Chapter 1003 - A Risky Plan
Rhode laid his hands down, quietly gazing at the spots of light fading away. After the final spot of light vanished, he turned around and left the room without looking back. Everything that he experienced here had ended, just like in the past, present, and future. The beginning of a phase meant the end of another.
Same went for everything else.
When Rhode returned to the meeting room, the four of them displayed awkward expressions. Arthur gaped, but didn’t speak a word. Ningmi and Ningjing looked at Rhode with complications. Serena let out a cough upon realizing their reaction, but when she was about to speak, Rhode raised his hand and stopped her.
“Alright, there’s no need to talk about the past anymore. I’ve heard enough and don’t wish for it to repeat. We need to get back on the right track. I suppose we don’t have time to waste on consoling and having a heart-to-heart chat.”
“You’re right.”
Arthur immediately composed his emotions for business. Then, he stretched out his hand and retrieved four crystal-clear crystals. Inside the beautiful crystals were countless, tiny, constantly revolving runes. They formed a strange, mysterious formula, flashing across the surface of the crystals. Rhode took the four crystals and clearly felt a pure energy exuding from within them. Arthur was right. Rhode didn’t understand the differences between Order and Chaos in the past, but now the crystals in his hands were the perfect representation of Order. Rhode sensed the power of Order coalesce within the crystals, as though they were dismantled furniture, which was then packaged and left right there. All he needed to do was to release it from the crystals and install them according to the steps. They would then become the most natural and perfect system.
“After you return, you will need to activate these crystals beside the signal tower, Mr. Rhode. Order within them will automatically complete the next step. You just have to check the system interface from time to time and ensure there are no issues with the merging of Order. Don’t worry, it won’t be a difficult task. We have injected corresponding knowledge in them. As soon as you activate them, you’ll receive the content in them, Mr. Rhode.”
“Why me? Can’t the other dragon soul heirs do it?”
Rhode knitted his brows. In fact, he wasn’t interested in managing the data of a world all day like a Game Master. Game Masters had shift rotations and weren’t even doing the job alone. Were they intending to let him manage the world alone for the rest of his life? Arthur showed a forced smile to Rhode’s question.
“I’m really sorry, Mr. Rhode. Everything including the search data fused with your body when you transmigrated. That is why only you can execute adjustments through the system. Of course, the other dragon soul heirs will also sense the subtle changes in Order. But with their abilities, they will have difficulties making adjustments and changes on a high level. Mistakes may even occur by accident if they aren’t careful. This is why we can only rely on you.”
“Firstly, I want to be sure of something. The Dragon Soul Continent should be just like what you described: a world wrapped inside an egg, with the dragon soul protection as the shell, right?”
Rhode asked sternly. In fact, he wasn’t too confident of this thought. After all, everything he knew was based on the game and now, since the ‘creators’ were here, it was most important for him to gather information.
“You’re right.”
Although they didn’t know what Rhode was building up to, they eventually nodded. But Rhode didn’t seem too assured yet. He asked again.
“Just to confirm, the dragon soul protection envelops the entire continent, including the four elemental planes, Seven Fantasy Boundaries, and hell, right?”
“Yes. The Seven Fantasy Boundaries and four elemental planes are on the main plane. But as the concepts of existence are different, it isn’t possible for people to discover their presence. As for hell… it is less obvious. They didn’t only make use of the dragon soul power to protect themselves from Chaos, but they also took advantage of the Order barrier. But in terms of strength, it is almost the same.”
“In this case… I think it will work…”
“What exactly are you trying to do, Mr. Rhode?”
Serena asked nervously, gazing at Rhode’s proud expression. No matter what this was the world that they created. If there were any accidents, they wouldn’t be able to return and make up to him.
“Simple.”
At this moment, Rhode seemed to be in a good mood. The edges of his mouth lifted uncharacteristically into a smile. He spread his arms apart.
“Since we can’t beat it, we can only escape. There is an infinite amount of Chaos and we can’t possibly win. In this case… Why can’t we build an ultralarge Dimension Gate and transport the entire Dragon Soul Continent to another world? Even though other worlds may also not be safe, compared to a continent flooded with Chaos, wouldn’t it be a great choice? If we transmigrate to a place similar to Earth where Chaos poses no threats, wouldn’t our future lives be much safer?”
The Creator Dragons were bewildered.
