Transcendent Dawn

Morphy could sense that a being was gradually taking over his body, making his consciousness increasingly blurry.

In his spirit sea, the white demon appeared: “Leave everything to me, I’ll take revenge for you…”

The other party’s spirit was so vast and immense that Morphy’s slight resistance was crushed into pieces without making any difference.

“I…”

His obsession kept crying out, struggling: “I have to take care of my sister, I have to find out the truth about our parents’ ‘disappearance’…”

“So stubborn, these two obsessions…I will also make a promise to you.”

Su Lu said to Morphy.

He could feel that after making these promises, the other party’s consciousness slowly gave up struggling and gradually fell into silence.

“This is my promise, three things, I will fulfil them for you.”

Su Lu opened his eyes, looking at his body.

Slender figure, brown hair, burgundy pupils, wearing a neat black school uniform with vertical buttons.

“Not bad… at least the inspiration is high enough, it meets my requirements.”

Su Lu nodded satisfactorily: “Next… is to find the transcendent system of this world’s humans and develop it.”

As this body was planning to infiltrate the Abyss, it would be better not to use some external systems that could attract attention, just like Xu Changqing in the Weird Immortal World.

But this time, it was Su Lu who was taking action.

His spiritual body, or soul, had completely transferred into this body, and the original Star Tribe Code was useless.

“This kind of transfer…has strong side effects and cannot be done again. This body must be carefully used, it can’t be killed, otherwise, it could be troublesome…”

Su Lu was thinking of the ‘contract’ with Morphy.

This is a ‘contract’ between souls in a metaphysical sense, and it must be kept.

He would take revenge on the ones who had wronged Morphy for Ginny and others, take good care of Joanne, and pursue the truth of his parents’ disappearance during the Black Moon. As a trade-off, Morphy’s soul will completely disappear, so that he can blend perfectly with this body, so as to avoid the problem of disharmony when upgrading to a higher level occupational person in the future.

“Well, time to go home…”

Su Lu looked at the sky and swiftly destroyed the remains of the ritual.

…

No. 69 Black Iron Street.

Joanne was cooking a pot of mixed vegetable and pork soup. Seeing Su Lu coming in, she couldn’t help but frown: “Have you been drinking?”

As if thinking of something, her expression softened: “There’s meat soup for dinner tonight.”

‘Did she figure out that something happened to her brother, so she’s become more tolerant? Otherwise, she would have hit me, right?’

Su Lu looked at this so-called sister, found that she indeed resembled Morphy in some ways, same brown hair, burgundy eyes, and nodded: “Okay.”

At dinner, the two of them were very quiet, with only the sound of eating occasionally.

Su Lu soaked the bread in the soup, forcing himself to eat it.

Admittedly, the bitter taste of black bread, even with meat soup to cover it, was not very pleasant.

But such food, in his memory, was already pretty good.

“I’m full.”

He quickly finished his portion and stood up, ready to return to his room: “And… I’m fine!”

Seeing Joanne’s somewhat relieved expression, Su Lu closed the door and sat at his desk.

He had already read those books once in Morphy’s memory, and now he has no interest in reading them again.

“Current plan… revenge on Ginny, improve family living… Hmm, the revenge can be put on hold, as it requires preparation. The priority is to improve living conditions.”

Joanne works in a machinery factory, responsible for assembling metal components.

It’s said some large factories have started to replace the assembly line, using mechanical arms to replace human labour, which means the remaining workers must do more to avoid being laid off, competing with machines for a job.

Such as accepting more overtime, less pay, etc., the conditions are very poor.

Improving her sister’s life was also one of Morphy’s last wishes.

“This seems simple, even with the Star Devourer technology I have, merely releasing one piece would be a revolutionary invention, but… the traditions of this world don’t seem great. And Morphy’s social status is too low, even a graduation project was stolen…”

After becoming Morphy, Su Lu has to consider how to explain in case the technology leaks.

This could not be covered up merely by calling himself a high school mechanical apprentice.

“It seems… it is necessary to go to a high-level mechanical academy for training. There may be the existence of a transcendent inheritance — Mechanic Master.”

Su Lu pondered.

This world was obviously a mix of mystical and mechanical styles.

The corresponding profession change existed in the Main World as well – the [Mechanical Master] of the fourth level, capable of competing with the weakest of the fifth level!

This was studied by the [Arcanist] of the Green Tree Castle and was not perfected yet.

“But, the transcendent system of another world can’t be copied to this world… I’d better follow the original transcendent path of this world.”

Su Lu pulled a piece of draft paper from the side and began to quickly design: “At the moment… this body is too weak, it must also have some power, to make up for the lack of the transcendent.”

His idea was similar to Morphy’s, which is to design a set of low-end, cost-effective, ordinary exoskeleton mecha without neural links.

“First, design a set of jumping booster devices, ensuring that all materials can be found or purchased locally…hmm, it would be better to add some special abilities.”

On the knowledge and basis of mechanics, Su Lu was miles ahead of Morphy; he was very experienced with this kind of thing.

By midnight, he looked out at the dark and lightless environment outside the window and suddenly shuddered: “Is this the ‘Black Moon Phenomenon’?!”

It represented a night without light; rumors said it was the time when beasts roamed freely.

And Morphy’s parents died in an accident on such a night!

Of course, the boy refused to accept this and claimed that they had just ‘disappeared’ or ‘gone missing’.
