Chapter 197: Vol2 Ch95: Attendant

? However, before that, I will need to resolve this issue ?Negary glanced towards Lan Shan briefly as he led his three subordinates into a secret base. His body started morphing into the Dragon of Eternal Sin form, enveloping this secret base within his [Dragon’s Pressure].

With a swing of his tail, he pulled a lever and released an incubator from its latch, which revealed a humanoid with the exact same appearance as Lan Shan lying inside, this was a viral body created by Negary, mixed with Lan Shan’s blood.

Not too long later, Lan Shan’s complexion became pale, her facial features appeared haggard, while the other ‘her’ opened her eyes. The eyes of the other ‘Lan Shan’ first appeared a bit blank, then as her body started producing Disasforce, her eyes quickly grew more life-like. However, compared to the real Lan Shan, this ‘Lan Shan’ appeared very ordinary even while she exuded Disasforce.

Soon after that, a ‘Negary’ with a blank expression also showed up in front of the Dragon of Eternal Sin, then led the other ‘Lan Shan’ out and away from this base.

Attendants, artificial souls created by Negary to remedy his lack of subordinates and personnel. Through the mass collection of human data and creation of personality models, Negary was able to modify other souls into these Attendants, or forge the Soul Essence he collected into them.

They didn’t really have any unique abilities nor creativity, with only two notable advantages: their obedience, and wide range of application.

Included within the personality models created this way was a certain level of common sense, as well as general knowledge equivalent to university students. They could learn any basic series of actions very quickly, thus capable of perfectly executing any of Negary’s mundane arrangements, essentially the best kind of fodder.

Negary created these two Attendants in order to migrate their Authorities, [Otherworld Invasion] and [Super Plague].

Although Negary’s control over the [Otherworld Invasion] Authority had been stripped, that didn’t mean the [Otherworld Invasion] Authority had actually detached itself from Negary.

On the contrary, since An Ping didn’t feel relieved about Negary, the [Otherworld Invasion] Authority was still tightly attached to Negary’s soul, which would serve as a means of restraining Negary when necessary.

Since the Authority was attached to the soul, whenever Negary transferred his soul around before, the Authority would also transfer with him, so there were a few extra steps required to escape from this attachment.

That’s why Negary had created an Attendant from his own soul in order to shift the Authority to it; he also did the same to Lan Shan, but since Lan Shan wasn’t Negary, having a piece of her soul cut off caused her to be incredibly weakened.

? Are you ready, Lan Shan? ?Negary’s gigantic dragon head turned to Lan Shan and asked her.

“There’s no issue, Lord Negary” Lan Shan nodded her little head and sincerely answered him.

? Then let’s begin ?Negary’s body started to morph again.

Standing behind them, Noah’s expression was full of respect as he had knelt down on his knees and prostrated to Negary.

Killer J, on the other hand, helplessly waved his hand: “I’m temporarily leaving the front stage again, but I’ll definitely be back”

Negary’s dragon tail moved, splitting into tentacles that attached themselves to the two of them, their bodies swiftly becoming withered as their light vanished from their eyes. Negary had reabsorbed their souls.

The Dragon of Eternal Sin form then seemed to melt into several black tentacles that started to wrap around Lan Shan’s small body.

...

On the outside, the battle still waged on, the army was cooperating with the Disaster Kings to eliminate the invaders, attempting to repel the invasion of the New Deity and Progenitor Dragon. If the Path of Error hadn’t lost its effect for a brief moment, this method might have actually worked.

But now, more and more native living beings were being converted into devils, the projections of the New Deity and Progenitor Dragon had gotten solid enough that they wouldn’t grow fainter no matter how they were attacked.

Seven swung her fist, unleashing her violent Disasforce to cause several devils to rupture and collapse into mucus. From the corner of her eyes, she saw Negary and Lan Shan standing not too far away, staring closely at her.

For some reason, Seven felt that this Negary seemed... off.

Feeling a swift moment of unease, Seven put some of her attention on guarding against this Negary; but surprisingly to her, he simply stood there smiling at her without doing anything.

As time went by, Seven’s feeling of uneasiness grew stronger and stronger, causing her to realize that this unease didn’t come from Negary, but rather somewhere else.

Very briefly, Seven recalled one of their first meetings, when Negary surrendered himself to the D.E.R division. At the time, he said:

...

? If there is ever a time when you feel helpless, feel free to come to me ?

...

Currently, Seven was still far from ‘feeling helpless’, but the invasion had reached a point where it could hardly be pushed back, coupled with the sense of growing uneasiness in her mind, caused her to make a decision that she would never do so otherwise. Erupting her Disasforce to dispel that wave of enemies, Seven landed near Negary.

“You aren’t Negary?” as Seven closely observed the Negary in front of her, she finally realized what was off about him, as this Negary didn’t have the unique presence that he exuded.

“I am now” Negary suddenly chuckled, his body relaxed slightly as his aura itself changed: “My apologies, I was busy with something earlier”

“I know what you’re wondering about” Negary smiled: “The only thing you’ve ever actually paid attention to was never this world, but rather Chang Xia”

“Unless I’m wrong, the so-called Disaster King of [Heaven Collapse] should be none other than him” Negary slowly spoke: “So, why hasn’t he appeared on the battlefield yet, even now?”

“What are you saying?” Seven’s expression changed slightly and asked in an urging voice.

“An Ping and Chang Xia are the same kind of people. What do you think the most common thing for people like them to do?” Negary gradually explained: “Other than sacrificing other people, that would be sacrificing themselves”

The figure of Chang Xia walking into the elevator flashed through Seven’s mind, the moment when he left to finish the ‘secret weapon’ that An Ping mentioned.

The fact that they still hadn’t appeared caused Seven to feel uneasy, so she immediately turned to leave.

Watching Seven leaving her post, ‘Negary’ lowered his head and smiled, an alluring smile of perfection.

Negary did not transfer his soul into this body, the actions he performed just now were nothing but recorded actions. Since this Attendant was created from the same soul, as long as his gestures and speech were no different from the original, he would still exude the same presence as the real Negary.

Seven originally had gaps in her mentality: her trauma of the Yue Bu earthquake, as well as Chang Xia as a person; since Chang Xia saved her and raised her from her childhood trauma in Yue Bu, she naturally harbored special affections towards him.

She was willing to leave her post at the D.E.R division to come to Chang Xia’s aid in the 7th domain – Yue Bu, and she was now similarly willing to ignore the threat of the world; becoming a hard-headed brat that would not allow Chang Xia to sacrifice himself no matter what.
