nAlongside that, Dante also learned three fire spells. However, there was no point in displaying them since he couldn’t use them in any sense of the word. He could only use their permutations and effects as a reference for his hellfire at best.

nDante sat in his new laboratory that was supplied to him as a Novice Mage, which was more luxurious than some 6th Rank Grand Wizards. He closed the final spellbook before him and sighed, rubbing his temples before contacting Beatrice in the outside world through his AI chip.

n“Testing, testing. Am I speaking to the most handsome man in the universe?” Beatrice’s playful voice sounded in Dante’s head, making him smile.

n“Not yet the most handsome, but definitely proud that the most powerful and most beautiful woman is his soulmate,” Dante replied sincerely.

nBeatrice was naturally extremely excited and pleased by these words, and the new couple spent the next 30 minutes sweet talking to each other stupidly, making us single fellows cringe and facepalm!

n“Right, you definitely called me for something important. What’s happening?” Beatrice reluctantly changed the subject because she knew that there was an important reason for Dante to contact her.

nDante explained the information about the top ten resurrection resources he learned from Master Elandor. “And what I need to know is what you feel would be best. We need to devise a plan to acquire these items.”

nBeatrice hummed. “Not necessarily. Don’t forget, I sent you to this world because it has one of the few power systems that you can practice both within its quantum world and in the real world. There are countless magical worlds, the majority not even belonging to the school, that have very exaggerated world backgrounds and settings which might have similar items.”

n“The only thing is that the danger level in those worlds is far higher since they have greater power systems and you cannot plagiarize those power systems. A simple example is the very popular Anime World that is number 6 in the top 100 of all public and free Etraverse worlds.”

nBeatrice shrugged. “You could enter the Dragon Ball section, gather all seven, bring them out, and make the necessary wishes.” 𝗼𝐯𝐞𝐥．𝐜𝐨𝗺

n“But it’s a shared world, meaning that even if you can get past the natives, you will be competing with other players universe-wide for the same seven items. While you can bring them out and use them to the fullest, they only want to use them within the game world to enhance their power.”

n“This is the kind of trouble you will face in all quantum worlds when trying to gather special resources,” Beatrice stated simply.

nDante nodded. “I could alternatively mitigate the danger by using my virtual body. Real or virtual, my Quantum Depository can be used.”

nDante rubbed his brows tiredly. “But the problem is even greater, because such virtual bodies will have to adhere to the rules of the world. I will have to grow their power obediently and naturally using the quantum world’s rules, so how can I surpass those who have been residents of such worlds for years before I came here?”

n“Not to mention, every second for you is precious. Time that could be spent practicing your various arts to increase your Life Seed energy for your Knight Arts, Blood Qi for your Martial Arts, Internal Force for your Internal Arts, or Spiritual Power for your Magic Arts,” Beatrice added.

nDante nodded. “Not to mention I still need to rush and raise my Quantum Entanglement to the C Rank to see if I can find a way to bring people along when I travel back and forth. With your help, these issues in quantum worlds or in my home universe would be moot.”

n“I simply do not see the value in leaving my real body out here and frolicking with my virtual body in some quantum world. Even though I can technically control both real and virtual, that is only if they are in close proximity and aren’t doing strenuous stuff.” Dante sighed in the end.

n“Don’t worry about it, Dante. I’ve already told you, my mother can come back at any time, but if I lose you, I will lose everything. Focus on yourself first,” Beatrice comforted him.

nThen her voice became extremely sultry and seductive. “Besides, you haven’t even filled me up with your essence and put a baby in me, so don’t think that far. I want you to ravage me fully before we think of anything else.”

nDante felt heat course through his body at Beatrice’s provocative words, and his eyes shone. “Fine, we’ll do things like this first. I’ll head to the Apocalypse World for the next round of strengthening, but after that, I have to return to my home universe to start my exploration.”

n“Mhm, I’m here for you no matter what, Dante,” Beatrice emphasized, making Dante feel good.

nAfter chatting for a bit, Dante ended the call and then placed his virtual body in his meditation chamber in a meditative pose before logging out and taking his real body as well.

nWhen he appeared, he was on the Observation Deck of the ship, but Beatrice was not there. Dante walked towards the teleporter and appeared in the research room of the Inferno battleship.

nHe took in the white room with various high-tech tools and apparatus with a nod and then walked to the mainframe.

n“Welcome, Vice Admiral Dante. I am the Research Wing AI. How may I help you?” A calm male voice appeared in his mind through his AI chip.

n“Study these two resources and see if you can replicate them using materials available to me,” Dante instructed as he placed two items down.

nOne was a piece of metal, Soulforged Steel, which was used by Knights to form their special armor and weapons that were compatible with life energy. The other was a glowing yellow crystal, an Astral Crystal that contained the purest Astral Energy, which could be used to either cultivate Spiritual Power or harness elements.

nThey were both basic and essential resources in the Magus World that were used by knights and wizards of all levels, as they also came with different qualities and potencies depending on where and how they were found.

nDante watched the research AI begin to work quickly, using powerful quantum calculations that even his AI chip would struggle to follow with his SDI. Dante then directly entered the Apocalypse World and realized that his previous session had come to an end.

nAs such, he casually chose a new city to descend and entered with his real body at the first second while coating his body in a Starry Shield spell as well as a thin wall of hellfire just to be safe.

nHis precautions were good but unnecessary as he awoke to find that he was within a deep cave. His hellfire illuminated the dark cavern, which was full of bones and remains from other humans.

nDante found that he was bound by some thick webbing that stuck to his body quite tightly initially, but easily melted in the face of his hellfire, releasing him from his bindings.

nHis Spirit Sense blasted out and wantonly scanned the area around him for 500 meters in all directions, and what he found made him pause. He was within a deep cave that was actually the nest of a B Rank Spider Queen and her various subordinates.

nWell, the deepest part of the cave had the giant B Rank Spider Queen who was part human with human features, and around her were C Rank Spider Champions that were extremely powerful and formed her royal guard.

nAside from that were the D Rank Spider Lords who managed the rest of the race and formed the ‘noble’ class, as well as the E Rank Spider Warriors who were the ‘commoners’ and fought at the command of the Spider Lords.

nFinally, there were the F Rank Spiderlings who were cannon fodder that all the forces above used to do anything that they didn’t want to do. They were numerous and almost mindless, only slaving for the hive day and night without any chance of climbing the ranks.

nDante was currently in one of the Spiderling caves, near the entrance. It would actually be quite easy for him to sneak out and escape, but his hellfire had already caused millions of beady red eyes to open and then focus on him in this place of darkness.

nNow, Dante was not one to scare easily, but his Spirit Sense had already told him that he was surrounded by a countless number of these spiderlings, and almost every single one in the nearest 100 meters had its eyes on him, while those behind were beginning to hone in on him.

nImmediately, as one, they screeched and rushed forward like an indomitable army, falling over each other in order to reach Dante the quickest and use their mandibles to pierce him to shreds.
