Chapter 937 Backfired

Chapter 937 Backfired

Michael had a few plans up his sleeve, but he followed the simplest path by using Mind Watcher to read the half-dead Divine Dragys' memories. He used Greater Enhancement and Soul Tears on Mind Watcher to read as much of the Divine Awakened's memories as possible until he managed to kill himself.

Michael sensed the ignition of the Divine Dragys' Energy Pillar too late. Despite being drained and sucked dry, the Energy Pillar was still a construct of compressed energy. Once dissolved, an enormous amount of energy was unleashed. That would have been problematic if he hadn't actively using Mind Watcher.

In the first place, Mind Watcher allowed Michael to read the Divine Dragys' thoughts and perceive his intentions early enough to see what was happening through Seer and True Vision. That didn't give him much time, but a second was enough to do something very simple.

The corner of Michael's lip curled upward, and he used Cosmic Stride while sensing the spatial restricted zones of the Dragys Lordess' settlements via the Nature Heart and the voices of the Untamed Jungle's plant life. The main settlement of the Dragys Lordess was sealed perfectly, but there was a small hole in the defenses near the frontlines with the Divine Alliances. Michael guessed that the hole in the defenses was left behind by an attack by the Divine Alliances' forces. It could have been something different, but it didn't matter.

Important was only the hole, and it hadn't been fixed.

"Consider this a present, little reptile," Michael snickered as he appeared on the outskirts of a massive Dragys settlement. He grasped the half-dead Divine Dragys with one claw, used Greater Enhancement more than a dozen times on the Divine Dragys' Energy Pillar, and flexed his muscles while hurling the dying Dragonkin to the settlement's center.

He was tired of all the responsibility. Who said that he wanted all of this? Taking care of his territory and subjects was already difficult enough, even without a fight. Yet people like the Blaze Patriarch, organizations like the Supreme Human Alliance, and races like the Dragys continued bothering him.

The Blaze Patriarch had been removed, and a treaty ensured peace in the Sacred Desert and its surrounding regions. Until other Lords and powerful creatures didn't attack Michael's business partners, everything would be fine. However, the Untamed Jungle was a problem and would probably stay forever.

[Don't worry; we will ensure you grow strong enough to fight Demi-Gods, Minor Gods, Sacred Beasts, God Beasts, and so forth in no time. With our help, you will acquire the power of four Authorities. As long as you keep growing, you will become the vessel of four Divinities. And as long as you don't...shatter...] Jormungandr said calmly.

Unfortunately, Michael didn't feel calm. On the contrary, the authorities of God Curses and the influx of information and feelings heavily impact Michael's mind and soul. He wasn't about to break, but Michael surely felt like he was about to collapse. This had to end.

He took a deep breath and emptied his mind. Under normal circumstances, that would have been difficult, but Mind Watcher helped him a lot. Greater Enhancement and Soul Tears used on the 7-Star Soultrait were enough to drain his mind from the most overbearing thoughts. "That feels good. Too many voices, emotions, and thoughts in one head and soul are too much to deal with sometimes..." He mumbled to himself while watching the chaos and destruction his action had caused.

The Dragys might have killed himself, but Michael was certain he never expected to eradicate an entire settlement full of Dragys with his suicide.

The Dragys settlement was no longer there, and the frontlines with the Divine Alliances changed drastically. It might have been a simple act from Michael, but it changed the entire war to the Divine Alliances. The members of the Divine Alliances gained a lot. Their morale had been at an all-time low. However, now that the situation changed and a powerful enemy attacked the Dragys Lordess, their morale skyrocketed again.

The Divine Alliances' members charged the frontlines and reclaimed pieces of land that used to be theirs. Little did they know that everything was already in Michael's possession. Whether it was the Dragys Lordess or the Divine Alliances. Everything they presumed to be their property belonged to none other than the real Lord of the Untamed Jungle.
