Chapter 3633 Gathering
"Mars,"
Called out the familiar voice outside of my abode.
I had woken up and had lunch and was thinking, about whether to practice or not, when he arrived and he was not alone.

I opened the door and saw thirty-seven people standing in front of me. Including the cultist, I had met.
Though, when I looked at them, I didn"t see Rynter or the woman who took that spatial crystal.
Their numbers surprised me; they were more than I had thought, he would be able to gather.
I looked at Mrenan, before focusing on the woman with the purple skin. She is a beautiful woman, with raven hair and forked hair, but it is those big blue eyes that are blue eyes that capture the attention the most.
She is Sky Sovereign, Orina. One of the two- Peak Sky-Sovereign chosen for the mission.
Though she isn"t the only Peak Sky-Sovereign here. There are two more, but Sky Sovereign Mrenen could defeat them single-handed with little effort.
They are cultists, their numbers are greater than ours, but we didn"t have any problem beating them, which is why they are wearing those hateful collars.
It seemed like our Sky Sovereigns had forced them to wear that.
"Everyone, please come in," I said, after a moment of silence. The woman hesitated, before entering inside.
I waved my hand and the furniture in the hall disappeared before a new one appeared. This one had seating arrangements for all the people.
"It is a good thing, I had removed the lake house and water and changed into more conventional design, I had prepared for an occasion such as this.
I couldn"t just show them, the one I use. Especially after the things, I had done here.
"The s.p.a.ce is here, really strong," said the woman as she entered inside.
"Thank you, Sky Sovereign Orina," I replied. I had weakened the s.p.a.ce, through the formation, but it is still stronger than the convectional abodes.
Soon, everybody sat and turned to me.
"Orin, here, had scoured the whole pod and found, there are six hives; four, after the two, we have destroyed. Four of them are sub-hives, while the fifth one is a great hive and that one is ma.s.sive," he said.
Sky Sovereign Orina took a black square stone and tapped on it. Immediately, the map appeared, showing the location of all the hives.
The great-hive is on the north side and it seemed to be over three times, bigger than any other horde.
"The three solutions worked perfectly in killing the critters; we hadn"t needed to fight, other than the queen," he added and looked at me.
"Good, I have finished crafting the batch, and it is stronger than the one, I had given it to you before," I said, and the solutions appeared on the table in front of me.
"What about the one that is dead with the great hive?" He asked. "I was about to start crafting it when you knocked," I said and an embarra.s.sed smile appeared on his face.
"These will be enough for now," he said, swiping away the solutions and placing the ring in front of me.
"It had the carca.s.s of the hive queen," he said.
I smiled and took it.
For a few seconds, there was silence, when suddenly. The energy released from Sky Sovereign Orina, covering me and three Sky Sovereigns; all three belong to Tor.
"Have you heard Irumerus nest?" asked Sky-Sovereign Orina and a big smile appeared on my face.
"It is a thing extremely important for three and me too when I reach the Peak of Sky Sovereign," I said. I won"t need it, since my core is far different from theirs, but I still want that thing.
It will be useful for my projects.
"So, it really exists?" she asked, with her breathing getting heavier. Even if I had been at her place, I would have felt the same; that thing is really important.
"It is the core of the whole pod; it is what powers, this amazing spatial construct," I replied and the eyes of three of them turned red.
"Though I would warn you from directly taking it. That thing is extremely sensitive and if the proper method isn"t used in harvesting; the spatial energies from it will crush us to powder," I replied, and they shuddered.
They seemed to know about it and seeing its properties; it is very easy to imagine what it would do if energies blasted out of it uncontrollably.
"I suppose you have the method?" she asked. "Yes, and I want an equal share of the harvest," I replied.
"Equal share? Are you joking? We will risk our life by fighting the hive queen and you want equal share?" asked the fellow human, glaring at me. Th1s chapter is updated by n)ovel/in/
"My contribution is equal. Try attacking the main-hive without my solutions and see, if you could kill the whole horde?" I asked back, and he shuddered.
They didn"t share, the information of the main horde, but they didn"t need to. I had seen the sub-hive and with the information from the books; I could guess how powerful it would be.
"We will swear it on the batch," said Sky Sovereign Orina and removed her batch.
The human Sky Sovereign glared, but took out his batch and so did Sky Sovereign Mrinen.
I also placed my batch, and we swore.
It is the most sure way, not the perfect way, but a sure way. With this, even if they didn"t give me an equal share, they would give me a share, and that is what I want.
I shared the method with them, along with some information.
"I and Mrinen will go and deal with three hives, while Pence, you stay here and keep eyes on the cultists," she said after has.h.i.+ng out a few things. She left with Sky Sovereign Mrinen.
Ten minutes after that; three rooms of my abode had been occupied by nine cultists, while the rest were in the other two abodes.
Less the abodes are better, and they needed to be stealthy too. We wouldn"t want to get discovered by the critters before we kill them.
Once again, I entered my core and took out the dead body of the hive queen. This one is not decapitated, but its core is shattered, and it is a clean job.
Looking at the traces of energies; it is Sky Sovereign Orina"s doing.
A few seconds pa.s.sed and once again, the huge roots came out. This time, the roots seemed even bigger than last time; likely received the benefits after consuming the hive queens.
A few minutes pa.s.sed, and the roots consumed the hive-queen clean, before burrowing back into the earth.
It didn"t take long for the tree to glow and the growth to start.
To my surprise, the growth is as far as the last time and when it finished. The tree had become taller and bigger.
Like last time, I didn"t wait for the growth energy and went to the library and began to study.
While talking with them, I realized that I had missed one thing. I want to find it, as it might affect our survival.
