621 Fountain Of Life
Such aura would stand against any mental type attack. Just like that illusion thing the enemy of mine used before on my forces. If they got the water or the fruits from this den back then, they wouldn’t be affected at all.
To be honest, just comparing the two offers right now puts me in such a hard situation. The two gave such valuable things that would help me later on.
Forget about the alien battleground, using these treasures at this moment would greatly enhance my forces.
And there was still a third offer to think about.
Something told me this offer wouldn’t pale in comparison. Silverlining already scanned the offers and selected the top three.
Two offered such great terms, and the third didn’t come short in comparison.
The offer was made by Tontram. And to be honest, it might look the least favourable one among the other two, but the thing he offered held a great importance for me later on.
He offered the fountain of life. It was, according to Silverlining words, an old statue of the extinct supreme life shrine. I knew there was a life shrine here in our universe, but I didn’t know what was the difference between it and that extinct one.
This fountain of life could be used repeatedly. And that placed it above all other treasures here. However, the conditions for each time were really hard to fulfil for any normal being.
To use it, one had to select a very brutal fighting ground, one which consumed the lives of at least ten million in it. Then one should use it in a region that fell under his control.
This condition clearly stated that one should use it in any place belonging to his kingdom. So a kingdom heart was needed. And that battle must happen inside that region.
In addition to that, one had to pay lots of energy to just establish the fountain. The energy used could be in any form, even in stat points. But the number needed for stat points was really scary.
One hundred billion stat points per each time! Damn! I thought that I was rich, but at this price… I had to spend lots of my bones to get my hands over enough stat points to use the fountain just once.
These conditions limited the benefits of that treasure. Especially when adding the six months fixed period for it to mature and grow, without having anything to affect such speed at all.
But when the fountain would be established, the entire region would show major transformation.
The first to change would be the soil itself. The lands covered under the effect of this fountain would end up being suitable for any crops to grow.
Unlike what I was doing here, this soil would be rich in energy, enough to let any seed grow no matter what.
Also it would give a bonus to anyone living inside that place, an eternal bonus in stats that would grow the more time these people stayed there.
In other words, this place would turn out to be a hotspot, fought over by all to get a place there. People would flock to that region like they were going into pilgrimage or something sacred like that!
That was what could be considered as the passive effects of this fountain. The fountain would create a big lake in the centre of the area.
Per Silverlining words, this lake would grow and be added to the area and the world. It would be an additional piece of land here, with many great treasures born under water.
As for its water, it had a magical effect of expanding any place to double its size if enough was used. And the great thing was that this water was getting replenished with time and with addition of items provided by that sovereign in the offer.
What did that mean? I could grab a piece of land, throw it into the ocean and start pouring this magical water on it to let it grow in size. I could grow continents out of nowhere, expand any land to reach any size I wanted.
I could turn this small piece of land I got right now into a massive continent, and all would be under my control and dominance!
It wouldn’t only grow lands, it would grow places with resources. Consider a mine of great ore for example. Using this water there would expand it and its content, making any small mine of precious kind of ore become a huge one.
If any race consumed this water, then he could grow back any severed limb or part of his body. If he was on the brink of death, he would return back alive.
It was magical! Not to mention it could be used in potions and pills, creating fantastic drugs and boosts for anyone to use.
According to Silver Linings words, that sovereign already amassed huge wealth thanks to this water. It was a hot cake in the universe, with few suppliers and great demand.
As for its effects at the alien battleground, it was the same as other treasures.
Looking at this offer, I knew it might seem the lowest in terms of strict conditions and the long time needed for the fountain to be formed and water to be replenished.
But in comparison in terms of a long time like years or so, it didn’t pale at all! In fact, I thought of many ways to use this water to give me invaluable benefits.
The three offers were in front of me, and I had to choose one. Just watching the three made me feel bitter, like nothing else I felt ever in my life.
Each offer had its perks. Each offer had its own strengths. I wanted each, I wanted them all!
[I have something to offer, but I don’t know if it could be done…] Feeling such a dilemma and bitterness in making a decision here, I decided to go bold.
[Of course, just say it and I’ll see what I can do. Ah, Lurdan gave up his answer. He agrees to add the necromancer race in the offer]
