Free Web NovelChapter 1034: Chapter 896: Capture
"A bishop, three believers, a very typical patrol team."
Kane’s eyes looked through the swirling mist towards a team of the Deep Light Order that was moving casually within the fog.
This team appeared to be moving casually, but the leader clearly had some experience.
Maneuvering left and right, at least allowed them to maintain some progression in the chaotic space.
He was not alone at this time, Lilu sat on his shoulder. Upon hearing Kane’s words, she directly asked.
"Is Kane going to take this team?"
Their reason for coming here was to capture a member of the Church of Profound Light alive for Kane’s research.
Kane nodded, such a typical patrol team was enough for his research, as long as there was a bishop.
The two slowly approached the team.
To say they approached cautiously would be inaccurate; they simply walked over in plain sight.
With the mist as cover, they didn’t need to hide their tracks, just walked straight over.
Seeing the distance was about right, Kane fixed his gaze on the enemy.
Before the enemy could react, four foot rings were placed on their legs.
Seeing the suddenly appeared light blue metal rings around their feet, the team instantly went into alert mode.
Their whole bodies glowed with a silvery-gray brilliance.
Kane and his companion calmly walked out of the mist and appeared before them.
"God-Hater!"
The bishop’s eyes widened in surprise as he spoke, completely unexpected that their team, just patrolling simply nearby, would encounter Kane.
He had no delusions that he could escape from Kane’s grasp.
Silver light began to emanate from his body, then tried to retract into his body, entering a liberated state.
Intending to use his life directly to cause some trouble for Kane.
Seeing this, Kane couldn’t help but say, "These fanatical believers truly are annoying." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm
Meanwhile, the three believers rushed directly toward Kane, preparing to strike first.
Faced with the enemy’s various techniques, Kane stood motionless, simply waving his hand lightly.
The three believers charging at Kane suddenly fell from mid-air.
Heavy impacts on the mist shook the ground and lifted the fog.
The light blue metal rings on their feet now emitted a blue glow, the silver-gray light on the three believers instantly vanished.
They appeared to become excruciatingly weak all at once, collapsed on the ground, almost unable to move.
Attempting several times to speak but could only utter weak, faint sounds.
Unable even to open their eyes.
The bishop and opponent hadn’t entered a liberated state, presently kneeling on one knee on the ground, leaning on his scepter to prevent himself from completely collapsing.
Struggling to lift his head, he stared at Kane, his eyes vacant, on the brink of closing.
He tried to reach for the ring on his ankle but lacked the strength to pull it off.
In the end, he could only use both hands to brace on the scepter, desperately trying to hold himself up.
Watching the enemy’s struggle, Kane couldn’t help but smile.
"You have to admit, some gadgets from the God of All Machines really come in handy."
The foot ring he used now was specifically for controlling an enemy’s weakness.
It was effective only on humanoid and human-like creatures, the effectiveness depending primarily on the user’s strength, or the material and energy of the foot ring.
Also depends on how knowledgeable the user is about the enemy, the more understanding the greater the effect.
With Kane’s colorful strength, anyone inferior to him would be affected by the ring, not to mention these believers, whom Kane knew very well.
The weaker they are, the more exaggerated the influence.
Judging by the bishop before him, it’s clear even at the tri-color level he’s considered a weaker bottom tier.
Affected by the ring, he could barely stand up.
Kane had experimented with these gadgets, normally those at the tri-color level who have grasped a skill can still fight simply when wearing these rings.
Watching such a scene, Lilu couldn’t help pouting, shaking her legs and hands displeased as she spoke, "Kane settled it instantly; why did he call Lilu to come along!"
"Don’t rush; I just captured them. I’ll need your help for the subsequent research."
Hearing Kane’s reassurance, Lilu immediately calmed down.
Kane walked up to the bishop, crouching down to look at him.
Soon, a cage rose from the mist, enclosing all four of the Deep Light Order believers, floating in midair, controlled by Kane to drift into the mist.
Finally reaching a safe area near a fortress, Kane landed the cage.
Throughout the journey, the three believers kept their eyes closed, breathing weakly.
The bishop stared at Kane, though feeble, saying nothing.
He pondered why the enemy captured him alive.
"Laboratory."
Kane spoke, and magic power spread from the mist beneath his feet.
A silver steel structure folded and interlocked as it rose from the ground.
Encompassing everyone within it.
Under Kane’s creation, a laboratory swiftly took shape.
The cage disappeared instantly, the three believers controlled by Kane, floated aside, casually piled together.
Under Kane’s control, the bishop wore light blue iron bracelets on his wrists, ankles, and neck, and then, manipulated by these bracelets, he was spread open in the shape of a star, floating upright in mid-air.
At this moment, Kane turned his head to Lilu and said, "Control him for a while. I’m going to shut down the weakening of the magic power. Keeping it on all the time affects my research judgment."
Upon hearing Kane’s words, Lilu nodded, realizing it was the reason Kane had called her to join him.
"Leave it to Lilu!"
Lilu tugged up her sleeves, as if preparing to get serious, and a childish fairytale magic staff appeared in her hand.
As she waved it, colorful light filled the air, surging into the body of the enemy before her.
The disciple seemed to feel something, his mouth wide open as if he wanted to speak, but no specific sound emerged, and just like that, he was completely controlled by Lilu.
After clapping her hands, Lilu turned around and cheerfully said to Kane, "Alright, it’s done."
Kane nodded, completely shutting off the functions of the bracelet on his hand.
The enemy’s originally weakened power surged back up again, with a faint silver-gray glow once more emerging from his body.
Seeing this situation, Kane nodded in satisfaction.
The bishop remained silently imprisoned, suspended in the air.
At this moment, various incomprehensible magical research machinery appeared around, and Lilu silently landed on the tabletop not far away.
She quietly sat down, meditating or playing games with herself, no longer disturbing Kane.
"Lilu, control him using his power."
Under Lilu’s control, the bishop’s body emitted a denser silver-gray glow, instantly solidifying into a silver-gray energy whip.
Watching the bishop and the power he wielded in front of him, Kane began to study meticulously with the help of surrounding tools.
Comparing it with his own power in greater detail, Kane allowed a faint silver-gray light to radiate from his body, and a long whip appeared in his hand as well.
This scene caused the completely controlled bishop’s eyes to widen in disbelief.
His eyes were filled with disbelief as he stared at Kane.
A God-Hater possessing divine power?!
However, his question remained unanswered; he couldn’t even voice his doubts.
Like a puppet with strings attached, under Lilu’s control, he performed the actions and movements Kane required.
After the comparison, Kane nodded in satisfaction.
"Whether by the naked eye or various detection methods, it’s impossible to find any difference in this power."
Perhaps only those powerful individuals within the order or the Deep Light itself could tell.
Now, it’s time to delve into deeper understanding.
A very ancient lamp made of faint white components appeared in his hand.
This lamp resembled a purely magical artifact rather than a mechanical creation.
The egg-white components were engraved with densely packed runes, even the transparent lampshade had faintly visible array patterns painted on it.
Kane reached out to grasp the void, saying, "Kreya, lend me some power."
Upon finishing his sentence, black and white flames appeared in his hand, flowing into the lamp under Kane’s control.
As the flames gathered slowly within the lamp, Kane began constructing a structure within the lamp wick, resembling a slender needle tube.
The black and white flames completely gathered within the construct.
Only then did this lamp entirely meet Kane’s requirements.
After completing all this, he casually waved his hand.
A disciple, seemingly discarded like trash, flew over and landed before Kane.
A sharp spike appeared from the void, penetrating directly through the enemy’s back.
In an instant, the enemy died in front of Kane.
Simultaneously, Kane had deployed a circle of very small hexagonal module shields around.
Completely isolating everything within this space, including the soul.
Then, controlling in mid-air, a soul which could be discerned from a face formed by mist revealed itself as the soul of the corpse beneath his feet.
The soul streamed straight into Kane’s lamp, enveloping the needle tube and filling the entirety of the lampshade inside.
Subsequently, silver-gray light appeared in Kane’s hand.
Scattered silver-gray particles emerged in the air, representing the enemy’s power, but under Kane’s silver-gray light control, they manifested, yet weren’t fully controlled by Kai An, simply floating quietly in the lamp’s airspace.
Seeing this situation, Kane furrowed his brows, contemplatively reflecting on where mistakes possibly occurred or what might need improvement.
After a brief moment of reflection.
Kane turned his head toward two other enemies still under control.
He waved his hand.
Another enemy floated over.
