Chapter 1148 Time to Move
World of Adepts. The Skettis Region.
Molten Fire City.
Inside a hidden room of the adept tower.
The lord of the city, Adept Alfred, sat on a stone chair, dressed in a long purple robe. He silently looked at the young adept standing proudly in front of him and asked curiously, “Sir Greem, we don’t seem to be acquainted in any fashion, do we? What is your purpose in this sudden visit today?”
Greem was wearing his crimson robe and holding the long fire-coral staff in his hand. He smiled as he met Alfred’s gaze, calmly speaking, “My main purpose here today is to clear up all of our past grudges and misunderstandings. To express my sincerity, I have specially prepared some gifts for you!”
Greem took out an item from his storage ring and gave it a light push. The item slowly floated towards Alfred.
Alfred hesitated for a moment, but finally picked up the item and toyed with it.
However, the vampires led by Mary were more powerful than the empire of trolls in Seawoods Plane. Be it through violent oppression or gentle negotiations, making the trolls submit was only a matter of time.
As such, Greem did not interfere too much in Mary’s actions and let her deal with the situation as she pleased.
Meanwhile, Snorlax had already sent a vanguard of three hundred goblins into the Mountain Plane. They were during preliminary mapping and geological investigations. It was estimated that it would take them a month to figure out the distribution of resources in the lesser plane.
When that happened, the goblin miners and equipment could be mobilized, and they could immediately begin the excavation of ores.
However, even though there weren’t many living creatures in the Moutain Plane, there were still a few extremely territorial earth elementals. Even the goblins had to be assigned sufficient military power for this expedition!
…………
Seawoods Plane.
In a primal forest that had yet to be excavated.
The dense sea of trees covered the earth. From a distance, it looked as if the entire world was simply a canvas of green.
A strange black spot slowly moved through the air in a clearing in the woods.
Finally, as the spatial energy continued to reverberate, the singularity stretched and expanded until, at last, it was a three-meter-long spatial rift.
Pupupu!
Silhouettes flickered through the rift as a dozen lithe figures appeared from within and stabilized their presence.
After adapting to the teleportation fatigue, they could finally move freely and begin their unusual exploration in this foreign plane.
As a peak Third Grade, Mary was the first to adjust to the teleportation fatigue here.
However, for the same reason, Mary also suffered the highest amount of pressure from the plane!
Mary moved her body and beat her wings, slowly rising above the canopy.
Unfortunately, she could see no color other than green no matter where she looked.
The trolls were unlike humans.
Humans liked to cut down trees and cultivate farms to form settlements of their own. Meanwhile, the trolls preferred a simple and more natural state of life. They wore leaves and hides as clothes, subsisting on fruit and prey, living in treehouses or valleys. It was hard to discover their presence without careful searching.
It seemed like the first thing to do here was to extend their surveillance and discover the settlements of the trolls.
There was no doubt they required a tremendous number of cheap slaves if they wanted to excavate Seawoods Plane.
If they brought all the manpower they required from another plane, the exorbitant teleportation fees alone would overshadow the profit brought along by the meager resources of this plane. To save on cost, they would have to find ways to capture the natives to work as slaves.
After some simple planning, Mary turned and landed on the ground.
Her vampire subordinates had finally started getting over the teleportation fatigue. They were moving around and getting used to the planar laws here.
“Vanlier, have a few of your subordinates establish a small camp here. Stabilize the rift and prepare for the reinforcements.”
“Understood!”
“Soros, head there. Vanlier, there. Lilia, there. Spalla, there. You have three days to search as far as you can. Immediately return for a report once you discover the trolls’ tracks. Very well, you may leave now!”
“Understood!”
“Understood!”
“Understood!”
“Understood!”
The vampires acknowledged their orders and headed out, each flying in their respective direction with one or two other subordinates following after them.
Both the blood knights and the blood elves were at Second or Third Grade. They might be suffering from planar suppression, but their base power was still present. A scout of this level was no danger, given their strength.
In just three days, the vampires would be able to scout as far as five hundred kilometers with their speed.
There should be no problem discovering the trolls after covering so much ground!
