The next day, Alex and Aria started searching for treasures in Rhoa's territory. However, they stopped at the main tower that day, watching how Rhoas activated the tower.
It piqued his interest and was certainly useful to know how it worked. When they arrived at the main tower, Alex and Aria looked at Rhoas, who was getting ready.
"Actually, we can easily activate the Tower from our castle. There is a rune that transmits the signal from the throne room to this tower. We use this giant tower as our main tower, and the height makes it possible to transmit the signal from this tower to all the towers around the world."
"I see. What will happen when we activate all those towers?" Alex asked.
"We can control it in the ziggurat. If you notice, there are mory crystals all around the tower, giving us live footage of what happened near it. After we see our target, we will shoot him off by channeling our own energy as the activation. And if we connect two towers in the area, we can form a barrier that stretches so far."
"It is possible to create a barrier for a whole world, right?" Alex found that the idea was similar to the barrier in his mind, but he asked again to confirm his guess.
"It's part of it. Actually, we have used it to protect our spaceship. Unfortunately, due to the fact that we don't have enough power to create a Rank 9 Rune, we still have no qualification to fight against God Rank Expert out there. Of course, as long as we have enough resources, we will imdiately carry the research." Rhoas's expression turned serious, indirectly saying that he wouldn't be a useless subordinate.
"That's good." Alex thought for a mont. "Well, I have a certain thing in mind. We actually have a Teleportation Formation that can transfer us to nearby planets, but I know that you have a Teleportation Stone. I am wondering whether I should use it or replace it with yours."
"As much as I want to brag about our Teleportation Rune that can teleport you farther than a Teleportation Array, I am not very sure about this. I need to do so research and trials to see the result."
Alex nodded. "Alright, then. Let's light it up."
Rhoas then raised his scepter. The blue gem on top of the scepter slowly glowed.
Aria also wanted to witness this phenonon and opened her eyes, finding that the blue runes that were supposed to be inside the mountain shone from the outside.
Alex could see that the Spiritual Energy rushed from the bottom and shot toward the sky. Although he couldn't see it from where it was coming, which was the Spirit Crystal Mine, he was satisfied to witness the blue light shooting to the sky.
"We have almost a thousand towers all over the world, and I believe you can see one right over there…" Rhoas turned around and pointed his finger toward a certain direction.
Suddenly, another blue light rose to the sky even though they couldn't see the real body.
"This is beautiful," Aria exclaid in amazent.
"But dangerous." Alex shrugged, noticing that the power emitted from the tower was actually closed to that of Divine Energy.
He also noticed that more and more runes started to appear and covered the entire mountain. Those runes ford a giant barrier to protect the tower.
"What will happen if I destroy this tower? Will the other towers get destroyed or disconnected?"
"Nothing will happen. As long as we manage to light up the entire tower system, losing one won't be that big of a deal."
"That's good then." Alex nodded. "This needs a huge amount of resources, eh."
"Yes. That's why we usually create a tower next to a mine or on top of a mine. The best will be when there is a natural terrain that can support it like the mountain. The cost will be far lower…I am not sure, but I believe it's around fifty percent off or sothing."
"Oh."
"Would you like to see a Teleportation Stone?"
"Sure."
Rhoas then used his Teleportation Rune.
Aria looked at the blue shine in confusion. This was her first ti seeing a rune instead of an array, so she didn't know what would happen to her.
Regardless, they arrived at a plain a few seconds later. She found a floating stone that held a ridiculous amount of power.
"This is our Teleportation Rune. According to Atlas, my king has seen the Teleportation Stone, correct?"
"Yes."
"There is actually a difference between the one you have seen and this one. For example, if we want to get to the other side of this planet, we need to find another stone that is around the middle, so we can teleport there before doing the sa thing to reach the other side. In other words, the stone doesn't have enough power to teleport that long.
"However, this one has been improved several tis, and we have found a way to connect the two sides. Instead of going to the middle area first, we can imdiately reach the other side. Of course, it still needs the middle stone, but you do not need to go there anymore."
Alex pondered for a mont and understood the invention. "If teleporting to another planet is possible, then we can set up a giant formation that can teleport us to nearby planets without wasting ti to transit to another world."
"Yes. That's what we will be working for after getting to the new place." Rhoas nodded.
Alex found this intriguing. Of course, it would be good for traffic, but there was one huge problem with this. If the enemies used this to infiltrate their world, no one would know. Hence, he believed there shouldn't be a transmission to Eulja, or only those from Eulja knew about it.
When he was about to say sothing, the Teleportation Stone shone as if soone was about to teleport to them.
The blue light slowly ford, and five figures appeared.
"Atlas, Zekhram, Losagh, Igor, Steforus. What all of you are doing here?"
"Nothing. We have just wanted to see the real person." Losagh waved his hand. His appearance looked like Zekhram, but his muscle was bulkier than him, making it easier to differentiate.
Steforus turned out to be not a lion-like Igor. Instead, he was a Leopard.
After the two saw Alex's appearance, they had a complicated emotion. Losagh found his blade first while Steforus noticed the hidden power from Alex.
"That sword…" Losagh pointed his finger before asking politely. "It has contained sothing powerful. I have seen a Divine Weapon, but this one is different…There is soone living inside that sword."
Losagh seed to have found sothing about Eve's existence, so Eve instantly asked. 'Master, what should I do?'
'Don't bother with it. It's better to stay hidden for a while.' Alex answered with a thought transmission before replying to Losagh. "Nice to et you. As you know that every weapon has a consciousness. You can classify this one as a special one that has a strong consciousness."
"Oh! I apologize for my rude remark. I was so entranced earlier." Losagh then kneeled on one knee and said, "Losagh greets the king. It's my honor to serve under your na."
"Zekhram greets your majesty."
"Steforus greets my king." Steforus also kneeled, but he seed to have sothing to say to Alex.
"You want to say sothing?" Alex noticed his intention too and asked.
"If possible, I would like to know if my king is a God Rank Expert or not. I have noticed sothing weird from your energy and spirit, so I feel like you are not a Martial Saint but above."
Alex nodded, not denying it.
"No wonder. I feel like even if my king has the sa cultivation as , I won't be able to hold you for a few rounds." He sighed.
Alex then helped both of them up and said, "I have my responsibility as well. If I am not strong, how can I protect my people?"
The two smiled and took a step back.
"So, what are you doing here?" Alex asked.
"We would like to pledge our allegiance first, which we have accomplished. Next, we want to show you our progress." Losagh said before turning to Steforus.
"The beastman has started evacuating from the continent, heading straight to either this continent or the other one. However, I have controlled the way, so around eighty percent of them are coming here. This way, this place will soon be flocked by humans from another world.
"As for our elites, so of them are fighting, and so are disguising as a local to ensure the agreent is upheld. This can also reduce our loss, so this is the ideal situation for us. And we would like to employ the sa strategy to the people here. They will probably need around three months to reach this continent, so with the population here, they won't easily dare to fight us.
"And I want to request the use of the tower right now to help my people from getting slaughtered by those humans. After around nine months in, I believe we can start evacuating the people to the Dwarven territory to board the ship.
"As soon as the evacuation is complete, several checks and the ti limit is over, we will leave the world. Lastly, I want to know whether your majesty will co with us or not."
"Thank you for the report. Regarding the tower, I believe you should talk about it with Atlas and Rhoas. As for the situation, I don't have a problem with you. I will probably search around the continent to see if I can find sothing before training inside a mine. I will probably use the last three months to enjoy my ti here." Alex nodded.
"In that case, we can proceed according to the plan." Steforus nodded and looked back at Losagh.
"I have said all the things I need to say. If possible, I would like to request to leave imdiately, so we can start it as soon as possible."
Alex nodded. "Sure."
"I will go with you then," Atlas said to Steforus since he could help him manage the tower.
"I appreciate it." Steforus agreed, and they soon disappeared.
As for Losagh, he tugged Zekhram's hand, asking him to say sothing, so the atmosphere didn't turn awkward.
Alex only smiled and greeted him. "It's nice to see you again."
"No, no. This is our pleasure. If not because of your majesty, we wouldn't have the chance to return to this place again. Unfortunately, not long after this, we will need to vacate our ho." Zekhram let out a long sigh before correcting his words. "Of course, we are overjoyed because we can stay under your majesty."
Alex scratched the back of his head.
Losagh and Zekhram looked at each other and nodded. "If possible, we would like to start doing the dismbering process of the house and other things to gather all the tals we can use in the future."
"Sure. Do whatever you want."
After that, the two then left, leaving Igor and Rhoas in the area.
"If there is nothing else, Aria and I will go around the continent to search for sothing. Do you mind if I do that?" Alex asked.
"No, not at all." Rhoas hurriedly replied and handed him a token. "This is my token. For the ti being, the subjects have yet to know about your status, so if you show them this token, it is the sa as seeing the king. This will give you a smooth process for all things."
Alex grabbed the token and thanked him.
"I don't have anything as well. I hope my king can enjoy his stay in this world." Igor bowed his head politely, followed by Rhoas.
Alex then walked to Aria before nodding his head, signaling it was the ti to go.
"Then, see you later." Alex waved his hand as they disappeared from the field.
