Chapter 1040: Monster (3400 Supplement)

Far from the Never-Night City.

A motorcade had long since stopped, setting up camp on the spot to await the outcome of the war.

"Young Miss, please rest assured, the Life Bank will definitely defeat the enemy!"

Under a parasol in the desert, a group of servants prepared afternoon tea for Evangeline.

Even in the resource-scarce, hot, and dry Death Desert, the Messiah Family remained very particular about their decorum.

Therefore, although Evangeline wore a lady's dress, she did not feel hot at all, because the family's servants had directly created a spring nearby, the snacks on the table were mostly chilled, and there was even ice cream cake.

Evangeline ate very little; a maid beside her, thinking the young lady was worried about the army attacking the Never-Night City, offered a word of comfort.

On the land, a thatched cottage had also been built, and there seemed to be a human figure inside.

"I object. If we are looking for power that transcends the Immortal... doesn't it also exist within the Gaia Network and the Cyber Group?"

After the thirteen princes had all recorded their data and information states.

It was so massive that the giant Sky-Patrol Motherships seemed like ants in comparison, crashing into it one after another and turning into sparks.

"Seven votes in favor, three against, three abstentions; the proposal is passed!"

Life Bank, the deepest part of the vault.

The group of Immortal princes and the Duke who was observing all lost the ability to speak.

What does losing billions represent?

It represents that the Life Bank's financial report for this year will be very ugly, and it might even drop directly from profit to loss!

For them, the genetic data and information states they carry on their bodies are the true keys!

Countless groundwater surged out, forming a lake!

In the lake, the wreckage of the Sky-Patrol Motherships was also mixed in.

Prince Messiah muttered: "How can you guarantee that He will fully obey us instead of seeking revenge?... After all, in some respects, we are the culprits who sealed Him!"

Then, the dividends for the major shareholders will inevitably decrease or even disappear entirely.

"The company's satellites and motherships... we have lost at least billions of years' worth of assets in this single blow!"

Another prince shook his head.

After a long while, the prince of the Judas Family gasped for breath, his eyes bloodshot.

"You have no idea of the severity of the situation!"

The weird thing was that the Never-Night City, which was closest to the impact, seemed to have suffered no damage at all, as if those were not wooden walls, but an indestructible fortress!

The remaining twelve princes all felt a chill.

Then, the thirteen princes began to vote.

It could be seen that outside the Never-Night City, a giant crater larger than the city itself had emerged!

Then...

A prince raised an objection.

Prince Thomas said impatiently: "Do not talk about these meaningless things; I suggest we open a vote!"

Board of Directors.

The huge meteorite landed on the ground, kicking up terrifying sandstorms and earthquakes!

The terrifying shockwave subsequently struck the camp, causing everyone in the motorcade to be thrown into disarray.

Then, a clear high-altitude map appeared before her eyes.

The prince of the Messiah Family glared at Prince Judas: "The Immortal Count of the Sotos Family... there has only ever been one, and that is the Immortal from the primordial era, the founder of Occultism, the great scientist—Lord Aaron Sotos!"

Then what would he use to support his tens of thousands of sons?

And his other countless descendants?

'No, I did not...'

"Can an Artificial Intelligence give birth to another Artificial Intelligence? No... Gaia's birth was full of coincidences... the rank of the Mysterious is also difficult to cross... this newborn consciousness, could it actually leave the Gaia Network company helpless?"

Evangeline thought of something and frantically logged into the Gaia Network.

City of Life.

"Who doesn't know that your Messiah Family possesses a Mysterious heritage... compared to that true Immortal, we are nothing but worms stealing the name of the Immortal!"

A prince sighed and pressed his finger onto the desk in front of him.

"Comet impact? Meteorite?"

The atmosphere ruptured, and a huge meteorite appeared!

One gate after another opened, revealing a patch of lush green land inside.

He also held many shares in the Gaia Network and was considered a director of the other party; although his power was not as great as the Life Bank's, he knew many top-secret intelligence reports.

Prince Messiah looked solemn and nodded slightly.

Could it be... that they have to watch them die of old age?

For the thirteen families of the Life Bank, a bank loss means that people in the family will die!

"This is a being whose deeds are buried in history, yet he is even greater than Countess Liliyat!"

"Even the entire Never-Night City area was originally the other party's territory... from a legal standpoint, the other party absolutely has the power to kill any enemy on their own turf!"

A look of doubt appeared on Prince Messiah's face: "This does not look like something produced by accident..."

"What... happened?"

"The Cyber Group has been overwhelmed by the machine crisis... as for the Gaia Network, I just received a top-secret message: their trump card, that high-level consciousness—Gaia! For some reason, another powerful Artificial Intelligence was born from within its body, and the two are frantically fighting for control of the Gaia Network... The Gaia company is currently helping Gaia with all its might and will not be distracted anymore!"

They knew who Prince Doma was talking about!

Ordinarily, one could only use a bit of Occultism Ritual to forcibly brand someone else's aura onto an account at the time of opening, utilizing the high status of this existence to realize the technology of digitizing lifespans!

"That existence..."

After a long while, a sand dune collapsed, and several guards struggled out from within, gazing toward the direction of the Never-Night City with faces full of astonishment.

At this moment, the prince of the Doma family spoke: "However... the problem lies there, and it needs to be solved... I suggest we open the seal together and invite that Excellency to take action!"

That is the greatest Secret of the Life Bank, hidden in the deepest part of the vault; only when the princes of the thirteen families gather the thirteen keys can it truly be brought into the world.

Evangeline muttered a complaint in her heart, then suddenly sensed something and gazed toward the direction of the Never-Night City.

"There was no other way at the time; rapid advancement had already caused Him to accumulate too many madness traits, leaving Him on the verge of complete madness or death..." Prince Bartholomew said: "We sealed Him; in reality, we were saving Him... and currently, His state should be much better..."

A clear river wound around the thatched cottage, forming a circle.

And at this moment, a floodgate emerged, and this circle of the stream was suddenly severed!

This river was not simple; it represented the 'Seal' manifested in the sense of Occultism!

The breaking of the river represented the shattering of this seal!
