Chapter 897 Upgrading Eternal Control

"Why so scared brother bear?" Draco teased as he chewed on some scones lightly.

"Your fear is making us uncomfortable. You wouldn't want us to be uncomfortable, do you?" Eva added while sipping tea like a princess.

The war bear heard this and felt a chill up its spine. It wanted to scream and throw the two off then run, but it knew if it did so, it would likely be slaughtered like a dog.

As such, it could only smile weakly and slow down, trying to suppress its endless fear and seem calm and pleased. Seeing its current attempt, the Evil Duo were amused.

Were they that scary?

After all, this bear itself was no pushover given its stats.

However, it was likely one of the weakest within its category. No wonder it only had a single village at the outskirts of the zone. It was likely that the other totems they passed were also newbies and the weaklings of this new rank.

However, they came here for information and to grow their power, so they did not waste too much time playing with Alexander. Eva connected their minds to his and dug out his memories and understanding of the place without causing him any latent damage.

When they did, they were both quite surprised. This grasslands area was not the final zone, but there was a giant mountain in the center of the plane. It was said that an Eternal Dragon lived atop there, cultivating day and night as well as trying to control the plane core.

The plane core was obviously the mind and will of the plane and whoever controlled it could become the plane lord. The plane lord was a god within his plane, able to expel anyone or trap them forever.

The only one a plane lord was beholden to was the World Will of the entire Eternal World, but it would hardly interfere in such matters. After all, the broken and fragments ed planes having lords who cultivated life and new power on it too was good.

It was alike a CEO who actually did work and was in the office 24/7. If subsidiary companies had their own managers who were capable and handled everything, only providing reports to him to shorten his job, why would he complain?

The idea tempted Draco and Eva, for this would be surefire way to gain control of the plane and let their people travel from earth to here to expand their power. The plane had already been digitized, so there were a 101 ways to grow their people who were used to the Boundless system.

Draco and Eva shared a look and hundreds of thoughts passed between them.

However, according to Alexander's memories, the Eternal Dragon up there was at the rank of Master, which meant its Eternal Control was above 70 points. That was a scary number that even Draco and Eva didn't dare to assume they could beat, not until they themselves were much stronger.

As such, a cruel light flashed in their eyes as they looked at all the monsters in the grasslands area. This included Alexander beneath them who shivered as the wave of cold killing intent washed over them.

These fellows would all become their stepping stones into greatness, until they eventually challenged the 'last boss' and won the plane core!

This was the confidence of Draco and Eva, as they knew that there was no way they could afford to lose. On their path to glory, they were riddled with success and a few failures they willfully ignored, so that meant their path was filled with perfection!

Even if they lost to this last boss, they would respawn, so they could try again! While that last boss has only one Eternal Talent most likely, Draco and Eva had two!

And even just their bloodline had infinite variations and branches for them to use, so there would never be a situation of the last boss getting use to their moves, but rather, it was likely that it would be them getting used to his moves!

Thinking like this, Draco slapped Alexander on the head. "Bear mount, take us onto the road of success!"

Alexander was confused by this. Brother, if I knew the road to success would I have met you?

Eva chuckled and clarified. "He means take us to the nearest Eternal monster like you with a similar level of power."

Alexander nodded and rushed in a different direction, making sure his speed was up to par while making sure his two passengers were comfortable. After all, if they got dissatisfied, they might just zap his brain into mush!

......

After about roughly a week of traveling with Alexander, Draco and Eva had fought over 30 Eternal monsters at this tier. With each of them handing over 7 experience points after being ritually murdered, Draco and Eva had climbed to a peak of power that excited them.

?Name: Draco (And Eva)

Finally, they were on the cusp of reaching the end of their trial and acquiring power beyond their wildest dreams!

However, they were unsure if the World Will would allow them to stay and use the features of this digitized world after reaching level 10, which was the goal it had set way back then.

This was a conundrum that worried the Evil Duo, so they willfully hovered at the cusp of the finish line and rather waited until they got here to decide their next move.

Initially, the plan was to gather all 9 remaining Eternal Points after leveling up to 10 and using them all at once so that they could use the explosive growth to unlock many more branches rather than strength their control of the ones they already had.

That was useless to them as they could practice all they wanted, however comprehending new branches was a herculean task that required time.

However, with their greed now sparked and their mind set on swallowing up this entire plane, these plans had to be changed. As such, Draco and Eva used the 9 points they had at this moment, while hiding within a cavern they had dug in the ground using space to displace the earth.

As for Alexander, they had left him outside to guard. After watching the Evil Duo slaughter Eternal monsters stronger than him and with bigger balls than him, Alexander firmly decided that he would not provoke these two.

They were just too scary!

As such, he lay down and watched idly for any intruders, though he doubted anyone would dare with the horrific reputation Draco and Eva had built for themselves in this past week.

When the Evil Duo allocated the points, their auras exploded, creating two large holes in the earth above them that rushed into the sky. Draco's aura was a black light while Eva's was bright while, and they both reached the peak of the plane's sky and speared out like a plague.

Alexander saw this and was shocked, barely able to remain unsquashed under the pressure the Evil Duo were releasing. Almost every being still alive on this plane could sense their power and existence.

Even on top of a mountain far away, where there was endless smog and smoke billowing from the caldera nearby, a giant serpentine being opened it slitted eyes suddenly. It raised its large head and looked towards the sky, seeing the two beams of white and black.

It growled as it felt a sense of threat from those two areas, which should be impossible for it was the only Eternal being even remotely near its own power level across this entire plane and even the nearby planes.

Its eyes narrowed as it calculated what was going on from tis slight control over the plane core. After years and years of refining it, of course it had some elementary control over the plane core, but nothing too potent, which was why it was still at this level.

Upon closing its eyes and cycling through the plane's recent history, it saw Draco and Eva appearer, the digitization of the plane by the world Will and their wanton slaughter. When the being was done, its face changed greatly and it displayed horror and anger.

These two!!

As one refining the plane core, it had long set up the ecosystem of this plane. After all, a lord needed subjects and all those eternal monsters would soon be its lackeys once it conquered the plane fully.

But apart from a few stragglers who managed to hide in time, almost every other eternal monster of every category had been slaughtered needlessly by those two.

It was as if they didn't care about having tenants here assuming they could refine the plane, like they had their own people they could use to fill the place up.

Suddenly, the giant serpent's face changed greatly as It cycled through the actions of the two once more. It had only had a passing thought that they might be coming for the plane core, but it was now certain when it saw how their actions changed once they came to the grasslands area.

No, it couldn't allow this! Even when they were new and weak, they could slaughter almost all eternal monsters in their way with ease. If they condensed the power they were now likely receiving from the World Will, then even it might not survive their onslaught!

As such, it directly woke up and raised sits large body up, causing earthquakes and some tremors on the mountaintop and the general area. It had been motionlessly absorbing the plane core for so long that some of the mountain had grown over it.

Now that it had moved, it had to shatter all these new 'beddings' and rise to its full height, which was quite large. It spread out its wings and flapped them lightly easily taking to the air where Draco and Eva had previously suffered.

Its aura wantonly spread over the plane, covering the grasslands and beyond. It hope to interrupt the power up of the evil Duo by any means, but was shocked when it realized that even its powerful aura was shattered by the power the Evil Duo were accumulating.

A sense of terror and fear enveloped the being as it finally left the smog and smoky area to come into the fresh air, directly displaying its true self to the world.

It was a Wyvern!

A red-colored Wyvern of typical western design, it was quite ugly and looked nowhere as threatening or majestic as a true dragon, but that was a perspective someone who could beat both Wyvern and dragons could have.

The rest should lift up their skirts and flee as fast as their two legs should take them the moment they even heard a Wyvern's cry.

The Wyvern, an Eternal monster of the highest level on this plane, screeched and dashed towards the area where Draco and Eva were resting. Its speed was amazing, as if the pressure of the plane did not affect it.

Whether this was due to its own power or the fact that it had some partial rights to the plane after refining the core for so long, only it itself knew the answer to that.

Whatever the case, the Wyvern screeched as it passed over the area where Draco and Eva were, seeing a shocked Alexander that was full of fear, and the meditating Draco and Eva whose eyes were closed.

With a cruel light in its eyes, the Wyvern opened its maw and gathered its breath, firing it downwards towards the Evil Duo.

Kill them while they are unable to fight back!
