The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 899 Dark Sky and the Depravita Race (II)

”So I was right.” Cain smiled as he uttered those words. What he had shown to the Humanoid of Dark Sky was not any person. He took out the mutated Blood God, the ”key” that the Depravita priests were in the process of creating in that underwater city beneath the Atrox Immortus Empire.

As he saw the smile on Cain, the Humanoid of Dark Sky knew that the young human had perceived his flash of shock, and the killing intent burst in his heart. That information was something that no one could learn and that they had worked very hard to conceal.

He was ready to command all the alien monsters to lunge toward the young man and kill him, but Cain did not wait and immediately left the Dark Fog.

Pure rage appeared in the Humanoid of Dark Sky as he glanced at Cain outside the Dark Fog but did not lose focus. He turned toward the Speed Humanoid and Strength Humanoid, who lowered their heads and headed toward him before leaving with the group of over thirty Humanoids.

Cain could feel the rage in the Humanoids of Dark Sky and was sure they would try to retaliate for his ploy, but that could not sour his mood. The Humanoid of Dark Skyʼs reaction confirmed his suspicions that the Depravitas and Dark Sky were connected.

After understanding that, a plan began to form in Cainʼs mind, one that would not only allow them to make proactive moves but maybe win the war.

As the minute points of the plan were starting to arrange themselves in Cainʼs mind, his eyes narrowed as he saw the march of the Insect Armyʼs drones coming toward the Dark Fogʼs battlefield. Their numbers were over three times larger than usual, but Cain did not show any concern, as those drones had long ago become nothing more than food in his eyes.

It would be easy for Cain to tackle the horde of drones until it returned to normal levels, but he chose not to, seeing the thrill and fighting spirit that burned in the hearts of the Light and Dark camp soldiers. After that fight and the death of a Humanoid of Dark Sky, they wanted nothing more than to fight, so why stop them?

”Kill!”

It was just one word, but its effect on the warriors was more than powerful enough as they all turned toward the hordes of drones from the Insect Army, eager to fight and kill.

Cain nodded before turning to Zero Mint, the Collapsing Lightning Emperor, and Angar Aegon. ”Follow me.”

The trio did not say a word and just nodded as they followed Cain through the portal built in the sky, which led them into the Infinite Horizon.

”Excellent job. Your performance was perfect and will greatly improve the coalition between the camps in the future, something that we must express in the upcoming clash if we want to win this war,” Cain praised the trioʼs work.

The trio clasped their hands and performed a solemn bow. The battleʼs first part was just a disguise as they were used to fighting together. They had done it for several years. After all, the one that went by the name of Zero Mint was actually the First Collapsing Lightning Pillar.

Cainʼs Collapsing Space-Time Eye glowed as he analyzed the trioʼs condition. He could see that they were severely wounded, especially Angar and Zero Mint. Unlike the Collapsing Lightning Emperor, the duo did not have access to a Pseudo-Immortal Body.

ʼThe damage is not only limited to their flesh and blood, as they also overdraw their life force.ʼ A sharp light appeared in Cainʼs eyes as he saw how much of their life force the trio had burned in the fight against the three Humanoids of Dark Sky.

Although the Rebirth Marks allowed them to burn their life force without permanent repercussions and would slowly regenerate it, it would be several weeks, if not months, before they regained all they had consumed. Entering the Dark Fog before fully fixing their life force would be dangerous and could lead to severe consequences.

”Since you three are not in a condition to fight for the next month, you will march through the Bridge of Hope and make arrangements to bring the Anima Mechanicus Race and Legio Eldritch Race to the Dark Fog battlefield.” Instead of leaving them resting in Infinite Horizon without doing anything, Cain gave the trio a new task.

Zero, the Collapsing Lightning Emperor, and Angar were a little surprised by the mission, and their eyes immediately turned to the massive portal beneath them.

Cain did not waste time, and once he returned to Infinite Horizon with the forces of the Deus Behemoth Empire, he immediately went into action, activating the portal of the Bridge of Hope that connected toward Oceanus and Typhon, the home continents of the Legio Eldritch Race and Anima Machinarium Race.

Since it was the second time the Scarlet King activated the portal, it was much easier and faster, but that was not the only reason. The portion of the Endless Ocean that connected Infinite Horizon to those continents was much more tempered and calm, making the disturbance in space considerably weaker.

Although that came as a surprise for Cain, he had an idea for that change, so immediately after activating the portal, he went through it. He appeared above the Endless Ocean, but it was not a mistake.

Unlike Atlas and Gaia, which were connected by landmass, or Kronos and Hyperion, which were divided by a small and narrow sea, Oceanus and Typhon were millions of kilometers apart.

Each of these continents resembled an island, completely surrounded by water, but they were still close enough not to need Intercontinental Teleportation Formation to go from one to the other. A Wave King would need around two months of flying at full speed to go from Oceanus to Typhon.

Cain first moved through Typhon, the home continent of the Anima Machinarium Race.
