Chapter 1010 Test Subjects
-----
Greenwood looked into the several holograms in front of him, they showcased all sorts of things, from parameters to statistics, and even the information of countless people he had registered into this information network. He glanced at all the information, quickly landing into the picture of a young and angered little Elf girl with blonde hair and green eyes. The name she was registered as was "Test Subject 6402: Alma." And there was also something saying: "Codename: Infinite".
In the information, a brief resume of this girl's personality, background, and powers were registered, which Greenwood began to read with lower voice, just to refresh his memory of who this girl was, although it wasn't as if he had completely forgotten her, she had been annoying him ever since she escaped the facility, and has been ruining his plans, freeing many Unique Skill users he held captive, and has, up to date, destroyed over ten of his secret facilities.
It was still a mystery to him how she was capable of finding them so easily, there was something or someone with her that had the power of detecting his facilities…
"Alma, Codename: Infinite. A Young princess from a Kingdom in Alfheim. Annoying and keen for trouble. She screams loudly when experimented on, and always struggles and kicks the facility members whenever she's held against her will. She has an intellect above most of the facility workers here. And is often seen always planning something. Escape attempts: 52…" Sighed Greenwood. "Number 52 was the successful one, and not only she escaped, but she also got back her special Weapon and escaped with several other test subjects."
"Unique Skill: [Endless Mana]. For a long time, this was a mystery to many of us. We didn't truly knew how it worked, but ultimately, we learned she was able to directly absorb mana from the environment, the world itself, but not any other living creature around her, effectively giving her as much Mana as the entire world of Yggdrasil itself. She used to have a special curse in her Mana Core prohibiting her from using magic, but that seal was broken, and although she cannot Rank Up anyways due to her Mana Core being atrophied after the seal removal, her magic power is almost unparalleled, and only dependent in how much her soul can take… If she finds a way to strengthen her soul, she might become unstoppable. High caution is required, she's incredibly powerful."
Greenwood sighed, looking at the information about the others he had registered there. Hermes face appeared there as well, which filled him with a lot of anger. This man's powers were hard to contain, he had to use his best technology to capture him, but at the end, due to Alma, he freed himself. Now even if he could capture everyone else, capturing this man seemed near impossible, his teleportation ability was incredibly annoying.
"It has been a couple of months since their last sighting, but according to Red's Vampires, it seems they're currently… participating in a Cooking Competition? And also there's another man there, strangely mysterious and with two children." Sighed Greenwood. He was unable to identify them as he couldn't send any droid there to go spy them. For some reason, there was a strange divine presence which didn't allow for any small robot to get closer, they were all instantly destroyed.
He couldn't tell the true identity of this ice giant man, even if it was actually Drake which he had already seen before, he only saw him in his dragon form, and never truly saw him in his ice giant form, unable to detect his aura was also one of the reasons he couldn't know that was Drake. The Vampires couldn't simply send him an image of what they saw either, so he couldn't recognize Benladann.
"So her next target is Heaven's Port Facility. I have already exhausted my robots, there's barely any there, bringing a new batch will take over a month too, the teleportation devices cannot teleport so many things at the same time, let alone consecutively." Sighed Greenwood, he was honestly in a lot of trouble.
However, it wasn't as if this scheming man didn't had his trump cards, and such trump cards lied in the very test subjects he held captive inside of that facility, and of course, one of them included nobody else than someone Alma knew very well… And well, another unknown Reincarnated Soul he had captured over three years ago, a being that was not reincarnated as a person, but as a kind of monster, a small and inconspicuous one that held a terrifying power within itself.
"If I use this person to throw Alma's mind into shambles and then utilize the power of my soldiers and this monster to defeat her and her subjects, then it might be possible for me to win and keep my facility stable. Worst case scenario, Hermes will run away with everyone else and I'll have enough time before they come back to bring more equipment, especially mechs." Greenwood planned, smiling maliciously. After all, his greatest weapons were the test subjects he held captive themselves. And this special one has been fed with great food.
A sudden hologram appeared, as a random Elven Scientist called Greenwood, who was resting in his main facility inside of the continent of Alfheim, where elves lived.
"Master Greenwood, the test subject Gluttony seems to have grown unstable…"
"Hm? Gluttony? Why?"
Greenwood looked into a caption of the creature, which seemed to be slamming its body against the entire area where it was confined. The powerful energy shields were barely containing it, but it was costing the facility most of its energy in the process.
"It has been feed regularly but… just two days ago, it started acting very strange…"
"Hmmm… Well, just don't get in his way whenever you free him to go against Alma. The rowdier he is, the better the results anyways, right?"
"R-Right but still, it might be dangerous for the rest of us if…!"
"If what?" Greenwood looked back at the elf with a sharp glare.
