Chapter 143 - The Second Stage (3)

nJeremy had perfectly copied Xildas' whole appearance. Right now, he looked no different than the latter in the least.

n'Hmm... I think there are still some differences between him and me...' Jeremy thought after looking at his new face for a while.

nThen he put his hand inside the combat suit's pocket and brought out a wristwatch from within before wearing it on his left hand.

nThe wristwatch was obviously Xildas' spatial wristwatch...

nAfter almost ten seconds, a corpse wearing an orange-shaded black uniform promptly appeared on the dark floor before Jeremy.

nWithout further delay, Jeremy started undressing Xildas' corpse to study his body.

nWhile doing such a disgraceful act, Jeremy chanted a powerful incantation within his mind,

n'For survival... for survival... for survival... for survival...'

nAfter some minutes of flipping and studying the corpse, Jeremy had finally grasped the full details of Xildas' body and structure.

nSimultaneously, Jeremy also constantly activated the Perfect Disguise as he scrutinized the body, causing his appearance to change continuously, albeit little by little.

nUpon perfectly changing himself into Xildas, Jeremy thought with a slight frown,

n'So, there are two downsides of the so-called 'perfect' disguise. Firstly, I have to know every detail of the one I want to change into. Secondly, I cannot undergo a DNA or blood test no matter what as those two things cannot be copied in the least.'

nJeremy shook his head slightly at the two flaws of Perfect Disguise and thought further,

n'If I manage to advance it to beyond technique level... it might be possible...'

nRegardless of Jeremy's wishful thinking, he knew all too well that advancing a skill or technique to the level of beyond was not easy by any chance.

nEven in his past life, Jeremy had to spend a few eras of practice before he could finally advance his meditation to the level of beyond technique, aka Realm.

n'Alright, I just have to avoid those in-depth recognition tests, or...'

nAfter thinking shortly, Jeremy's eyes shifted towards the naked corpse on the ground.

n'Or, I just have to keep his corpse in the spatial dimension to preserve it, and when I have to undergo the DNA or blood test, I can use his DNA and blood instead of mine.'

nThen, Jeremy proceeded to keep Xildas' corpse back inside the wristwatch before keeping the latter back inside the pocket.

n'This skill is still pretty helpful as it doesn't even have limited duration or cooldown after being used.'

n'Like this, I can become anyone at any time I want to...'

nAfterward, Jeremy continued changing his appearance into many other people he knew.

nThe skill of high-advance level didn't betray Jeremy's expectations in the least; at one time, he even changed himself into a certain muscular baldy with a height of almost two meters.

nAs for his hair?

nIt all fell off from Jeremy's head...

nOnly when he changed his appearance from a baldy into another person with hair would it grow back and become longer like a miracle.

nJeremy continued changing his appearances for quite some minutes until he felt satisfied and stopped at a middle-aged one with average facial features and 177 centimeters in height.

n'I will use this appearance in the second stage. As for the name, I will go by...' Jeremy thought upon inspecting his face and body through a small mirror.

n'Joe? William? Lucas? Nah... Let's go with Tom, Tommy.'

nJeremy intended to use this middle-aged-man appearance together with his new name, Tommy, to undergo the tutorial's second stage.

nThe reason?

nIt was undoubtedly to avoid the two betting cupids' observing eyes because they would surely keep their eyes on the skirmishes happening within the second stage.

nSo, this was the only way that Jeremy could escape those two annoying babies with wings.

n'From now on until the second stage ends, I will be Tommy, an average middle-aged man.'

nAfter finishing setting his identity, Jeremy proceeded to check another skill, Third Eye.

n'Alright...'

n'Third Eye'

n...

nThird Eye (High Advance - Active Skill): Upon activating, your eyes will see through the veil of space itself and be able to see into a very faraway distance. Caution: Beware of the information overload.

n...

nAfter commanding inwardly to activate the skill, Jeremy's eyes simultaneously brightened up with blue glows.

nHis blue eyes looked sharper as if they were trying to penetrate into the dark space itself.

nAt the same time, the sight before Jeremy had utterly changed as it was not pitch-black in color anymore but light grey instead.

n'Is that this dimension's boundary?'

nJeremy wondered inwardly after seeing what seemed to be the boundary of this light grey space.

nThe boundary appeared to be a dome of which Jeremy stood in the middle of the said dome.

nSurprisingly, the boundary was situated around three kilometers away from Jeremy. However, he could clearly see the barrier layer as if he stood before it.

n'A skill of wonder...'

n'My eyes indeed penetrate into the space and see farther than before countless of times. I think I can even see through illusion and stealth with this skill.'

n'That's why those long-ranged classes feel confident in their eyes so much...'

nJeremy thought while nodding his head in appreciation at the usefulness of Third Eye skill before thinking further,

n'Regarding the information overload, I don't feel anything at all for now. Maybe, my brain is too good to be overloaded?'

n'Well, anything is good. So, no complaint.'

nEven though the skills were very hard to level up, such a magnitude of skill as Third Eye could be a game-changer in a crucial moment of a battle. Thus, Jeremy felt very pleased with it.

nAfter finishing testing the three skills, Jeremy proceeded with the next topic,

n'Next things to test are my talents...'

n'First of all, there is nothing much to do with Prodigy of Magic as it only helps me understand and comprehend magic-related stuff easier...'

n'As for Sixth Sense...'

nHaving thought about Sixth Sense, Jeremy promptly closed his eyes to 'feel' the surroundings.

n'Is this how the sixth sense, the sense of perception, works? In the past, I think I've heard from that guy about how it operates, but feeling it firsthand is very different...'

n'Right now, I can see those things at tens of meters away from me even while closing my eyes.'

n'Let's see... The toilet is fourteen meters to my right. The broken steel spear is nine meters in that direction.'

n'It works almost like Mind Sense of Sea of Consciousness, but there are still some differences...'

nAfter having done testing Sixth Sense, Jeremy opened his eyes and nodded his head in contentment before thinking,

n'Except for Mind Sense, its mechanism also gives me the same vibes as Seventh Sense. I wonder how it will feel like to have both Sixth Sense and Seventh Sense at my arsenal...'

n'Alright, the next one, the Information Falser. With this talent, I can set an entire new Status Window. As for how it works...'

nHaving thought until here, Jeremy commanded inwardly,

n'Information Falser'

nSimultaneously, an interface showed up before Jeremy...

n...

nName: (Unset)

nRace: (Unset)

nClass: (Unset)

nTitle: (Unset)

nAffinities: (Unset)

nTalent: (Unset)

nTrait: (Unset)

nAchievement: (Unset)

nMission: (Unset)

n...

n'So, it works like this...'

nUpon seeing so many 'Unsets' within the interface, Jeremy promptly got a gist of how to manage the false Status Window.

nAfter knowing what to do, Jeremy started adjusting the vacant Status Window right away....
