Chapter 281 - 281: Lift

"Strong enough… to destroy the entire planet?"

Even though it has been eline concocted their unexpectedly simple plan, Van still had no idea why all this preparation and distraction was necessary According to their intel, the only one that would prove to be a challenge was Sarah's grandfather, Clark Hearst

Other than that, there will only be the enhanced humans as well as one Platinu the place where they are being produced-- the place that their group would be infiltrating

Even Athena herself told Van that with the right plan, even he by himself could conquer the country's Circle He just had to kill Clark before he could detect him as they do not know the extent of his powers

So the reason why they weren't doing just that… was because Herly? What does that even mean?

It wasn't only Van that had a bewildered expression, but Sarah as out of the loop as well She was already told that she was essential to the plan because she would be the one responsible for extracting Herrandfather who created the machinery that I was currently encased in

Hermes's body, with the spine as the center, was also riddled with enores, connected to hundreds of tubes that were then individually connected to a hu a human takes about a week At first, the success rate of the enhancement was less than 30, but with tile one would die, sometimes even none

And the one responsible for all of this was Clark Hearst His control of blood was enough to even manipulate even Hermes Even if he was already deceased and his body already waning and weakened, Hermes was still a God

For this reason, it wasn't enough for just Angela to copy Sarah's [Skills] The success of their plan solely relied on whether Sarah would be successful Of course, Sarah already knew that What she didn't knoever, was that Hermes's body would explode

And not just a norh to wipe out all of them

"Wait, wait," Sarah could not help but suddenly step back, "That's just the worst-case scenario, right?"

"No, it could be even considered light," Angela shook her head, "The worst-case scenario is that ould still be alive after the explosion We would feel ourselves slowly dying as the earth cru--"

"Stop," Sarah pinched the bridge of her nose, "Why wasn't I infor like this, then I would have practiced my skills first"

"Any practice you do would prove to be irrelevant and useless," Athena was the one to answer Sarah, "The only thing it would do is to make your confidence cruets to you"

"Then why tell me now!?"

"Adrenaline"

"That doesn't even ela patted Sarah's leg a few times as she tried to comfort her, "You're the only one who could do this"

"Thanks," Sarah could not help but groan and roll her eyes as she stepped away to collect herself In the end, she just chose to meditate while they wait for their areline," this tiht in his voice, "So you were originally going to do this plan by yourself?"

"Not by myself Everyone here except you and the Olyeline quickly answered as her eyes did not leave the horizon for even a second

"Then ere you going to do if the plan fails and Hermes's body explodes? Just let the rest of us die?" Van blocked Evangeline's view, floating in front of her with his [Air Step] skill

"Everyone except you," Evangeline said as she stepped to the side, "You would have been in one of the Fragmented worlds as I enact this plan You would be safe"

"What did you think would happen if I come back with the world destroyed?"

"You would have found a way to survive, as you always have That is your core, , no eline could even finish her words, a loud explosion erupted from the horizon And as soon as the noise reached their ears, they all looked at each other and nodded Sarah, ason the side, also stood up as she quickly joined the group

"Are you ready, sis?"

"Let's go"

Angelica, Angela's sister, was the first totowards the direction of the reservoir where Her into thin air She was then followed by Angela, who flew into the air before also disappearing, just like her sister

"We'll see you up there, Master," Angela's voice then faded into the distance

"Stay by Artemis's side, blood bender," Athena's voice was firm as she looked at Sarah

"I know," Sarah quickly answered as she let out a long and deep breath before walking behind, "It's the only thing you told me to do"

"Everyone ready?" Athena then said as she suround as they made a sort of wall around the 5 of them

"Hm"
