Chapter 1092 Cloning
Every scientist one day wanted to do an experiment and try to clone some creature. Of course, the scientists worked with living beings.
This idea was very simple, but at the same time incredibly appealing. By cloning one creature, the scientist was technically creating a new life simply from nothing.
However, this was not easy, or rather even impossible. Cloning could only be considered successful if the two clones were completely identical, not only in appearance, but also in body, mind, and abilities.
No one could reach that level, not even Nitra who was the Progenitor of Constructs. She had the best technology and resources, as well as one of the highest intellects in the universe, but there was no way she could clone anyone or anything.
'Shit... That bastard... I'm sure his knowledge of science goes no further than the multiplication table, but then why did he surpass me in my own area again?' Nitra internally muttered with a trembling glance at Alucard and his clones.
The flaming spheres continued to rapidly move from one point to another, trying to burn Alucard and his clones, and Alucard didn't even resist. At that moment, he was doing something else.
"Hahaha! Bastard! How about that!" Alucard exclaimed happily before the flames burned him.
"It was easier than I thought!" Alucard shouted mockingly before turning into nothingness.
"You can try all you want! There's no way you can kill me and all my clones!" Alucard shouted with an excited expression.
This pace continued for a while. Alucard was just enjoying the moment while the spheres were trying to kill him.
In fact, Alucard had not won yet, the spheres were moving fast enough to kill him in less than seconds as well as his clones. However, it was impossible to kill an immortal completely and that was obvious.
"Hah, it doesn't matter what happens or who his opponent is. Alucard will always find a way to come out victorious even if it's impossible to win." Gael smirked, enjoying what his best friend was doing.
If he had the chance he would have tried something like this himself, but in his case the situation was completely different.
"Well, sometimes even a draw is a win, isn't it?" Ereg muttered with a deep gaze, staring intently at Alucard.
He was a Progenitor and had heard many rumors about Alucard. They had clashed several times over the past few hundred years, but they had never fought as they had no reason to.
In order for the two Progenitors to start fighting, something very serious must have happened.
If we exclude Alucard from the list since he could be expected to do anything, almost none of the Progenitors had ever fought each other seriously.
A fight between Liang and Nitra was somewhat of a rarity since if either of them died in the end it would change the entire world.
When a race's Progenitor changed, millions of beings would have their lives completely changed, and there was no telling what it could lead to in the future.
Watching this scene and thinking about the battles between the Progenitors, Wain remembered something that happened in the present instead of the past.
'Ezrin... That Angel who recently killed Amitiel... Damn, I thought that nothing else important could happen besides the Second Great War, but this world knows how to surprise.' Wain pondered with a complicated expression.
'I didn't pay much attention to it at the time since my life was at its most important stage then, but what Ezrin did is practically an anomaly. I can't remember the last time one of the Progenitors died, it seemed impossible. Wain internally uttered in a deep tone.
Alucard was immortal, but the other Progenitors could also live so long that to most beings they seemed immortal. They could not regenerate from their hair, but they could live for thousands of years without even a wrinkle on their faces.
Once a creature moves to the Transcendence Stage, it no longer obeys the rules of this world fully, creating its own.
That was why every Progenitor had some sort of Title and perhaps Nila who had also reached the Transcendence Stage would never get her Title. For that, she would have to become much stronger, strong enough to create her own rules that even the entire universe would be powerless against.
Ereg continued to carefully watch Alucard who continued to die with a smile on her face, mocking World of Darkness.
'Hmm... To be honest I thought he would be quite different. It's unlikely that even Gael knows exactly how old Alucard is, but it's obvious that he's pretty damn old. Probably only the Dragon Progenitor is older than him... However, he's acting like a teenager or a child...' Ereg internally muttered with a dazed expression.
Gael smirked, he understood everything from Ereg's look since he had seen this sort of thing many times before. historical
"You don't seem to understand why he's acting like that, do you?" Gael asked with a slight smile on his face.
Ereg shrugged, "Well... I realize that you can't always be serious. After all, most of the time I act pretty active and cocky too. However... he smiles even in this situation."
Ereg continued, "When he threw Nila at Kraken's jaw he didn't look serious, or when he tried to save Kraken from the chains of the World of Darkness."
Gael remained silent, listening intently to Ereg, he was curious to know the thoughts of his longtime adversary. Their fight had been interrupted for an indefinite period, so they could spend that time talking.
In the end, only Alucard would decide when it would be enough to destroy the flaming spheres and defeat the Golem.
"I thought he got serious when World of Darkness attacked but him, but I was wrong. He's just pissed off, and you can't say he's acting at full strength." Ereg sighed, "Damn, he's taunting World of Darkness, even though he hasn't even used his Form."
"There's nothing surprising about that." Gael said calmly as his gaze grew serious, "In hundreds of years, I've only seen a few times when he used Third Gate and only once when he used his Form."
Ereg's eyes went wide, "What...? Only once? Is that possible!"
Gael nodded, "Something like that. His Form has a special purpose, so using it in every battle makes no sense."
Ereg's gaze grew deeper. He didn't ask Gael about what Alucard's Form was like, because he realized that if Gael didn't tell him, he didn't need to know.
"Anyway. You thought he was going to act like an old man, didn't you?" Gael asked, smiling.
"Yeah... I mean, he is The Immortal one, the Progenitor of Vampires, and so on. I'm also a Progenitor like you, but there aren't as many rumors about us as there are about him. Anyway, it was unexpected, but now I realize that's the whole point." Ereg said uncertainly, rubbing his cheek.
"Hmm?" Gael gave him a questioning look. He didn't understand what Ereg was talking about.
"If he was being serious and acting like an old man, it would be boring. It's much more interesting to watch a Vampire Progenitor who acts like a teenager, laughs about his death, and tries to make Kraken his pet.
All while having to fight against World of Darkness because of it. It all sounds like complete bullshit, fiction, but that's what's really going on and it's amazing." Ereg said as his serious face completely changed.
Ereg got a wide smile and an excited expression. He crossed his arms over his chest, turned to Gael, and said, "I want our fight to go the same way. At first, I thought we wanted a serious battle between two old rivals, but now I realize I want something exciting!"
Gael nodded with a slight smile, "Sure. That's no problem, I like that option much better myself. However..."
Gael looked at Alucard, who was surrounded by purple flame spheres.
"First, we need to wait for him to finish and it looks like he's already enjoyed his temporary victory. Now, it's time to turn a temporary victory into a full-fledged victory."
Whoooooooooooooooooooosh.
Alucard swung his arm, thrusting it into his body. It was hard to do without his sharp nails as he bit off his fingers, but his strength was enough to break through his bones.
At the same moment, the flames burned him again, turning him to ash, but Alucard had already done what he wanted.
His bones, organs, and body parts scattered apart, quickly becoming covered in a dense layer of blood and regenerating.
Only the main skeleton, heart, and brain remained of the real Alucard. This time, he cast aside even his skin and hair, all to create as many clones as possible.
"Hehehehe... Now victory is mine..." Alucard chuckled evilly, looking at the hundreds of clones around him.
Now there were enough of them that for each clone it was necessary to waste spheres, which slowed down considerably because of this.
