Chapter 1446: Chapter 1444: A Brand New Direction
As the [Biggest Winner] of the London Game, Han Dong received a total of four rewards.
Even though the final piece would be distributed post-Myth stage via ‘pre-order,’ it caught the attention of everyone present, including Pope.
The distribution of the rewards also revealed something.
During the London Game, Han Dong conducted experiments with the ‘Ghoul Army,’ which received validation from above.
The so-called “Manor Modification” might lead some Upper Beings to conduct a thorough investigation of the ghouls in the manor, and there could be other matters that find their way to Han Dong then.
In addition,
Besides the [Book of Dead Spirit], the most valuable reward was a direct invitation from the Gray Old King, inviting him to [Forbidden Land – Heart of Mad Chaos] for a personal upgrade guidance of the “Faceless Skull.”
The origin of the skull is closely related to the Gray Old King, and perhaps through this, the true nature of the skull can be understood, achieving the maximum limit of upgrades.
“Senior, regarding the skull upgrade, should I go with you after the awards ceremony is over, or is there another time?”
“That’s for you to decide.
I have left a mark in your eye, allowing us to establish contact when necessary.
My suggestion is to reach out to me when you’re fully prepared… This skull upgrade will involve experiences you’ve never had, ensuring you’re in optimal condition.”
“Okay.”
Up to this point,
the “award ceremony” of the London Game was completely over.
It was expected that the Upper Beings would summarize the London Game or elaborate on their attitude towards the Fate Space.
Yet, with the rotation of the circular disc on the square and the rising starlight, everyone was transported back to the Earth Region… Apparently, the Upper Beings didn’t care at all about the Fate invasion situation.
…
The end of the awards ceremony marked the conclusion of the London Game.
The Human Expeditionary Army temporarily stationed at a southern valley in London to ensure they wouldn’t be affected by the stink of the Meat Mountain, while waiting for the Great Demon Leader to adapt fully to the throne.
By then, with the official throne from the Demon World and the obtained sovereignty, the Human Expeditionary Army could utilize the teleport network built by demons worldwide to return to the Holy City in a safe and swift manner.
The demons from various areas (Element Forces) also left the Meat Mountain region and prepared to embark on their return journey.
Before leaving, ten Elements gathered in a stone chamber, seemingly by chance.
The cooperation during the London Game diminished the estrangement between them considerably… Of course, Pope still refused to speak with Green.
“… Let’s leave it at that.
By the next meeting, everyone should have reached the Myth stage.”
Pope made a brief summary without any intention to stay.
Currently, Pope focused most of his thoughts on the Demon Book, eager to return and examine the related content of [Revelation of Glaki], to finalize his ‘Mythical Puzzle.’
Just as everyone was about to leave,
a wave of mad energy condensed into the shape of a hand, pulling everyone back, their gazes fixated on Green:
“Ah~ Since we’re all together, let’s chat a bit longer~
I believe there are still many who haven’t had enough fun in the London Game. I have a special operation here and would like to hear everyone’s thoughts.
Before the London Game, I already discussed matters related to the ‘Fate Space’ with Nicholas.
As a human who enhanced himself through Fate, he is incredibly familiar with the Fate Space.
Now, he is willing to act as a guide, leading me, Sally, and Hop to the Fate Space to carry out a highly challenging secret event, which might even rival the difficulty of the London Game.
Does anyone have the intention to participate?
Pope… you should be quite interested, right?”
Green, in reality, was eyeing Pope’s special ability, intending to drag him into it.
However,
Pope responded with a cold expression:
“I refuse.
Nicholas is ‘similar’ to me in some respects. We aren’t suitable to form a team and operate together.
Furthermore, our exploration of the Fate Space isn’t necessarily reliant on external help. Among us, hasn’t someone already completed a Fate Journey alone?”
Pope turned his gaze towards Eugenes.
Green quickly leaned closer to the glass container, “Oh? Eugenes, you guy, you’ve already gone to the Fate Space alone once? No wonder you had the confidence to hold back a Mythic Body on the battlefield.”
“… Yeah, I used the Elder Race’s technology to adjust and control the [Door of Fate], relying on a crafted human semblance, and I’ve been there once.”
“How difficult was it?”
“Extremely difficult. Without the right preparation or some determination, even we might perish inside.
Of course, the gains are incredibly rich. It’s a new, highly worthy area to explore.”
“Wow, that’s fantastic!… So I’ll ask again, does anyone want to join us? We can currently add one more member to our team.”
Since Pope didn’t participate, Hyde Darius naturally wouldn’t either.
Aslan, squinting his eyes, could sense the benefits in it, like Eugenes’ spectacular performance in the London Game, was inseparable from his journey to the Fate Space.
However, the inherently dangerous and never-before-experienced Fate event, coupled with Green’s presence, would increase the difficulty.
After some consideration, Aslan did not respond.
Miss Helen wasn’t particularly concerned about ‘becoming stronger’; she was more interested now in a young human gentleman.
Eugenes naturally wouldn’t cooperate with Han Dong.
As for King Star. Weed, due to personal obligations to return to his galaxy, needed approval for all his actions, unable to decide now.
At this point, a Ghoul Arm covered in stitch marks slowly rose.
“Very high difficulty… So, there’s a high probability of dying, right? Boss Green, can I go?”
Amidst the crowd.
“Kite… Sure, come with me.”
Seeing no one else interested in joining, Green didn’t bother asking further and immediately led Kite, Sally, and Hop out of the stone chamber to meet Han Dong outside the Meat Mountain.
[Stone Chamber]
Due to Green’s proposal, he fell into deep thought.
The “Fate Space” is a mysterious domain that the Demon Group had never ventured into…
Whether it’s the performance of humans or that of Eugenes, it’s evident that the Fate Space greatly aids in enhancing abilities, providing a brand-new training path.
Moreover, the unique adventures within the Fate Space allow them to encounter various life forms and rules from other worlds, providing higher adaptability for potential future wars.
Considering this, Pope suddenly said:
“Eugenes… I suggest we form a team and attempt to visit the Fate Space together.
I’ll inquire with my teacher about the specific details to minimize unknown risks as much as possible.
And considering your experience, you should be able to act as a guide, right?”
Eugenes replied with a troubled expression:
“Actually, I’ve only been there once and have limited experience.
If we can find a more skilled guide, it might be better.”
“A guide?”
Prompted by Eugenes’ suggestion, Pope suddenly thought of someone, a human he hadn’t known long but whom he recognized.
