So I did it quietly... After hearing Denton's words, Adnis couldn't help but open his eyes wide, surprised by Denton's sudden change in attitude.
Although surprised, Adnis persuaded Denton.
"Denton, Edith's eye-soul system is perfect. The people of the beholder world are living a happy life in the eye-soul system created by Edith..."
"Perfect? A happy life?"
In response, Denton couldn't help laughing out loud and interrupted Adnis.
"If this is the case, then why do some people continue to agree with my ideas and ask for transformation? Lord Adnis."
Denton's words stung Adnis's heart.
"Shut up!"
"It's you who should shut up, Adnis! The eye-soul system created by Edith has damaged human hearts. Why didn't you notice this? Are you still the leader of everyone!?"
Facing Adnis's scolding, Denton blocked it with a very strong tone.
"The happiness that can only be obtained by relying on the Great Eye will one day collapse. That kind of future is not the future of the beholder world! That kind of life is not the life that humans should live!"
"Then the research on creating life can create the future of the beholder world? Is living with a modified body the life that humans should live?"
"That's for the study of human evolution! My purpose is not to transform the human body, but to promote the evolution of humans themselves! Why can't you understand? Adnis! The point is not to live with the transformed body, but to live with it The life of your own body! We should be independent, we have been before, and we should be in the future, but in the future created by you and Edith, we will become a race that cannot survive once we leave the Great Eye!"
"Why can't you understand? The Great Eye will never leave! So, restore the transformed people!"
"...It's really annoying. If you ask the person involved in this kind of thing, you will understand. No one is willing to do it."
As a result, neither Denton nor Adnis could convince the other.
In this case, if you want to stop Denton, you can only restrict Denton's actions.
Adnis was prepared to resort to force.
"Denton, if you insist on doing this, I will have to keep you under guard."
"Heh, if you can do it."
Denton's calmness and confidence come from his powerful body that has completed its final evolution and gained immortality.
As Denton said, no one can stop Denton from staying or going.
Of course, the purpose is to prove that Denton's idea is correct and that he did not do anything bad to Adnis and Edith who was late.
He just advised them not to do anything and just watch quietly. Time will prove that he is right.
Then, Denton, who walked onto the street, changed his usual caution and began to openly and openly promote his ideas and rally his compatriots.
At the same time, just as Adnis was unable to persuade Denton, Denton's persuasion to Adnis had no effect at all.
Despite the pain and annoyance, Adnis's idea of stopping Denton from continuing to transform people has not changed at all. He asked Edith to find a way to defeat Denton, and he went to the prayer room to meditate with prayer.
…
When Adnis walked out of the prayer room, Gaylo, who had been waiting for a long time, quickly knelt down on one knee and reported the situation to Adnis.
"Sir Adnis, there are reports that the number of people gathered by Denton's speech in the street has exceeded a hundred people, and it is still growing!"
"So many...does he really want to reform everyone?"
"Yes."
Gairo's affirmative answer forced Adnis to face reality.
Because even now, Adnis still has many unbelievable emotions in his heart.
He must be stopped...
Just when Adnis was about to order Gairo to stop Denton's speech, Adair hurried from the door.
"Father, suddenly a large number of people woke up while sleeping."
Adair brought even worse news.
"It must be those who agree with Denton's idea who took the initiative to shatter their eyes and souls and return to their bodies. Moreover, the number of people is still increasing. The guards alone can no longer stop them. There are already many of them. People poured into the streets.”
Hearing those people's choices, the disbelief in Adnis's eyes became even stronger.
"How could it be so fast..."
At the same time, I felt like I couldn't breathe.
Could it be that I was really wrong?
No, that's not right! Denton is the one who is wrong. If this continues, the beholder world will be over, so we must stop him no matter what!
Adnis once again strengthened his resolve.
He ordered Gairo to immediately take people into the sleeping room to stop those who woke up.
But he also asked Gailuo not to harm those who woke up, because they were also important people in the beholder world.
"yes."
Gailuo took the order and left.
"I'm going to see what's going on on the street."
After saying that, Adair also resigned and left.
Adnis, who was left alone, looked at the direction where Gairo and Adair left, and his face was gradually filled with a deep uneasiness.
"Nasty feeling..."
Then, that bad feeling came true...in the worst way possible!
…
Between deep sleep.
Because of Adnis' order to "do no harm to those who wake up," although the soldiers led by Gairo were fully armed, they were still forced to fight against those who were unarmed and whose bodies were still weak due to long periods of sleep. A confrontation.
"Don't go out!"
The number of people waking up continued to increase, and the situation continued to deteriorate, but Jailo could only shout at the top of his lungs.
"Go back to your cabins!"
However, at this moment, Chloe suddenly broke in from the door, easily broke the soldiers' blockade, and led those who woke up to rush outside.
"Stop that woman!"
Gairo gave the order.
The soldiers began to use their weapons.
But Chloe cut off the soldiers' weapons with her bare hands.
Denton's enhanced device gave Chloe powerful physical abilities, giving Chloe unimaginable combat power.
And this kind of Chloe gave those who woke up even stronger confidence.
Believing more and more that their choice was right, they ran out of the sleeping room in the direction directed by Chloe without hesitation.
Chloe, who stayed behind to break up, was regarded as an unintentional puppet by Gairo and others because of her beautiful appearance and expressionless fighting style.
Then, Chloe backed away.
Jailo immediately sent people to chase him.
As a result, until the end, they failed to bring those who woke up back to their slumber.
And those who left eventually gathered around Denton, accepted Denton's enhanced transformation, and joined Denton's camp.
Then the same thing happens from time to time.
Denton wakes up the people who want to follow him one by one, and then Chloe picks them up from their slumber.
As more people gathered around Denton, Adnis began to worry.
But no matter how he strengthens the guard between the slumbers, Denton will succeed in the end.
Because Chloe is no longer alone either.
She has an army of cyborg soldiers at her disposal.
This small-scale confrontation has continued for decades.
During this period, in order to cope with the powerful combat power of the Cyborgs, Edith and his assistant Igor began to develop a system for using the beholder's eye soul to fight.
But even with such a weapon, Adnis still has no intention of actually starting a war with Denton's camp.
Those who have accepted the transformation are also important people in the beholder world... With this thought in mind, Adnis suppressed all suggestions of "fighting".
Adnis's hesitation led to more and more followers following Denton.
The strengths of both camps were quickly equalized.
The confrontation that was originally only between sleeping people gradually expanded, and conflicts between the two camps were almost everywhere.
During this period, the goals of the reformists were always clear.
However, the Eye Soul Sect has almost always been at a disadvantage because of the disqualification of its leader Adnis.
"Why doesn't Lord Adnis fight?"
Piling up alongside dissatisfaction is skepticism about Adnis's philosophy.
"Did Adnis acknowledge Denton?"
If this continues, I'm afraid it won't be long before the Eye Soul Sect begins to collapse from within.
Adnis noticed this and finally realized that he had to make a decision.
But before that, Argos, Alan and Gairo had already stood up for the people who supported the Eye Soul Sect, and started a real battle with the Reform Sect with the determination to kill each other.
After learning of this situation, Adnis finally made a decision.
Determined to end the battle quickly and reduce casualties, he issued an order for an all-out war with the Denton camp.
The war has begun.
But it was completely different from what Adnis expected...
This war has lasted for hundreds of years!
