Undying Warlord Chapter 141 Resolve

Chapter 141 Resolve

Right now, Dilan was very confused.
The value of human Essence crystals worried him a lot.
He was quite certain that the situation revolving around their race would gradually worsen.
Simultaneously, the dangers around them would increase over time.
As such, everyone had to work hard and advance as long as it was still possible. This did not only include his own improvement but even more so of the others.
Dilan was quite confident to fight monsters at the Peak of Tier-1. He would have to go all-in and enter a weakened state afterward, but if the situation demanded it, a weakened state would be a small sacrifice.
“I’m still not familiar with my abilities, their limits, and how to utilize them properly to make use of their full potential if I were to combine several abilities at once…”
Not knowing much about his abilities was not Dilan’s only issue. The few pieces of equipment he possessed could be considered quite useful and rare but they were still not enough for him.
It would be difficult to enhance his boots and gloves because they possessed additional abilities that were of great use.
However, Dilan could also wear other equipment that could improve his prowess even further.-.
The others would also be able to wear powerful equipment as long as Dilan procured enough Essence crystals to trade them with treasures.
But that would require time, similar to how Old Jeff required time to perfectly forge a weapon.
“Old Jeff should be able to start forging in a few days…I should enter the Krendel’s Underground Valley with a few Ascenders tomorrow.”
They had yet to procure enough ores to allow Old Jeff to start forging properly.
It was only fortunate that they didn’t lack basic resources such as coal and forging tools.
Even if it took them some effort and time to find everything they needed, Old Jeff was currently in the last phase of his preparations before he would start working.
That was also why Dilan had been quite excited before.
Unfortunately, his excitement had been washed away by the fact that there was a possibly dangerous temple inhabited by two different races.
Mankind’s stance was also somewhat questionable as they might either turn into a highly sought-after resource by other monsters, or they would overcome all struggles and keep ascending.
Dilan held high hopes for the latter but the current situation was somewhat uncertain while the true terror had yet to unfold.
He understood this and could only sigh deeply while searching for the highest building in the surrounding area.
Melanie might have told him about the temple but that didn’t mean he should blindly believe her.
That was also the reason for him to get his hands on a spyglass and to take a look at the Shikan plains from an elevated position.
Even if the hospital’s rooftop allowed Dilan to see a lot, Rian’s tight-knit infrastructure restricted the sight and did not allow him to have a panoramic view of the Shikan plains.
Thus, when Dilan reached the rooftop of the highest building in his proximity, he immediately looked around.
There were some issues with his sight even though he had the [Nightvision] ability.
It was around midnight and the only somewhat helpful source of light was the moon.
The object of Dilan’s interest was far away as well, which was why he could barely make out the outlines of a temple after more than 20 minutes had passed. If his guess was correct, it seemed to belong to the Aztecs.
His focus was on the temple.
‘It must be quite large if I can see it from a distance of…more than 20 kilometers? Is that even correct?’
Dilan had difficulties determining how far the temple was located. That was why he gave up coming up with rough predictions.
Instead of gauging his current distance to the temple he tried to make out its appearance.
Its size certainly exceeded the size of pyramids. The foundation of the temple had stairs that led up to the round temple, which had a cone-shaped roof. The roof’s shape was unusual but it was not something Dilan was concerned about.
Dilan also knew that round Aztec pyramids were predominantly built to worship one God; the Quetzalcoatl.
That was also why he couldn’t help but feel a little bit odd. While he was wondering about this, his eyes suddenly spotted a faint reddish gleam above the temple.
A huge ball-shaped object shone like the sun for a quarter of a second before its glow dimmed at once.
The ball-shaped object made Dilan peer at it intently, which was why he realized only now that it was not connected to the cone-shaped temple but that it was levitating above it!
‘How is that possible?!’ Dilan wondered, only to realize that Milarn’s logic didn’t apply to real-life anymore.
After all, they had Gates that would transport them to other dimensions, followed by mythical beasts that were capable of spewing flames, bolts of lightning, and so on.
Even humans had now changed, turning into existences that could do things that rivaled the abilities of Gods.
As such, a levitating ball-shaped object shouldn’t confuse Dilan that much.
But that was exactly what happened. It was just a few seconds but he was astonished before his mind calmed in an instant.
His worries about humans turning into a resource for other beings to become stronger deteriorated.
“Everything will be fine…even if I have to turn into a monster myself…” Dilan could only mumble. He clearly understood what kind of changes the appearance of temples and the races that inhabited the area around the temples would cause.
And even the best possible scenario Dilan could come up with in his mind was anything but good…
As such, he could only grit his teeth and clench his fist, knowing that he could only strive toward attaining more strength, and to overcome every single obstacle that was bound to be thrown in his way during his ascension!
Dilan’s resolve was firm and reinforced, strengthened to an extent that exceeded mortal realms.
If someone were to see him right now, one would be able to see the first signs of a mortal existence walking down a path that was filled with dangers, pain, even death…but also opportunities and most importantly…hope!
It was a path that no mortal was supposed to walk on, yet, there was one individual, who would dare to take on all the burdens in order to achieve everything he wanted to, even if that meant he had to overcome death itself!
However, until that day would arrive, death would continue to lurk around Dilan.
