Green was essentially an advanced servant created through a part of Negarys soul. He might not be comparable to Killer J or Noah who each represented an aspect of Negary, but he still had his own personality while also inheriting the past Greens consciousness.

Both Sarmytes talents and capabilities could be considered top-notch, being able to rely on a bit of leaked Source Energy to eventually reach the third stage of release in a few decades. Even if he couldnt advance any further, he was still quite impressive.

If the circ.u.mstances were different, Sarmyte might have had a chance to achieve even more, but right now, he was too far away from anything considerable.

Within the records of the Sun Shadow church, you were only said to be capable of affecting the eyesight of others, but your abilities shouldnt only be to affect eyesight, but rather to disturb the majority of means of perception Greens sword thrust straight towards Sarmyte. Sarmyte didnt exist at all within his sight, but that didnt disturb him in the slightest.

Sarmyte nimbly avoided Greens attack. Having survived for so long in the vicinity of the Unrepenting Abyss and became the leader of the Awakened Wicked Souls, his capabilities were naturally not limited to his [Origin] ability.

Sarmyte had also practiced magic. By using his ability, he was able to make it so that certain information could not be observed, and thus resolving the issue of contradictory spell structures. A lot of magic that would usually adversely affect one another existed at the same time in his body simply because they didnt recognize each others existence.

This allowed Sarmyte to achieve a lot of contradictory feats.

It isnt as if these informations dont exist, they are simply being disturbed by your ability. And our normal systems of perception cannot discern information that youve disturbed Green narrated: For example, normally when someone steps on the ground, no matter how lightly they tread, the ground would still react accordingly

But youve applied your ability on the reaction of the ground and obscured this information, making it inaccessible and unperceivable. On the other hand, as long as I understand the essence of your ability, I can easily dispel your disturbance and perceive the information youve obscured Green declared with absolute confidence.

In reality, Green hadnt inherited any of Negarys ability, so it wasnt as easy as he claimed to formulate a model for an ability at the 3rd stage of release. The reason why he was able to perceive Sarmyte was relying on a trick of Killer Js ability to sense hostility.

Since Killer J had obtained the Seed of Truth, all of his abilities surpa.s.sed the limit of Sarmytes obscurity, which allowed him to accurately determine where every bit of hostility he felt originated from. He could even a.n.a.lyze the information contained within the hostility to give various hints to Green.

Of course, Green would naturally not reveal this little secret, instead, he made up a story of seeing through Sarmytes ability to mess with his thoughts.

Hearing Greens words, Sarmytes expression was terrible. He refused to believe that his ability obtained through risking his life numerous times would be so easily resolved by someone else.

The essence of Sarmytes ability was the capability of interfering with the information of other objects to make them unperceivable. If used well, this ability would be terrifying, but if used incorrectly, one would only be able to use it to hide or something similar.

Sarmyte could be considered smart as he had used his ability to resolve the issue of contradicting spells, but that was also the extent of his capabilities.

If Negary had this ability, he would be capable of so much more. At the macro level, he would be to affect the worlds Information Sea, regulating and controlling the exchange of information in the world.

The so-called changes in the world were mostly the derivative product of the worlds parts exchanging information among themselves, one could affect many, and many could cause the entire world to change, this was the so-called b.u.t.terfly effect. One could have a perfect grasp over the future by having a perfect grasp on the exchange of information.

In the past, Negary had always manipulated the future through mixing either Impurity of Error into the worlds Information Sea; or personally entering the information flow to cause a quant.i.tative change that affected the future. But with Sarmytes ability, his regulation and control of the future would become so much easier.

At the micro level, he would be able to resolve the conflict of Impurity and Error. This ability was essentially an information regulator, capable of obscuring unnecessary information so that they wouldnt interact. In the same manner, over 3000 of Negarys current experiments would instantly be completely resolved, as well as further develop into more types of research.

And so, as soon as Green recognized Sarmyte, his future had already been set in stone. Or rather, he hadnt got a future ever since a while ago, a result of Negarys regulation of the future after discovering Sarmytes ability.

He made it so that a certain upper bra.s.s of the Half Life church would accidentally contact Sarmyte, then coincidentally reach an agreement. Numerous factors within their lives thus far had stimulated their actions and decisions, the other Awakened Wicked Souls might be able to survive, but Sarmytes future had already been determined.

Within the curved aspect of reality, numerous golden beads were spreading, regulating, controlling the worlds information flow. Any tiny disturbance would result in a change in the future, the change in information flow also represented the change in how matter would flow through s.p.a.ce-Time.

The information flow of other people was continuously changing to represent countless possibilities, but Sarmytes future was growing increasingly narrower as any information that would interact with him had been tightly regulated by the golden beads.

At this point, Negary could already read the research report on Sarmytes ability, because the only future left for him was to end up on Negarys experimentation table.

When both of a persons past and future had fallen into anothers grasp, they had already belonged to them. Sarmyte and Greens current battle was nothing but a formality now.

Just as Kunier had said, their souls had never been free. In Negarys hands, their so-called freedom was nothing but a hoax.

If they were able to escape this hoax, then their talents would be recognized by Negary, thus qualifying them to be Negarys nutrients.

Chromie has exerted himself again, huh Negary commented with some emotions.

Among the 300 million future possibilities that Negary had observed, there was a less than 1% chance of Chromie breaking through his limit and killing the 100-headed beast that Kunier had turned into; in a majority of these futures, Chromie ended up using the world coordinates he had to ask Killer J for help. In another portion of these possibilities, he would fail, causing Eternal Heat to act. The suns radiation would abruptly grow dozens of times harsher and instantly kill the majority of the Moon Tree worlds people.

Their souls would all drift towards the Unrepenting Abyss, forming into numerous rivers of glittering souls. It would have been a magnificently dreadful sight, but fortunately, that future would no longer come to pa.s.s.

Despite everything, Negary loved living beings. The latent potential of living beings had surprised him time and time again, and such ma.s.s murder would only waste the majority of those living beings potentials. If it was up to Negary, he would gradually cause the environment to grow harsher, forcing them to have to exert their latent potential and not waste their lives away.

In the middle of the battle, Chromie chose to risk his life. By volunteering to be absorbed by the 100-headed beast, he entered its body. Relying on the unique life structure of a half-elf, he wasnt a.s.similated right away and instead fully triggered his latent potentials while reaching Kuniers soul within the beast.

Ive come to grant you freedom! My good friend!

Chromies sword severed Kuniers soul shackles to disconnect his soul from this world, his [Origin] followed its unique connection to enter s.p.a.ce, while Kuniers soul was completely destroyed by Chromies Fearful Spirit and didnt enter the Decanter of G.o.ds Offering or the Unrepenting Abyss.

In s.p.a.ce, as Negary looked at the distance, he saw Mequik reaching out with her tentacles to surround the flying [Origin] and enveloped it with vitality mana, quickly creating another fetus that would grow to become the perfect soldier.

Negary then saw Chromie standing up from the body of the collapsed 100-headed beast with a satisfied look on his face, as if he had just fulfilled some sort of wish.

Negary couldnt help but shake his head.

Freedom, has always been nothing but a hoax
