Chapter 1007 - Directions to The Future (2/2)

“These things are closely related to reality. However, this world lacks the concept, that’s all. In our world, it is really common to have this concept. You learn and gain knowledge and power—these are the experience points. After you reach a certain level with your studies, you can break through the bottleneck and reach a new stage—this is level up. Even though I don’t really understand how rules work in this world, I suppose they add a standard to original behaviors, that’s all.”

That makes sense… considering the years we spent playing ‘earth simulation’ games. This isn’t too surprising.

“Alright then. Let’s discuss the next and most important problem.”

Rhode turned to Lapis.

“Lapis, as I have explained, if we were to transmigrate the entire Dragon Soul Continent to another world through the Dimension Gate, how do you judge the risk levels and feasibility based on our current technological level? How long do we need?”

“Ah, yes… Sir, please give me a moment to think about it…” Lapis knitted her brows and pondered deeply. Then, she turned to Marlene and they whispered into each other’s ear. Lapis shook and nodded her head, before looking up and spoke to Rhode. “I’m sorry, Sir. We have limited information on our hands, especially about the Dragon Soul Continent and the node installations…”

“I can resolve them.”

Rhode shook his head and interrupted Lapis. Then, he reached out for a gemstone in his pocket—the item that the Creator Dragons had given him. After returning to this world, Rhode checked its contents, but eventually couldn’t figure them out. He was better off leaving it to the experts.

“All information regarding the Dimension Gate and other areas are inside this gemstone that the Creator Dragons have given me. I need you and Marlene to research and confirm the amount of materials, time, and manpower needed for us to execute this plan as soon as possible. Also, find out the location we should set the items, as well as the various dangers and situations that will happen. If your current tasks aren’t that important, delegate them to your assistants. This new task will be your main priority. Oh, by the way, I’ve made my decision regarding the production issue of the magic furnaces. The civilians are allowed to purchase them in limited quantities. As for the other aspects, we will make them on our own.”

“Got it, Rhode.”

Marlene nodded slightly. Then, she gazed worriedly at the man before her.

“You intend to convince the other dragon soul heirs?”

“There is no harm in trying. If worst comes to worst, we will just have to do it ourselves. I know it is cruel, but it is up to them to seize the opportunity as it presents itself. If they put their heads in the noose, then it is their freedom to wait for death to fall upon them…” Rhode spread his arms apart and shrugged. “I will try, but don’t pin too much hope on me. After all, who can ever read their minds?”

“Yes… You have to threaten, blackmail, and deceive everything in order to become the perfect diplomat.”

Marlene sighed and shook her head. Just as Rhode mentioned, it would be extremely tough to convince the other dragon soul heirs to agree with him. Rhode had his eyes on the future while they focused on the present. Of course, courage and imagination were required to come up with imaginary future plans. One would only relate to reality when it was formed by past, present, and future.

“Senior Heart.”

Rhode shifted his gaze to Orchid Heart.

“I need you to form an elite team to eradicate Chaos. Like us, they will accept missions, eliminate Chaos, and receive rewards. Form a comprehensive team and leave them in Gillian’s care. I abstracted some information from Grazite’s soul stone and it seems like Chaos isn’t going to stay silent. We have to be prepared before that.”

Orchid Heart nodded slightly. Then, she yawned, before responding.

“I have no problems finding people for the team. But Rhode, what should we do if we lose them?”

“Don’t worry about it.”

The corners of Rhode’s lips lifted.

“I have said earlier that after the rules merge, this continent we’re on will become similar to the one that we know. In other words, some things that can only be accomplished in the game can also be done here.”

“What you’re saying is…”

Everyone stared blankly. Shortly after, Canary, Mini Bubble Gum, and Orchid Heart returned to their senses. Mini Bubble Gum blinked in excitement as she gazed straight at Rhode. Rhode looked at her and nodded slightly.

“That’s right, Bubble. It is just as you think. The moment for you to display your full potential will come in the future.”
