Evolution Cube

The Evolution Cube was a relic of the Evolutionary Civilization that was very close to becoming a Universal Civilization before they were destoryed. The technological essence within it had long been lost. Even when it was in Psyker’s hands, the Arcane Church could not understand it. Han Xiao had only tested the various parameters of the Evolution Cube.

The Evolution Cube can stimulate the potential of a living being, allowing it to evolve greatly in a short period of time. It can automatically adjust the gene structure of an individual to ensure that it is the optimum gene structure. Furthermore, the the Evolution Cube can increase one’s mental strength. The upper limit is still unknown.

There were comparatively fewer restrictions on this Universal Treasure. The Evolution Cube would absorb multi-dimensional and dark energy to charge up automatically. The method to use it over a large area was to cover an entire area with the Evolution Cube's energy. That way, all the creatures within that area would be evolved.

This evolution energy was considered in the rage of Space Wonders. Due to it exceeding all kinds of gene medicine and gene hormones, It was as if countless years of natural evolution were all concentrated in one device!

During evolution, the cube would release a black particle mist over an area that would wrap an individual in a black cocoon to help the particles seep into their cells and stimulate genetic optimization. After the acclimation process, the black cocoon would shatter.

The evolution process even has the chance to unlock new abilities, or release restrictions on certain abilities.

Additionally, for each additional energy attribute level, one would be able to access an additional layer of genetically optimized attributes as a reward. Hence, the stronger one’s body was, the better the effect of one’s first use. The attributes awarded were based on a variety of factors, such as cell activity, life span, and species—of which the species had the greatest impact. The Evolution Cube would be optimized based on the race, and if one’s racial species was more powerful, their benefits would be greater.

When the Evolution Cube was used for the second time onward, it would not be calculated based on the new strength level but rather repeat the optimization process for each layer. However, the attributes given would be greatly reduced, with each subsequent usage giving out less than the previous one, until there was no effect. Only through the sublimation into a new racial species would one then regain some benefits, but even that would be far less effective than the first use of the Evolution Cube.

Players would also suffer from experience penalties upon using the Evolution Cube. Each time the Evolution Cube was utilized, there would be a forty percent experience penalty, and the duration would depend on the number of genetic optimizations obtained.

There is also a Special Condition that states, "On your first time utilizing the Evolution Cube, you unlocked more than ten layers of genetic optimizations...In the next advancement, you will receive an additional opportunity to perform a Race Evolution." This special condition has shown to be active in NPC as well as players.

### Evolutionary Totem

Used the energy of the Evolution Cube as fuel, and the influence of the totem could be adjusted to cover up to the entire planet. Unlike the one-time improvement of the Evolution Cube, the effect of the totem device was gentler, similar to a buff. If maintained for a long period of time, it would slowly increase the talent and potential of a planet’s inhabitants so that the awakening rate of the planet’s supers soared. This was equivalent to transforming the planet, allowing the newborns to become stronger.

There was only one Evolution Cube, but one could create as many Evolutionary Totems as they wished. They just had to be charged to be used.

Because the totem device slowly altered one’s genes, the advantage was that the effect was not restricted by one’s strength level. Furthermore, there was no side effect like Exp Penalty.

Under the effects the individuals would experience the buff, "[Continuous Genetic Optimization]: You are enveloped by evolutionary radiation, and your potential qualifications will slowly increase, which will add more options when sublimating into a new life level."

### Ovitan Badge

This device is worn on the body and used Evolutionary energy as fuel. It could carry out an ultimate evolution of the wearer when activated regardless of the consequences, turning a normal person into a biological aberration. Their combat power could even reach Grade C or B just from the evolution. This effect was more potent than any strength enhancing drugs, and the duration ranged from hours to days. However, when the effect ended, the user would collapse and die.

There was also a chance to break through the genetic locks and become a perfect evolutionary being, but the chance was so miniscule that it was not considered at all.

Under the effects the individuals would experience the buff, "[Evolution Limit: Aberration]: Your genes have been reconstructed by the [Ovitan Badge], and your Class has been temporarily changed to [High Grade Biological Aberration].

Basic END boost will be transformed to 1:200, +30% STR, DEX, and END. -50% INT, MYS, and CHA.

Additional attribute changes: +240 STR, +200 DEX, +200 END, -300 INT, -300 MYS, -500 CHA.

1.3x physical resistance, 0.4x mental resistance, +200% Health and Stamina recovery speed.

You will lose 300–600 Health every minute, and your Health will fall by 30% – 60% every half an hour. Your Health limit is reduced by 10,000 – 20,000 every hour.

-90% effectiveness of any close combat equipment (including but not limited to mechanical equipment and magic tools). A portion of incompatible skills and talents will be frozen (unusable). +100% energy and stamina consumption of skills. Your close combat attacks will have [Hack] and [Sweep] effects. +70% close combat damage. +25% [Suppressing Force] and [Crushing Force] success rate.

Remark: Dance to your heart’s content before your death!"

### Gene Collapse Missile

A special missile that carried the evolutionary energy similar to that of the Ovitan Badge. After hitting the surface, the energy would spread and contaminate all living beings within the range, and they would all turn into aberrations and experience genetic collapse, until they eventually died.

## History

Since Pysker found the evolution cube and held onto it for many years, he was able to use his physic bond with the cube through a Soul Connection.

### Previous Timeline:

Pysker original had it until EsGod tried to steal it after that The Arcane Church took custody in the name of protecting it. they would eventual allow players to use the cube in exchange for Contribution Points and Enas.

### Current Timeline:

The Evolution Cube plays an integral part of Universal Grade Civilizations relations for much of the book, many events have revolved around the Evolution Cube. It all started when Han Xiao knowing of the events about to happen, used his knowledge to steal it from EsGod, he ended up having to fight a few Beyond Grade As for it.

After the capture of EsGod, additional uses of the Evolution Cube are found, including the Evolution Totem and the Aberration Badge, which make the Evolution Cube a strategic Space Treasure coveted by all three Universal Grade Civilizations, as well as other Beyond A Grades. However, Black Star is able to maintain sole ownership and control over the Evolution Cube, and eventually remains undefeated among the Beyond As Grades who seek to possess it for themselves.

Han Xiao uses the Evolution Cube to further his influence and power this creates major ripples in the universe.

Han Xiao used his possession of the Evolution Cube to Presser the Crimson Dynasty into giving him resources for his growth, and better treatment in the dynasty. in exchange they would get to monopolize the Evolution Cube and Evolution Totem and get preferential pricing. the Crimson Dynasty where so desperate to control the Evolution Cube they even offered Han Xiao 3 Space Wonders for it. there was fierce fighting in the upper echelons about whether they should forces Han Xiao to hand the Cube over and it almost happened, but was stopped because the neutral faction representative Ludwell stopped supporting the hawk faction representative Bekorodi in partitioning for the confiscation of the Cube because Han Xiao saved his grand son.

In response to the monopolisation of the two Universal Grade Civilizations (The Arcane Church, and The Federation of Light) used the Limitless Financial Group to pressure Han Xiao. After the Crimson Dynasty opens sale of the Evolution Totem with the other two Universal Civilizations, the Limitless Financial Group stops direct hostilities with the Black Star Legion (and Germinal Organization). (IDK if that 100% right got it from **Limitless Financial Group** page i acutal think it was Bekorodi who was doing this)

in chapter 1218, the soon to be Crimson Dynasty head Marbruce Peel Stanson and Bekorodi use Gaud to try and analyze the energy composition of the **Evolution Cube** directly disregarding Urranrell order not to attempt it as the original plan was outdated. "The Black Star Army had been growing stronger too quickly over the past years. The risk of this plan had increased rapidly. After Black Star became the Special Safety Consultant of the three Universal Civilizations, this plan was indefinitely postponed." it was meant to give the Crimson Dynasty a chance to secretly crack part of the mechanisms of the Evolution Cube, so the Dynasty would acquire this technology as a form of insurance.

Unfortunately Han Xiao realizes who Gaud really is and Seals him in a Space Time Amber.
