Chapter 935 Another Test Subject.
Sauron did not come tonight for a blessing. He came to talk to Ragnarok about the issue of transcendence. He finds his chief Shaman to be very talented, intelligent, and full of ideas. Maybe Ragnarok can give him advice about what to do.
As for Ragnarok. He avoided the earnest and expectant look that Sauron was giving him. Even he doesn't know how he will pull it off. He can't leave the plane to seek a better situation in the ancient battlefield.
If he is right, then the Lumen plane has been surrounded and barricaded by a demon God. If that is so, then there's no going in or out of the plane. Even if that were possible, no clone of Legion would come here because of the presence of a demon god. This plane is trouble. There is no use sacrificing the whole to save the one. So he is alone.
Then there is the surveillance of the wood elves. His only guess about how to avoid the wood elves right now is the Underdark. If he can overcome the terrifying danger in the Underdark, maybe he will be able to hide from the constant gaze on him and the supervision of the wood elves.
But he doesn't know what the danger in the Underdark is yet, so he doesn't have an inkling how to overcome it. The only other option is to wait for a moment that the wood elves are preoccupied with the demon God and take advantage of that to hide.
"What do you think I should do?" Sauron asked him.
"Your only option is to come to a sort of agreement with the tree people. Everyone wants something. You just have to find out what they want and they might give you what you want in exchange for it." He replied.
He doesn't have any good ideas. But that doesn't mean that he can't give bad ideas to Sauron. Even if he has good ideas, he will keep them to himself. There's no way he will give up the opportunity to use Sauron for an experiment on how to avoid the wood elves.
"That's a good idea." Sauron brightened when he heard the advice. Then his face fell when he thought about it. "But that will need me to leave my pack and the mountain range."
The tree people don't come in contact with the Warrogs unless the Warrogs have done something wrong. The tree people will then come to deliver punishment. So if Sauron wants to meet them, he either has to do something wrong or leave the mountain range to meet them. He can't take his pack with him if he leaves the mountain range. At least not the entirety of it.
He can take his warriors at most but the bulk of his population and his strength are the nameless. Someone else can take over the population he leaves behind and cut off most of his strength. That will leave him weakened and vulnerable. That is not a good state to be in right now considering that he has a lot of enemies.
That is the problem or disadvantage of the path of Alphas. They are bound to their people so they cannot leave them. Only Omegas can move around unrestrained and unweakened. Alphas have been shackled by their source of power.
Sauron was contemplating his situation when he noticed something abnormal. He sensed that an evil entity had entered his territory. It is a powerful entity too. His gaze locked onto the direction he felt the threat. It is at the entrance of a valley between two mountains. It is the previous location of the now-destroyed Sharp Tooth pack.
"I have to go now." He said to Ragnarok before he flew into the air. n.)o(.v((e-/l.(B)(I--n
"What's the matter?" Ragnarok asked in confusion.
"Someone is attacking the park," Sauron replied with a cold gaze and an even colder voice as he sped off.
Ragnarok watched Sauron fly off. Then the look of confusion on his face turned into a frown. He had noticed the strange entity before Sauron did. It was a combination of his intuition and his strong perception. The entity is a threat to him. That's why his intuition picked up the danger way before his divine sense did.
What's more, is that he sensed something evil and familiar from the entity. What he sensed made him frown.
"This can't be good." He muttered.
He looked up at the sky. It is currently night time and the plane is darker than usual. There is a blood-red moon glowing proudly in the sky. There is a demonic influence permeating the plane from the blood-red moon. This influence is also coming from the direction of the strange entity that has encroached on the territory of the Iron Fur pack.
Ragnarok's mind began to work on overdrive to figure out the situation. What he came up with was not good. The situation is not promising at all.
"I'll know what it is when I see who it is." He said.
Then he took to the sky and flew in the direction of the upcoming conflict. He soon reached the valley. He stopped on top of a mountain beside it and watched the events transpiring below.
Sauron is in front of the wall blocking the valley. He is in the air looking down on the intruder. As for the intruder, he or she is cloaked in a black robe. Only their eyes are visible. The eyes that they revealed are red. They shine brightly under the darkness of the hood.
Ragnarok's eyes narrowed when he saw the intruder. He exclaimed, "A true nightwalker. It is a goddamned true nightwalker. This explains a lot."
He looked up at the moon again. Then he shook his head and said. "I am so screwed."
What he sensed earlier was the aura of blood and death associated with vampires. But he was wrong. The intruder is not some ordinary vampire. It is a true vampire or what others call an ancestral vampire or a true nightwalker. It is the immortal origin of vampires. It is a primogenitor that can only be created by the demon God of Carnage.
