Soul Of Negary

­The Apocalypse Stone Tablet used very vague and obscure sentences to express the upcoming disasters and calamities of the end of the world.

After the Original Disaster, the Ten Disasters would descend upon the world, manifesting as the great world-ending disaster that would wipe out intelligent life in this world.

And the Apocalypse Stone Tablet also pointed out a way to stop the Ten Disasters.

Due to foreseeing the Ten Disasters, the so-called ‘God’ divided his Authorities to correspond with the various disasters that could appear in the future, the most crucial of which were the Ten Disasters.

[Heaven Collapse], [Solar Storm], [War], [Planetary Core’s Shift], [Continental Sinking], [Great Flood], [Asteroid Impact], [Order Collapse], [Super Plague], and [Temporal Displacement].

These Ten Disasters were listed in the order that Negary saw them recorded in the Apocalypse Stone Tablet. If nothing went wrong, each of these disasters would correspond to and give birth to 10 Disaster Kings. Only when the 10 Disaster Kings have gathered, together with the ‘King of People’ who represented the world’s virtues and the ‘Lord of Aberration’ who represented the world’s error, could the end of the world be prevented.

Negary squinted his eyes.

〖 As the Protagonist, Fang Ze corresponds to [Asteroid Impact], so the next Disaster King to be born should be [Order Collapse], but hasn’t its birth already been prevented? 〗

〖 Or perhaps, Ye Kong was never meant to become the Disaster King in the first place? It would actually be his attempt at creating [Order Collapse] that gives birth to the true Disaster King 〗

Negary walked along the other path to head outside. For some reason, there weren’t any members of [Survivors] within this base at all.

It was also because he knew this that Negary went straight down here.

〖 Which means, the next Disaster King to be born would be [Super Plague] 〗

As Negary walked up the stairs, his eyes were frigid. His [Otherworld Invasion] wasn’t part of the Ten Disasters, but its description of him was very accurate. The disqualified king from another world, the Lord of Aberration who brought the stars onto his path.

However, there were no mentions of his relation to the [Super Plague] Authority, even if there was, it would be a competitive relationship.

This spelled something out very clearly, he would not be able promote his [Otherworld Invasion] Authority to [Super Plague], rather it would be someone else that obtained it.

An Authority held almost absolute control over matters it corresponded to, and even though Negary had now evolved to become a soul virus, in essence, he was still a ‘plague’.

This meant that even if the Authority Holder wouldn’t be able to completely control Negary, they would still be a huge threat to him.

〖 Then, why did Yu Guang Ming tell me about this? 〗Negary contemplated: 〖 From his standpoint, he should hope for the continuation of this world 〗

〖 If what was stated on the Apocalypse Stone Tablet is correct, the 10 Disaster Kings standing on the same side, the ‘King of People’ described should refer to Fang Ze as the Protagonist, together with myself as the Lord of Aberration, we would be able to stop the end of the world 〗

〖 Although it wasn’t stated clearly, it most likely won’t end well for the 10 Disaster Kings and myself after we stop this apocalyptic disaster, so telling me about this would only hinder the process mentioned in the stone tablet 〗

〖 Now that I’m prepared, I can find a countermeasure against the [Super Plague] Authority’s control and escape from the stone tablet’s prophecy 〗Negary was extremely sure that he would not risk his life just to protect this world.

〖 Or perhaps, this was Yu Guang Ming’s goal in the first place? Not having the same level of information is truly uncomfortable 〗

Negary didn’t have complete faith in the contents of the Apocalypse Stone Tablet, not to mention this was nothing but a copy, who knows if Yu Guang Ming had altered it or not.

Furthermore, even if the information was kept exactly as it was on the Apocalypse Stone Tablet, Negary would still not put his faith in it completely. If prophecies and predictions were guaranteed, then all the efforts and struggles for all parties involved would be discounted as simply following a predetermined fated path.

Of course, even if that truly was the case, even if he was under the domination of destiny, Negary would still strive for the best.

Opening the door at the end of the hidden path, Negary left the base of [Survivors] and found himself inside a small building.

〖 What exactly is [Survivors] trying to do? 〗

Through the Apocalypse Stone Tablet, Negary was able to draw an almost complete picture of what happened in the Yue Bu earthquake 16 years ago.

Simply put, the process of the Apocalypse Stone Tablet was cut short, the Authority [Continental Sinking] did not appear, and the world was now helpless against the ‘Apocalypse’.

Since this was the case, most likely, Yu Guang Ming did not intend to promote his Authority to [Continental Sinking], but was forced in some way to do so.

This also explained why the members of [Survivors] hated the government and the D.E.R division so much, because it was most likely them who were the masterminds behind that disaster.

For those people, it had always been the same cliché, sacrificing the benefit of the few for the sake of the bigger picture, even if ‘the few’ here meant the millions of Yue Bu citizens.

〖 Then, the [Continental Sinking] Disaster King was actually born during the Yue Bu earthquake, I wonder who it could be? 〗Negary opened the door to see that he was currently in a certain Yue Bu university.

…

It was now spring, life returned to all things, and it once again became time for animals to go into heat.

The photinia flowers¹ in the university had bloomed, releasing its fragrance all over the air, causing female university students who recognized its smell to become flushed to their ears and quickly run away.

Killer J was following a fatty into the university, picking up a few of these blooming photinia flowers and took a good whiff of them. As his eyes darted all around, he threw them away in regret:

“I can’t. I’m someone who just lost his wife, I cannot afford to touch other flowers or grass, it seems there’s no choice but to cut these fated threads apart”

“Your disease is acting up again. Hurry up and follow me, with so many people gathered this time, we’re definitely going for something huge” the fatty next to him excitedly said.

“Something huge!” hearing that, Killer J’s eyes glowed: “Hurry, Bajie¹, give me my black frame…”

…

Luo Ping’s eyes opened wide. During these past years, they had also been searching for this possibility. For a survivor of the earthquake who might have inherited Yu Guang Ming’s [Earthquake] Authority, or perhaps even [Continental Sinking], but who could’ve thought, the one who obtained it was actually the traitor.

“Fooled you…” Chang Xia’s blade cut directly through his Disasforce and slashed Luo Ping’s right leg. As his blood spilled everywhere, Luo Ping collapsed.

The Disasforce fluctuations that came from Chang Xia’s body swiftly faded, but instead of returning to his body, it vanished without a trace, almost like it was consumed.

Disasforce Container, one of the latest scientific breakthroughs of the D.E.R division. It’s capable of storing Disasforce from Authority Holders and allowed anyone to use the Disasforce inside, as long as they followed the guidelines.

However, unlike the Disasforce of Authority Holders that could be used indefinitely as long as they had the strength to do so, this Disasforce was a consumable.

“Seems like the long years of peace have made you dull to battle” wielding the long blade that didn’t have a drop of blood on it in his hand, Chang Xia coldly spoke: “Otherwise, how would you have been disturbed so easily by the enemy’s words?”

When Chang Xia first joined the D.E.R division, their domestic situation was chaotic, to say the least, and his team was responsible for watching over the ancient ruins that contained the Stone Tablet, so any hidden organizations that got wind of the Stone Tablet’s existence frequently came to pick fights with them.

In short, Chang Xia, without a doubt, belonged to the faction that resorted to violence at the first possible opportunity.
