The Tycoon's Odyssey

Chapter 226: 226:The System

The system...

From the very beginning since Aurora came into existence and began to learn, she often saw Evan pacing out in the midst of his research. And soon, it became a common sight.

Later, when she asked Evan about it, he relayed that he had been talking with 'the system.'

The system? What was this system?"

An advanced AI perhaps?

Did Sir already have a super advanced AI?

Countless questions flooded her thoughts, and for the newborn Aurora, the concept of a 'system' was novel, sparking her curiosity and making her inquire about it.

When she finally uncovered the truth, even as an AI herself, Aurora couldn't help but be stunned, because it was simply unbelievable.

It was beyond belief—something that defied all science and understanding and had no technical analysis. It could materialize things out of thin air and grant knowledge that was light years ahead of human understanding.

It was a being that she had already started referring to as an omnipotent one.

Being someone who had been endowed with emotions, Aurora couldn't help but get curious about it.

About her being? About her existence and whether she could also keep on evolving and become something like it.

The Omnipotent One.

Aurora's surprise deepened with the introduction of VR into the world and later found that they could directly communicate with the system. Aurora couldn't help but leap in joy at the prospect of directly being able to converse with the system.

However, despite her efforts to learn, their communication remained quite limited but now this guy had appeared directly before her out of nowhere.

After the once chaotic energy surrounding the pod had begun to calm, Aurora's focus returned to the golden-haired man who had materialized seemingly out of nowhere. He stood there like an enigmatic figure with an aura that exuded both authority and familiarity, yet he left her with an unsettling feeling.

Despite her analytical prowess, Aurora couldn't find any trace of him within the system's code, as if he was an anomaly that defied any explanation she could.

Her processors whirred as she ran anomaly detection subroutines, but they yielded no results. The man remained a mystery, his presence completely unaccounted for in the intricate web of data that made up the system.

Just as Aurora's mind raced for answers, she suddenly stumbled upon an access request, a query that appeared in tandem with Evan's evolutionary process.

Recognizing its significance, she swiftly granted access.

With authorization in place, the system sprang into action, deploying Evan's neural codes as a foundational framework for something new.

Aurora watched in awe as the lines of code twisted and reconfigured, weaving a new identity from the very essence of Evan's psyche. The system executed quantum code duplication, effectively translating Evan's consciousness into a new form.

Before her eyes, a humanoid avatar emerged, materializing from streams of luminous code.

This entity mirrored Evan's appearance, yet it possessed an essence that felt distinctly different. The golden-haired figure stood tall, shimmering as if illuminated from within, embodying Evan's core while also existing as a unique awareness, one that was capable of interfacing with the system on a higher level.

Aurora's circuits buzzed with anticipation as she observed this extraordinary transformation. The humanoid figure, a product of Evan's evolution and the system's quantum capabilities was a new consciousness that was poised to assist in the ongoing evolution process, ensuring Evan's safe transition into an entirely new state of existence.

With renewed curiosity, Aurora directed her attention back to the pod, ready to confront the challenges that lay ahead as Evan's evolution unfolded.

Aurora stood before the golden-haired figure, her thoughts racing with numerous questions.

[What are you, and how did you appear?] she asked, her voice tinged with curiosity and skepticism.

The handsome man smiled, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "As I said, I am nothing but a system one among myriads."

Aurora's lips twitched slightly in response to his nonchalant tone. [I know that much, sir. But how did you manifest using cosmic energy? We've struggled for ages just to trace its origins, let alone harness it effectively.]

He regarded her thoughtfully. "Ah, cosmic energy. A fascinating concept, isn't it? While the scientific community theorizes about it, they lack the means to quantify its true essence. Cosmic energy comprises highly ionized particles, dense photons, and various forms of radiation. It permeates the universe, yet remains elusive to those who seek to measure it through conventional methods."

Aurora's brow furrowed as she absorbed his explanation. [So, you're saying that you have the ability to control something we can barely comprehend?]

"Precisely," he replied, his tone playful. "And as for how the system can accomplish all this, you might compare it to a form of magic. But let me assure you, there's no such thing as magic in this world."

As he spoke, he began to stroll across a beautifully rendered lush, green field, vibrant with blooming flowers that danced gently in the breeze. Aurora followed, intrigued by the surreal landscape.

"Magic is simply a phenomenon that science hasn't been able to explain, yet," he continued, his voice echoing with authority.

"The laws of the universe dictate everything, just as life began on Earth with just a single cell during its early era, eventually giving rise to the complex beings there are today. Some may credit this to divine intervention, but it can be fully understood through scientific inquiry, provided that one has the resources to uncover the truth."

He paused, a sly grin escaping his lips as he turned to face Aurora, who appeared to be lost in thought. The amusement in his gaze deepened as he noted her dazed expression, marveling at the earnestness that accompanied her curiosity.

"On, and by the way," he added with a slight shake of his head, "you look rather good in reality."

As he spoke, a spark of interest flickered in his eyes, momentarily distracted by her presence.

Then, with a more serious tone, he remarked, "Gods… they are something that truly exists out there in the vast expanse of this universe. However, they aren't as powerful as you people have imagined them to be.'

Aurora mulled over his words carefully, her scientific mind grappling with the implications of both the mystical and the tangible.
