Don’t play dumb. If you don’t have a badge, just stay in the shelter.\" Tossing him aside, the guard continued working.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Frowning, Nash backed away, wondering what the guard meant by a badge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking around, he noticed that everyone had one, symbolizing their identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether entering an establishment or buying items, each person was evaluated based on the number of stars on their badge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After asking around, he finally understood what these badges were.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Battle Badge was a symbol of honor and ability implemented in the Nova sector over the past few hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apparently, the new generation had started underestimating the Dark Plane, venturing in without enough skill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, over the past few thousand years, the Nova sector’s talent pool has remained low.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Too many were dying needlessly in the Dark Plane, and with fewer fresh talents, the Nova sector was in perpetual decline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tired of watching reckless youths rush to their deaths, the Nova sector established a new rule, the Battle Badge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Each rank was divided into stars, from one to five.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The number of stars determines a person’s privileges, discounts, and status.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Likewise, each shelter zone had restrictions based on badge rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Lantern Shelter, where Nash was now, was a beginner-level area, allowing only Void Warriors with one to three stars to hunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone outside that range could not venture out and had to remain in the shelter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Violators, if caught, would be fined or, in the worst case, imprisoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since the rule had only been implemented a few hundred years ago, it wasn’t included in the basic Dark Plane handbook.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After learning the rules, Nash sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once a shelter was deemed safe by the Dark Plane’s will or the so-called Void Administrator, it could connect with other safe shelters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By paying a certain merit, one could travel between shelters within the Dark Plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, Nash had been summoned to a basic shelter and didn’t have to waste merits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The only problem was the Battle Badge.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To get one, a person had to be evaluated at a Nova Physical Center, either in the virtual world or reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Nash couldn’t access either one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Much less the Nova Physical Center in reality, Nash couldn’t even access the one virtual world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Remembering Earth’s void signal was still blocked, he could only clench his fist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fine, I’ll wait...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With no way to hunt Dark Beasts, Nash returned to reality.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Waking up, he didn’t feel the same grogginess as when he used the virtual helmet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This virtual Dark Pod is quite high-end.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Opening the pod, he saw his squadmates looking at him excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Captain, how was it? Can you really absorb void energy by killing Dark Beasts?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After reading about the Dark Plane, they couldn’t help but be excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The idea of growing stronger just by killing monsters fascinated them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It opened a whole new perspective.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They realized that beyond internal rivalries, the true enemy of all intelligent beings was the Dark Beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Containing them within the Dark Plane was only the first step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the dark beasts accumulated in large numbers, they could break into reality, bringing destruction and chaos.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wanting to contribute and grow stronger by hunting Dark Beasts, they couldn’t wait to enter the Dark Plane.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, the basic information revealed that only official Void Warriors could enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I only entered a shelter. As for killing a Dark Beast, I didn’t even see one...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why? Are Dark Beasts rare in the Dark Plane?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, I just can’t leave the base...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nash quickly explained the matter of the Battle Badge, leaving his squadmates stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This—so you’re still stuck with us, Captain?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughing at the irony, they couldn’t help but tease him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Enough. We still have about 3,000 contribution points and hundreds of void crystals. That should be enough for you to advance to an official Void Warrior.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After he advanced to a void warrior, it was their turn to take the next step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes, Captain!\" they saluted excitedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although they lacked natural talent, with enough void crystals, they were confident they could advance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Returning to their private rooms, they started their rigorous training.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Left alone, Nash turned his attention to the Runic Modules System.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite his leap in strength, his Runic Module System remained stagnant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since he had nothing else to do, it was time for a major upgrade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>---\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"First is the [Overloading Module System] and [Overclocking Module System].\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Working without rest for an entire week, Nash upgraded both systems from 10 amplifications to 15.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With void energy reinforcing his body, he could now handle greater power multiplications.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Activating 15 times the amplification, his body could last about 10 seconds.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In that state, his strength would be comparable to a Void Warrior at 75% saturation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that power and his combat skills, Nash was confident he could fight Edward evenly. With a weapon, he could take him down instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Unfortunately, this is the limit...\" Nash sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless he made a massive breakthrough, 15 times the amplification was his limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The leap from 9% to 10% saturation was like crossing the threshold of life and death. Thus, his reinforcement was akin to a rebirth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next time he would experience such an increase in power would be at 30%, 70%, and finally 100% void saturation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or, if he mastered more runic programs, he could design a more advanced Runic Module System that put less strain on his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unfortunately, out of 2,322 runic programs, he had only studied 1,276.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he mastered all of them, not only could he refine the existing runic modules to perfection, but also create new ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for incorporating void energy, it was still beyond his abilities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even with his eyes at 100% saturation rate, he could only perceive the presence of void energy—its brightness, density, and flow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was like mist without form. He could see it, but not analyze or control it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the [Overloading Module System] and [Overclocking Module System] updated, Nash shifted his focus to the [Training Module System] and the Crimson Eye Astral Art.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hah... this is going to take a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1019,"2026-06-06T08:03:14.164Z",1,"novelbin.me","48c5ebfca0f31175c27eabf2733524384902d8926eb7482902ade9519da24468","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-52","i-can-program-my-body-chapter-300",665,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-can-program-my-body-cover.jpg"]
