they really managed to become the dominant race in this world, they would definitely be able to receive greater benefits.

Henry did not know the reason why the apocalypse had been initiated into this world, but nevertheless, he believed that it was definitely not something good. How could he accept to be treated as a form of fun by somebody else?

Even if the apocalypse was not initiated into this world with the intention of some superior beings enjoying the show, still, he would have never wanted to have his fate being controlled by somebody else.

But right now, there was nothing that he could do against the ones that were behind the apocalypse. In fact, it was not as if he was blaming them or he resented them.

He understood one thing, the apocalypse was both danger and an opportunity. Without the apocalypse descending into this world, it was definitely going to be impossible for them to be able to evolve and gain the strength that they currently possessed.

It might be true that many people had died, but even then, it was true that without those people dying, the rest of the human race would have not been capable of getting stronger at all, and would have continued remaining in that situation where they only depended on science.

But even then, the only reason why he wanted to get stronger was so that he could break free from the control of the other party. No matter what, he did not want to be controlled any longer by the other party.

Alicia on the other hand looked at the door that had already been closed and remained silent for a while. Then, in the end, she simply shook her head and left. She was not sure about the reason why Henry had not asked for the mutation crystal, but thinking about it, it seemed that the mutation crystals were kind of useless to him, right?

Just his summoned creatures possessed enough capabilities in order to be able to hunt for those creatures that had already reached the divine rank. The divine rank mutation crystals could easily be gotten by them, and so, it was kind of useless to give Henry any more of them at the moment.

Deciding not to focus much on the matter, she decided to go ahead and use the skill scrolls, while at the same time, taking the items that she had been given by Henry so that she could use them well.

After learning all the skills from the skill scrolls, she made sure to replace all the low level skills that she possessed before.

Now that she had already learned the skills, she decided that it was time for her to go out and experience combat. So, she decided to go to the dungeon. She had already reached level nine of the divine rank, but even then, she could still access the dungeon.

It was a good thing that despite the fact that there was a limit to the number of people that could enter into the dungeon, there was always a small number that was reserved for the core members of the territory if they wanted to enter into the dungeon.

So, no matter what, the number of people entering into the dungeon would not exceed a certain limit. This was due to the fact that there was a group of people that was in charge of controlling the dungeon, and those that were entering into it.

Of course, it was not just a single dungeon that existed within the country, but instead, there was a total of 4. One of them was the one that was located in the previous vampire territory, and others had been found in different parts of the country.

Due to the advantages that the territory possessed due to the presence of dungeons in the country, the power of the territory kept on increasing as days went by. But of course, at some point in time, it was organized in such a way that only a certain category of people could enter into the dungeon.

In order to enter into the dungeon, one had to possess some merits for the territory first. Otherwise, they would definitely not be allowed to enter into the dungeon.
