Chapter 1016 - Meeting The World’s Will
"Am I too ruthless?" Alex questioned himself. He began doubting himself as he thought that the life of the people was just something that he wouldn\'t care about as long as he didn\'t know personally.
Of course, it was weird to save someone that might lead to an additional problem, but if he saved them right now, there shouldn\'t be someone who could decipher what he did. In other words, no one actually knew it was him.
It was risk-free and the help was as simple as waving his hand.
What made him think this way was when he saw many humans were massacred without being able to do anything. Their unwilling expressions, screams, and despair touched Alex\'s heart.
He had been avoiding helping strangers because there would be a problem following them right behind. And one person or a small group couldn\'t be compared to tens of thousands of humans.
That was his reason to start doubting his own heart.
This feeling…Did it come as a fellow human? Or did it come from his doubt?
He wondered if the ones running away from this place were monsters while the attackers were humans, would he help them?
He let out a long sigh and waved his hand. "Haiz…It seems I am still too soft."
The Spiritual Energy formed a Teleportation Array beneath the people who were trying to run away. He sent them all a bit farther away from this place. At the very least, the wolves wouldn\'t be able to reach them in a day or so.
At the same time, he made another one to teleport the soldiers to the same place as where he sent the people.
The fight instantly ended because there wasn\'t a single human to kill anymore.
Seeing this, Alex sighed again. "I will only do it at this level. I won\'t kill the wolves because they also haven\'t done anything wrong. Besides, this is also the payment for the information of the new technique."
Instead of helping the humans fight these wolves, he chose to stop the fight by sending the human away like what they were trying to do.
After that, he decided to fly away until he reached the border and found the Rawak Kingdom near it.
As he expected, there was a portal there. It was situated near the kingdom like before.
He could see monsters taking over the kingdom, building their nest inside there. It wasn\'t a worm anymore, but more like ogres, scorpions and other beings.
"Now that I see this, I have a question. What is the process of evolution?"
[I know what you want to ask. First of all, there are three steps for completing an evolution. The first step will be the increase of Spiritual Energy on the planet. This will make people get stronger faster for a period of time.]
[Just like a tsunami, where the water in the shore got pulled back to the ocean, and you can see fishes on the sand, it would then come back with that tall wave. This advantage would soon get hit by the appearance of portals, leading to other worlds.]
[Of course, they are Lower Worlds as well, but it doesn\'t mean their power level is the same. I mean, the extent of the lower world is Martial Grandmaster to be honest. And if you remember Stina\'s World, that world is a half Upper World.]
[Yes. That is the benefit of getting influenced by a world that was undergoing its transformation. The portal didn\'t link only both worlds, but it also sent its powerful Spiritual Energy to the other worlds, allowing them to grow as well.]
[This will take time, and the aforementioned world won\'t have the opportunity to pass the Upper World because it relies on the real Upper World. Due to that, there are no other world portals appearing in that world.]
[Well, it\'s a bit complicated to be explained in one go, but if I put it in a simple way, you get stronger, new enemies, and get stronger again.]
"So, it won\'t happen again? I mean, there won\'t be any strange phenomenon again other than the natural disasters?"
[Yes. Spiritual Energy will only get richer and richer. All the people in this place will grow stronger and stronger, following the progress of this planet.]
"Now that I think about it, all Upper Worlds are quite big, no?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows.
[Yes. As I said, disturbances will be everywhere. Just like Earth Disturbance can create a planet, this type of disturbance is enough to create rocks and other materials, making the world larger. And due to that, it will cause a huge Earthquake along with the others.]
"So, this planet will become significantly larger?"
[Exactly.]
"I have never seen one during from Earth." Alex furrowed his eyebrows.
[This comes only every one million years. We can find this because we have explored more than ten thousand planets around us alone. There are so many planets out there, so you can expect to find one or two more.]
"I see." Alex sighed. "What should I do with the portal? Just let it be?"
[This is a natural process, so it\'s better not to do anything.]
"Alright then. I will take one more day to confirm this planet and call the World\'s Will with my strength." Alex nodded with a serious expression.
It wasn\'t possible to descend without alarming the beasts, so he decided to return to his room, forgetting that he had passed the night time because he was occupied by the books earlier.
He found Mileda waiting for him until she fell asleep. Since he didn\'t know about the structure of this building, specifically her room, he decided to pick her up and lay her on the bed while he took his time, watching the suns.
"Light and Dark Territories. I am sure that these two will soon come together because they won\'t be able to withstand those who come from other worlds. From the two portals we have found, those two worlds seem to be higher in terms of cultivation level. Probably Martial Master is the norm while those who are so talented can reach Martial Grandmaster.
"Of course, they can\'t come to this place from the beginning, but they will. If this world can\'t contain them, they will lose and probably get enslaved by them. I wonder if I should plant my Gacha System to the other planets as well?" Alex just thought something brilliant. If he could get the surrounding worlds too, he would be making more money.
[I don\'t think so. It\'s better to only plant it on this planet. Of course, it won\'t make the other worlds difficult, turning them to be a slave of the people from this world. Instead, the World\'s Will will recognize all inhabitants no matter if they were not local and distributed the Gacha System. In other words, as long as they come here once, they are eligible to use it. It will only be active in this world of course.]
"I see. That\'s better. This will give a balance between all worlds. I don\'t care whoever comes in the top since I might have retracted the Gacha System from this planet by that time." Alex smiled and closed his eyes, cultivating to pass the time.
…
The next day, Alex opened his eyes when he noticed Mileda had woken up.
"Hmm?" She looked lost as she felt something different from last night\'s sleep, considering she wasn\'t on her usual bed. Looking around, she saw someone\'s back and immediately raised her guard.
Leaping from the bed, Mileda tried to see who it was but then realized she actually fell asleep in Alex\'s room. There was only one person who would be here.
"I…I…" She wanted to explain, but Alex simply waved his hand, telling her that it was fine.
"From what I can see, especially the one with your so-called blue spiral or something, something big will happen. I need more information to see whether my prediction is right or not. You can prepare yourself first and meet me in one hour." Alex said with a flat tone.
She then looked down after noticing his words. Fixing her sloppy clothes, Mileda quickly left the room. "I am sorry. Let me fix myself up in a bit."
Alex sighed. "I wonder if I should give more supplies to her for today\'s session. I mean, they will soon have more when the Gacha System starts working."
[You can probably give her a warning about what will happen. Not about the world\'s evolution, but the natural disasters.]
"Yeah, I think I can do that and try to help them fight those monsters for a bit."
Several minutes later, Mileda came back to see him. Of course, she kept apologizing to him until Alex stopped her forcefully, so they could talk.
Just like the previous day, this conversation lasted for hours. Alex then stated his terms for the payment today, and Mileda felt happy about it, telling Alex that she needed to prepare along with her brother.
Alex nodded and waited again until the "nighttime" before he flew to the sky.
He didn\'t want any people from here to witness what was about to happen, so he was slight to the north.
Going around for one more time, he had confirmed there wasn\'t a single settlement near him.
He then released his seal, showing his Divine Energy to the world.
Rumble Rumble.
As if responding to his advance, the sky turned dark as thunder began rumbling in his ears. He looked up and saw that the Lightning Tribulation was showing hostility.
However, Alex calmed it down by saying. "I am here to make another proposal. How about we talk?"
Seeing Alex only released his power just to call him, the Lightning Tribulation then struck forth.
Alex didn\'t do anything regarding this because the Lightning hit the ground in front of him, not him.
The energy contained in the lightning was absorbed to the ground as he sensed a huge amount of energy rushing to the surface.
This could be compared to that of a Rank 3 God or even stronger. No wonder even God Rank Expert didn\'t want to mess with planets. They simply had the power to decimate them, at least those, Upper World or above.
That Pure Energy then formed into a human form but all white. Other than the body\'s structure, he couldn\'t see the eyes or anything on it.
The latter then sent a thought transmission to him. \'I believe this is an easier form to talk for you? Let me cut to the chase, for what reason a Rank 8 God like you coming to this place? Depending on your answer, I might need to kill you for trespassing.\'
