543 The Betting Heaven World
Sigh! That cultivation problem… I had to find a solution for it soon. If I solved this, it would end up for the best.
Turning all these humans to cultivators was going to be the strongest boast I’d give to my forces.
I got Lily and her boys ready to do it, but still lacked the secret recipe. I hoped the Bringold impact wouldn’t keep it hidden off me for any longer.
We agreed for Hilary to lead the rebuilding process at the eastern side first then expand it towards the entire eastern coast.
As for Isac, this girl had lots of work to do. She stopped planning the entire kingdom when she went with the other two girls.
So she had to speed up and try to finish as many plans as possible within a short time.
Angelica was left behind to organise the new humans coming here on a daily basis.
“But we still have the problem of ores to solve,” Isac sighed, “we can’t possibly lay the foundation of any building using dirt and normal rock!”
“The miners are working hard to achieve that,” Angelica was more aware about the status of this than Hilary and me.
“They will take much time to do it,” Isac turned to me before adding, “can’t you buy them?”
“Constructing materials? From the market?!” I saw many ores indeed, but they were just special ones that were used in making gears or something.
But I never saw large batches of such ores used for construction before.
“I didn’t mean that,” she gave me a weird look before sighing, “come on! It’s not that normal for you to get all these human slaves without the help from someone in another world.”
“Oh… You mean…”
“The ones who help you to get humans can help you get materials, right?” her words made quite sense, “we can just use this for now. Later on, and when we secure many mines, we can depend on ourselves.”
“Smart dude,” Hilary pointed at Isac before adding, “yet he is… A soft kind of a dude.”
“Yes, he isn’t anywhere like that cold jumper, the harsh spearhead, or even the foolish Leo,” Angelica added, and I could only inwardly smile.
These two… They got what was wrong in Isac, but luckily their minds gave an excuse for this.
So the idea of him being a girl didn’t even cross their minds, and hopefully it wouldn’t anytime soon. Or else I might get a beating from Hilary for that!
“I’ll try my best,” I didn’t ask about the types of ores she needed. After all, the Bringold impact was such a magical place for me.
I only needed to ask for the best building ores out there and I’d get heaps of them. As for the price tag, I didn’t get myself worried about this.
With my bones… Nothing was impossible.
“When?” Hilary asked as she was the one responsible for the reconstruction process.
“I’ll go and get our next batch of humans. You can start leading your people to follow me towards the same location as before.”
“Got it!”
“I’ll go then to start preparing the people,” Hilary looked at Angelica before adding, “when you are done, send all the workers and normal people over to me.”
“Where will you be?”
Hilary hesitated and I knew this damn seal thing was causing more trouble than I expected.
“I’ll let a few of my dragons work as messengers,” I said before adding when the three girls gave me a questionable gaze, “just assign a team to do this task. They will get on my dragons’ back and start flying all over the capital.”
“Great,” Hilary seemed relieved from a big burden by such a solution.
“Damn! Why do I feel envious towards those messengers?” As for Angelica, her eyes shone in obvious envy, making all of us chuckle at what she said and truly felt. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
I waited until the three left before I went towards the location outside the sealing blockage.
[Tell me you got my humans]
[Sure, I was just waiting for you to speak with me]
I sent this to the lady, but somehow I felt she had more to say here.
[Send them then. Anything else?]
[What you asked for is getting ready]
[The recipe?!!!] My eyes went all wide, [Is it ready now?]
[Not right away, but it will be ready in couple of days]
[Great]
[But… This recipe must remain hidden or else…]
It seemed the higher ups of her impact were hesitating about delivering it to me for that reason.
[Don’t worry, only trusted ones will get to see it]
[Can’t you keep it to yourself?]
[Are you joking? I need to use it to strengthen my boys!]
[Fine! But make sure you select your trusted people well]
[Don’t say it like this, after all I trust you]
[Hahaha! I’m different, right?]
[You know better]
[Just if you were near me… Sigh! Such a tycoon like you are playing in a rudimentary apocalypse. That’s unfair!]
[To whom? To you?]
[At least… and to the people fighting at your apocalypse]
[Hahaha! Leave them alone. They are doing just fine fighting me]
[I can hardly believe it!]
[Just send this batch over, I’ll pay the price now]
[Wait… I also got another thing…]
She paused and I didn’t say anything back. If she has anything to say, why hesitate?
[You know… There is a place in the universe… A world known as the betting heaven]
Betting heaven? What was that? And why was she mentioning it to me?
[And?] I asked without much interest in that place.
[Well… It’s considered a grand fighting arena between races. Big names bid there with their forces, and the winner takes a lot of things]
[Sounds interesting] I paused, [But how is it related to me?]
[You have to consider joining it]
[Joining… Damn girl! You just said it’s a place for fighting and bidding! And big names are there! How am I supposed to fight there? And why would I even risk it!!!]
