Chapter 281 The Strongest Being
Chapter 281 The Strongest Being
?Soon, a few months had passed.
Eternal Voyager scoured the purgatory layer, searching for Abyss Source.
In these few months, Eternal Voyager found thousands of tier 4 and 5 abyss source.
There were also hundreds of tier 6 abyss sources.
However, for tier 7, they still had yet to find any.
It seems that even in the Purgatory Layer, there is not much abyss source.
All in all, these abyss sources added about ten billion daily system points, which is simply not enough.
Fortunately, as the stronghold reached the source layer, the abyss source became more abundant.
As for the rare materials they came across, they were violently looted.
With ten million beings under his command, a resource lode can be excavated in an instant.
Conservation was unnecessary; the resource lode was directly dug to the roots.
Such a violent approach prevented the resource node from regenerating.
Maximus didn't care about this; although it was a waste, he didn't have time for conservation.
Such practice was normal on this kind of land where you would not know if you would still be alive the next day.
Only the resources near an outpost can be mined with conservation in mind.
After all, the continuous flow of resources is much more profitable and safe.
....
In the boundary of the source layer:
A disheveled man with a bare upper body was resting as he drank some wine.
Gulp~
"Tsk, this wine really hits the spot!" The man, Malgron, muttered.
"I should steal more from that flying fortress this time."
The Eternal Ruin Outpost, traveling from the boundary of the source layer, was Malgron's target.
In the past epoch, his daily supplies, like food, drink, and clothes, were stolen from these strongholds.
However, Malgron didn't dare to meet them personally to avoid putting them in danger.
Once the abyss monarchs had known that Malgron had a connection to this stronghold, such a perfect resource point would be destroyed.
Where would he get his supplies then?
In the past, when he attempted to meet with his old buddies, they nearly died coming back.
They would probably have perished if not for his forceful maneuver and the will of the Etherium realm world's will.
As for going to lower layers where the Abyss monarch dared not venture, Malgron couldn't go there either.
With the complete control of the monarch over the abyss realm, they could forcibly destroy that part of the abyss and exile him from it.
Although it would significantly damage the abyss realm, given the monarch's hatred for him, it was highly possible.
Once outside that void, although Malgron can forcibly survive, he can't find his way to return.
Without the strength of tier 10, traveling in the void can only be achieved by a tier 10 ship or some other means.
While he couldn't do anything to the four monarchs together, they couldn't do anything to him either.
Malgron was still as free as a bird, fighting when he wanted and resting when he wanted.
Over countless epochs, Malgron didn't know how many abyss monsters he had killed, but it certainly weakened the abyss realm a little.
Otherwise, how could the fragile creatures of the Etherium realm stay and even thrive in the abyss?
If not for the short time, Malgron was even confident enough to destroy the abyss himself.
Unfortunately, his home dimension would be devoured sooner or later if he didn't do anything.
By then, even with an Ultimate Physique, he would perish like a tree ripped from its roots.
Malgron could only whittle the patience of the abyss monarch, hoping to separate them even for a short time.
With his over-the-limit tier 9 strength, killing an abyss monarch should not take long.
Deciding to celebrate his victory, he spread his spiritual consciousness to find the Eternal Ruin Stronghold.
Millions of light-years of spiritual consciousness began to spread within the abyss.
Such an insane range was normal for him as he neared tier 10.
If not for the suppression of the abyss, he could even scan the whole abyss like his own little house.
"Another stronghold?" Malgron muttered in puzzlement.
A few million light years away was another mobile stronghold.
It's not that he had not seen other mobile strongholds braving the purgatory layer.
It's because the stronghold gave him a weird feeling.
If it were not for the familiar aura that was emitted by the beings of the Ethereum realm.
Malgron would ignore this stronghold like an inconspicuous rock.
"It's seemed that the abyss couldn't detect the stronghold?" Malgron muttered in amazement.
Malgron saw that the little eyes of the abyss passed around the stronghold like it was an air.
"Interesting..."
....
In Shadow Hunter Stronghold:
Malgron teleported quietly into the stronghold.
"Huh~ It seems I found a new spot!" Malgron thought excitedly.
He noticed the law of casually connected to him, and the abyss seemed to be cut off or rather dimmed.
In the past, when he interacted with the being of the Ethereum realm, the law of casually tracking him seemed to magnify andcause a chain reaction.
With such huge fluctuation, the little eyes of the abyss can easily find him.
Now, even after openly showing his body, nothing happened.
"It's seem the abyss can't really see this place?" Malgron thought excitedly.
Doesn't that mean he is free to wander around here like normal?
"Hahaha, such an interesting place!" Malgron laughed out loud, startling the beings around.
"You are?" Kelvin asked, seeing a newcomer who suddenly appeared in the stronghold.
After joining the guild, Kelvin succumbed to the reality of life.
Getting his salary and borrowing money, Kelvin advanced to tier 8.
Such a leap in strength changed his inherent impression of the guild.
In the past, he loathed those repeated and mind-numbing tasks; now, he just felt money raining, waiting for him to pick up.
Furthermore, besides occasional maintenance, they no longer need to work on repetitive tasks.
They only needed to fight or mine resources lode, which is much more enjoyable.
Seeing a barbaric man who seemed just out of a wasteland, Kelvin couldn't help but ask.
He had heard stories that some abyss monsters could disguise themselves and secretly infiltrate various outposts, so he was quite vigilant.
However, remembering that not even one abyss monster had attacked them this past decade, he relaxed a little.
"Oh, a little one could talk to me?" Malgron wondered in surprise.
Although he held his murderous aura to the limit, it's not something a normal tier 8 can withstand, and talk to him like nothing.
With a quick scan, he noticed that the elemental law of metal that the man before him mastered seemed to be merged with all the laws of the Etherium realm.
"A genius?" Malgron concluded.
However, after he scanned the others, the results were the same.
"How in the world are there millions of geniuses here?!" Malgron felt the amalgamation of complete elements permeating every individual in the outpost.
This usually only happens when one has a complete cultivation manual or a heaven-defying understanding to forcibly create one.
In the Etherium realm, Malgron was confident that there should not be a few thousand who had this ability.
Yet here, millions were scattered like vegetables on the roadside.
"Did the Etherium Realm change this much while I was away?" Malgron wondered.
"Mister?" Kelvin asks again, seeing the barbarian in front of him in a daze.
"Ahem, I'm a friend of the owner here," Malgron lied without blinking an eye.
"Do you have any proof?" Kelvin asked, not believing what he said.
Such a stupid-looking barbarian shouldn't be a friend of the guild leader.
"Is this enough?" Malgron took out a Shadowcrest emblem.
"This— This is enough," Kelvin said respectfully, with his heart pounding in fear.
"Apologies for my misdemeanor."
Fortunately, he didn't act recklessly and asked respectfully.
"It's not a problem." Malgron waved his hand, not minding the little interrogation.
"As my apology, why don't I take you around?" Kelvin suggested.
This was equivalent to a gold pie falling into the sky.
Kelvin just needed to make a good impression, and just a tap of his guild leader's finger would make him rich.
"Lead the way," Malgron said gently as he waved his hand and cleaned himself.
...
On the other side of the stronghold:
Sam showed his new girlfriend around when he suddenly felt his family emblem disappear.
"What happened, dear?" the woman asked coquettishly.
"My family emblem suddenly vanished?" Sam said with a frown.
"Maybe you forgot it at your house," the woman reasoned.
"Impossible." Sam shook his head in denial.
"Then, should you tell your father about it?"
"Hmm..." Sam nodded seriously.
Although missing the family emblem was not a problem.
If it suddenly disappeared without his knowledge, then that's a problem.
"You wait here; I'll go to my father." Sam ruthlessly left the girl in the street and flew toward their family residence. contemporary romance
"Hey, what a ruthless man." The woman pouted, seeing Sam leave her alone.
Although she had heard that this man was a scumbag through and through.
She still wanted to try her luck and see if she could climb the ladder.
Unfortunately, seeing that scumbag's careless attitude, it seemed that he didn't have any luck.
Looking at the prosperous street in front of her and considering the abundant Etherium coins given by Sam.
She decided to forget it and let herself unwind for a while.
"Let's have some fun; let's see if that scumbag will give me more money later...."
