Chapter 188: Greed’s Embrace
"I now bestow upon you the name Ouroboros!" Vlad’s tone carried an ancient solemnity, yet the people watching from a distance couldn’t help but feel odd as they saw the massive white wolf wagging his tail, generating an intense breeze.
Vlad also noticed how Ouroboros behaved, but he maintained a composed expression, simply nodding to the large white wolf. His eyes then grew sharp as he focused on the Depravita of Greed and sent the power of the A.I. Chip.
[Beep! Analyzing target!
...
Interference detected! An unknown force is using the target’s energy to block the scan!
...
Does the Host wish to attempt to break through the blockage?]
Vlad’s smile widened as he heard the robotic voice of his A.I. Chip because the only way that Ouroboros could have something hindering his scan was if the white wolf also had an A.I. Chip. It seemed that just like Jormungandr, the white wolf also obtained one thanks to the piece of Vlad’s soul that fused into his own, connecting them at a spiritual level.
The Depravita of Wrath did not command the A.I. Chip to force its way in. He simply waited for the white wolf to understand what was happening and hoped he would grant permission.
Immediately after Vlad’s A.I. Chip attempted to perform the scan, Ouroboros’ eyes widened as he began to look around. He focused on the young man with confusion as he seemed to acclimate to the existence of the A.I. Chip inside his soul, forming all sorts of questions in his mind that the robotic voice answered.
Finally, after a few minutes, Ouroboros stared at Vlad and silently nodded, no longer resisting the scan. The next second, the robotic voice echoed in the young man’s mind again.
