Chapter 1257 - 501: Leaving the World Scar
The sound of rustling came, the sound of a pen sketching on paper.
He looked under the light.
At a desk in the living room, Alka was writing something.
Chadite came up behind him, gently resting her head on his shoulder.
With her body close, she watched what he was writing.
There were originally 11 numbers on the booklet, but most of them were now crossed out.
Only three numbers remained on the page.
"Are all these crossed-out ones the Towers of Trial already collected by the Four Gods Church?" Chadite asked.
Alka shook his head.
"On the contrary, the Four Gods Church controls 8 Towers of Trial in their hands."
This information was recently given to him by Bref.
The Four Gods Church emerged, and almost all forces controlling the Towers of Trial were willing to hand over control to the Church.
Mainly for many large forces, the Towers of Trial were useful but not to the extent of offending the Church to keep them.
After all, if the Tower of Trial lacked formal status, it was merely a training machine.
People entering the Tower of Trial must also meet requirements.
Those who deemed the Tower of Trial as very useful couldn’t possibly offend the Church, and had to hand over control to them.
And out of the eight controlled Towers of Trial, only four were actually under force control.
The other four stayed as they were, with small factions often using them.
Similar to the one Alka and his team used before.
As for the remaining three.
Clearly, the forces in charge, for various reasons, were unwilling to hand the towers over to the Four Gods Church.
Alka and his team’s main goal now was to take control of these three forces’ Towers of Trial.
Chadite watched as Alka added another number in front of each serial number.
"What are you writing?" Chadite asked, puzzled as she couldn’t understand.
After finishing adding the numbers, Alka smiled and said, "Sorting them by the distance to the World Scar."
Chadite nodded in understanding, then frowned in surprise, asking, "So soon? Are you... advancing to the Seventh Stage?"
After all, this kind of plan seemed too quick if not close to the Seventh Stage.
Upon hearing this, Alka nodded.
Before obtaining the Meditation Stone, the strength improvement beyond the Sixth Stage was not very fast.
But after the Meditation Stone was created, they entered a fast-paced meditation, quickly enhancing their strength.
They further developed the Meditation Stone’s potential by maintaining it in overload mode.
Because it was a Treasure, the overload mode had no effect on the Meditation Stone.
Additionally, Alka’s rapid increase in the Dream Realm and how it corresponded to reality rapidly widened the gap between him and others.
He was now close to advancing to the Seventh Stage, with the spiral in his body reaching the perfect state of the Sixth Stage.
Now in the brewing stage, it would only take a few days to progress enough for advancement.
"So fast?" Chadite couldn’t help but ask.
Alka smiled and asked back, "How long do you estimate before you can advance to the Seventh Stage?"
Chadite felt it out and thought for a moment, "At the current pace, at least a year."
A year later.
According to the current meditation and everyone’s pace, Alka was still in the lead, followed by Jason and Ulu Liwus.
Then it was Chadite.
Their common trait was the completion of Scepter Level Treasure collection.
Others were slightly slower than Chadite, but not much different from each other.
"Are you preparing to leave after advancing to the Seventh Stage?" Chadite asked.
Alka nodded.
"Yes, we can actually start preparing now."
Their conversation echoed in the corners of the night.
......
Time flew by.
In the council of the Vastwa people.
Alka was seated there.
"Are you preparing to leave?" A council member asked Alka and his team.
They had just received the news.
Alka nodded: "Although we can’t deal with the Devouring Mouth now, it also can’t threaten us anymore.
The tricky problem is solved, it’s time to leave, and you’ve already settled here."
Upon hearing Alka’s words, the council members looked at each other, momentarily unsure of what to say.
Only the Great Elder sat hunched at the main seat.
"Do you have any advice on how we should develop here?"
Clearly, they had chosen to settle here, and Alka’s departure was inevitable as part of a Treasure Hunting Team.
Looking at the Vastwa people in front, Alka sighed and said, "What I say now, do not spread it. Just execute it quietly."
Hearing Alka’s words, everyone became serious. The Great Elder and several council members immediately nodded, sitting upright and listening intently.
Then he gently waved his hand, seemingly controlling something, as the windows and doors of the meeting room closed completely, soundproofing it.
