Chapter 1297 Lethal Level Of Danger

When I linked the hidden intentions of the system to this, I got more confident in my guess. What was going on to these two worlds wasn't natural at all! And it was made by the same foes, and I swore they were the same ones who were trying to get rid of our universe, and other universes as well.

When I thought deeper about it, I noticed that in each race page I read through before, there was the same sort of disaster happening out there.

"So… All of this is linked…" It was quite shocking but it was the only logical explanation I could get. If they were all linked together to the same origin, then by working together we could succeed.

"That means the real mission isn't just related to saving any of these worlds, but to try and weaken the hold of that hidden power over these races. If that's true, then with each golden quest, the system's higher ups hope to bring considerable damage to these people… That's interesting…"

If that was true, then where would such hidden evil force exist?

I thought about going back and re-studying all of these worlds and quests again. But when I considered such a thing, I found out how naive it was.

Such force would never be located inside any world… If I was them, I'd situate myself somewhere near all, close to all, but couldn't be easily reached from any world or anyone.

Hmm… It suddenly turned into a hunting adventure!

So despite the system trying to make it look like it was a competitive quest, it was in reality a hunting adventure.

And to win this, I had to either go with the system's clear intentions and try to save one race, or aim for a more difficult goal and try to free all of these races at the same time by taking that cancer source out.

"If a prey hides itself so deep and well, then the best way to hunt it down is by trying to lure it out…"

I intended to go for the far impossible goal and try to take the enemy behind all this down!

I knew by logic, I should aim towards clearing one world. The risks alone were quite high at any single quest of these.

But I had different goals than just achieving a more than perfect score in this test.

In my eyes, this was a good chance to get to know more about such hidden enemies.

My war with that enemy already started. They have been setting their gazes on me since then. And I was kept all this time in the shadows.

And right now I was going to face them up, as I decided already to select the world of the angels; the last remaining world!

So if I was going to fight them in the end, then why should I aim towards a mediocre goal of just conquering them in one world and free the angels from their misery?

If things went right, then I'd be able to see what they were capable of. And then I'd make more preparations to get rid of them later on.

In addition to that, something told me if I saved one race, that race would end up serving me and joining my kingdom.

What made me think so was the lack of information about any rewards from this quest. All that was mentioned at the end of the list was the way to get out and concede.

So if there was no mention of any reward, the saved race would be the reward!

I also experienced that when I saved the seven stars race. They joined my kingdom and served me. Despite that it was partially thanks to Stephen, but in the end they became mine.

If I managed to get all the races here under my control, then I'd be more confident in my future.

My current situation in the apocalyptic trial wasn't that stable yet. But in the worst case scenario, I'd lose control over a bunch of worlds, and the Hescos would take control over them.

Then another final battle would erupt, or perhaps a series of deadly battles. Either way, my chances wouldn't plummet even if I lost the upcoming grand battle.

My aim wasn't just down my feet. I was looking beyond that, when I'd gain control over my apocalyptic trial, merging all the worlds under Earth world control, and began my journey towards the vast universe.

Having these races would be the real backbone of my kingdom and human race towards surviving the harsh universe.

The greatest risk would come from none other than the Hescos. Even if the hidden enemies wanted me dead, they had to scheme for a long time before doing that.

Yet the Hescos didn't need any time at all!

If I managed to crush their forces here, and I would, then the rift between the two of us would grow deeper and wider.

They couldn't do much to me right now thanks to the protection of the system and the apocalypse. But that protection would be gone the moment the apocalyptic trial would come to an end.

By then, nothing would stop them from invading my Earth world and getting me and everything I struggled to obtain and build crushed under their might and ferocity.

Even if the Toranks stepped in to help, I'd suffer immense losses, ending up losing too much than I could handle.

Such loss would push me back many steps behind. Instead of walking forward towards being a mighty and formidable figure in the universe, I'd end up being weak and unable to even protect myself.

Taking such a risk was a must. As long as I was here, why would I try to act safe when I'd end up in immense danger anyway?

The level of threat measured by the system for the last two quests was the same; lethal danger level!
