《Becoming God of a Dystopian World 》Chapter 18: Contents!
Advertisement
After being left alone in the solitary space by the old man's disappearance and getting a hellish beating by his apparitions, Zhao Luo had nothing else to do except,
"It's time to flip the page."
Zhao Luo said as he picked the book.
Zhao Luo was ready to open the book again.
His master had told him that the book will help him with his journey.
He was going to test that. Maybe this will help him in getting his body out of the capsule.
Or it may lead to something even better.
Zhao Luo eagerly opened the book again.
The book with the dark shiny cover was already making the dark surrounding even shadier gave out a golden radiance as soon as it was opened.
Just like before the first page had two words on it.
"Heaven's Tomb."
Zhao Luo read the words.
He pondered over these words before going to the next page eager to know the content of this Godly book.
'Flip'
Zhao Luo flipped the page.
The eager Zhao Luo was shocked after seeing the content of the page.
He stared as hard as he could but for that time frame, after he had turned the page, this page was empty just a simple blank golden paper with nothing written on it.
'Did the old man scam me?'
Zhao Luo thought.
As he couldn't find anything on the page he was going to close the book but right while he was closing it, words started to appear on the page.
The words appeared on the whole page at the same time as if they were submerged in the page before and were coming up now.
Zhao Luo started reading from the top.
A grand title was left on this page.
"KNOWLEDGE"
Zhao Luo read the title and an unknowing smile could be seen on his face.
He thought about what kind of knowledge he will be getting as the book was a compilation of the experiences of ancient Gods from the old man's World.
Zhao Luo started reading the page and right from the start he was immersed in it.
The book started with the introduction of a God explaining their powers.
What is a God?
A being who is all powerful and supreme.
Not just super powerful but also with different abilities.

An ability that they had which was unbalanced according to Zhao Luo who had already read it.
It was the power to bring a summoned apparition, which Zhao Luo was able to do, from their mind to life.
They could be brought as physical bodies with just a command.
That summoned apparition would have a solid form. The shape will be as the God that is summoning it would imagine it to be.
The book called this summon a 'Bandit'.
Zhao Luo stopped at this point as this was the last line of the page.
'Interesting'
Zhao Luo thought.
'Maybe I will be able to summon a lion bandit.'
Zhao Luo wondered. Then he went on to read the next page.
But before he could even turn the page, the words on the current page once again disappeared leaving Zhao Luo in shock again.
He had never read a book that had words appear on a blank page. And the page turning blank again once he was done reading those words.
Like why can't the words stay there from the start and not disappear once he is done reading them?
Then new words appeared on the same page.
This time they appeared faster than before. Zhao Luo was already getting used to this so he didn't go in a state of shock.
Zhao Luo starting reading again.
To his surprise, the title was still the same.
"Again 'KNOWLEDGE'. This must be a continuation to the ability of Gods."
Zhao Luo guessed and continued.
It was as he guessed. This time the writing continued from bandits.
The explanation was on the power of bandits.
Each summoned bandit could have different powers.
The power of the created 'bandit' completely depended on the quality of the boundary of the God that is summoning it and the rules of the space of that God.
Boundaries were a measure of God's power.
Every God could set rules in their boundary according to their will.
A weaker God will have a low-quality boundary. As the strength of a God increase, the quality of their boundary would increase.
This increase in the quality of boundary of that God affects the summoned 'bandit' increasing its power and its abilities as well.
The quality of the boundary was divided into nine levels.
Starting from trash ( black), wood, iron, bronze, silver, gold, platinum, diamond, and jadeite.

"Did I read it right?"
Zhao Luo was wondering if he saw it wrong after reading the qualities of the boundary.
He didn't think that there was a quality level of boundary named 'trash' while its color was mentioned along with it.
'How lucky one has to be to have the trash quality boundary?'
Zhao Luo had a thought.
Zhao Luo continued.
The summoned 'bandit' had nine levels too.
When the quality of the boundary is upgraded to the next level the summoned bandit will be that level too.
The lowest of the summoned bandit would be a 'trash bandit'.
The strongest should be a 'jadeite bandit'
Yet the book mentioned that sometimes a bandit could hold even more power than it is allowed in the jadeite boundary.
The bandit would then be a 'crimson bandit'.
The quality of the boundary was easily detected.
The name reflected the appearance of the boundary. A gold boundary would have gold shine. A diamond boundary would be giving a brilliant blinding shine of light with fiery color. The same goes for other boundaries.
Only the trash quality boundary would have no color yet the presence of that God's boundary could be easily felt.
That is, the boundary would be present yet missing out on any outstanding feature.
Thus the book decided to call such a God a trash level God. As God didn't train himself faithfully in his journey to becoming one.
"So one can still be trash after becoming a God. The hierarchy is still the same even if one becomes a God."
Zhao Luo chuckled but also felt fearful as he may become the one he is laughing on.
The words ended at the explanation of 'trash' quality.
Zhao Luo didn't even try turning the page. This time he was ready for the words to disappear.
Soon the words disappeared, the page was blank once again and then the next set of lines with new words appeared on the page.
The title this time was different. It was not knowledge, unlike the last two times.
Zhao Luo saw the title and knew that he was finally going to learn something useful.
"Ways"
Zhao Luo read the title which was written in grey color and the four letters shined with outstanding brightness.
The shine from the words calmed the excited Zhao Luo.
He went on to read the first line which went something like this.
There were many ways to become a God.
There were easy ways then there were hard ways then there were ways that were close to impossible to follow through but such ways showed results that were unachievable by other ways.
Now Zhao Luo thought of himself as he was already on one of the ways.
He didn't know which kind of way was he on. He thought of his journey of mastering the first step of Godhood that the old man had taught him was mastering the Naoli.
It may have been frustrating at times but it wasn't that hard for him.
'Maybe my method is one of the weaker ones.'
Zhao Luo thought and compared his method to one of the weaker ways just because he achieved the first step easily.
'Well, I will know soon.'
Zhao Luo didn't dwell on his thought about his way for too long and continued reading.
The next line was on the weaker ways. It explained in such a way that Zhao Luo knew that he was far from the weaker ways. Too far ahead.
As the next line's explanation was on how the weaker ways focus on getting to Godhood by achieving the requirements for becoming a God through the fastest ways.
This would help the guy in becoming the God in the shortest possible time yet after becoming the God, his power will be weak. He may even end up with the lowest quality boundary which was a 'trash boundary'.
The example given for this way was that the person will be able to create a single apparition after mastering the Naoli.
Whereas Zhao Luo was already able to create nine of them.
The harder the way was the longer it took to achieve each requirement on the path to Godhood.
Yet the result was opposite to the easy way.
The power a person will have once he becomes a God through this way will be immense and their initial boundaries will have one of the superior qualities.
The line ended here leaving Zhao Luo eager to know about the difficulty of his way to Godhood.
