Chapter 968 - The Sparkling Mountain
Arthur knew the two beings in his head made sense with their words. Things looked fishy in his eyes. But luckily for him he had more space to lock that beauty up.
He didn\'t want her to come in contact with any original, not for now at least. He just wanted to study the flower first and discover the fault in it.
He was quite sure this was all the flower\'s doing. "But who did this and why?" he kept wondering before hesitating about another matter.
"Should I go back to them? Or go back out?"
He didn\'t want to confront the originals for now. For unknown reasons he felt responsible and little guilt towards them.
\'Sara is having a long chat with them right now,\' Gege suddenly said, \'and that chick… She is really training!\'
"This fast?" Arthur was surprised when hearing Gege\'s words. The latter word\'s meant only one thing, that beauty had already shown signs of progress.
In his eyes this was incredible! He never expected any result for the next couple of days.
\'Did you forget my garden is special?\' Gege chuckled before adding, "anyway she is making progress in her training. That means she can advance her power, right?\'
"That\'s correct," Arthur nodded in a deep tone, "and that adds a lot to the mess right here."
\'I thought it would help!\' Gege was surprised to hear his comment, but Arthur didn\'t say anything about this matter for now.
"Get me out," he said, "I want to see what these two are doing out there."
\'What about Sara?\' she asked.
"Leave her with the originals for now," Arthur didn\'t want to interrupt her investigation. After all she would make a great help in gathering reliable and useful information from the originals and then tell him about it all.
Per his request, Gege summoned a portal that took him outside. The moment he came out, he noticed the presence of many more people than before.
"They are getting started," Arthur said in content while watching Deem and Gor leading the top workers of theirs and arrange things.
The two seemed to finish planning the city and were ready to start building. However Arthur knew such a process would be quite challenging.
"Gege," he suddenly recalled something, "make those inside bring wood, stone, and other materials needed to build the city from the garden world."
\'Why is that?\' she asked, \'this will take more time and cause a little trouble for those inside. Plus my body is sacred! It\'s not touchable by any!!\'
"Just listen and do as I say," Arthur shouted the moment he heard her unreasonable words, "your body isn\'t sacred compared to this mountain here. I can\'t let them touch the mountain at all!"
Arthur recalled the building process of all the cities he witnessed. Deem and Gor would first arrange teams to dig the ground, but they would also arrange teams to bring up materials needed from the area around.
Being the greatest mountain in the area, it was expected for them to ask the workers to get stones from. After all, this mountain was the closest one to the building site.
So Arthur made sure they wouldn\'t touch the mountain by what he asked from Gege. He also wrote a bird\'s wing to Deem, asking him to not touch the mountain.
Unsatisfied with his words, Gege did what he asked for. She opened a lot of portals and many people started to come out of them in the next few minutes.
"Agnus is doing great inside," Arthur could see the touches of his genius blacksmith. When he remembered him, he decided to bring him out when starting to dig for the Gruben ore.
After all, and according to Sara, he needed blacksmiths and not miners.
His wait for Sara took almost the entire night for him. He wasn\'t bored actually. Watching the workers diligently digging the ground and laying down the foundation of the Ley Lines diagram was amusing.
The world seemed tranquil and peaceful in his eyes. He lacked such a feeling and craved it for so long. So he enjoyed himself as much as he could. He prayed that his city would enjoy such an atmosphere forever.
However just as the sun rose up and became high in the sky, Gege said:
\'Sara just finished talking to the originals. She wants to come out now.\'
"Bring her out."
Arthur was enjoying the reflection of sun rays over the mountain peak. The entire mountain was sparkling before under the silver moonlight. But under the sun, it turned entirely into a golden mountain!
The golden rays of the sun kept reflecting over the mountain, especially its peak. This created a dense sparkle of golden light that added more majesty to the mountain.
As Sara came out, this scene took her breaths as she was stunned for a long time. She wasn\'t the only one feeling so, even the workers felt the same when the sun first rose up.
Arthur could understand her reaction. After all, this mountain proved to be more useful than just a great beauty to the eye.
He tried to go up there to check the peak. When he landed there, he felt the rays reflected from the mountain gathering around him and penetrating his body.
Unlike what he thought, these rays acted in a warm way towards him. Plus they added more energy to his body, energy that felt natural and smooth like he was training on his cultivation just now.
He realized staying there and training would have great benefits, not only for him. He aimed towards making his entire army step into the cultivation world.
After the epic battle with the grandmasters from the higher realms he realized this fact. The way mages treated the training here was totally wrong!
They pushed their bodies over their limits trying to get all the energy out from their souls.. This wasn\'t wise or practical, especially when comparing this to using the vast and boundless energy of the world.
