But that was what the current head wanted. She wanted Erik; she wanted his ability to get multiple brain crystal powers, and as the servant he was, he obeyed.
However, Levium often wondered if it wasn't just better to go forward with Doran's research and forget about Erik.
But the allure of power was strong for everyone. Besides, why spent decades to achieve what Erik could give them in five minutes?
The problem was that Erik was powerful enough to bring ruin to their organization.
In truth, many considered Erik as such, but only the average people. There were fighters that were hidden, but that could rid the Mannard continent of humanity if just they wanted, but no one knew about them.
Of course, this wasn't the case in the past. What made such people this powerful was Doran's research.
Levium's gaze swept over the scene below. Amidst the sea of people, a lone figure caught his attention—a soldier waving his arms, trying to grab his attention. The commander's eyes narrowed, focusing on the man.
Levium channeled mana into his neural links, and using telekinesis, he made the man levitate. The soldier felt like an invisible force enveloped him, lifting him from the ground.
His feet left the earth, his body rising, guided by Levium's control, heading toward the commander. The soldier hovered directly before him in the sky, but close enough for them to talk.
"Report," Levium said.
The soldier swallowed hard. "Sir, sothing's wrong with so of our troops. They've gone mad. They're attacking each other!"
Levium's eyes narrowed behind his mask.
"It's a bloodbath down there, sir. Our soldiers, those from Khunelerp, Etrium, Hin... even our own blackguards. They're tearing into each other like animals. It's like they've lost all reason."
Levium was silent for a mont.
Erik had shown to be powerful, but sohow he still struggled to fight against thousands of people.
In truth, very few didn't. Of course, Erik was basically the only one known who could do this, but in truth, the blackguards had so who could do the sa.
But if he could also control people's minds, then he would really be unstoppable. What he only needed was for him to control so particularly powerful blackguards, and he could kill everyone while being safe.
Levium didn't know everything Erik could do, but he knew Erik had shown powers they hadn't expected before.
But this strange event happened right when and where they were chasing Erik. This was too coincidental to be just by chance.
In truth, Levium was just overthinking. Erik was strong, that was true, but again, he was limited with his brain crystal powers. He couldn't do sothing that thousands of people did, exactly as he did when he fought with his body alone.
That ant there was a limit to how many people he could kill with Frostwind Fire Tempest, for example, and that was because stronger people had stronger defenses against other people's powers. Regardless of what these defenses were.
Uncle Benjamin paused to think.
