Chapter 971  Do more!

Michael's next course of action was simple. He didn't attack the Hyumans actively but observed the situation all over the Novix Galaxy as best as he could.

That wasn't easy since the Novix Galaxy was too big for an ordinary Divine Lifeform to observe in the finest details, but Michael witnessed more than enough interesting situations.

The first important point was that the reinforcement of the Altors Union had a high morale. They attacked the Supreme Human Alliance's settlements without hesitation and conquered their planets. In a matter of days, several planetary systems had changed owners. However, that was not only owed to the Altors Union's numerical advantage in the current situation but also to the Cosmos Beasts appearing when no one expected massive Leviathans to emerge from empty space.

The Hyumans struggled against the Altors Union but put up a great fight. However, as the Cosmos Beasts appeared, the situation changed altogether. The Cosmos Beasts wreaked havoc. They were mythical creatures with extraordinary advantages in space fights and overall combat prowess. The Cosmos Beasts might be massive creatures and thus easier to hit, but their defenses were strong, and you had to hit them in the first place. They had spatial attributed powers and excellent senses. Once an enemy stronger than them appeared, the Cosmos Beasts teleport out of the danger zone and wreak havoc elsewhere.

That was fine if only a few Cosmos Beasts attacked the Hyuman civilizations in the Novix Galaxy, but there were hundreds, if not thousands of Cosmos Beasts, each with the combat prowess of a Tier-5 High Awakened at the very least. Michael didn't have to intervene in most situations because the combined efforts of Cosmos Beasts and members of the Altors Union would have been enough to deal with the threats posed by some Hyumans, yet Michael assassinated them either way. He didn't hesitate to appear behind some Divine Lifeforms and unleash his power to obliterate the Divine Lifeforms before they could cause any harm.

Michael's primary targets were Divine Lifeforms and Higher Lifeforms with unique energy accumulated within them. From his experience over the last few years, Michael learned that Awakened with unique energies was more annoying than ordinary Awakened. In most cases, it indicated that the Awakened with unique energy had powerful Soultraits. Their Soultraits were strong enough to alter their energy system, which then augmented the powers of their Soultrait – or Soultraits – even more.

Michael's Galaxy of Elements was similar but didn't alter his energy system directly. Michael could choose which types of attributed energies he wanted to create and store them in the Galaxies of the different elements in his Energy Vortex. His Energy Vortex contained countless types of Elemental Galaxies, whose storages were brimming. One time, Michael appeared next to an old Divine Lifeform. His energy system was altered and transformed into what looked like a massive thunderstorm. The old Divine Lifeform hurled lightning bolts around, killing one of the younger Cosmos Beasts before it could escape. Michael was impressed by the speed and effectiveness of the Divine Lifeform's attacks, but he pierced his heart easily with several Qi Blades, an Aethyr Blade, and much more force than required.

Michael didn't hold back against the Divine Lifeforms. His assassinations were fast and precise. He usually unlocked his full physical prowess with Curse Fusion, Serpent Seals, Perfect Heavenly Beast Physique, Foundation Break, and Greater Enhancement. Sometimes, he considered doing more by mixing some Soultraits and unleashing Unlimited Enhancement on his Soultraits and more sealed Serpent Seals, but that wasn't needed here.

Most Divine Lifeforms in the Novix Galaxy were at the 7th Tier. The stronger Divine Lifeforms were either in different galaxies, fighting the Altors Union and other enemies on different frontlines. Leaving Tier-8 Divine Awakened behind in the Novix Galaxy would have been one of the stupidest things ever under normal circumstances. After all, the Texorian Meteorite Streams hadn't ceased to exist, nor did the Cosmos Beasts regain their freedom for a very long time.

Only now did their best defensive mechanisms fail the Hyumans…and they suffered tremendously from that.

[Don't you think it's time for you to upgrade another Soultrait?] Jormungandr asked less than two weeks after the Altors Union members and Cosmos Beasts attacked the Hyumans.

The World Serpent hadn't been that impatient before, but it sounded both annoyed and impatient now. That was a surprise to Michael, who could only smile faintly.

"I think you're expecting too much from me. I'm assassinating my enemies right now. There are no Hyuman Fortresses to crush and thousands of Awakened to suck dry." He chuckled lightly, but the World Serpent wasn't having it.

[If you could be a little more proactive, our bound Soultraits would already be 9-Stars, and we could start using our Divinities to form the Divinity Seeds of our Authorities within you!] Michael raised one eyebrow but remained silent.

[Look over there. At least eight hundred Hyumans are fighting a bunch of Cosmos Beasts and two Divine Awakened of the Altors Union. While the Altors Union is bound to kill them, the Hyumans aren't weak. They're faring well against the Cosmos Beasts and Divine Lifeforms. That indicates strong Soultraits, a great combo of Soultrait Symbols, and the potential of many SoulStar Fragments because more than half of them are probably still Lords!]

Michael would be staring at Jormungandr if the World Serpent stood before him. But the World Serpent was inside him and thus unavailable to judge with a glare. Still, Jormungandr had a point. Michael had been fighting in the shadows for a while now. He didn't deem it necessary to expose himself to the Supreme Human Alliance. But…what would happen if he was exposed? If he didn't expose his dozen+ Soultraits and the three God Curses, it should be fighting to fight more openly.

He could still assassinate the Divine Lifeforms and strongest Higher Lifeforms in secrecy while exposing himself openly differently.

Michael retrieved a black mask that looked like a crow and put it on. It had been a while since he collected a bunch of masks for different balls and other events he had visited with Alice over the last few years, but he never liked using them. Still, they would come in handy now. He wore black clothes covering his entire body and a mask shrouding his face. That was enough to hide his human ancestry from Altors Union members and the Supreme Human Alliance.

Michael used Cosmis Stride to teleport to the mass of eight hundred High Awakened – they were spread out far, but that mattered little and unleashed the fury of Emperor Qi.

Exposing two Soultraits simultaneously was still fine. It was rather easy to acquire a second Soultrait as a Divine Lifeform with great accomplishments. As long as one acquires enough Achievement Points, it would be easy to buy a new Soultrait. It was overly expensive and not something Michael would ever do, but most would either think Michael manifested two Soultraits as a Rookie Lord or that he purchased another Soultrait Symbol once he'd accumulated enough Achievement Points.

It was also possible for him to get exposed, but the likelihood was low as he didn't use Emperor Qi too often. He did unleash it sometimes, but most of the time, Emperor Qi was added to the Aethyr Blade or released inside the enemies to kill them in one go. Michael manifested a storm of Emperor Qi, forming thousands of spears made of Qi, and attacked the hundreds of High Awakened, who sensed his presence only now.

'They're nice snacks and easy SoulStar storages.' Michael nodded slowly.

[See. I told you!]
