Chapter 928 - - 618 The Victory No One Understands

—————✧✧✧✧—————

Cheson was silent for a moment, then said, “A fleet contains various forces, some of whose identities even I am not clear about. Once we defect, it’s impossible to keep it a secret, and the news about the Origin of Mankind will eventually get out.”

“Trust the people you use, don’t use people you can’t trust. And he calls himself Divine King? How petty,” Duge scoffed, “Rest assured, if you follow me, you won’t have these problems. Your people will always remain yours; I won’t insert anyone among you to restrain you. If you betray me later, it would only mean I lack virtue.”

We hadn’t even surrendered yet, but he was already making promises.

Cheson snorted under his breath, saying, “I just want to know if you’re prepared for the news of the Origin of Mankind to leak out?”

“Speed is of the essence in warfare,” Duge smiled, “The two Divine Races have already started fighting. Even if they find out about your defection, they won’t be able to spare the forces immediately. Besides, I’m officially the Eastern War God of the Heavenly Gods Clan. As long as we fly the flag of escorting the Origin of Mankind to the Heavenly Gods Clan, they will continue to support us.

Keeping the battlefield away from the main battlefields of the two Divine Races, constantly attracting people to attack or help us, will steadily increase our allies…”

“Once it leaks, it involves all the plans,” Cheson said, “Including Birmingham’s betrayal. Do you think the Divine King of the Heavenly Gods would still support you then?”

“True and false, false and true. The messages released by your people, expecting the Divine King to believe everything, that would be too stupid of him! The Thorne Divine Tribe has held the Origin of Mankind for so many years, if it was possible to utilize its full potential, they would have developed it long ago, wouldn’t they have waited until now?” Duge said, “Rest easy, as long as we spread enough false information, nobody will believe the so-called truth.”

“…” Raite.

“…” Cheson.

“I can surrender, let me first gain a superpower.” Raite’s forehead vein bulged as he said with red eyes, unwilling to believe the Divine Kings would be so easily deceived.

They were foolish indeed, believing in Duge after seeing his demonstration of Divine Power, without even thinking of verifying it.

“Do you believe me, daring to come near me?” Duge asked with a mischievous look, eyeing Raite.

“I believe you could have killed me already if you wanted to. I’m no match for you,” Raite said, glancing at Jannie, his teeth clenched.

“Good,” Duge nodded and sighed, “It’s just that I’m short of men, otherwise I would never agree to such disrespectful requests, after all, you have yet to earn my trust.”

“…” Raite looked at him, saying nothing.

Duge moved next to him, pulling along the Origin of Mankind: “Place your hand on the Origin of Mankind.”

Raite silently placed his hand on it.

Duge mobilized Divine Power, activating the Origin of Mankind.

The mist inside the Origin of Mankind churned.

Cheson watched Raite with intense eyes, his expression extremely tense; after all, this related to his future fate. The people of the Thorne Divine Tribe knew everyone had only one chance for the blessing of the Origin of Mankind.

The Divine Power completely enveloped the Origin of Mankind, stirring the mist inside, surging into the palm of Raite’s hand.

Duge had verified that people genetically modified by the Origin of Mankind were immune to its mist, but that did not stop him from exploiting the Origin for his own ends.

The Sea God’s Power followed the Origin of Mankind all the way into Raite’s palm.

Using the Origin, Duge transformed Raite into an Envoy of Sea God.

This was a unique ability of the Main God; on the previous Alien Battlefield, he called this Foundation Remodeling, and on this Alien Battlefield, it was called Genetic Modification…

The Sea God’s Power quietly modified Raite’s body, simulating the noise of an Origin of Mankind awakening, the process was domineering and intense.

The moment the Divine Power invaded Raite’s body, his expression turned ferocious.

Cheson watched the scene intently, his heartbeats almost stopping.

For a moment.

The Sea God’s Power completed the transformation of Raite.

Duge withdrew the Divine Power and also took back the Origin of Mankind, asking, “Raite, how do you feel? Try it out, what superpower do you think you’ve awakened?”

Raite furrowed his brow, quietly sensing the changes in his body.

After a moment, he looked toward the nearby water dispenser.

Then he used Divine Power on the water dispenser, the water inside stirred into waves.

Using telekinesis, Raite broke open the water dispenser, summoned all the water out, and held it in his palm, then tentatively turned the water into ice.

“It seems I’ve awakened the ability to control water,” Raite said, “but, I could do the same with telekinesis…”

“Raite, the powers awakened by the Origin of Mankind are random, no one can control it,” Duge said, “You should focus on whether a new power has emerged.”

“Indeed it has,” Raite paused for a moment, manipulating the water in his palm into various shapes, “Although the water control ability is weak, indeed a new power has emerged. Kou Nan, you truly broke the limitations of the Origin, but the sensation of the new power feels a bit different than before.”

“Raite, if it were the same, the Thorne Divine Tribe would have uncovered the secrets of the Origin long ago,” Duge shrugged and smiled, “Raite, you should focus on the power itself. Being able to develop a new ability means you can develop a second one, but from now on, earning my trust is essential. Only interests are eternal among people, nobody can casually take benefits from me.”

Phew!

Cheson exhaled deeply, his gaze suddenly resolute.

“I can agree to join you,” Raite looked at Duge and said, “but deserting in face of the enemy is a serious crime. How do I keep my subordinates in line? Tell them the truth? They might not all accept it, the mist in the Origin is limited, and not everyone can be a Divine King…”
