Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master

"Come on, spill the beans," William snorted, "or else you'll suffer a huge backlash."

"If I suffer from it, then you won't get to know the answer, right?"

"Still dreaming of resisting," William slowly shook his head, "don't you get it? You have no other option or way around it. Just give up, and tell me what I want, and keep your head on your shoulders."

"I'd prefer to die with the secret, instead of just serving you!"

"Tsk!" William shook his head, "why do you always try things the difficult way? Ok, watch me then…"

William knew that statue meant to challenge his authority. It wasn't just about this point, but what if it started a trend among others?

And so killing it was going to be the final solution, yet he still needed to know the answer to his question before killing that wolf statue.

"I know you have a way to breed more of your kin, so tell me, how did you do it? Where are these breeding grounds?" William turned his full attention towards other statues. He didn't care whom to speak to, whom to answer, because the answer was known to many, if not all.

It wasn't a secret, as all of them either were indulged in making new Transformers, or got born and raised at one of these secret locations.

The moment he said his words, an eerie silence prevailed over the place. William moved his eyes around, as if he was asking: anyone?

*Blop!*

Just in the next second, three statues cracked into fine rocks and rubbles, and fell to the ground in pieces. This sight gave an instant shock towards the rest, while William slowly said, with a voice that sounded like it came from the depths of hell:

"I'm not asking nicely, not even asking at all. This is an order, refuse to comply, and I won't hesitate to kill all of you."

William knew this was the first test of his new authority over them. It was hard for others to imagine how this Mystic Art worked, so he needed to demonstrate first, speak second. And as he expected, the statues started to act and respond third!

William listened, and soon enough, a great detailed intel was gained, enough to even draw a very detailed map of the entire continent, with tons of places marked as breeding sites.

It wasn't only that, he also gained insights about how they managed to do it in the first place, how they managed to breed such a large number of statues over a short time.

"You were using human blood to nourish your newly formed statues?!!" William looked at everyone around, at the king and others, "how come tons of people went missing without anyone noticing it?"

"I… I can't say it's easy to notice that," the king felt like William was blaming him. And that was indeed true. From the words he and others listened to just now, they all knew these statues killed millions of people over the past century alone. It was scary to hear that, but it felt true as many said the same thing.

"We used to launch monster tides over places crowded with humans, so it's expected no one ever heard about this," one of the leaders said, "we were very cautious to not alarm the humans, or else they might investigate what's going on and discover what we were doing."

"In fact, I heard you got into one of our monster tides, the one we launched against a clan at your academy before…"

"You… You were the one to attack Berry's place?!!!" William knew he didn't fully grasp the intentions behind that monster tide, the one that came at the Long clan. But now, everything was fully explained to him.

It wasn't a normal monster tide as he expected. It was something to cover up these statues' schemes, and that made him realise he and them were fated long before the two met.

"What do you plan to do?" The wolf statue felt a little nervous about William's true intentions. It looked at William in silence all this time, trying to think of another explanation but the obvious one.

"What else?" William shrugged, "I'm going to purge all these places, kill your newly formed statues, and make sure not a single human will suffer again. This is my response to your stubbornness. So sit tight, I won't kill you soon…"

"The more reasons to not tell you about the gate…"

"Don't think too highly of yourself," William snorted, "it's true my masters looked everywhere, didn't find a thing. But that's not true. There is a place we haven't searched yet…"

William didn't speak further, simply raised his left leg, before landing it heavily on the ground. A faint tremble occurred, but it was nothing compared to what this statue felt, a shattering earthquake, one that was fierce enough to make it tremble and sway.

"I guessed it right, right?"

William evilly laughed, before turning to the king, Sloth, and Fang, "you know what to do."

"Dig!" the king spoke in a low tone, one that was filled with tons of anger and hatred. He was mad, and got all the reasons to feel so. After all, he just learnt that millions of good masters and innocent people got killed under his nose without sniffing any of it.

The next hour was quite noisy. All of the masters here were high end stage, but many didn't have earth elements. So they went out there, brought back tons of earth based masters. 

As the entire hall wasn't that huge to accommodate all of them, they started to restructure the place, expanding it, taking down tons of rocks, and expanding it ten times.

Then they started to work on the ground. The moment they spent half an hour doing this, the entire place looked as if a grand disaster just hit it! The ground was gone, and instead, there was a huge and deep hole there.
