Chapter 469: Overlord’s gamble
There was shock and confusion in the eyes of the entire army as they witnessed the God bowing deeply and addressing Vlad as "Master." The murmurs among the soldiers grew louder, disbelief rippling through the ranks like a wave. A being that had seemed invincible on the battlefield, capable of obliterating a Leviathan Lord with unparalleled grace and power, now displayed such humility before their commander. It was a sight that shattered preconceived notions of divinity and authority, leaving the soldiers grappling with their perceptions of strength and loyalty.
On the other hand, Vlad’s expression remained cold and analytical. His sharp gaze cut through the moment like a blade, his thoughts concealed. The Depravita of Wrath studied the God before him, his mind racing through calculations and questions. Finally, he raised a hand, signaling the being to rise. The God obeyed immediately, his movements fluid and precise, though the reverence in his demeanor did not waver.
A sharp light crossed Vlad’s eyes as he activated the A.I. Chip. Energy surged through his mind, and the familiar mechanical voice echoed in his thoughts.
[Beep! Target controls a magnetic force field similar to the one used to perform scans. Does the Host wish to attempt a forced bypass?]
Vlad said nothing, his silence a command in itself. His piercing gaze bore into the God, unyielding and expectant. For a moment, the magnetic force field resisted, a subtle tension radiating between the two. But then, as if acknowledging an inevitable outcome, the force field dissipated. The way cleared, and the A.I. Chip resumed its work with precise efficiency, analyzing every aspect of the target’s being.
[Beep! Scanning target.
Target scanned successfully.
