After the three of them left, Zeus gestured for Nike to take a seat opposite to him.


"You have one job, Nike. I told you. As long as your projection stays in the temple, everything would be fine. They couldn"t see into the temple from here, because their players cannot enter.


As long as it stayed like that, no matter how fishy things we did are, they wouldn"t be able to do anything.


But now, look at the situation, they not only knew this, but we also have a pay a price for that and on top of that, we cannot interfere in this anymore.


They would be closely monitoring you now, as they have enough reason to do so. You cannot go back there, even the temples are off-limits for your projection."


"My Lord, I just want one more chance to go there. After that, I will completely stop."


"Why?"


"That…" Nike didn"t know how to answer this question. She herself knew how petty her behavior and actions come off as, but she never felt guilty or embarra.s.sed about it when she did them, as for telling them to someone else, much less Zeus, it is impossible. That would be too much for her pride.


"If you can"t even say what it is for, they get lost from here. Don"t do anything stupid. That Karthikeya is a man of his word. If he saw this happen one more time, he would really throw the spear and not just your residence planet, he would blow up your entire solar system."


"Yes, My Lord."


With that, she bowed in respect and left from that place. After returning to her place, she started smashing everything in her sight.


Suddenly, she hated every G.o.d that is in this game. First, that gambler comes here to show off with his subordinate, who managed to injure her cleanly, then Sam and Arkiv destroyed her temple and these three G.o.ds are now hindering her from the revenge she sought desperately.


But she cannot do anything no matter how p.i.s.sed she is. That is her position now and it seems like it could remain that way.


Meanwhile, back in Nike Planet.


Sam and Arkiv are currently in the hovercar as they traveled over a bunch of trees.


"This thing is quite good. Sam why wouldn"t you sell the really good things you have. That harbinger now this thing, you wouldn"t sell them to normal people, why?"


"They are made for personal use. I will sell them when I no longer need them. Anyway, I have enough money. Even the urge to expand the business is not enough to make me sell these."


"At least sell me one will you?"


"You cannot ride this. Only a wind element user can ride this and anyway, I cannot make too many energy cells if I make these things on large scale."


While they are speaking, Sam suddenly turned the hovercar and almost flipped it in the process.


A bird-type beast just launched themselves from the trees below, ambushing them.


This is not the first time and they are sure this will not be the last time.


Sam controlled the car and started clashing with this bird-type beast.


After a battle and cutting the wings off of the beast, they are free once again.


They are currently on the way to the large temple which is in the center of the planet. After treating both Grace and Silva, they are done there and started their journey immediately. It is almost one month since they came here and there are still eleven months. But they cannot afford to wait too much.


Because the journey turned out to be longer than they thought.


They cannot go to the next city directly, they have to travel on a specific route and that is to go to the temple in the center of Silva city and then going to the next city from that temple.


All six routes for the six cities are connected at that temple.


And the worst part is that the journey will take around a month to forty days for a Pre-transcendent stage Feathered to go from Silva city to the temple and more or the less the same amount of time is required for them to go to any of the next cities from that temple.


When Sam heard this, the first thought is that he has the hovercar and he could cut the journey in half, but his expectations are let down. The one-month to forty-day journey is only valid when they are unhindered, but the whole path is completely infested with a lot of beasts that attack them constantly.


So, Sam estimated that even in the hovercar the journey would still be more than a month with the beast attacks and as the time pa.s.sed, they are extremely sure of that.


This is just the first day and they already encountered around four waves of attacks.


"This is going to be one annoying journey."


"Yes it is."


They exchanged and covered a decent distance before another beast came.


The journey went on like this for more than a month before they could even get a glimpse of the large temple.


When they saw it from afar, Sam and Arkiv felt like they saw an oasis in a desert.


But this last piece of journey took them four more days because of the number of the beasts they had to encounter.


Even though the majority are still the Pre-transcendent, here the transcendent are the true bosses and it is hard for them to escape from them.


They had to stop at a spot for hours before they could leave and sometimes they had to take a large detour which would waste half a day of the journey.


After wasting most of their time, they finally landed on the premises of the temple.


Even though it is called a temple, in reality, it is as big as a small town.


There are so many structures, sculptures, small houses that seemed to be the temporary residences of the visitors, and some medium-sized residences which are filled with various sculptures of Nike.


At this point, this is no longer a temple. It is almost like a place to satisfy Nike"s Ego and vanity.


There are hundreds of her statues in here.


"d.a.m.n, this woman focuses more on vanity than me. At least I only buy things and eat well. But look at her? The sculptures, murals those plaques." Sam said as he observed the surroundings


"I wonder how it feels to be worshipped like this. Is that a good feeling?" Arkiv asked from the side.


"How would I know?"


"You are also revered in your city and all of the western continent. They are grateful to you because you changed thousands of lives. I don"t think there is much difference."


"Being revered and being worshiped are completely different things."


"Whatever, they look the same to me and I am sure millions of people agree with me."


Sam didn"t reply and just looked around the surroundings.


"What are we doing here? Let us go. It is a long journey after all." Arkiv called out noticing that Sam is silent."


"It is a long journey, but I think we should take advantage since we visited this place first, don"t you think so?"


Arkiv"s eyes lit up and said.


"What are we going to do?"


"Let"s use the opportunity to place some things here, so that he can have an advantage when we come here next time.


The way I see it, the last battle will be here."


Arkiv grew excited.


He didn"t think too much about this.


But the battle would be really intense and balanced as the other players are no pushovers. The battle would definitely be neck and neck as there are only six entries into the palace this time.


They would fight tooth and nail to get their hands on those six weapon fragments.


This is not going to be easy at all.


It would really be wasteful of them to not take advantage of this chance.


Sam has many toys that he could use in a place where many things could be hidden.


So, for the next few days, Sam and Arkiv worked together with the help of the Wights, Ghouls and the rest to set all kinds of different traps in the temple.


They didn"t let a single place go. Every area is full of grenades, formations, spike shooters, cannons, and many more things.


After spending two weeks doing so, there are only ten days left in the third month.


Now, they have to decide on which route to take.


Even though he got some information from the Silva city priestess, he has to consider many things before he goes to a city.


It would have been better if it was a place where Arman is not present. In that way, they don"t have to go to another city.


But they couldn"t find out which person is in which city.


After some time they decided on one city due to the distance it took was lesser than the others and started their journey.
