Chapter 958 - 830
Thud! Thud! Thud!
"Come in."
In the government building of the City of Two Realms, Kane gazed at the entire city through the floor-to-ceiling window behind his office.
As his voice fell.
The office door opened.
Bonona walked in from outside.
At this moment, Kane finally turned around to look at Bonona.
Upon entering, Bonona immediately bowed to Kane.
"Your Majesty!"
Kane nodded.
Just a few days ago, he had retreated from outside the Mist with Kreya and the others, and he was currently taking some time to rest.
After all, the recovery of Synesthesia requires half a month, and this half-month is the time to rest and handle affairs outside.
Kane would take this time to understand the operation of Platinum Governance during this period.
Bonona took a few steps forward and began to report to Kane the significant affairs of the Platinum Country during this time.
Since Kane had delegated authority, these were matters or special circumstances that needed to be known.
They had already been handled and did not require Kane’s intervention.
Mainly, it was to ensure that Kane had a certain understanding of his own country.
After all, as a king, he shouldn’t be unaware of what changes had occurred within his own country.
Bonona stood opposite Kane’s desk and started to report based on the compiled information in her hand.
"According to the last meeting, we have allocated members of various groups based on the distance of each combat zone, led by guild members for operations."
"The progress in each combat zone is relatively smooth; although there are injuries, no casualties have occurred. Among them, the Moon’s Children performed exceptionally well."
Hearing this, Kane nodded.
The so-called combat zones were the wanted regions surrounding them within the World Ring.
These areas were territories disrupted by races that had been exterminated under the Mist’s orders.
Although these races were few, within such an extensive area as the World Ring, they were not lacking in number.
Due to the opening between internal and external realms.
People from the inner realms needed to make contributions to promote themselves to gold faster.
For example, the Moon’s Children were all at the Silver bottleneck stage, just one step away.
Destroying these races wanted by the Mist was the quickest shortcut.
With Kane’s commerce association developing various routes, they nearly covered several surrounding areas, allowing them to swiftly transport elite small troops to target areas.
Bonona continued.
"Various forces from the inner ring have dispatched missions, mostly large or first-class guild forces and a few local forces."
"Oh, they’ve come so soon?"
The magazine that appeared last month nearly revealed Kane’s strength, and Kane foresaw at that time that various forces would definitely try to approach and seek cooperation.
Since there were no nearby forces, most of the forces came to seek collaboration with Kane.
Except for the inner ring, having first encountered the Explorers, whereby local forces were able to gain outside information after collaborating with various guilds.
In the middle and outer rings, such forces didn’t exist; the time was not enough.
Thinking of this, Kane asked, "What did these forces come for?"
"Mostly to seek cooperation; those with unfavorable conditions or insincere attitudes have already been excluded and rejected."
"For those with favorable conditions, we have agreed to cooperate."
Upon saying this, Bonona’s expression turned a bit strange.
"What’s wrong?" Kane asked.
Upon Kane’s inquiry, Bonona directly replied, "I don’t know why, but the people from the Radiant Commerce Association are particularly sincere, and their offered conditions are highly favorable; given their tremendous scale, such behavior is somewhat incomprehensible."
Upon hearing Bonona’s words, Kane thought about the lady who resembled crystal he had seen long ago.
Perhaps the situation was due to the reason of secret gatherings.
Thinking of this, Kane reached into the air, and when his hand came back out, a crystal-like card appeared in his hand.
This was given to Kane by Orochi when he entered the secret gathering.
After several subsequent gatherings.
Kane roughly understood some of the circumstances.
The secret gathering creator, Orochi, was also the last member to enter the previous secret gathering.
The person who brought him in seemed to be the current Brilliant Monarch.
It should be that the Brilliant Monarch knew Kane was a member of the secret gathering.
After all, this generation’s secret gathering and the Brilliant Monarch’s Radiant Commerce Association had collaboration.
Providing services for the secret gathering members.
Thinking of this, Kane nodded, "No need to pay too much attention, just proceed with normal cooperation."
Bonona nodded.
Then she began to report on other situations.
After understanding the affairs of the Platinum Country during this period, Kane returned to the Guild Hall.
Once again entering the training ground.
During times when they were not exploring outside the Mist, they were almost constantly in the training ground besides resting.
At this time, Kafka sitting at the Barton bar coincidentally saw Kane entering the training ground.
"The President has gone to the training ground again? Speaking of which, since the President and the others appeared, it feels like they’re in the training ground daily?"
Kafka would also go to the training ground every few days for training, almost always seeing Kane and the others, of course, this was when Kane and they were not outside the Mist.
Sometimes, while drinking and chatting in the guild, one could also hear the members chatting idly.
It seemed the President’s team, upon returning, was almost always soaking in the training ground.
At this time, Burton, who was pouring wine, heard Kafka’s words and said, "Whenever they’re not busy, they’re definitely in the training ground, it’s been like this for the past few months."
"Always in the training ground, huh." Raphael said as he drank beside him.
Rubbing his chin: "So, ever since they reached three-color level, the battles they can match are few. It’s likely the President and the others haven’t encountered battles with matching strength for these months."
This is not a random guess.
They have known Kane and the others for quite some time now.
Kane and the others enter the training ground whenever they idle just appear when there’s no battle for a long time.
Raphael and Kafka, after all, qualify for entry into three-color level, so although they haven’t reached the threshold yet, they have some understanding of this level.
"Why bother thinking so much, you’re far from reaching three-color level; let’s go, let’s go, there’s still fighting outside," Kafka said and disappeared in the Guild Hall.
Seeing Kafka’s behavior, Raphael helplessly shook his head and bid farewell to Burton before disappearing as well.
They were still leading part of the people from the Platinum Country in the combat area.
...
Kane entered the training ground and saw Kreya resting nearby.
On the field, it was Lilu and Meizike battling.
As Kane walked over, he saw Lilu’s attack hit Meizike, and Meizike vanished from everyone’s sight.
"Ah, it’s that attack again."
Kane said, sitting down next to Kreya.
"Lilu’s skill always catches people off guard."
Kreya said as she watched the battle unfold.
After a while, Meizike appeared on the field, but he was panting heavily, waving his hands to signal his surrender.
Then the two walked over, ready to rest.
Longbei looked at the panting Meizike and teased: "Not pleasant being pulled in, right?"
Meizike waved his hand, expressing he didn’t want to speak, and eventually collapsed to sit aside.
Seeing Meizike’s state, Kane couldn’t help but recall his previous battles with Lilu.
Every few matches, Kane might be drawn into the space Meizike was pulled into earlier.
This is the skill Lilu has conjured based on her Rule Chain.
Till now, Kane doesn’t know how the attack is generated.
All he knows is that once hit by this attack, he’s pulled into a Fairy Tale Space.
In the Fairy Tale Space, everything carries intense malice.
Though called Fairy Tale Space, the feeling it presents is exceptionally horrifying.
Once pulled in, one must guard against all kinds of attacks, sneaky ambushes, and unexpected traps.
Since it’s a Fairy Tale Space, all attacks and ambushes defy intuition.
You either die inside or, if you survive, you’re gravely injured or greatly depleted.
Even Kreya, once pulled in, came out with nearly half her Physical Strength.
Among them, only Kane, using his skill of creation, can adapt to all kinds of situations.
When he comes out, he feels almost nothing, instead consuming quite a lot of Lilu’s Magic Power.
Thinking of this, Kane couldn’t help but shake his head.
No matter what, Lilu’s skill, though bearable, is still nauseating.
At this moment, Kane turned to Kreya and asked, "So, any leads on your skill?"
Upon hearing Kane’s question, Kreya turned and nodded.
"Recently, I have some leads; I’m researching them to see if I can achieve results."
As Kreya mastered her abilities, she began to gather Skills too.
The first thing they need is to think of what kind of skill they need, whether their Rule Chain can successfully gather it, and if not, what’s missing?
These require time and effort.
Lilu only successfully condensed her skill two or three months ago.
And Kane just had some leads back then, eventually acquiring the colorful Magic Stone.
Which let him skip the intermediate research phase and directly got results.
And Kreya only recently gained some leads.
As for Longbei and Meizike, they were the last to advance to three-color level.
Now they have no lead at all, only engaging in constant battles; only battles can prompt quick thinking.
To ponder how to gather the skill, what kind of skill to gather, familiarize its use after gathering.
All these demand battles of equal levels.
But whenever they explore outside the Mist, they mostly encounter dead spaces, and among these fragments only a few have battles.
And the battles are seldom on the same level.
This results in them rarely fighting.
Only in the rest half-month in the training ground do they engage in frantic fights.
And the existence of the training ground and teammates of matching strength allows them to rapidly find footing at the three-color level and begin improving.
Speaking of which, Kreya stood up and pulled Kane along.
"Perfect timing, I have some ideas, let’s have a fight. Battling is the best way to think."
Saying that, she appeared at the center of the battleground.
Since Kreya invited, Kane naturally couldn’t refuse, patted his butt, and appeared opposite Kreya.
Their fight didn’t last long; mainly Kane was feeding moves to Kreya, letting her ponder her leads.
Before long, the two mutually paused.
At this time, Kane walked over, looking at the resting crowd and said.
"Everyone, I have an idea."
