Chapter 965 The Scorching Ground Mode

Doing much more than this? How? I got tons of races, and they were training at two grounds. I got my little Qi and was going to form mighty flying armies of monsters.

And I was waiting for the second training grounds to be prepared before starting to meet Hescos.

How could I improve this? I spent the next week squeezing my brain and tried to find answers.

“This is all I can do…” but after all this time and effort in thinking, I only found one way to help.

“I have to buy more time… This is all I can do for now…”

I thought about one thing, expanding the time I’d spend before the start of the next quest.

Time was my greatest enemy, not Hescos. That’s what I reached after thinking for all this time.

I got this world here, but it wasn’t enough. I got another way to increase the time spent here. And it was through staying inside that pocket world!

That world had a time difference implemented in it. It wasn’t that great. If I recall it right, then it would be three to four times faster than the time here.

But that was enough. At least I could spend two months there, and only one day would pass on Earth.

Raising the time difference from twenty folds into sixty was the only thing I could do for my forces. Hopefully by the time of the quest, I’d come back and find lots of great surprises waiting for me.

I didn’t like that world. It held too many bad memories thanks to what I saw inside. Not to mention I lost Hilary thanks to this damn place.

But I had to suck it up. This was what I could do for my forces.

During this time, Silverlining got the news and started to panic. He tried everything to make me calm down, even to the extent of promising double delivery of our deals.

Yet I left him hanging up like this. This jerk… He met my kindness and empathy with such a rude attitude.

[I heard you are mad at our little boy] and just as I was seeing the outer border of the continent I was heading towards, I got this message all of sudden.

[Sovereign Ludak, I hope you aren’t here to speak up for him] Silverlining tried even to speak with that mad sovereign as he knew the two of us were getting closer.

But that didn’t help. Even the mad sovereign didn’t speak that well about that jerk. He stood by my side, and supported me in my intent of killing him.

[Well… I have to say… That kiddo is just as terrible as any son you may got, but he is also kind hearted and pretty damn loyal]

[He showed his true loyalty by selling me out!] Even after all this time, thinking back about what that jerk did still pained me and got me on the edge!

He was loyal? Tsk, I didn’t want such loyal jerks who end up harming me.

[He didn’t expect all this to happen. He just got an offer and he didn’t think much about it]

[I don’t care about his reasons. I got myself into this deep sh*Thanks to him!]

[In a way or another, this was bound to happen. Even if he didn’t open up his mouth, you were bound to face such retaliation from Hescos]

[How so?]

[Do you think finding grand armies like yours flooding at all of their worlds in your apocalypse trial will go unnoticed? If anything I can say about these enemies of ours, then they are quite meticulous and pretty damn organised! If we got even one tenth of their abilities, we would have been on top of the universe for a long time already!]

[What does it have to do with me?] I was interested in hearing anything about my next enemies. However, I couldn’t understand how this was related to what that jerk did.

[They will notice you thanks to their tight surveillance net and system. Once spotted, they’ll investigate you heavily as they did this time. Do you think this is something special? This is how they used to do with any enemy of theirs]

[Your point is…]

[Our relation was destined to be discovered the moment you sat your gazes on them as your enemies, and on us as your allies. So, one way or another, this was going to happen]

[But…]

[I know he did something bad, and he should get punished. But putting such fate and reasons into consideration will make you lower his sentence, right?]

[Hmm…] he got a point indeed. If this was destined to happen, this Silverlining great sin just got lighter.

[Don’t worry, he is already freaking out and learnt his lesson quite well. He even spoke with us, all of us, and reached to increase the delivery of your deals. You are going to have double delivery with the same price, and that will all come from us]

[You are going to stand by his side?!] I had to admit, I was a little surprised about what he said.

[Not all of us, but most will do. In one way, we are giving one of ours a little hand. And from another, we are helping you as well]

[Thanks] I got what he wanted to say.

[So… About this jerk…]

[I’ll let him off for you this time, for all of your sake] I had to give him and others little face here. Especially after what he said.

[Great! I’ll let him know then. Ah, by the way, I heard rumours about the joining of three more worlds to your trial. So your trial won’t have only twenty, but twenty-three]

[This…] I expected this a long time ago thanks to the mad sovereign words.

[You got to know that the system higher up will only allow for even number worlds to exist inside a trial]

[And…]

[If a trial got an odd number, the system will run what we call a scorching ground plan]

[What does this even mean? Is it bad?]
