Atticus’s Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground - Chapter 414

Chapter 414: Immeasurable
Harrison offered no response to Isabella’s remark.

He simply removed his gaze away from the white pod Atticus was in and turned towards a procession of large screens displaying the interior and body shapes of the pods clearly.

Harrison’s gaze focused on the middle where a particular white haired boy was being displayed.

Hushed whispers filled the space as different individuals walked about the room. Each of this individuals was dressed in white lab coats, with many of them holding large pads like screens, taking down notes rapidly as the stats of the trio in the pods kept on changing.

If one should look closer, they would see some of these individuals whispering under their breaths while stealing glances at Harrison and Isabella, the duo standing behind them.

Their surprise was expected.

None of them could understand just why Harrison, their vice principal, had chosen to witness the assimilation of a bunch of first year exosuits. It didn’t make any sense.

They were even more baffled about the fact that the white haired kid was using their experimental assimilation pod.

For the routine process they each planned on doing, it didn’t make much sense.

The door to the room suddenly parted open, and from it, one man walked into the room.

He was wearing a white lab coat and had a slender figure.

His blue hair was messy, and he had weary looks on his face as though he wanted nothing more than to end it all, typical features of the Enigmalnk family members.

Despite the demotivated look, the man carried himself with an air of confidence, his green eyes gazing around the room with piercing intensity.

The hushed whispers permeating the space immediately quieted down as this man entered.

The man turned towards where Harrison was standing and instantly approached. Reaching him in under a second, he bowed in respect and offered his greetings, his voice barely audible as though he was forcing himself to speak,

“Vice principal,”

Harrison turned his gaze towards the man and nodded in acknowledgment,

“Zarathustra. If you don’t mind, I would like you to begin,” Harrison instructed.

Zarathustra stood up straight from his bow, and his tired face couldn’t help but turn a bit reluctant,

“Vice principal, with all due respect, I can’t help but object to this. Every single test we’ve carried out using this new specimen has ended up a failure.

“And in case you forgot, our test subjects were fully grown adults with acceptable talents and a larger threshold for pain than any teenager could possibly have.

“The risk for failure is too high, and you are well aware of the consequences; he would need years for his body to be properly recovered before he would get his suit,”

Zarathustra tried to convince Harrison, but gazing at his unfazed reaction, he couldn’t help but shake his head. Many would be shocked that he had even spoken this much in the first place.

He turned his gaze towards Isabella standing beside him while gesturing towards Harrison, mouthing a ‘talk to him.’

Isabella shrugged her shoulders but instead chose to respond out loud, “He’s too stubborn to listen.”

Hearing this, Zarathustra sighed. ‘Okay then,’

He turned around in the next instance and started walking towards the large screens displaying the trio.

The other men in lab coats bowed in respect as Zarathustra approached them. Most of these individuals were also from the Enigmalnk family, with only a few from other families.

The Enigmalnk family had always been the brains of the human domain, so it was no surprise that their top scientists would come from there.

Considering the respect shown by all, it was clear that Zarathustra standing was higher than the others.

He was none other than Zarathustra Enigmalnk, one of the principal scientists in the entire academy.

Similar to many major organizations, the academy’s scientific community was structured into various departments, each dedicated to different research areas.

Among these departments, Zarathustra headed the Exosuit Division, focusing specifically on the development and advancement of exosuit technology.

It was unusual to see a man of such high standing here. Zarathustra would normally not involve himself in trivial matters like this.

As he reached the screens, he focused his gaze on the screen displaying Atticus.

‘But why this Ravenstein kid exactly?’ Zarathustra couldn’t help but wonder. What was so special about Atticus that would make Harrison want to risk this much for him?

“Hand me his data,” Zarathustra instructed, and one of the other scientists nodded, immediately handing him a large transparent screen.

Zarathustra tapped on it, accessing the data of Atticus.

In their department, he was one of the very few that was authorized to view the students’ data.

The data was not too comprehensive, but it contained important information about the individual, with each category graded from F as the lowest to S grade as the highest.

Since the advent of the Exosuits, only a handful of individuals had ever received an S grade, and that was only in some categories.

This was one of the reasons why they monitored and gathered the youths’ data for a year, in order to be accurately assess them.

Zarathustra’s eyes moved at a fast speed as he went through Atticus’s data. It didn’t even take a second before his eyes widened in absolute shock.

‘What the hell is this?’ The other scientists looked at Zarathustra, wide eyed in disbelief, as he stared at the screen, his hand shaking in confusion.

What could make him react this way? They each wondered.

If only they could see what Zarathustra was seeing, then they wouldn’t be this calm.

‘This is astounding!’ He thought as he double checked if what he was seeing was the correct assessment.

• Name: Atticus Ravenstein

• Age: 16

• Year: 1st year

• Assessment:

• Mana compatibility: Immeasurable

• Mana purity index: Immeasurable

• Physical Endurance Potential: Immeasurable

• Strength and Agility Potential: Immeasurable

• Vitality and Health Potential: Immeasurable

…

The list was endless.

It went without saying that the appearance of an Immeasurable in just one of these categories was enough to completely baffle Zarathustra.

But the fact that it appeared in basically everything made his heart freeze.
