Ch. 3071..3080
Chapter 3071 No Warning Necessary
Everyone was still staring at Levi in disbelief and shocked by his seemingly naive actions and speech.
“Ah! I think I know your concern! You think I don’t have what it takes to ask for the box, right?” Levi mumbled.
Whoosh…!
The next moment, a cold, blinding flash of light appeared and lit up the whole site.
The God Crusher made its appearance!
Boom!
The God Crusher emitted a horrifying burst of energy, and before anyone could realize what was happening, all two hundred Deities fell at a go, pierced to death in a single stab.
Although it looked as though they were killed by the same stroke, it was an illusional effect due to the lightning speed of Levi’s strokes.
Within a second, all two hundred Deities from Xyperia exploded into a mist of blood and disappear right before the eyes of the mysterious man.
He was stunned by the sight of two hundred Deities being eliminated at a go, a feat no one had thought was possible.
Since he left Zarain, he had never worried much about Levi. He thought Levi was a weakling he could easily fool around with.
It was beyond him that Levi possessed such mighty powers! The power Levi displayed was comparable to those from his clan, and they had the super-spiritual ley line!
How was it possible Levi could possess similar powers?
He started to panic, even though he knew he was formidable himself. However, power was relative, and he was only confident he was strong when compared with the Deities.
Levi was obviously a league above those Deities, and comparable to himself.
He had grossly underestimated the power of Levi.
He did not think anyone other than he and his clan would possess such extraordinary power.
“Do you know who I am? How dare you think of stealing my possession! Kneel and apologize, and I may consider cutting you some slack!”
Those mysterious people from Zarain had a huge ego and an inflated sense of superiority.
He never knew what fear was and would definitely not think of succumbing to Levi’s demand to hand over the magical medicine.
Levi laughed at his demand to kneel and apologize.
“Hand over the magical medicine, then you can tell me who you are!” Levi was a little curious and would like to know who the man was and where he was from as well.
“You want to know about me? Do you think you are good enough to ask about me? You are not!” The man retorted arrogantly, then added, “You must be tired of living, that’s why you foolishly think of stealing my possession!”
“Oh really? Then I might as well finish you off!” Levi replied with a laugh.
“Kill you, then I can take your things. As for your identity, I am sure I will find out when your family and friends come to seek revenge for you,” Levi said.
Whoosh…!
The God Crusher was floating in the air and taking aim at the mysterious man.
It’s terrifying power was reaching out toward the man and causing him to back off in fear.
“I doubt you dare to do that!” He was still retorting pridefully, despite showing fear in his unconscious moves.
“Kill!” Levi coldly ordered, and instantly, the God Crusher transformed into a flash of light and went straight toward the man.
Rumble, rumble, rumble…
The mysterious man started surrounding himself with a shield of powerful energy and rings of halo appeared on his arms. There were peculiar symbols on the halos, and those halos seemed to give him intimidating power.
The halos gathered in front of him and formed a glowing shield. The symbols on the shield interacted with one another and empowered him with seemingly never-ending spiritual energies.
The shield appeared to be impenetrable and able to withstand the attack of most divine tools.
Unfortunately, he was up against the God Crusher. It penetrated the protective glowing shield effortlessly and went straight into his body.
His body started to fade and disintegrate, vanishing into thin air.
The disbelief look in his eyes at the final moments betrayed his feelings. He had not expected Levi would kill him so decisively without any warning.
He was only playing hard to get and was prepared to tell Levi who he was if pressured.
However, Levi had no patience for such ego games. It was not important for him to find out who the man was. He was certain he would find out sooner or later, whether directly from the man or from his clan in the future.
Chapter 3072 Investigate Shield
The man was helpless to do anything.
Had Levi waited for just a moment before, he would have revealed his identity.
Although the power backing him up was powerful, he was nowhere as strong as Levi.
Hence, he would be left with no choice but to reveal himself.
He probably never imagined that the act he put on would eventually lead him to be killed by Levi.
After killing the man, the secret lock box quickly flew into Levi’s hands.
He remarked calmly, “I just wanted you to reveal your identity. You’ve only got your own arrogance to blame.”
After settling everything, Levi left.
No one could have imagined that the mysterious man and the two hundred Deities would die so pathetically.
Levi was simply too fast. He had spent barely ten minutes catching up with them and killing them all.
Everyone had the illusion that Levi had just left the island, so he would have no time to catch up with them, let alone kill them.
The person in charge of the auction only released Levi so that he could suffer from the agony of seeing his daughter’s hope slip away.
Because of this, they had actually been keeping an eye on Levi.
When Levi disappeared the moment he left the island, everyone thought that they had lost him.
Just when they were about to report it, Levi appeared.
The time period was so short that no one paid attention to it.
After all, they figured that there was nothing that Levi could do in such a short timeframe.
He would have no time to find out where the mysterious man was, let alone steal the magical medicine and kill him.
Levi had disappeared for such a short time that no one suspected anything.
At the moment, Levi was fiddling with the secret lock box, but he did not dare to open it by force.
He reckoned he needed to get a professional to unlock it.
Why didn’t the ancient manual that my master left contain a heavenly lock? Otherwise, I could’ve solved it myself. The treasures that he left me can only be used for the previous era. Things are changing so rapidly now that they can’t be used anymore. I guess I can only place my hopes on the person Bruno mentioned…
On the island, the mysterious man’s three hundred and thirty-five thousand spiritual energy crystals were being transported over slowly.
Cargo planes kept landing and flying off from the island.
“Huh? What’s this?”
The people planted by Levi on the island soon found some clues.
After some investigation, they realized that the huge cargo planes were coming from Shield in Zarain.
Furthermore, the delivery personnel all belonged to Shield.
Naturally, this had to be investigated further.
The personnel had even concealed their identity. If Levi’s men had not investigated it so clearly, it would have been impossible for them to find anything.
Is the mysterious man who has as many resources as Levi related to Shield?
This was crucial information.
When Dr. Erebus relayed the information to Levi secretly, Levi was stunned.
He did not expect Zarain to be involved in this.
The power behind Zarain!
Back when the Defenders of the Galaxy attacked the Lab of Gods’ testing ground and used those specially-designed weapons, Levi had already suspected that there might be other forces supporting Zarain.
Otherwise, it would have been impossible for Shield to produce such advanced weapons.
Furthermore, The Infrangible Handcuffs that Shield had used on him were evidently far more advanced than the technology they currently had.
This proved that there was another organization, similar to the Lab of Gods, backing Zarain up.
Naturally, nobody realized anything then because all the attention was focused on the surviving minions from the Lab of Gods’ testing ground.
Now that I’m thinking about it, this is actually quite terrifying.
When the spiritual energy engulfed the world, Zarain had the Sky Barrier within the borders of the nation to block the aggressive ravages of the spiritual energy.
It was an even more challenging project than Erudia’s Shelter.
After all, a single barrier could cover all of Zarain.
No one had thought about this before.
However, now that Levi mulled over it, he was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat.
The equipment was downright terrifying.
Chapter 3073 Assumptions About The Sky Barrier
The technology and resources used for the Sky Barrier were so advanced that it was simply unimaginable. In fact, nowhere else in the world would anyone possess such cutting-edge technology.
When the Sky Barrier was activated, everyone was astonished.
It single-handedly transformed everything in that area, as if it had created an entirely independent world from everywhere else.
Even the force and magnetic fields had been completely changed.
One could only imagine how horrifying the barrier was to have such power.
No one could even fathom how much it must have cost to accomplish this.
This was not a technology that could exist in this world, even for Zarain.
Although their technology was quite advanced, they had not reached that level yet.
Now, Levi was guessing that the fuel used to activate the Sky Barrier was actually spiritual energy.
In the past, the energy resources that the world had were only things like sunstones.
However, Levi believed that it was impossible to use those to activate the Sky Barrier.
These fuel and energy supplies did not have the capacity to activate such a piece of equipment.
This proved that there was another powerful force backing Zarain up.
Perhaps, they had already expected the spiritual energy revival. Perhaps, they were already able to control the spiritual energy crystals.
That seemed to be the case now.
Since that mysterious person had as many resources as Levi and was able to compete with him till the end, it meant that he had sufficient resources.
Furthermore, Levi guessed that this mysterious organization was probably using the spiritual ley line to survive.
Considering that they had such rich resources, they must have control of an extensive spiritual ley line.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for that mysterious person to compete with him using resources.
However, Levi did not expect that they had a super-spiritual ley line as well—one that was not inferior to the super-spiritual ley line in the South Pole.
He finally understood why Zarain was not anxious despite not having any Deities, nor did they reveal any information.
There was a reason why Erudia was so anxious. Without Deities, Erudia could not protect itself.
Naturally, people of the nation would be scared.
However, since Zarain had a powerful force backing it up, they were not afraid of anyone.
They had all these resources and the ability to mobilize them. Hence, they were not scared of Deities.
“Haha!”
Levi laughed.
Initially, he thought that Xyperia was the most powerful. He did not expect Zarain to be even more terrifying.
Levi suddenly remembered how the Sky Barrier used by Zarain made the eighteen Archangels of Sacroria disappear in an instant. Even their power had been locked by that equipment.
If it was used now, they would be undefeatable.
Since the Sky Barrier could prevent Deities from using spiritual energy, it meant that those Deities would become useless.
But since you dare to go against me, I’ll definitely end you all. Once I’ve cured my daughter and destroyed both Xyperia and Idrae, I’ll sniff you all out! I have always been a vengeful man, so I’ll never spare anyone who dares to target me!
His current goal was to figure out how to open the heavenly lock.
As for Zarain, he would ask Black Hawk later to see if there were any updates.
With that, Levi returned to Erudia with the magical medicine.
Meanwhile, Dr. Erebus and the rest were still locked up on the island. Although they could move around freely, they were not permitted to leave the island.
They could only be released after that person was completely safe. However, they did not stop investigating the identity of those masked people.
Dr. Erebus planned to find out where all of these resources were being transported to. He figured that as long as they waited patiently, they would definitely discover something.
Just like that, he continued waiting.
Soon, the troops transporting the resources appeared.
To Dr. Erebus’ surprise, he recognized them.
Chapter 3074 The Heavenly League Is Involved
Digital God, Bruno, Troy, and the rest were astonished.
What a coincidence! It’s them?
They recognize the bunch of people as members of Erudia’s Heavenly League.
Turns out they’re the ones who are here to transport the resources?
This was something no one could have expected.
Erudia’s Heavenly League is here to transport the resources. Does this mean that the auction was actually organized by the Heavenly League to humiliate Levi? That’s impossible!
The Heavenly League was established by The Cardinal Hall, whose members were extremely familiar with Levi.
How can this be possible? It definitely isn’t them! Perhaps, they had been tasked to do this by someone else. Maybe they’re only here to transport the resources and nothing else. But, why is the Heavenly League dragged into this, in the first place?
Initially, they planned to capture all those people wearing masks and rip them off, exposing them. However, now that the Heavenly League had appeared, they scrapped that plan.
Things might be more complicated than they had expected, so they did not dare to make any reckless moves.
It was better to wait for Levi’s decision.
They still wanted to continue observing the masked men in order to confirm their identities when chaos struck.
They just received news that the two hundred Deities from Xyperia and that mysterious man had vanished into thin air, including the Ten Millenium Snow Lotus.
It was like they had been killed.
Xyperia soon confirmed this.
They had installed a chip into every Deity so they could check the Deities’ location and health.
However, the chips revealed that all two hundred Deities were dead, with not a single one of them surviving.
This could only mean that the mysterious man had died as well.
It was obvious that the attacker was targeting the magical medicine.
Naturally, everyone’s first suspicion was Levi. However, since Levi was being monitored all along, it was impossible for him to do anything.
Furthermore, those two were in different locations.
“Quick! Transport them away as soon as possible!”
Chaos broke out on the island. They quickened their pace in transporting the resources to prevent any unexpected events from occurring. Noticing that something was amiss, Dr. Erebus quickly informed Levi.
When Levi heard that, he was astonished. The Heavenly League is transporting the resources?
Levi, who was coincidentally in Erudia, immediately contacted Daxon. After hearing what he had to say, Daxon was similarly stunned.
“No, I’ve never issued any instructions to them, much less asked them to transport those resources back. Since that mysterious organization is already targeting you, how can I possibly collaborate with them? Besides, I don’t even know who they are.”
Daxon was completely puzzled.
Although the Heavenly League was established by The Cardinal Hall, Daxon was not the person in charge. Instead, it was Edmund.
Since Edmund was the most powerful deity in Erudia, it was better for him to lead the Heavenly League.
After all, it was an age where the strongest ruled.
If anyone else was to take that position, no one would be convinced.
Levi laughed. “Well, I can’t think of any possible reasons why you’d be involved with them either.”
Daxon said suspiciously, “I don’t know whether it’s my son’s decision or not. Let’s ask around. This is a serious issue, so we must get to the bottom of this.”
“All right. Let’s do this quickly. Perhaps, this has nothing to do with him,” agreed Levi.
He recalled how those forces like the Black Sky Union had tried to snatch his resources.
Back then, it seemed like someone from the Heavenly League had leaked some information and distracted Azure Dragon and the rest away.
It was possible that the culprit was collaborating with the mysterious organization that was targeting Levi.
He just did not know who the person was.
This needs to be investigated clearly!
Since Edmund was in Erudia, both Levi and Daxon quickly found him.
Daxon demanded, “Edmund, did you send your men to collaborate with outsiders? The Heavenly League has already gone to the island to transport the spiritual energy crystals back!”
Chapter 3075 Is It Really Edmund
Initially, both of them thought that Edmund was oblivious to all of this. To their surprise, however, he admitted it directly, “Yeah, I arranged it.”
Levi and Daxon were in sheer astonishment.
It’s really Edmund!
Levi was overwhelmed by a turmoil of emotions.
Is it really Edmund? Is he the one controlling Chad? It can’t possibly be him, right? But… but he admitted it!
“You… You b*stard! How can you do something like that?” bellowed Daxon.
He did not expect Edmund to actually be the person behind all this and that he would admit it so outrightly.
Never in a million years would he have expected his son to be involved in this.
Could it be that Edmund’s the mastermind whom Levi was talking about all along?
Staring at Edmund, Levi asked, “Did you instruct Chad to go against me? Are you the one who organized the auction to oppose me?”
Hearing that, Edmund was stunned. “What? No! I have no idea about all that!”
He shook his head.
“Then, why did you send the Heavenly League to transport the spiritual energy crystals? You knew about this auction beforehand, right? Don’t tell me that this has nothing to do with you! You definitely know those people!” demanded Levi.
“I knew about the auction, but I don’t know who exactly was behind it. A mysterious person contacted me and said that all of the resources in this auction will be given to the Heavenly League. Initially, I did not believe them. That is until they transported the first batch of resources to me,” explained Edmund.
“Huh?”
Levi and Daxon exchanged a look.
This was not what they expected at all.
All of the resources in the auction will be given to the Heavenly League?
“I don’t care what their objective is. Since they are giving the resources to the Heavenly League without requiring us to do anything, why would I refuse? Besides, I’ve also asked them why they are doing so. Their answer was very simple—they wanted Erudia to have more Deities so that it can become stronger! That was all they wanted.”
Edmund’s answer stunned Levi and Daxon..
This…
Levi had previously guessed that the organization was from Erudia. It seemed like his guess was correct.
They gave the Heavenly League those resources so that Erudia could develop and create more Deities.
This could actually be deduced right from the start.
If they did not want Erudia to develop or to have any Deities, they would have stopped Chad a long time ago instead of letting him create so many Deities for Erudia.
This meant that the mysterious organization was only targeting Levi, and not anyone else. Furthermore, they wished that Erudia could become stronger.
Asking the Heavenly League to transport the resources only proved this guess further.
“This…”
A helpless look appeared on Daxon’s face.
He was now unable to discern between foe and friend.
This mysterious organization is obviously helping Erudia, so why is it targeting Levi like that? What kind of grudge do they have against Levi? I really can’t figure it out! Is it someone near us? But no one seems capable enough to do that…
As for Levi, he was even more confused.
Who could it be? D*mn it! I don’t recall doing anything that would piss someone off to this extent. Why can’t they just reveal themselves openly?
Initially, Levi wanted to ask Daxon if he knew about the heavenly lock, but it seemed like he should keep the question to himself now.
It was not because he did not trust Daxon, though. He was just afraid that others might find out that he had the magical medicine.
At that moment, the troop transporting the first batch of spiritual energy crystals from the island had returned.
There were almost half a million high-quality spiritual energy crystals in total.
Everyone’s eyes gleamed with anticipation when they saw the crystals. These resources could make Erudia so much more powerful.
Even Daxon’s breathing became faster. This is a lot of resources!
However, Levi chuckled and muttered, “It’s fine if you want Erudia to become more powerful, but since you’re targeting me, we are now enemies. You’d better pray that I don’t find out who you are. Because if I do, all hell’s going to break loose.”
Chapter 3076 Investigate From Another Angle
Levi could not control whether the resources were given to the Heavenly League or not. In fact, he even supported it.
However, since the other party was opposing him, he would retaliate.
Gazing at Levi’s retreating figure, Daxon and Edmund revealed a look of confusion.
I wonder who is it that’s targeting Levi? It doesn’t make sense how adamant they are about it! Besides, we know everyone in Erudia whom Levi had offended. So who else can it be?
Meanwhile, the island was in pandemonium.
Upon learning that the two hundred Deities whom they had sent out were killed, Idrae was in a fluster.
They were in utter disbelief.
Who the hell did it?
They suspected a lot of people except for Levi. Since his subordinates were all there and he had an alibi, it was impossible for him to be the culprit.
“This means that there are so many people who had their eyes on the magical medicine that the numbers far surpass our expectations. Since the people who stole the magical medicine can easily eliminate two hundred Deities from Xyperia, they are not to be trifled with.”
That was the only conclusion everyone reached.
Subsequently, Dr. Erebus and the rest were released as they were not suspects.
Initially, Dr. Erebus wanted to continue investigating the people in charge of the auction and see who they were underneath those masks. However, they received Levi’s instructions telling them to return.
The mysterious organization had thought about every single step in detail. This was obvious from how they had asked the Heavenly League to transport the resources.
They definitely knew that Levi would investigate who those masked men were.
Hence, even if he went to investigate it, he would not find anything.
Since it was pointless, there was no need to continue with the investigation.
Levi quickly summoned Dr. Erebus and the rest back and instructed Cyrus to keep a close eye on what was going on.
Soon, everyone returned.
When they saw Levi, they asked, “Did you get it?”
Levi waved the secret lock box in his hand.
“I’ll be counting on you, Bruno. Find someone who can open the heavenly lock.”
This was the main reason why Levi had asked them to return. He knew that Bruno was the only one who could help him with the heavenly lock.
“Don’t worry, Master Garrison! Leave everything to me.”
Bruno quickly went to carry out his orders.
Levi also instructed Weldon and three other people to follow him, so they could protect each other.
At the moment, Levi was filled with curiosity and fury toward the mysterious organization.
After all, even the fact that there was a force backing Zarain up had been found out by Levi. The mysterious organization was the only one whose identity still remained hidden.
“Everyone’s completely clueless about who they are. We don’t even know where to start investigating!” exclaimed Dr. Erebus.
Levi pursed his lips and commented, “Perhaps, we’ve been searching in the wrong direction.”
“Are you saying that we should investigate other people, Mr. Garrison?”
Levi nodded. “Why don’t we start with Chad’s background? He didn’t become the Miracle doctor out of nowhere, right? Since he adopted an alias, he’s definitely not someone simple. If we can find out his background, it might have a connection with the mysterious organization. They only ignored him previously because he did not reveal anything. Now that he has done that, they targeted me immediately.”
After Levi said that, everyone had a sudden revelation.
That’s true. We should investigate this matter from another angle.
“The number of my enemies just keeps piling on. After Evie is cured, I’ll definitely go knocking on each of their doors!” A cold glint flashed across Levi’s eyes.
Meanwhile, Smythe and Niel from Shield had just received news about the mysterious man’s disappearance.
That man was actually the messenger between them and the organization supporting them.
Unable to hold himself back anymore, he went to oppose Levi and ended up being killed.
“All two hundred Deities from Xyperia were killed and the magical medicine had been stolen. The envoy is definitely dead too!” exclaimed Smythe fearfully.
“Let’s inform them right away!” said Niel.
Even though that man was their envoy, they still had other methods to contact the force supporting them during times of emergency.
Now that the envoy had died, they immediately sent a message to that organization.
Chapter 3077 I Killed Those People
To them, it was a devastating piece of news—it was like the sky had collapsed.
Not only a whole crew of two hundred Deities had been killed, but the magical medicine had also been stolen.
What was even worse was the fact that no one knew who the culprit was.
Furthermore, this matter involved the most powerful force in the past and the most powerful force currently.
Both suffered great losses.
Soon, the organization supporting them issued a mission—to find out who the culprit was as soon as possible.
“Black Hawk, I need you to go and investigate this immediately! Be as quick as possible!” ordered Smythe.
All of Shield’s members were mobilized.
Although they might not be the strongest, they were top-notch in looking for information.
“Let’s find Levi.”
The first person that Black Hawk thought about was Levi.
Although they believed that Levi was not the culprit, they figured that it probably had something to do with him.
After all, it seemed that Levi would always be in the center whenever anything weird happened.
Hence, Black Hawk looked for Levi first.
When he confronted Levi, the latter was stunned.
And here I was planning to look for them, but they ended up coming to me instead.
“Have you heard about the magical medicine in Erudia being stolen?” asked Black Hawk.
“Yes.”
Levi nodded.
“Well, I’m here to find out the details from you,” explained Black Hawk.
Levi admitted it directly, “I’m the one who killed those people and stole the magical medicine. What about it?”
“What?”
Black Hawk almost fell onto the ground.
Did he just admit to it? Just like that? Isn’t he going to try and deny it at all?
They were there to gather more information, but they ended up finding the culprit instead.
“Are you still that powerful?” asked Black Hawk fearfully.
Before the spiritual energy revival, Levi was unparalleled. He could kill anyone with a single blow.
However, with so many Deities around now, it was impossible for Levi to do that anymore.
After all, he did not even have the slightest spiritual energy enveloping him.
Black Hawk frowned. So how can he be so powerful still?
“What do you think?”
Levi chuckled.
Only then did Black Hawk realize that Levi’s powers were unfathomable.
Just like the force supporting Zarain, the man’s powers still remained regardless of what era it was.
Both parties were the kind that would still dominate the world no matter the time.
“You know, I was actually on my way to look for you when you come knocking on my door. There’s a powerful force supporting Zarain, am I right? And the person I killed is a part of said force,” mentioned Levi.
Black Hawk nodded. “I only found out recently. Turns out that ever since Zarain was founded, there has always been a powerful existence supporting the country.”
Levi nodded. “Indeed, it’s just as I suspected. The organization supporting your country is so powerful that they have as many resources as me.”
“Yes. Their powers are unrivaled! Regardless of what the era is, they’ll still be in a league of their own. The core technology that Shield and Zarain have is provided by them. That’s why our technology is so much more advanced than the rest of the world.”
Black Hawk continued, “After the spiritual energy revival, Deities started appearing everywhere. Because of this, a lot of technologies had been made obsolete. However, Zarain’s technology can still oppose the Deities because I realized that a lot of equipment in Shield is actually activated by spiritual energy. That being said, I don’t really know the details. Smythe probably knows more about this than me.”
This was also similar to Levi’s guess.
Back when he saw the Sky Barrier that was used against Sacroria, he was left astonished by it.
As expected, it was activated by spiritual energy. Otherwise, there was no way it could be so powerful.
Black Hawk added, “The most terrifying fact is that the organization has always lived within the borders of Zarain. However, we’ve combed through every corner but still cannot find them.”
“You can’t find them at all?” asked Levi in surprise.
“No, we can’t. I’m guessing that there’s a reason why we can’t find them. And my guess is probably right.”
When Levi heard what Black Hawk said, he immediately asked, “What’s the reason?”
Chapter 3078 An Independent World
“It’s true that they are in Zarain, but it’s just that we cannot enter their territory. They probably have their own little place that only they could see and enter. Since they are so powerful to the point where they can give Shield a piece of equipment that can transform everything in the area, even protecting Zarain from being ravaged by the spiritual energy, it’s possible that they are living in an independent world separate from the rest.”
Levi thought that Black Hawk’s words sounded quite accurate.
So, the organization has always been inside Zarain. However, they must have used some equipment or special methods to transform the area they were in into an independent world, such that other people could not find them or enter their territory.
In other words, they’ve used some equipment to change the magnetic field, gravity, and other factors in the surrounding areas.
Even if someone were to find the place, they would still be lost because the magnetic fields and other elements have been changed. Even after walking around for days, they would, in reality, be pacing in the same spot. It would be impossible for outsiders to find the place.
Perhaps, just because these elements had been changed, if someone tried looking for the place, they would just be walking at the borders of this ‘independent world.’ They wouldn’t be able to find it, let alone enter it.
Since the organization has such amazing capabilities, it would be a piece of cake for them to conceal their world.
They’d probably created an illusion where if someone had crossed the region, they would only be walking around its borders without actually entering it in reality.
This was not just a theory—it was probably the reality. After all, creating an ‘independent world’ was simply too easy for them.
Levi thought about the Ecclesiastic Order and the Esoteric Guild of Erudia, which were unimaginably powerful existences.
It was too simple for them to create a territory that could not be trespassed or found by outsiders.
The theory of an independent world might sound ridiculous, but for people like Levi who knew the principles behind it, it was very simple.
They had been looking for the Ecclesiastic Order for ages, but they still could not find any clues.
After being reminded about this, Levi realized that the Ecclesiastic Order was probably living in their own independent world as well. Others would be unable to approach or find that territory.
Even if they had entered it unintentionally, they would be diverted out eventually.
“Oh, right! I heard that they could cure your daughter, but they won’t help. Even if you begged them, they will not lift a finger. After all, you’re not in a position to tempt them. They have whatever you have. In fact, they probably have everything that you don’t,” said Black Hawk.
When Levi heard that, he remained calm. Since the organization was so powerful, it was expected that they could cure the poison.
Luckily, Forlevia’s poison had already been half-cured. Once the heavenly lock was opened, her poison would be completely cured.
Otherwise, Levi would have lost his mind after receiving such news. In fact, he would contact this force and beg them to help just for the sake of his daughter.
But, because he already had an alternative way, he was much more composed then.
“Okay, I’ve probably figured out the rest too.”
Levi laughed.
Black Hawk was surprised once again. Huh… I guess Levi is still in a league above everyone else.
As for his secret, he still did not dare to reveal it.
It might become a trump card that could save his life, so he would only use it at the most critical moment.
Initially, he thought that it would take a long time to find the culprit. He never would have expected to find the culprit the moment he started investigating.
But, I don’t think I can just tell them that Levi is the culprit. Hmm… I think I have no choice but to keep delaying it for the time being.
As for Levi, the only thing giving him a headache now was not Forlevia’s poison, but the mastermind behind Chad.
Why are they targeting me?
Even Daxon was confused about this.
Who exactly is it? I can’t think of anyone who would go against Levi like that. They want Erudia to become stronger, but they are also targeting Levi. This doesn’t make sense.
Chapter 3079 Something To Do With Eragon
Could it be…
Daxon suddenly had some kind of reckoning, and he broke out in a cold sweat.
Then again, I don’t think so.
I doubt there’s any grudge between them and Levi…
He simply could not imagine the reason.
Edmund was equally puzzled. However, when he saw the expression on his father’s face, he could not help but ask, “Did you think of something?”
“Do you know that Eragon has been keeping a secret?” asked Daxon.
Stunned for a moment, Edmund eventually nodded. “Yes, I do! Each of their bloodlines protects a part of the secret. Once you combine all of them together, you will get the whole secret. Are you saying that the mysterious organization has something to do with the secret?”
He looked at his father in surprise.
“Yes. I can’t think of anyone else, so it must be them.”
Once he heard his father’s affirmative statement, Edmund became even more bewildered. “Although I don’t know what the secret is, what has it got to do with Levi?”
“You’re right. This is also what is puzzling me. Seems like I will need to investigate further,” said Daxon.
Meanwhile, Levi was still clueless about everything.
All he could do now was to send someone to investigate Chad.
However, there was good news from Bruno. He was on his way to find the person who could open the heavenly lock.
Levi believed that he would get some news very soon.
There was still a good chance of opening the heavenly lock.
Of course, Levi did not want to place all his hopes on the magical medicine.
He was still trying to look for other treatments.
Even though half of the poison in Forlevia had been expelled, it would be better if she was completely cured.
I can’t drag this on any longer.
Regardless, things had been quite challenging.
The reward Levi had offered was not working at all.
Due to the hindrance of various forces, nobody dared to have any dealings with him.
Whoever dared to deal with him would end up dead.
Then again, there were those that even Idrae and the other forces could not intimidate.
After all, they were not powerful enough to restrain the entire world.
Ospea, the country that was ranked the second-largest force after Xyperia was one such example.
It was a country full of legendary tales.
In the past when technology reigned supreme, no one took much notice of Ospea.
People were only familiar with their legends.
However, when the spiritual energy revival came about, Ospea felt that it was the new era that signified the revival of God like what had been told in their legends.
As such, instead of hiding, they welcomed the good fortune as Xyperia and Terrandya had done and received the spiritual energy revival with open arms.
Unexpectedly, they ended up with Deities appearing one after the other in the country.
That was how Ospea became the second most powerful force.
According to rumors, Ospea had at least thousands of Deities which outnumbered Terrandya.
Then again, there was another rumor that claimed that Ospea had more than ten thousand Deities.
Even now, Ospea still believed that the spiritual energy revival was a blessing from the heavens.
It was the reason that allowed the Deities in their legends to come alive.
It was true that the way they were brought about to the world was through a rather strange revival.
However, in reality, those strange revivals were of no difference to the vampires back then.
They were certainly not Gods.
The only difference lay in the body conditions. The immersion of the spiritual energy provided them with a certain energy that revived them.
In fact, Ospea was the first country that came up with the name “Deity.”
Now, that was how the entire world addressed the people that got affected by the spiritual energy revival.
As far as those from Ospea were concerned, what they experienced from the spiritual energy revival was a revival of God.
Because to them who had never seen much of the world, the Deities were in fact very god-like.
Nevertheless, they had also discovered that a huge amount of resources was needed to make Deities stronger and also to create more Deities.
All those efforts require tremendous resources.
To them, the resources were known as the treasures of God and the spiritual energy crystals were referred to as magic stones.
They firmly believed that all of those were bestowed by God.
Ospea was a country built up from legends, so everything was centered around God.
Apart from that, they believed that all the Deities of the world had to listen to them.
Chapter 3080 Center Of The Universe
Since those treasures of God belonged to Aspea, they figured they should be the ones distributing them, and that everyone should be obeying them.
Although they did not have much say in the previous era, in the current time of spiritual energy revival and the revival of Deities, Ospea should be the one with the final say.
After all, Ospea was the country of legends.
As such, all of the resources belonged to them, and all the Deities were to obey their commands.
Their first task was to convince Xyperia to follow their lead, to give Ospea their resources, and hand the control of the Deities to them.
Naturally, there was no way Xyperia would agree to those terms.
In fact, they even thought that Ospea was delusional and that every single one of Ospea’s citizens was crazy.
Without saying anything, Xyperia killed everyone who had come to them.
Xyperia then claimed that they would kill anyone from Ospea who dared to come again.
Being a truly powerful country, Xyperia had more Deities than anyone else.
Obviously, anyone would be scared.
Although people from Ospea were sick in their heads, they were frightened of dying too.
It was evident that Xyperia would not give a d*mn whether they were sick or not.
If anyone dared to provoke them, they would kill.
That was how they managed to keep Ospea in check.
Otherwise, Ospea would have launched attacks on the entire world.
It had always been their wish to manage all the resources.
Right from the start, Ospea felt that they were the center of the universe.
Everything and anything that was related to Deity belonged to them.
Even now, they were simply enduring in silence and trying to increase their powers so that they could surpass Xyperia.
Ospea wanted to take over the world and become the country that would rule over the Deities.
But for the time being, the whole of Ospea had been keeping a low profile.
They had yet to set out on their mission to control the resources and Deities of the entire world because their current goal was to catch up with Xyperia.
There was no way Ospea would take action if they could not surpass Xyperia.
Therefore, they were doing everything they could to increase their strengths and make more Deities.
Furthermore, they had even dug out the strange beings that had been in deep sleep for years and hoped to revive them with spiritual energy.
That was why Ospea refused to participate in any dispute as of now.
They were so low-key that there was no engagement from them.
Not even Xyperia, Terrandya, or Hawen could be as discreet as Ospea.
In fact, most people were not even aware of the second-largest force in the world.
On the other hand, Levi had heard about the operations going on in Ospea.
Levi viewed them as nothing but unworldly idiots.
However, they had come to look for him because they wanted to deal with the powerful Xyperia.
They had been trying to catch up with Xyperia.
Ospea realized that not only did the gap between the two countries fail to minimize, but the difference had become bigger.
With ample resources and the success of Idrae’s experiment, the production of Deities in Xyperia had increased.
At this rate, there was no way Ospea could ever catch up.
Furthermore, the fact that Ospea was experiencing a shortage of resources made it even worse.
After mulling over all their problems, they decided to set their sights on Levi.
After all, Levi was known for his vast resources.
He was their only chance to catch up with Xyperia.
In truth, they had thought long and hard about this matter but did not take any action.
It was only recently when they heard the secret that Idrae had produced tens of thousands of Deities for Xyperia that Ospea decided to look for Levi for help.
Idrae knew about it but certainly did not have the power to stop them.
Even if Xyperia sent out eight hundred Deities, it would not be enough to hold them back.
They were aware that short of employing full force, they and the rest of the world would not be able to stop Ospea.
Hence, even though Idrae knew about it, there was nothing they could do.
When those people from Ospea approached Levi, he was curious as well.
What are they doing here?
“Are you here for the reward?” asked Levi.
Perhaps, there’s hope for Forlevia?
Maybe I don’t even have to open the heavenly lock then.
