Chapter 2355 New Seed
"Welcome back, Grandmistress; it is a wonderful battle you have fought," I said as Grandmaster Atkins appeared in the tower.
"That Apeman is too strong; it counters my abilities well," She said with a sigh. "I am sure you will be successful one day," I said, to which she smiled before sitting back in her chair and closing her eyes in rest.
She might look fine, but the battle had clearly tired her; she had fought against two peak Grandmasters, it was no easy task.
I remained in the tower for one and half hours before I walked out of it. n.o.body had said anything, and I quickly appeared on my small island, where I took out my fis.h.i.+ng rod, fixed the bait on it, and began fis.h.i.+ng.
I have been doing this every day, and aside from the day I came here and the day before yesterday, I got disturbed every time, which ended up in the battle.
I wonder whether I will get disturbed today; I could already feel the two gazes toward me. I would be more than happy to entertain them since I had already released the newly created seed, and it would seep inside the Blackstone Rhinoman within a minute.
A minute pa.s.sed, the Camelman and Rhinoman were still looking at me without attacking while my seed seeped inside the Blackstone Rhinoman.
Instantly my eyes became serious. This seed is much more powerful than the tracking seed, and there is a slight chance that a bridge in the sacred region might reject it. If that happened, all my preparations would go to waste, and the primal switch will kill it instantly.
That would cause an immense loss to me; the value of Rhinoman is a million times greater than the resources I had spent on creating the seed, and I really want to deal with much greater preparations, but I do not have a choice.
The Grimm Monster could leave at any moment, or worse, it might get killed; before any of this happen, I want to get as much data from it as possible.
As the new seed entered the body of the Rhinoman, the old tracking seed I had placed inside six days ago extended a string out through the sacred s.p.a.ce.
The tracking seed had fully acclimated itself into the bridge in the sacred s.p.a.ce of the Rhinoman; its movements are undetectable. Thankfully, I have already predicted the seed might be heavy and made some changes before inserting the seed.
The string came out of the sacred s.p.a.ce and wrapped around the new seed, and a moment later, a different aura enveloped the new seed through the string before the string pulled into the sacred s.p.a.ce of the Rhinoman.
The aura is the cloaking aura the tracking seed had developed in its time in the sacred s.p.a.ce. It will give the new seed another layer of protection from the defenses of the sacred s.p.a.ce.
With the help of the string, the new seed slowly moved into the sacred s.p.a.ce, and I watched it happen with the bated spread.
Even though the whole process is automated against the detection, I so wanted to take the process into my hand. Thankfully, I could not do that.
I have developed controlling tendencies in the past year and knew I would feel the compulsion to control the whole process, which would increase the chances of detection drastically.
So, I have designed the seed in such a way that during this process, I could not control them even if I wanted.
Seconds pa.s.sed by like an hour before finally, a new seed entered the bridge, and seeing that, I couldn"t help but take a sigh of relief. With the new seed in the bridge, where the presence of my old tracking seed is merged, discovering my seed is extremely hard.
As the new seed entered the bridge, part of it split open like a mouth, and it had swallowed the tracking seed.
There is no need for two seeds in the bridge, and the tracking speed was just a temporary measure till the new seed took its place. Now, its energies and programs would merge with the new seed, making it even more powerful.
It took a few minutes for the new seed to completely swallow the tracking seed, and after it. It spewed a pink-grey crystal which is ten times smaller than a grain of sand.
The crystal is completely invisible to the eyes and senses of the peak Grandmaster. They would not be able to see it even if they concentrated all their energies on the place where it was lying.
The crystal came out of the body of Rhinoman undetected, and my already extended strings caught it before bringing it to me a few seconds later.
The tiny crystal is a data packet containing everything that happened in the Grimms body. Most importantly, what happened in the bridge where body, soul, and bloodline connect. It also contains what Rhinoman saw, spoke, and sensed in the past few days.
It is a treasure trove, as all the seeds I had capable of recording, I had never let the Grimms take them inside their fortresses in few of getting discovered.
It might not seem like it, but fortresses are packed with sensory tech and artifacts.
In the command center, there are twelve artifacts and tech devices that scan every part of us, not to mention we go for the surprise inspection under very powerful artifacts as top-cla.s.s medbeds and sometimes even peak Grandmaster and Grand Lords scan bodies.
I always fear my precious seed might get discovered and always remove them before Grimm"s return to their fortresses.
In my old tracking seeds, there was a very powerful program of self-destruction when something sensory locked on them.
With Rhinoman, there is no need to fear that; the seed is placed in the sacred place, at the deepest part, which connects body, soul, and bloodline. In Grimms, if anyone scans that part of them, the primal switch would be activated, and they would die immediately.
