Chapter 461: Gods Tomb Champion Contest (II) (1/2)
Kryz grabbed the unconscious woman and sighed as he understood the meaning of her spying on the trio.
The Magus with the demonic features showed some sadness when he stared at the injured woman, but the boy only displayed coldness and killing intent.
”We will let King Roku decide what to do with her.” The bald elder spoke to the duo, and after seeing their approval, he secured the woman in his space ring.
With the spy problem handled, the trio stared at the portal made by Ezequiel for a moment before glancing at each other and going through it.
They would have preferred to have their meeting on neutral ground, but their mistake in allowing a spy to follow them and depending on Ezequiel to capture her already put them at a disadvantage for future negotiations.
The trio found themselves on the highest floor of the Daybreak Magic Tower after going through the portal, and immediately comfort appeared on their faces.
Above them was a giant sphere made of Quasi-Rebirth Force, and the radiation it generated was the highest on this floor.
Even someone without talent would find it easy to awaken their True Soul if they trained in this place, as the radiation would temper their souls and bodies over and over again.
The radiation wasn't of much help for Rank 5 and 6 life forms but still made them feel relaxed and in peace.
”What is King Roku's proposition that could benefit both parties?”
Ezequiel's voice drew the trio's focus, and they saw him sitting on a throne. However, the next second, their eyes widened with shock at what they saw on his left.
A little girl with black hair was eating fist-sized cubes packed with an immense amount of Origin Power.
The trio recognized the cubes as Origin Hearts. Rank 6 life forms used them to nurture their Inner Law Dimension. Each of them contained more Origin Power than one thousand high-quality origin stones, and it was extremely pure, making it easier for the dimension to use it.
Yami sneered when she saw the trio looking at her Origin Hearts and began to eat even faster.
”I am waiting.”
”Oh, yes, sorry about that.” Kriz apologized to Ezequiel and no longer bothered with the extremely bizarre girl.
”Before I start, may I know about Lord Invictus' knowledge about Gods' Tomb subsequent phases and their timeline?”
”Contrary to the first speculation, the next phase should start in twenty years instead of thirty, due to the butchering being much higher than initially expected.”
Utter shock could be seen in the face of the trio when they heard Ezequiel's words. He spoke with such a carefree attitude about information that even some Kings of the Aeternum Empire were unaware of.
”Did Lord Daybreak figure out the changes inside Gods' Tomb despite not even bothering to inspect it?” The boy, Sebastian, spoke with awe on his face.
Every great organization had people in the Transitional Plane's portals using all kinds of supernatural power to decipher the changes inside this one, and even some Beings of Laws inspecting it from the void.
Zatiel deciphering the timelines of Gods' Tomb without even getting near the plane was unbelievable.
”I don't doubt Master could do it if he wanted, but he has more important things to do. I asked the timelines to Teacher, and he told me everything, including when he thinks Rank 7 life forms will be able to enter the Transitional Plane.”
”What! The only person with that kind of information is...” Kriz did not finish his sentence as the name that came to his mind had too many implications.
If Ezequiel's words were true, then trying to use their knowledge about Gods' Tomb as a bargaining chip would be laughable.
In the end, Kriz only sighed and continued to the next topic. As for the relation between Ezequiel and the Aeternum Empire's Ancestor, he did not ask. Sometimes too much information could be dangerous, especially if you are weak.
