Chapter 1913: Chapter 1908: Each Finds Their Light
Truly crisp and clean.
In the literal blink of an eye, as the last wisp of ash fell to the ground, Professor Ah Kai hadnāt even finished his "spell."
The second layer of the ark, which already gave an otherworldly feeling, became even more serene.
A glance revealed no trace of a Feather and Fish.
Having spent long years here, they ultimately never saw the day to disembark.
Of course, the perception could still be felt.
Although somewhat suppressed, Fu Qian could still sense, not far ahead, beneath the feathers, a Feather and Fish had just made a small move, then remained there.
As mentioned earlier, it might no longer be human; even its aggression was exaggerated, but it still had survival instincts.
"Is it done?"
Despite his ruthless actions, Lord Stoss did not seem intent on total annihilation.
With no further attacks from him, he did not follow through with burning everything, and instead, watched Ah Kai as he stood again.
The peculiar candle flame in his hand was now slowly extinguishing.
"Itās done."
After quietly sensing for a few seconds, Ah Kai also nodded, indicating the work was complete.
"It canāt be completely eradicated, but the special protection will make my flesh and will as stable as the stars, extending this process."
Words alone werenāt enough, so in the next moment, he even displayed his palm.
Compared to before, a cool radiance appeared to envelop it.
Encapsulating the whole person within it and even faintly flickering, it indeed resembled the night sky full of stars; the sight was wondrous.
"Then I just tried, and Iām quite sure that the brightening speed has slowed down."
Seeing that Lord Stoss still said nothing, Ah Kai hurriedly continued explaining.
...
"Very well, letās proceed."
Eventually, it seemed Lord Stoss was convinced, and he signaled everyone to keep moving.
"Was that newly born one you encountered down below?"
His thought process seemed clear and direct.
Although it was the fallen Prison Angel Commanderās place, the old man still didnāt intend to linger long; he glanced at Su Gao, preparing to directly find "Marco."
"Yes, further down, it was still alive when we left."
With a seamless response, Demigod Suās reliability was impeccable.
"Then letās check that special one first, I rely on you to lead the way."
Sure enough, in the next moment, without further ado, Lord Stoss signaled Su Gao to lead, having everyone else follow.
...
"I also feel the light changing."
Even so, as the group descended the rough wooden staircase they once traversed, Aike provided a sobering update, indicating that he, too, exhibited the same symptoms as Ah Kai.
"Not yet for me."
Facing Old Master Stossās glance, Fu Qian truthfully reported his condition.
Regardless of which piece of news, they obviously supported previous speculations.
"Me neither."
Even another supporter.
Without waiting for questions, Su Gao also straightforwardly reported his situation.
"... Me too. It seems regardless, acting with utmost efficiency is a wise choice."
At this, Lord Stoss slightly pondered, finally revealing his status as well.
The rule that lower rankings are more susceptible once again withstood the test.
Thus, Professor Fuās theory was finally widely accepted.
"That was the only mother entity we discovered at the time."
In the exchange, the group kept moving, and soon Su Gao pointed ahead.
"... There still seem to be many unborn."
The field of wheat formed by ropes and amber was undoubtedly impactful, especially with the scale of some of the humanoid forms within the amber.
Inspecting them, Aike could not help but frown slightly in critique.
"Almost purely dead, but itās curious why this was done."
Lord Stoss casually remarked, indicating thereās no need for extra concern, and in the next moment, he stepped forward to examine the special corpse Su Gao indicated.
More conspicuous, and more unsettling to behold.
But nonetheless, the somewhat empty abdominal cavity indeed suggested something had once emerged from it.
"Letās find that living one first."
Refraining from concluding anything prematurely or conducting additional tests, Lord Stoss turned to the paused group, urging them to continue ahead.
"Third room on the right."
Without a need for reminder, Su Gao, once again leading the way, quickly located the position, indicating the corner.
"Let me."
Leading by example, Lord Stoss was the first to step forward; pushing the door open, he ventured into the dim space.
"My vision is also brightening."
Even as he spoke the next moment, it didnāt seem so dim.
Lord Stoss stood still as others followed, casually reporting his condition.
Evidently, even this Divine Envoy couldnāt remain immune to the effect.
"Me too, just changed."
Before others could comment, Su Gao shared the same news as he followed in.
...
Amidst continuous developments, no one initially voiced opinions.
In place of that, multiple gazes landed on Fu Qian.
"Same here."
Advisor Fu certainly understood the implication; he gave a slight smile, acquiescing without resistance.
Yet this answer...
At least from Lord Aikeās expression, it seemed there was skepticism toward this somewhat vague response.
That wasnāt surprising even a bit.
Fu Qian keenly understood that Demigod Aike didnāt doubt his vision had brightened or that it was just "recently."
The thoughtful look implied suspicion that the change had occurred much earlier.
So considerate.
Although Su Gao didnāt speak much, his crisis sense was as keen as his own "Echo" capability.
In response to such reactions, Fu Qian was internally moved by another thought.
Even though heād been truthful, had he spoken before Su Gao, his words would have seemed more questionable.
The speed of being affected might unconsciously be compared to that of Old Master Stoss.
But with Demigod Su interjecting, Fu Qianās ranking would not easily invite suspicion.
It only appeared as a prideful exaggeration, purposely claiming the time was later.
"So weād best hurry upātry calming it and see if communication is possible."
It seemed the Night Watchmen werenāt overly concerned with the Advisorās moral concerns; the next moment, Stoss gestured toward Aike.
In the corner ahead, a silhouette appeared, resembling a soft-bodied creature with feathers, targeting them with a distinctly hostile posture.
Surprisingly, "Marco" had indeed stayed in here.
