Chapter Let"s hope you are right
The meeting then continued for quite a few hours. Tatiana was called in since she was the head of the management office in the System Sect. Rean then brought everyone to the System Sect and introduced the systems and other facilities which he allowed everyone to use. That was the main reason for it taking that long, as no one wanted to leave after seeing all of that.
Ultimately, Rean and Tatiana pa.s.sed their order related to the management of all the countries before they sent everyone away.
Meanwhile, back outside the Free Continent, the Rambram Sect elders became more and more impressed by the System Sect. Although they wouldn"t intervene in the compet.i.tion until it was over, there were already plans on the table to take everything they saw and use it in the Rambram Sect itself.
Folesve, the Rambram Sect Master, was one of the spectators who spent most of his time monitoring the System Sect.
Suddenly, one of his subordinates appeared by his side before pa.s.sing a message. "Sect Master, the Hamiria Clan"s deputy head wishes to see you. Also, the Drugo Organization and the Lakarta Sect"s elders are on their way here."
Folesve narrowed his eyes in response but nodded in the end. "So they already found out, huh? I guess that makes sense since some of the continents partic.i.p.ating in this compet.i.tion have contact with the other powers. It would be weird if they didn"t come after everything the System Sect had shown to everyone."
As mentioned before, the humanoid races were located on the southeast side of the center of the Realm of G.o.ds. The Rambram Sect, Hamiria Clan, Larkarta Sect, and Drugo Organization made up the four big powers of the humanoid race in this place. There were other smaller powers, but they couldn"t match up to these four. "Alright, wait for the other two to arrive and bring them to me."
A few hours later, three guys were brought to the room where Folosve was monitoring the compet.i.tion. "Sorry for disturbing you, Folesve."
Folesve waved his hand, not in the mood for courtesies. "I know why you came, Kifo, Zansgian, Vanos. However, I won"t allow anyone to meddle with the compet.i.tion before it"s over. Am I clear?"
Surprisingly, Kifo, who was the deputy head of the Himaria Clan, didn"t like hearing that. "Are you sure? I believe both the spirits and the demon beasts will eventually find out. So far, they think this Free Continent compet.i.tion isn"t anything worth their attention. However, how long will that last? What if they infiltrate the Free Continent and take those twins and that Sea Chilling Spirit away?"
Zansgian also added, "He"s right. Besides, it"s not only the demon beasts and spirits we should be careful about. There"s also that fourth power that controls the northeast of the center of the Realm of G.o.ds. Usually, they wouldn"t mind anything the other three powers do. However, you know what they could do if they found out that we obtained this system. It could hugely shift the balance of power."
In the past, Philip told the twins about the four races that controlled the center of the Realm of G.o.ds. The southeast was in the hands of the humanoid races, which was exactly where the twins were at the moment. Southwest went to the spirits, while northwest went to the demon beasts. However, Philip didn"t know who was in charge of the northeast side.
Folesve snorted in response after hearing the guy"s words. "Hmph! Do you think I didn"t account for that? The moment I noticed the potential of those formations, I immediately ordered the Formation Masters in my sect to reinforce the formations protecting the Free Continent. I want to see how anyone will get inside without me noticing. Besides, if those guys from the northeast really do come, the demon beasts and spirits will immediately come out and support us. Sure, they may be the strongest, but they can"t deal with all three of us at the same time."
"If you want, you can stay and watch the compet.i.tion with me. I"ll treat you well during this time. It"s just a measly two hundred years, after all. Such a time means nothing to us. It"s also a great opportunity to check out just how far that communication system of theirs can go."
"What if they lose at the start of the regional wars?" Vanos asked. "In that case, would you allow us to go and take those formations? You should know very well that you can"t monopolize that system. The four of us have to take it together and implement it in our own territories as fast as possible."
Folesve shook his head, saying, "If I could, I would obviously monopolize it. Unfortunately, I know that it would only cause discord in our alliance. We already have enough trouble with the three other powers, so I won"t cause even more. Of course, we"ll take priority in the study and implementation of the system communication in our own territory. You don"t have a problem with that, right?"
Kifo, Zangias, and Vanos nodded, satisfied. "Absolutely not.
Folesve continued, "As for the Jamai Sect"s case, if they really lose at the start of the Regional Wars, then I will send a few members to recover them."
Surprisingly, Vanos was worried about something else. "I believe Hilanshi, or so I think is his name, is the guy overseeing the Walfure Region, right? We can"t allow the twins nor the high-ranking members of that System Sect to die. you should have Hilanshi watch over them and immediately intervene if he sees that they"ll be killed."
Folesve shook his head, though. "That won"t happen. If they die, they die. It"s not like we can"t extract the information from them after that," he mentioned. "Then again, you should pay close attention to this war. With their commanding abilities, especially that black-haired brat, I find it very hard for death to come their way."
Those three could only agree. "Let"s hope you"re right."
