BXBX NOVEL Chapter 856 Die!
Chapter 856 Die!
Ultimately, they concluded that it was entirely possible. In fact, they even came up with multiple different solutions. Lex\'s willingness to pay obscene amounts of money for the best possible solution made life much easier.
The reason they were currently stumped… was that they could not conclude in finality which option was the best for Lex. After all, with multiple options available, they should opt for the best one. But that was too difficult to decide because the situation was too uncertain.
The only thing they could say for certain was that the most powerful force at their disposal was not their cultivation, but their money.
"I think I\'ll go with the addition of the Blink module, and use that in conjunction with Kelvaha Specter talisman," Lex finally said, not taking any risk. This was the best possible solution he could think of.
If the situation were not so critical, Lex would definitely have felt the pinch since the Kalvaha Specter talisman was a single use item that cost him approximately 33 billion MP! But right now the only reason Lex hesitated was not because it was expensive, but because it might not be the best solution. After all, MP could be earned again, but once his workers died there was nothing more that could be done.
"Very good, I\'ll go prepare everything. As I said beforehand, it will take a few hours to arrange everything."
"I\'ll wait here. You can go and prepare."
For this payment Lex had no time to arrange things, so he was forced to pay using one of the missiles he collected from Pelvailins hoard. But instead of being considered a full payment, due to Lex\'s high membership level, the emporium would hold onto the missile for five days.
In case Lex was able to solve everything, and had time to spare, he would come back and pay the emporium properly and take the missile back. They were extremely valuable, after all. It was not easy to find weapons that could injure immortals and can be used by anyone. If he could not make it, then it hardly mattered.
The Blink module was something that could be added to the Silent Wanderer, though it was not originally designed to support such consumption so it would require additional power. That was not an issue for Lex as he could just procure many power sources from the Inn and use them to power the module.
The Blink Module would allow the Silent Wanderer to skip over large distances, at least while space was still stable. While this would not get them all the way to BGY-987, it should cut down the travel time at least.
Then, finally, it would be time for the Kelvaha Specter talisman. The talisman was created using important body parts of the Kelvaha Specter, an immortal entity that traveled between realms using its own body.
Whether it was space, the void, or anything else, none of it affected the specter as it did not interact with the physical plane! Instead, the specter traveled in the soul plane! Using the talisman would allow the Silent Wanderer to do the same for a period of time.
That did not mean they could automatically use the Blink module - the various planes functioned differently, so it was not so simple to do such a thing. Instead, traveling through the soul plane was just inherently faster.
If everything went according to plan, he could reach the planet in just two days!
The only thing he could not understand was… the prophecy he received just a few days ago. He could already guess that if he did not intervene, his regret might have to do with losing his workers. But what did any of this have to do with a blade?
Was he right to recover completely during this time? Should he have been mastering sword intent instead? This was an answer he would just have to wait for.
*****
In the dark room watching the projection, many of the observers were actually having a great time. It did not matter to them how many demons died, for the demons were not their subordinates. Nor had they contributed to this specific mission in any way, so they had no vested interest either.
Instead, they were treating it like a grand show. Who could have believed that a measly 1000 Foundation realm cultivators, who were human to boot, could provide this much entertainment? They were still fighting, and now even the Marzu were on their way.
"If the humans destroy this monument, will it affect your plan?" someone asked the devil.
"Not really. We\'re building more than one of these anyway. The point is not to teleport these 1000 humans into the void, but the rescue party. I estimate that the rescue party will take at least a week to arrive. My monuments will be operable in just four more days. As soon as they land, I\'ll activate them. This way, the whole show will be teleported into the Void. I\'m very interested to see how the Midnight Inn will react then? I have a suspicion that if push comes to shove, they can teleport their workers out even from within the void. This is a good way of finding out."
"From within the void? Impossible…"
While the conversation was going on, the zealot looked at everyone with a mocking look. A week? Four days?
His companions were almost there. Once they reached, they would destroy the whole damn planet! He\'d like to see how everyone would react then. Would the accursed devil still be so calm? Would the Midnight Inn suffer?
Waves of excitement coursed through his mind as he imagined everyone\'s mournful faces! For desecrating the honor of Ra, they should all die!
