The Almighty Ring

“Seems there’s no data about Androids from Planet Namek… Theoretically speaking, how strong could these Androids created by humans be?” Jiang Fei asked. Even though the military had developed strong Androids, he wanted to know just how much were they based on earthly technology.

“Theoretically speaking, the perfect Android would need a type of alloy called the CTE700, a perfect Artifical Soul, and adequate power source. If all of the conditions were met, a perfect Level 5 Android would be created. Furthermore, CTE700 can be combined with Valium to create an indestructible Android.”

“Can the military make such an Android?” Jiang Fei asked.

“Impossible,” 0541 replied instantly.

“Do you mean, improbable?” Jiang Fei asked.

“No. Impossible. First of all, Valium does not exist on Earth. No matter how Earthlings tried, they could never develop an Android of such power. The metal that was part of alloy CTE700 cannot be found on Earth. Hence, it is impossible to create CTE700 alloy. There is no way humans can create a Level 5 Android. Even if they managed to create an Android with Level 5 attack power, they could never have Level 5 defense.”

Jiang Fei went silent for a while. It was a relief to know that humans could not create such an abomination.

“Didn’t you say something about an awakening for me to reach Level 5? How is it that an Android can reach Level 5 so easily?” Jiang Fei asked.

“A Level 5 Android is the same as a Level 5 Bio-Human. Both of them were forced fed with power. They are merely elevated to reach the power level of a Level 5 but not the true potential of a Level 5. Even if they could do what a Level 5 Metahuman could, a real fight against a Level 5 Metahuman could be devastating. Even so, they would have a superior advantage against anyone that is beneath them. They are not a real Level 5 but a fake one. Like Ariel, for example.”

“I see,” said Jiang Fei, nodded understandingly. Ariel’s host body, Phoenix, had once fought Feng Tianqi. However, the battle was not… eventful as Feng Tianqi did not have a Godblade with him. He was scared that if he had tried to use his full power against her, she might unleash hell to all of Soaring Cloud Sect. Moreover, Feng Tianqi was scared of Jiang Fei’s mysterious master, Zhuge Shanzhen. That was the only reason why he was holding back.

On the other hand, Ariel was the same as Phoenix; both of them had the potential of a Level 5 Metahuman but were not the real deal. Ariel and Phoenix had reached the point where nothing and no one could kill them without the use of a Godblade.

“Pfft… Level 5… When will it be my turn…” Jiang Fei scoffed disgruntledly. Up until now, even though he was only one step away from reaching Level 5, he could not understand what the rule to enable him to do so was! Awakening? Pfft…

By the time Jiang Fei finished his conversation with 0541, the sun was high in the sky, and all of the martial artists had rested enough. The battle last night was not as ferocious and wild; hence, they were only tired mostly from running.

“Brother Jiang Fei, what should we do now?” Bai Wanli asked, representing the rest of the fighters there.

“We wait,” said Jiang Fei, smiling nonchalantly.

“Wait?”

“That’s right. The second batch of reinforcement is on its way. Right now, and this is just a speculation, the Mutants are calling for their own reinforcements. So, the best thing we should do right now is to wait,” Jiang Fei said. With the fake Planet Namek alien artifact, Jiang Fei had managed to bait both the Mutants and the enemies within, the Androids, into Japan. Once the two forces reached Japan, it would be a meatgrinder where both sides would try to completely eradicate one another.

Jiang Fei had grown more and more mature after everything he had been through. Jiang Fei was not standing idly by. He was strategizing the next steps and the one after that. He predicted that the Mutants were receiving their reinforcement and he felt that he should do that same and wait for the arrival of the second batch of Androids.

Desir had led the surviving Mutants deep into the mountains of Japan. There, after a short resting period, he conducted a small, quiet funeral service for the fallen comrades. The Mutants that had died in the fight against the Androids were all weak Level 2 and some Level 3. Even so, those Mutants were somebody’s friend or even loved ones.

After mourning for his fellow Mutants, Desir had decided to call for help. At this point, Shenlong had retreated to China, allowing the 7th Fleet to return to Japan’s water and establishing communication with the Mutants. Desir’s call or help was received and was relayed to America and the high council of the Mutant Brotherhood. When the council had received the message, everyone was calm and composed, except for one man. Lincoln, the vice-president of the Mutant Brotherhood.

Lincoln was the father of Gid and Walker. Their death came as a shock, which made him incredibly angry.

“Do not stop me. You can do whatever you want with me. You can expel me or other bull crap, but I will avenge my sons!” Lincoln snapped and broke the table in front of him.

The other members of the high council did not even try to console the man. They knew it would be like trying to put out a forest fire with a cup of water. Lincoln had only two sons. One was killed during a small patrol mission, and the other was tortured to death in Japan.

“You have our support, Lincoln. We will not stop you. Know that we share your pain. All of us had watched him grow up. Their deaths will be avenged.”

“Go. Have your revenge. We will support you as well. Take Blood Baron and the others. They have just gotten out of the lab,” said the President of the Mutant Brotherhood, Xavier.

“Thank you, Mr. President. I will not be as useless as Desir! I will slaughter all the scums and paint the entire country red with their blood! I will claim that alien artifact!” Lincoln roared violently. Sparks of electricity crackled around Lincoln as he spoke. Due to his uncontrollable rage, the power inside his body went a tad bit berserk.

“Good. Get it done,” said Xavier.

Lincoln brought along a team of Mutants that had just received enhancements. They got on board ship to reach the 7th Fleet. Through them, they were brought into Japan.

Thirty Mutants were joining Lincoln. All of them were enhanced with the blood of the First Vampire’s gene. Every single one of them was at the Pinnacle stage of Level 4. With such power in hand, Lincoln was confident. To be honest, the man was burning with rage. Besides collecting the alien artifact, he was allowed to take his revenge; to kill any martial artists he wanted!
