Chapter 1233: Chapter 631: Actions of the Eternal Abyss (2)
"But you should know, I will sweep across this universe once again, and it might very well be the last time. Submitting to me is your only path."
Forcefully breaking through the universeâs suppression, even for him now, requires a certain cost, and with it comes risk.
But from that life form, he felt an unprecedented threat, and he must take the risk.
"I understand." Tanwus responded with utmost respect.
The next moment, he only felt a vast power descending upon him, his whole body felt as if it suffered a heavy blow, the scenes in his vision turned bizarre, and he gradually lost consciousness.
It wasnât until much later that the area calmed down, and a faint murmur could vaguely be heard.
"...the evolution speed is too slow... why is it still so slow..."
...
"Still canât connect..."
In the virtual meeting room, the three leaders were staring at the central "virtual screen" that showed no signal.
"Morris made too big a move, disrupting normal communication," Malcolm said helplessly.
Gutierrez slapped the armrest fiercely, causing the virtual projection to waver, and said in a deep voice, "This Morris is too arrogant and doesnât regard us at all."
"Once he obtains the Diglasâs Crown, it will be another unmanageable disaster."
Two more X Level life forms died, and the civilization that cultivated them will certainly not rest, and he doesnât know how much time and effort it will take to settle it.
"We also need to prepare for countermeasures against him." Malcolm added.
Adamâs expression flickered, yet he seemed completely unconcerned, "Itâs not yet the time when Morris cannot be managed. Besides... Diglasâs Crown may not necessarily fall into his hands."
"Would he willingly give it up?" Malcolm asked suspiciously.
"He has no choice." Adam said indifferently, "The decision is in the hands of the Alchemy Baron. Can you guess... who he is?"
"Hmm?" Gutierrez expressed dissatisfaction, "At such a moment, youâre still keeping us in suspense."
Adam finally said, "I have basically figured it out. He is Levinbeck."
"Levinbeck?"
Malcolm and Gutierrez appeared somewhat confused, unfamiliar with the name.
Adam added a sentence, "He is the student who was killed by the Forging Hammer himself."
"Oh, itâs him..." Malcolm realized, while Gutierrez couldnât help but say, "The one who caused the interstellar massacre? He actually survived?"
"No wonder he knows Azure Dragon is the Forging Hammer. Heâs looking for revenge," Malcolm murmured.
The three of them had already guessed that the Holy Mother, the Prophet, and the Alchemy Baron were the ones who cut off the arm of the Dominatorâs body before them.
After all, the traces of their cutting of the Dominatorâs body were too familiar.
But both sides tacitly agreed not to bring this matter to the open, and the Three Great Civilizations even allowed them to completely dissect the Dominatorâs body for research purposes.
"Morris is just a puppet." Adam continued, "And I have already promised Levinbeck that he will have dominion over the Diglasâs Crown."
"Ha, youâre ruthless." Gutierrez couldnât help grinning, "When theyâre not in a fusion state, Morris is nothing. Once there is a gap between these two, it will be easy for us to intervene."
"Itâs best if we get Morris under our control, even supporting him in a struggle against Levinbeck."
"Indeed..." Adam nodded lightly, dealing with people like Morris and Levinbeck was almost a breeze for them.
Gutierrez was in a great mood, "Azure Dragon probably didnât expect us to still have such a killer move hidden."
"I bet his face must look really good now."
Malcolm smiled. Killing Istanbul, stirring interstellar suspicion, overlording Azure Dragon with the Holy Castle affair, they could reclaim some face.
"Beep--"
The three were talking when the signal successfully reconnected, and appearing on the screen was Costateâs pale and unsightly large face.
"Holy Emperor, two of you..." he managed to greet them.
His condition wasnât good, and the three noticed it immediately.
"Did the aftermath affect you?" Gutierrez frowned and said sternly, "What exactly is happening with Morris, a Mimic Life Form should just be a trivial task for him."
Malcolm couldnât help but become a bit anxious, "Whatâs the casualty situation, how many people died?"
Adamâs expression remained indifferent, the death of his subordinates wouldnât easily affect his position.
Costateâs expression changed, and he replied helplessly, "Only Morris died."
"Only one died, then still..." Gutierrez instinctively responded, but halfway through the sentence, his expression froze, his cheeks twitching and spasming.
The virtual projection also blurred.
"Morris!?"
Malcolm suddenly stood up, his expression changing drastically, those few words fell into his ears like thunder.
Adamâs pupils contracted, his reaction seemed the smallest, but the virtual projection had disappeared.
"Youâre... not mistaken, right?" Malcolm sat down in a daze, asking with difficulty.
Just moments ago, he was imagining Azure Dragonâs shocked expression, but now he himself couldnât stay calm.
"What exactly happened!" Gutierrez roared sternly, "He... but heâs an Ultimate Life Form, an Ultimate Life Form, how could he die!"
Although they were planning to balance Morris and sow discord, facing the news of death was hard to accept for him.
Because the underlying significance is simply too great.
Adam had already reconnected, his face extremely gloomy, the earlier discussion felt like each slap landed on his face.
Costate knew this would be the result, so he kept the story as brief as possible:
"The Holy Castle unleashed an attack that was of the Ultimate Life Formâs level, shattering Morrisâs fusion state, killing him on the spot."
"The Holy Castle?"
The three were stunned, and then a glimmer of hope emerged, "Itâs not Azure Dragon?
"Itâs basically confirmed. Itâs an attack from the Holy Castle," Costate responded again.
The three felt a bit relieved in their hearts, fortunately, it wasnât Azure Dragon.
They even thought, moments ago, that Azure Dragon had become an Ultimate Life Form.
Gutierrez yet was puzzled, "The Holy Castle could emit such a level of attack? Then how come the Holy Castle we obtained before didnât exhibit anything like that, even after practically dissecting the Observer, there was no reaction?"
"I donât know." Costate naturally couldnât explain, "Maybe itâs because this Holy Castle is rather special, after the attack, the Holy Castle widely disbanded, leaving almost only the core area, probably unable to launch a second strike."
"What a pity..." Malcolmâs expression softened a lot. With Morris dead, and Azure Dragon using a one-time means, it also tested out a trump card.
"Whatâs the damage?" Gutierrez asked again.
Costate responded, "Azure Dragon has already disappeared with the Holy Castle, and that small piece of limb also fell into Azure Dragonâs hands."
"Azure Dragon now also has the Dominatorâs body..." Gutierrez said angrily, "with his research ability, he might even be able to produce the Ultimate Gene Seed faster than us."
"Biology and mechanical study are completely different paths, it wonât be that quick." Adam shook his head, "Thereâs no need to hurry."
He knew more, the X Level Genetic Seed, still needed Sheffieldâs help to develop, that half arm falling into Li Mingâs hands would be a waste.
This statement did not provide any comfort to Gutierrez, it made him even more angry, "Not in a hurry?"
"For this Holy Castle, we invested so many resources, you know yourself, and now itâs all gone down the drain!"
Adam said sternly, "If I had the capability, I would be the first to attack Azure Dragon, but unfortunately, I do not, nor will I bark ineffectually here..."
Gutierrez looked coldly, this guy spoke easily, not understanding the kind of pressure he was under.
"Actually, the situation hasnât changed much." Malcolm couldnât help but speak, "In the short term, Azure Dragon still canât get the Diglasâs Crown."
