“We’re about ready to begin, Elder Bowa. The supervisors are getting ready to send in the first batches now.”
Elder Bowa nodded, still looking off into the distance. But, it was at that very mont, that everything changed.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The roof began to violently shake, quaking beneath the feet of Elder Bowa and his three attendants.
The auction house violently reacted, shaking to its core. If it wasn’t for the fact that the lower floors were etched into the asteroid itself, the entire base would have collapsed!
Elder Bowa’s eyes widened. ‘She was actually right?!’
“Send communications now! Inform all elders to teleport to the auction house imdiately!” Elder Bowa’s voice roared.
It should only take an instant for them to get here. As the twins inford Dyon previously, each master key array had the ability to deploy 10 relay stations for quick teleportation to it. This extended what should have been 30 arrays to 300. Considering this was the case, how could they not have the ability to quickly make it from Planet Cathedral to their hidden bases?
The attendants quickly scrambled to find their orders.
“Show yourself, coward!” Elder Bowa’s old eyes continuously scanned the surroundings, but no matter how much he tried, he couldn’t find anyone. Even if he wasn’t among those who had to cripple their souls for the sick coverup of their evil deeds, it didn’t an his soul had broken into the celestial level…
He couldn’t find Dyon because he didn’t have divine sense! The best part for Dyon was that even if he did, it would still be very difficult.
The roof trembled, cracking and folding in on itself.
At that mont, a sudden realization ca over Elder Bowa. Is he trying to destroy the array?
Although he thought this, a sudden calm overca him. If Dyon destroyed the array, it was true that the elders wouldn’t be able to teleport here, but it was also true that neither would the soul slaves. At worst case, they could just do the auction at a later date in a less prepared location. After all, they had 21 other bases.
This way, not only would the soul slaves be safe and their investnts would be protected, but this perpetrator would have nowhere to run. Obviously, since this person was hiding himself, he was no match for Elder Bowa, or else why would he hide?
If Dyon could hear Elder Bowa’s thoughts right now, he’d start laughing uproariously. This was exactly what he wanted.
If he allowed the cathedral to find out that he was transferring the array to a safer location, Elder Bowa might try to trigger the fail safes before Dyon was ready. If that happened, Dyon would have caused the death of millions…. How would he live with himself after that?
However, if the elder thought that Dyon was destroying the array, he’d beco lax, giving Dyon room to deliver him a fatal blow.
After speaking to the sisters, Dyon got an even clearer picture of how the Soul Market functioned. He was also able to examine those two teenage girls that the twins saved closely. At first, he didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary… until his master finally woke up!
With her explanations, Dyon nearly burst into a new level of anger. These bastards actually placed suicide arrays within these poor soul slaves. The mont anything went wrong, they’d be able to remotely cause their death. If it hadn’t been for Dyon’s master awaking due to the ti for the mystical world opening approaching, Dyon would have made one of the biggest mistakes of his life.
Dyon’s fists continued to rain down on the asteroid, digging deep into the ground in a straight line toward the origin crystal.
“E – Elder,” One of the attendants stuttered, completing pale with fright. “We can’t contact the elders. None of the ssages we send are going through!”
Elder Bowa’s complacent expression suddenly froze. What the hell did that an? Was this planned? Was this plan more intricate than what they once thought?
His eyes once again desperately searched the landscape, but he couldn’t see anything other than continuously shattering rock and a strongly gleaming formation.
It was at that mont he relaxed again. He suddenly rembered, this was a legendary planet level formation! How could soone scared to face him possibly destroy it? It was also possible that one of the infrequent solar flares that passed through the solar system was what was interfering with the communication and not so well thought out plan.
At this point, if Dyon knew Elder Bowa’s thoughts, he’d be cursing in his mind for facing up against such a stupid opponent. Solar flares? Really? That was his explanation? Was he just overconfident or stupid?
Either way, this worked perfectly for Dyon. Although he stood behind his assessnt that the choice of base was far too stupid, it still wasn’t easy for him to cut through properly. The auction house was placed into a cut out portion of the asteroid, which ant that the origin core was buried sowhere within it as well.
The thing was that Dyon wasn’t the one searching for it, his only job was to make noise. As for who would?
“Found it!” The hamster twins squeaked excitedly, scurrying to Dyon’s side and teleporting into the Demon Sage Tower.
At that mont, Dyon grinned, erupting into his Demon Emperor’s Will, Act one, Stage two.
By the ti Elder Bowa reacted to the oppressive aura, it was already over. The roof completely shattered, revealing the auction house below littered with corpses caused by the falling rubble.
