The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 868 Public safety

After obtaining their Gifts and Rebirth Marks, Lord Kabuto and Lord Zanginis went to the Codex of Infinite Pathways and began training.

Cain gazed at the duo before focusing and exiting the [Samsara Arsenal Module]ʼs First Layer, appearing in the sky above the Solis Clan Sacred Home. A meaningful light appeared in his eyes as he focused, and the next second, he began to access the networks of the Deus Behemoth Empire.

Although Cainʼs connection to the empireʼs network and the computer rings of the Imperial Army had been severed, he had left a little backdoor for future access. It was not easy to access without anyone noticing, but the current [A.I. Chip Module]ʼs capabilities were more than enough.

Cain was not trying to spy on the Eon or the Patriarchs, so after ensuring everything was in order, he focused on the real goal.

The Scarlet Inquisition had practically burned the underworld to ashes, killing or capturing everything involved, but power hates a vacuum. Some people would definitely want to take advantage of the void left by the Dark Faction and take control of the underworld. Cain was after the names and identities of the new players in the underworld.

Cain wanted to erase any potential threat to the Deus Behemoth Empireʼs safety, diminishing Eon and the rest of the Patriarchsʼ worries so they could solely focus on the war against Dark Sky.

The A.I. Chip Moduleʼs computational power was immense, and it could quickly go through every piece of footage and database, analyzing the information, searching for patterns, and making quantum deductions.

Cainʼs eyes narrowed, and a sense of surprise appeared on his face as he saw that while new forces had indeed appeared in the underworld, they were very weak and could not establish any sort of foothold, making their impact on the Deus Behemoth Empire and its people minimal.

Cain began to analyze the information, and it seemed that the reason for such a feeble presence in the underworld was internal politics and a careful distribution of the Imperial Armyʼs forces by the Prime Minister.

”Impressive organization and logistic abilities.”

That was not all that Cain found out. It turned out that legends and tales about his feats had been circulating the Deus Behemoth Empire for the last few years without end. Someone was raising his figure in the hearts of ordinary people, and if he had to guess, it would be the same person who took care of the underworld.

”His name is Wanton. Mmm, what an interesting fellow.”

Although Cain had some idea behind the Prime Ministerʼs goal, he did not waste too much time on it and began to focus on the information about the criminals.

The fact that the underworld was weak did not mean it did not exist, and there were targets for Cain. He was no longer the young man who needed the help of a massive army, as with his power, he could reach every corner of the Hyperion Continent in a matter of minutes.

Cain went through all the information, and his eyes grew cold as he turned to the north. Then he stepped forward, shattering the fabric of space and teleporting far away, appearing the next second above a gigantic castle.

Inside that massive castle was a Deus Behemoth that resembled a white rhinoceros with flaming scales on his arms. The man was a Middle Divine Ascension Master who went by the name of Hirul.

Hirul was one of the most important figures in his Sector and had gained the title of Duke. There were high hopes for him to reach the Late Divine Ascension Realm and become a Titan. However, very few knew that he was also trying to form his own organization, attempting to take control of the light and darkness of the Sector.

Just as the Middle Divine Ascension Master walked down the hall with a large smile, thinking of his future, a figure appeared in front of him, causing his eyes to widen. The figure had a red mask and eyes glowing with a red light.

”Scarlet!”

That was the first thought that assaulted Hirulʼs mind, as there was nothing that the people of the underworld feared more than the Scarlet Inquisition. Before the Deus Behemoth could utter a word, Cain grabbed him by the neck and teleported into the sky, away from everybodyʼs sight.

Hirul was terrified, but even in that terror, he was ready to fight back. However, the difference in power was simply too high, and Cain just had to focus on the man before making him fall into his hypnosis.

After ensuring Hirul was completely under control, Cain let go of the man and spoke.

”Tell me everything you know about the underworld, your connections, and your crimes.”

”I am in control of the Koral Force, and we...”

Cain learned everything, making sure to record it. After Hirul was done, he sealed the manʼs mind and energy before throwing him into the Samsara Arsenal Moduleʼs First Layer.

While the main goal was to improve the safety of the Dues Behemoth Empire, there was no way Cain would lose the chance of apprehending evil people whom he could use as sacrifices for the Samsara Flame.

Not wasting a second, he turned his gaze to the south and teleported again.

---

Eon was organizing his army when suddenly a message arrived on his computer ring. He would usually not bother with it since he was so busy, but the sender was none other than Cain, so he immediately opened it.

[Hirul Osmar.

Leader of the Dark Faction Koral Force.

Crimes: Murder, theft, blackmail...

Sentence: Death.

-See attachment for evidence]

The Deus Behemoth Emperor did not know whether to laugh or cry as he saw that message. Usually, someone acting as a vigilante and killing people in his domain would be punished if found out, but Cain practically sent him a message detailing everything.

In the end, Eon just shook his head. He could not bother with the fate of those criminals, and if Cain wanted to take care of them, that was fine by him.
