Chapter 924 A Terrifying Explosion!

It was better to let her rot in there for as long a time as possible. The angrier she became the better.

And then I used the staff, jumped over to the big mines before starting flying south east.

[For how long?]

[At least two hundred miles, or perhaps three? I don’t know. I just started calculating the distance after getting out from the mountainous region]

[Got it]

At least there was a mark for me to assess my direction and distance.

However, crossing that rough mountainous terrain took almost two days. And I was using my chariot’s top speed here.

The more I flew past the mountain tops, the more I believed Angelica’s words. Her earlier assessment about the unsuitability of this terrain for my people was correct.

As I crossed the mountainous region, I knew I had at most ten hours to arrive at her location.

During this time, she kept moving outwards and spreading out her limited people to look for more ore veins.

As I flew past the open fields here filled with tall and thick trees, I could see many scattered emptied spots, where she and her people dug the ground.

I could see sparkling dots down below from my high away position. I wanted to get down there and inspect what they unearthed, but thought to wait until I’d find Angelica first.

As I expected, in eight hours I saw a bunch of people removing dirt in the middle of trees. They were a group of thousands, and they worked over a wide area, digging at five spots.

[I’m here]

[I saw you]

As I received her message, I didn’t even wait for her to arrive and opened a portal. “Let’s go,” I passed through it while hearing her complaining words from behind.

“Quite impatient you are!”

Of course I was. I spent two days looking for her. And I still had to go back to Earth and spend at least one day there arranging things.

So I had to get this done fast.

Once we arrived at the other end, she looked at me in a blaming way. Well, one of the reasons that made me hurry back here was to avoid being alone with her.

Consider me scared of getting into a new relationship at this moment. Consider me fearing for her and other girls being around me, fearing for them to get cursed.

“Sigh! Why are you in such a hurry?” she didn’t give me any way out as she jumped over my chariot and called hers back. Like this I had to take her around with me until we’d go back.

“I have little time left,” I shrugged.

“Really?” she crossed her arms in front of her bulging chest, making me inwardly sigh.

She was a beauty indeed. And she kept chasing after me after getting done from Alex.

“Here,” and just as I went towards one of the paths in between mountains to find one of her men, she extended her hand and dropped lots of different shapes, sized, and coloured ores.

“These are the ones we excavated and got an immense amount of energy,” she said, “be careful, they can explode if they get in touch with any energy of any sort.”

“I see,” I grabbed one of them. It was dark purple in colour. The moment I touched it, I felt a stir inside my dantian.

What? Could my dantian absorb the energy inside these ores? Or was it just a response to the huge amount of energy there?

“Go and arrange things,” I waved to her to leave, “then come back to find me. I’m going to remain here and wait for your return.”

“Oh, so anxious to see me leaving then… What? Don’t you like me?” she swayed her body as she said these words. I gulped and shifted my eyes off her exposed parts as I said:

“I told you already, I have little time.”

“I’m sure we will have a time when the two of us will only be together,” she said before leaving. And when she did, I sighed in relief.

Damn! Why couldn’t she get it? I was afraid of hurting other girls, why wouldn’t she understand?

As she went away, I knew she’d take a long time before coming back. “Time to test these ores then,” I moved my chariot towards a deep part of the mountain tops.

There I could test anything without endangering any people around.

It took me roughly half an hour to get to a safe place. I got that purple ore out and examined it closely.

It was a big piece of ore, at the size of my head. It has such a rough surface, with sharp edges that could cause anyone any wound.

“She said it will explode once it gets in touch with any energy… Interesting,” I didn’t feel any energy coming from this ore, but my dantian did.

If it got my dantian to stir up then it meant I could use my spiritual energy.

“Go,” I formed my first technique with my left hand then threw out this ore far away with all my might.

As I watched it fly for thousands of metres away, I released my threads to catch it.

Then something I never imagined happened!

*Boom!*

At first there was silence coupled with a bright mushroom shaped explosion. It gave me the impression of a star exploding, and the light expanded fast till it enveloped my chariot in such a sudden move.

Then a mighty explosive sound came, and with it I saw the shield of my chariot getting deep and long cracks.

My chariot was thrown in the air like a broken kite! It landed a few miles behind, crushing the ground, while I was totally shocked.

What the heck… Was that?!!! She said that the explosion was fierce, but she never said it was so deadly!

It settled in just a few minutes after it exploded. And when I rose up with my chariot, I saw a very scary scene.

Mountains… Mountains were cleared all around me! The explosion expanded far beyond my eyes.
