My System: An Evolved Computer I Made With My Unique Ability—
Chapter 498 To Survive A Survival Test
Even with the staggering numbers of huge entities, Satoshi still kept on fighting while protecting and covering for everyone. He didn't even think twice about selflessly going above and beyond for his teammates since he wanted them to survive through the third day with him.
They had only been together for three days, but the constant onslaught of the entities forged their bonds in a fiery furnace. Satoshi was going to bring them with him through the survival test even if it meant going all out.
"Amy, Nailgun, Scarlet Scythe, I choose you! Octo and Kraken Queen, you guys come out as well!" Satoshi screamed.
He finally brought out all his offensive familiars to help him out, and for the first time in Satoshi's life, he could finally go all out.
Instead of letting Octo (the Kraken Queen's child) fight alongside his mother, Satoshi integrated with him so he could use his powers along with Sain. Right now, Satoshi could only achieve a Dual Beast Integration while commanding his army of familiars.
Technically, he could just integrate with everyone and destroy the entire area altogether, but that wouldn't be beneficial for his team. His offensive capabilities were more than enough to match the horde of entities, nevertheless, he still need a certain control over them.
Furthermore, there was no way he could protect the entire group if he were to integrate with everyone. It would be easy if he were surviving alone. Right now, however, he's got a team with him and he determinedly decided to bring them with him through the end.
"Amy! You copy me. We're going all in." Satoshi commanded, to which Amy (originally known as Copycat, his copy familiar) nodded her head in response.
Tentacles came out of Satoshi's posterior, swinging wildly around as they mixed with the chainsaw feature of the chainsaw familiar Sain. Now, Satoshi's tentacles resembled long chainsaws that erratically sliced and diced the entities.
Amy copied him in a flash, also assuming his superpower to the letter as she covered the other side of the group. Together, the two of them worked hard in keeping the entities at bay.
Compared to a couple of hours ago, everyone was having a hard time. But now that there were technically two Satoshis keeping the entire horde at bay, everyone found it easier to defend.
One hour left.
"Final push everyone!" Satoshi's voice sounded a little too mechanical thanks to the subtle changes from integrating with Octo and Sain. These familiars changed Satoshi's physique as well as his body composition. He still looked humanoid, but his entire body was made up of Octo and Sain's bodies.
It was the final push so everyone gave it their all— not that everyone wasn't giving their all a couple of hours ago. Thanks to the countdown reaching its final hour, it renewed everyone's determination, causing them to go way beyond their limits while screaming their lungs out.
Seeing the insane boost in their power output, Satoshi didn't want to get outshined so he pushed himself even further, going way beyond his one hundred percent as the countdown continued going down.
Every single Manager and eliminated Disciples watched the entire group while they gritted their teeth. It was like a scene out of a battle movie, a fitting end to a survival test that should've been impossible.
Even Magnus's Disciples, who weren't present in the current training camp since they were powerful enough, watched with their fingers crossed— not because they were wishing for the remaining ten Disciples to finish, but rather because they hoped that they won't survive the third day.
After all, none of them survived the third day, so they wished for everyone's failure as well just so they wouldn't lose face.
A handful of them survived halfway through the third day and couldn't even begin to imagine how ten of them could get through such a formidable horde. They just faced a tenth of that horde and they couldn't even last through the third day.
Of course, there was one Disciple there who was the most powerful out of everyone, and he watched with clenched fists as the final minutes ticked. He hated the fact that a normal Disciple was actually more powerful than him... and yet he greatly respected his superpower.
Somehow, the entire live stream became famous throughout all dimensions. It had become an interdimensional sensation amongst Managers and Disciples. There were even Disciples who wouldn't participate in the fight against the World Eater. But after seeing the live stream, their rear side started itching for a battle.
One minute left!
Satoshi and the nine others in his team could see the light at the end of the tunnel. They started screaming while the horde mercilessly threw everything at them. They were already certain of their victory, and it gave them the adrenaline boost they needed to last a couple of seconds more.
With the nearing end, Satoshi's consciousness actually started dwindling. After all, he needed to continuously consume energy while trying to keep his familiars summoned. Adding to that, he was using Dual Beast Integration so his energy consumption was unsurprisingly fast.
It was mentioned before that Satoshi's summons don't consume energy. However, Satoshi consumes energy every time he summons them. Throughout the entire survival test, he had to resummon some of his familiars since they suffer considerable damage... and Satoshi didn't want them to suffer so he resets their summon every now and then.
Because of that, Satoshi's seemingly endless well of energy was now beginning to dry up, and his consciousness dwindled because of it.
Three.
Two.
One!
"..."
"..."
The pandemonium that lasted for three days was gone in an instant. And then there was peace. For a moment, the usual serenity and tranquility of the forest encompassed the ten Disciples who survived the hellish three days.
With exhaustion in their eyes, everyone stole a gaze at each other as the area surrounding them started clearing up. The entities who stopped moving finally disappeared, and what was left were all the Disciples along with their tamed beasts.
Now that they got a good look at it, Satoshi's familiars exuded so much power that they couldn't help but choke up. Behind these formidable familiars is an overpowered Disciple who looked nothing like a human. The tentacles in his back continued to erratically swing around in the air as if still looking forward to another match.
And a couple of feet away from him was his copy, which looked exactly like him and displayed powers on par with his. It was none other than Amy who assumed Satoshi's current form.
At this point, Satoshi just wanted to keel forward and rest on the nonexistent grass on his feet. The moment he thought that his body fell forward, the Dual Beast Integration deactivated before he could do anything.
Satoshi felt as helpless as a newborn fawn when he fell forward. He may have looked like a hero back then, but now his image was nothing like that. The exhaustion finally got the better of him and he fell into unconsciousness.
Of course, it was understandable since he solo-carried everyone in the group. His losing consciousness didn't make him any less cool than he was before.
However, Satoshi forgot to do one thing before he fainted— he actually forgot to recall all his familiars!
"Um, what do we do about them?" Bruce asked, jerking a thumb at the hooded robe floating behind him. Somehow, the figure sent chills up and down his spine even though he knew that it was harmless.
After all, they were Satoshi's familiars. There was no way they'd suddenly attack anyone, right?
ραndαsΝοvεl.cοm Every Disciple got a better look at Satoshi's familiars. Just the sheer size of them made them want to throw up— especially that familiar he called Stat. They had no idea that such a massive Representative such as the Statue of Captivity existed.
...
Meanwhile,
The gathering of Managers took a standstill when the survival test ended. All of them just sat there with their eyes wide open. Never in their long life span have they witnessed something so unimaginable.
Then there was Bucky Barnes, who simply leaned back on his seat. His smug attitude emanated in the room they were in. "Told ya," He simply uttered as he shook off the imaginary dust from his clothes.
"I guess this is my big break, huh? I can't wait for the other Managers to interview me." He continued as he wore the same smug look on his face. "Nothing like good marketing, right Magnus Carter?"
Somehow, even with his chatty attitude, his voice was still monotonous. There was excitement in his voice, but it still sounded robotic and serious just like the usual Bucky Barnes.
Tight-lipped, Magnus stood up and slowly walked out of the room. The moment he took one step outside, he turned around. "I'll go check up on everyone. With this, the survival test has officially concluded." He mumbled before summoning an interdimensional portal which led straight to the planet where the Disciples were.
