Chapter 193: Upgrade
‘System?’
When the voice sounded, Heath had just walked into the dormitory arranged by the fortress. He was busy tidying up his room and did not pay much attention to it.
He was stunned for a moment until he confirmed that it was not an illusion…
‘It’s really the system!’
Heath was shocked!
He quickly said, ‘Open the system and check it!’
[Beep, the upgrade of the Supernatural Extraction System has ended. This upgrade has taken 10 years, 6 months, 28 days, 16 hours, 32 minutes, and 28 seconds.]
After ten years, he finally heard that familiar voice again. In the past, when the system was around, he did not feel anything, but now, this voice was becoming more and more pleasing to his ears.
[This upgrade has increased the system’s strength and added the following functions on top of the original system:]
[1. Deep extraction: It can extract extraordinary substances at a deeper level to obtain more value, including but not limited to attributes, knowledge, energy, and so on.]
[2. Spatial extraction: Other than specific substances, normal substances can be extracted within a certain range without physical contact.]
[PS: The maximum extraction range is 100 meters. The closer the extraction distance is, the more attributes can be extracted.]
A familiar light blue light unfolded in front of his eyes. Information was displayed on it one after another. Beside it, there was a detailed explanation of the increase in attributes.
‘I wonder how the specific effect of the increase will be? Forget it, why don’t I just give it a try?’
After making a decision in his heart, Heath immediately grabbed his cloak and left.
A while later, at the Bloody Fortress, the Land of the Dead.
The Land of the Dead was an empty space on the west side of the fortress that was used to dispose of the corpses. The corpses of the warriors who died on the battlefield were all sent here.
When Heath arrived here, he saw that the warriors were busy dealing with the corpses of the warriors who had died in the previous battles.
There were circular altars set up above the empty space. The corpses of the warriors who had died in the previous battles were carried onto the altars. When they moved the turntable beside them, the altars would shoot out extremely high-temperature flames and turn the corpses into ashes in an instant.
Because of the existence of Wraiths, there was no such thing as burial on the Bloody Battlefield. After everyone died, they would be sent here for cremation.
Heath found the logistics officer and explained his identity. He said that he had nothing to do and hoped that he could help.
The discipline of the army was very high. It was not like he could get involved just because he wanted to. However, Heath in front of him was an official Wizard. He took the initiative to offer his help, and it was the dirty work of disposing of the bodies. How could others not agree?
“Ah? Wizard? Are… Are you serious?”
“Then… Okay.”
“If there is anything you need, feel free to help us…”
Just like that, Heath entered the military crematorium and began to test the system.
He first found a dead Apprentice Knight and put one hand on the Apprentice Knight’s shoulder.
This action, which he had not done for a long time, gave Heath a strange feeling, as if he had suddenly returned to school after working for so many years and poked the back of his female deskmate with a pen.
Sighing in his heart, Heath said, ‘Extraction!’

[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained [Soul Fragment].]
Heath’s mind jolted.
Looking at the long string of notifications that were jumping up and down, he could not help but open his mouth. “This is… this is too ridiculous!”
From attributes to swordsmanship, from swordsmanship to poetry, and this soul fragment.
Heath took a look. The soul fragment referred to a small part of this Apprentice Knight’s life history, the most precious memory.
All of these, in this instant.
All of it was picked up by him!
“Is this the power after the upgrade?” Heath was shocked.
“Let’s try the remote extraction effect…”
Thinking of this, he immediately took a step back and silently chanted in his heart, ‘Spatial extraction.’
[Beep, please select the extraction target. Single/multiple?]
He could also extract multiple targets at the same time?
He first tried the single extraction. “Single.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Heath immediately felt that a special tentacle had appeared on his spiritual power. Similar to other spiritual tentacles, it could also be controlled by him.
He then controlled this spiritual tentacle to touch a corpse more than ten meters away. ‘Extract!’
[Beep, extraction successful. Strength +0.08]
[Beep, extraction successful. Strength +0.01]
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained [Hilawat Cross Sword Art].]
[Beep, extraction successful. Obtained [Soul Fragment].]
The quality of the attributes was lower than the previous extraction, and the total number of items extracted was also two items lower than before.
However, the advantage was that this was remote extraction. The concealment and convenience were greatly enhanced, and some who he could not make physical contact with could now be easily extracted.
‘Next is the multiple spatial extraction…’
Heath carried out the spatial extraction again. This time, he chose multiple targets.
A strange touch came from his spiritual power again. However, this time, it was not an additional spiritual tentacle, but a spiritual net.
With him as the center, a circular spiritual net was spread out. Its diameter was exactly 100 meters.
[Beep, do you want to extract the extraordinary substance within this range?]
Was this the simultaneous extraction?
Heath tried it out, and he could control the circle to shrink freely.
He then said, “Extract.”
As soon as he finished speaking, it was like a white bird chirping in unison!

[Beep, extraction successful…]
[Beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep, beep…]
Heath’s head almost exploded!
…
After repeated attempts, Heath had basically grasped the changes after the system upgrade.
First, the extraction attributes had been strengthened.
In the past, the system could only extract one attribute for a single target, and it was two decimal points later. Sometimes, it did not even have a specific value.
But now, it could extract multiple attributes at once, and basically, one attribute would be able to extract a higher value, and it could also extract other knowledge.
If the system was compared to a water vessel, the system was like a spoon in the past, but now, the system was like a bucket!
…
Heath’s first round of battle at the Bloody Fortress ended just like that.
A few days after the battle ended, the Bloody Fortress held a banquet to celebrate their previous victory and to welcome the arrival of Heath’s group of warriors.
During this banquet, Heath also gained a deeper understanding of the Bloody Fortress and the Bloody Battlefield…
