Chapter 891: Chapter 891
"Finally finished, it’s a pity that I couldn’t develop a second, more advanced skill," Du You said, somewhat disappointed. Improving advanced skills was more challenging than he had imagined.
This was only possible because he had obtained a Divine Manual of Death. Without it, finding suitable skills for cultivation and enhancement would likely have been even more difficult. At least Shaliya had not acquired anything suitable.
"Alright now, we have limited time, let’s head back. The pioneering task will soon start."
Du You nodded. The pioneering task was swiftly approaching. By utilizing the time difference between the two worlds, they had been able to spend so much time enhancing their skills. Once they returned, after a few days of rest and dissipating the aura of the law from their bodies, the task would likely start.
"Please continue to look after the territory."
Shaliya earnestly replied, "Lord, please rest assured, we now have an army composed of tier-four forces. Unless the Divine Flame Empire makes a move, we can hold off even the Kingdom of Hanhai."
The Kingdom of Hanhai and Shaliya had grievances, so she knew them very well. If it weren’t for the existence of a tier-five in the Kingdom of Hanhai, and since they currently lacked a tier-five supporter, they couldn’t easily wage war. Even with their current forces, battling with the Kingdom of Hanhai was uncertain in outcome. Truly, their territory was exceptionally advantaged.
"Big brother, you must build a city soon; I really want to visit Earth."
Du You patted Elsa’s head, "During this period, cultivate diligently and enhance your own strength. Earth is different from here. On Earth, being a tier-four is merely significant, and nowhere near the level of true powerhouses."
In this world, being tier-four was already a significant figure, and tier-five could be considered nearly at the top. However, Earth was different. Although Du You didn’t know much, he was aware that there were quite a few tier-six at the Capital.
Elsa nodded slightly, yet her eyes grew brighter and more intrigued.
Du You didn’t say much else and led the sisters back to his secret chamber, then activated the spatial portal. Instantly, the three of them were absorbed into it, and when they reappeared, they were already back home.
"The aura of the law on our bodies will dissipate in three days, and in five days, the pioneering task will start. First, let’s put everything we brought back into the shop; items should sell well now."
Just as Du You had thought, goods were indeed selling very well now. With the pioneering task imminent, everyone wanting to participate had prepared all kinds of things, causing the prices to surge once again.
Not only were the prices of green items on the rise, but yellow ones as well. Seeing the current prices, Du You could only shake his head. Since he didn’t need anything urgently, he decided not to buy anything for the time being. ɴᴇᴡ ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀʀᴇ ᴘᴜʙʟɪsʜᴇᴅ ᴏɴ 𝓷𝓸𝓿𝓮𝓵⟡𝓯𝓲𝓻𝓮⟡𝓷𝓮𝓽
While the sisters handled the goods, Du You browsed the information released by the university.
"Giant World, a world of five Giant Tribes, with a world tier of five. There won’t be a tier-five being making a move this time, will there?" In reality, Du You didn’t even need to think about this; it was certain.
Since the world was tier-five, the opposing world definitely had tier-five combat capabilities, and whether a tier-six could appear when the world retaliated was also a question. Thus, conquering such a world inevitably meant that tier-five experts would appear.
Du You continued to review some public information. In the public data, five universities had each prepared a territorial item, planning to establish territories there. The reason for this being five universities was that there were only five slots available.
The Giants of the Giant World were divided into five tribes: Sun Giants, Night Giants, Land Giants, Forest Giants, and Flame Giants, all from an Outer World engaged in battle.
Locating such a tier-five Outer World was indeed fortunate. Tier-five in the context of the Outer World was considered low, similar to the Ice Crystal Plains he had visited before.
However, controlling the Ice Crystal Plains was not easy, plus that world was under the university’s control, a unique world. The university did not release world coordinates and could only be accessed through the World Boat; it had been locked by the world, so the university was not in a rush.
But this Giant World was different, a newly discovered world. The discoverer sold the coordinates to the Alliance, and naturally, to control this world, the Alliance would send people in. The specialties of the Giant World made the Alliance reluctant to let it go. As for what those specialties were, Du You didn’t know yet, as the published information did not mention it.
After many forces competed, the university alliance finally secured this pioneering task. After such prolonged contestation within the university alliance, five universities emerged to participate in this battle.
Once Capital University got a slot, they promptly notified everyone, sparing no expense in using considerable energy to transmit this news directly to the Other World through wristwatches, sending messages to those tier-four and above.
Du You believed the other four universities likely did the same.
Five universities pushing together was what led to the recent surge in prices of goods.
"Will they announce the combat roster tomorrow, an individual university against a Giant Tribe, to prevent the Giants from uniting, so this method must be used.? Although the Giants do not get along, they are still the same kind after all."
Du You read the data and slowly analyzed it: Sun Giants and Night Giants, one worshipping the sun and the other the moon, inherently embodying light and darkness, were naturally at odds.
Flame Giants were destructive everywhere, while Forest Giants liked to plant trees. Because Flame Giants often burned forests, their relationship with Forest Giants was hostile, constantly battling each other.
The Land Giants, however, were calm and quiet, but they liked to burrow underground, which always led to trouble from other Giants above them. Eventually, the Land Giants too became annoyed, harboring no goodwill towards other Giants. Their relationships were frankly quite straightforward.
The strength of the Giants was related to their size; tier-one Giants were over two meters tall, tier-two were four meters, tier-three were six meters, tier-four were eight meters. At tier-five, they were over ten meters tall. Such height was even taller than his Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, so merely by looking at a Giant’s height, one could gauge the approximate level of its strength.
The university also appealed that those with the capability to build territories could establish territories in the Giant World. The university alliance would be responsible for securing the lord’s rights after occupying the Other World, and there were certainly benefits involved.
