Just call me Thor

After hearing Cain's story about Maxen, Mike checked his survival rate again.

The probability of him and Professor Gregory returning alive had increased, now over 50%.

However, the probability of Mike returning unscathed with Professor Gregory remained unchanged, still below 15%!

"What a pity. If I had reached level 300, the Eye of Truth could have undergone a second awakening. I missed the chance this time."

Mike thought to himself that if his talent could undergo a second awakening, it might provide more information!

Mike glanced at the time, 9:15 AM.

There were 45 minutes left until the sparring session with Kaelum and the other seniors.

After mentally reviewing everything, Mike confirmed he hadn't missed anything.

In fact, it had been less than 72 hours since the major battle between the two races!

Many of the preparations Mike had made for the last major battle were still in place, ready to use.

Of course, due to Mike's level increase, many items had been replaced.

Mike spent 1 Battle Lord merit to order some items from the Mystic Market.

Combining these with the scrolls and items he had previously discarded, he had Shadow Nine distribute them secretly to Cain, Ethan, and other acquaintances. Mike mainly wanted to benefit Cain, but to avoid making it too obvious, he decided to spread the wealth a bit.

For people like Ethan and Jessica, who came from Battle Chief families, these items and scrolls might not be lacking.

But Cain was different. Every resource he had was utilized to the fullest under Anderson's planning, enhancing Cain's strength.

Only this way could Cain continue to stay in the summer camp and keep getting stronger.

With Mike's secret support, Cain wouldn't need to achieve great feats, but at least his safety would be secure.

"There's still some time. I'll head to the library."

Saying this, Mike left the training hall, leaving Cain to train alone.

At the library, Mike gave Shadow Nine a knowing look. Shadow Nine immediately understood, and the black mist enveloped Mike, while the library's surveillance and monitoring runes entered a pseudo-operational state.

They appeared normal but wouldn't record anything related to Mike.

In the most secure part of the library, there was an archive room.

The archive room contained paper materials, documenting the records of all humans in the corps over the past three hundred years. Each file had been verified by at least two Battle Chiefs and one Battle Lord before being stored in the archive room.

The file Mike wanted to see was also here.

Under the cover of the black mist, Mike sneaked in.

Mike whispered, "If I remember correctly, I have SSS-level access in the human race. Technically, I can enter here, so this isn't really sneaking."

Shadow Nine's raspy voice sounded in Mike's ear, "But you're only level 200 now. You're not a true Supreme Being yet. You have fifteen minutes and can only look at one file."

"Got it, Shadow Nine. Where's your file?"

Mike hadn't taken a step when a blade's gleam appeared behind him.

"Just kidding, just kidding!"

With the Eye of Truth's guidance, Mike headed straight for a corner bookshelf.

The label on the bookshelf: [T]

"Found it!"

Right in front of Mike, the files were neatly arranged on the shelf.

If he pulled out a file to read, it would leave traces.

Fortunately, with the Eye of Truth, Mike didn't need to go through that trouble. He could read the files from a distance!

[Terenas Bloodscribe - 001]

[Male, born in Alaska...]

There was something that had always lingered in Mike's mind, something that bothered him.

On the day he crossed into this world and awakened his SSS-level talent, the fourth demon cult's main base was breached, the fourth demon cult Leader Terenas was severely injured and fled, and his son Arthas Bloodscribe hid in the outskirts of Florida...

It was like toppling a domino, triggering a series of chain reactions.

Mike had been involved in many of the subsequent events:

Terenas was killed by Shadow Nine.

He then reincarnated as Michael, and during the recent major battle, he and Mike exchanged a glance, marking the start of the battle.

Michael, formed from Terenas's remnants, was also the bait to lure out the fourth demon god.

Mike had little interest in him.

But Terenas was different.

He had been a meritorious Battle Chief of the human race, but due to a single sentence from his son, he betrayed humanity and joined the demon god.

This led to a series of subsequent events.

Mike was very curious about that sentence.

What kind of words could make a meritorious Battle Chief change his stance and betray humanity?

Moreover, Terenas's subsequent behavior was also strange.

Terenas didn't seem like a demon cult Leader but more like an undercover agent within the enemy ranks.

Just the list of high-ranking members of the fourth demon cult was a crucial document. Yet, Terenas had left it in an inconspicuous safe house, which Mike eventually found and reported.

Something was off.

Given Terenas's meticulous nature, he shouldn't have made such a mistake.

Unless he did it on purpose!

Before and after the major battle, Mike privately investigated some things, such as the history of the human race over the past hundred years.

Seeing is believing!

In the face of the Eye of Truth, many secrets couldn't be hidden.

Mike learned:

During the rise of Supreme Being [Apollo], all demon cults on Earth were uprooted and completely eradicated!

The remaining demon cult followers had their identities exposed and fled to the Abyssal Plane.

About thirty-six years ago, [Apollo] finally became a Supreme Being and entered the ninety-ninth floor of the Tower of Truth. His true form never left the Tower of Truth again.

The human race officially entered a period of recuperation.

From then on, the chains around the demon cult's neck loosened, and they began to revive.

However, Mike noticed that there were two types of demon cults: [Exiled Demon God] and [Primordial Demon God].

The demon cults under the [Exiled Demon God] seemed active but caused minimal damage, more like... a performance?

In plain terms, the high-ranking members of these demon cults might be on either side.

And the [Exiled Demon God] was actually related to the [Supreme Demon God].

The talents of the human race's potential Supreme Beings might also be related to the [Supreme Demon God]!

Planting undercover agents to gather intelligence was a reasonable strategy.

Following this line of thought.

A bold guess: the demon cult Leaders under the Exiled Demon God might all be undercover agents!

Terenas might also be an undercover agent!

Such a thing was definitely within Shadow Nine's capabilities!

But here's where the contradiction lies!

Terenas had the potential to be an undercover agent and exhibited undercover behavior, almost holding a sign saying 'I'm an undercover agent.'

Yet, this person was killed by Shadow Nine!

Twice!

The second time was right in front of Mike, with no chance of deception!

If Terenas was truly an undercover agent, how could he have been killed?

The human race, especially its high-ranking members, were very kind and generous to their own, never shortchanging anyone.

Mike was the best example.

Flipping through Terenas's file, Mike muttered to himself, "Is it possible that Terenas betrayed humanity, made a grave mistake, and then reformed?"

Something was off, very off.

His entire behavior pattern was chaotic, like he had split personalities.

One moment a meritorious Battle Chief, the next a traitor to humanity.

One moment a demon cult Leader, the next an undercover agent for humanity.

Mike's intuition told him the problem lay in what Arthas had said to his father back then!

Mike was currently reading the [Terenas File], officially compiled by the university alliance and the corps command center.

In reality, since over thirty years ago, it had been recorded by the [Mystic Market]!

And as a Battle Lord-level powerhouse, Terenas's file required verification by one of the Supreme Beings before being archived!

The likelihood of forgery was very low!

As the file flipped, Terenas's life played out like a slideshow before Mike's eyes.

"Here it is!"

[Ninth-tier Battle Chief Terenas stationed at the Blood Sea Abyss with the corps, ambushed, corps suffered heavy casualties]

[Sixth-tier Battle Lord, corps commander, Terenas's mentor Darian died in this battle]

[The next day, Maxen entered the Blood Sea Abyss to avenge Darian]

[Terenas, still recovering from injuries, returned to Earth for treatment. His son Arthas Bloodscribe (A member of the fourth demon cult) visited him, and they had a conversation....]

Reading the file, Mike's suspicions were half-confirmed.

The Supreme Beings had long known about Terenas's defection to the demon cult!

Or rather, Apollo had known all along.

The corps was decimated, his mentor killed, and he himself gravely injured. Terenas had hit rock bottom.

At that moment, his son visited, making it highly likely he could persuade Terenas to defect.

Mike focused and continued reading the file.

[During their argument, Arthas first raised a question.]

[Arthas: You always say that humanity fears no death and that the strong come first. Then tell me, why have I only seen Battle Lords and Battle Chiefs die in battle, but never an Ultimate Battle Lord?]

[Arthas: Maxen is the godson of a Supreme Being, so he doesn't have to die. But why didn't the Supreme Being take Darian as a godson, so he wouldn't have to die either!]

[The next day, Terenas defected to the fourth demon cult, killed a human Battle Chief, and with the help of the fourth demon god, ascended to Battle Lord.....]

Is the truth revealed?

Looking at the information in the file, Mike had doubts.

"Hearing is believing, seeing is believing..."

"But is what you see always true?"

Eye of Truth: [Not necessarily]
