Chapter 109 109: Kings Of Old And Kings Of New! Iv

The scene was one of pure horror.

Lana brought her hand to her lips as she wanted to scream, watching as a worm pierced into the body of the Ethereal Physiology Master who was there to save them.

“GAAAH!”

His screams were scorching to hear as they were the last embers of hope being extinguished in the hearts of many.

The scream cut out in three seconds.

The body of the Ethereal Physiology Master trembled and shook thereafter, waves of tremendous energy building up as above him, multiple more bronze illusory stars began to light up.

His body seemed much more ethereal and terrifying as multicolored worms now coursed through his Meridians!

This Infected Ethereal Physiology Master then looked around coldly, its gaze causing the descent of an utter nightmare as many began to feel a sense of helplessness.

The walls of the Colony Bunker that were there to protect them…felt like walls of a prison that would ensure they were entombed in this place.

CRACK!

Around Lana, her ice barriers cracked one after another as around her, dozens of Infected Humans were about to reach her!

In this state of despair.

In this hopeless situation, what could even be done?!

At such a time.

HOONG!

Above the highest layer of the Colony Bunker, the reinforced ceiling opened as the rays of the sun that crossed a distant transparent barrier in the skies landed and showed the bloody sight inside the Bunker.

There, amidst the opening ceiling of the bunker, a Lunarian Enforcer Warship floated grandly.

Its doors were already open as from it, three figures shot out- arriving with the rays of golden sun as they seemed like a glimmer of hope in a truly perilous time!

From them, a unique aura that the Leucochloridium Worms all around recognized caused them to look up coldly.

An aura of Ancient Ones.

Auras of Primordial Energy!

Momentarily, all the Leucochloridium Worms stopped and looked up.

And there, in the skies, the ashen figure of Luna looking at the horror and destruction could be seen.

The stunningly gorgeous Rose, whose eyes shook at the scenes below, could be seen!

And in between them.

A young man in a silver and purple Lunarian Enforcer Armament that covered him head to toe.

By all means, he should be unremarkable.

And yet at this moment, the Leucochloridium Worms found themselves locked onto him who was not releasing any waves of Primordial Energy- while the two women beside him released waves of heavy Primordial Energy and Evolutius Energy!

The Infected Ethereal Physiology Master, surrounded by layers of earth and now holding 9 illusory stars, looked towards Achilles coldly.

An eerie silence descended as the two sides looked at each other.

Down below, Lana, covered in ice, barely opened her eyes to see the distant figure of Achilles.

“Ah…”

As he floated in the skies, he looked so distinctly different from the young man who had to drop out because his parents died.

He looked…like someone else entirely.

Someone who looked at the terrifying still scenes before as, once more, the few hundred thousand Humans and Advanced Humans wondered…were these the ones who would be able to save them?!

—

In the skies above the Colony Bunker.

Achilles made his descent as even before the ceiling of the Bunker opened, his Ecological Empathy III already sensed the scenes within.

The Leucochloridium Worms he knew from his scattered memories!

When he saw tens of thousands of Humans already affected, he could only close his eyes briefly in silence as he knew what this meant.

He made his descent with Rose and Luna as his eyes locked onto the floating Infected Ethereal Physiology Master, his voice echoing out as it was picked up on the video feed that Luna had on her.

“When Leucochloridium Worms infect any Lifeform, they irreversibly bind to their very Life Lines. To the Meridians. To their very being. The consciousness is eaten up as the Infected lose everything about themselves in a matter of seconds.”

…!

His words were heavy as they caused Rose and Luna to pale.

Because down below, there were tens of thousands of humans and Advanced Humans affected!

Infected!

Did that mean…

As if they could understand, the Leucochloridium Worms within the bodies of many humans down below screeched towards Achilles as….

BZZZT!

Their bodies stopped glowing.

They sensed a threat they could not understand above as their bodies stopped displaying any signs of infection, and they began rushing into the crowds of thousands of unaffected humans as chaos ensued once more!

The Leucochloridium Worms were smart creatures.

They now started to use chaos and other humans as shields while ever so briefly, one Human that did not show any sign of infection would stab out to an uninfected human and change their state!

In such an ensuing chaos, how could it even be handled?

Luna already had burning Moons rotating around her, but she was ashen as she couldn’t release them into the mixture of Infected and Uninfected Humans!

She couldn’t even tell which was which!

Rose was in the same state as this left…Achilles.

Achilles who had a difficult expression because he knew the times would come when he had to face truly terrifying Ancient Ones, he just did not expect it to be so soon after obtaining the scattered memories.

The Ancient Ones this time was the Leucochloridium Worm.

Even before his arrival, it had infected and doomed tens of thousands.

His few seconds of hesitation at what had to be done here to prevent an even larger catastrophe was leading to even more humans becoming infected!

What had to be done…was truly heavy as it meant killing tens of thousands of Infected Humans.

He knew from the Scattered Memories that they were gone without a doubt.

Irreversibly.

He knew!

“…”

DUM!

He felt the beat of his heart.

Beside him, he felt his left hand grasped tightly as Rose hugged it while looking at him with tears in her eyes.

The tears were angry and defiant ones, with her gaze telling him a few things.

They told him it was okay. That no matter what had to be done, she would be there beside him no matter what!

Seeing her gaze, Achilles closed his eyes before opening them fiercely, his gaze going towards the many floors of the Colony Bunker below him with stampedes of chaos as from his back…

SAA!

Purple and gold wings spread out gloriously.

His figure…became resplendent.

And in such a state, Dragon’s Haki was activated fully, his expression fierce as he bellowed out!

“Nobody move!”

HUUM!

Two words.

And yet, in the surroundings, a formless pressure descended and pressed down on every single lifeform across the Colony Bunker!

The stampeding humans stopped in place.

The Infected Humans were halted in place!

Even the Infected Ethereal Physiology Master surrounded by earthen walls with 9 illusory stars…was frozen in place!

…!

Only one man, shining gloriously with a purple wing and a golden wing behind his back floated down, lightning beginning to gather around him as he closed his eyes.

He sensed all the Infected Humans all around with Ecological Empathy III.

He felt the Primordial Energy coursing through them.

And then…he made the heaviest choice in his life so far as knowing the irreversibility of a terrifying infection, he struck out.

Like an ancient being born from lightning- tendrils of tens of thousands of bolts of purple lightning erupted from him, a cacophony of chirps and booming sounds erupting out!

The scene was captured on video feed and the eyes of many.

Of a man who halted the movements of hundreds of thousands with two words and who then gushed out tens of thousands of tendrils of purple lightning all around.

For him, it was the usage of Lightning Physiology IV.

For others, it was something unfathomably more profound.

The figure of Luna looked towards Achilles as his words alone commanded others to not move, and the purple and gold wings that he revealed for the first time…made him look eerily similar to rare entities who were exceptional even in Ancient Times.

Her Inheritance of the Daughter of the Moon showed her glimpses.

Of Kings who ruled over vast regions of the Ancient World.

Of Kings whose words alone caused others to feel stifled.

She thought of the Kings of the Ancient Times when she looked at Achilles as at this moment, she felt like she was witnessing the birth of a new King others did not even know about!

She had already paid her King’s Respect to him and he had accepted it.

Even if he said he was no King.

Sometimes…those who did not think they were deserving to be kings, were the ones most worthy of the throne.

At this moment, there were absolutely no doubts in Luna’s heart as she repeated his name in her heart.

Achilles Maxwell.

The Gravitational Anomaly.

The Primal Ancient.

Sir Primal!

‘King…Primal!’

Such words rang out in the mind of a single woman.

A Daughter of the Moon.

She would be the first.

The first as in the near future, many more would declare this name too!
