I Can Program My Body? - Chapter 409
Chapter 409: Forbidden Zone
“Stubborn! Don’t you know our importance!”
“You are strong enough, so I thought it didn’t matter if we joined in. The Aqua team would be much more useful defending one side.”
“You!”
Unable to make sense of Elizabeth, Eldora began to rage, exuding pressure that was much stronger than before.
Feeling the full burn of his strength, Elizabeth’s face turned pale.
Seeing his young miss’s face, the guardian beside her acted up, planning to stop Eldora.
As a prodigious talent representing the entire Aqua sector, besides her apparent strength, Elizabeth also had a guard protecting her safety.
Unfortunately, the same could be said of Eldora.
Not wanting his young master to be interfered with, Eldora’s guardian also acted, blocking Elizabeth’s guardian.
With a four-way clash, the room suddenly turned into a field of elements.
“Why? Can’t I choose what task to take? How could you be so domineering? Are you going to send us to death once it doesn’t go your way?” Elizabeth said stubbornly.
Hearing this, the others also reacted.
Especially Lorenzo. Remembering Eldora’s trap earlier, he quickly defended Elizabeth, eyeing the two with interest.
“Eldora, are you a dictator? Since this lady wants to do something different, why don’t you let her be? Unless you can’t really go without her team.”
“That’s right, Eldora. We can take the frontline alone. If you’re scared, you can go to the back.” Lionas, an admirer of Elizabeth, muttered.
Although he was scared of Eldora, he couldn’t stand the idea of Eldora bullying a girl.
“Eldora, you are just a coordinator. Not really our leader. If we want something else, we can!” Blair also muttered in defiance.
“Tsk, Eldora, are you getting soft? Should we pass the leadership to another? I’m willing to take your throne if you can’t bear its weight.” Varra, the leader of the Vortan Team, second only to the Solaris Team, said with a smirk.
Although weaker than Eldora, his strength was greater than that of the other three prodigious talents.
Having mastered a thousand elements, he was still only a little further from Eldora.
Realizing he was outnumbered, Eldora quickly calmed down.
However, before he could utter his words, the pressure he was exuding was blocked and turned back toward him.
“Who?”
Scanning the crowd, he quickly saw the culprit who dared to challenge him head-on.
“Nash? What do you mean?” Eldora asked, his killing intent about to flare up.
From the top alliances’ attempt to delay time, Lazaro’s presumptuousness, Elizabeth’s contradiction, and the other great teams’ challenge, Eldora had had enough.
Looking toward Nash, he was ready to do some killing.
“I’m just testing how it feels to pressure others whenever you want.” Nash sat down lazily.
Every time Eldora didn’t want something, he seemed to use his strength to pressure others into agreement.
Having had enough of his charades, Nash tried his own.
“Hmph! You dare!”
Erupting with the power of elements, Eldora’s pressure began to skyrocket.
However, not backing down, Nash continued exerting pressure, merging with the celestial beasts one by one.
Suddenly, as the elements swirling around grew stronger and stronger, a snap seemed to echo in the air as all their power was sapped out of their bodies.
“This— the forbidden zone?”
“Did the mysterious beast use its ability?”
“I can’t feel any ounce of my power…”
“Even my physical strength seems non-existent!”
Shocked, they forgot their earlier clash as they investigated their bodies in alert.
Being in the most vulnerable state, they tried activating their defensive treasures one after another.
Unfortunately, the forbidden zone, deployed by the mysterious beast, also included treasures.
Turning them into vulnerable chicks, they looked at each other defensively.
Meanwhile, Nash, feeling his strength sapped out of his body, began to see if he could activate the [Overlimit Module System].
In such a state, he could only rely on his module system for anything that might come.
Unfortunately, after the [Overlimit Module System] turned a notch, he felt his power increase, then vanish just as instantly.
“This forbidden zone…”
Instead of banning everything, it was more like reverting them to their initial state.
Any power thereafter would be sapped out of thin air.
This meant not only the elements, law, and treasures, but even secret techniques were banned.
Besides being able to move their bodies and stand, they might not even be able to bind a chicken.
“Huh~ What a mysterious beast.” Sitting down, Nash gave up.
At this moment, everyone also calmed down.
They realized even the sharpest sword in their hands had turned into nothing more than a dull stick.
Even if they fought at this moment, besides injuries, no one would even die.
Filling the room with silence, Eldora, who was about to go on a killing spree, also came to his senses.
It seemed that due to a mere woman, he had forgotten his priorities.
He was the successor of the Solari family’s current generation.
Besides power, everything was mere floating clouds passing by.
Instead of wasting his attention on external things, he should concentrate on himself.
Once he was strong, everything would be his to take.
Now, he was just riding the coattails of his family’s power and influence.
Without it, he might just be a regular talent similar to the rest.
Scanning the room, he waved his hand, letting everyone sit.
“Since everyone vouched for the Aqua Team, I’ll permit them to defend our west side. The reward will also be the same as the Star Alliance. Any questions?”
“No, we are fine with that.”
Seeing him calm down to the point where they could no longer read any of his expressions, they also sat in silence.
Following the solemnity, Eldora continued to reiterate the following positions, as well as the proportion of rewards they could receive.
Finally, after finalizing each of their positions, they began discussing various responses and backup plans in case something went wrong.
Then came the listing of various armaments and armies, exchanges between them, and trades of any unused treasures.
“That’s everything. If you don’t have any more questions, let’s end this meeting. Just be prepared. In three days, we’ll begin our attack.” Eldora said, standing up.
Wrapping everything up, Eldora stood and went out of the Convention Hall, as if the earlier fuss had not happened.
