Chapter 422 Barbarians & Void Ant

Chapter 422 Barbarians & Void Ant

"Welcome to our store, how can I help you?" the staff greeted.

"I'm here to buy warriors and some builders," Maximus stated directly.

"Do you have any additional preferences?"

"Preferably tier 10 warriors. They don't need to be too strong as long as they're cheap," Maximus replied after some thought.

He was here to buy hundreds or thousands of tier-10 warriors.

If they were too expensive, a million origin coins might not even buy a dozen.

"What about the builders?"

"Just someone who can process large amounts of materials. It doesn't matter if they have the specific profession or not."

Maximus planned to use the builders for the construction of the Etherium Academy.

It's been five years since the beginning of the construction of the Academy.

However, until now they were still in the process of laying the foundation.

At this rate, the academy wouldn't be built even after thousands of years. Those Apex Sovereigns also needed to cultivate and couldn't just stay and work.

Otherwise, it would be putting the cart before the horse.

Understanding his intention, the staff guided him to the selection of warriors.

Around them were projections of various mighty figures of different species.

One could also control the projection, simulating their abilities.

After trying one by one and comparing the pros and cons, Maximus chose the warriors from the barbarian tribe.

The barbarian clan is only a low-range clan among the myriad of races in the Dimensional Alliance.

They were not proficient in any auxiliary professions like alchemy, refining, puppetry, etc.

Any delicate work seemed beyond them, leading to them being regarded as one of the lowest clans of species.

Their only redeeming factors were their fertility and fighting ability. Similar to humans, their fertility ranged from a year to a few years depending on strength.

However, unlike humans who still needed to train, the barbarian clan was born powerful and proficient in combat.

They were the best cannon fodder when it came to fighting.

Such a fate can be said to be worse than death, giving them the ability to fight but not much ability to comprehend.

The barbarian clan's limit is only up to the tier 10 realm.

Even occasionally having a lucky powerhouse that could advance to the tier 11 realm, without enough comprehension, they could never become a master of the river of law.

Without such a figure to represent the barbarian clan, they were destined to become only cannon fodder and slaves.

Fortunately, humans had a different fate.

Although they didn't have a tier 12 overlord to represent them, they had many powerful figures to rely on.

Thanks to their powerful fertility and comprehension, they were at the top ladder of the Dimensional Alliance.

Sighing at the impermanence of fate, Maximus quickly turned his attention to the staff and asked for the price.

"Each tier 10 barbarian is worth about 100 to 100,000 origin coins depending on their potential," the staff briefly said, introducing the difference between the prices.

"Hmm, give me three thousand class F barbarians and three barbarian kings," Maximus said after a little calculation.

However, reaching tier 9, each void ant would cost 1 origin coin, and with the tier 10 void ant cost 100 origin coins.

His current balance was certainly not enough to form enough army for his Etherium Realm.

Fortunately, it's barely enough to build the Etherium Academy.

"Give me 1 octillion tier 0 void ants, 100 septillion tier 1 void ants, 10 septillion tier 2 void ants...."

Spending most of the million origin coins, Maximus returned to the Etherium Realm.

...

A few days later, Maximus quietly received his orders.

Looking at three thousand barbarians and three barbarian kings, Maximus felt a little pressure.

Fortunately, the control seal given to him was quite handy.

With just a little control, Maximus quickly erased the pressure they emitted. After introducing each other and knowing each of their abilities, Maximus quickly assigned them responsibilities.

Each barbarian king would be assigned a thousand barbarians.

Finally under his name, they would train in the Virtual Realm and simulate war.

Although they already have innate fighting ability, after testing, Maximus felt it was not enough.

Their fighting style was too rough and lacked a little finesse.

If they fought with the warriors of the Blood Ragnarok realm, it would still be unknown who would be winning.

Spending such a large amount of origin coins, Maximus was not satisfied with such a result.

Fortunately, there is a complete set of training routines in the virtual realm.

With just a little payment, these barbarians could train to their utmost potential.

After assigning each of them a task and goals, Maximus took them inside the World Tree.

Their power is still too much for the Etherium Realm.

As a Dimensional Master, Maximus could feel the Etherium Realm being torn by the aura they naturally emitted.

If they lived here long enough, it might even cause permanent damage to the dimensional space and origin.

Fortunately, the space inside the World Tree is large enough.

The laws inside were also complete, making the space more tough and solid.

After settling the barbarian clan, Maximus turned his attention to the void ants.

The void ants were already in his system space.

As creatures of the void, the void ants were not picky with the environment.

Looking at the void ants energetically floating around the system space, he couldn't help but smile.

Just after getting inside, the ants, who had a perfectionist complex, couldn't help but get agitated seeing the mess inside.

Because of laziness, besides the rough organization, most of the items he bought were dumped carelessly inside the system space.

From books, materials, treasures, plants, origin coins, merit crystals, and even some mortal resources he bought in the past were floating messily in space.

If you look through them from a macroscopic perspective, it look like stars and galaxies floating around orderly.

However, from a microscopic perspective, everything looks like trash floating in the ocean.

For the void ants, the scene was like a massacre; even the chaotic void looked cleaner in comparison.

"What good babies, just clean the mess a little. You still have another job to do..." Maximus thought.
