Chapter 221: Vol3 Ch21: The Soundless cult
Translator: La0o9
The will of the world ntioned that Chromie had sothing that Negary wanted, and Negary could faintly guess what it was.
The thing Negary lacked the most right now was a way to make up for his lack of [Origin].
Furthermore, Negary had already stayed in this world for quite a bit of ti. Although the will of this world was being treated and raised as cattle to be harvested, it still had access to basic abilities of the will of a world, especially when the owners – the seven Righteous Gods – were currently not here.
〖 The first step is complete 〗Negary’s body had now turned into a puddle of glittering gold liquid that was constantly undulating.
In the Disaster world, he had collected Shennai’s remnant soul, which he had been studying. Negary’s results so far included the structure of his soul, the mories left in his mind, as well as how his abilities were used.
Another individual who was in a similar situation was Lan Shan. Her [Origin] was related to the plague, so after she had released her [Origin], the ability she earned was also related to plagues and diseases. However, she wasn’t much of a fighter, so her abilities hadn’t been utilized much.
The first step of Negary’s plan involved extracting the formulas of these abilities. His goal was to reorganize these formulas, then reconstruct and integrate them into his soul.
All [Origin] abilities were naturally created, born from the essence of the [Origin] in conjunction with the living body’s desires and needs.
What Negary needed to do was to understand why these specific formulas led to the birth of such abilities, or at least to understand the representative functions of such formulas.1
After that, he needed to extract only what he required to manufacture the corresponding abilities.
The more an [Origin] was released, the more powerful and complicated the [Origin] ability would beco, and the more factors that contributed to that ability would be present.
In truth, quite a few people had already done this, although unlike Negary, they did it on a much simpler scale, it was still considerably impressive.
‘They’ were the Witches.
First, they borrowed a portion of the soul formula extracted from [Origin] abilities, then simplified and modified them to beco suitable for their ntal power, also known as interference force to utilize.
The abilities that could be utilized by drawing the corresponding formulas with their interference force were called Witchcrafts.
Naturally, the Witchcrafts created in the Fla world were created to suit the Fla world’s environnt. The ability formulas that they drew up, through their modifications, would resonate with the world’s authority to manifest as real phenona. If they were in a different world, they would lose their effects.
Because of that, the Witchcraft of the Fla world was said to be more akin to the replication of the Divine race and Dragon race’s authorities.
During his research, Negary discovered that the Fla world’s Witchcraft, the Disaster world’s physic ability research during their second cycle, as well as the magical rituals of this world, all had several common points.
With so much reference material, Negary’s research on [Origin] ability proceeded very smoothly. At this point, he had managed to completely analyze the preliminary formulas for his own ability as well as Lan Shan’s ability, thus reorganizing them.
While Shennai’s [Worship of Impurity] ability was an ability earned after the third stage of release, so it was much harder to analyze and had been put aside for now.
In reality, Negary didn’t only just record these few abilities.
Killer J’s [Hostility Manipulation], Noah’s [God’s Words Realized], Fang Ze’s [Starforce], Chen Di Xi’s [Soul Blade], etc. Negary’s greatest assets that he gained from the Disaster world was definitely the large number of recorded [Origin] abilities.
Although right now, these assets were essentially redundant. As long as the essence of his soul wasn’t strong, it didn’t matter how many abilities he had. Being a jack of all trades but master of none would only make one a laughing stock; only an all-arounder that mastered everything would be truly revered.
Just now, Negary had integrated the portion of Lan Shan’s ability formula into his soul, thus allowing the [Virus Manipulation] ability that had stagnated for a long ti to finally be improved.
With this, his [Origin] ability broke through to reach the second stage of release, while its formula had already gotten almost as complicated as the ability Negary recorded from Shennai.
His [Viral Manipulation] had now evolved to beco [Plague Manipulation], greatly improving its performance both quantitatively and qualitatively.
At the sa ti, Negary could feel the burden this ability was constantly exerting on his soul. An ability that nearly reached the third stage of release was a bit too much of a burden for a soul at the second stage of release to bear. If Negary’s soul hadn’t been cherry-picked to be the best that it could be, an ability that was too advanced would instead beco a liability.
“Lord Negary, there is sothing that this subordinate would like to request Lord Negary to do” a voice suddenly resounded from outside: “I have found a grimoire”
〖 Horton, was it? 〗hearing his voice, Negary recognized him as Horton Crow, the owner and manager of the biggest construction company in Lohr. In truth, the building Negary was currently residing in was offered up by him, so Negary wasn’t surprised that he directly ca here.
〖 Your voice contains both excitent and anxiety, as well as a hint of fear. While you are lying, your ‘nate’ syllable will beco very nasally 〗the golden liquid continuously converged, once again manifesting Negary’s perfect body: 〖 Horton, I understand you well. This is how you act while you do things that go against your conscience 〗
〖 You’ve betrayed the Hermit Order 〗putting on a set of clothes, Negary stated the truth: 〖 I understand the extent of your abilities. You might be a very talented rchant, but completely clueless about Mysticism, you must have relied on other organizations in order to nullify my ans of monitoring 〗
〖 The Soundless cult? The Cannibal Cult? Or the Church of Dragon Worshippers? 〗Negary casually asked.
The door was directly blown open to reveal three n in loose clothing in front of Negary. All of them were bald, quite clearly, they had also cut off their own ears and had most likely pierced through their eardrums as well, all of which were replaced with nurous tiny runes.
〖 Looks like it was the Soundless cult 〗seeing their appearance, Negary recognized the assailants.
Horton was hiding behind the three Soundless cult mbers, slightly trembling to himself. He was wearing clothing suitable for an upper mber of society, the only odd point being a headband on top of his head. There was a gem engraved in the middle of the headband, as well as a gem-engraved ring on his right hand next to his Hermit Order ring.
“Lead the Hermit Order and surrender to the Soundless cult, as this is the rcy of the Lord” the Soundless cult mbers spoke in a very strange rhythm, almost as if they were chanting or singing.
However, Negary completely ignored them and simply spoke to Horton.
〖 Horton, your greatest shortcoming was your inability to recognize the situation, as well as recognizing your own limits. Sooner or later, this will end with you losing your life, for example, right now 〗as soon as Negary said that, Horton felt his head becoming heavy before he collapsed to the ground.
The three mbers of the Soundless cult exclaid in surprise: “While wearing the Gem of Silence, your ability shouldn’t have affected him”
“However, that is still useless, as all things shall eventually return to silence” the Soundless cult mbers swiftly regained their calm and lightly declared.
All sounds within their surroundings soon vanished, not even one’s own heartbeat or breathing could be heard any longer. At the sa ti, sothing terrifying seed to be brewing within this dreaded silence.
