Chapter 10: Enrolled in the Celestial Nexus Academy
As Musang stepped out of the capsule, the holographic AI, Ate, greeted him with a mixture of astonishment and pride. It seemed that Musang's relentless pursuit of mutated life forms had accelerated his progress to level 5, a feat not easily achieved in such a short span of time. Ate's holographic projection shimmered with excitement as he informed Musang of the next step in their journey. The hunter class at the Celestial Nexus Academy awaited them, promising valuable insights and advanced training. Musang's heart surged with anticipation, eager to join fellow hunters and learn from the best. The decision to visit the Celestial Nexus Mothership was made, and preparations were swiftly put in motion. A sense of responsibility weighed on Musang's mind as they readied to leave the planet behind, even temporarily. Ate assured him that the AI bots they had set in place would care for the planet during their absence, ensuring the delicate balance of life forms remained undisturbed. As they boarded the spaceship, the familiar hum of the engine brought a rush of nostalgia. The spaceship was their home among the stars, carrying them through the vastness of the Choco Galaxy. Musang couldn't help but feel a deep connection to this cosmic vessel that had become an integral part of his adventurous life. As they soared through space, the twinkling stars seemed to guide their way, leading them to the heart of the mothership. Upon arrival, the mothership was greeted by the watchful eyes of seasoned hunters. Musang was in awe of the array of ships and their battle scars, evidence of countless hunts and adventures that adorned their hulls. The academy itself was a marvel to behold, a colossal structure. It was a hub of knowledge and expertise, a place where hunters gathered to exchange wisdom and refine their skills. Upon arriving at the renowned Celestial Nexus Academy, Musang's excitement was tinged with nervousness. The administrators, a group of experienced hunters, welcomed him warmly. As the first order of business, they insisted on conducting a thorough body check. Musang concealed his shock, fearing they might detect his mutation. However, the AI's analysis revealed nothing unusual, and his relief was palpable. With his body check cleared, Musang was directed to a private room where a seasoned hunter awaited him. The hunter's demeanor was calm yet inquisitive, and Musang could feel the weight of their gaze, studying him closely. Automatically, the room began recording their conversation as the hunter delved into questions about Musang's chosen weapon and his knowledge of life forms ranging from level 1 to 5. With confidence, Musang shared insights on their speed, vitality, and weaknesses, focusing on the creatures he had encountered during his adventurous hunts. The hunter raised an eyebrow when he learned of Musang's preference for the bow and arrow, a weapon rarely favored by newcomers. Nevertheless, after considering Musang's background as an orphan and his evident passion for hunting, the enrollment result was positive—a pass. "Congratulations," the hunter said with a nod. " When the dawn of the new month arrives, and your strength ascends to level 6, the gates of knowledge shall open before you. The long-awaited commencement of your lessons shall be unveiled, and the mysteries of the universe will be laid bare for you to grasp. You're officially enrolled. You can access the class details through your menu. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message." As Musang left the academy, a new contact appeared in his list: "Instructor." However, the name remained hidden, adding an aura of mystery to the upcoming classes. With Ate by his side, Musang exited the academy, eager to explore the mothership and the bustling hub of humanity. For the first time, Musang was taken aback by the sight of numerous humans bustling through the vast expanse of the mothership. The air was alive with anticipation and determination, and Musang sensed the collective ambition that permeated the atmosphere. Roaming through the thriving human community, Musang felt a sense of belonging and purpose. The knowledge that he was now part of this grand academy, bound to a network of skilled hunters, filled him with pride. He was no longer a lone adventurer but a student of a prestigious institution that had stood the test of time. Musang's eyes darted across the dazzling display of cube servers, each one a technological marvel in its own right. The memory of Ate's current physical placement resurfaced in Musang's mind. A surge of curiosity coursed through him as he wondered about the capabilities of the higher-generation servers. With a newfound resolve, Musang turned to Ate, seeking answers to his burning question. "What's the highest Gen server available right now?" he inquired, his voice brimming with anticipation. Ate, the ever-reliable AI, responded without hesitation. "The highest Gen server currently in existence is the magnificent Gen 11 server," it revealed, its tone tinged with awe. The revelation sent a shiver down Musang's spine, filling him with wonder and excitement. Gen 11 - an unprecedented level of intelligence and possibilities. It was beyond anything he had ever imagined. His mind raced with visions of what Ate could achieve, the untapped potential it held, and the vast horizons it could unlock. Determined to ascend to new heights, Musang knew that he must work diligently to attain the necessary resources and knowledge to upgrade Ate. Amidst his exploration of the vast mothership, Musang's eyes fell upon an array of futuristic bots and an impressive assortment of advanced weaponry. However, amongst the cutting-edge technology, he couldn't help but notice a scarcity of bows. Curiosity piqued, he questioned Ate about the absence of archery equipment. Ate's response shed light on the matter, explaining that bows and other hunting gear could easily be purchased through the market and conveniently delivered straight to their home planet. The revelation eased Musang's mind, knowing that he could obtain the necessary equipment without much hassle. As he continued his wanderings through the mothership's corridors, another discovery left him slightly taken aback. The price of stat liquids and tokens was surprisingly steep, costing a substantial 5 million credits per injection. Ate, once again, was there to provide clarification, assuring him that AI had taken care of him. With each level gained, he would receive complimentary stat upgrades, along with a daily allowance of tokens to support his daily needs. The revelation brought a sense of relief, knowing that he had the support and resources needed to thrive in this new galactic world. As the mysteries of the mothership unfolded before him, Musang's determination to grow stronger and ascend to greater heights burned brighter than ever. As the mothership adventure drew to a close, Musang and Ate efficiently finished their tasks, making the most of their time within the gleaming vessel. With a sense of purpose, they swiftly departed, setting their course back to their home planet in the Choco Galaxy. As the spaceship hummed through the cosmos, Musang's excitement grew. His heart yearned to continue his relentless pursuit of mutated life forms. Eagerly, he entered the familiar capsule, ready to embark on another thrilling hunt. Ate, always by his side, ensured that the bot on their planet mirrored every move he made in the virtual realm. Within the capsule, Musang was fully immersed in the captivating hunt. His senses honed, he tracked the life forms with precision. The beauty of the Choco Galaxy unfolded before him like a breathtaking canvas of wonder, as he darted from one encounter to another. The connection between the capsule and the bot on his home planet allowed him to be both hunter and guardian. The delicate ecosystem of the Choco Galaxy was now under his watchful eye, and he navigated with care, never disrupting the harmony of its life forms. With each successful hunt, Musang felt his vitality and agility grow. The anticipation of reaching level 6 and joining the enigmatic academy filled him with renewed determination. The lessons and mysteries that awaited him there tantalized his imagination
