Chapter 13 Upgraded

  Two days

  before all the chaos that Gray and Fantasma had coursed. Gray decided to rest

  and come up with a plan for the near future; he also did not plan to stop

  leveling up so that he had a fighting chance against the Larcripters and his

  enemies, the Okagos.

  After

  watching the ship take off and disappear, Gray and Fantasma walked to the

  farmhouse.

  Gray took

  out his phone, planning on letting Fantasma learn the local languages of Earth

  so that he would not have to speak in the dreadful Larcripters native tongue

  for her to understand him.

  “Damn, it’s

  almost flat,” Gray said as he looked at the flat battery icon displayed on his

  phone screen.

  “Where am I

  going to find a place to charge it? There is no more electricity in the

  farmhouse, nor are there any backup power sources to use.” Gray spoke in an

  annoyed tone, not too happy with the current situation he was in. It should be

  known that he had not charged his phone for days. Fantasma, on the other hand,

  noticed the primitive-looking device in Gray’s hand.

  “Gray is

  that a primitive computer or sort of communication device that you humans still

  use?” Fantasma asked Gray as she pointed at it.

  “Yep, that’s

  what we still use, the good old smartphone. The only problem is that there is

  no power to charge it.” Gray said this as he handed the phone over to Fantasma

  to look at it. Now that he was at Bio level 5, Fantasma could hold and interact

  with physical objects, she could also be seen by people if she wished to show

  herself. This was all made possible thanks to Gray’s Bioplasma.

  “But Gray,

  you could use your Bio plasma to charge this good old smartphone of yours.”

  Fantasma told Gray while she played around with the low-level peace of

  technology.

  “Really, I

  can do that?” Gray asked while pointing at himself; he then searched his

  memories for anything similar to what Fantasma had told him.

  As it turned

  out Gray had found something similar to what Fantasma had told him.

  This also

  surprised him as he thought. ‘I wonder how much data Fantasma downloaded, from

  all the information we had stolen from the Larcripters? Well, I would not say

  we stole it from a righteous party as the Larcripters invaded Earth, killed its

  inhabitants, and stole our resources. Plus, why would I care about those ugly

  pieces of trash in the first place.’

  He nodded

  his head, in accordance to his thoughts.

  He asked

  Fantasma with a curious look on his face. “Hay Fantasma how much of the

  Larcripters data did you download, or did you get all of the Larcripters

  information that I got too?”

  “Nope, I

  just have the basic version of all the information you have, to take reference

  from so that I can better assist you with it. As I have only just been encoded

  onto you and your Bio level is low, I only have a minimum amount of memory. My

  neural talent will grow as I level up.” Fantasma explained as she smiled at

  Gray from an upside-down position while she floated in the air.

  Gravity had

  minimum to no effects on Fantasma at all, her physical body was made up of

  Grays Bioplasma. Though it was made of his Bioplasma, she could only control

  small amounts of it; she could control more but would need his permission. She

  lives by siphoning off of small portions of his Bio plasma and her physical

  body does not use much ether.

  Stolen story; please report.

  “Oh, then I

  guess I should raise my Bio levels so that you could get better and assist me

  more,” Gray spoke as he looked at Fantasma, it was only now that he had noticed

  that she had become more human.

  He also

  noticed that she sort of had a child’s mindset, despite having an adult’s

  body.

  “So,

  Fantasma, can you give me the phone? I would like to see if I can charge it

  first. If I succeed, you can use it to learn Earth’s languages.” Gray spoke to

  Fantasma while holding his hand out.

  “Okay.”

  Fantasma handed Gray the phone, and she then continued to float around him.

  Once Gray

  got the phone, he then focused, and some of the Bio plasma in his body moved

  out and enveloped the phone in his hands. The grayish blue Bio plasma entered

  the phone, not long after the phone showed that it was charging. It took Gray

  about a minute to fully charge it with his Bioplasma.

  Stunned at

  how useful this newly acquired power was. He then had an idea. ‘What happens if

  I use my Bioplasma and alien knowledge in tandem? I’ll have to rearrange the

  way my phone is made and upgrade it with alien technology… let’s try it.’

  Gray’s

  Bioplasma reentered the phone, but this time it started to float above his

  palm.

  The

  grayish-blue Bio Plasma started to disassemble the phone; once it had been

  completely disassembled, some of its components began to liquefy and reform

  into something completely new.

  The whole

  process took Gray about 2 hours, from start to finish.

  The new

  phone had retained all of its old features. The only new things Gray had added

  to it were infrared and night vision to its camera and the phone was slightly

  smaller.

  He had also

  increased the image quality of the phone’s cameras to about 1 gigapixel; he

  gave the screen 8k image quality because his eyesight had become better, and he

  did not like seeing the pixels on the screen.

  He upgraded

  the storage, RAM, and CPU to an unbelievable level, and he stopped it from

  using electricity as a whole; its lithium battery had been converted to store

  Bio Plasma instead, and this inevitably made the phone much more powerful.

  The phone

  looked almost the same as a normal smartphone. The only difference was that it

  took on a grayish-blue color for its back cover. This was the second time Gray

  had a true taste of what he could do with his Bio Plasma and his advanced

  knowledge, this gave him some ideas for the future and also gave him a goal to

  work towards.

  “Hay,

  Fantasma, what Bio level would I require to make my very own spaceship?” Gray

  asked Fantasma as she was distracted by the newly upgraded phone in Gray’s

  hand.

  “Hmm, let me

  think?” Fantasma said this with her finger on her chin as she thought.

  “You would

  have to at least reach Bio level 10 to produce a small spaceship for yourself,

  that is if you have all the materials at hand.” She gave Gray the answer after

  thinking for a few seconds.

  “Nice, so

  now I know what to do,” Gray said while standing still; he then looked up to

  the sky and imagined himself having a giant warship. ‘One day I will make that

  a reality.’

  “Fantasma, I

  would like you to learn all of Earth’s languages through my phone while I level

  up,” Gray said with a determined look on his face.

  “I would

  like you to be able to understand Earth’s languages so that when I talk to

  other people, you would know what I’m saying. I also don’t want people to know

  of your existence yet.” Gray looked at Fantasma while wearing a serious look on

  his face.

  “No

  problem,” Fantasma spoke with a playful look on her face, she then took the

  phone out of Gray’s hand. She did not need to learn how to use such a simple

  piece of technology, even if Gray had upgraded it. For Fantasma, this was a

  piece of cake; she held onto the phone and went quiet.

  It seemed

  she did not even tap on the screen as it switched on and lines of code started

  being displayed. It looked like the phone was being used by a God-level coder

  or hacker; for Gray and Fantasma, the different types of computer code that

  humanity had made were like the ABCs to them as it did not take much work for

  them to understand it.

  Especially

  in its most basic form which is 1’s and 0’s. For Gray, this was thanks to the

  knowledge he had stolen from the Larcripters, and for Fantasma, it was due to

  her being an advanced AI; with Fantasma gaining sentience, things became much

  easier for her to understand.

  “Fantasma,

  I’m thinking of staying here for a while; I want to get some rest and come up

  with a plan for the future,” Gray said while opening the door of the abandoned

  farmhouse that he was now crashing at.

  “Yep.”

  Fantasma nodded as she entered the farmhouse with him.

  Gray walked

  into the lounge of the old farmhouse and decided to take a nap on the old couch

  while Fantasma learned all of mankind’s languages.
