Chapter 1925: Transmutation on Alien?
"!!!" Anubis, Xolotl, Garuda, and even Catalith were shocked.
Catalith didn’t know who this Apophis was, but she knew it wasn’t an ordinary creature.
"Are you crazy? Even Ra has a hard time containing this guy." Anubis frowned. "I’m sure you know this, but Ra is on a whole different level than Jinwu. I’m not saying this because I am looking down on Jinwu, but that’s just how strong Ra is."
"I understand that." Nathan nodded. "However, just like Chaos, Apophis might really be one of the few beings born from the Great Void. For some reason, they could lead a life here, unlike the black cell who has no choice but to get the aliens.
"In a way, their existence is quite weird. The black cell can control the aliens, but they’re weaker than the Outer Gods. So, I’m thinking that the creatures in the Great Void are not as powerful as you imagine. However, they might have a large number.
"Of course, there’s no proof that they’re weak either. I’m just saying that the trip to the Great Void might be possible. If we can enter the Great Void to know what kind of existence the black cell is, we may find a clue on how to defeat it.
"In addition, we need more information about the Great Void. The best way is to have beings who were born from the Void. We can’t call Chaos, but we definitely can call Apophis.
"I’m aware of the danger, but in the worst-case scenario, I will just not summon him anymore." Nathan explained his plan.
"I can’t say I like the idea." Anubis shook his head helplessly. "...but I definitely can understand your perspective."
Nathan had been wondering whether he should summon Jormungandr or Apophis. He was leaning on Jormungandr, considering he had summoned Fenrir.
Elysion also had Hela, so in a way, all three children had been accounted for. There were other children, but it wasn’t that important for the time being.
If he could have all those three children, he might be able to get some courage to summon Loki.
However, after learning about the circumstances of this universe, he couldn’t help but think of something else.
What if he chose to abandon this plan? Instead, he would summon Apophis, who had knowledge about the Great Void. There was a chance his speculation was wrong and Apophis wasn’t born from the Great Void at all.
However, he was willing to take the risk. If he was correct, he wasn’t just one step closer. He might even be two or three steps closer to defeating the black cell.
Besides, Apophis’s strength was unimaginable. Ra might be able to suppress him, but Apophis was immortal.
"..." Xolotl looked down, contemplating. "Fortunately, there is me, Garuda, Tiamat, Abzu, and Ananta. Well, the others are also approaching this level, like you, Anubis."
Garuda nodded in agreement. "If Apophis is causing a mess, we can try to suppress him."
"And don’t we know how our summoners operate?" Xolotl chuckled.
"I know, right?" Garuda smiled. He knew how weird their summoner was. He would always make the impossible possible.
Anubis sighed. "If that’s your decision, I’ll respect that. We’ll try to prepare for countermeasures, but you need to be extra careful."
He couldn’t imagine what would happen if Apophis and Loki were here at the same time. It would be extra chaotic.
Meanwhile, Catalith had been listening to their conversation. Nathan might be intending to reveal the information about this being coming from the Great Void.
However, he ended up revealing the core of his power as well.
What she didn’t know was that the reveal was intentional, including the summoning part.
He didn’t say anything about how to summon it. Even if she could summon something, this world had few options to offer.
Unlike Earth or their original world, where Earth and many other planets had been combined into it, it was basically hard to establish the summoning system. Loki had deliberately combined all those planets so that the alien could spread the summoning system.
That was why he named the project "Summoners War."
Instead, Nathan used this to pique her interest.
After reaching an agreement, Nathan turned to Catalith and explained, "Well, sorry about that. Let’s continue with the rest of the topics, shall we? I understand the Great Void. As for the battlefields, I will wait until you bring me there.
"Then, the next topic should be the technique that harmed the elf king." Nathan raised one finger.
He intended to get this technique for one reason. The black cell.
"Of course." She snapped her fingers. A book from her table floated in the air and landed on her lap. "This is the technique. It’s called Burning Desire. It is a technique that allows you to transmute your own body in exchange for more power. It’s quite a vicious one, considering the risk."
Nathan received the book carefully and read it.
"Ah, this..." Anubis gasped, noticing something. "Isn’t this..."
Xolotl narrowed his eyes. "The black cell."
"What are you talking about?" Catalith tilted her head in confusion.
"This power is similar to the one we know from the black cell. Do you know that the black cell can lend its power to the alien in exchange for the alien’s lifespan?"
"Yes, I’m aware. I don’t think this is the technique."
"Until recently, yes." Nathan nodded. "How long since you last fought against a powerful alien?"
"A long time. I don’t remember. Twenty years?"
Nathan sighed. "That’s why you probably don’t know the fact that the aliens can get even more power from the black cell now. We thought it was about efficiency, but..."
"Are you thinking the black cell is using the transmutation on the black cell so that it can channel even more power?"
"Most likely. All I know is that the aliens don’t need to be recalled to have that ability, so it should come directly from the black cell. Maybe you can prove it."
Catalith fell silent. If this was true, then the situation would be even more dangerous. The gods might not be able to sit still anymore, considering their technique had been used to strengthen the enemy.
It looked like she really needed to confirm it.
