Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse Chapter 343 - Setting Off!

Chapter 343 - Setting Off!

In the expansive Inquiring Mountain that was under the control of Grandmaster Vredral, a golden ship that was much different than normally seen warsh.i.p.s was lifting off into the skies.

One could observe an array of dangerous cannons made out of unknown materials, the runic markings inlaid all around them contributing to an ancient feel that only showed a glimpse of their power.

The entire vessel was larger than 2 kilometers, its contrasting colors of red and gold plastered on its smooth rectangular appearance making it eye-catching as it passed through the protective layer of the 7th Celestial Star and shot off into the vastness of space.

On this specialized Interstellar Ship that was called a Prime Warship, Noah was standing beside a girl with a brilliant aura that was only enhanced by her bronze skin that did not seem to hold a single blemish. She held smooth dark hair that was tied up in a simple ponytail, adding to this simple look even more as she only adorned a red robe.

Behind them in the room that held the central command of the Prime Warship, Grandmaster Vredral could be seen using wisps of his expansive energy to propel the ship forward as it became a streak of light in the vastness of space.

His pondering gaze was on the back of the stupendous Genius that had turned the heads of many on the 7th Celestial Star, his potential quickly making those in the upper ranks compare him to Athena and the plans they had for her.

Similar to the War Princes, they had discerned that Crixus was a being that held a Noble Fate, a position that very few would hold in the centuries that pass. Those with a Noble Fate held very distinct positions as it was extremely hard to discern their future, making it critical to raise them well in the eyes of the Celestial.

Vredral had only given this young Celestial the chance to try his new method of reducing chaos in the upcoming conflict for this reason, as he knew of the unpredictability that those with a Noble Fate could bring. It would serve as a lesson should he fail, and on the off chance that his method reduced the level of chaos and deaths as much as what they originally planned with the complete destruction of the Magus World?

A smile appeared on the Grandmasters face at this thought as he observed Crixus turning and talking towards Athena.

---

Noahs now calm aura of a Celestial bounced off his body as the abundant Fate Lines brought forth a unique air, his face turning towards Athena as he fished for more information.

"Have you done a mission similar to what this one was originally supposed to be? Have you overseen the destruction of an entire world?"

An indiscernible light crossed Athenas eyes as she heard this, staring towards the constantly changing vastness of space as she replied calmly.

"Once before. On a Large World that went under the name of the Lost World."

"Oh? What did their forces do?"

An interested look appeared on Noahs face as he listened closely to finally get the history for the reason of the destruction of the Lost World.

"The world was first brought to our attention because of the beings of a few other Worlds that they held skirmishes with, coming to our knowledge that they were creating Cursed Items which directly went against the Universal Laws. Usually, this alone isnt enough to warrant the verdict of destruction, but when a Grandmaster used [Fate Discernement] on this world, they came to find a terrible fate that would arise from this world."

"They foresaw that a being would rise to usher in a new rule above this Lost World, going on to use the Cursed Items created from this world to usher in an era of chaos across the Light Expanse."

...!

Noahs mind shook briefly as he heard these words, many thoughts coursing through his mind as he continued to listen.

"The Verdict for the worlds destruction was made soon after, the mission of overseeing it falling on my shoulders. We were successful in reducing chaos with its destruction, with no more information being able to be ascertained after its destruction."

Noah outwardly nodded outside while an array of thoughts rapidly came and went in his mind. Athenas words possibly held a shocking meaning as they repeated in his mind, a big question appearing as even though he didnt want to think too highly of himself, he was most likely the being that the Celestials foresaw to take the reigns of the Lost World after he defeated Baal, using their World Engines as he was already planning to right at this moment!

This thought felt ludicrous, but it was also the most straightforward one! Through [Fate Discernment], the Celestials had foreseen him coming to power, and they had almost succeeded in killing him in the Lost World...were it not for one particular Sect Master Inuit.

"..."

Noah adopted a thoughtful look as he stared out into the changing vastness of space as the Prime Warship they were on got ever closer to the Magus World, a variety of feelings coursing through his mind as he realized even though it was not his fault, the reason that the Celestials destroyed an entire World with billions of beings was because of him!

This thought lingered in his mind as he tried to get past it and look forward to the future. He could not change what occurred then, but he was trying to look at the possibilities of changing things now. There was another world in the near future that was marked for death, and this one also had a singular force that was the target for the Celestials.

For the sake of tying off all loose ends, permanently cutting off the cycle of chaos, and sending a message of fear to the surrounding powers to reduce any further disorder- the Celestials would accept the loss of a few billion lives. They justified this because were they not to act at all, the chaos that would unravel would cause tens of billions of lives.

Noah knew they werent wrong, as he himself had confirmed this with [Fate Discernment]! But...he just didnt want those that were completely innocent finding their world placed under a spatial lock as they watched destruction close in. He did not want a repeat of the Lost World where he saved the Ocean Master and tens of thousands of others in Atlantis, but left behind billions more.

In this brief moment in time, his humanity pushed back the ever so expanding bloodline of the Vampyre Progenitor that gradually made him colder and more calculating as he was now focused on achieving the same goal as the Celestials, but through different means that did not require the destruction of an entire star and all those in it.

But this possible path...would be much bloodier, and much more cruel for the instigators who would have just faced quick deaths.

A gaze of determination overcame his face as he looked forward, the reality of the past and future much clearer in his mind.
