Endless Journey: Infinite Realms 434 Queen Hydra

While Wisteria was busy dealing with three Alex look-alikes, a slight disturbance along the defensive shield of the institute suddenly appeared.

This disturbance only happened in a short amount of time, that nobody in the Institute noticed this.

The only evidence of this event was the two people who suddenly rushed away from the Institute, flying in such speeds that nobody present was able to detect their departure.

These two people were flying in opposite directions away from each other, with their movements greatly dedicated to improving their speed.

"…"

If anyone can closely see the appearances of these two, they will surely be surprised, as these two also had the same face and appearance as Alex.

They shared the similar facial features with Black Alex and White Alex, although their color schemes were vastly different.

One of them was wearing a metallic vest lidden with glowing blue threads sewn into his body. He was also wearing a blue helmet which hid his hair perfectly. This Alex, whose overall appearance appeared to be blue, was currently flying directly towards the site where Delia had her battle.

As for the remaining Alex, this one also has a different color theme. He was wearing a silky golden robe, which was paired with a small crown affixed on the top of his head. Combine these clothes with a golden scepter in his hands, and it was clear that this man was living for gold.

There was a confident and arrogant expression on this Alex's face as he flied straight towards the nearest building. As for why he was going to this place, it is not yet clear, although the way that he moved made it obvious that he was going to do something important there.

"Hmm… I think I should make use of my time in this world already. If I don't do it, then it might be in vain once Emperor LItch devours me…" Golden Alex could be heard muttering these words to himself as he got closer and closer to his target building.

The confidence on his face did not disappear after he said these ominous words, although it was quite obvious that he was slightly unhappy now.

This unhappiness was easily buried under this Alex's façade, and it appeared as if he was doing this best to not show it.

This became more apparent from the next words that he had uttered.

"Hmph, why am I even worrying now? As long as my other counterparts manages to do their jobs right, then we will prevail in the end! Just you wait, Emperor! It will not be you who devours me! It will be I who will obtain everything from you!" Golden Alex declared boisterously as he raised his fist. There was a tinge of greed on his eyes as he said these words, making him appear more hostile than before.

"Wait, so what I should do again? Oh right, I think I must display my skills to the audience first. Oh, there's a kid right there. Maybe she would like a stuffed toy from me…"

"…." While Golden Alex was saying these words, Blue Alex on the other hand was just silent.

Streaks of electricity raced across his body as he flew towards the site of the battle, which was now replaced a numerous craters.

Blue Alex did not give any visible reaction at the damage made by the battle, as he only continued heading towards the epicenter of the largest crater.

There appears to be a sense of purpose in the eyes of Blue Alex, making anyone who saw him back away. After all, even if Blue Alex did not display his intentions with his words, his actions alone were enough to stop people from apprehending him.

And besides, the power emanating out of Blue Alex's body was also enough to intimidate even the police surrounding the area. Blue Alex just appeared to be too powerful that no one had the courage to delay him.

Whether Blue Alex was pleased by this arrangement or not is unknown, as he still kept his poker face along the way.

INSIDE ALEX'S SOULSCAPE

"Hooh… so the mirror worked. I was able to… divide myself into 5 people…." Alex, who was currently in his soul form, muttered to himself as he sat cross-legged on the floor. "That's a good sign."

There was only an expression of relief and determination on his face as he kept his soul from roaming inside his soulscape.

"Well, Asteria told me before that the mirror will work, although I can only use it on limited amount of time. But hearing her say the effects compared to experiencing the effects really are two different things…" Alex continued to say as he shrugged his shoulders.

"This… this just feels weird. I feel like I am living in 5 bodies at once, although I can also feel that these bodies are controlled by my powers too. This is just… something that is hard to fathom."

Just like what Alex had said earlier in the comfort room, his transaction with Asteria allowed him to gain three items that he bought with his lifespan.

One of these items was the mirror that he shattered and ate earlier.

This mirror, which was called as the Queen Hydra's Mirror, was a unique treasure that is meant to be used by people practicing in multiple Power Systems.

The more Power Systems that a person has, the more effective the effects of the Queen Hydra's Mirror will be on that person.

The effect of this mirror is just simple.

Those who shatters and eats this mirror will for a limited amount of time, have his/her body split into a set number of new bodies.

The amount of these bodies will depend on the amount of Major Powers that this person had, with more powers meaning more bodies.

This means that for a person that had 3 Major Powers in his body, his body will be split into three, with each body sharing similarities with the person's original body.

Each one of these body will be controlled by the person's Major Power, with one body controlled by one Major Power.

As for the original person, his soul will be kept inside his soulscape, and in that place, he can act as a general, giving commandments on his split bodies.

If he wants one of his bodies to do a task, he can say it directly to this body, and that body will follow him. The execution of this task however will depend on the Major Power controlling this body, so proper wording must be used to relay the task.

After Alex bought the Queen Hydra's Mirror from Asteria, he naturally had heard her talking about all of its effects. At that time, he only felt curious and interested from what he heard.

But now that he actually used it on himself, Alex can definitely say that using this mirror is one of the weirdest things that he had ever felt in his life…

"Damn, this is just really weird. Because of that mirror, my body was split into 5, with each portion controlled by one of my Major Powers. As for me, I am currently stuck here in my soulscape, and the only thing that I can do now is to give commands to my bodies…" Alex muttered to himself as his soul flickered, showing the incredulity that he is feeling right now.

Even though he had already prepared himself before he used the Queen Hydra's Mirror, Alex was still taken aback by its effect, and the only thing that he can do now is to shake his head as he tried to use the mirror to its fullest potential.

"So my Esper Ability, Abyss Magic, Conqueror's Aura, Immortal Cultivation, and Superhero Power were the ones controlling my bodies right now. Good thing these 5 are not stupid." Alex thought to himself as he felt his connection with his 5 bodies.

Due to his connection with the bodies, he can see what his bodies saw, and he can also feel what these bodies felt. This allowed him to observe everything from the perspective of his 5 bodies, making it easier for him to refine his makeshift plan.

"So Black Alex(Abyss Magic), White Alex(Immortal Cultivation), and Kid Alex(Superhero Power) are all meeting up with Wisteria and her students. That's good. Now all that they have to do is to follow my instructions, and it will be easy for them to obtain the storage vault inside the Institute." Alex thought to himself as he observed the interactions made by Black Alex and White Alex.

"…" Alex had high expectations for these three when they began talking with Wisteria, as he thought that they might have the right mindset for a proper conversation.

But this 'high expectation' of Alex eventually disappeared as the conversation between Wisteria and his three bodies went on.

"Ugh!"

Alex winced as he heard the words that Black Alex and White Alex uttered, making him wish that these two were mute. Kid Alex did not help the situation by acting shy and withdrawn. All in all, these three appeared to be a lost cause in terms of public relations, something with had greatly infuriated Alex.

"What the hell? Black Alex, why are you talking about the Abyss while you are there? If you continue spouting that crap, someone might think that you are crazy! And you, White Alex. Who the f**k do you think cares about the Dao in this world? This world has a different power system, you dolt! So don't push your beliefs on them!" Alex roared out from inside his soulscape.

He made sure that these words of his were heard by Black Alex and White Alex, as this was his only hope of making them shut up.

This rant of his appeared to have worked, as both Black Alex and White Alex closed their mouths with unwilling expressions on their faces.

Alex naturally ignored the sullen expression of these two as he continued to give out 'advices' from his location.

"As for you, Kid Alex. Why are you acting shy? Even if you are still the weakest among my powers, you cannot act like you are weak! You have the highest potential out of my powers, so you should act like you are the best! Don't just hide behind White Alex. Show yourself and make the others know what a bigshot you really are!" Alex said, with these words focused to Kid Alex alone. Whether Kid Alex heard this advice of his was unknown, as Kid Alex continued to hide behind White Alex.

"…Fine. You three are doing good. Just don't do something extravagant right now." Alex said in a low tone as he kneaded his temple(Can you even do that in your soul form?) "And remember what I told you earlier. If you follow that, the contents of the Storage will be ours for the taking…"

After he gave these words to these three, Alex let out a sigh as he now placed his attention on Golden Alex.

Goldein Alex, which was controlled by Alex's Conqueror's Aura, was still flying through the air right now. It was unknown when he would stop from flying like ths, and Alex seemed to show no indication on when he will stop this one.

There was only a sliver of irritation on Alex's face as he observed Golden Alex, with his eyes twitching ever so slightly whenever Golden Alex decides to suddenly show-off to the people around him.

"Golden Alex, I told you to go and fetch Queen Mother and Sierra. I did not tell you to show-off to those people." Alex said in an exasperated tone after he saw Golden Alex giving a rose to a beautiful lady. "I know that you like showing off to people, but you should remember that we are in a tight schedule right now. And besides, having you out here is dangerous, especially if Emperor Litch arrives here. So instead of acting like that, you should just act like a king and do what is necessary for us!"

"…You are a good man, Alex. But sometimes, you are even more overbearing than Emperor Litch himself." Golden Alex replied mentally. "But I like your toughness. You will surely need it once you overthrow Emperor Litch and become a Conqueror yourself."Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"Golden Alex, I will never become like Emperor Litch, so don't expect me to take his mantle. I have better things to do, and becoming an Emperor is not one of them."

"Oh really? That's too bad then. And here I thought you will uphold the wishes of Marie…"

"Whatever I do with Marie's wish is up to me and not you. So you better shut up and do what I told you to do. If not, then I will make sure to paralyze your body. You wouldn't want that now right? Golden Alex?"

"Aww… you really are a spoilsport. But I like that too. I-"

Alex decisively cut-off his connection with Golden Alex as he realized that he was just going around circles with that person.

After taking a few deep breaths to calm himself down, Alex let out a sigh as he focused his attention on Blue Alex.

Blue Alex, which was controlled by Alex's Esper Ability, was doing its intended job. It was currently scouring the site of Delia's battle, looking for signs of life and other special objects.

Alex could not help but feel pleased as he saw Blue Alex's efficiency in his task.

"Blue Alex, you are currently my strongest power, so for you to be this good on following my tasks is just commendable." Alex slowly said as he observed everything that Blue Alex sensed. "Sigh, if the other powers were just following your lead, then maybe I won't have to commandeer all of you. But my luck is not like that, so I guess I should just suck it up and endure…"
