Supreme Lord: I can extract everything!

965  Lone Hunter

The Hyuman Captain wasn't dead after getting struck by a meteorite. It shook him quite, but the Divine Lifeform didn't die. He unleashed his Projectile Defense Soultrait, a 4-Star Soultrait that protected him against projectiles and survived. But then again, the Hyuman Captain would have survived without his Projectile Defense Soultrait.

He wasn't particularly powerful, and his Soultrait wasn't overly mighty either. In the first place, his lack of combat prowess was why he had been deployed as the Captain of the Hyuman Fortress in such a place. He might be a Divine Lifeform, but his prowess was more baggage than support on the frontlines.

Michael killed the Hyuman Captain and everyone else who survived the meteorite shower. He consumed their corpses using Swallow Domain and transformed them into energy and more Essences through Permute. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

It was possible to consume the entire Hyuman Fortress or what was left of it, but Michael decided against it. The Supreme Human Alliance's people would have to find the remnants of the Hyuman Fortress at some point.

Once he was done hunting the survivors, Michael traveled across the meteorite ring again. The meteorite ring was longer than expected, probably crossing a third of the Novix Galaxy. That was interesting, but it worked well against the Altors Union. Michael noticed that the Supreme Human Alliance had far more civilized planetary systems in the Novix Galaxy than the Altors Union, even though they weren't well protected.

The Altors Union's defenses in the Novix Galaxy were also tens of times higher. The meteorite rings protected the Supreme Human Alliance from dangers that the Altors Union had to face and repel to protect their borders.

At first, Michael thought that it was troublesome and annoying, but his opinion changed quickly. The Novix Galaxy held far more potential than Michael had given to it.

He spent the next four months researching the meteorite ring, spreading True Extraction Essences across the entire length of the meteorite ring while destroying three dozen manned Hyuman Fortresses. Most weren't well protected, but the latter dozen were prepared against an unknown threat. They know that something or someone destroyed the Hyuman Fortresses across the meteorite ring but aren't given ample time to prepare.

No, that wasn't quite right. They were prepared to face a threat at the level of an ordinary Divine Lifeform. However, the time they were given was not enough to deploy more Divine Lifeforms and stronger weaponry to the lackluster prepared Hyuman Fortresses. The authorities were certain the threat could be removed or intimidated by acting like they were fully prepared for an all-out war. Unfortunately, True Vision of Seer showed Michael the truth. The illusions summoned through specific high-quality devices that could fool even Elite Divine Lifeforms didn't work against him.

Michael got rid of the Hyuman Fortresses but changed his tactic a little. He consumed the last two dozen Hyuman Fortresses with Swallow Domain and transformed everything into True Extraction Essences. Thereafter, Michael looked at the corpses and used Mind Watcher to extract their SoulStar Fragments, Soultraits, and Memory Orbs. While their Soultraits were important and the SoulStar Fragments crucial to upgrade Extraction to 9-Star, Michael considered the Memory Orbs of the Hyuman Captains equally crucial. The information he acquired from the Hyuman Captains was far more important than one may think.

'The Supreme Human Alliance has been using this place to nurture Cosmos Beasts and groom them into attacking the Altors Union. It's crazy to think how far the Hyumans will go to win against the Altors Union… cleansing the battlefield and storing the deceased of the Altors Union to feed them to Cosmos Beasts. Sick bastards!'

It was no wonder that the Novix Galaxy was a dangerous place for the Altors Union, while the Supreme Human Alliance had a much easier time expanding and 'protecting' their settlements. The Cosmos Beasts, groomed by the Supreme Human Alliance, performed the goliath portion of protecting the SHA.

That would change soon. Michael's preparations worked well, but it took a while to accumulate the resources needed to change the tide of the Titan War.

Michael's move was going to be the first turning point of the war, A massive change initiated by the Lone Hunter.

One of the conditions he had to complete to initiate his plan was spreading a massive amount of True Extraction Essence across the entire length of the meteorite rings. The other plan was to accumulate exactly 50,000,000 SoulStar Fragments to upgrade Extraction to a 9-Star Soultrait.

Fortunately, collecting this many SoulStar Fragments was a little easier than he'd feared. Divine Lifeforms, especially Lords with large territories, provided close to 100,000 SoulStar Fragments, if not more. Obliterating dozens of Hyuman Fortresses, each usually manned with more than 500 Higher Lifeforms, 2,000 Lesser Lifeforms, and one Divine Lifeform, was quite easy. They were defeated easily with the right tactic but provided enough SoulStar Fragments to upgrade his first Soultrait Symbols to 9-Star. It was only one of many Soultrait Symbols in his Soul Sphere, but the difference was noticeable immediately.

Once upgraded, Extraction didn't unlock any new powers. It put an incredibly heavy pressure on Michael's soul but also aided his soul and mental power to grow. Once it reached 9-Star, Extraction was several times stronger than before. The amount of soul power it acquired from the hundreds of millions of subjects bound to Michael's Lord Powers was several times higher than before. Therefore, the power Michael could unleash with his True Extraction Essences increased a few times. 'I hope you are not going to disappoint me, Fenrir!' Michael screamed in his mind when all preparations had been completed. [Don't worry, pal. Now that Extraction is about to cross the final threshold, I can finally tap some of my true power!]

That being said, Fenrir unleashed his Divinity, merely a fragment, for the first time in eons.

The Wolf Divinity swept through Michael, flooding the gateways of his body until he was overflowing with power. His skin tore open, and his insides started to melt. Fenrir laughed like a maniac.

[Finally, some fun!!]
