Chapter 239 - Secret Realms' Weakness
Varian remained standing, staring at the place she was a few minutes ago.
Despite how their first reunion went, there was a sense of euphoria inside him.
No.
Because of how it went, he was ecstatic.
Sia…was safe. He didn't need to ask Boo to verify if the call was fake to verify if she was real.
He knew it for certain.
Sia had changed. Unlike before, she could put on a cold face. She was much stronger than she ever was. Level 7 at mere 18. If this was known, every record of genius would be broken.
But she was still the same.
She was still worried about him. She still tried to keep him out of harm….even at her own expense.
And she cried…because of him.
"I will make up for everything. I'm no longer powerless as I once was." Varian clenched his fists and vowed.
Boom!
The sheer force of his clenching blasted the air between his palms and sent a small shockwave.
"Master, what next?" Boo asked.
As Varian was about to answer, he heard a cold voice. "The coordinates of the Order's Secret Realms."
Enigma appeared in the house at some point and said.
Varian squinted his eyes. She knew he was here, but didn't try attacking.
"Smart." He'd give her that. If she did try attacking him, she couldn't harm him and would only make an enemy out of him.
Varian thought for a while and said. His voice was transmitted out through Boo. "Isn't it better if I just give it to the army?"
Indeed, no matter how strong the Order and Guardians were, they were still insignificant compared to the behemoth called Human Armed Forces.
Even the prime families couldn't compare. It was only because they had a Sovereign that they enjoyed the privileges.
Contrary to his expectation, Enigma shook her head. "You know what's happening? Shadow Order is already on the move.
Their reinforcements from branches of other planets are on the way. The Abyssals are also going to help. They'll press on Earth's frontlines.
If I'm not wrong, Abyssals will cross tunnel into a dungeon. They'll break out of the dungeon and join with the Order.
Then they'll remove whatever tracking marks you put on them. Everything will come to naught."
Varian opened his mouth in amazement. He was expecting this to be simple like the last operation.
But he really underestimated everyone.
Slap!
Varian slapped himself and said lightly. "I should not underestimate anyone. It could cost me too much."
The great Boo transmitted those words too.
Listening to those words, Enigma raised an eyebrow. Only her eyes were visible due to her mask, but Varian felt that she was smiling.
Shooting a glare at Boo that shrunk into a ball, Varian coughed and said. "So what's your plan?"
Enigma spoke immediately. "Guardians will break open the secret realms. We have enough Level 8s to do that. Once that is done, army can take over."
Varian nodded.
Breaking open Secret Realms…
Since Secret Realms stayed in the outer space but weren't accessible without tokens, wouldn't you be invincible once you hide in them?
Without the tokens, no one could enter. You could create a world of your own, be self-sufficient and live like a King.
It was a nice dream. But reality was different.
Secret Realms were not invincible.
Say a Secret Realm was present on top of a mountain. It won't be visible to people and can only be entered through a token.
But…if you were an awakener of space, gravity or time, you could attack that Secret Realm.
If you attack at the right places with sufficient strength, then the Secret Realm would destabilize and open up to the world.
Meaning it would be visible and accessible to everyone.
So even if you discovered a Secret Realm, without strength, you couldn't own it.
It happened many times in the past. Some were lucky and stumbled into the Secret Realm.
After discovering this small world with dense aura, they thought they were going to stand on the top of the world inevitably.
But when the strong powers blasted the secret realm open and took away their control, they realized without strength, everything was futile.
"Every second is precious. Give the coordinates." Enigma said, her voice for the first time had a hint of urging.
Varian snapped out of his thoughts and nodded. "Give your comm's number."
She did and Boo sent a link.
Enigma hurriedly opened the link.
The coordinates were changing every second. Thankfully, there were also predictions of their future location.
As Enigma was about to leave, Varian suddenly said. "…I'll find her."
Enigma paused for a moment and shook her head. "She said this is the last call and I'm the only one who knows her location."
Varian leaned back into his soft chair and sighed.
If only Enigma knew, then…
No. He had one more source.
Even though it was almost futile at this point, he worked very hard for it.
{Varian
Cumulative merit points: 12,510
Current Merit points: 12,000
Status:
1. Honor Rank 405
2. First on Silver List}
He needed to hit 20,000 merit points.
Then he'll know what happened in the academy.
To be honest, everything would've been clear if Sia didn't cut off the call so early.
"After everything she went through, she is fine, that's more than enough." Varian rubbed his forehead and sighed.
Her fears might not be reasonable, but emotions never worked with logic to begin with.
"I'll have to convince her…somehow. I have two paths ahead of me. Enigma and Academy." Varian muttered.
Then he turned to Boo. It looked at him with pitiful eyes. Varian waved his hand. "Fine, fine. Don't repeat it next time. Show what's happening on the frontlines and the Order's secret realms."
Boo hurriedly nodded. Then with a wave of its hand, the ghost ship rose and flew out of the secret realm before expanding.
The room Varian was in also expanded to the size of a football field.
Then, holograms popped up.
Varian held his breath as he watched the events.
