Not enough. Not sufficient! What she had right now was not enough!
She had to find out what the core entailed, and how it could work to her favor.
Unlike her sister, she had the System on her side, who could provide her with more accurate information if she really tried at it. If she improved herself to the brink of death. To the very last stand.
She had to succeed. She had to find out what her end goal was, who were her enemies, and how she could defeat them.
Scarily enough, Alena still had questions about how this core was obtained.
She didn't know how far their research has gone. It was like a race against time, to predict who would end up finishing the end creation first. Alena started late since she had just began going out to the field and personally collecting her research materials.
