986 Separation 2 (2/2)

”There's no need for that. Let them fight it out. Our objective is to be acknowledged by Spirit Card from the Mothership. As long as we are acknowledged, we just have to train ourselves for the next fifteen years and we're guaranteed to be able to achieve Resonance Level. We should try and ignore these battles at the moment,” Wade said coldly.

”Yes brother,” the crowd agreed.

****************

Garen was moving swiftly inside the forest. It had been five days since the major battle between the Dragon Eye Sect and Scarlet Snow Sect. He kept loitering around the area hoping to find some Energy Machinist to kill. Unfortunately, other than encountering a small group of four, the rest were at least middle-sized teams of at least ten people. Among these people, there were at least one Level Three and Level Four Energy Machinists. They're considered a formidable force considering they have the number and experience.

Garen hadn't attacked anyone as he knew that he might not be able to win against a few Low-Level Energy Machinists. Afterall, he had to use all of his might just to fight against a Level Four Energy Machinist.

The people from the Dragon Eye Sect seemed to have suffered a few ambushes as each and every one of them were on high alert. He wasn't able to ambush them at all.

Garen's ambush capability wasn't that great and considered normal to an Energy Machinist. They had too many techniques in surveying their surrounding that Garen had never seen before. However, his ambushing capability was considered incredible for a normal commoner.

He had failed numerous attempt in ambushing others and in fact he was almost ambushed back instead. Garen had given up the idea of hunting alone and decided to hide in a path while waiting for the opportunity to attack others.

With him as the epicenter, he had placed countless of miniaturized eavesdropper a few kilometers away from him. After covering these items with his Willpower, they wouldn't be detected by the electrical instrument easily.

However, as waves of Energy Machinists passed by, most of his eavesdropper were destroyed. There were only a few left that survived as the Energy Machinists were too ignorant to detect them.

Garen squatted on a tree branch as he quietly adjusted the earphone's frequency to each of the eavesdropper frequency.

Soon he overheard a small team's conversation which caught his attention.

”...Where did they go?”

”The Mothership's location. He wanted us to hide as much as possible and not make any rash moves.”

”We have big sister with us. As long as we follow Lord Nora, we should be fine. I wonder how much resources can Nora get hold of.”

”The three major sects have teamed up so let's not overthink it. It's considered a good outcome if we can secure half of it. The Spirit Mothership doesn't care who you are. If it isn't for the elders from the three major sects to reach a truce, we are considered lucky to come out alive, even without the resources.”

”How savage is this weird race?” Another tender voice appeared.

”There's nothing we can do about it. They're merchants who are able to move all the resources and not someone we local sects can deal with. We can only comply with their requirement and do nothing about it,” the former voice said helplessly.

The team left the area as he heard thus far.

”The Spirit Mothership?” Garen frowned. He had heard of this organization where it was created by a minority species which were not human. They had a huge ship which they used to test the strength of the disciples from all sects in return for resources.

They had always been friendly towards the humans and would greatly nurture the most talented people. They had a very long history and were very sociable. Hence, a lot of powerful humans were blessed by them and were even protected by them.

These species were very business minded, had a great eye for people and were very good at gathering people through networking as well. In addition to that, their origin was still a mystery.

Garen didn't expect the Spirit Mothership to land at this moment. No wonder the three major sects from the Northern Yu Province would organize a qualifier match at this period of time. It was just for this reason as well. The ranking list given by the Spirit Mothership would definitely be fair and the sects would use the Spirit Mothership to discover any hidden talents from their own sect as well. This might be the best plan the three major sects had come up with.

Garen instantly connected all the dots but he didn't even hear of such a news at all. The Spirit Mothership only stopped for a moment and the Energy Machinist who would first receive such intel would definitely be at least a Level Four. It would be natural for Bainster and his other intel collector to not receive such a news.

However, Yiling and Joey definitely knew about it and they didn't even bother telling him at all. It was obvious that they had no plan on working alongside with him at all. These two had incredible strength and in addition to that, the Scarlet Snow Sect's members were all extremely cruel. The sect itself was very similar to Blackboard Region as they would use all sorts of techniques to compete with each other.

Garen understood their action and would find it weird if they told him instead. If not for the newcomer special treatment, they wouldn't even have brought him along. Afterall, Garen was slightly weaker than them.

Garen felt that he had about seventy percent winning rate against Joey.

He couldn't find a suitable target in the wild.

”Looks like I have no choice but to go have a look at the Spirit Mothership,” Garen shivered as it was a place for one to exchange quality for resources. Rumor had it that half of the resources obtained would be given to the invigilators. However, even so it would be more than enough for everyone to breakthrough. This region was extremely fair to every Energy Machinist. As long as one had enough quality and potential, they would be invested by the Spirit Mothership.

If Garen wanted to stabilize himself in this world and even obtain Level Five resources in this world quickly, this might be the only place for him to achieve it.
