"The Fourth Floor and the Humans in Black Market" °•○●
Eren glanced at the com on his arm, making sure he didn't have any abilities he could use in battle or practically in his life. He still wished he had something useful, like fire magic or spitting acid from his mouth.
He sighed and approached the door that would lead to the fourth floor.
He was holding a knife in each hand. He had leather gloves, fireproof and worn clothes, and belts that he wore all over his body. He had just finished the belts where he had put four different daggers on his arms and legs. Another, right at his waist, had six grenades and two smoke grenades. He trusted that monsters couldn't see well in the fog.
He had a huge sword on his back. Eren had decided to use different weapons and gain experience while cleaning the floor.
Finally, he wore a cloth mask around his neck to allow him to breathe easily when he used the smoke bomb. He was going to put this mask on his face as soon as he threw the smoke bomb.
Eren didn't know, but at the time of his disappearance, a virus called Corona Virus appeared on Earth and within just months, the whole planet started to use masks.
If someone had told him that the entire planet was wearing masks and using hand sanitizer all the time, the young man would never believe it.
"All I'm wondering is, how did the Temple develop me? Is it really because of what I ate or is it something else?"
Maevis immediately objected.
"The things the temple feeds you are made with the most useful ingredients in the entire universe. They're all made from vegetables and meats with the best of their kind. That's why they're so useful for low-level creatures."
Eren wasn't too sure. He was sure that he had been eating the cheapest meals all the time in the last months. He could not believe that the Temple had prepared the most stingy-bought food with such a quality that it would accelerate his genetic development. It was too good to be true.
Since he came from a capitalist system, he didn't believe this kind of free benefits or easy helps. There was something else and he was ready to find it.
..
He took a deep breath and smiled, caressing Elena's head.
"Oh, you're up to my shoulder now. You're tall, Elena."
The little vampire stood proudly on her feet and tried to grow her height. "I'll be the same height as you soon, Daddy."
Eren laughed for a few seconds and then waved to Maevis.
There was no need to hesitate or be afraid. He was no longer entering a death pit he didn't know, but a floor where he saw everything.
He quickly opened the door to the fourth floor this time.
Then he started running. Next to her, Elena, who ran with the same agility as her, easily kept up with her pace. They both began to mow down all the creatures they saw.
Eren now constantly had the run, dodge, and attack speeds he had previously only used with all his force. But now, he didn't have to try so hard. It felt more natural and smooth. It was as if his entire body was on a different level than before.
It actually was, but Eren didn't feel like he had evolved despite what Maevis and Com had said. A better memory and a slight increase in physical strength had not felt any external change.
But here his eyes became serious. With the scent of blood and the creatures attacking him, his body instantly revealed its new maximum potential. In an instant, his body went into battle mode.
He was fast.
It was so fast!
Moreover, despite this speed, his reflexes and perception had also improved. He understood his surroundings every second with a feeling that even the fastest people could not have. When he made a sudden movement, he did not lose control or make unnecessary movements with the excitement of the moment. As if ..
In the midst of the war, Eren tried to give the awkwardness a name.
"What would be the right word?"
He thought for a while, and when he was avoiding a spider that had jumped on his back right behind him, he realized.
"Yeah, it's like everything and everyone has slowed down! Except for me…?"
In the next hours, Eren hunted the creatures using only his knives and sometimes the great sword on his back. Collecting parts of individual creatures was super unnecessary. So he ignored the few hundred or a few thousand Z's he would get from this mess.
"The reward for a single creature on the fifth floor is already 1000Z."
They came to the first boss room in the same day on this floor, which took days before. During their journey here, Eren's entire body acquired the features it had before fighting the boss. In fact, Eren was even more advanced.
All his muscles were prominent, all his veins were visible from the outside, and hot steam was coming out of his body. He was constantly thirsty because his body was always so hot. But it didn't matter. Although his body was in this state, he did not feel hot.
His perception was stronger, his movements were faster and more agile.
By killing another creature with every move he was super fast this time.
Eren cleaned the rooms with dozens of 14-15 creatures in it until he reached the end of the fourth floor. He never used a gun in these rooms, he did not receive great help from Elena. On the contrary, he killed most of the creatures that stood in their way.
The first time he got tired, his brain still wanted to keep fighting. His pleasure was so great that he wanted to move fast for weeks, continuing to do the moves he'd only seen in fantasy movies. But no matter how eager he was, his body told him to stop.
Despite the food he ate quickly and the water he drank, he did not feel rested this time. He even felt a small headache and fatigue in his body.
Eren paused at the bend where they saw the boss room as Elena kicked one last robot and pinned it to the wall.
Since it would be impossible to get out when they entered this room, he sat on the floor and leaned his back against the wall. He fell asleep instantly. But he instinctively hugged Elena, who came to his side and put her head in his lap.
They were both tired and fell asleep instantly. It had previously taken them three days to get here.
Now they were at the end of the fourth floor in just one day.
............................................................
The creatures that followed Eren all over the universe had recently predicted that the human child would reach its own genetic limit and be stuck. It was actually more of a rule of thumb than a guess. Subspecies are creatures that do not have a chance to evolve and can reach level 3 with a very low chance.
That was the normal thing. All hominids, including humans on Earth, are an inferior species. And it is a probability in 1,000,000,000 (Billion) for a subspecies human to reach the 3rd level with any of its features.
Even the most gifted hominids may not be able to evolve, despite the right conditions, training, and all kinds of assistance. It requires genetic and physical luck. Everything has to fit perfectly, all the stones have to fit into their perfect places.
So even in the Temple, it was incredible that Eren suddenly evolved before he even reached his 3rd evolutionary barrier. It was the first time that the entire Universe had heard or seen such an easy, even joking development.
What surprised them most was that Eren had not tried to evolve.
"This idiot evolved without even knowing what he was doing! Is this a joke?"
"I don't get it either. But if it's a joke, it's not funny."
"Evolved while fighting a stupid dog with his knives. HE EVOLVED BECAUSE OF A STUPID DOG. Can't believe it!"
..
The standards of the hominids for the entire universe were very low and insignificant. But all humanoid species in the known universe were confused and jealous. Eren was given a chance they never had. And on top of that, this person was making good use of this chance.
"He might even have a soul. What do you think? A real soul."
"No, don't be ridiculous. Spirit is a luxury that only the superior species get when they reach the third level. He is a humanoid like us. He will never be able to rise above the third level and will never have a spirit, no matter what. If that were the case, we wouldn't be called the inferior species anyway."
"I wish we had..."
"I know. I feel the same thing."
At that moment, two humanoid servants were talking among themselves working in a mansion on the giant planet coded A-143545 and named as Door-a.
The language they used was a savage language belonging to the slave hominids of that planet. The owner at home was watching Eren live on the Federation's Internet. Although these humanoids were also slaves, they were lucky to be able to watch Eren's adventures like a TV series.
They didn't know that the owner of the house could hear their conversations thanks to a simple language chip implanted in his brain. But the master was not malicious towards his slaves. It didn't bother him that two of his countless slaves were having fun with his huge on-screen broadcast.
But she wondered.
[Will the value of humanoids, which are now extremely insignificant and cheap, increase? No one is aware of it, but the popularity of human Eren is increasing. Even newborn high-race children may not know the name of the Federation President, but they have memorized Eren and what he is like. The words "Humanoid, and especially the B-42's Human" are much more popular.
Do other humanoids on planet B-42 have special potential? They don't even have to be evolutionary geniuses like the freak in the temple. If advertised as "people from Eren's planet," each would sell for incredible prices]
The owner of the house stood up in his seat and turned around. The two of his slaves, watching from the outside of the door, simultaneously bowed their heads in fear.
"Come closer."
This owner wasn't only from a superior race.
He was powerful and wealthy enough to have a giant villa on such a popular A-level vacation planet. He was a noble and war hero as part of a very superior race. He was in the rank of duke in the system of his race.
He even had a star system that he ruled as an owner.
At that moment, he had in his mind to smuggle some people out of the B-42, take some with him, and sell the rest at exorbitant prices.
But what he didn't know was that he wasn't the first to make this plan.
Despite the federation's disapproval, questions like ["Do humans have hidden genetics? Where is Eren's planet? Does his own race have a strange potential like Eren?"] had already begun to be asked on secret forum pages.
Just three days ago, when Eren first checked his Com and attributes with Maevis, he vividly showed the entire universe everything.
For the first time that day, the question ["How much do humanoids of B-42(Earth) cost?"] was asked on one of the official pages of the federation and was deleted by the official administration. But similar questions continued to be asked in secret.
Like this noble creature; many clans, races and companies began to make secret plans. Although Eren's adventure initially worked well for the humanoids, things slowly took a turn for the worse.
Human experimentation and the black market began to increase more than ever before. The hominid's name is off the list of "The Universe's least popular - useless slave species."
Just a few days later, even the Federation would plan to pass laws to slow the humanoid trade and prevent the plundering of peaceful human planets.
"Humanoid, and the words "Human" as those on planet B-42 Earth call themselves, have become popular throughout the universe.
Thanks to Eren...
Because of Eren!
