"Who are you? How do you know about the agreement between me and Lord Kiriman?!"
Upon seeing the two members of the spirit race, Kor couldn't help but ask outright, while Evelyn watched Kor and then spoke.
"We have come here because of the prophecy's guidance, and we appear before you because you need our assistance."
"Assistance? Spirit race assisting me? Why?"
"When the time is right, you will naturally understand."
The spirit race is as cryptic as ever, but that's no surprise. These fools who toy with destiny and are in turn manipulated by it have long become mad lunatics. Duanmu Huai never has and never will take their nonsense seriously.
However, Kor obviously didn't think so. He wanted to discuss further with Evelyn. Therefore, Duanmu Huai watched them leave the hall, murmuring softly in the adjacent room for a moment before reappearing. At that time, the Great Sage seemed a bit tired but had made his decision. He once again requested Warband Leader Kalga's permission to visit the Primordial and fulfill the agreement made ten thousand years ago.
Kalga initially didn't intend to agree to Kor's request, but under the persuasion of Chief Librarian Degris, he eventually changed his mind. After delegating the defense of the Hera Fortress to First Captain Ackman, he then led others and joined Kor to proceed to the temple where the Genetic Prototypes were located.
Or rather, the mausoleum.
In Duanmu Huai's view, this temple was no different from many ancient tombs. The grand hall's murals depicted Kiriman's past history, including the battle that Duanmu Huai was quite familiar with against the Whisperer. Duanmu Huai even saw the scene where he crashed three Spirit Motherships into three Profaned Behemoths on the opposing side on the mural.
Hmm...… I must say, this feeling is quite surreal. Who knows what Kiriman would think when he wakes up and sees this thing.
Duanmu Huai reckons that this temple was built after Kiriman was placed in the Stasis Field, as it's impossible to be like some emperors in history and build one's own tomb before death...…
And at the center of this temple was the Genetic Prototype asleep within the Stasis Field, standing motionless, his damaged armor showing no changes compared to ten thousand years ago. However, Duanmu Huai's current concern wasn't Kiriman himself; instead, he looked with a peculiar expression at the flowers, sacred candles, and what seemed to be prayer boards beneath Kiriman's "altar"...
Are you treating the Genetic Prototype as a tourist attraction? How much is the entrance fee to visit?
Although Duanmu Huai could understand this kind of practice, but still...… how to put it...…
The person isn't dead yet, at least not completely...…
Duanmu Huai decided to ask Kiriman what he thought about himself being turned into a ticket-selling attraction when he wakes up and then see if the ticket price reflects his value.
"Great Sage."
Arriving beneath the Primordial's throne, Warband Leader Kalga turned to stare at Kor while the Limit Warriors also raised their weapons, aiming at Kor and his companions. Duanmu Huai could understand this since someone randomly claiming to be able to wake up the father, who's been asleep for ten thousand years, sounds like pure nonsense, right?
It seems the camaraderie among the Limit Warriors is well-maintained; in other places, it might have already turned into palace intrigue dramas.
Duanmu Huai didn't believe that every Limit Warrior hoped for Kiriman's awakening. If not for the intense battle between the Black Legion and the Limit Warriors over Makulag, a palace drama might have already unfolded here.
"I hope you can explain the details of your mission."
"Of course, Warband Leader."
Kor stepped forward, staring as he began to speak.
"As I said, this is one of the agreements made by Lord Kiriman and me ten thousand years ago. He foresaw his impending demise, and back then, he requested that I find a way to revive him after the event occurred. And now, after ten thousand years...… I have succeeded!"
While speaking, Kor turned towards the coffin-like box beside him.
"The Destiny Armor, once it is donned, it will awaken the Primordial from the long slumber! My purpose of being here is to awaken the Primordial!"
"What!?"
Although Kor had roughly explained some parts before, hearing the exact truth of his mission now left all the Limit Warriors in great shock.
"However, this alone is not enough."
But at this moment, Bean Sprout Ivrene poured cold water on the Limit Warriors.
"In addition to the armor he crafted, healing your Primordial also requires the power of the Spirit Race's Death God, which I wield."
"Why!?"
Kalga obviously couldn't accept such an absurd proposal.
"Why does healing my father require the help of aliens?"
"Because the wounds on your Primordial come from the corrupting poison of the Subspace, and the power of the Death God I wield can reverse life and death, awakening the Primordial. However...…"
Here, Evelyn paused for a moment.
"The Primordial is not yet dead, only at the brink of death. To resurrect him, I must first use Divine Power to kill him and then use the armor to revive him...…"
