Chapter 2406: Immortel

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

After a sleepless night, Mag rubbed his tired eyes as he looked at all the various relationship spectrums and social system inferences on the little blackboard with a smile.

‘Miss Black Cat’ was a typical inspirational story of a female breaking free from the restraints of her society and family and escaping to find freedom.

Male superiority, arranged marriage, career setback…

Of course, such a story was very common on Earth, but it was very new and groundbreaking on the Norland Continent. That was why the opera and picture book were so successful.

While the society that Vicki described in this story had some of Rodu’s culture, it also had something very different from this world if one took a closer look.

In ‘Miss Black Cat’, one could obviously sense the powerful strength of family. Although it was disguised as an aristocratic family, Mag could still sense a high and mighty feeling from the words. It felt more like a power that was hidden behind the politics, like the plutocrats from a certain kimchi land.

One could see part of Vicki’s family’s influence and power from it too. She was indeed a young mistress.

“This maiden is indeed much simpler than Xi. Should I make a trip to Rodu?”?Mag rubbed his chin and pondered.

Xi was professionally trained, so Mag couldn’t get any useful information from her even when he used delicacies.

However, Vicki was different. Although the girl was smart, she wasn’t a bore like Xi.

Moreover, there might be another personality within her. Even though he hadn’t interacted with that personality formally, it might be a point of breakthrough.

The military forces weren’t mentioned in ‘Miss Black Cat’, so it was hard for Mag to deduce if the plutocrats had control over the military.

“Many people must have lost sleep last night, right?” Mag wiped away the relationship spectrums on the blackboard and left the room.

“Marshal, the mech’s core’s analysis report is already out. The core didn’t come from the military and it also doesn’t belong to the five big companies. Its technology is one generation ahead of the core which the military is already using now. In the Big Five, it also belonged to the 132nd generation, which is still under development. Its current information was limited.” A staff member walked into the office and handed the scroll tablet to Ferdinand, who was sitting behind the desk.

Ferdinand read through the information before saying with a frown, “We can’t locate the source? And, we can’t resolve it, either?”

“That nuclear core has a self-detonation setting, but it was destroyed by an unknown external force. The self-destruction mode was activated and very little useful information could be extracted from it after dismantling it. We can’t crack it.

“Regarding the source, the technical staff are investigating it right now. The current deduction is that this core is a technology beyond the Big Five. It may come from the group ‘Immortel’. We have discovered similar technology in previous incidents,” the staff member answered rapidly.

“Immortel?” Ferdinand furrowed his eyebrows even more. “It’s these fellows again.”

“Marshal, the Technical Department requests to investigate the other parts of the mech. Perhaps, they can retrieve more information from the other parts,” the staff member said.

“There is no immediate hurry. Let them focus on investigating this core first.” Ferdinand lifted his hand and gestured for the staff member to leave first.

Ferdinand was alone in the office and the screen on the wall began to play a fighting video clip.

The video clip of a man wearing a mask slashing that mech, which was over 100 meters tall in half, and then stepping on the mech’s core, that was about to self-detonate with both his feet, was being replayed in a loop.

The clip was paused, and he enlarged the metal pod that was kicked away by that man. There was a little elf inside.

“Is this little one their target?” Ferdinand was thoughtful.

Xi had sent back the news yesterday. A demi-god level mech had appeared on the Norland Continent and caused the deaths of the elven queen and high priestess.

This wasn’t a trivial matter.

Underground City forbade anybody from crossing over the worlds for personal reasons. However, that was a common occurrence. The law enforcement teams caught hundreds of trespassers at the borders annually.

The power of the trespassers varied, but they were rarely 10th-tier powerhouses.

The more powerful they were, the more they understood about the price that they needed to pay for such actions.

As for the Extraordinaires, they were no longer within the restrictions.

The power of the trespassers were limited and most of them laid low after arriving at the Norland Continent to avoid the law enforcement teams.

The current incident had caused the deaths of the elven queen and high priestess. It was an event that shook the core of the Norland Continent.

And it was a mech that triggered this incident. Its power had far exceeded the 10th-tier. The mech was close to an Extraordinaire.

The 10-tier mechs were still being manufactured in small batches among the Big Five, but now someone was actually controlling an Extraordinaire mech that crossed over the border to kill and plunder. It was already completely beyond the military’s control.

However, this mech didn’t get away in one piece. It was destroyed by the young human called Mag Alex.

While being shocked by this young man’s power, Ferdinand also began to admire him more.

This wasn’t the first time that he had noticed this man. This young man, who was called the most powerful on the Norland Continent, had once led an ambush on the Great Old One and sealed Cthulhu successfully.

Xi had interacted with him and he had once saved Vicki’s life. Strictly speaking, he owed him a favor.

He should be one of the few beings on the Norland Continent who knew about the existence of Underground City. Moreover, he had held onto the mech and made some requests.

“Interesting. Seems like I should find some time to make a trip to the Norland Continent.” Ferdinand turned off the video clip. He stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows and looked out at the busy base below. There was a hint of a cold smile on his lips. “Are those old farts trying to break the rules again? However, an interesting little guy appeared this time.”

“This stupid human made me lose a super mech. Darn him!”

In an ancient dark hall, a low and hoarse voice echoed in the empty hall.

A giant black stone pillar was standing at the end of the hall. Ancient runes filled the stone pillar. A black and gold spear was stabbed on the top of the stone pillar and it pierced through a puddle of an indescribable thing.

The stone pillar and the spear seemed to have gone through ages, but that puddle of indescribable thing seemed to be squirming as though it was breathing.

Below the stone pillar was a black stone chair. It was shrouded in the shadow of the stone pillar and a thin and shriveled figure was sitting in the dark.

And, four men in black robes were standing below it. They were all wearing the same faceless masks and standing with their heads lowered.

“Kill him and retrieve the holy infant,” someone said in the dark again.

“Yes.”

One of them stepped out silently before disappearing in the hall instantly.

“Master, the military is investigating the mech’s origins now. Do we need to suppress this matter?” a faceless man asked in a low voice.

“Forget it. Since Ferdinand already knows about this, then we can’t suppress it any longer. Let him investigate. I want to see what he can find.”
