A day later, Nash left the room and began exploring the Crimson Gang Headquarters.
Right now, hundreds of squads were gathered in this small place, meaning hundreds of Void Warriors were present.
Such a concentrated number of Void Warriors could instantly paralyze Atral City.
Nash had to prepare for the inevitable and plan for emergencies.
Before that, Nash needed to know all the key players in the base, from basic information to their most secretive habits.
Passing through the kitchen hall, workshops, and utility rooms, Nash engraved all the information he found into the [Memory Module System]
Over the years, Nash hadn't been idle.
Besides improving the module systems he created, he had been studying the inner workings of the runic space.
After counting, he found a total of 2,322 runic programs running in his body.
Among these, the brain took over 860 runic programs, having the most complex and numerous runic commands and symbols.
Deeming it the most critical piece that would make him stronger, Nash studied it day and night, almost 24 hours a day.
However, even under such an intensity, he only studied about 80 runic programs regarding the brain's ability to store information.
Fortunately, it was enough to create a new module system, the [Memory Module System]
Using the [Memory Module System], everything Nash saw, heard, smelled, felt, and even tasted could be copied and saved like files in a computer.
When needed, Nash could retrieve them as if watching a 5D video with all his senses engaged.
The creation of the [Memory Module System] had been immensely useful, bypassing the time and effort needed for recalling information and allowing Nash to focus on analysis and deduction.
Keeping up his pace, he made his way to the combat training hall.
When gathering intel, there is no better way than observing how they trained and fought.
Just as Nash passed an empty alley, a knife came slashing at his back.
The attack was so abrupt and stealthy that it was too late for Nash to react.
However, his body moved as if by magic, seemingly having eyes on the back of its head, dodging the attack and delivering a solid kick to his assailant.
Bang~
Seeing the fallen opponent, Nash felt beads of sweat on his forehead.
Even though he was on full alert, preparing for any unexpected event, Nash hadn't noticed the assassin until he attacked.
"An elemental assassin-type Void Warrior?" Nash muttered gloomily.
Only an elemental assassin-type Void Warrior could sneak up on him unnoticed.
An Elemental Assassin-type Void Warrior was adept at concealment.
Sacrificing the strength and physique enhancement of Void energy, they learned to harmonize with the element of darkness.
There are three classes of Void Warriors: physical class, elemental class, and special class.
An elemental assassin-type Void Warrior falls into the elemental class, while a Void Tamer falls into the special class.
Facing an elemental class Void Warrior for the first time, Nash was a little curious.
"Cough~ Not bad. Not only did you managed to dodge but also hit me." The fallen assassin stood up, holding his stomach.
"What do you want? Why did you attack me?" Nash asked in anger.
If not for the [Combat Module System] activated at all times, he might have been seriously injured or even killed.
The [Combat Module System] was another runic module system he created.
Connected to the [Sensing Module System], all his senses are in full concentration, picking up the sound, smell, taste, sight, etc., beyond human comprehension.
The instant the [Sensing Module System] picked up a danger, it would send a warning to the [Combat Module System], taking up the work.
Retrieving the best response he had input beforehand in the [Memory Module System], the [Combat Module System] would overtake his body and respond.
After all, Nash was just a human and not a robot.
Even if he had the ability to recognize and analyze every pattern, he still had to calculate, recall, and choose the best response.
Now, all of this had been automated by the [Combat Module System].
As long as Nash had seen the move or technique and input the corresponding response into the [Memory Module System], Nash was invincible.
Meanwhile, hearing Nash's question, the assassin smiled.
"I'm just a hired guy to test your skills. As for any injury you might incur? I'm sorry in advance~" the assassin said slowly as he disappeared before Nash's eyes.
"How does this work?" Nash thought, seeing the assassin disappear before him.
The place was brightly lit with minimal shadows, yet the assassin vanished into nothingness like thin air, mesmerizing Nash with the power that Void energy could wield.
While he was thinking, analyzing the inner workings of an elemental void energy, his body moved independently, dodging a rain of invisible knives he couldn't see.
"How is this possible? How can you dodge all of that?!" The assassin thought in shock.
Mechanically dodging multiple attacks, Nash began to ponder the assassin's intentions.
Test his skills? For what? Is there an internal rivalry going on in the Earth Horizon Alliance?
While he thought of various possibilities, the assassin moved closer, wanting to deliver a close-range blow.
Unfortunately for him, it was his last attack.
Sensing the flow of air, smelling the hint of sweat, and hearing the faintest sound, Nash's body moved precisely.
Activating the [Overloading Module System], his power increased five times as he grabbed the assassin's neck and hand, stopping the attack.
"Don't move, or you're dead!"
An elemental class Void Warrior was only slightly stronger than an average human in terms of physical strength.
Without an active attack besides his camouflage skill, the assassin was completely under Nash's control.
"I'm just an evaluator; no need to take this seriously!" the assassin said hurriedly, raising his hands in surrender.
Feeling the strength in Nash's grip, the assassin was sure his throat could be crushed in an instant.
"Now, now, I just have a few questions before I let you go."
