Seeing this, Daneel had been surprised initially, but when he remembered that the reptilians on Angaria were actually the descendants of the Basilisk, too, he felt that it was natural.
He did not know exactly how they had come to be, but their relation with that ancient being was unforgettable. After all, their sect was where he had gotten the technique which had resulted in the Basilisk coming to Angaria in the first place.
His familiarity with the races of beings that he had met so far ended here. Of the other two, he focused on the one who had gotten into the argument with the sky first.
He was humanoid, but it looked like he was made up, completely… Of rock.
Daneel had even tried scanning him with the system, and the conclusion was clear: he really was made up of rock, but it wasn't any kind of rock that could be found on Angaria.
The system estimated its toughness to be at such a level that even Daneel would have to go to great effort to break through it, so that meant that in terms of Fighting prowess, this individual was pretty much unrivaled in all of Angaria.
Even his face looked as if it had been chiseled out of the side of a mountain, with rough features and eyes which were the only things that were a different color.
They were a striking, deep black, and the moment he saw them, Daneel felt that they looked as if they were made of the famous obsidian from Earth.
Finally, he laid his eyes on the third individual, who was the biggest of them all.
While the others were of average height, he was at least 9 foot tall, with bulging muscles that were barely being contained by the vest-like garment that he was wearing. All three were dressed in the same way, and bemusedly, Daneel got the thought that they almost looked like waiters from his home planet.
If it weren't for the cloaks made of snake scales which they wore on their shoulders, they would definitely have fit the part that had appeared in his mind.
Shoving away this thought, he once again focused on the main aspect of this third individual which stood out: he was clearly descended from either a cat, or a tiger.
His face was definitely that of a feline, albeit enlarged to fit his large body.
The fur was a deep orange, and Daneel was pretty sure that if he could just remove that towering body, then that face would definitely be loved and adored the entire world over if they were on Earth.
Even as he studied them, they seemed to be studying him, and the nearer they came, the more their arrogance started to disappear.
This was definitely due to the attack that was forming above them, as they could clearly tell that it could kill an Amateur Hero in one strike.
Of course, it wasn't fatal for them, but it could definitely at least damage them if it struck multiple times, which was the reason behind their change in expression.
That was the true, absolute power that the Godnet was capable of, and it wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't actively pulling Energy from the entire continent. The Godnet was not by sources of Energy that had already been extracted, such as Ether blocks or Ker gems. Instead, its tendrils reached deep into the core of the continent, where it absorbed the Energy that was naturally emitted by rich Energy sources, which would be wasted as these locations couldn't be mined.
Normally, because the actual Ether blocks and Ker Gems wouldn't be disturbed, the Energy could perpetually be generated just like a Natural Energized Training chamber, and in dire circumstances, it was even capable of depleting them, too, if needed.
When Daneel had been deploying it, he had been quite surprised to see that the Emperor had even mapped out the underground reserves that would be utilized to power the Godnet. These reserves had been detected in the age of the Empire but had not been excavated as they were located too deep underground to make sense for a lot of resources to be spent to reach them, while others were much more accessible.
The Emperor had also posited that these might actually be the core Energy resources of the continent, and that tampering with them too much might even mess with the same veil that he had disturbed mistakenly to attract that ancient enemy which had been driven away at such great cost.
Hence, unless it was absolutely necessary, only the Energy being naturally emitted would be used, and in this case, it was more than enough to present a threat to the three who had finally reached Daneel.
They hovered for a few moments in the sky, before the reptilian stepped forward and spoke.
"We were warned that there was more to the ruler of this scrap of land than meets the eye… And it turns out that it's true! Clearly, our information personnel are wrong - any place which becomes capable of using a continent-wide formation is worthy of being upgraded in the global list of forces. As soon as we return, the necessary changes will be made. But before that, let us introduce ourselves. Her grace, the All-powerful and infinitely beautiful Basilisk of the invincible TriCobra Sect has sent us to be of help to our new allies, who will apparently play a major role in our future. For the life of me, I cannot see how you can ever grow to be of any use to anyone outside of this small backward place you've managed to take control of. But her grace is wise, so I shall be of service, even though the three of us are sure that there must be some mistake. The stone-headed dolt who picked an argument is Borock, son of Gorock. Yes, their race is appalling when it comes to names. The other one is called Feralt. Compare him to a certain furry animal and he WILL go berserk. Finally, I am Husare, direct descendent of the privileged line of the Basilisk. I will be taking the lead on all operations we conduct, here. Now, then, if its all the same to you, I would like to be off this forsaken rock as quickly as possible. If you're ready, let us deal with that eye now. You can just stay behind and watch- we don't expect you to have any impact, anyway. Get ready to be awed by the way true experts act. Squad, begin to move out!"
