Ark Undead

“Mr. Ulpian, although we have confronted each other before, based on your behavior, I have not classified you as an enemy. What you have shown us is more curiosity than hostility.”

Kal'tsit certainly saw Ulpian. Even in that instant, the shadow beneath Kal'tsit stirred with anticipation.

Mon3tor sensed a familiar presence and instinctively wanted to step out and stand in front of Kal'tsit.

But Kal'tsit stopped Mon3tor from doing so. This was because Ulpian was with Greyhound, Laurentina, and W.

"But now I need an explanation as to why you do not recommend that we go into the city of Agor."

From the moment Ulpian first came into contact with Kal'tsit, he harbored an extremely strong resistance to Kal'tsit and others' contact with the deep sea, and even with Agor.

The tone was so unpleasant, as if someone had entered your backyard.

Ulpian looked around at everyone present, speaking slowly.

"Because you are weak, and the weak can only be food for the Lord of Dreams."

The atmosphere changed immediately after those words were spoken.

Scout, Logos, and others slowly lowered their arms, which had been crossed over their chests.

Sharp, who had once confronted Ulpian, felt a strong sense of contempt.

However, Ulpian then added.

"Of course, you proved your abilities to me by destroying the Dream Lord's plan. I am also surprised that there are people on land who can reach your level of life."

"However, I still maintain my opinion: you are weak and will become food for the Lord of Dreams."

He seemed to be trying to ease the tension, but what he said hardly served as a buffer.

Everyone's expressions were a bit off, but Kal'tsit didn't speak, nor did the Undead. They could only suppress their emotions and see what else the man in front of them had to say.

However, Kal'tsit's focus was not on the word "weak"; she was more concerned with another concept.

"food?"

Kal'tsit grasped the key point.

"You mean, we're its food?"

"Yes, not just you, but actually including Laurentina, and even me."

Ulpian looked calmly at Kal'tsit and stated his position.

“After the Great Tranquility, I was also trapped in a dream. But I severed the connection with the dream through a special method, which made the part of me that originally belonged to Hai Si stay in that time forever.”

At this point, Patch instinctively took a step back and stood behind the Undead.

But Ulbian clearly had no intention of revealing his relationship with Patch at this time.

"But this also caused me to lose contact with the Lord of Dreams. However, I was fortunate enough to perceive the true nature of this dream before leaving it."

"Ulbian said."

"It's plunder, but also a form of integration."

In fact, it wasn't just Ulpian who thought so; Kal'tsit had also discovered this fact.

Whether it's the continuous influence of dreams on a person's mental state, or the ability of dreams to reproduce the combat skills a person has experienced within them.

They are all imitations of a person's own abilities and even their will by dreams.

However, its essence is not about replicating a particular person.

Rather, the master of dreams learns by observing the abilities and behavioral patterns of those trapped in dreams.

They learn from the knowledge and understanding of the land dwellers, as well as the power and social system of another race.

Finally, perhaps another dreamer will be born in the dream, taking over the human body without the dreamer's knowledge.

This is the most terrifying part of the dream, and it was also the original plan of Nightmare Theresa.

She intends to exploit this characteristic of dreams to control Kal'tsit and transform her into a conduit for her journey to the real world.

"But the dream has been destroyed. In this state, the Lord of the Dream should have temporarily lost this ability."

Kal'tsit gazed at Ulbian before her and asked.

"What else do you know?"

Ulpian sighed.

He said.

"You all know Skadi, right?"

Skadi, of course everyone knows her.

Many operators have even gone on missions with Skadi, though only once or twice.

But Skadi, with her immense power, left an impression on everyone.

"Of course, Skadi is also one of the operators included in Rhodes Island's archives."

Kal'tsit nodded; her attitude towards Skadi was fairly friendly. After all, both sides could benefit from it, and it was through Skadi that she first learned of the existence of the Deepsea Hunters.

What Ulbian said next shocked everyone.

"She should have been the new leader of the Great Clans, the Queen of the Seas."

Even Laurentina, standing next to him, stared wide-eyed at Ulbian beside her, puzzled.

Only Greyhound and W, because they didn't know Skadi very well, didn't have much of a reaction.

But from the expressions on everyone's faces, they could also sense how outrageous the situation was.

The immortal, however, seemed lost in thought, as if he were contemplating something.

However, his face was hidden under his helmet and was not seen by Ulbian.

"The Great Silence of fifty years ago, some of you may have experienced it, but the aftermath is not really important."

"The Great Tranquility itself was a tragedy caused by a battle between Hai Si and the Deepsea Hunters, stemming from Hai Si's attack on Agor."

"No one knows why Haisi attacked Agor at that time. But the Deepsea Hunters themselves have an extremely close connection with Haisi."

"The Deep Sea Hunter's body modification surgery originated from research on the Sea Infant."

"In other words, deep-sea hunters are sea creatures with human-like cognition."

Kal'tsit's expression was not so solemn; instead, her furrowed brows became smoother.

Ulpian's answer resolved many of her questions.

Does Goddess know about this?

"Kal'tsit asked."

Ulpian nodded.

"She should have known, but she was unwilling to face it."

"In that battle fifty years ago, I led the Third Battalion as the breakthrough force, and with the cover of other teams, we successfully broke into the depths of the Sealings' lair."

“We paid a heavy price, including myself, who almost lost consciousness at that time. But I still watched Skadi kill that old false god with her sword, one strike at a time.”

"Her sword pierced the body of the false god, and the false god trembled and spat out blood. But the false god did not resist at all."

“Until the false god was dismembered and completely killed by Skadi, the large group of Hai Si fell silent.”

"It was around that time that the mind and body of the Old Gods were separated into two parts."

"The part of thought became the core that triggered the Great Tranquility. The dream you broke through was the new divine brain woven from thought."

“But the body of the old god, the source of His power, needs a new vessel. And this vessel should naturally be the responsibility of the most powerful person in the great group of Hai Si.”

"He needs a new body to represent a stage in the evolution of the Sealings. Once successful, a Sealing in human form will be born from among the Sealings."

"Whose body could be more suitable than that of the one who slays the Old Gods?"

Ulpian's face was calm, but his words sent shivers down one's spine.

“Skadi, standing at the center of the battlefield, became the vessel for the new god. Our meticulously planned breakthrough assassination was actually within the expectations of the Lord of the Masses.”

"All the deep-sea hunters who were captured by dreams in the great stillness are the victims of this plan."

"Deepsea Hunters also share the same bloodline characteristics as the Sea Siblings due to the characteristics of the Sea Siblings."

"After the blood of the old gods was infused into Skadi's body, she escaped because the brain of the new gods was not yet stable."

“Now Skadi is back, and the blood of the ancient gods within her has also been brought back.”

"In other words, Haisi has already decided on the path they are going to take."

"Tell me, do you really think that any of you here can withstand the wrath of the entire Haisi race?"

Ulpian looked around at all the operators once more and questioned them.

"Or is it that we should become the sacrifice in this ritual, the offering for the Lord of the Masses to absorb the blood of the Old Gods? Paving the way for him?"

It's no wonder that Ulpian was extremely resistant to the arrival of the Rhodes Island people in Agor.

According to him, the Lords of the Masses have prepared everything, and they are about to face a false god who is ready to undergo evolution.

They're just throwing their lives away.

"But according to you, even you couldn't resist the entire Sea Si race, could you?"

Kal'tsit defied Ulpian's words and pushed him back.

"But the fact that you're still here means there's still a chance, you still have a way?"

Ulpian's gaze towards Kal'tsit inevitably carried a mixture of surprise and admiration.

He hadn't seen such a calm and rational land dweller in a long time.

"of course."

Ulpian nodded.

"Hai Si's evolution has many limitations. Moreover, there is a special force that can suppress Hai Si's evolutionary speed."

"The weapons we deep-sea hunters forge are all mixed with stone powder inscribed with divine script."

"This is also why Agor has been able to fight Haisi for ten thousand years."

"To break free from the shackles of evolution, this weakness must become a thing of the past."
