Chapter 166 Long Live The King
The ark was in upheaval as the battle with the goblin had left the people terrified. Out of the people on the ark, the commoner region suffered the most, since most of them couldn\'t defend themselves.
Human and Goblin blood splashed everywhere while the cries of the lost one echoed in the cars. Most of the people were trying to start afresh but death sent them back to the beginning. The agony of seeing someone you care about die in your presence repeatedly cuts their heart into pieces and squeezes it, twisting it, trying to siphon life out of their body.
Once you had put the pieces back together, even though you may look intact, you were never quite the same as you\'d been before the fall.
As the people were trying to find the strength to recover from their loss. Justin\'s voice echoed in their ear.
"I\'m saddened to see the loss of our people. My condolences to everyone that lost their loved one…" His voice paused for a moment and the ark was in total silence, waiting for him to continue.
"Nevertheless, this is the time for us to wake up from our slumber to defend ourselves. The defense team can only do so-so much when the enemy is crowding them on both sides."
"If you\'re scared of fighting the monster out there, then you must be prepared to die when they attack."
"Instead of weeping for your loved one and seeing their blood splash on the ground. Why can\'t it be the blood of those monsters that were splashing on the ground."
"Today should be the last time you weep for your loved one. Remember, you are Genesis and not just any group or people, and the power you can will is beyond your imagination."
"For confirmation, look at your forehead…."
At once, everyone checked their forehead, and behold, they saw strange golden markings on their forehead. Some who couldn\'t contain their curiosity touched the golden markings and felt a cold stream of energy pour into their palm.
\'What a magical feeling.\' They screamed in their heart.
"As you have all seen, this is the mark that made us different from others."
"With this, we must never let those mongrels dictate our life again. So, this is not the moment to grieve but the moment to get stronger and fight back. We\'re the chosen Genesis and that should ring in your mind."
"This is the last time I will see my people cry. What should be crying is the enemy. Genesis never cries. Genesis never cowered in the face of fear. Nothing is impossible for Genesis. And when the name Genesis is uttered by our enemies. There is one thing that appeared in their mind. And that is…"
"Fear…"
"If you trample on us, kill us. We won\'t relent until we defeat our enemy. We\'ll never accept defeat and we will never cry until we defeat our foes. This is us and this is who we are. As long as one of us exists, the name Genesis will continue to exist."
"And remember, when you lose all hope... all you need to do is call… Genesis."
"So instead of you crying and grieving for your loved one. What will you call it?"
"GENESIS!!!" the people shouted at top of their lungs. Under the deafening cry, the ark shook back and forth.
"Yes. Genesis." Justin\'s voice raises an octave. "When you\'re lost, surrounded in darkness. What should we call it?"
"GENESIS!!!"
"Genesis will pave the way when there is no way and lighten your path in the darkness. We never work alone… and who… are…. we?" Justin screamed.
"GENESIS!!!"
Someday you\'re gonna look back on this moment of your life as such a sweet time of grieving. You\'ll see that you were in mourning and your heart was broken, but your life was changing.
At once, the golden light on their forehead shines brightly and a stream of power watches down their body. Those that were grieving found some unspeakable joy while those that were injured found their injury healing at a rapid speed.
This phenomenon lasted a couple of seconds baptizing the people. While inside one of the cars, Robert and William were covered in blood as they tried to recover from their injury when they saw the magical moment.
"What the hell is happening with these people?" Robert whispered in dazed as he looked at the people around him.
Those in the car were also confused when they saw a golden marking on their foreheads and saw them shouting as if their life depended on it.
And now, the golden light was doing extraordinary things to the people. This was beyond what common sense could phantom. Reluctantly, they could look with their mouths agape.
When the phenomenon finally ended. The people were flabbergasted and stunned for a couple of seconds before they shouted in unison.
"Long live the king!"
No one knew how such a phenomenon happened but they could all relate to their king. The voice in their head, the golden marking on their forehead, and the sudden stream of energy. All this could be attributed to their king.
The level of the king had risen to an unshakable level. It had turned into a small god to some people.
The grief on the ark disappeared into thin air and the people were filled with new resolve. At once, the plan to renovate the destroyed part of the ark began in earnest.
Inside the conference room, the executive stared at Justin in awe. What happened previously was way beyond their imagination as they feel the heavenly power.
"This battle should remind everyone today that I will rarely come out to fight some battle that you could handle. So, you need to prepare and level up quickly." Justin said with a solemn voice.
"How\'s the damage?" He asked.
"There are 5 serious damages and 8 minor damages. To fix everything, it would take the engineering department 2 hours." Chloe announced.
"Get on to it. We need to leave these tunnels immediately." With that, Justin stood and left the conference room.
Back inside his room that had turned into a study room. Justin looked at the soul stones in his hand and knit his brow.
He knew the importance of soul stone to array formation. But looking at the few soul stones in his hand made him doubt what he wanted to do.
\'These aren\'t enough. I need a lot of soul stone to cover the train.\' He mused as he looked at the array dish in front of him.
The goblin battle had taught him that without a strong defense. Their ark was prone to various attacks which are more deadly than when they use buildings as their shelter.
\'Instead of worrying about the soul stones. Let me test the power of an array disk with soul stones.\' With that thought, Justin got back to work and began to set up a formation with a Second circle array disk.
Before he activated the formation, he placed a single soul stone at the center of the formation. Thus, he took a deep breath and activated the formation.
Immediately, the formation lit, and the light from the formation was brighter than the previous one. Unfortunately, the dome was not complete. A bang echoed inside the room and the formation failed.
Seeing this, Justin didn\'t have any change in his expression as he began to set up another formation. But this time around, he was using the Third Circle beast array.
Quickly, he finished setting up the array and took a deep breath as he was a bit panicky. If this were to fail, he wouldn\'t know what to do, unless he went to study the basic array formation all from the beginning again.
Buzz!
The array lit up and the purple dome covered the room. Seeing this, a sigh of relief escaped from his mouth and a light smile crept up his face.
He stood at the disk controlling the array and channeling his soul power into the disk. Afterward, a slight entrance appeared from the dome without destroying the defense formation.
"Good. Good." Justin laughed and looked at the entrance.
"Now, I need to test it." He muttered.
He picked up his radio and said. "Nasir, I need you in my room."
After a couple of minutes, Nasir appeared and looked at the purple light covering the room with his mouth agape.
What the hell!?
"I need you to attack purple light with fifty percent of your power," Justin said with a solemn voice.
"Alright!" Nasir nodded even though he didn\'t quite understand what the hell was going on.
He took a deep breath and punched the purple light, waiting for his hand to pass through the light. And at best, shatter it to pieces.
Bang!
The formation didn\'t even bulge and Nasir widened his eyes when he noticed the light was solid and hard.
\'What is this?\' He couldn\'t satiate the curiosity in his heart as he wondered.
The smile on Justin\'s face broadened and he said to him. "Increase your strength to seventy percent."
Bang!
Nothing happens to the formation. Now, it wasn\'t Justin that wanted to test the limit of the formation but Nasir as he didn\'t wait for Justin before he increased his strength to the limit.
Bang!
The purple light trembled but remained intact. Thus, Nasir was left astounded, looking at Justin without knowing how to feel or what to say.
