Chapter 2038 Major Discoveries!
But then Minos said to the one who asked about removing the essence of the dead robot and putting it into a new body. "It's not as easy as you think. When we removed the essence from one of the robots we killed on our journey, we attracted Black Lightning.
It completely wiped out the essence and the robot's body, so I'm afraid we can't do what you're suggesting just yet."
"Black Lightning?" Vico's eyes narrowed as he looked at Minos.
He had faced three Lightning Tribulations on his way to level 100. Still, none of them was the fearsome Black Lightning, and even now, Vico wasn't sure he could handle such a thing without getting hurt.
'If there were another God who could share the attack of this Tribulation with me, I would risk protecting such a thing. But for now, it's not worth it.' He thought to himself as some of the Demigods there took a step back for fear of being near such a thing.
"Are you serious?" The strongest dragon there asked, worried.
"Yes, I witnessed it when the Black Lightning struck the essence that Minos held in his hands." Nymmas, the dragon from Emperor Stuart's group, said, catching everyone's attention.
"Fortunately, the Black Lightning only tried to destroy the alien robot's essence. It didn't hurt any of us." The level 92 Sea Folk woman from Minos' group said, showing everyone that the Black Lightning had specifically targeted the parts of the alien being.
Vico made a thoughtful expression and said. "Hmm, that makes sense. They're invaders from our world and follow slightly different rules than we do. By exposing sensitive parts of themselves, they can attract the wrath of the world."
The strongest elf there agreed with Emperor Travisani's analysis. "That must be the case."
"But why don't they attract it just by being in the Spiritual World? It's not hard to see that they don't belong in our world." A Phoenix commented on this question that Minos' group had been trying to understand for months.
"That must be a flaw in our world." A member of the Sea Folk said. "Do you agree that it's much easier to see this essence as an invading body when it's outside of this metallic body? It's like feeling the fullness of a plate of food inside a box or accessible in the air. It's much easier to perceive what's free in the air."
Upon hearing this, the members of Minos' group looked at each other, while this man thought that this might indeed be the explanation they had been missing.
'That makes sense. And if you think about it, it would justify why these creatures could live in our world without attracting the Black Lightning. Not only that, but as long as they had a special room on this island, it would be possible to manipulate such an essence!' Minos clenched his fists.
What his group needed in order to understand better the enemy's technologies were beings with different affinities, experiences, and stronger individuals like this group that had just arrived.
With more and better minds than they'd had over the past few months, understanding the enemy would be much quicker and easier!
"If that's the case, there must be some structure in this enemy base that can manipulate these essences without risking us with Black Lightning," Vico commented as he looked more closely at the creature Minos had summoned.
Someone from Minos' group said. "There are many things here in this alien headquarters that we don't understand. If everyone in this place works to decipher the alien technologies, we can learn a lot about our enemies and how to strengthen ourselves."
Almost everyone there agreed until Julian opened his mouth while looking at Minos. "Where are the survivors of the enemy? You said you didn't kill them all, right?"
Julian didn't think about keeping the most important thing to himself and his group. Considering what Minos' group had just presented to everyone, the enemy was so terrible that they might all die in a very short time.
Considering how Vico was behaving, the problems of the Spiritual World must be deeper than they currently seem. So, there was no point in favoring one or the other, let alone trying to profit from the enemy's technology.
If Minos was with the survivors, then they should all have the chance to interrogate them for the common good.
Minos agreed and replied. "They are in this facility. We managed to kill most of the enemies, but we kept the three strongest alive so that we could interrogate them. Unfortunately, their mental strength is very high. Since we didn't have anyone with us who could interrogate them, we haven't gotten any answers from them yet."
"Where are they?" Vico asked.
"I'll take you to them," Minos said before taking the group's lead and leading them to the area of this alien unit where the three Demigods were.
...
Arriving where Iktun and his two companions were, the newcomers looked at the three beings strangely, seeing such ugly creatures for the first time.
The members of the Mechanic Empire looked like practically no one else in this vast world. The closest to them were the Sea People members, but even they found the appearance of these three strange.
When they entered the place where the three were being held and watched them as if they were animals, Minos' three hostages looked at Vico strangely.
Minos had sealed their cultivation, but the moment they looked at Vico, they realized the level of this man.
'Damn it! A God!' Iktun cursed his luck when he saw that someone from the Spiritual World had made a breakthrough at this critical moment.
'This is bad. With someone like that, they'll be able to interrogate us.' The commander of these two thought to himself, fearing that their enemies would use them to worsen the chances of their state.
Iktun didn't think that the Spiritual World would win the war for dominance because of Vico. But with a God on their side, the people of that world would have a much better chance of understanding alien technologies and also of resisting the Mechanic Empire.
That's what worried the alien commander!
"Hmm, they really are weak. I can feel that just by looking at them." The strongest sky whale there commented as he looked at Iktun.
"Their mental abilities are awe-inspiring." The strongest elf commented. "Their talent is also impressive. From that alone, I can guess that the number of high-level beings from where they came from is not small."
"Anyway, time to find out the truth about them." Vico appeared in their cell, already holding Iktun's neck, while his domain formed, making the aliens feel as if they were entering a new world, the world of this blond man.
"Aliens, answer my questions. How long do we have before your reinforcements reach us?"
