BXBX NOVEL Chapter 1157 Disaster Strikes
Location- Southern Region, Blossom district, Sky Blossom City, St. Raymond\'s Cemetery
All of us have been in the company of atleast one annoying couple who would say, \'He/she didn\'t say it but I heard him/her.\' You feel like running them over with your car rather than agreeing that you want what they have. Until today, the day I would be a part of something like that, I thought they were just making that stuff up. Honestly, with my trust issues, I am surprised that today I too would get to experience something like that.
Having a mutated soul with multiple consciousnesses has made it easier for me to process multiple thoughts at a time which meant I could engage in multiple activities at a time. So while facing Anna and her grandmother I was busy with other things too. Such as monitoring my surroundings using my soul pupils. The presence of the second group of power that did not belong to the southern royal family had me very concerned. Especially with Jill\'s timely warning.
Now I feel I should have pressed Jill for information regarding her warning and not left it at that in order not to make things difficult for her. Not that knowing who this second group of demigods belonged to would help my situation but it would have been good to know who I am up against.
Sometimes information by itself was stronger than a fist. Quite frankly the old me would not have hesitated to manipulate Jill\'s feelings for me and try to monetize them. I don\'t know if this was a bad thing but since I had no plans of reciprocating Jill\'s feelings for me, for now, I think it was for the best. However, the old me would be disgusted with my current self for not using everything available. Since the priorities of my second life were different I don\'t think I should care what the old me would have done.
The demigod who accompanied the demigod who enquired about mama Wyatt, and the female semi-demigod, was very suspicious. Because I could see that his soul pathway and arrangements were very active compared to others as if he was using a card. At first, I just made a note of it and did not think much of it because I was not sure what kind of card he was using and believed that Anna\'s grandma and the demigod that followed her should be aware of it. As demigods, even if they are not array masters or card masters their heightened senses should be aware of what\'s happening in their surroundings.
Since they did not seem to mind him using a card I decided to leave it at that and concentrate on the female semi-demigod next to him, she seemed to have a physique that directly connected her to the World, her right eye in particular. I prioritized exploring the girl\'s physique over the suspicious activities of the demigod accompanying her and it proved to be a huge mistake on my part a few minutes later when his active soul pathways and arrangement suddenly bloat up with a refined and pure form of energy that I had seen the semi-demigods use, divinity, as he suddenly vanished from my sight.
It was at this moment I thanked Demigod Michel Angelo Godson for his Insight foresight skill and not just for unintentionally giving me an opportunity to learn the secret behind blessings. Thanks to this skill combined with my soul pupils and Hive Al, I could tell that he did not disappear but was rushing toward me. Seconds could not be used as a standard unit to measure his speed, even milliseconds seemed to be barely passable. My current cultivation barely allows my mind to keep up with such speed despite using all the skills in my arsenal let alone letting my body react in response to such speed.
I thought this was the end. But Anna, who was right next to me, suddenly jumped right in front of me. She seemed to have somehow heard the peril I was feeling. After the fight in the motel, I am dumbfounded to find Anna to be the one to share an emotional connection with me that transcended words.
But hearing Ann yell, "Grandma, watch out." I wondered whether it was Ann, Anna\'s origin card, that warned her of the threat. And the imminent danger to my life was making me see things that weren\'t there in the first place.
In the end, it all came down to whether I trusted Anna enough to fool myself into thinking the connection between us transcends words. Because, according to me, that was what love was, fooling ourselves into believing something that has no way of proving its fickle existence. At the same time an image of old me appeared in my mind, puffing a cigar and saying, \'Kiddo, it is good to know you are not beyond saving.\'
\'Who am I kidding, I am still the same,\' I thought to myself as my bloodshot eyes watched Anna disappear with the hostile demigod, yelling, "Unparalleled Arena."
"What is the meaning of this?" Colleen shouted while her baleful aura bombarded confused Agent Lois and General Baylor as she prepared to rip their divinity out.
Before Agent Lois and General Baylor could answer, they heard Agent Uri\'s voice from behind them, "One down three to go."
Agent Lois and General Baylor wanted to question Agent Uri but they paused seeing that there were two Agent Uri. Using this opportunity Uri said, "Priority Code Alpha, I am leading this mission now. Agent Lois, take care of the southern emperor\'s twin. General Baylor, kidnap the boy, while I hold off Soldier queen and Southern Emperor\'s ex, we only have 10 minutes before field marshal Heatsend intervenes. So now or never people."
Without waiting for Agent Lois and General Baylor to answer, the two Agent Uris rushed towards Soldier Queen and demigod Backster. The reason he asked general Baylor to kidnap the boy instead of killing him was that he was warned that if general Baylor knew the true goal of their mission, he would not hesitate to turn against them. Besides, once they bring the boy to the rendezvous point it would not be too late for him to kill him. Right now his only priority was to make it to the hideout within the 15-minute time limit. Taking the margin of error and time required for them to make it to the hideout into account, 10 minutes was what they could use out of the 15 minutes.
