Halo of Infinite Code

[[ After enduring inhuman torture during the experiment to remove the brain limiter, Azkar Oblivion died. He woke up in a world where humans possessed unique abilities and magic, but, to his luck, the very world itself was heading towards the apocalypse. Having been literally broken from the experiment in his past life, when he awakened his abilities in the new world, he was able to see the coding of the very fabric of the world. In his second life, Azkar is creating his way towards his goal to free himself from everything, so no one is able to control him; no rules, no boundaries. This is the goal he aims to achieve in his second life. This is a story where the protagonist is so crazy that he didn't kill any of his enemies in a normal way; he killed them in a very cinematic and overpowering manner. ]]

Reality Hack

After having dinner with King Rudas, Azkar received his reward—access to the royal library and research data in various fields such as science, biology, technology, physics, astrology, experiments related to new discoveries about mana, and more. King Rudas didn't hesitate before agreeing to Azkar's request.

Deciding to make the most of his access, Azkar headed to the library to get his hands on a large number of books filled with data. Many background Characters might have thought, "What is he going to do in the library, even if the king granted him access? There's no way he can read even 1% of the books in the library." However, little did they know that Azkar was far from a normal person, considering how eccentric he was.

Right now, Azkar was standing in front of the grand library of the royal palace, a magnificent structure with architectural designs that made it look like a temple but with a modern touch. Most of the library was built with precious white marble, adorned with large amounts of gold and platinum. The design of this royal library also bore similarities to Gothic architecture, blended seamlessly with modern elements, showcasing the advanced technology of the empire.

There was no physical security protecting the royal library due to the highly confidential information stored within. Instead, everything was controlled by modern artificial intelligence. For extra security measures, the library could only be opened by a person possessing the "Ring of Royalty," a rare possession hardly given to outsiders. In Azkar's case, his unique circumstances led to him being granted this ring despite being an outsider.

Even though King Rudas accepted his request, it came with a condition – Azkar could only access the library for a maximum of 5 hours. This limitation was due to the rules governing the library, which had been an artifact in the possession of the Zenith family for centuries. Even the king himself couldn't use the library for more than 5 hours.

Azkar understood that the library itself was an artifact with its own will, making it unique. Being an artificial artifact created five centuries ago, it didn't have much damage-dealing capacity, but it excelled in the security of storing information. He recalled the ranking of equipment in this world as follows,

1. Common

2. Uncommon

3. Rare

4. Epic

5. Legendary

6. Artifact

He took two steps towards the royal library and noticed a space with a scanner. Placing the [Ring of Royalty] into the scanner, a holographic light began to scan his ring, accompanied by a robotic voice.

{{Welcome to the Royal Library, Mr. Astrophel. You only have 5 hours of time to browse any book in the library. After the completion of your time, you'll be ejected from the library.}}

Finding himself unexpectedly transported into the library was a head-spinning experience that he didn't want to go through again. Azkar even questioned the purpose of the gate at the entrance, but he chose not to dwell on the matter. As he opened his eyes, he witnessed a scene beyond description—a bizarre scene that couldn't be captured in words.

All that met his gaze were books suspended in the air. Yes, all he could see were books floating in the library, and the odd part was there was no wall; it felt like this place was infinite. No matter where he looked, he could only see books, creating an otherworldly spectacle. The higher his eyes tried to look, the more bizarre the library became because no matter where he looked, the only thing present was books.

"This must be the reason that a person can use this library only for 5 hours. It's not like the rules forbid them from using it for a longer time, but they cannot handle this place. No matter who comes to this place, if someone stays more than 5 hours, they will become crazy for sure," Azkar thought.

"Where do I start? If I begin to scan books one by one, then I'm sure this is not going to work because there are many books here. As a good hearted person, I want to scan all the books in the library, but normal methods won't work here. Let me think. Yeah, let's do this," Azkar found a reality hack that could be used here, and it wouldn't take much time.

>Circuit Thread Manipulation (Active): A sub-skill that allows you to control the circuit threads connected to every cell in your body. You can manipulate them as long as you pay the sufficient price for the manipulation. Price can only be paid with Mana Value.

> Data Analysis:: ( Active Ability ) :: Gain instant analysis by visually interpreting complex numerical information.

> Data Absorption [ Authority] :: This a authority of the numeric eyes it's help the user to absorb data without limits.

He found a sub-skill, an ability, and an authority. Combining them, he could literally hack reality. Azkar decided to try it because if he didn't use this method, all the efforts he put into saving the empire would go to waste.

"Use [Circuit Thread Manipulation] and expand trillions of threads into this library. Use my [Data Analysis] ability to scan every book using threads as a base. Absorb the data using my [Data Absorption Authority]. Also, don't turn the books into code; just use data analysis to scan the books and Data Absorption Authority to receive the data into the database of the system," he commanded his system.

[ Command Accepted]

Azkar felt an immense amount of soul energy and mana being consumed to make this hack work. He could literally feel his mana depleting at an unimaginable rate, yet his soul value seemed endless, unaffected by the consumption.

[Circuit threads connected]

[Scanning process begin]

[Large amount of data detected, Absorption Process begin]

[It will take 10 years to absorb all of the books using this method, master]

"..."

"The hell? Are you kidding me? Trillions of books are getting scanned here, and you're saying it will take 10 years to do that even with this speed?" Azkar thought. He was bewildered by the notification, but he could also see it, realizing that this library was too unique. Even with someone absorbing this immense amount of data, there was still more data that couldn't possibly be absorbed by a single person.

"This is getting crazy. Like hell I'm waiting for 10 years to get what I want. Use cosmic points to shorten the time," he instructed his system.

He didn't want to use these points for this purpose, but he knew that if he missed this chance, he would lose an immense amount of data. If using cosmic points as a sacrifice could complete this task, then why stop here? He just had to kill more Domain Rank powerhouses to earn the cosmic points he lost.

[Master, it will take 100 cosmic points to make the time short by 10 days. 200 cosmic points will make it 10 minutes.]

"..."

"Who's going to wait 10 days here? Use 200 coins. I just have to make sure to kill some more Domain Rank experts. Hell, I have to find more of these Domain Rank experts," he said to his system.

[As you command, master. We can also try to find World Rank experts.]

"..."

"Don't be a pushover, my system. I'll think about this later," he said to his system and thought, "It seems my system is becoming more accommodating day by day. Also, it looks like my artificial brain project is progressing well."

Yes! Azkar was attempting to create an artificial brain that he and his system would use. His real human body brain was named [Primary Brain], and the second brain was called [Code Brain], which both he and his system would utilize. When he used his [Code Brain], both he and his system would use this brain simultaneously, turning the system into an AI assistant. However, when he used his [Primary Brain], the system would use the [Code Brain] to perform tasks. This way, the system could have intelligence but wouldn't possess any powers of its own. It would use his abilities to function, and his abilities would evolve passively.

[Master, it will take 10 minutes to scan every single book in this library.]

Seeing this, he smiled because he knew that after scanning everything in this library, his system would evolve, and he could take another step towards his goal.
