Chapter 999 - The Weird Hole
Chapter 999 – The Weird Hole
If it was before, then Arthur would have to struggle to clear such a world.
However he now had a terrifying army of originals and grand dragons. All he needed to do was just release them, wait for one hour before everything settled.
During this time, Amera and others came down with their top forces. They were all shocked when they saw the terrifying one sided battle led by Arthur's troops.
Arthur seemed like he wasn't giving any heed towards this fight at all. He simply kept roaming this world and explored its places.
As he expected, it was like a world of its own. There were rivers, mountains, and even ores that he discovered. However the more surprising thing was the origin of this world.
'I think the energy here is just above the level of the intermediate world we are in,' the golden dragon said before adding, 'If I'm not mistaken, this world here is from the higher realms.'
"I agree," Arthur nodded as he held a large gem in his hand. He stood on the side of a big sea where the shores were all made by head-sized red gems, like grains of sands but a lot bigger. "If I took this into my star map, would it be counted as a world I conquered?"
His mind was settled upon taking this world and binding it to the star map. However even if this world wouldn't count, he still wanted it.
Apart from its big space, the resources here made him crave to get this world for himself. There were ores, plants and trees he never saw, plus various kinds of monsters.
Also there were many people living here. He didn't know if they belonged to some sort of a clan or they served the dark angel grandmaster with devotion or not; however he still had a large number of population waiting to be acquired.
It seemed foolish to just leave this world alone. At this moment he hoped every single island would contain such a world. If so then he would be lucky and truly grateful to the dark angel grandmaster for this awesome gift.
'Ding! I believe it won't be counted as one,' the system said, 'Ding! After all, it's not a separate world of its own. But you can try.'
"I'll take it no matter what," Arthur let down that gem and shook the dirt off his fingers before adding, "Gege, link this world to the star map."
'Gimme a minute,' Gege seemed uncertain, 'I need to check if this will work or not.'
Arthur stood in midair while watching the ongoing fight all around the world. His instructions for his troops were simple; just kill anyone resisting and leave those who surrendered alive.
Per his words, the forces kept crushing any resistance standing against them. At first the enemy forces here had high morale, thinking high of themselves.
But just after crushing tens of cities and towns, killing an endless number of these hostile forces, their confidence was crushed and seemed to be filled with cracks.
'There is an issue here,' Gege returned with the bad news, 'this world seems to be integrated inside the island. We need to find the link and sever it first.'
"The link?" Arthur turned around but he couldn't see anything special here, "use the tree then and see if there is a special place here."
'On it,' Gege went and this time she came after the fight was over.
Arthur watched his forces shout the last cry of victory before he turned towards his generals.
"This fight didn't need us," Amera said.
"But we had some fun," the crow appreciated any good fight.
"Go up there," Arthur pointed to the surface, "keep the island secured. If anything strange happens, just get inside here."
"Something like what?" Jude asked.
"Like more reinforcements?" Doaf had this thought in mind.
"Like a natural disaster befalling from the sky," Arthur didn't say it out clearly. He feared the world's wills to step in and smash his attack.
But up till now, nothing new has happened. The base island kept moving like there were no enemies on its surface smashing and destroying everything.
Even after this long hour, no one found the place to control this island.
Arthur wasn't that surprised by this. After all this isolated big world here told him that this island was unique.
Finding more trapped worlds like this one wouldn't be a surprise to him. So when Gege came back with the news, he only nodded.
'There is another hole at the center of this world,' she said, 'I believe the link must be there.'
"Everything will be there," Arthur said before turning around, "make sure to take all the people and resources they have. I don't know if I can salvage this world or not."
The next moment he started to fly towards the direction of this world's center. "Also take in all my forces and take out Fox and Lara. let the two deal with the people and the surrendering forces here.
Arthur flew through a series of portals to cover a large distance in a short time. He took around ten minutes to arrive at the central place of this world.
And there he was surprised when he saw what awaited him there. He imagined it would be a hole, just like the one he came through here.
But the hole in front of him was a whirlpool, so giant and looking massive and dangerous. In the center of it a dark abyss appeared.
Arthur flew on top of the mighty waves of this raging sea while feeling puzzled. "Is this the hole you talked about?" he couldn't help but ask to make sure he didn't come to the wrong place.
But Gege never made such a mistake before. 'It's the hole, what's wrong with it?'
'Ding! It's a dangerous hole and looking peculiar. However it suits to be the guardian of the important things below it.'
'Don't tell me you are afraid of the waters and whirlpools!' the golden dragon laughed.
"Stop it you two," Arthur said before taking a deep breath. He was startled when he saw this hole, but that didn't mean he wouldn't get inside.
And the next moment he moved and vanished into this hole.
