Abyssal Lord Of The Magi World

Chapter 177 - Second Prince

Zatiel and the rest continue traveling through The Ocean of a Thousand Wonders and they noticed that the closer they got to the Wuxuan continent the calmer the natural energy became and the Eye of Life and Creation showed that the life forms were becoming weaker and weaker.

It seems that the powerhouses of the Scientia Kingdom have neutralized any threat that surrounded their continent. This fits with the overprotective nature that the ruler of the kingdom has over his people.

As they reached the kingdom the first thing that called their attention was the famous 'swimming islands'. These were islands that literally swam around the continent, sometimes submerging themselves underwater only to come out months or maybe years later to the surface.

Some of the islands were small but others were big enough to hold the entire capital of the Aeternum Empire on them.

When they finally reached the sky above the continent they were able to have a complete view of the kingdom.

Instead of how a normal organization works, the terrains were not divided and the entire kingdom was just one massive city that extended through all the continent.

There was no division regarding power and you could see Rank 4 and Rank 0 life form discussing all sorts of scientific problems.

The city was filled with ingenious machines, factories, and special laboratories where anyone could come in and work together with the rest.

The sense of unity in the people was superior to even the Daybreak Clan, despite being millions of them.

The city was not just buildings and machinery, the vegetation filled the kingdom and you could see all types of magical flora that had special properties.

Some trees took the impurities on the air and some natural energy to release an invisible gas that increased the vitality and energy pool of the people in the kingdom.

The kingdom is truly amazing and what draws the attention of everyone was the massive magic tower in its center.

It was fifty thousand meters tall and from it, a beam was fired into the sky that connected the peak of the tower all the way to the Crystal Wall.

When Zatiel saw the tower he was shocked. It was not its size or the fact that drew its energy from the elemental chaos in the void that amazed him.

It was the fact that his Eye of Life and Creation showed that the magic tower was a living being.

He was only able to analyze it for a few seconds because when his Eye of Life and Creation focus on it, the eye starts to feel like it was burning, just like the eyes of a normal person would when they look at the sun.

But it was enough to detect the immense amount of vitality that was running through it and the fact that it was incredibly old. Zatiel will not be surprised if this was the first magic tower in the Magi World and the rest were technological duplicates of it.

With this tower, even a Rank 6 life form could not threaten the kingdom or its citizens.

The group did not remain in the sky for too long and descended to a zone in the periphery of the continent where there are hundreds of white rooms without windows.

As they closed in, a Rank 3 Magus with a cordial smile approached them.

"Hello, my name is Sebastian. Please, state the purpose you have come to the Scientia Kingdom and whether or not you wish to enter it."

Heinz was at the lead of the group and even though he was stronger than the man he acted with prudence.

He could feel the dozen of Rank 5 life forms that were watching over this area and the Law of Space allowed him to detect an even more terrifying individual very close.

"I am Heinz, Prince of the Aeternum Empire. I and my group have come to the auction."

"In that case, you will need to take the Test of Threat. Is there anyone of you who is not familiar with it?" When Sebastian sees that everyone shook their head, he guides them to a room.

In the room, there was a white platform with a screen beside it.

The Test of Threat that the Magus spoke is something everyone who is an external individual to the kingdom has to take if they want to enter it.

If they try to enter the kingdom without taking the test, they will be discovered and killed in the act. There is a tale about a Rank 6 life form that once tried to infiltrate the kingdom, but his body was incinerated and his soul destroyed.

The test will analyze your power and determine how dangerous you are to the kingdom. They do this to decide how much security and surveillance must be applied to any individual since just focusing on their Rank was not accurate.

A Rank 4 life form could create all sorts of catastrophe by using their laws and if you don't have information about them, it was very hard to prevent it.

About the danger of your secrets being exposed. Never in history, did the kingdom or any of his people reveal any information obtained by the test and even Rank 6 life forms trusted the confidentiality of it.

"Please stand above the platform." Sebastian guided the group before moving to a corner of the room and waited for them to take the test.

Heinz was the first to go in, and the moment he stood on the platform a white aura covered his body and the cultivator could be felt that it permeated all the way to his consciousness.

The feeling of something analyzing you so thoroughly was not pleasant but luckily it just took a moment before it was over.

On the screen beside the platform appeared a message that says: Beta level of threat. Surveillance over target performed by a Peak Rank 5 Magus.

The cultivator was not impressed by the assessment. Even though he can not defeat a true Rank 5 life form, he could fight against one and their battle will create an immense level of destruction so they will need someone at Peak Rank 5 to make sure they could defeat him without collateral damage.

The next was Zitra, and just like with Heinz, the white aura analyzed her.

After her test, the screen displays: Delta level of threat. Surveillance over target performed by Rank 5 Magus.

After her, it was Totto's turn, and his result was the same as Zitra.

Sophia stod over the platform after the Rank 4 life form had finished with it. The white aura permeated all of her body and she felt it was able to analyze her bloodline, the changes on her marrow, and even the nature of her runic set but when it passed over the Chaotic-Core, it could not perceive it.

On her screen, the message was: Gamma level of threat. Surveillance over target performed by Rank 4 Magus.

The rest could see the message on her screen and Heinz, Zitra, and Totto were surprised. According to the test, the only way to safely neutralize the woman who was at the Peak Rank 2 was with a Rank 4 Magus.

Sophia was not surprised, after all, she was able to defeat a Master Rank 3 Angelic Paragon when she was at the Advanced level.

The last one to take the test was Zatiel. Just like with Sophia, the white aura was able to analyze everything about him except for the Chaotic Core.

His message was the same that appeared for Sophia, but when he was about to move out from the platform, this one turned blue and another message appeared on the screen.

'Detected Zatiel Daybreak. Please remain in the room and someone will come to meet you very soon.'

Everyone was surprised by the message on the screen and even Sebastian was not different but before they could understand what was happening the space in the room broke and from it, a man came out.

He had black hair and his feature were similar to most men in the kingdom but his aura was totally different and the power on him froze the natural energy in the room

The appearance of the man shocked the three Rank 4 life forms, and they glanced at each other before nodding.

Heinz, Totto, and Zitra were going to position themselves in front of Zatiel but before they could move the man raised his hand, and the moment he did, they halted.

The trio could still see and think but their bodies, energies were frozen. To do this type of feat, it was needed more than just battle power.

What the man did was use the almighty Law of Time.

"I am the Second Prince of the Scientia Kingdom, Gabriel Rebellion, and I have come under the orders of my Royal Father to meet Master Demonologist Zatiel Daybreak."
