Chapter 458: Two Conditions (4000+ Added)

Mitra Palace.

Arthur IX and Jupiter III, who witnessed this scene through various channels, wore different expressions.

"Praise be to the Lord God's Child!"

A look of extreme joy appeared on Jupiter III's face: "Even I did not know that the Lord God's Child was so powerful! I can feel that every one of those 'Immortals' is Him; this represents eight pathways, all things in existence... everything will return to the sun! Is that not so?"

"Indeed, that is so."

Arthur IX responded with a smile, though he confirmed two things in his heart.

The first thing is that the 'Son of Dawn' has always hidden this ability, even the Pope was unaware, like a child carefully preparing a prank!

The second thing is that the plan has encountered a major complication; the 'Son of Dawn' is suspected of possessing eight lives, and to kill Him completely, one must kill Him eight times in a row!

In this case, is there really any need to proceed with the plan?

'No, this kind of "Law" must have a limit, otherwise why wouldn't the "Son of Dawn" create hundreds or thousands of "Himself"? Seven "Immortal" clones should be the limit, and perhaps there is also a quantity limit for the Sixth Primordial Substance?'

The wardrobe automatically split to both sides, revealing a set of sleek, jet-black Colonized Armor inside, from which a beast-like, ferocious aura emanated.

Although this kind of "Subordinate Creation Authority" has limitations, the "Son of Dawn" already possesses seven clones, which means one must kill Him eight times in succession to completely annihilate Him!

Sophia knew that Arthur IX was wavering.

'But I am more inclined to believe that the Spirituality of those resurrected ones is maintained by the "Law of Creation"; once the "Son of Dawn" falls and the "Law of Creation" loses its effect... these resurrected ones will immediately be knocked down a level, lose all their Spirituality, and turn back into ordinary people or even Spirit Bodies? Of course... ordinary people can still advance through normal means; this fake resurrection is also quite remarkable.'

'Manufacturing clones of the same level, with a maximum of seven? And there are no requirements for lower-level primordial substances? The Spirituality of those three Sixth Primordial Substance holders seems to have appeared out of thin air? Similar to Void Creation? The "Life Scientist's" resurrection of souls also has requirements; the more familiar one is with the target, the more detailed and accurate the restoration...'

'Hmm, in the previous battle where "Dawn" confronted the "Mother of Night," this also seemed to be reflected. He defeated and controlled those three Epochal Lords, and then did not directly devour them, but instead controlled the other party, transforming them into His own "clones," avoiding the 【Scarlet Creator】 resurrecting within Him to the greatest extent, while also being able to merge at critical moments to restore peak combat power at the level of a "half-Creator"?'

And at this moment, Princess Sophia quietly slipped into the palace where the 'Son of Dawn' was located.

'Although my heritage also describes that a "Life Scientist" can create souls... but I did not know that the "Son of Dawn" had actually awakened a "Law" approaching creation!'

A painful howl, unlike that of a human, suddenly erupted from the princess's room!

After thinking these things through, Aaron's expression remained grave.

'Combined, can they ignore the question of where the Spirituality comes from to a certain extent? Is this the effect of the "Law of Creation"? Even if it can only create primordial substances one level lower, it is too heaven-defying, right? But "Law" inherently has the power to distort rules...'

Sophia came to her wardrobe, swept away all the gorgeous gowns, and pressed a certain mechanism.

"You are the 【Feathered Serpent】?!"

Aaron stroked his chin, silently pondering: 'That's not right either. If "Dawn" could manufacture seven other Epochal Lords, wouldn't He have been invincible long ago? Therefore... does the "Son of Dawn" manufacturing clones of the same primordial substance level as Himself require prerequisites? For example—capturing and controlling seven "Immortal"-level Mythical Creatures in the Spirit World as raw materials, transforming them into clones with the "Law," and then injecting His own replicated soul through the "Life Scientist"?'

Wakefield let out a laugh, seemingly numbed by the stimulation, and then regained a bit of sanity: "Your schemes... are destined to fail... no... you cannot support such a massive conspiracy at all... you are merely a participant and a consumable... that is all..."

She walked out of the palace as if in a trance, then suddenly began to retch, and was helped away by the nannies.

Queen's District, top of the Twin Clock Tower.

"You... who exactly are you?"

This was something Arthur IX had previously agreed upon with her; after the 'Son of Dawn' left, she had to enter the palace to confirm the state of her sister, Christina!

Unsurprisingly, Princess Sophia saw her sister's scarred corpse on a cross.

After all, it is reasonable for a younger sister to act on her own out of concern for her older sister, and seeing that kind of scene, it is quite normal to be stimulated to the point of retching.

However, it can exert power and speed comparable to the 'Scarlet' Sixth Primordial Substance at its peak.

Jupiter III discovered this scene but did not pay it any mind.

Sophia took off her dress, leaned against the Colonized Armor, and let the jet-black spikes on it pierce into her snow-white skin.

"No, actually I am the protagonist... but it is just not time for me to appear yet."

A nanny lowered her voice and said: "The tulips in the garden are still brilliant..."

She closed her eyes, and the miserable state of Christina appeared before her again.

He struggled intensely in his heart, and the scales gradually tilted.

Aaron shook his head in rebuttal and answered earnestly: "If I am to take action, first I must have the 'Son of Dawn' violate the Contract, and second, the 'Keeper of Secrets' must join the battle; I won't do it if even one prerequisite is missing!"

Princess Sophia returned to her room, rinsed her mouth with clear water, and the expression on her face gradually turned resolute.

The various traces of abuse on it made Princess Sophia's eyes turn slightly red.

'With these two combined, it's about the same as true Creation Authority, right?'

This was the secret code agreed upon by Arthur IX and Princess Sophia, representing that the plan was postponed!

Wakefield squeezed out a long-buried doubt from his throat.

"Aaron Sotos!"

This is the latest generation of Colonized Armor secretly developed by the Imperial Royal Research Institute—【Imperial Dragon Type: Primordial】; it cannot be implanted into the human body, and wearing it for more than three minutes will inevitably lead to contamination, and five minutes will inevitably lead to death!

It can be said to be a crude semi-finished product.

"Your Highness, His Majesty has brought a new decree..."

Aaron also saw the scene of the eight 'Sons of Dawn' suppressing everything.

Arthur IX gripped the Scepter in his hand tightly.

"I only know one thing—the arrow is on the bowstring, it must be fired!"

This was content included in the heritage, and Aaron was no stranger to the abilities of a 'Life Scientist'.

"Ha... haha..."

Aaron smiled slightly: "Of course... I also have a codename where you are—【Feathered Serpent】!"

Wakefield suddenly felt a strong sense of irony!

His superior had forcibly ended his case in order to investigate the 【Feathered Serpent】, not knowing that what his case pointed to was exactly the 【Feathered Serpent】 himself!

'No... if the 【Feathered Serpent】 has ties to the Imperial family, then...'

Wakefield felt a sudden chill in his heart, as if he had seen a corner of the curtain of some massive conspiracy.
