I didn’t expect this virtualization function would work.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From a guest to a basic user, Nash’s virtual permission allowed him to virtualize his body, like a spectator who couldn’t be harmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing his mocking chuckle, Natasha was enraged and went berserk, destroying everything in sight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unable to move under her pressure, most couldn’t virtualize in time and were brutally killed by Natasha.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bad luck! The witch went berserk!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Luckily I clicked virtualization in an instant!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That brat was so daring. Isn’t he scared of death?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t mention it—he must have balls of diamond!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, seriously? How could he hit that witch? Twice, no less!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you laughing at?! How dare you praise such an ungentlemanly act?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you even a man? How could you slap a girl like that?!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk, Camilla must have poor taste! How could she like a violent man?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Perhaps she’s a masochist!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they argued over Nash’s outrageous actions, Natasha calmed down after trashing half of the grand hall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soon, those who had died also began to materialize, informed by others that Natasha was done.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still feeling the pain of their deaths, they glared at Nash with hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though they couldn’t die in the virtual world, the pain felt as real as it could be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your name is Noir, right?\" Natasha gritted her teeth, recalling Nash’s name.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is... It’s an honor you remember my name. But, next time, please be gentle and less arrogant. It might ruin your elegant image.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good! Good! You, Noir, are truly daring! Camilla, it seems the man you found is wilder than you!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha, Captain, don’t take it to heart...\" Camilla laughed wryly, sensing her anger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She hadn’t expected Nash to slap Natasha so boldly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Will you be alright?\" Nash whispered, his voice laced with deep worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t worry. Though Captain Natasha is fierce, she’s not bad at heart,\" Camilla said with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Natasha might seem like an impulsive woman, quick to anger, but when it came to responsibility and loyalty, Natasha could even sacrifice her life for others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>About seventy years ago, Natasha was only eliminated from the Domain-Level Cosmic Competition because her teammates held her back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Facing unprecedented danger, she held the fort, giving time to others to escape the Dark Plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, the battle caused devastating injuries, ending her ability to continue the trial.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this, Natasha should have learned his lesson and picked a stronger teammate or gone alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, instead of that, she honed her strength to better protect her team.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not joining the following cosmic competition after, she has trained until now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was why the Nova Military Academy entrusted their top students to her, confident they wouldn’t be betrayed or endangered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see. If you can’t stand her, come with me...\" Nash said, holding her hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having offended the strongest among them and left a bad impression, Nash doubted he could join any team now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Meanwhile, seeing Nash still had the guts to ignore her, Natasha touched her cheeks, as if recalling the slap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The new generation is getting more and more audacious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As if her words took form, an otherworldly man with silver hair elegantly walked through the ruined hallway.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he moved, the world seemed to burst back into color.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Skylar Nova, a direct descendant of the Nova family and the greatest prodigy since the Nova Sector’s founding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Awakening his genetic ability at birth and enhancing it to heaven level with his first genetic potion, he was hailed as the Star Nova who outshone his entire generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him followed equally gifted individuals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luca, the most talented void tamer, who single-handedly subdued a cub of a War God beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nora, a beauty with both brains and brawn, who became a Tier 1 scientist at such a young age.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they entered, the chatter subsided, replaced by looks of respect and admiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk, what a show-off,\" Natasha muttered in annoyance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Isn’t that Alessia?\" Nash thought, spotting the woman beside Skylar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hadn’t expected the woman who helped him in the library to be the famous child prodigy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder she knew so much about the rules of the Spirit Pavilion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that girl pretty?\" Camilla squinted, noticing Nash’s attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What girl? I’m looking at Skylar. Is he more handsome than me?\" Nash whispered in Camilla’s ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There’s no comparison. If your appearance is that of a god, he’s at most a prince of an empire,\" Camilla murmured without hesitation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though Nash’s appearance lacked special effects, it was only because he hadn’t mastered the elemental laws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In terms of raw looks, Skylar barely reached a tenth of Nash’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is that true?\" Overhearing them, Natasha glanced curiously at Nash’s mask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, it’s not! My husband is very ugly!\" Camilla quickly denied, eyeing her defensively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was thankful Nash wore a mask; otherwise, she might not have been able to control her captain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tsk, isn’t it just a face? Can’t I take a look?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more Camilla hid it, the more curious Natasha became.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stingy~\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is Skylar really that strong?\" Nash asked, watching Skylar and his group settle in, waiting for the assembly to start.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Strong? Hah, strong is an understatement,\" Natasha muttered, her voice tinged with complex emotions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If he’s so strong, why is he only a Void Warrior right now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite the restrictions on how early one could absorb void energy, given his resources and devastating talent, Skylar should have been at least a Void Commander now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So why was he lingering at Void Warrior rank?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hah! It’s because that brat is quite ambitious. You’ll find out in the future...\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1024,"2026-06-06T08:03:14.165Z",1,"novelbin.me","f78e89a24935347b104822efecb6bbb2798fafdd3dbfda69d585268a5a90e452","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-11","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-177",665,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-program-my-body-cover.jpg"]
