"I hope I will survive," said Heleu looking ahead at the lake, while people gathered around us.
The dawn had just started to break, and soon we will leave for the last battle.
"You will and so will I," I replied, and that brought a smile to his face. "Let's hope so," he replied, and looked at the beautiful scenery ahead.
The rays of dawn falling on the lake look really beautiful. I wish I could take this whole piece of s.p.a.ce with me, but I am too weak to do that. So, I just recorded the scenery; it is the only thing I could do with my current strength.
People are gathering beside me, and they seemed far more in discipline than people during the first battle.
The training in these past few days seemed to have helped them a lot.
"You seemed unusually happy. Did something happen?" he asked suddenly. It surprised me and I opened my mouth to reply. To lie, of course, before stopping and deciding to tell the truth.
"Yes. I have found something." I replied, and he arched his brow in question, but I remained quiet.
"Good for you," he said after a few seconds of silence, while I just smiled.
I had really found something. It is the second-best thing after that bubbling tar cloud. It is the seed of a haeval spatial tree.
One of the trees that produces an organic spatial seed. The value of it is thousands of times greater than an artificial spatial seed, which is used in making abodes or other spatial s.p.a.ces.
The haevel spatial tree produces two fruits before dying.
One is called growth fruit while the other is called spatial fruit. The seed, I found in crystal is from growth fruit, and used growing the plant.
While the spatial fruit produces spatial seed.
It can be used in making an abode or expanded s.p.a.ces and the ones made using them are far more stable and last longer.
People are crazy about them, and whenever one appears in the market, it immediately sold out.
It rarely appears in the market, but when it does; it fetches an immense price.
I am glad my clone opened the crystal within an hour as it gave me a chance to buy other important things, I will need to grow it.
I already have the growth energy arranged and I am creating fertilizer from the resources I have brought from the market after getting it.
I had already buried it in the soil, will fertilizer around it, the moment it finished. I will only need the growth energy, which I will get from Grimms in the battle.
The spatial seed is not only used in making an abode, but also in many other things. I already thought about the things it could help me with, and the more I thought, the more excited I would become.
It took me a while before I was able to control my emotions and think calmly.
Soon, the sun completely comes out, and with it all people gathered. Leaving the hills barren of any abode.
A few hours ago, there was a bustling small city here. Now it had all disappeared; of hundreds of thousands of abodes, not a single one had remained.
Even my posters had disappeared; there were my posters a lot of them, put up by the four families. Even in such conditions, they were searching for me and Kara, offering a huge reward.
I was looking around when three sovereigns rose in the sky; three from the three cities. Each of them is representative or related to city lords.
It is a precious ruin, and it is obvious they will send their representative. These three are powerful, but most importantly have the highest experience in leading the battles against the Grimms.
"Once again, the sp.a.w.ns of abomination had sullied this place." Said the man in the middle. He is a tall man, with white marble skin and thin fiery red on it.
He is Adros; one of the most powerful people here. A peak Sovereign, with a very powerful fire element const.i.tution. They said he had gained it by eating the miracle fruit.
"Today, we will wipe them out so thoroughly. That they will never dare to set their filthy eyes on this place again." He stated and nearly three hundred thousand people cheered.
He continued his speech, while I once again looked at people.
There are three million of them had entered this ruin; many died exploring, and many left before Grimms arrived. Leaving only these three hundred thousand people.
Though, there were more and when Grimms arrived, they have killed many. Over a hundred thousand in the Clear Lake region alone or more. n.o.body had a clear estimation of how many they have killed.
"Kill the sp.a.w.ns!" Adros roared and with him, hundreds of thousands of us. With our voice reverberating through the whole region.
With that, Adros and the two turned. As he did, the over six hundred Sovereigns also rose in the sky.
A powerful force that is enough to crush any Sovereign organization within a matter of minutes.
As they did, their power surrounded us, and we begin to move. We are not flying, while Sovereigns could help with that. They are not, as it will expand their energy and they want to remain at peak.
It is for the same reason, we are flying with our energy.
We moved in the discipline, running across the lake, with a speed that only Primary-III could manage.
There are no Primary-II here; every person is Primary-III or above.
From the information we have gathered; the Grimms have gathered near our exit. Like at Umber Region; we will have to fight the Grimms here, to get to the exit of this ruin.
It will be hard. Harder than the battle we had fought earlier, but it is we need to fight to get out of this ruin.
It is such a regret that; I did not get any level-up for this battle. I could have made a breakthrough, that would have given me a huge boost and s.p.a.ce to consume more Grimms.
eαglesnovel`c,om My chance of survival would have increased tremendously, but I choose not to for my future.
It might be the dumbest risk I had taken, but since I did. I decided not to think about the further.
A few hours pa.s.sed and not a single attack from the Grimms had come. Some had expected there would be some sneak attacks, but not a single one came.
We kept moving, crus.h.i.+ng anything that comes in our way. Most monsters burrowed deep into their holes, seeing the numbers, but some daring tried to attack; they were turned to dust before they could even roar.
Soon it was late afternoon, and we took a break.
Everyone is feeling a little nervous and looking everywhere, but even after the rest is over, the attack from the Grimms did not come.
"It seemed like they have pulled all their numbers for the final battle," said Heleu. "That's likely the case," I replied grimly.
It made me feel worried; them pulling numbers means we will have to face a large number of Grimms and that is not something I like to do.
Especially with all these inexperienced people.
