3010 The Method

“We have killed the eight Grimms; it is time to plan ahead,” said the supreme commander as all of us sat at the table.

“Visiting time dilution ruins is the only choice. I have already chosen the ruin; I want to go,” said Sarah, and the name of the ruin appeared in front of us.

Some others have also nodded.

“These are list dilution ruins I have found in Rhaek storage,” I said, and the data appeared in front of us; little more than half the ruins there are the same as what we have, but there are some that even we don’t know.

“Are they reliable?” asked the supreme commander. “Likely, I have crossed reference the data with our similar ruins, and it seemed legit,” I replied, and she nodded as the file went toward everyone.

“Choose the ruin you want to go to and leave as possible,” said the supreme commander.

Everyone will leave for the ruin, including the supreme commander. Breaking through the next stage will give us a huge chance against the enemy, and we need every chance we have to defeat that impossibly powerful being.

The battle against eight half-steps Primary-II Grimms has given me a huge idea of the enemy we are dealing with, and it would be hard to defeat, even if all of us made a breakthrough into the Grand Lord class.

Though, things could become a little easier if someone breaks the limit and reaches the Primary-II class.

That would be very hard to achieve; such a thing had not happened in millenniums, and there is a reason for that.

“Here are the resources that I think will help you in advancement,” I said, and over ten storage rings appeared in my hand before they went toward every person sitting at the table, including my mom.

Gasp Gasp Gasp

A couple of gasps rang out as they took a ring in their hands; I have given them a lot of resources, 50% of what I have harvested using the growth from the eight Grimm.

There are resources like metal essence fruits, stainless lotuses, and carefully sealed essences from the necrotic tree, with all of them above the limit.

Aside from that, I have added a large number of resources I have got from the Grimms’ storage, including the miracle fruits.

“So, many above-the-limit resources,” said Rachel, and she looked at me with an arched brow.

To that, I just smiled; they do need to know where these resources have come from. Though, most of them have already guessed about their source.

“These will help tremendously in our advancements,” said Sarah, looking at me with complicated emotions.

“Have you decided which ruin you are going to?” asked Elina; I nodded at that. “The swirling ocean; I will be leaving tomorrow,” I replied.

Earlier, I had planned to go to the ruin where Lord Gatlin had found himself with the parasite, but I had changed my mind after reading information about this ruin from the Rhaeks book.

The elements of it will benefit me more, and most importantly, this ruin had higher time dilution than one had Lord Gatlin gone, though it is also more far more dangerous, even for someone like me.

Even Rhaek itself had barely been able to return alive from it and never dared to go there again.

“It is quite a dangerous ruin,” said mom as she read the information, “Yes, it is,” I replied.

She wants to stop me, but she will not; she understands our condition and knows how important it is for us to raise our strength to deal with the threat that will wipe out our race the moment it appears.

The meeting had lasted for another hour; it was mostly about the discussion of the ruins, as there is nothing that is important to it.

Even cleaning up our world, which the Masters and above are doing a fine job of.

Still, she calls back one of the Grand Lords that had gone to hiding; since everyone is heading to the ruins, including the supreme commander, we will need a Grand Lord to keep a command.

He will arrive in a few hours; by then, a few of us would already have gone.

Some people are unwilling to wait for even a second; Sarah and Rachel are leaving within an hour, and Lady Vivian is planning to leave by midnight.

By tomorrow everyone will be in ruin, dangerous ruins, and some might even die there.

“You are going to ilvag, right?” I asked my mom; she was not surprised that I knew her destination.

It was the same ruin she had returned to earlier. She had told me; she returned in a hurry without getting the chance to explore that ruin.

“I will search for a way to break the limit through my art,” she replied to that I nodded.

Focusing on her Grand Art is the best choice; with it progressing in her inheritance would be easy.please visit panda(-)N0ve1.co)m

We talked for more than three hours; there were so many things to talk about, and if we had time, we could have talked even more, but unfortunately, we did not.

I watched my mother leave through the ruin-breaking gate before returning to the med bay and sleeping in the pool. I am leaving tomorrow, and I want to recover at least 80% before I leave.

I slept for more than eleven hours before waking up, and when I did, I had recovered to the 88%, which couldn’t help but bring a huge smile across my face.

I went to my room, showered, and ate before calling Rai; he wanted to leave at night, but I had stopped him.

I had to make some improvements in his seals; thankfully, my clone was able to do it in time.

They had also found something interesting in the storage of an old snake, which could benefit him tremendously.

“So, are you done with the upgrade?” he asked as he appeared. “Yes,” I said and motioned him to sit.

He did, and a moment later, a black seed appeared in my finger, which flowed toward him before seeping inside his chest.

A few seconds later, he reached the seals and merged with them, and began upgrading.

It took about fifteen minutes when Rai finally opened his eyes and saw a book on the table before him, which was not present before.

“What is it?” he asked as he took a book in his hand, “Take a look,” I said with a smile.

He looked at me questioningly, but when I did not answer, he opened the book and began reading it.

In the next few minutes, various emotions flashed across his face, from surprise, confusion, shock, happiness, and excitement.

“What do you think?” I asked when he closed the book finally, after about twenty minutes. “I think I might be able to practice it,” he said excitedly, and if I had been in his place, I would have been excited too.

“If it worked, as you and me thinking it might, then it will solve your mutation problem,” I said, and he nodded.

My seals are good, but they only solved half of the problem, but with this method, the other half of his problems would be solved too.

He would be completely safe from the mutation.

“Where did you find this amazing thing,” he said as the book disappeared from his hand.

“Old snakes storage,” I said, and the smile on his face became bigger. “Well, it is quite sad; you had killed it, or I would have thanked it personally,” he said.

“By killing it with the method?” I asked, and he grinned back draconically, with his slitted eyes flashing.

Those are the side effect of his breaking the two seals and forcefully merging with mutation. I had helped with what I could, but even I couldn’t stop these minor side effects from appearing.

Still, if the method worked, it would all disappear, not only the eye but all the draconic qualities he has, appearing in a completely different form.

He did not stay for long and left after discussing a few things.

I also walked out of my house, and till the evening, I met a few people and discussed some important things before going out and harvesting over a thousand Grimms with bloodlines.

They might be weaklings, but they provide resources, and these resources would be very useful to the humans to whom I had sent.

We might not be able to win against the enemy, so I had made all the preparations I could, including sending a large chunk of above-the-limit resources to them.

If we fail, they will succeed.

Soon, it was time for me to leave, and I entered the hall where the realm-breaking gate was; I was not alone; the supreme commander was with me.

“Best of luck, Micheal,” she said, “Thank you, supreme commander,” I said back and stepped inside the gate, and a moment later, I was in the spatial tunnel, which was shaking mildly.

The ruin, like most of the ruins of its level, is right at the edge of the world’s influence, which is quite far, and building a safe spatial pathway is quite a work and requires the ruin-breaking gate of the highest grade.

There have been Grand Lords who have had accidents in the tunnel. Only a few of them had been able to return; one of them was Ramona Hawthorn and her excellency.

It will not happen to me; the stable pathways are one best thing about this ruin. Rhaek even noted that it had the most stable pathways among all the ruins of its level.

Despite that, it had never dared to return to this ruin.
