Chapter 813: Chapter 365: Identity Exposed (3)
"The divination also revealed other information... Uphemia indeed possesses so special abilities... capable of interfering with certain apostles in the Abyss Fifth Layer..."
Her fingers gently caressed the surface of the "Celestial Sphere," feeling the complex flow of information within:
"Especially the Blood Tear Duke Asmond... Her bloodline source can exert so coercive influence on him...
If other apostles wish to intervene in Ron’s actions... she can indeed provide effective containnt..."
This additional information placed Uther in a dilemma.
From a purely rational perspective, having an extra piece to play certainly holds value, especially when dealing with the complex power dynamics of the Abyss.
"Then let’s make a conditional exchange."
Uther finally made the difficult decision, with the phantom reforming into a majestic figure:
"If you truly wish to participate, I can give you this chance, but you must accept my Void Remains’ Mark for monitoring."
Silver light began to condense into a complex rune structure, imbued with Great Wizard Level willpower:
"This mark will monitor your actions and intentions in real-ti.
Any movent harmful to Ron will be imdiately perceived by
and will face direct sanctions from the Void Power."
Uphemia looked at the rune flashing with majestic light, knowing it was her only opportunity.
Although accepting the mark ant exposing all her actions completely, it was better than being entirely excluded.
"I accept."
Her voice regained its firmness, carrying a do-or-die determination:
"But I also have one condition. If I successfully help Ron, you must provide
with a research position at the observation station..."
This request slightly surprised Uther.
A creation of the King of Blood, wishing for formal status at the Abyssal Observation Station?
The very thought was full of irony.
"If you can truly prove your value..."
Uther pondered for a mont before nodding in agreent:
"I can consider giving you a temporary researcher status, but a formal position... that will require more proof."
The integration process of the Void Remains’ Mark was accompanied by intense ntal disturbance.
As the silver rune sank into Uphemia’s consciousness, she felt an unprecedented sense of constraint.
It wasn’t physical, but a deeper level of will restraint.
"Now, you may depart."
Uther’s tone turned businesslike again, full of warning:
"Rember, your task is to assist and protect, not to dominate. Ron’s safety is the absolute first priority."
He paused, his silver eyes piercingly gazing at Uphemia:
"If I find you attempting to use this opportunity to harm him, or to execute other secret tasks..."
The air around the phantom began to tremble violently, exuding a terrifying pressure enough to shatter the spirit of ordinary people:
"I will make you understand what is ant by a pain worse than death."
......
Deep in the Flesh and Blood Forest, when Ron returned from the consciousness link with the puppet, he already had a clear plan for the upcoming eting.
Nari had been completely convinced and was moving swiftly towards the fourth layer.
Based on the information communicated, it would take at most six hours to reach the eting point.
Everything was proceeding orderly according to his plan.
"The cover of the Chaos Storm, protection of the Innate Apostle, and the Stand-In Puppet as an emotional link..."
Ron reviewed the steps of the action in his mind, each link precisely calculated:
"As long as a trust relationship can be successfully established, the subsequent modification work can proceed in a relatively safe environnt."
He retrieved a Magic Power Amplification Crystal from the storage bag, feeling the powerful energy contained within.
But just as he focused on the plan details, his keen perception ability captured an abnormal energy fluctuation from afar.
It wasn’t the aura of an Abyssal native creature, but so more complex existence.
It was a human magic core, but mixed with obvious Abyssal traits and so ancient powers he couldn’t imdiately identify.
"Soone is approaching..."
Ron imdiately went on alert, simultaneously activating "Extraordinary Recognition" to observe the distance.
Through the twisted forest of organs, he saw a figure that surprised him.
White long hair fluttered like silver threads in the eerie glow of the Flesh and Blood Forest.
That elegance maintained even in such a harsh environnt made her identity clear as day.
"Uphemia Pele..."
Ron squinted, quickly recalling all the information about this competitor in his mind:
"A genius from the Blood Moon Clan, the third seat of the New Star Plan, possessing rare bloodline domination talent... But why is she here?"
According to previous divination predictions, a dangerous woman was indeed going to be involved in the incident.
But he originally thought it referred to so female Abyssal apostle, never expecting it to be a peer competitor from the New Star Plan.
"It seems the situation has beco more complicated..."
Ron did not imdiately reveal himself but chose to continue observing Uphemia’s intentions.
In an environnt as dangerous as the Abyss, any rash decision could lead to catastrophic consequences.
And from afar, Uphemia seed to sense a sort of faint observation presence.
Her steps beca more cautious, and the blood demons following her also entered a combat-ready state.
