Chapter 559 Money-Making Coin

??Thanks to this energy conversion, as long as Compass Carburettor walked out in the sun, his Mental Energy reserves would continue to increase.

??As to where it was stored, that would be within its cartridge, one that had partially gained the qualities of Dimensional Space.

??Being the Core of the Main Character, and also wielding the Core Skill of Lore, Compass Carburettor inherited some traits of the other three Main Characters.

??From Gahrat, he inherited the quality of Dimensional Space, causing the volume within his gun's cartridge to expand, allowing it to store tens of bullets and Mental Energy itself.

??From Hazen, he obtained the power to condense multiple copies of his gun. And finally, from Domino Plottopia…well, it was something he had yet to understand. It was somewhat odd and hard to grasp.

??As Domino Plottopia—Secret Society—had changed the most, things related to this change too were somewhat bizarre.

??It could also be said that Hazen's powers influenced Lore, as this was from the Cultivation World, and with him taking the reins during the revival. Due to that, the power of Memoir Beckoner influenced all the other three in mysterious ways.

??Now, onto his primary abilities, it was shooting out bullets that transformed into the Dragon of System. Anthozoa obtained this ability after Stencil fused Dota's corpse into Anthozoa.

??These Dragon Bullets were invisible to the naked eye, only detectable to beings that could perceive Mental Energy.

??And unlike before when the System Host took damage that was partially transferred to the System, these Dragon Bullets could selectively target the Systems alone, not even scratching the Hosts or even affecting their minds.

??They wouldn't even know what hit them as their status was reduced from a System Host to a regular person.

??It was this Dragon of System's power that allowed him to suck in air and condense bullets in a fraction of a second. Compass Carburettor didn't even need to condense Anthozoa to do this.

??As he himself was Anthozoa, the very air he breathes could be used to condense his bullets. Similarly, his skin would absorb sunlight and convert it into Mental Energy.

??And finally, there came the last portions of his ability—refinement!

??Before, Anthozoa sucked in air through the nozzle. After becoming a Personal Fragment, it absorbed the body of Systems through the same. And it was this very part that was affected by Hazen's powers.

??It allowed Anthozoa to suck in Mental Energy and refine the thoughts in them. Compass Carburettor could then select the thoughts of his choice and condense them into a bullet.

??Or rather, turn it into a Bullet Template.

??Suppose, he absorbed Horan's Mental Energy. And if there existed thoughts of Horan's usage of his magic—lightning—abilities, then Compass Carburettor could condense those thoughts alone into a Bullet Template.

??Following that, he could use this Bullet Template to manufacture bullets of lightning mana.

??This allowed him to adapt to any world he ever sets foot in, to a certain extent allowing him to exercise some versatility.

??Anthozoa's original limit of six bullets was now transformed into the limit of its Bullet Templates. He could have six Bullet Templates in total.

??That was how he absorbed thoughts related to a Metal Element Mage, refining them into a Bullet Template to then shoot bullets of the Metal Element, thereby disguising himself as a Metal Element Mage.

??The limit of this Bullet Template was that he could only shoot Bullets or Dragon Bullets using it. So, there wasn't much he could do about it.

??But the advantage was the fact that until he destroyed it, the Bullet Templates were permanent. Meaning, if he obtained some interesting thoughts in the Mental Energy streams incident on him, he could condense some fun Bullet Templates that prove useful in other worlds too.

??At present, he had four Bullet Templates. The first of them was from a Metal Element Mage, the second was from Horan, and the remaining two were from Stencil herself.

??Of course, they were thoughts related to her Secret Refiner and Happy-Go-Lucky System. He purposefully asked her to emit some Mental Energy regarding those, experimenting to see that it was indeed possible.

??Of course, the effect wasn't much as the quality of thoughts was subpar, but it still allowed him to exercise the two powers, even though the effect was pretty straightforward.

??If Stencil were ever to get injured, he could casually shoot hundreds of bullets created using the Happy-Go-Lucky System's Bullet Template. They would be like healing potions to her, allowing her to recover rapidly.

??And finally, there was the primary ability of Lore and what it described about him. As the Lord of Wealth, he was of course able to wield powers regarding this domain.

??At the moment, this power condensed a gold coin. Compass Carburettor stared at it, gazing at the familiar face. Of course, it was the face of the Money-Making System.

??As Lore was awakened through Hazen, a lot of things were influenced by his powers.

??This caused the memories related to his state as Host to the Money-Making System to take effect, condensing a coin that resembled the Money-Making System's face.

??The power of this coin wasn't anything concrete like most abilities. It just contained the power to make one wealthy.

??Basically, if he were to give this coin to a beggar, the beggar might chance upon a money-making scheme or he would think of an idea himself.

??And, this idea/scheme would be something that would work in the market during the economic situation of the time.

??The beggars of his region might be getting some items out of pity from the commoners. And his idea would be to use these items to manufacture some essential goods that would be an instant hit among the commoners.

??That way, he would be able to make money. As to what he would do from that point onwards, it was entirely up to him. The power of this coin would only influence his mind and decisions related to business alone.

??Meaning, the ideas he gets would all work in the market situation. And the decisions he takes would be at the perfect time to capitalise on the shifting market. This was the principal effect of the Money-Making Coin, his power as the God of Wealth.

??Compass Carburettor can create as many of these Money-Making Coins as he wished, as long as he had enough Mental Energy to sustain its creation.

??After all, a single Money-Making Coin cost around a hundred thousand Mental Energy to create.
