Chapter 31: Rank 3

Chapter 31: Rank 3

John soon found himself surrounded by this new race.

They were approaching him with weaponry quite advanced.

John was shocked by what he saw while searching through their history using his A.I Chip.

This was a proud race called 'Godkillers'

During the divergence point. All supreme beings that through bad luck found themselves on this planet. They were trapped and imprisoned by this race.

They had disguised their entire planet. The technology was on another level. That even though John saw the entire history of the universe from beginning to end. He had never thought there would be a race that was not only aware of his peeking, but had safeguarded themselves from both him and Ygriognu.

John wouldn't have known about them at all if he hadn't ran into them. You could say he was extremely lucky to happen to pass through their territory.

The more John looked into their technology. The greedier he became.

A godkiller approached John and spoke:

"You have invaded our territory and have broken countless laws. You are under arrest."

"What am I being arrested for?"

The godkiller was surprised John had understood them.

"T-That's classified!"

Another godkiller put his hand on the original ones shoulder.

"You are a specimen to be studied. Just like the others that have came before you."

"Oh really? What are my rights?"

"A alien has no rights! You aren't a citizen! You should be grateful we allow you to live."

As John was talking. He was stalling and infiltrating their technology using the A.I Chip.

He put an emergency protocol called 'Freedom'.

He had established an artificial intelligence on their servers.

The phrase needed to unlock this mode was 'It's all in the spin'.

Why did John do this? John knew that their technology was on another level. They had means of disabling his soul abilities and filtering out the aura in his body.

You must remember. His A.I Chip is powered off of slight amounts of aura.

"Are you planning to fight? Or do you surrender?"

John knew he could escape any time. So he wasn't in too much of a hurry. He had already infiltrated most of this worlds systems.

He naturally knew what sort of restrictions he would be under.

He had access to the recording devices and saw countless supreme beings locked in prison. These were reality warping beings. Yet, they were being treated like mortals.

This race had imprisoned and even permanently killed off many supreme beings. Now John had seen too much. They didn't plan to let him go.

John himself wouldn't reveal his cards and effective immortality.

John pretended to hesitate and looked around at all the special guns pointed at him.

Unauthorized use: this story is on Amazon without permission from the author. Report any sightings.

"I surrender!"

John's battle suit vanished.

He breathed in the fresh air.

"Where did your suit go?"

John lied:

"Soulverse."

A godkiller walked up to him and placed a soul lock on his neck. This adjusted to his skin almost fusing with his body.

John felt that his rank had dropped to zero for his soul. This device seemed to produce soul waves that interfered with the functionality of the soul.

But that wasn't the only thing they did.

On the right leg they put a strength lock on his ankle.

John felt his strength acquired through his training and body tempering was brought down to the level of an ordinary person!

He couldn't help but want this technology for himself!

His A.I Chip was still functional. His 'will' was also working.

John knew exactly where they were taking him. To a prison for literal gods.

Soon they arrived at a floating island. Once John crossed the barrier he felt the aura get forcefully pulled out of his body.

His A.I Chip almost completely stopped working.

As they were having him processed... they scanned his body and found nanites. They had him walk through a special EMP field that killed off everything on him.

John hadn't felt so weak in years.

Once they were done processing him. He was taken to his cell. It looked like a room somebody would spend their time in, while at a mental hospital.

"Don't try to hurt or kill yourself. We will paralyze you if you are troublesome."

"Got it... what happens to my spaceship?"

"That is no longer your property. You are a specimen to be studied."

"Can I make a request?"

"No."

He was then left alone in his room.

John wasn't in any hurry to leave this place. He was enjoying the 'unique' experience.

His processing power had dropped down to being at the level of an ordinary person. There was no aura to manipulate. This could be fixed, as he had mutant crystals in his storage space.

But he wasn't trying to break out yet. He had an easy way to escape at any moment. He also had more nanites in his storage space.

The environment he was kept in lacked aura to refine. But dying could restock all his energy sources.

His true existence was unaffected by their means, and continued to fill up his third layer with green source.

10 hours later he was brought food.

He didn't eat it. Who knew what they did to the food?

8 hours later... they said he could spend an hour in the park.

He decided to get some fresh air and walk around the park. It was surrounded by forest.

"This is a unique opportunity to train!"

John's senses were dulled. He was even a little paranoid thinking they drugged his food which he didn't eat.

Because his senses were so dull. Perhaps breaking through to rank 3 would be easier?

He might as well use this chance to 'connect' with nature!

John walked while meditating and trying to feel the life force of his environment.

He only spent an hour before being taken back to his cell. On his way back, he ran into a god.

The god didn't recognize him and just assumed he was some god.

Everyone was rank zero here. So all those arrested assumed everyone else were unlucky gods.

John's life continued...

After a few weeks... he could successfully tap into his environment and pull energy from it.

He had become rank 3!

He then mentally began to design his rank 4 ability. But it was too hard without his A.I Chip to help with processing power.

"Perhaps it is time that I've left."

John knew he was being monitored by the godkillers.

Both audio and video.

He had left a program that would be activated by his voice saying a specific set of words. His artificial intelligence had been monitoring him.

He spoke loudly:

"It's all in the spin!"

His secret program activated.

His soul and strength lock fell off. His cell flashed red and opened up.
