Chapter 1272 Suspicion Of Possession.
??Funny enough, the Sovereigns were also shocked about the death of the great god of fire. They are not like transcendents who don't know what is needed to kill a god. They know what to do to kill a god but they can't kill a god so easily. They will have to go to the divine plane to do so which will lead to their death. But then a god came down to the plane alive and was killed in a few seconds of fighting. It shocked them to the core.
The way that the grand god died shocked them but what shocked them the most was that they thought that the gods would be most difficult to kill and therefore the last to kill. So if the gods are already dying, are they not next?
Another group of people that were shocked were the Supreme Beast protectors. A scout with the ability to see spirits and trace spiritual influence saw a sight that she had never seen before in her more than a million years of life. Her eyes mostly see the fragmented spirit of someone when they die. So no one can pretend to be dead to her.
The sensitivity of her eyes to spirits makes it so that she can also track traces of the manipulation of the divine sense. These traces are present everywhere in the world. They are like the air that powerful people exhale. She can track people through the scent of her soul. So the world looks as if blotched by swaths of various spiritual aura to her.
But then she saw millions of translucent tentacles reaching out from all over the plane to somewhere in the sky. She informed everyone of this strange sight immediately. She thought it was an enemy attack. It was after this that the grand god came to the plane.
She was sure then that it was a move by the gods to get rid of the most dangerous Supreme Beast because the grand god fell right in front of Legion-5's base. She thought that it couldn't be a coincidence. Then he fought Legion-5. They were prepared to intervene if the god tried to do anything suspicious to him.
They thought they needed to save Legion-5. Then the god died but the tentacles didn't disappear. Instead, the tentacles slipped into Legion-5 as he grabbed the core. Apparently, he was the source of the tentacles.
They waited for him to enter his base before they questioned him. The scout came into his base and stopped him before he entered the main building. She appeared in her true form which is just an eyeball. The white translucent crystal eyeball was staring at Legion-5 intently and inspecting his existence.
She said, "Agrivo839,371,456A, we have reasons to believe that you have been contaminated by an external spiritual influence. Do you feel any different?"
Legion-5 replied, "I don't feel any different. What kind of contamination?"
She was direct. She said, "Something like possession. We believe so because we have noticed a characteristic of your soul that has never appeared before."
She said that while watching his reaction. At this point, she and the rest are certain that he has been possessed. They don't know how, but they suspect the Shadow Lurker. Even though they can't confirm anything, this questioning is just following protocol before they apprehend him. Nothing he says will change that outcome. However, it will be best if he shows a suspicious reaction or tries to escape.
"You mean this?" Legion-5 said and made Legion-7 wave a tentacle at her.
Her single eyes glinted sharply as she resisted the urge to respond to the threat. She wanted to fight or run away at that moment but then she relaxed when she realized when she saw that he also produced his identity mark. If his identity mark hasn't disappeared, then he is undoubtedly still the same Agrivo839,371,456A.
As a super powerful conglomerate, the Supreme Alliance is aware of possession and they are prepared for it. Any Supreme beast that becomes possessed will lose their identity mark immediately. The Supreme Alliance will also be notified of that event.
If she can't trust the identity mark, that means she has a whole lot more to be afraid of. But if she trusts the identity mark, that means the spiritual tentacles she saw are under his control.
"So it is an ability of yours?" She asked again.
"Yes." He replied succinctly.
"Can you tell me how you acquired it?"
"Yes, I can." He replied.
They remained silent then. She urged him, "Go on. Tell me."
He told her, "I won't tell. I can but I won't."
She realized the problem so she said, "I apologize for asking you to release information about your divine ability but this is a serious matter. I urge you to reply and provide an adequate explanation for how you gained it or you will be subjected to investigative measures."
Legion-5 shrugged. "I am not a fool. I know whatever I tell you won't be enough. You are suspicious of me that means you will Directly support the authors on WebNovel!
still investigate me to confirm it no matter what I say. So why should I say anything? It is just a waste of time."
won't be enough. You are suspicious of me that means you will still investigate me to confirm it no matter what I say. So why That brought silence to her. She didn't expect this to be so difficult. Not from a young Supreme beast less than 200 years old. He has made good points. He doesn't know that she is not suspicious of him anymore. But he is right that if she were suspicious, questioning him wouldn't be enough for her.
Legion-5 was carefree. He knows that he is currently surrounded by 4 scouts which means this situation is very serious but that doesn't mean he will bend just because someone asked him to divulge his ability.
He already has an explanation for his divine ability but he won't give it up easily. He has to act stubborn because he should be stubborn when someone asks him about his abilities.
