Chapter 774 The Nightmare Is Real.
The defense paragon was ejected soon after. Then the child of the plane was summoned. He didn't leave his seat since his physical body couldn't go to the competition. He sent his consciousness over and took over the immortal link. The surrounding viewers were alarmed a little when he activated his boost from his title. White lightning converged on the child of the plane from every direction and he used it to boost his mind.
But try as he might, he couldn't force his consciousness to carry over his power through the immortal link. He was forced to use just the 2 million connections available in the arena as opposed to the 2 quadrillion connections available to him. That means he was restricted to 0.0000001% of his total boost.
Then there is the limit on his base power. He is using less than 1% of it because of the suppression of the world fragment. Nothing he can do can change it. He is not a participant in the competition since he didn't register. He can't even register since he is a sovereign of law. It is skirting the rules at best and cheating at worst for him to participate. There's no way he will be allowed to do more than that. So he was forced to fight a hopeless battle.
Everyone, be they titan or sovereign of law, watched with rapt attention and they made sure to school their facial expressions. They knew what the outcome will be but they have to watch it lest they offend the child of the plane. They also have to not show disappointment or any negative emotions while they watch. That will surely make matters worse.
They watched him fight until he became too weak to fight. They watched the champion of the furries refuse to fight him and let the other furries beat him up. They watched him die again and again until he finally died in the blazing inferno of Salvos' attack. Then the screen went dark.
The hall was plunged into silence. The silence was so thick that the arrival of the immortal link through the pillar almost went unregistered. No one said anything about anything. They waited for the child of the plane to say something first and ask for their opinions. But the child of the plane was brooding. He had all his 10 arms resting on the wide armrest while he bowed his head. He is thinking about what he just saw.
He spoke to them after sorting out his thoughts. His reptilian mouth was shut as he used his divine sense to communicate with them. First, he asked them a question.
"Do you know the lesson I have just learned?"
No one said anything. It was a rhetorical question so they shouldn't answer. They wouldn't answer even if he wanted their opinion. They are too afraid of him to give him their opinion.
Paragons are elevated above the common people but the child of the plane is high above the other paragons. He is a sovereign of law like many of them but they are not the same. He has managed to kill several origin gods as a Sovereign. He killed origin gods both within the plane and in the immortal lands. They are merely Sovereigns and titans of law. They have to fear him.I think you should take a look at
So they remained silent and waited for him to answer his own question. He did after a while of poignant silence.
He said to them, "I have just learned that no one should be underestimated. Even I, in all my glorious splendor and extraordinary might should not underestimate anyone."
He fears origin gods because they are the ones capable of killing him but he has never had any reason to think much of others that are weaker than him. But today, he learned not to underestimate anyone. Any race can go beyond the potential of their race and the limit of their divine ability to learn powerful laws like the law of space or time or both. So no race should be underestimated.
"Do you know what made me learn that lesson? I will tell you. It was not the champion of the furries. He is a champion so he should be special. It was those three white furries that don't look like they have a bloodline were the ones that made me learn that lesson."
He conjured the image of Salvos, Salvin, and Salvini just to make sure they all know which furries he is talking about. He didn't need to do so. The three of them are very notable to the vipers at this point. There are only three battle sage monkeys with white fur among all three million of them. The competition is open to only those with bloodlines so pure white fur is absent except for the bloodline of the sage.
He noticed that they were listening but none of them were taking what he said seriously. So he said, "The furries in the training excercise were real. They are not a simulation."
That Information was surprising but it didn't affect the titans and Sovereigns of law that have been to the ancient battlefield. They have seen numerous types of races so they are not surprised that powerful furries exist out there in the realm aside from their plane. It did bring things into perspective though. Now they know that the world god didn't create fake furries to bully the Vipers.
The paragons on the other hand felt as if their world was rocked. The fact that what they went through is actually real is not comforting. The fact that the nightmare of a furry is real will make sure that the trauma of Vitain the speedster will not heal. After all, that champion exists somewhere in the world.
And the fact that the Will of a plane chose a furry to be a child of the plane left the spell tower stunned. It also makes their loss more despicable. Now they can't give the excuse that the world god made them fight unrealistic enemies.
