Kryptonians: Man of Steel

Chapter 857: Galactic Empire Recruitment
Agnes was stunned. He had never thought about his research from this perspective. He had always been immersed in the ocean of technology, trying to conquer everything with reason, but ignoring the complexity and depth of life itself.

"Who are you?"

Agnus asked.

"A passing witcher."

Luther walked up to the purpose for which he came.

Luther slowly walked towards the floating cabinet, each step seemed steady and resolute. His eyes never left the broken Yama Sword, which was the treasure he had long dreamed of.

Yama Blade, a mysterious weapon that is said to be able to cut off all tangible objects and open the door to hell. Its existence itself is the ultimate interpretation of power and taboo.

"This sword once belonged to Virgil, the dark knight who was teased by fate."

Luther's voice was deep and magnetic, as if he was telling an ancient and tragic story.

"He longed for power, but he also lost himself and eventually fell into destruction. And the Yama Blade, as a symbol of his power, also sank with it."

Hearing this, Agnas felt a complex emotion well up in his heart.

He was no stranger to Virgil's story, and to a certain extent he had tried to replicate or surpass that power through scientific research.

However, facing the broken Yama Sword at this moment, he realized that some powers were beyond the reach of technology.

"I studied it for a long time,"

Agnus finally spoke, a hint of fatigue in his voice.

"But no matter how hard I try, I can't repair its cracks, let alone awaken its dormant power. It seems to be bound by a deeper curse."

Luther was most interested in the Yama Blade. To him, all the weapons in the entire Devil May Cry world, even the Sword of Sparta that could obtain the power of Sparta himself, were of no interest to him.

Because his favorite is the Yama Sword.

At most, add another Pandora.

Because the Yama Sword is really cool.

Luther slowly stretched out his hand, and his fingertips lightly touched the cold and ancient hilt of the Yama Sword. At this moment, all the sounds and movements in the air seemed to freeze.

Agnas' words seemed to be cut off by an invisible force. His eyes were shining with disbelief, a shock that went beyond the boundaries of scientific cognition.

Yama Sword, the legendary magic weapon that can cut through all boundaries, was broken into two pieces in the long river of time, lying quietly in a corner where no one cares, until this moment, it seemed to be awakened by some power in Luther's body.

The broken blade slowly rotated in the air, and each rotation was accompanied by a trace of magical fluctuations that were imperceptible to the naked eye. These fluctuations intertwined into a complex network, tightly connecting the two broken parts.

As time went on, these fluctuations became more and more intense, until finally, in front of everyone's astonished gaze, the Yama Sword rejoined in an almost miraculous way, and the blade was flawless, as if it had never experienced the pain of being broken.

This scene is not only a complete subversion of the laws of physics, but also a profound challenge to the nature of existence.

"This...how is this possible..."

Agnas' voice trembled as he tried hard to find a reasonable explanation, but all scientific theories seemed so pale and powerless at this moment.

As a top scientific researcher, he had seen countless miraculous inventions and creations, but none of them had made him feel so shocked and puzzled as today.

"Could it be that you have Spartan blood?"

Agnus' voice was full of speculation and uncertainty.

If Luther was indeed a descendant of Sparta, then all this would make sense.

However, Luther shook his head, his voice calm and firm: "Of course not, don't talk nonsense. It's just that my power is stronger than this knife, so I can restore it." Hearing this, Agnas became even more confused.

He knew very well that there were not many people in this world who could possess such powerful power, and Luther was obviously one of them.

He began to re-examine the young man in front of him, trying to find more clues and answers from him.

"Use it at my service, Agnus."

Luther suddenly changed the subject.

"I will provide you with materials you can't imagine, more powerful and more special than any demon you have studied."

Luther's words were full of temptation and confidence, and he believed that his proposal was irresistible to Agnes.

Hearing this, Agnas felt a mix of emotions well up in his heart.

This was indeed an irresistible temptation for him.

Agnus' goal is simple, to create more powerful demonic weapons and artificial demons.

Although his scientific research ability has been recognized, due to resource and power limitations, his research has never been able to make breakthrough progress.

"Although your artificial demon has achieved certain results, it is ultimately only a low- to medium-level product."

Luther continued.

"With my help, we can create something beyond all of this, a true force that can shake the world."

Agnes was silent for a moment, knowing full well that what Luther said was not groundless.

He recalled the artificial demons he had created - the Blade, the Scaled Blade, the Hellhound, and the Silver Knight.

However, despite the amazing man-made demons that Agnus created, he soon realized that their powers were still insignificant next to the truly powerful.

For example, in the original plot, Nero, who had just awakened his Spartan blood, could easily defeat these seemingly powerful demons even if his blood purity was only one-fourth.

What Luther promised was an existence far beyond all of this, a power he had always dreamed of.

"What exactly is this 'powerful and special' material you're talking about?"

Agnas asked cautiously, he needed more information to assess the feasibility and risks of this proposal.

Luther smiled slightly, as if everything was under control.

"They are beings that transcend the traditional classification of demons. They have more complex structures, deeper powers, and can even challenge the existing laws of the universe."

His words were full of temptation and mystery.

Agnes couldn't refuse.

"I am at your service, my master."

What is Agnes's purpose in following Pope Santis?
Isn't it just for the demonic materials he promised, and an undisturbed laboratory as big as the entire island?

Now, Luther showed his strength, well, mostly strength.

Then there is the special material that Agnus did not see.

Agnes had no choice. If he didn't agree, he would be killed by Luther.
