A second sun had shone over the city, and a massive serpent had risen to the sky as it chased after a werewolf who was able to fight back against the aerial assault of the snake.

Another werewolf wreaked havoc at the city grounds. It was being forced back by three exoskeletons that had the power to create a powerful attack that would pierce through the buildings and send the werewolf flying.

In the middle of all this chaos, very few paid attention to the massacre of all the forces that remained under Gordon. There were over a thousand Aragarians ranging from Planted to Pioneers in that building. The technology they used was either high-tech weapons from other countries or new but strange technology.

The soldiers of the Unlocked dove through the variety of techs and used certain techs to counter the diverse technology that was being used.

The Pioneers\' defenses had quickly fallen, and a chaotic shoot-out occurred deep inside the building and the underground floors.

Lynd continued to observe the whole battle from one of the buildings nearby. The key battles between Amir and Cliff and Meryl and Irvana were chaotic, but they were secretly avoiding Lynd\'s location. They still had to follow the guidelines despite going all out and trying to kill the other party.

"This is very satisfactory. The computer game we developed and improved through the computer systems we reverse-engineered in Shakstress\'s ships is doing great! No casualty against Pioneers!" Lynd smiled as he continued to give the report ignoring Charm, who was shouting in fear each time Cliff would nearly die.

Charles was checking the data that Lynd was sending through the computers and was comparing the brainwaves of all Unlocked, checking for any other possible candidates for the Unlocking.

"The disadvantage for this is that it greatly diminishes the chances of seeing if there are Inhuman potentials among them." Charles frowned. He was busy performing various experiments at the same time. There were several people behind him, working on various experiments.

In several large tubes was Aragarians who were being experimented on.

"The computer games that we developed had managed to create a safe training ground with great accuracy. But since our men are already trained to that level, deploying them to fight this battle has drastically decreased the crisis level that they are facing." Charles shook his head.

"Oh, come on, Charles! Even though the data suggest that the average Unbecoming we have now are more equipped to fight. Now, five Unbecomings have a shot at defeating Inhumans, especially those that don\'t have Ranked Hero potential. All you care about is receiving the right data to push Inhumans to the next stage. And why are you experimenting on Aragarians? I thought the Aragarians do not have the \'seed\' of the Progenitor and have a body that can only reach as high as Surmounting Unbecoming!"

"It\'s related to Ricardo." Charles answered.

"What? He\'s not an Aragarian, right? Oh. I get it. He\'s not a seed."

"Yes. From my data, his father must have come from a line that hasn\'t intermarried with the Progenitors seeds. I have developed a way to determine those descended or intermarried with the Seeds of the Progenitor. You, Seeker, and Meryl have a much purer lineage branching from one of the direct seeds that the Progenitor must have planted."

"I guessed that part. Seeker\'s Path of believing cannot work on those who are not seeds. In Seeker\'s alternate timeline, he was able to turn Unbecoming into Inhumans, like his Gryphon squadron, because the crisis level that the Earth faced was far terrifying than our current timeline. So those that had bloodlines from the seeds of the Progenitor naturally grew strong. But the alternate us had very little tech, so all we could do was use desperate and primitive solutions. But with our current knowledge and your advancement, even without Seeker, I probably would have awakened my Path." Lynd replied.

"Actually, I have a theory that the two of you needed each other and that the two of you needed two different timelines to perfect your Path."

"Explain." Lynd frowned.

"It\'s not just you, but all Overcomers. Your Path is much harder to grow than others. But I believe that Seeker also needed your Path to grow strong first before Seeker could grow strong himself. It\'s like this, for Seeker\'s Path to reach perfection, he needed a powerful you to be his guide. But that wasn\'t possible on the previous timeline. Seeker already reached Ranked Hero without having completely awakened his Path. Even when you grew, Seeker just didn\'t have the foundation to be the Truth."

"So he needed to awaken me Path first. He saw the guide, and he time-traveled to a time where he has not yet stepped into the path of cultivation..."

"Correct. I believe this is also part of the Progenitor\'s plan. He needed time travel had to happen to help Seeker reach this strength. The Progenitor foresaw that you\'d be together, and he arranged for Seeker to live two lifetimes so to resolve an impossible loop. Seeker now had a guide to follow in his memories. And he met the other Overcomers earlier and managed to thread on their Path. This is why I\'m confident that the Life, the last of the titles of the Messiah, will soon appear. Seeker\'s Path has grown and has been foundational to all Overcomers."

"That\'s quite a theory... But that vision we saw when we fought Shakstress proves that the Progenitor has a way of not just seeing the future. He can define it. How else did he know that Seeker and I would be able to use that power of combining two incomplete powers? But if the Progenitor had such power, then the real battle starts now, doesn\'t it?" Lynd sighed.

"Yes. Our previous battles didn\'t involve any Principals and Primes. Butareow we could face beings with powers that can determine and change the future. Who knows? Maybe our lives and the future battles are all part of the continuing battle between our Progenitor, the Lost Primordial, and the Primordial of the Aragarians."

"Well, that\'s complicating and very nauseating. Just when I could finally imitate Arthur\'s prediction powers to a certain degree, we now have fate-altering, time-traveling, seed-planting enemies."

"Sounds fun, though. Since we have a clearer picture of the capabilities of Principles and Primes, you could even say that this Lost Progenitor also predetermined Harker and Alean\'s allegiance to us. But little Ricardo isn\'t. He isn\'t someone with born as a seed. So do you understand my research? I am trying to do the impossible. I am trying to turn Ricardo into a seed."

"How sure are you that he isn\'t a seed?"

"The Progenitor followed the Bible when he crafted this plan of his. So tell me, did the Plague of the Firstborn kill any from the Hebrews in Egypt?"

"No. Is that\'s your basis? Exodus?"

"That\'s it. But I\'m confident in this. But now, with such poor results in the current reports you are sending for the debut battles of those newbies, it\'s hard for me to gather data as fewer Unbecomings will become Inhumans! I need more data on the reactions that push an Unbecoming into the Inhuman level. And those damned computer games are hindering the process! My mom was right! Computer games are bad for the brain!" Charles cursed.

Lynd rolled his eyes as he watched the satisfactory result that the computer games gave them. Victory was assured, and no soldier died. None were even critically injured.

"I\'m sure you\'d figure something out. You\'ve already proven to walk in the Path of Eagle and Lennox, who has achieved power through the brain. So when are you going to take the test?"

"I don\'t want to take that damned Ranked Hero test! I\'m so busy!"

"You\'d be granted access to higher-tier techs!"

"Military techs, yes. But I don\'t need military techs. I just need to resolve this! Lynd, Ricardo isn\'t just her child anymore. He\'s also mine." Charles glanced at Lynd.

"I see... We\'ll you don\'t have to worry though. The Presider War has already started, and I\'m sure you\'ll get a huge data with terrifying crisis levels that would shake even Overcomers." Lynd glanced back outside.

Cliff was falling as the Serpent had vanished. Amir had only his upper torso remaining, but it was quickly regenerating.

The trio members of Cliff\'s group rushed to save their Commander. Each had a limb missing and several chunks of their bodies bitten off.

"So, Cliff\'s team lost..." Lynd sighed.

"And here I thought Cliff would start showing power like ours." Lynd sighed as he gave the orders.

"Mom, Dad. Move out. Clean up the area. Uncle Chirs, Uncle Steveson, start the fight. Aunt Grace and Aunt Jade, please standby in case some Presiders show up." Lynd gave the orders.

"Alright. You heard my son! Let\'s go!"

"Tsk. Just when I was about to beat this punk in chess." Steveson sighed.

"Well, this punk will beat you for real! Come here, Mikado! We haven\'t had a good fight for a while!" Chris roared.

Lynd sighed as he shook his head.

Charles chuckled as he saw it.

"Is it hard being the Commander of your parents and everyone else?"

"Hell would freeze over before I would be their Commander! It\'s very awkward for me to give orders. They\'ll be with the Realm King."

"Oh? But what about you? Meryl will be meeting with her Twelve Disciple squadron. What squadron will you command?"

"It\'s part of my test. I plan to raid the base of Rai and beat him and the Void Assassin. This will make me their commander, and the proof of me being an Overcomer will be set."

"Oh. Well, good luck with that, I guess..." Charles shrugged.

"Hm? Seeker is done with the deals. Great news! We now have the chance to build the Thought Transmitter. And it seems we can finally build one of those!"

"Those? You can\'t mean... a Throne? A Throne for Overcomers?"

"Yes. But we might have to focus on Meng first. And since it\'s him, it won\'t be a Throne.. The Rider needs a Horse, right?" Lynd chuckled.
