BIOLOGICAL SUPERCOMPUTER SYSTEM-Chapter 1075: The President’s Daughter (1)
Chapter 1075: The President's Daughter (1)
Since Erik and his friends needed to get to an island, but it looked like there wasn't an easy way to reach it, in the end, most of them agreed on the fact that the only way to get there was to use shapeshifted clones to fly there. This was risky, but they thought it was the best way to arrive with no one seeing them or messing up their mission.
<Damn time... It's never enough.>
Erik had lost enough of it already, and he wasn't willing to waste more than he already did. As soon as they got control of Hin, he would start his attack. It was just that he would not do it without an army behind him and protecting Mira, Amber, Emily, and June.
There was a reason Erik didn't just rush to Maynard Island after he got the Chimaeric Demons, and that was because meeting the Leviathan Serpent truly impressed him. No, impressed wasn't the right word to use. It terrified him.
When Erik met the Leviathan Serpent, he felt a fear like never had. It wasn't just because the creature was gigantic or how it affected its surroundings and generated waves that could destroy a city.
That alone was frightening, but it wasn't the most terrifying aspect of them all. What terrified Erik was the power it had without the need to use its brain crystal power. It deeply shook Erik, as he realized he couldn't match its power in his current situation, even if he possessed five times the energy stats.
This fear wasn't something Erik could just think away. It was a gut reaction, like what his human ancestors might have felt when facing the first thaid ever to appear or when they saw the elephants for the first time. Even with all his powers, Erik felt tiny and unimportant next to this creature.
That there might be more beings like the Leviathan Serpent, or even stronger ones, made Erik even more afraid.
There was no way he was going to get there without having enough power, enough troops, and enough preparation.
So Erik spent time making his forces stronger and getting ready for the last part of their plan. They were almost ready, but one important thing was still missing: control over Hin.
The Chimaeric Demons had taken the place of many important people in Sleb Harbour, aside from having replaced key figures in most of the fortifications across the country and foreign
ones.
However, they couldn't get close to the country's leader, President Salena Turke, which they needed to replace if they really wanted to cut any kind of support to the blackguards.
Her close advisors used the Veritas Lenses, which made it very hard to find out where she was or what she was doing because the Chimaeric Demons couldn't get close to her.
Erik had even tried using the biological supercomputer to track her online, but he found nothing.
It looked like every scrap of information about the president had been scrubbed from the world, leaving them with no leads to follow.
At least for some time. The Chimaeric Demons had uncovered a potential weakness in the president's defenses.
Her daughter, a young woman who had been living under heavy protection, got sent to Khunelerp on a diplomatic mission.
She was now on her way back to Hin and would have landed at Sleb Harbour's airport today. This was the most important, and maybe the only chance Erik had to get information about Salena Turke's location, and he would not let that pass.
For the past weeks, while Erik trained and made more eggs, they focused on preparing an operation to kidnap the woman to replace her and avoid arousing suspicions. Erik was going to read the woman's mind once she was inside the walls.
Of course, this was only possible if she was aware of her mother's location, which was far from a given.
"Are we ready?" Erik asked to a Chimaeric Demon.
The clone nodded.
"Yes, master. 500 Chimaeric Demons are already in position at the airport," he said. "They are waiting for the target to arrive."
"A pity we couldn't send more." If they did, the chances of success would be 100%, but 500 Chimaeric Demons weren't enough to ensure everything went smoothly.
Sleb Harbour was already sparsely populated, and a sudden influx of new faces at the airport would raise suspicions.
"If we tipped our hands too soon, master, we would have made it clear we are targeting the president's daughter."
Erik took a deep breath. "I'm going to join the operation," he said.
"There's no need, Master. We can handle this on our own. Your safety is paramount."
But Erik shook his head. "I know you can, but I won't take any chances. If things go wrong and we fail to capture her, there won't be any other chances. I want to be there. If we need to extract the information quickly, I can read the woman's mind on the spot."
The Chimaeric Demon bowed his head. "As you wish, Master." The Chimaeric Demons would not go against their master's wish.
Erik's plan was simple. They needed to replace the president's daughter and her entire entourage with Chimaeric Demons.
They would then bring the woman to their base and there extract all the information they needed. She couldn't resist Erik's Instability brain crystal power, after all.
"If we fail, the blackguards will know about us, so try not to mess up, all right?"
"Yes, master."
"Oh... and prepare the troops to attack Salena Turke as soon as we get the location. After that, we are going to attack the blackguards..."
"Yes, master..."
Erik was about to leave, feeling the weight of his choices. He stopped at the door, thinking about what they were going to do.
Capturing the president's daughter was a big step in their plan. It meant there was no going back. Erik took a deep breath to gather his courage. He then opened the door and walked into
the hallway.
"Let's go," Erik said.
"After you, master."
