The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order Chapter 2456 Half-Step Fourth Realm speed
Previously on The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order...
Even with his rugged look, General Fausto proved to be highly clever and masterful in managing supplies. Unable to foresee the spots where pieces of the Sacred Treasure could emerge, he had segmented the whole domain into sections.
Hundreds of thousands existed.
The magnitude of the effort was immense. To scour such expansive areas demanded millions of fighters, each with a mind strong enough to envelop whole moons. It was by this approach that the gauntlet had been found, and now the detection grid was expanding on a larger scale.
"We need more than just the power from your top soldiers," General Fausto declared, "but also the vast numbers from your forces who hold a consciousness that spans at least ten thousand kilometers in range."
While he talked, Fausto's piercing stare fixed upon the Scarlet King.
The cause was clear. All those gathered realized Cain had come only with three allies.
Though Cain was still absorbing the idea that he'd pinpointed a second piece via the Power of Chaos, he set that aside and steadily faced the massive Royal Blutlinie's look.
"My Ocean of the Blood Sun can unleash millions of sea beings through which I share vision," Cain answered steadily. "They'll cover every part of the land in the sections near the Ocean. This covers the old lands of the Kalos and Aztorus Kingdoms too. Should they spot something odd, I'll get word right away."
General Fausto squinted as he ran through a few rapid computations before giving a nod.
"That should work fine. Thanks to the Ocean of the Blood Sun's troops, we've already scanned fourteen percent of the sections."
Having stated that, Fausto shifted his attention to the Heartcram King and the Evernight Queen.
"The soldiers you've delivered will fall under my direction for the hunt. I further anticipate that the armies left in your domains start probing the nearby sections without delay."
Abraham and Alucar both agreed with nods. Really, they had scant option except to go along.
"Splendid," the Dark Blood King remarked, clear pleasure in his tone. "The hunt moves forward under General Fausto's lead. The quicker we gather the pieces, the earlier we launch attacks on the other domains and claim their parts."
A chill savagery gleamed in his gaze as he uttered those final phrases, showing his thrill at the idea of conflict. Yet he soon reined in his feelings.
"Naturally," he continued, "your efforts won't go unrewarded."
With a flick of his wrist, three rings soared to the gathered rulers.
"These enable contact between you all, no matter the domain. They provide entry to our war network too, letting you see the supplies, valuables, and structures open to you in return for your service."
Cain along with the other two leaders promptly projected their minds into the rings.
The initial display was a roster of chat lines, plus a setup for monitoring and gaining war points. The three swiftly skipped those features and zeroed in on the inventory of prizes.
Their gazes grew wide.
Certain entries outshone anything found in their personal realms.
Cain's face grew keen the instant he spotted a physique honing method centered on velocity. A burning longing flared up inside him.
The Savitar Technique had already elevated his velocity to the height of the Alpha-Omega Overgod rank. Mastering it further would let him hit the Limit Alpha-Omega phase.
Yet the method from the Dark Blood Kingdom vowed
something way surpassing that—
Half-Step Fourth Realm speed.
The potential was mind-blowing. His quickness might multiply, maybe even
triple over.
Still, upon viewing the cost, a scowl crossed his features at once.
The initial demand was a huge pile of Omen Cores. Luckily, from looting the Kalos and Aztorus Kingdoms, Cain had ample riches to meet that expense.
The real barrier stood as the next demand: war points.
And the quantity required matched that vastness.
"The fights haven't started at all," Cain mused. "I can't gain points from fights. Right now, the sole path to get them is by claiming sections and retrieving Sacred Treasure pieces."
He was aware of one piece's spot already.
But a choice on handling that info remained undecided.
"With the details now in hand," the Dark Blood King announced, pulling their focus back, "preparations start. Use the remaining hours to handle your matters. The major search kicks off tomorrow."
The trio of rulers assented with nods. Following a courteous incline, they left the chamber.
After their departure, the mood shifted abruptly.
Averus and Fausto's faces turned icy.
"I saw no response from them while checking the piece or its sign," Fausto stated bluntly. "Probably none had come across such things prior."
"Maybe they're just skilled at concealing it," Averus countered, his
tone laced with keen animosity. "Reaching their status means mastering deception. Just consider the latest one among
them."
The Dark Blood King faced him, gaze tightening.
"Do you think the Scarlet King holds a piece already?" Averus stayed quiet briefly before denying with a shake.
"I watched him closely through the whole talk and noticed nothing
off. Plus, I assigned one of my top spies as his aide. She detailed the items in the spatial rings held by the Scarlet King
and his escorts. No pieces were there."
He halted then went on.
"Even if he hid his surprise well, I question if someone that youthful
could keep such perfect poise."
Though disdain for Cain ran deep in him, Averus could stay logical. He
refused to let feelings blur his view— a trait the Dark
Blood King valued.
"Fine then," the king uttered deliberately. "At present, they'll serve our needs."
A shadowy, scheming gleam crossed his eyes.
"And once it all ends..."
His mind raced on quietly, brimming with icy drive and
more intricate plots waiting to emerge.
