Chapter 493: The Last Memory Spheres ( 4 )
The notifications continued as Shane excitedly read them all. He was looking forward to see if his guess was right.
[ Item Retrieved: Mythic Energy Blade – Eon Edge ]
[ Description: Forged from the purest energy crystals in the Anima Civilization, the Eon Edge is a weapon with immense power. It adapts to the wielder's energy signature, allowing seamless transitions between energy states, including plasma, light, and pure void. Capable of cutting through the strongest materials and emitting energy waves to strike distant targets. ]
"Finally… I have a better weapon. It's a good thing that the Ascension Quest's calculation didn't include this weapon." Shane smirked at the thought.
"Now, I'll be able to kill those two Lord Tier Zombies in the quest… Wait—Should I deal with the Lord Tier in that secret underground tunnel first?" Shane considered for a moment.
However, his surprise wasn't over just yet as he saw the other soulbound items he obtained.
[ Item Retrieved: Mythic Gate Stones x10 ]
[ Description: Mystical artifacts capable of creating stable, two-way portals between fixed points. Each Gate Stone can anchor a location, allowing for instantaneous travel. Stones can be reclaimed once deactivated, provided they are intact. ]
"Awesome…"
Shane's eyes widened as the Gate Stones were stored inside his Inventory.
He was so excited as he quickly pulled them out.
Ten smooth, obsidian-like stones glowed faintly in front of him. Each one was engraved with ancient markings or probably runes.
They weren't emitting any strange energy but it was mysteriously glowing even though it was very faint.
Anyway, he had used these Soulbound Items during the A.I. Rebellion Apocalypse to link critical points across war-torn continents to escape from the androids or to also provide support when the humans were fighting against the Vampires and Androids at the same time.
'This is really good…'
In this world, their potential was limitless. With the Gate Stones, Shane could finally realize his vision of a connected network of Shelters, offering safety, trade, and coordination against the threats posed by Zombies or even Vampires.

He could even consider placing these in allied Shelters!
He clenched the stones tightly as he imagined what he would do with these incredible items he had just obtained.
A wide grin spread across Shane's face as he held the Gate Stones and the Eon Edge. "These are the answers I've been waiting for," he muttered. "With these, I can protect help protect what I've built if really needed. I can also start expanding my Shelters!"
He had several Shelter Crystals in his possession right now and it should be a bad idea to start using them now.
Well, if this abandoned town had some other resources they could exploit, he wouldn't considered building a shelter here.
However, this place doesn't even have a source of clean water, so he had to forget this idea.
He would surely find a better place to build a shelter once he entered Sector 20. That shouldn't take very long since they were already getting close to the Sector.
'Right… Can I use it the same way as before?' Shane thought. He wasn't sure if there were any changes to the item, so he quickly checked its current description.
As he confirmed that it was the same, the system even provided him a prompt on how to use it!
"Ohh…" Shane couldn't only feel impressed as he read the prompt.
[ Gate Stones: Usage Guide ]
Activation: Hold a Gate Stone at your desired location and infuse it with Spirit to anchor the portal. Cost: 5,000 Spirit Points
Linking: Use a second Gate Stone at a different location to connect both points. Portals are instantaneous and stable. Cost: 5,000 Spirit Points
Limitations: Each Gate Stone requires a cooldown period of 24 hours after activation or relocation. Portals can be used indefinitely as long as the Gate Stones are in place. Any damages sustained by the Gate Stone during the transport might cause irreversible damage. ]
'Well, we just have to be careful not to touch the stone during the transport and we should be fine…' Shane thought as he believed that placing barriers would be appropriate in this situation.
Shane's heart pounded with excitement.
"If I can set up gates between my shelters, our Clan will definitely become the Rank 1 soon…" Shane thought as he actually felt a little jealous when the others were talking about the achievements or rewards they obtained from being within the Top 3 Clans.
However, because they had more than 500 Clan Members, Shane knew that it would be really hard to handle it. They certainly deserve those rewards.
But with the Gate Stones, he could certainly start recruiting more members!
"If I have spare, I could probably use it in public areas and charge people with the transportation fee." Shane thought for a moment but he immediately shook his head. He was getting too ahead of himself. He needed to calm down for a moment.
Anyway, he stood and held the Eon Edge.
Suddenly, the blade activated in response, its energy materialized and created what was known as an Energy Blade...
'Let's see how good you are…' Shane mused.
Then, with a single motion, he swung it through the air, and the weapon's hum filled the room...
"Cool~" Shane thought as he felt that this weapon shouldn't belong to the Zombie Apocalypse. However, here it was… A weapon that was too advanced for its current era!
Since Shane obtained incredible rewards after absorbing all his memories related to the A.I. Rebellion, then it only means that he'd also be receiving rewards once he absorbed the last two Memory Spheres containing the Fairy Realm's Invasion past.
Without any more hesitation, Shane took one of the spheres and saw the system prompt…
After agreeing to it, his mind was soon filled with the memories of his past life… He wasn't sure what will happen here but he had a strange feeling that the secrets he was about to learn would be very crucial for his current situation in this Zombie Apocalypse.
