New Game+ - Chapter 456: Thought Transmitter

Days have passed after the battle between the Serpent and the werewolf and the eruption of bright light over the city in South America.

Several skirmishes around the world were also reported that day, along with the discovery of a massive underwater ship that was eliminating various Underwater cities. The size of the ship was similar to the size of the massive saucer that attacked Egypt and fought against the Pyramid and the Moon.

In short, it was just another normal day in the world. News reporters around the globe have already adjusted to a new format of news delivery. It was now likened to an army official laying down tactical plans for the attacks. And somehow, people were able to return to a normal life.

The entertainment industries were somehow able to continue. The privileged continued with their lifestyle, and while they were trying to find ways to sympathize with the world, the result of their attempts was seen as distasteful and insensitive.

Some of the more powerful and more influential elites even flew on several airspace’s of enemy nations and was not barred as they crossed the borders but were allowed to pass.

Seeker continued to watch the news together with Zeraphine. They were in a very large hotel room sponsored by Unlocked Industries. The building was magnificent, and the room itself could fit an entire house. The two were cuddling close together and was relaxing as they watched the television.

“I can’t believe that I am right here, enjoying my last date with Lara…” Seeker laughed.

“…Yeah.” Zeraphine nodded.

“Will this girl remember everything? I mean, will she still be in love with me?”

“She will remember everything. She sees things as if she was watching television. But her emotions are detached from the entire experience. It is possible. Why? Are you thinking of taking her instead?”

“Of course not. I’m in love with a Piercing fanatic, Veil Cruz-adoring, complicated Presider you.” Seeker chuckled.

“But it’s such a mysterious power! Your soul! It’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen!”

“You already have seen it. There was an old man in the World Governing Trading Hub who Emperors surrounded. He had that same strange power.”

“An old man?”

“Yes. I’ve done a bit of a background check on him, and I’m sure he’s Nogard Meng.”

“Nogard Meng? Isn’t he like that old Chinese hero? He’s alive?!”

“Yes. I guess that’s how he managed to live long. And you’re father also placed several souls in you to defend against such power. It’s probably why he was confident that I couldn’t manipulate you or use my power against you.”

“Scary. So which one of your Presider friends is attacking the Underwater cities in the pacific region? Is your main body safe?”

“It’s Myrth. And yes, don’t worry. She won’t dare attack my body even if she knows the main carrier that carries it.”

“Why?”

“Myrth won’t clash with Garenjazz.”

“That pokemon nerd?”

“Yeah. He’s probably the strongest Presider on Earth. The Top Tiers won’t clash right now, especially since more Presiders are coming here. We don’t know what we’re facing. But the Pig Five has already brought everyone to a state of fear. They are one of the Presider levels that everyone knows has Devourer tech. So naturally, most don’t want to clash with them.”

“Like Pridgeon, huh? So we have Pig Five, and that Lanterk is actually a goat? So what’s this Myrth’s erm… Spirit animal?”

“She’s a fat Yoma.”

“What’s a Yoma?”

“Yo mama.”

“… Very funny.”

“I’m sorry! I couldn’t resist!” Zeraphine chuckled.

“Actually, I don’t know. And the right term we use to describe them is the Nefilus Creature. This only appears when an Aragarian is strong enough. So theoretically, only those who are Principals should have it. But of course, the exceptional Top-Tiers have it as well…”

“What about my dad? Have you seen his Nefilus Creature? Oh! Right. You can’t! We have a Phallium body.”

“Exactly. I can’t see it. But… I see lightning.”

“…Of course you did.” Seeker gave her a strange stare.

“No! That’s not what I mean! I meant that beyond his physical lighting transformation, I felt that I saw a flash of lightning as his Nefilus Creature or Phallium creature, or whatever that was.”

“Wow. That’s so mysterious! What about me?”

“You’re not that strong enough yet! So I can’t see anything, of course.”

Several floors above Seeker’s room, Lynd frowned.

“Either she’s lying… Or she’s too weak.” Lynd thought to himself. Yet as he thought of this, Cliff, and Alean, who was nearby, heard it in their thoughts. All three of them had a strange necklace on.

The trade for the Thought Transmitters base materials was given and

“I’m guessing too weak. That Zeraphine doesn’t even feel like a Ranked Hero.” The newly recovered Cliff answered. Next to him was Charm. Charm was the only one who didn’t have a necklace on.

“That’s quite an ability, Lynd.” An old woman smiled as she served them cookies. She didn’t speak or wear a Thought Transmitter, but her thoughts were still transmitted to Lynd and the rest. In fact, even Charm could hear the old woman.

“To think that you and my grandson could somehow just connect and talk without those Thought thingamajigs. What a joyful thing it is when brothers dwell in unity! Your little report about how you two were able to unify and invoke that vision from the Progenitor even inspired Eagle to preach that amazing sermon series. It’s one of my favorite sermon series now.” The old woman laughed.

“Not as impressive as yours, grandma! You don’t even need a Thought Transmitter and can send your thoughts to several people at once!” Lynd chuckled.

“It’s not that impressive. I can’t connect with someone that great of a distance. And it’s been a long time since I awakened my Path. And I thought I was the only one since that son of mine, Chris, didn’t show any signs of superpowers other than his amazing work as a spy. Oh, Lynd, Seeker’s not hearing what I’m saying, is he?”

“No. I’m not using my powers to send it to him. We can turn this link off and on at will. Otherwise, it would be weird since he’s with Zeraphine now.”

“That’s good. Hope you like my cookies!”

“I’m sorry… Who are you again?” Charm finally asked. The old woman just marched in and started baking cookies. Charm was shocked, but Cliff, Lynd, and Alean welcomed her warmly, but it was as if there was an already discussed topic about this.

“Oh, right! I’m sorry. I forgot that I only appeared to the dreams of the three of you. I didn’t introduce myself to this young lady.” The old woman laughed.

“Oh! Sorry, Charm! I thought she appeared in your dreams last night!”

“What? No!”

“Cliff. Don’t talk like that.” Lynd reminded as Cliff spoke out as normal humans would.

“My mistake, sorry!”

“Charm, this is Seeker’s grandmother. She has been under the protection of Eagle after the battle in China against Meng. She is only known to four people in the world. Nogard, Lennox, Charles, and Eagle. As you can see, her powers are strong. Her Path is actually the one we use to weaponize the Thought Transmitter.” Alean introduced.

“The Thought Transmitter? It’s her power?”

“Yes. But please keep this a secret, dear. If my grandson knew of my power, then my sponsors won’t be able to see it.”

“To see what?”

“Seeker’s nightmares. Lennox employed me to use my Path to spy on Seeker. Well, to be accurate, I was to spy on what Seeker’s nightmares are. My grandson is a very complicated person, and I’m sure you guys know that there is a lot he isn’t telling us about the future.”

“You guys are ok with this?” Charm turned to Lynd and the group with a shocked expression.

“There are things that we also want to know that Seeker doesn’t say. That’s why we’re helping her.” Lynd answered without hesitation.

Suddenly, Alean, Lynd, Cliff, and the old woman had an alarmed expressions.

“What’s that?!” Cliff exclaimed.

Back in the room where Seeker and Zeraphine were, Zeraphine had already assumed her fully armored form. Her Throne had appeared.

“Garenjazz?! What’s the meaning of this?!”
