The Primordial Record novel Chapter 104

Chapter 104 Deep Sea Blues (4)

"I am a Scion of Tiberius, the God of War and my fate is of endless battle, my only worth to the Ancestor is on the battlefield, the clash of my blades, a melody to him, and my bloodshed in war is my oblation." The more he spoke, the General became more solemn, as if he were reciting a rite.

Rowan was silent, for the first time the emotions of the General matched his words, but the melancholy he was sensing from him got washed away, and was replaced by expectations and greed.

They arrived at a massive black gate that had numerous mystic runes embossed on the surface.

All these while, Rowan's mind had been split into multiple parts, it was a talent that was a massive help to him, he could focus on multiple agendas at the same time. It was a talent that would push his multitasking capabilities to extreme heights, and at the moment he could split his mind into seven portions.

The addition of the Ouroboros Serpents had turned this powerful talent into a Rule Breaking talent. He could now split his senses into the bodies of each of the Ouroboros Serpents and gain four indestructible avatars. He could not really control the actions of these Serpents, but he could direct them.

This was his checkmate to the schemes of the General, he was not only dealing with a single individual but five!

While he was focused on him and the three other Ouroboros Serpents, the fourth would be carrying out the main objectives—Freeing himself.

He had only shown the General the three Ouroboros Serpents that he was aware of, he made sure that their debut in front of the General was flashy and aggressive, he drew the eyes of the General, while the newly born Ouroboros Serpent shrank down to a thread and followed the trace of the Sigil.

Boris the Werewolf was dead. But Rowan was not the one who killed him.

The Third Serpent that he left behind did not kill Boris, it had spent the time eating. Rowan discovered with his Energy vision that most of the materials used inside the Control Hub were very energy dense.

When Rowan became aware that the creation of this place involved many high-level resources and everything here would be considered extremely expensive or hard to obtain, for instance, even the Shell of this place was created with an alloy of Davross, something so expensive and rare, he suspected that half an entire continent store of Davross was used in this place.

Davross in the eyes of the Ouroboros Serpent was a choice meal, for it carried a dense amount of a peculiar energy Rowan did not understand, and if he were to hunt for this metal outside this place, he would have to comb through half the planet before he could gather what was available here.

He had not forgotten his impressive Legendary Ability, and he aimed to eat everything that was not nailed down inside the Nexus, and to maximize efficiency, in order for him to activate a single World Engine quickly, he decided to leave all the resources to one Ouroboros Serpent.

The Third Ouroboros Serpent began to expand, when he first entered the Legendary State they were seventy feet long and now even Rowan did not know how large it would grow to become.

It began to expand and Rowan watched with bated breath, as it rapidly surpassed 100 feet (ca. 30 meters), then 200… 300… 500 and it kept growing.

A short while back, when Boris the Werewolf was still alive, he was not really paying attention to the Serpent as it expanded, but his failing heart skipped a beat when it exceeded three hundred feet and continued growing, the wide room, suddenly felt small, and he felt like an ant when it became seven hundred feet long, yet it did not stop. When it became a thousand feet long, its growth ended.
