His nine golden orbs are nowhere to be seen while his conspicuous eyes are hidden by the white mask. Beyond all of these measures is the mirage of space that he created to mask his position. He won't be visible ideally but whoever is capable of seeing through the camouflage he set up will only see a black-robed person. No one will suspect his identity.
He stood calmly at the top of the mountain as the icy wind raged violently. Thunder and lightning from the dark clouds ravaged his surroundings. The top of the mountain he is on is currently experiencing a heavy thunderstorm. But none of it affected him. He was unmoved and still like a statue. The world seemed separated from him. He is a lone pillar of stability in this storm.
He would not be noticed by someone close to him even if they look at him directly. He is like a phantom. His eyes pierced through the world to bring his vision to the main city of the Ghastorix main family.
His vision went past the clouds, past the barrier of the outer city, and past the barrier that separates the forest from the inner city. He saw everything while standing tens of thousands of kilometers away. Nothing could hinder his gaze and nothing could hide before him.
He saw the Origin gods enter and leave the city. He also saw when Hadrick entered the black cube. He knows what's happening and what's going to happen. His eyes gazed longingly at the black cube in Guntu's hands.
He sighed and said, "Weakness is a sin."
He knows what's happening and he also knows how valuable Hadrick is. He would like to have Hadrick to himself but he can't because he is weak. He can't fight a single origin god yet and there are 10 of them. He would have ambushed them and attacked them if he could get away with it.
It would have been possible if he still had his boost from the title of the child of the plane. But that would mean he won't be able to keep his actions and identity secret. Everyone will know what he is up to once he draws upon the call of support. So his situation will still be the same had the sage not crossed him. n0VelusB.c0m
That's the problem with temporary power that doesn't belong to him. He can lose it anytime. The title of the child of the plane was bestowed to him and it was taken away. But Legion is already working to fix it.
Legion is doing some experiments and is building an artifact of great power and they need a plant that can transform energy to use for the experiments. They can use Legion-9 but that's the same as cooking your own hand to determine what the flesh of your race tastes like. You can do it and your hand will heal after being cut off but it will be very painful.
Legion can handle pain but this experiment is very dangerous. The artifact they are building is at a grade that is at least a world fragment. Legion is messing with very strong laws of the universe that creates backlash due to failed experiments. Legion-9 could die and he could die permanently if care is not taken.
It is not a risk they are willing to take lightly. They want to avoid the risk altogether if possible. That's where Hadrick comes in. They can use Hadrick for the experiment. That means Legion wants to get their hands on Hadrick but their weakness is holding them back from doing that and achieving what they want.
He then grinned to himself. "Half bread is better than none."
The strength of an Origin god is not nearly enough to kidnap Hadrick. He will think twice about it if he could fight Origin gods and kill them. Hadrick has always been connected to people in high places. There are a lot of Origin gods that will rally to aid their Ancestor in times of need. Legion can't handle that many immortal enemies currently.
That is besides the fact that ancestor Ghastorix is in the process of becoming a world god. To target Hadrick is to offend a world god in the making. So Legion is very wary to target Hadrick themselves. But that doesn't mean they can't take advantage of the situation. If they can't have Hadrick to themselves, then they will just have to make do with something else.
Soverick continued to watch patiently. He saw the Origin gods leave the city. He saw more Origin gods gather around each other with Guntu in the midst of them. About 100 Origin gods are going to escort him and his precious cargo to the void.
Everything was going well for the Ghastorixs. The mission was proceeding smoothly. Then he saw Guntu stiffen suddenly. Guntu paused. The team of Origin gods around him also stopped. They all had surprised and uncertain looks on their face.
Soverick grinned. "It must have started." He muttered.
He was right about that. That is of course because he knew to expect it. The 900 origin gods of the Ghastorix family in the void were attacked by a thousand enemy Origin gods. It was sudden and it was unexpected. It caused Guntu to become wary while it caused Soverick to smile.
The attack could be related to what the Ghastorix family is currently transporting or it could be by chance. The Origin gods of the Ghastorix family don't know. But they sent the update to Guntu to inform him of the development. He can't join them in the void right now. So he is to stay in the plane and wait for further updates.
Soverick raised his head into the sky. He can't see past the barrier around the realm and into the void but he knows what he would see if his eyesight could reach that far. The 900 origin gods of the Ghastorix family are facing opposition in battle. They are doing well even though they are outnumbered. They are fighting back and they are winning. The fight will take a while but they will win at the end of the day. They are a ferocious bunch. Unfortunately, it won't be enough.
