Sam looked at Ling Tian who is releasing that dangerous aura. Even though it is just a holographic image, he can still feel it.
Sam felt an unknown and subconscious fear grip his heart and he took two steps back without even knowing.
Ling Tian looked at Sam who is sweating profusely and said.
"Don’t think too much. I was in the middle of something. While I was preparing to give you the message something uninvited came up and ruined everything.
I hope I am not late."
Sam calmed himself down. He now understood how much he is underestimating the gods. That aura cannot be faked, that is a real deal. After that initial fear, there is excitement boiling through his body.
One day he is going to butt heads with the likes of Ling Tian and people even stronger than him. He would hold them by their throats and demand that they tell him why they forced him into this life. While he is lost in thought, Ling Tian spoke.
"I don’t know if you came into contact with other candidates, but the next palace of inheritance was already decided. This time, there was an extra game before the Palace of inheritance.
Everyone is going to go to different cities in the same region.
There are six cities in that region and each city lord and his family possess a piece of special lightning type weapon.
One piece of this weapon will only allow one person to enter the palace of inheritance. So, for the next one, only six people will be entering and the competition inside is still unknown.
The place you are going to is a bit dangerous and there will be no humans there. You have to be careful. Death is not completely out of bounds.
This time you cannot bring any extra people to the Palace of inheritance. In fact, it is better if you don’t bring your friends to that place at all."
Sam looked at him with a bit of confusion. He doesn’t know why this is happening all of a sudden and why is he the only person that got this information later than everyone else. If not for the fact that he has ties with Arman and Arkiv, then he wouldn’t have even known about this.
"Are your injuries connected to this matter?"
Sam asked, not really expecting an answer, but Ling Tian answered.
"Actually, they are. Someone tried to stop the information from going to you sooner. They gave the information later and when I was about to send the message to you, they came and attacked, I just dealt with them."
"Who did that? The same person in charge of the Palace of inheritance this time?"
"Yes. But don’t think too much into it, because of this, we can take advantage of the situation a bit. Do you want anything?"
"I get a say in what I want?"
"Of course, just tell me, it would be possible to fleece them a bit. I have clear evidence of their activity."
Sam thought for a moment and explained what he wanted. He was already thinking on how to get this item in this Palace of Inheritance.
Now that Ling Tian himself asked this, there is a high probability.
Ling Tian listened to Sam’s requirements and said.
"It would be hard to get this as a reward. It would be too wasteful, but we have a different way to get this to you. Just wait for this Palace of inheritance to be over and there would be an instance while presenting your rewards. You will understand how to get that item then.
Be careful though, this time the whole thing is a bit complicated but also direct at the same time. The danger is multiplied by a lot."
"Thank you."
With that Ling Tian disappeared after he gave some coordinates.
Sam was surprised once again because these coordinates are almost the same as Arkiv.
Only the last two points changed a bit and both of them will still be a few kilometers away from each other. They are most likely to be dropped into the same city.
Sam left the divine dimension and went back to the office where Arman and Arkiv are still waiting.
"I got the message. Apparently, it is delayed by someone for some reason."
Sam said and heaved a sigh.
Arkiv and Arman exchanged a glance and thought of something.
"Didn’t you say that not all gods are psychos? Then why is this happening?"
Arkiv asked sarcastically.
Sam lost interest in arguing.
"How would I know that their pettiness is only second to their immense power? When I get the chance, I will spank their asses so long that their skeletons would escape those skins because of the constant pain they had to feel. That is if they have skeletons and skin."
"Yeah, yeah. You can daydream later. Tell us what the plan is? Are you bringing the trio?"
"Most probably not. I have to get the information on that place first and will decide later. But from what I already know it is going to be a bit dangerous."
"Okay then. You take care of it and contact us. We should leave together. I think those three are leaving after three days."
Arkiv said and stood up to leave.
"How are you getting this info?"
Sam asked with confusion.
"After the Usaine sect was done for, I went to one of those common cities in the central continent, where people from all major powers can gather.
I kind of started a network there and these idiots are doing every conversation and meeting there. It became a bit easy to get the information like this."
"Good for you. What is this network for? Are you starting something?"
"I want to open an exploration team for the Central continent. Even the major powers are too afraid to maintain their activity in the Central continent. It is free territory. I want to do some conquering. Want to partner up?"
"We will see, first you start the project. If I like it, I might consider it."
"What is the point of considering? You have so much money, where would you spend all that? I am thinking of asking you to make a base for me there. Strong enough to defend myself in the Central continent. If you partner up, you can do it for free and I will take care of the rest."
"I have extra money, but why would I waste it on something I don’t know if it will work? It might be extra, but it is still something I earned. So, now stop thinking of my riches and get lost." Sam said with a smug look.
"Yeah, yeah, be that smug and one day I will watch you getting the crap beaten out of you by someone cockier than you, then I will have the same smug face as you do now."
"Who is day dreaming now?"
Arkiv left after being unable to continue the banter. Arman shook his head at their childish behavior and left along with Arman.
Sam also left the room and went to the space gates.
He took the space gate to go to the tempest valley.
He met with the Old beast.
"How have you been? When did you return?"
The Old beast asked as soon as Sam sat down.
"I am good. I had a great haul this time. I became a lot richer. The elves don’t value the spirit stones as much. It is too cheap for them. They are more focused on the deliciousness of the food and meat."
"Of course, elves are born vain creatures. They have very few rules for their personal actions. How are the things from the political side?"
They talked about all the things, the elections, fields, Raunak’s matter, sea folks, the sirens, they talked about everything.
"I thought the war between sirens and elves would have been over by now. It seems like the elves are patient than I thought."
"It is not far off if you ask me. I just started a spark and threw it on the dry grass, there would definitely be war. The elves are too cocky for their own good, they would definitely test their limits with those harpoon guns and if the sirens reacted kindly, the elves would be in trouble.
After all, their main forces are comprised of humans and centaurs out of which Centaurs are stronger on average, but they cannot do anything in the water."
After some more discussion, Sam finally opened the dimensional drifter and asked.
"Here this is my next Palace of inheritance location. I have to go there in a few days. There is a competition waiting for me there."
"Old Beast looked at the name of the planet and was a bit surprised."
"Planet Nike? There are no humans there."
"I know. Ling Tian told me about that. There is some kind of weapon which was divided into six pieces and they are placed in six cities. The only one who can get a piece of that weapon can enter the next palace of inheritance."
"Well good luck with that. You are going to have real trouble now."
"Why would you say that?"
"That planet is actually a lower level thing than the Naga Loka, but the only reason it was ranked higher because of its connection with the higher gods, it was named after the goddess the people on that planet pray for. Goddess Nike, the charioteer of Zeus."
"Do you think, she is the one playing the game, I don’t know much about her."
"No, she is not on the same level as the rest of the gods who are playing. There is a probability that this round it would be Zeus. Take care, that Bastard is cockier than you."
