Chapter 1065: Cooperation Agreement
The Andromeda Galaxy.
As Old Man Maxwell looked at the Azure Dragon that appeared before him, the first thought that came to mind was that of gratitude.
“I can’t believe that the alliance’s platform didn’t forget me, though I’m over 2 million lightyears away from Earth, they still remember me and the Great Venerable Dragon God actually thought to visit this old man personally.”
However, this thought, like a soap bubble of hope, also burst in no time.
“Do you know where the leader of the migrants is?” The Azure Dragon said lightly.
“Uh, they’re carrying out some development at a galaxy nearby, you need a Portal to reach that place.” Maxwell gave a forthright answer.
“You can run, but you cannot hide. This estate of theirs should be enough as collateral.” The Azure Dragon spoke words that did not make sense to Maxwell.
“Mortgage? May I ask why are you seeking out the leaders, Great Venerable Dragon God?” Maxwell tested.
He could not expose himself here, not through his tone of speech, even though the Venerable Azure Dragon already knew.
“Hmph, these people took out a loan of magical energy from the Magical Energy Bank with malicious intent and fled without paying it back. To pay back what you owe is one of the most basic forms of righteousness in the world, normal humans may not be able to do anything about it but I can’t turn a blind eye to this injustice.” The Azure Dragon said with an air of righteousness.
“Uh…” Maxwell was at a loss for words for what he just heard.
From what he saw, every single one of those migrants was an elite and probably too smart for their own good that they would even want to take advantage of things like this.
After all, during the past year, even savage tribes scattered across the planet were able to produce large amounts of magical energy monthly.
This was probably an inherent weakness of mankind — to think that it would be a waste to not rake in free cultivating resources using their endowment before they fled.
They probably thought that what harm was there to take out a loan on the house since they were fleeing anyway and there was no need to repay the amount.
It was just that they probably did not expect someone to travel two million lightyears to personally collect their debts…
Clever people might become victims of their own cleverness, served them right!
Maxwell completely understood the torment that weighed on the commoners who had to deal with these deadbeats.
After all, magical energy was cultivated bit by bit, so in a sense, it was more difficult than earning money.
When it came down to it, one could goof around and still get paid his or her salary, but there was no messing around to cultivate magical energy—not even a bit.
Beginner Cultivators needed to cultivate 8 hours a day in exchange for one Dan unit, it was truly hard-earned magical energy.
Shortly after, under the Azure Dragon’s intimidation, Maxwell naturally brought the dragon to the planet’s Portal.
This was located somewhere on the highest peak of the planet and was completely shrouded by fog. Needless to say, no mortals, not even Pond-level Cultivators could enter this place.
The Portal was a pitch-black black hole, just like the universe’ backdrop.
Nevertheless, both the Azure Dragon and Maxwell had no fear as they stepped into it side by side.
…
A neighboring galaxy, on a certain planet.
There was a vast ocean and nearby was a barren desert.
It was clear that the environment here was still far from that of a planet.
On the other hand, a planet that has water and was able to retain it was already a place good enough for humans.
With water and light from stars, primitive life forms could be cultivated. Oxygen was not a necessity, as there were quite a lot of anaerobic organisms too.
“Wang Jinghong”, the migrant who was named after the eunuch voyager, started carrying out the evolution of life according to standard procedure.
As he jumped into the ocean, a voice shook him back to land.
“Pay back what you owe, come with me, you’ve caused some problems.”
After that, an overwhelmingly strong wave of Ancient Dragon Force came down on the entire planet.
In a moment of astonishment, Wang Jinghong unconsciously lifted his head to look at the Azure Dragon above him.
He could only see a ginormous head and body of a dragon as the bottom rest of the dragon’s body extended into space, probably tens of millions of miles away where the tail was completely unseen — truly, one could see the head of a heavenly dragon, but not its tail 1.
Amidst such amazement, it took him some effort to recall the incident and at once, he directed a murderous look towards the four people beside him.
He remembered that it was they who brought up the idea before they fled together.
