"Once there are only hybrids, no one will be different from each other, and thus no one will ever be shunned anymore. This world may not deserve what I do, but it needs to be done. I will become it's messiah," Jha'Akim said.
"You act like a victim in all of this, but fail to see that you are becoming the oppressor. You killed hundreds of thousands of beasts in revenge—"
"It's not about revenge anymore. I have had my fill of revenge. I've had enough time to realize that my days of revenge are over. What starts now are my days of bringing salvation to this planet," Jha'Akim said.
"By turning humans and beasts alike into Hybrids?" Ning asked. "I foiled your organizations and you killed the beasts. So there shouldn't be any way for you to make more hybrids."
"I've kept some reserves," Jha'Akim said. "Also, the hybrids don't necessarily have to be from beasts that contain the blood of the legendary beasts. I've prepared normal beasts' essence for this task as well."
"And you are sure you can turn all of the humans and beasts into hybrids? You do remember that even your own organization had a very high failure rate, right?" Ning asked.
"I do," Jha'Akim said. "But that is a sacrifice that I'm willing to make."
"You might say that, but I won't let you," Ning said. "I'm going to keep fighting with you until you're either dead or imprisoned once more. None of this hybrid nonsense."
"If you wish to, you may fight me," Jha'Akim said as he snickered a little. "But I was never planning to do any of what I said anyway."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What? But you just said…" Ning was confused.
"Hehehe, let me say it again. 'I' was never planning to do any of it," Jha'Akim said with a wicked smile.
Ning's brain churned and his eyes opened wide. "Your perfected hybrids," Ning said with shock.
"I have my people working for me, so I won't have to do anything myself. You are a step slow already, my friend. The moment I escaped, the clock already started ticking. In less than 3 hours, it should be done," Jha'Akim said.
"Until then, you can stay and keep talking, or you can go and try stopping my people."
Jha'Akim kept on laughing as he flew down to the center of the island and sat next to the lake while Ning kept on flying in the air, trying to think of some solutions.
"The hybrids, I need information about the hybrids," he thought. Jha'Akim thought his plan was almost guaranteed because there was no way for Ning to find and stop the hybrids in any way.
Little did he know that such information were very easy for Ning to find.
"System, give me a list of all the hybrids that work for Jha'Akim, alongside their current location," He said. He took one last glance at Jha'Akim before teleporting out.
He needed to take care of the matter at hand before he came back for him again.
A list of information, alongside an approximate location of where the hybrids were popped into Ning's head.
"Oh no," he thought as he saw nearly hundreds of names on the list and they were all over the planet.
"I have to start somewhere," he thought and teleported to the first location on the list. When he reappeared, he was on top of one of the forests.
"This is the southern continent?" Ning wondered and looked around, searching for the hybrids.
He was in an approximate location from the hybrid and had to ask the system to locate the person once more.
When the system did, he teleported once more. The next time he reappeared he was about a few kilometers away from his original location, directly face to face with a girl that was flying through the air.
She saw Ning appear out of thin air and was surprised. "Who are you? How did you… just now…" she asked.
Ning looked up and down at the normal-looking human girl. He couldn't see a single beastly feature in her anyway.
He quickly used omni analysis to confirm that she was in fact the hybrid he was looking for.
"But… you look like a human," Ning asked in confusion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"I look like a human?" the girl asked with caution. "Why would you say that?"
"Because I know you're not one. You have the blood essence of the Lightning Panther and the Ice Vulture, and hundreds of other minor beasts from what I can see," Ning said.
"You, who are you?" the girl asked.
Ning didn't answer her. He didn't have the time to. He looked at her and searched for some sort of storage bag on her.
He noticed a few and pulled it towards him. The girl saw her storage bags rip away from inside her robes and fought to pull them back, but she couldn't stop it at all. Ning was just too strong.
Ning took the storage bag and started looking through it. He searched for any sort of medical equipment or artifacts that could be hiding some sort of mechanism to turn humans and beasts into hybrids.
It took him half a minute to look through it all, but he couldn't find any. "The hell, how is he planning on turning them into hybrids without anything to carry those many—" Ning's eyes went wide and he looked at the girl.
"Oops, was I caught?" she said with a grin.
"Don't—"
BOOM
The girl exploded her Nascent soul, turning the entire surrounding into a bloody mist. The hundreds of blood essence inside of her were now moving around, looking for something to inhabit.
"Shit!" Ning thought as every single droplet of the blood started approaching him. High in the air, he was the only person the blood essences flew towards.
Ning tried thinking of a way to stop it all, but it didn't seem like they could be stopped. Even when he made a barrier with his Qi, the blood essence easily penetrated through it all and came up to his body.
"Dammit!" he cried out.. He needed to think of something very fast.
