Chapter 489 Last Day In The Three Great Lakes Region

When the great crocodile spoke in irritation, its opponent did not back down and called it a yellow one-eyed creature.

With that insult, that creature jumped toward its opponent, angrily attacking this shameless green being that was jerking it around.

"You bastard, you're just a tadpole!"

"Fuck you, you yellow bastard!"

The two exchanged various offenses as they were estranged.

One of them tried to bite the other with its razor-sharp teeth, and the other used its claws to cut the hide off its opponent.

As the two began a fight that would last for hours, the weaker beasts passing in the vicinity cursed these two beings for impeding their passage.

'How will we get in the way of the human if they are fighting and preventing our passage?' A toad thought to itself, sighing that those two beings stronger than it had started this senseless dispute.

...

Meanwhile, in Peters City...

Lothur's women were already beginning to worry about his disappearance, considering several days had passed since the incident in the Finn Mountains.

Amidst their anguish, they were training hard, with Annaliese and Viktoria even having advanced in level these days due to the spiritual crystals left by Lothur.

Because of these items, the stronger of the two had reached level 14, while their younger sister had reached level 12.

Elke had also improved in the last few days. But without the possibility of absorbing the crystals given to her by Lothur, she had not have had such fabulous results as these two.

In any case, she was apprehensive about her man's disappearance, even considering all the activities that she had been doing to occupy her mind.

Among these activities, she, Annaliese, and Viktoria were taking care of Ritter Motor Company matters almost daily. After all, besides being Lothur's women, they were members of families with significant shares of that company.

And that was what the three of them were doing this morning in one of the outermost parts of Peters City.

"That's the place, First Miss Frost." A middle-aged man said this as he showed a piece of land the size of four soccer fields to her and the other two. "I am sure this place can be used for what you have asked me for."

The Ritter Motor Company already had the site of its future factory, and men from the associated families of Lothur were slowly building it.

But the Linn Paving Company was yet to be developed and needed a place to begin operations.

The three women from Lothur were doing just that right now!

Elke looked at the surroundings and said. "This place looks good. We might be able to build something near our factory."

"Yes, besides, if the local government doesn't make it too difficult for us, we can even build a small road in the models Lothur has already told us between those places."

When he had relayed the message to the local powers about the paving company that would need to be developed, Lothur had put the basic model of the roads in his message. Because of this, these women knew what he wanted and were advancing the service so that they would have a way to test cars on the local streets when the first one was ready.

The streets of Peters City were not so bad that the cars would need constant repairs because of potholes and irregularities. The roads between cities were the ones that were so bad. But in the city, even with good quality streets and avenues, there was a need for signage and minor repairs.

So they would still depend on local changes for the best movement of their vehicles.

"We'll look at that later." Viktoria said before using some of the Ritter Motor Company reserves, she picked up the day before to pay that salesman.

...

Meanwhile, Lothur had finally survived the 24-hour dinosaur challenge, being at this moment agitatedly breathing as he was slumped on his back on the ground.

He had a proud smile on his face, and even though he was pretty sweaty and had several injuries that would take him a while to recover from, he was pleased that he had made it this far.

The results had also been great, so he could not help but look at his status with joy.

[Name: Lothur Ritter]

[Physique: what doesn't kill you makes you stronger]

[Bloodline: Life Devourer]

[Cultivation: level 13 -> 14]

[STR: 104.2 -> 123.7]

[CON: 330.2 -> 342.8]

[DEX: 101 -> 120.2]

[AGI: 109 -> 125.8]

[INT: 113]

[PER: 187.3]

[WIL: -> 118.2]

[EVF: 220 -> 0]

He had used all of his EVF points to recover in the last few rests, which made his progress to this point possible.

At the same time, on the last of his rests, he had managed to raise his level, having again undergone a marrow cleanse.

The dinosaur could not see Lothur's attributes, but it knew that this young man was getting stronger and stronger and said. "Very well, you have an impressive physique and have reached the end of my test."

"Now, you may choose one of the items on my master's body."

Lothur looked in the direction of that sitting skeleton, seeing with his visual ability a total of three items that should be powerful artifacts.

But then, the creature said. "But before I send you to the training chamber, I want to give you the information I promised earlier."

"Information? What's it about?" Lothur sat with his legs crossed, still agitatedly breathing as he regained his breath.

The projection in front of him sat on the ground and began to speak. "This Immortals Well was not simply manipulated by my master to help low-level beings become stronger. My master found this place at that time, and upon realizing it had special characteristics, he decided to use it to create his challenge."

"That challenge would be the test of preparation for someone compatible to gain the minimum necessary to carry out a mission." It said in a serious tone.

"It was meant to test the skills needed for that special mission. If someone did not have what was needed, they would naturally be barred, killed, or fail to reach this place and fight me."

"What mission?" Lothur questioned.

"To fight against the Demon Emperor's interests!" It said as it looked up at that place's ceiling, imagining where its body was.

Just like beings of all other species, Demons had some sort of organization of things between them, even considering all their chaos. And as such, leaders would rise among them from time to time, unite them around one purpose, and bring tragedy to the other races of this world.

The Demon Emperor was someone like this, a being who was supposed to have been born in the time of this beast's master and was predicted to bring calamity again to the continent.

As a great enemy of demons, the master of this creature had left behind a method of training and preparing someone to pursue his purpose.

The eradication of this cursed species!
