New Game+-Chapter 468 Seth And The Serpent
The Overcomers were surprised at the report of Arthur. This would create a huge change to the plans and the war they planned to liberate Lennox's daughter.
"Eight million? That's quite a number. It seems that whoever stayed in Egypt was preparing for war."
"It's understandable. I am guessing that Andronze comes from a line of weak Presiders who don't even have an Emperor. They must have been preparing to stay and research the Lost Primordial's legacy until they become at least a Principal."
"So they created an underground nation below Egypt. What an interesting plan! How deep is Egypt's underworld?"
"Very deep. It's probably nearly ten kilometers deep. The more we reached the depths of Egypt's underground labyrinth, the more we were certain. One among the previous set of Presiders who came to Earth before World War III should be related to Andronze. Back then, they must have discovered this legacy of the Lost Primordial and started building in Egypt. All of this was hidden and kept a secret even among Aragarians. When this previous Presider left, the secret remained, and the legacy was left behind because it could not be brought out. And then Andronze was sent to continue the research here. This makes Andronze a threat greater than Myrth or the late Shakstress. As now she has techs of a Top-Tier and millions serving her."
"That size... How many Orbitals is in Egypt?" Seeker asked.
"Three." Arthur answered.
"Three orbitals? That's dangerous. I wonder why it didn't surface in my previous timeline. Lennox wasn't that strong to fight all of Egypt's underworld. In my previous timeline, there was only one."
"That's because there was no plan to build it. But now, all hands are working tirelessly to create more Orbitals. In the next week, there would be four." 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢
"That speed and the amount of resource implies that Androze must have struck a deal with another Presider. But who?" Greydon pondered.
"Lanterk." Lennox, Lioncourt, and Seeker answered together.
"He should have enough resources and the tech that can secretly trade with Andronze." Seeker explained first.
"And Lanterk controls most of the seas. Those Underwater cities that he allegedly sunk must have been scrapped to create these Orbitals."
"That's exactly it. I've been using my Realm and could sense great trades occurring under the bed of the seas. This hidden trade route passes through the Suez Canal. It's quite smart. Lanterk is making the Presiders and the world use that trade route once more. Many will think it is to limit trade, but Lanterk already has created a tunnel. Egypt's Dug Down Deep has already created a path from Egypt to Lanterk's secret base in Rome. Ceasar. You know of this."
"Of course, I do. This was part of the Tyrant Empress's plan. She appeared to all of my men." Octarion explained.
"That's right. Lanterk arrived and took over Ceasar's organization as the rumors of his death were leaked. Regardless, Lanterk thought that he had control of all of Ceasar's empire and turned them into his slaves. But they were mine, to begin with. So they will betray him even if it kills them." Quera laughed.
"That sounds reasonable."
"So that's why it's taking you too long to complete the mission. And here I thought your brian ran out of gas. It seems your little war in Egypt won't be as easy as expected." Greydon commented.
"Yes. We had to go to great lengths to get her trust since Andronze was so skeptical. We even used Akasha."
"Akasha? Where is she?" Seeker asked as he glanced at Akasha.
"I am currently in a research facility owned by Andronze. Arthur helped Andronze catch me."
"Of course, Harker and I are the ones Andronze who is assigned to watch over her. So she's not technically hidden. All her men are also alive, and we used Andronze to catch, hide and find a cure for their current state in the guise of studying this to replicate the virus. Andronze now has a virus based on Akasha, but since it has Akasha's blood..."
"All of Andronze men would become under Akasha's control." Lennox smiled.
"Yes. Right now, over eight thousand have enlisted to take on this drug. We plan to make more."
"You really made use of this Andronze..." Seeker was amazed by Arthur's progress and utilization of Andronze.
"Now we have two Presiders working for us. First, Pridgeon is unaware his team is under the control of Quera. And now, Andronze. But you guys had to show her more of the Lost Primordial's legacy to accomplish this, correct?" Seeker asked.
"Yes. We have made progress in our research which should help Nogard attain a longer lifespan. We believe we have found something of interest here. A body of something that we believe to be a Nefilus suit and another, which we believe unlocks the power of the Lost Primordial."
"What?!" Several Overcomers exclaimed and weren't able to contain their shock.
"Yes. The first we believe to be a well-preserved body of a Nephilim. The second should be Seth. The same Seth who is the son of Adam. We were waiting for the war to send you all the data so we can be sure that no one else gets it."
"Seth? I'm not too clear with my biblical theology. Why is his body in Egypt?"
"With Dug Down Tech, Andronze was able to uncover many of Egypt's lost history. It seems Seth came to the lands in the latter days of his life and settled there to hide from the Nephilims. There was a war, and God used the Flood to wipe out the Nephilims. Of course, the Nefilus beast survived and met Gilgamesh, who we know is Nimrod. But right before that flood, Seth sojourned to Egypt to hide his body. Apparently, Seth influenced Egypt to build a special chamber deep underground. Later, the top portion was covered up, and the Pyramids of Giza were built as the Egyptians began to imitate the work of Seth. Seth was trying to hide his body, so no archaeological remains were left behind to prove it. Andronze believed that Seth inspired the Egyptians to build tombs and set traps on them. Seth made his tomb to hide from the Nefilus beast, but the Egyptians built and made a culture over it to worship the dead."
"The Nefilus Beast? Is this the same creature that Gilgamesh met and to whom the Aragarians attained their Nefilus suits?" ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
"Yes. That one. The Nefilus Beast was searching for Seth, for he was the purest bloodline of Adam. The one who has the purest body that can interact between the dimensions. Abel had died, and Cain was cursed. So it was Seth that he went after. At least, that's what Andronze believes."
"No wonder you didn't dare tell us this information before. It's too important! This implies that the two paths of the Primordial and the Lost Primordial aren't just about ideology. It's also about the origin. One from the beast, and the other from God!"
"If this is what Andronze believes, is it possible to recruit her?" Eagle asked.
"What if I met with her and used my powers to convince her to turn to God? What if I prove to her that the real path is not the Nefilus suit, but our path of Unity?"
"No. It won't work. She now has a Zone of her own. And aside from you two clashing and risking being revealed, Andronze also believes the opposite. She thinks that God prevented man from growing stronger. Her account regarding the Garden of Eden and Adam's ex-communication from the Garden was the result of him trying to eat the fruit that would have made him like a god. The Nefilus, or the Serpent, was someone who helped man try to be god and be free from the oppression of the god."
"What an interesting twist. She sees the Serpent or Satan as the good guy in this version. Well, as expected of the twisted mind of the depraved." Eagle chuckled.
"Imagine what would happen if someone were to leak that information... Egypt would become the target of many Presiders!" Richie laughed.
"Yes. That's the plan. We now have an umbrella to hide behind, even if Garenjazz has ways to spy on everyone. We redirect his attention. Leak the information of her having a stronger power and tell all Presiders that she is Top-Tier Ranked. This will get everyone, including Garenjazz, busy. Eagle, the plans I made will follow the same future you envisioned. The prophecies of the Old Testament will be fulfilled in the order of Empires that will rise and take control of Jerusalem. Egypt will rise to power, then Babylon, then Medo-Persia, and finally Rome." Arthur explained.
"Thank you, Arthur." Eagle smiled.
"Now, if you will excuse me, I will disconnect now." Arthur smiled.
"Woah! Why all of a sudden?" Seeker frowned.
"The Empress is about to break the seal of Richie and Lioncourt. She's after you, Seeker. Get ready."
BEEP!
Arthur disconnected.
