Blood Assimilation

Chapter 153 - Recalling History(1)



At this point, the middle-aged man carefully observed this young man with scrutinizing gaze for a brief moment. And based on his figure and facial appearance, he could guess that he was about 18 to 19 years old. 

However, as the young man approached his station, his attention was elsewhere. He was staring intently at the dimensional rift that remained open as he walked, and then all of a sudden, as if recalling something, the young man turned around and then left the place.

"…" 

This situation left the middle-aged man baffled, and he then wondered: "Wasn\'t he here to sign up to become a seeker? Why did he suddenly turn around and leave? Ah, whatever, it is also a good thing that he left. Maybe he changed his mind at the last minute? At any rate, a young man like him shouldn\'t  be risking his life by coming here in the first place." 

The person who came to the abandoned building just now was Randy. He indeed came to register to become a seeker— one that explores other worlds that exist beyond the dimensional rifts. 

One might think, why would he do such a thing? And what would he gain by becoming a seeker? 

In any case, there are many benefits to becoming a seeker. Some people become a seeker mainly to become famous for surviving the other world and become instantly rich overnight. 

That was simply because most seekers usually become stronger coming back from the other world. And they could earn money by selling the valuable items or resources that they do not need for money and or simply because they had important information from the other side. 

That was because the government would always require their aid to compile the necessary pieces of information for future exploration. 

Naturally, they get paid handsomely for selling the information about the other world and so one could only imagine how rich they would become. 

But all this was only possible if one survived the other world.

As for others, the reason why they chose to become seekers was that they were poor. 

But after they awakened to their abilities, they decided to bet with their lives by venturing into the strange worlds beyond the dimensional rifts. 

Their only purpose was to gain enough resources to train their abilities or profession. After all, strength was the most significant thing in this world, whether for protecting yourself from the invasion of otherworldly creatures or earning money. 

However, Randy was not trying to become a seeker simply because he wanted to be famous or escape poverty. He just wanted to gain experience and get stronger hopefully through this adventure. 

He had always had a weird fascination with the worlds behind the rifts ever since he was young but never would have thought that he would one day decide to travel to one of them. 

After all, he had heard that the death rates were high but so were the benefits if one succeeded.

As he thought of this, he continued to walk away, but not back home this time. He was now going to purchase some potions and maybe some weapons if he had enough money in the commercial section of the city. 

As he walked down the street, he saw various people doing their own thing. Some kids who looked like high school students were busy going about their ways, and other young kids were scolded anxiously by their parents for leaving their side. 

As he reached the commercial section, some people had just arrived at a shop, seemingly about to work part-time, and others were departing the shops with items that they purchased from the shops.

All in all, this was a very peaceful city, and there were not that many crimes going on in this city, so it was relatively safe. 

But then again, this peaceful atmosphere in this city could turn chaotic very quickly. That was if a sudden and dangerous dimensional rift or a moderately safe dimensional gate were to appear right now. 

If one wanted to understand the reason for the appearance of dimensional rifts or dimensional gates, then one would have to visit the history books in the public libraries or attend any institution in this world. 

As for Randy and the others who were fortunate enough to attend school, their teachers made them memorize the contents in the history books from a very young age. 

Randy had learned about the dimensional rifts and gates early on because of this. He was even aware of the various theories devised over the years after the appearance of dimensional rifts and dimensional gates.

But before that, one would have to know about the dimensional gates and dimensional rifts and when they started appearing— which was around a few decades ago.

One day, on a quiet day like any other, all over the world, mysterious objects suddenly appeared, arousing the attention of everyone that saw them.

And the strange part was that these objects all appeared in cubic shapes with varying sizes and colors, and many people who saw them were wondering what the origin behind could be these strange objects that hovered close to the ground. 

Soon enough, the governments from different countries blocked and restricted people from getting close to the strange objects.

But shortly after, they could not control the situation anymore as more of these strange objects kept appearing all over, seeming endless. 

Eventually, an otherworldly and mysterious voice echoed in everyone\'s ears. Everyone all across the world could hear the same mysterious voice. 

⟪All living being across this low dimensional world at the periphery of all dimensions. Heed my warning, for your dimension, is now about to face an apocalyptic event. An event that could bring about the end to all living beings within this dimension. A destructive chaotic fluctuations coming from an unknown source has caused all dimensional barriers to become unstable, allowing strong and powerful entities to traverse the dimensional barriers without much effort⟫

⟪In according to the protocol established since time immemorial, I shall aid in the awakening of all living beings in this dimension. And to ensure your survival, I shall implement the statistic mechanism in all of you as a means to guide you in using your newly acquired abilities. Some would obtain unimaginable powers right away, and those beings with strong powers would aid in defeating the aggressive creatures that are trying to escape their destroyed worlds into this seemingly peaceful null world with no supernatural powers and many other worlds that have yet to succumb to destruction⟫

⟪These dimensional prisons were created to keep the most aggressive creatures from the other worlds from coming over to this powerless dimension. In the meantime, everyone would have to awaken to their abilities and challenge or negotiate with the creatures in these dimensional prisons⟫

⟪Succeeding in defeating the living beings in the dimensional prisons would grant you resources and a means to get stronger, and if you succeed in negotiation, you might get new means and methods to improve your low-level civilization⟫

⟪During the next cycle, in other words, the next 24 hours, all the living beings within this dimension would have to be exposed to the many extradimensional energies that originated from the many destroyed worlds. Some of the other worlds might still be intact. You can only access these worlds through the dimensional rifts that would soon appear in this dimension in a while due to the dimensional distortion⟫

⟪The dimensional rifts are, in a sense, portals that lead to other dimensions besides your own. Only after the exposure to the energies from those dimensions would the requirements be met and for the induction of awakening to truly begin. Best of luck to all the living beings in this dimension⟫

When everyone heard this seemingly mysterious voice that said so many unbelievable words, they thought that perhaps they might have been hearing things— in other words, maybe they had just experienced an auditory hallucination. 

But how could so many people have the same auditory hallucination or even hear the same voice in their minds?
