The Place Where Everything Begins

Chapter 64 - The Halfling Race



At this moment, countless information and knowledge ran past Jeremy\'s mind at the speed of light.

It was lucky for him that he was currently in the deepest part of his own \'soul\', as he didn\'t have to bear the heavy burden of an enormous amount of information, which was supposed to weigh on his mind heavily.

As all those light-speed information only flew past his mind with no specific purpose or any intention of fussing him with the \'burden\', Jeremy didn\'t feel a thing at all.

But the real trouble would commence soon...

Upon seeing he was finally within his soul, Jeremy willed, in other words, requested his soul for all his past life\'s knowledge about \'wolf\'.

Suddenly...

*Bang*

Like someone had powerfully slapped a metal door, the banging sound rang out within his fragile mind...

Soon after, a \'small\' part of that light-speed information flying back and forth within his soul suddenly came into his mind.

That \'small\' part was actually a massive amount of information, knowledge, rumor, experiment, and research about \'wolf\'.

Even some arrays, diagrams, formulas, and many more related stuff to his various research also came up endlessly.

They started resurfacing within his mind and reuniting with him once again after several months of being apart. After all, they were kept isolated within the deepest part of Jeremy\'s soul ever since his regression.

Ranging from those wolves of the \'grub\' ranks to the \'almighty\' wolves of the highest ranks such as wolf, kobold, werewolf, lycanthrope, Wereking, and so on. Whether it be about habits, habitats, reproductions, fighting power, physical appearance, mental health, halflings, hierarchy, and many more...

All of them came into Jeremy\'s mind all at once...

\'Fucking shit! I must hurry up.\'

After thinking so, Jeremy started filtering out all those high-end beings and stuff out of his mind swiftly, leaving only the weak and moderate ones behind.

By the words \'weak\' and \'moderate\', they meant the low-level kinds of stuff and the organisms of the lowest, low, and intermediate rank.

*Sigh*

After successfully reducing the information overload pressuring upon his fragile mind to a minimal degree, Jeremy let out a virtual sigh.

Because he had no actual body in his sea of consciousness, whereas his body was constructed by his own mind and imagination, he could only sigh virtually...

\'Hmm... the winter wolves... beta wolves... omega wolves... Whereas there are no alpha wolves in this forest, but there are still occasionally beta ones... Wait, what!?... halflings? How are these lowest-ranked organisms even related to the halflings?\'

While sorting out the information and experience from his past life, then comparing that information with his current situation one by one, Jeremy unexpectedly found something shocking...

That was...

The halflings...

To be frank, the halfling was not considered an \'actual\' race but a combination of at least two races or more.

In this case, when Jeremy was filtering and organizing the knowledge he got from his soul, he suddenly found out that those white wolves, no... every white wolf within this winter forest was a descendant of some halflings...

All of them were not from different packs in the first place but happened to be \'one big pack\' with one or two big bosses, which were the halflings...

There were two reasons why Jeremy assumed those wolves to be descendants of some halflings. First of all, their behaviors of acting with only omega and beta wolves with no trace of an alpha wolf within the pack. Secondly, many packs of wolves had actually joined hands to hunt him down, but still no trace of an alpha wolf so far.

That\'s where the shocking realization came, for those wolves to be offsprings of the halflings.

How was that supposed to be shocking, you asked?

It was because even the lowest and weakest of the halfling kinds still ranked at a higher hierarchy than the human race.

As the human race was already a low-ranked organism, which meant the weakest halfling \'race\' would be ranked at the intermediate rank at the very least, which was one rank higher than humans.

Regarding how a halfling \'race\' was created, as stated above, it was combined and bred from two races at the very least.

However, there were two more crucial conditions for a halfling \'race\' to be born.

First, the halfling must be bred by two high-ranked-organism parents of different races or species.

That\'s right, two high-ranked species...

Second, those high-ranked-organism parents must be from the bestial races with no exception.

A bestial race which was renowned in the aspect of \'physical strength\'...

With those conditions above being met, a brand-new halfling \'race\' would come into existence.

That was now a halfling race was created...

\'What to do now? The parents, no... The alphas of those white wolves were actually halflings. Will I be able to defeat them? But this place is supposed to be a normal-difficulty trial...\'

Having thought of fighting with an intermediate-ranked organism at the very least, Jeremy finally tensed up...

But he would never lose his coo...

\'Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Whatever, I will think about that later, for my time here is very limited.\'

*Fwuuu...*

At last, Jeremy let out a long virtual breath from his virtual mouth...

Then his eyes suddenly got the coolness and concentration back again, befitting his same old mentality. That\'s because whatever it was or they were, Jeremy still had his \'trump cards\' up his sleeve.

He would still undeniably turn this tutorial upside down and break the highest records to ever exist on Ortus...

\'Alright, the next topics are also important, as they are about the tutorial and that creator or something.\'

After shaking his virtual head hard to discard the earlier unpleasant thoughts, Jeremy decided to keep only the related information about the halfling race and other low-level things and below before letting every additional information submerge back into the murky-white water.

Subsequently, he willed his mind and soul again, but he focused on the word \'Tutorial\' and \'Creator\', this time.

Again...

*Bang*

With a banging sound, some small streams of light came into Jeremy\'s mind all of a sudden with no different than the preceding process a moment ago.

While sweating bullets virtually, Jeremy hurriedly discarded every far-fetched information out of his mind.

Heck, there was even researches about the creator of the Universe coming along with the light stream...

As Jeremy had done quite an amount of research on that topic, the sheer amount of the information was quite enormous, making him almost lose consciousness this instant.

If it were only the basic information, Jeremy would not behave like this at all.

However, within that enormous amount of information contained such mysterious, ancient, high-rank of runes, rituals, formulas, diagrams, arrays, spells, and more.

That\'s why his current mind power couldn\'t even afford them more than a few seconds.

He even felt like his virtual world, aka sea of consciousness, was spinning crazily, causing him to get nauseous incessantly.

Be that as it may, Jeremy still had to persevere or else put down his resolve at this point, letting himself become a vegetable once and for all and putting an end to his \'epic\' biography here.

Nevertheless, those bad things would never happen to Jeremy soon anyway, as he had already finished filtering that information and knowledge about the tutorials and creator.

As he had thought earlier that this topic was important, indeed...

It was important, even more, important than the halfling\'s ones.

At this moment, Jeremy\'s virtual eyes widened in shock...

For he to finally realize who the \'Creator\' of these so-called \'Tutorials\' was...
