BXBX NOVEL Chapter 315: Absolute Reign (3/3)
"If you have a dispute, you can solve it yourself, but we'll put our noses into things as we wish," Erix faintly smiled.
"If anyone breaks certain bottom lines, expect yourself to disappear forever."
"From now on, this is no longer a pure public area. This is Unfettered Kingdom's territory!"
"And if anyone has any objection, they can leave the card and get out of this area or fight us," Rin smiled. "We'll offer you the eternal slumber."
The meadow turned silent.
It was as if people were digesting the words and processing them logically.
The majority of average people have become overall more cautious ever since the apocalypse began. When it came to the big forces before them, it was required to contemplate hard instead of outright objecting like fools.
In the end, nobody had objections, and people scattered away to prepare for the mass moving.
The guild territories vanished one by one as the guild leaders put their guild bases at the edges of the Sanctuary Area.
Meanwhile, the general public started building houses using their Mana or Prana.
Erix also built a metal dome at the center, the so-called exchange center.
The plan was to get quick resources from the people and give them to their slaves to craft potions, items, and other things.
Naturally, he also planned to use them for farm dungeons and events when necessary.
For instance, the upcoming Prana Vein event.
…
Erix, Rin, Aria, Isabella, and everyone started working to reform the area and make it a proper town.
It was small, but Erix had abundant Metal and Prana. He gave some solid shapes and designs to the arrays of houses and created proper pathways.
The central area was kept reserved for other buildings that might built in the future, so only the Exchange Center was present at the moment.
It was closed, and the building needed staff, so a few of those slaves could fill in that hole.
But not at the moment.
"Twenty minutes left. Let's go," Erix stretched his arms and snapped his finger, teleporting Rin, Aria, and Isabella onto the floating island.
"Where are we going?" Isabella curiously asked.
"For the upcoming event that's starting in twenty minutes," Erix laughed. "The difference is that we'll be raiding a spot at another Labyrinth Tower, not ours."
"This is our kingdom now," Rin grinned. "And we'll make people depend on us and make our strength while us being their backers. Mutual benefits to progress faster than others."
"Waaa, you are planning world domination or what?" Aria chuckled.
"Well, that's not going to be easy, and we are not interested in staying here forever," Erix's eyes showed fires of ambition deep within as he said, "But while we are here, we must raise to the top before others and put our mark of domination."
Isabella smiled and said, "Only you two talk grand like that, and I missed that, haha."
"But, I am with you on this journey," Isabella's eyes resolved.
"Should we bring Aaron with us?" Amu asked.
Isabella shook her head, "The kids can absorb Mana ever since Mana veins also appeared and can get strong physically, so Aaron's focus and attention is always on training."
"He wants to become strong like Erix," Isabella chuckled. "Alfred is our guild's instructor this week, so let him train with other kids."
"Actually, let's bring them up on this island," Erix said and snapped his finger, opening a portal with its other end opening at the guild's training hall at the northeast edge of the Sanctuary Area.
"It's better to train on this island because of its superior magic atmosphere. Kids will progress faster here."
"Wait, Erix," Isabella said in an abrupt voice, her gaze pointing at the direction where those slaves had built their colony two kilometers away, on the other side of the glowing blue-water lake.
"Those people…are they properly reined?"
"Haha, don't worry. I'll create a barrier in here, so they won't dare to think of anything."
"And my Animated Spirits also watch over them," Aria cutely snorted. "If they dare to do something, my dragons will incinerate them."
"Yep. As for proper reins on them…" Erix rubbed his chin and turned to Aria and Amu, "Is it possible to create some sort of spiritual seal to restrict their intention and movement?"
"Possible," Amu nodded with a big grin. "Leave it to me. If they produced even the faintest of the intention of hurting anyone, the seal will be able to knock them out with a powerful spiritual assault."
"Great."
…
After bringing in the kids and Alfred, Erix drove the Blessed Island towards the nearest Labyrinth tower.
Moving at full speed, Erix teleported the whole island with him at the expanse of massive Prana consumption. They arrived at the nearest Labyrinth Tower ten minutes later.
Even though it was the nearest tower, it was still 1400 kilometers away.
Seeing the massive floating island above, the thousands of people were dumbfounded.
The majority of the world's people were still at Noble-order lifeform rank, but they were gradually ranking up.
"There are at least around a hundred people at Royal order rank within fifty kilometers of the area. If we count that Dwarf-tribe's location, then more," Erix said after scanning the area.
"Isabella-sis, are those clans and tribes considered natives and participate in the events?" Rin asked.
"Nope. They can't participate in events or tower floors."
"Then this area's Prana Vein is ours," Erix grinned and cracked his knuckles.
"This is our 3rd Prana Vein event. The last one was a week ago," Isabella said. "We can't simply farm Prana Stones from it. The Prana Vein zone is an underground zone with mining sections."
"Each mining section has battle challenges, so if you complete the challenge, you can occupy it to farm Prana stones."
"The deepest mines have tougher challenges, but more Prana stones. You can also challenge the people who occupied a mine to take their mine, but you can't kill anyone inside the Prana Vein zone."
Isabella finished speaking, informing all there was to the event.
"Thanks for the heads up. Now, let's go and meet some people here," Erix grinned. "Their sanctuary is 100% intact, so I guess they are not that bad."
