Neurolink System in the Modern World

While in the Uber car, I decided to check my status and allocate up my points.

I'd delayed reviewing my stats during my time on the island, wanting to first gauge how my plan in Seoul was going. Luckily, everything seemed fine, so I could now distribute my points without any urgent concerns, in a calm and focused manner.

===========

I had gained enough attributes to finally boost my Mind Power to a solid 10 points. However, I realized that upgrading it while on the move wasn't the safest option, as unexpected things could happen during the process.

"Find a safe spot, park the car, and keep me safe," I directed the driver using my suggestion.

Without hesitation, he swiftly searched for a secure location, brought the car to a stop, and stepped out to stand guard, ensuring a safe environment for the upgrade.

[Mind Power 7.7 —> 10.1 ]

I was super excited to find out what random skill I would get after hitting 10 points in Mind Power. I mean, come on, with Mind Power already giving me cool stuff like telekinesis as a base, I was expecting something seriously overpowered.

But not all dreams come true without a sacrifice. The moment my Mind Power hit 10, I felt a sudden headache pounding in my head.

"Ouch!" I blurted out, grabbing my head like it was getting drilled. It felt like this crazy rush in my brain, kinda like an earthquake but in my head. The sensation was overwhelming, as if a storm of energy had suddenly surged through my mind.

All of a sudden, my vision went blank, and I found myself in a pitch-dark place.

'Is this my dream world?' I wondered to myself, attempting to gain control, but nothing happened. It was just pure darkness—no shapes, no colors, just an endless void of darkness.

I tried looking at my hands, but it was as if they vanished. I could feel the presence of a hand, the sensation was there, but I couldn't see them.

"System! Where did you take me?" I shouted, but it dawned on me that even my voice seemed non existent in this void.

"What is happening?" I asked myself, utterly confused. There were no windows, no HUD (Head-Up Display). There was no system.

With limited options, I decided to walk forward. I figured panicking wouldn't help, so I just kept going.

After a few minutes, I spotted a door in the distance. It caught my attention because it was the only thing not engulfed by the darkness around me.

As I reached the door, I noticed its rustic but futuristic design. It looked like it was made of yellow wood, yet surprisingly solid. There were distinct patterns on it that contrasted with its wooden appearance. These patterns resembled glowing lines, similar to what you might see in a futuristic movie, adding an unexpected and intriguing touch to the overall design.

CLACK!

I turned the doorknob, only to realize that it was locked.

CLACK

I tried again, putting all my strength into it, but it didn't budge.

'Maybe I need to use my mind power?' I muttered to myself, attempting to use telekinesis to move the doorknob. To my surprise, even my mind power seemed ineffective in this place.

'Don't tell me that I'm trapped here?' I thought to myself. Despite the uncertainty, I remained calm.

Seconds turned to minutes, and minutes turned to hours. I lost track of time, and at this point, I didn't really care anymore. But for some reason, I don't feel any fear at all.

Suddenly, something changed in this never-ending darkness. I saw a crack in the space, and a huge flash of light blinded me. When my vision returned, I found myself back in the car. After checking my watch, only a minute had passed.

'What the hell was that place? And what about that door?' I leaned back in my seat, trying to make sense of what had just happened.

But before I could fully process everything, a notification chimed in.

"Wait, this thing sounds like that ninjutsu!" I exclaimed after reading the description.

Of course, it wasn't exactly the same as ninja techniques, but with this skill, I could simulate a similar effect.

As an otaku, the allure of becoming a ninja almost made me forget about that dark place. I'm ready to unleash my inner shinobi! .

After satisfying my inner child and joking around, I decided to delve deeper into the details of the skill.

'So basically, I can create a projection using telekinesis. Telekinesis is normally invisible, but with this thing, it can project itself. At the same time, it doubles the durability of the projection and also reduces the consumption to 25% compared to normal telekinesis,' I muttered to myself.

It was a bit flashy, but doubling the durability of my telekinesis was a big plus. Depending on my initial design, my Aegis Projections could act like a walking tank on its own. The added resilience made it a formidable force, and the creative possibilities had me excited about the potential applications in various situations.

"This thing is not good for me because I'm such a humble guy," I acted disappointed, but deep inside, I was grinning like crazy.
