Re-Birth Of A Genius. Creator/Destroyer

Arc gave all the instructions that need to be given and left the court after sending the rest of them off.

He walked back into a room, where Vickers is waiting.

When Arc sat down, Vickers asked.

"Is it really necessary to make this much commotion? You already said you already caught twenty-one of them, so what can the other four do. You already stopped the majority. I think you are overreacting a bit. Even if all the other nations didn't identify this and war really did begin, the possibility of all of the coming to the western continent to attack is very low.

They have to cross the six major powers if they want to visit our continent as there are no space-gates that directly connect the four continents and the empires."

Arc stayed silent for a while and said.

"I know all that, but I feel a bad premonition about this. If by any chance their hidden boss is powerful enough to get his hands, on one-way Space-gates, you do know what would happen.

If all the information I get is true and those four people who I haven't caught yet could secretly create more followers, they themselves can turn into Transcendent stage cultivators.

Of course, the possibility is really less, but that doesn't mean there is no possibility at all."

"Okay, you do your thing. What do you want me to do?"

"I want you to stay within the imperial capital for now. I will be leaving for thunder god temple tomorrow morning, I have two goals, one of them is meeting the temple-head and explaining the situation and another one is finding information about Sam.

I believe he can find a way to create some safety measures."

After discussing some more details, both of them left the room.

The next morning, Arc first went to Moriya's room who is currently looking through the possible candidates' list.

He has been doing the same thing since he came here and he has repeated the procedure multiple times, but it seems like he doesn't feel bored or unproductive doing that.

"Moriya, I want an appointment with the temple-head."

He went straight to the point as soon as he entered the room.

"Why are you asking me? As an emperor, you can take an appointment once every year and from what I know, you haven't used your chance for this year."

"I know that, but it would take at least a week for me to meet the temple-head. I don't have that much time."

"Can you tell me what is the problem then? I will see what I can do if the problem is really serious."

Then Arc went on explaining everything to Moriya, who became solemn after hearing that.

"You do know that you would suffer grave consequences if you turn out to be lying, right? This is not something to joke around. You better confirm it thrice before you bring out this info to the temple head."

"In fact, I prepared enough proof. I left one of them alive and didn't extract his soul yet. I think the thunder god temple will surely have someone who can look into his memories. So, I would like you guys to confirm it yourselves.

Apart from that, there are pills that they brought and someone even brought a couple of followers just to get some information.

I will be bringing them all to the thunder god temple and you can take action only after you confirm it."

After that, both of them left the place and entered the space-gate and left to the thunder god temple.

Moriya, brought Arc along as they entered another Space gate in the Space gate island and directly went to the core region of the temple, where the temple-head resides.

Nobody stopped him as he walked to the Temple-head's private room directly. Arc waited outside the door for Moriya to call him.

As for the prisoners they brought along, they are not allowed to the core region and are being held captive within the Space-gate Island.

After half-an-hour, Arc was granted entry and he was able to meet the temple-head.

He explained every detail and the temple-head went into deep thought.

"Where are the pills you collected from them?"

Arc passed some pill bottles. The temple-head took a look at the pills and smelled them. He frowned after that as if he smelled something disgusting.

He passed the pills to Moriya and said. Pass some to our personal pill refinery section and send some to the Pharmaceutical tower. Ask both of them analyze the contents of the pills, I need results as soon as possible."

He then turned towards Arc and said.

"We will take over the captives you brought, you can go back for now and make your preparations, I will send someone to notify, if we find anything else regarding this situation."

"Thank you, Sir."

Arc left with those words.

"Send them captives to interrogation and examine the followers' bodies. Try to get every detail they can possibly get. No matter, how minute it is, you have to get that information.

Send an Invite for the Grand Elders for a meeting. We have to talk about this and see if other two nations have any similar scenarios."

The temple-head gave these orders to Moriya and went into a deep thought.

Moriya left and executed each and every order.

After half-a-day, all the results came out, the followers are first interrogated and they seemed to have no common-sense. No matter, what questions they asked there is not a single normal response.

All they talk is the nonsense about being a church follower is the only truth and the church is the only thing that brought them fairness. Some of them doesn't even seem to remember their own names.

Their body conditions are also peculiar, they couldn't find a spiritual core, but the muscle fibres, the skin and the bones are all trying to absorb the spiritual energy and they became extremely dense.

The process is still on going. And there is vitality that has been acc.u.mulating continuously within their systems from the suroundings.

After that, they finally tried to extract memories from the soul and the results they got surprised them. Most of the memories they have seemed to have completely gone. One of the followers they extracted is forty years old and all the memories he had are the memories of past few days before he joined the church.

The few days in which he was normal, except for those few days' daily routine, there is not a single normal memory.

All the memories, regarding his childhood, teenage and youth were all gone and in place of them there is only one thing that was filled in their minds.

The church.

All the time, they are only thinking about the church and the priest.

The same thing happened to with the rest of the followers.

The memories from the Priest are clear for them to see and they could confirm what Arc said about the whole thing.

As for the pills, that is where the results are not positive.

They did get some results on composition and both the pill refiner of the temple and the tower found almost all components of the pill except for three unknown components which they don't know how to identify because they are dissolved in the rest of the ingredients.

After getting all these results, the temple-head and two grand elders both held a meeting and are looking through them carefully.

"From the information we got, all Arc said seemed to be true, but what should we do about the situation and how should we proceed further?" The First grand elder asked the temple head.

"I think we have to first verify if this really is happening in rest of the countries, since we cannot verify the countries in others' jurisdiction, we can only verify in the two nations that are under our jurisdiction.

Both of you will visit each nation just in case.

Even though, it is hard to believe that a Transcendent will be created just like that, it is better safe than sorry.

After your return we will see if we should proceed further and ask the rest of the major powers to confirm if it is same for them or not."

With that the meeting ended.

Meanwhile, within the Usaine Sect.

After the emperor of the Eastern continent explained the situation, there is an extreme debate going on within the upper echelons of the sect.

Some of them chose not to believe whatever the emperor said and felt that it might just have been a coup de tat in an attempt to usurp the throne indirectly.

As for the undead and the followers turning into it.

All of them are going on about how it is impossible for that to happen and kept giving examples and reasons for their explanation. Only two people in the entire room apart from the emperor are calm enough to think straight and even gave food for thought to believe what the emperor said is true.

"I will be sending a Grand elder to look into the situation and if what you said turned out to be true, I will contact the rest of the major powers and if it is not, you should be ready to face consequences."

"Thank you, Sir."
