Chapter 417: Omniversal Immersive Bed
Miles walked to Adam, who was laying on the bed, sedated by one of the most powerful medicines in Unity. When Mercer realized Adam was possessed, he sent a wisp of his energy to isolate Adam in a bubble, although Adam was a masterful hunter himself, the person who had possessed him didnt have his experiences, and thus had no idea what Mercer was capable of. When they confronted, Mercer took the opportunity to knock Adam cold, later Evelyn used the medicine to shut down her brothers mental facilities, lest the person possessing his body try to harm Adam.
This was highly beneficial to Miles, as now, his opponent was a fish on a chopping board. It was knocked out cold and had no chance to battle. And Miles also wanted to test something, thus when he reached out to Adams forehead, he flared his second ultimate, Afterlife. As he did so, he grinned brightly. Luckily, he was facing Adam and the others couldnt see his face.
How is this even possible? Coin asked in disbelief when he read Miles's thoughts.
'What is there to be surprised about? Miles asked in a good mood, Whoever possessed Uncle Adam used an energy technique similar to Afterlife. I use the technique to trap others minds in my Ultimate, and Samuel and whoever possessed Uncle Adam to use it to possess the body and isolate the main consciousness in the body. So in a sense, there is a mind trapped in Uncle Adams body. I dont know how Val and he lost their bodies to extra consciousnesses but now that Uncle Adam, therefore the person who possessed him, is unconscious, the body started to connect with the main mind once again. After all, energy in the body is compatible with Uncle Adams Mind energy. Thus, the extra consciousness in its inanimate state got isolated. It is an unintentional security protocol.
And now, I, thanks to Afterlife, can suck out that extra consciousness from this body and trap it in my ultimate. It is actually easier than Johns case because I dont even need to kill him this time. Miles smirked. He only thought in passing when he learned what had happened, but now that he tested, he realized it was indeed possible for him to suck out the extra mind trapped in Adams body.
Miles locked onto the isolated consciousness and sucked it out with his own energy. It was a lot like fishing with a net. His mind limb, like a string, surrounded the isolated energy construct and slowly introduced it to the Afterlife. And as he did so, Miless eyes started to flutter as memories started to fill his brain.
Samaour, Samuel, you have been summoned by His Holiness. He is expecting you in his chamber. A boisterous voice reverberated in a courtyard.
I hear and obey. A young man rose from where he was sitting and kneeled towards the palace. Following him, a middle-aged man also kneeled. Then, both rose from the ground and walked together toward the palace. The earth on their way to the palace was blue in color, giving the surrounding an exotic flavor. The ping grass and orange and blue trees around the palace were also filling the canvas seamlessly in a strange harmony.
It has been several decades, and I still cant help but get mesmerized by it. The middle-aged man thought to himself, as he looked around. The blue sun in the yellow sky and different fauna were nothing like his home planet, but he found bizarre beauty in this setting. Nothing like Earth, but our new planet is richer in air and better than Earth.
Do you perhaps know him? The figure asked in curiosity.
I do, Your Holiness. Samaour answered honestly, Before we departed, he was a leading scientist working on plant-type monsters.
I see, it is better than. The figure didnt mind and continued, I want you to sneak into his laboratory and hack into his personal computer. I gave him a device years ago in hopes of tricking him, but so far, I still cant get any response. There are a few things I need to know and there are only a few networks I cant hack into.
Yes, Your Holiness! Samaour slapped his chest.
In case you fail to hack into the computer, ask around and find details about his nephew. His last name should be Cross.
Cross, You Holiness? Samaour asked in shock.
Yes, Samaour, a Cross. The figure said as he looked deep into their eyes, I want you to put away your pettiness in this mission, both of you. I want only the results.
As you command! The duo answered at the same time.
Good. When you go through the portal, strap into OIB #2 and #17, and I will do the rest.
The duo took their orders and walked through the portal. On the other side, there were two pyramids standing side by side. The duo walked into one of those, and inside the lab, they saw lines and lines of Omniversal Immersive Beds. They walked to the bed with numbers 2 and 17 and layed down on top of them. As they did so, energy washed over their bodies. And soon, the duo felt as if their consciousness were flushed down a vortex. When they opened their eyes, the vision in front of them was wholly different.
