Chapter 1188 - 478: Reclaiming Splendid City
Alka floated in the reverse Dream Realm of the small world.
Looking at the Treasure Vault in front of him.
The Treasure Vault seemed to have no guarded gate, nor any obstructing walls, yet it seemed to have everything.
Inside, it shimmered with golden light.
There wasn’t an alleged vast amount of wealth piled inside; instead, there were one seemingly ordinary item after another floating around.
In Alka’s eyes that saw through secrets, each item could be said to be gleaming with golden light.
There were even light orbs of essence besides the items.
Indeed, these were the Holy Grail level Treasures that Alka and the others had collected over the past two years throughout the World Scar.
It’s important to know that the World Scar, the ruins left behind by a once vast Empire, contained over a hundred Holy Grail level Treasures.
Excluding those whose locations were unknown, abnormally vague in positioning, or lacking complete information. Those relics lying on demon territory.
Alka and the others only picked the ones that were easy to obtain, and they had already acquired over ten pieces.
In front of him, 13 light spots were floating.
That is to say, 13 Holy Grail level Treasures were effortlessly stored here by him.
Gradually, they also began reducing their search for Holy Grail level Treasures.
Mainly because they felt they were wasting their energy since they no longer needed Holy Grail level Treasures.
More of their effort was almost wholly focused on those orange light spots. Even if those orange light spots didn’t emanate any information, it didn’t stop them from spending additional effort searching for details.
It could only be said that these orange Treasures were indeed harder to obtain than the Holy Grail.
Rarely were they randomly left behind after their previous owner’s death. Even if the owner died unexpectedly, these Treasures would be hidden under some action of the owner.
After all, those able to wield these Scepter level Treasures were not weaklings in life.
And in front of them, these 13 Holy Grail level Treasures were also nearly the limit of what they could acquire.
More golden light depended on whether they could gather more information to expand and guide them further.
However, for now, these dozen or so pieces couldn’t find a good way to be dealt with and were temporarily placed here just like this.
After taking a look, Alka tore through the space and left his small world.
After exiting, he looked at the night sky.
"It’s time," Alka said, and then returned inside the room.
...
The next morning.
Everyone gradually woke up.
Jason and the others had just returned, so they had nothing to do at the moment and relaxed all around the hall.
Alka took a bite of breakfast, then looked over at Ulu Liwus, who was playfully fighting Jason with pillows.
"Ulu Liwus."
Upon hearing Alka’s call, Ulu Liwus paused his actions.
Then a pillow smacked him on the head, and he fell onto the sofa.
"You actually ambushed me?"
"Do not let down your guard; this is a battle!"
Seeing the two about to start again, Alka helplessly rubbed his forehead and said directly, "Don’t you want to include the Splendid City into the small world?"
Upon hearing this, Jason and Ulu Liwus simultaneously paused their actions. Not only they, but everyone else in the hall turned their heads to look at him.
"I’ve reached the Sixth Stage, tried it last night, and should now be capable of incorporating the entire Splendid City into the small world.
This way, whether it’s the repair of the city or the use of the most valuable Great Library, we can access it anytime."
Actually, they had the capability before.
It’s just now it might be more secure.
"Of course, I’ve thought about it, but..." Ulu Liwus said somewhat conflicted.
"It’s too far. Even at top speed, a round trip would take more than two years, too long."
That’s the main issue.
The Splendid City floats in the sky and doesn’t move with the sea, nor does it drift randomly like the Drifting Island.
Meanwhile, the World Scar is firmly fixed in place and won’t drift with the sea in circles.
The distance between the two is extremely vast.
A round trip of two years is the minimum estimate.
It’s calculated to take three years to complete.
Spending three years just to take the Splendid City seems too extravagant.
And given Alka’s current threat level, once he dares leave the World Scar.
By then, it wouldn’t just be the devouring mouth.
Everything would come after him.
Before that huge threat of the devouring mouth is cleared, the existing animosities would deepen considerably.
Other demons wouldn’t easily let it go, and venturing out would only be more dangerous.
Simply put, the benefits don’t match the threats, and it’s not necessary. The Splendid City won’t run away.
Upon hearing this,
Alka couldn’t help but smile, but before he spoke, Chadite stopped his painting and rolled his eyes at Alka.
Reminding everyone, "If he’s mentioning this now, he definitely has a method, don’t get fooled."
Hearing this, Alka glanced at Chadite: "Such a killjoy."
"Alright, out with it, stop stalling."
Alka helplessly shrugged his shoulders: "I do have a way to get there quickly; do you want to join me?"
"I’m more curious to know the method you’ll use than joining you," said Lucilia, sitting with a massive book on the coffee table.
"Dream Realm."
"Dream Realm?" everyone asked.
