Chapter 1002 The Price Of A Single Bottle Of Water!
“I know, and it’s awesome, right? Hahahaha!” I was in a great mood right now. “Come, let me take you somewhere else, a place where we can discuss this deal in a more appropriate way.”
I had nothing much to do here anyway. My Lily was getting those geniuses and selecting the ones who would help me in various tasks later on.
Then we’d have lots of time to wait for the third training ground to get ready before sending the strongest forces with cultivation out there to train with the Hescos.
In my estimate, this would take roughly a week to get done, if not more. The requirements this time were the ones who were going to delay our progress.
The ones dealing with this mess had to create suitable terrain for aerial and underground battles. Not to mention mimicking other scenarios like attacking forts, towns, and cities secured by Hescos, or defending against their invasion.
I opened a portal towards Earth as I motioned for Oglak to follow. Before leaving, I left a detailed message for Lily to know what she had to do while I was away.
After all, one hour there was close to twenty here.
I had to secure this deal. If what Oglak said was true, and things back in my necromancer world were good, I could get lots of forces out of nowhere.
And these ones would be elites, elites of elites. They’d have strong cultivation bases, vast battle experience, and even appointing them as leaders would be an understatement for their true potential.
I appeared on Earth at my capital. The sight of it didn’t change that much, it was still echoing with noises.
“This… We are in a different world?!!”
It hit me when I heard the shocked words of Oglak. He didn’t know that we were in a secluded world of mine.
“This is the world taking part in the apocalypse,” I said while motioning my glaive towards the direction of the capital, “and this is the capital of my kingdom.”
“Capital? Apocalypse world? Then… What about the one we just came from?”
“It’s mine too, but without apocalypse.”
“This… You own a world already? Damn fierce! May I ask how long has it been since the arrival of the apocalypse? What quest are you on right now? Quest seventy? Eighty? Or perhaps ninety?”
“No, I’m waiting for the fifth quest to start,” I laughed as I knew hearing this would leave a deep impact inside his heart and soul.
And as I expected, Oglak’s giant body trembled once again, making me laugh once more.
“Don’t get surprised, I’m full of surprises so get used to it, hahahaha!” I didn’t know why, but getting such a strong figure of a mighty race shocked was interesting and fun.
“Let’s go,” I opened a portal and passed through it. The moment I passed to the other side, I found the great ball of my necromancer world.
“This… Is this…”
“It is what you guessed,” I flew towards that world, “it’s better if you stayed on my chariot for now.”
“Sure…” he was still shocked to see my necromancer world. What? Did he think I was joking or something?
The moment my chariot passed, a new world appeared in front of my eyes.
It was bigger, much bigger than the world I saw last time I was here. I got to use my necromancers and called them out from this world. And till now I didn’t get a chance to let them come back here.
“Lord… May I ask what a peaceful world is? What kind of magical artefact created it? Is it a peace kind magical artefact or what?”
“Peace? No, it’s an artefact that used death as fuel to thrive.”
“This… Death fuel… No way! There isn’t a single speck of death or even war energy here!” I heard him sniffing as if he could tell the nature of energy in this world this way.
“Stop bluffing,” and seeing him do that made me laugh, “it’s really a world made out of death energy.”
“But… Can I take a look?”
“Be my guest,” he was inside my world and bound by my contract. So I let him fly around while I also started roaming around.
Well… This world grew by at least five folds than last time I saw it! It was filled with green grass, towering trees, huge flowers, and many small rivers running here and there.
If I didn’t know the true nature of this world, I’d have the same idea as Oglak. I might even consider it a place of heaven or something.
“Lord… This can’t be a world built by death energy… Besides…” After a few hours, Oglak came back while holding many things in his thick hands.
I saw gems, leaves, flower petals, fruits, and even bottles filled with water. “Lord… These things… They are of good grade, and have a dense amount of energy within.”
“Are these the products of my world? He is the one the other universe people look for?” This was what mattered right now.
According to what he was going to say, I’d be able to measure up such chances. Would it be really a valuable chance for me to gain more forces and power? Or was it just something left for later time?
“Lord… Their grades aren’t bad, but it’s not to consider them priceless.”
“Your meaning is…”
“They can be traded, but… For example this bottle of water here. It has a medium amount of energy stored within. I didn’t feel any death energy at all. However, from the amount of energy stored inside, and judging from my previous dealings with these people, I can say this one can be exchanged for a group of hundred alive hostages and the loot from two hundred dead.”
“Oh… This bottle can give me that?!!” He said it as if it was a big loss or something. Damn Oglak! You were holding a small bottle that didn’t contain more than one litre by most.
