Novel Full 1079 Using The Castle Ability
As expected, the other side remained all silent and didn’t send me a single message afterwards.
In fact I doubted he’d even be alive or conscious after what I just showed.
My castle was indeed a scary weapon to use. However it wasn’t that useful for me actually.
What was the point in increasing the time spent here? I looked around, and the only empty place was here.
It was nice to stay and have some time to rest. But for someone like me, it wasn’t that cool to lay down for such a long time.
Turning months into long years would turn me into an old man so soon! Damn! This wasn’t my plan or intention to begin with!
Wasting two or more years of my lifetime confined here doing just nothing? This wasn’t my style of play.
As I confirmed that the unwanted enemy wasn’t going to say anymore, I returned to think about my plans here.
I had to stay inside for two and half years. Such a long time was indeed precious. Instead of just wasting it in a single direction, why not make the best use of it?
I knew that time would behave differently at places I never went to. For example, Silverlining and his Toranks race personnel would always experience time exactly the same as I experienced.
So that meant I’d have two and half years of their support. And looking back at my large stack of bones, this meant I got nearly not enough to sustain our deals for even a few months.
What should I do then?
I got only bones from killed enemies. The stronger the better. And as I was inside such a useless place now, I couldn’t see it but a huge prison that I couldn’t escape from.
“If I can’t get out to collect bones, then isn’t it better to change the world here into one that will give me tons of bones instead?”
This thought started to grow fast inside my mind. I had to adapt to such a prison.
So instead of just accepting this, I could instead look for other ways to harness bones.
For example, I could purchase lots of monster dens from Silverlining, or use the ones I got already. Then I’d allow many forces to come here and fight against them.
Just like this, I’d have a way to collect bones. They might be mostly low grade ones, but they were better than nothing, right?
Aside from this, I got to think about using this time into something else.
“I can bring them in and let them do their research here,” this was another benefit of using such a huge amount of time.
The research department out there was all brilliant and got lots of great ideas. Yet ideas alone wouldn’t help.
They needed time. For any researcher, time was their greatest foe.
So instead of letting them work out there, why not lead them here and let them do anything wanted in this pocket world?
I got that secrecy was important, and they needed a place secure from anyone else to test their inventions.
“Why not allocate the second layer totally for them?” I thought and the more I thought about it I got pleased by the idea.
The lower layer wasn’t as spacious as this one. Yet it was secluded and separated from here.
So they could work there freely and develop all kinds of deadly weapons as they wanted.
“The problem of resources can be solved by Silverlining and its impact,” I thought before placing the final touches over such a plan.
“As for the plan to open cultivation for my humans… I can use the help of the castle then…”
To me, elongating the time spent here was bad. Yet I have a huge problem with the lack of time for such a plan to succeed.
Last time the test subjects used in this experiment took long months to produce reliable results. Months might seem long, but under the help of the castle time manipulation, even with using the standard two fold passive boost ability, such problems would be solved.
I started to look at my castle. I couldn’t just allow modifying it or else I’d be shooting myself in the foot.
I checked the entire description of the castle before finding what I wanted.
[…The Fearful Castle has the following abilities that are based and tailored on the current king’s time manipulation ability:
-Time manipulation ability at the closed world of the castle: Can be used while the castle is stored inside the king’s inventory, or can be halved when used at the real world where it’s summoned in a world where the king is.
The passive time manipulation effect is 1:2 of the real world time.
Paying daily one thousand death units or monthly ten thousand death units will increase this ratio as 1: 10, 1: 15, 1: 20, all the way up until it hits the upper limit.
The price for activating the highest time manipulation effect, 1: 100 is one million daily death units or twenty million monthly.
The range of effect is limited to the castle region when stored, ten miles around it when it is in the outside world. The king can pay ten thousand death units daily or one hundred thousand death units monthly to increase this range by a hundred miles each time…]
“This will do,” I didn’t hurry to celebrate before I turned my eyes towards something important.
The death energy stored within this castle!
Before it was so damn low to activate anything. However after using the castle in my battles, and me joining the massacre of millions upon millions, I knew this record was bound to be good.
“Damn fierce!” Yet when I checked, I couldn’t help but suck in the cold air of breath. “Over five hundred million dead energy? Damn!”
It was something unbelievable. Yet when I recalled the strenuous situations I faced after gaining this castle, the deadly fights I took part in and the training grounds at my world out there, I knew this made sense.
