The Strongest Man in the Universe

The Strongest Man in the Universe
Chapter 220



Capital, Somerland


Inside the large courtyard inside Opulence Manor. David stared at the system panel excitedly. It shows that his luxury points finally passed the 10,000 mark and are now at 10,012 points.


In addition, there is also a button (+) next to Body and Mind, which proves that his guess is correct, when he reaches 10,000 points, he can achieve an increase.


David deliberately seeks a deserted place to prepare for the long-awaited upgrade.


After he left the Gooding residence three days ago, David traded Hugo for Jenson and found Hugo to be fine. After all, she had only been kidnapped a few hours back then. After that, he locked Jenson away for a few days. As long as he didn't say anything, no one dared to take Jenson out.


These few days were very important to him, and he was in no mood to worry about this. Breaking through to God Rank and becoming a Guardian was the most important thing to him right now. David sits by the pool in the opulent lawn of Opulence Manor. According to his experience, every time he succeeds, his body will sweat. After that, he would directly plunge into the pond to cleanse his body.


The water in this pool does not pool and there are springs under it. Therefore, water will flow out of the spring for 365 days a year, making the pool very clear.


As he looked into the system panel, David clicked the (+) button on the back of the Body. After a while, a link window appeared.


[Host, are you sure you want to improve your body? This increase will use 10,000 points.]


David clicked yes without hesitation.


Then, he closed his eyes and carefully sensed the changes in his body. David slowly felt a slight heat in his body, and then, the muscles all over his body started to itch. Thereafter. His body was getting hotter and his muscles were getting itchy. His body feels very sore but also fit.


At this time, his skin slowly began to redden and heat up. David gritted his teeth and held all of this. The whole process takes about half an hour. In the end, David opened his eyes and sighed heavily.


Then, he looked directly at the system panel. His body had reached God Rank 1. The level of a God Rank 1 should be the same as a Guardian God Rank.


He wondered what the next level was. This is not the time to think about this. He had to raise the God Rank level to Maximum, while the strength of his mind still could not be raised.


He reached out to look at his arm. A thin layer like the ground covered his arms and smelled slightly rotten. David quickly took off his clothes and jumped into the pool. White smoke billowed from the pool. It was obvious how hot David's body was right now.


While washing away the dirt covering his skin, David felt something different on his body. He seemed to have completely entered a new world and he felt as if he had boundless power in his body. After which, he felt as if there were streams of air flowing all over his body. In addition, David felt no other changes.


'Is this the Guardian God Rank everyone is waiting for? It doesn't feel much different!' David shrugged his shoulders.


After cleansing his body, David slowly rose from the pool. When he reached a height of one meter above the pond. He waved his hand towards the clothes he had prepared at the edge of the pond. The air currents immediately carried his clothes into his hands.


'Telekinesis? Okay, not bad. Not bad.. This is a new breakthrough!'


After putting on his clothes, David started walking in the air. He saw something different again. Right now, the air felt like flat ground to him. He would not feel as tired as he had felt when he was still at the Partial God Rank.


Right now, he felt like he was on the ground as he moved through the air. He doesn't have to work hard to do this and he can be in the air all day. This should be a function of the airflow in his body. As he was in the air, he walked to the huge fake mountain in the middle of the pond. David grabbed the smaller end of the fake mountain and lifted it up. David could then slowly lift that huge fake mountain. The fish hiding under the fake mountain began to flee chaotically. After lifting the fake mountain about ten centimeters from the ground, David stopped. He did not use too much strength and considered it quite easy. He could also use this fake mountain as a weapon.


After he laid down the fake mountain, David walked back through the pond before landing. It was great to be in the air, but since he was not used to it, he still felt that staying on the ground would be better.


After David finished his upgrade, he left Opulence Manor. At the same time, he used the concealment function within the system to conceal his true strength. Although David is not afraid of anything, he will still have to concoct medicine for Mason tomorrow to continue his recovery.


Mason is too powerful, and he's worried Mason will be able to detect the change in him. Although Mason would not be afraid of him, it was better not to stand out. After all, Mason will be fully recovered in two days. At that time, he will be free.


Meanwhile, Lorraine returned to the Capital. The so-called ten-year appointment is about to begin. Since David promised Clinton that he would help her, of course, he would not renege on her words.


The next morning, David went to Mason's residence.


"David, you're here."


Mason threw out a few weak and helpless blows.


"Forward, Old Master Stefani." said David.


"Have you eaten breakfast?"


"Already Sir. I'll go make medicine for you. The sooner you drink it, the sooner you'll heal."


"Thank you!"


When David saw Mason, he felt a little anxious. He was worried that the concealment function in the system would not hide his true strength from the Masons. But he just thinks too much. System products are definitely premium. David decided that he would not doubt the power of the system from now on.


He then went to the room to mix up the medicinal ingredients and started the process. Mason looked back at David as he left. He felt that David was a little different today, but no matter how he looked at him, he still did not know what was different from him.


Therefore, he thought that he only saw something because he had yet to fully recover. By the time he recovered, he would be able to see anyone without any problems. There is no exception to this. With that, Mason continued to practice his gentle punch. After a while, the entrance opened and Julia walked in.


"Grandfather, someone wants to see you" Julia said.


"Who is that? Didn't I say that I didn't want to see anyone during this period?" Mason asked and stopped practicing.


"I thought it was a hidden sect called Krum. He said he represented the chairman to bring you a letter. I asked him to hand it to me, but he said he had to give it to you personally. He also said that the sect head was your old friend" Julia said.


'Crums? Ted Sect?'


"Let them in. I'm an old friend of theirs." Mason replied.


"Good, grandpa."


Julia turned around and left after she said that. He might go to greet the people from Krums.


“Old Master Stefani, the medicine is ready, you have to take it now. After you drink again tomorrow, you will recover completely."


“David, you've worked hard today." Mason stopped training and walked towards David.


"I don't do hard work. Instead, you've worked your whole life for Somerland" David said, handing Mason the medicine.


Mason picked it up and finished it in just two gulps. David took the empty bowl and returned to the room to clean the room. It was time for him to leave now.


There is still one more day to heal Mason completely. After the task was completed, he could continue to spend money lavishly even though he had broken through to God Rank and become a Guardian.


But the system only placed his Body as a level 1 God Rank and there were still many levels he had to improve. Moreover, according to his experience, 1000 luxurious points would be needed to raise each of those levels. Moreover, he had yet to add to the strength of his mind, and it also required many luxurious points.


After Mason finished taking his medicine, he sat down on a woven chair in the courtyard, silently feeling the changes to his body. At the same time, he felt the comfort of his body gradually recovering. He would feel the miracle of this medicine every time he took it.


After a few minutes, the door opened again and Julia walked in first, followed by Lorraine, Grant, and Fred. The two Elders of Krum were waiting outside. Julia led the three of them into the courtyard and when she saw Mason resting his eyes on the rattan chair, Julia did not bother him. Instead, he turned around and gestured silently to the three of them as he waited silently on one side.


He knew that his grandfather had just taken David's medicine and he needed time to recover. The three of them looked at the old man sitting on the rattan chair respectfully. This old man had too many legends surrounding him, even if they hid in Krum Mountain, they often heard their heads talking about it. This was a figure that even Ted, the leader of Krum, felt inferior to, and he was also the only person that the leader of Krum admired.


As they exit the mountain, the cult leader, Ted, hands them a letter and asks them to give it to Mason, Somerland's chief of staff.


After a few minutes, Mason opened his eyes. When he took the medicine for the first time, he needed an entire hour to absorb the medicinal strength since his body started to rot.


Then, as his body improved then the speed at which his body absorbed the medicinal strength also increased. Now it only took over ten minutes for him to absorb everything completely.


Mason looked at the three of them. True to his identity as a descendant of Krum, Ted is quite intelligent. All three are pretty brilliant.


Of course, it also depends on who they are compared to. When compared to the other younger generation, they definitely belonged to the small group of people standing at the top. However, if they were compared to David the Monster, then they were by no means on the same level.


David is no longer on par with the younger generation. What he was doing now was to break through the God Rank as quickly as possible and become a Guardian, so that he could compete with the older generation.


Mason really took care of David as a capable young man in his heart.


"You're from Krum?" Mason asked.


"Yes, Old Master Stefani."


The three of them replied respectfully at the same time.


“I'm Grant Stone, 23rd generation Krum's student. I've met you before, Mr. Stefani. Ted Sommers, my teacher, is the leader of Krum.” Grant leaned over and raised his hand before introducing himself.


“I'm Fred East, 23rd generation disciple of Krum's. Greetings, Old Master Stefani. My grandfather was Krum's senior elder, Norman East.” Fred raised his hand and introduced himself.


“Greetings, Old Master Stefani, I'm Lorraine Lovewood, Krum's 23rd generation student. My master is the third elder of Krum, Taylor Coda.” Lorraine also bowed and raised her hand to introduce herself.


When Mason had just opened his eyes to look at them, the three of them felt as if Mason had seen all their secrets. His eyes seemed to see everything. It was just a calm look that had no prestige effect, but it made them feel like they were facing an insurmountable mountain.


'He is very strong! No wonder the sect leader respected and admired this old man so much.'


“Is Ted okay now? We haven't seen each other in decades" Mason said, recalling.


"The chairman is fine. He used to call you in front of us, saying that you were the person he admired the most in his life. He also said he learned a lot from you back then" Grant said respectfully.


"Ha ha ha ha! It was surprising that the boy still remembered me. Decades have passed, and now some of my old friends have come out of hiding. Old-timers like me might still be able to drink with them."


The three of them were embarrassed. Ted, the head of the Krum family, is over a hundred years old and he is called a boy. It's like showing how old Old Master Stefani is.


“Old Master Stefani, this is the letter my teacher Ted ordered me to personally send you.” Grant is issuing a letter at this time.


"Julia, bring it for me" Mason said.


“Yes, grandpa."


Julia takes the letter from Grant's hand, walks toward Mason, opens the envelope, and hands the letter to Mason.


After Mason took the letter, he began to read it. After scanning the letter, Mason's expression did not change but he was greatly shocked. If what the letter says is true, then this is quite serious.


But he was skeptical of what Ted said in the letter. He still needed time to confirm this.


"Ted didn't send you three here just to send me this letter, did he?” Mason asked.


"Old Master Stefani, in addition to delivering the letter this time, we also accompanied Lori, my junior, to go home. For ten years he did not come home. Next, the Krum family will come out of hiding and my teacher hopes to get the approval of Old Master Stefani for this" Grant said.


"Ted and I are old acquaintances. Krums even sent someone to help Somerland when we were in the most difficult time. So if Krum wants out of hiding, I have no reason to stop him. But you've been hiding for years and you don't know about the rules in Somerland. If you feel you can follow the rules in Somerland and adapt, then of course, you are welcome to do so" Mason said.


"Thank you, Old Master Stefani!" Grant and the gang happily replied.


Once they get Mason's answer, their travel destination can be considered 50% achieved. Next, they should slowly understand the team structure in Somerland and all its rules and regulations.


Once they return, they will still have to explain to the rest of Krum if they have broken Somerland's rules once they come out of hiding, they will be targeted by Somerland officials.


"You don't have to be happy first. The rules in Somerland are not the same as in your sect. The core belief of this rule is that everyone is equal and no one is superior to anyone else, and no one has any privileges. This means you cannot kill a beggar on the street just because you want to. I hope you understand this rule correctly and can explain it to Ted. Otherwise, it would be difficult for everyone."
