Chapter 772 - Information Update
Inside the bright and warm cave, Alex met with all his UR spirits, except Nelson. Of course, Firia and his contracted beasts also participated.
"I think I don't need to say the purpose of our meeting today, right?" Alex narrowed his eyes.
Anna and the others nodded their heads. How could they forget about it? In a few days, Alex would take the first step in this chaotic war.
"Yes. Firstly, I want to tell you the information update first. After killing a huge number of monsters, all of us have become 5-Star Martial Saints. As for Leoz, he has become a 7-Star Martial Saint.
"With the Gacha Tickets we have right now, I believe we can raise everyone's level by one. Hence, we might be able to fight the Snow White Mountain with 6-Star Martial Saint Stage strength. There are not many people to begin with, so I believe we can take them on."
Alex looked down and opened his system. He hadn't opened his system for a while because of his training.
[Gacha Ticket x3420]
[Premium Ticket x0]
[Dart x0]
[Gacha Card x1]
[Gacha Coin x0]
[Gacha Hammer x0]
[Summoning Ticket x0]
[Summoning Coin x0]
"Fair enough. These many Gacha Tickets would surely give me more than sixty rare EXP Cards." Alex nodded before glancing over Firia and Sherry. To think both of them managed to reach 5-Star Martial Saint. They and Kyle also managed to catch up with Stina, so basically, they had the same cultivation stage.
"Yes. At the same time, some of us are close to level up, so we don't need a full seven EXP Cards. Hence, I believe some of us will be able to reach 7-Star instead of 6-Star. As for who it is… I will let you decide." Anya nodded.
"Alright. We are going to use this meeting to decide it. Before that, how are you all? Is there any problem you have right now?" Alex smiled.
Anna and the others looked at each other and nodded. "We are fine. We don't have anything to do other than killing monsters, and there is no problem right now."
"That's good. I am sorry for making you do all this." Alex scratched his head.
"No, no. It's our pleasure to do so."
Alex then turned to Sherry and Firia. "Good job, you two. Firia almost reached 6-Star, while Sherry is not that far either. I believe you can reach 6-Star within a few months."
"Said someone who caught up with our cultivation." She shrugged.
"That's right." Sherry nodded furiously. "Even though I have the same Pure Fire, Master always did something like this."
"Ahaha… I am just lucky to have met that couple two years ago." Alex shook his head and smiled. What he said was true. If Alex didn't meet Choong Duy and Chavel and got their token, he wouldn't be able to reach 5-Star Martial Saint this fast.
Sherry pouted, and Firia patted her head before saying. "In any case, your glory is our glory; there is nothing wrong with that. Besides, I am happy with the progression since I can see you becoming a God Rank Expert faster."
"Thanks." Alex nodded and glanced at Stina and Kyle. "How are you two? I think I have given you the technique for that, right?"
"Yes. We have mastered it within these two years." Stina and Kyle nodded before standing up and releasing their Spiritual Energy.
Suddenly, flames started covering their hands and feet before a pair of wings appeared on their back. Kyle said, "This is the technique. After using this, we can utilize our blood like how we were in our original form. The strength is also included.
"In other words, this might be the perfect form for us, where we can utilize both appearance and strength at the same time. In fact, I feel even stronger when I use this technique…"
"I am the same." Stina gave the confirmation of Kyle's claim.
"Sherry too!" Sherry also showed him her transformation. She seemed to be the same as when she attained her human form in the beginning — Fox tail and fox ears. However, Alex also noticed her eyes became slightly sharper and released a powerful aura.
"How does this technique work anyway?"
"There are three transformations in this technique. The first transformation is to gain the strength of our human form. However, the symbols are different. I mean, for me and Kyle, we have these hands to transform. As for Sherry, her eyes become fox eyes.
"The second transformation is to grasp our element. The same as before, our feet are the symbols this time while Sherry has her ears to appear. As for the last one, it is to boost our strength. As for the symbols… You can see the rest." Stina explained carefully.
'Sherry's tail and their wings… I see.' Alex narrowed his eyes and nodded. "I am sorry for having you train and fight only. I can't provide you with vacation currently."
"Haha… It's fine. If we reach God Stage, Kyle wants to ask me for a honeymoon… Maybe we will have another kid by then… Kyle is a beast, you know." Stina chuckled while Kyle gasped, never expecting Stina to blurt it out.
"…" Alex had no words to comment and changed the topic. "Your nightlife aside, there will be more opportunity if we reach God Stage. However, we need to finish our battle first before we can have a peaceful period to increase our strength. Hence, let's start our discussion."
None of them said anything as their expressions turned serious.
"First will be about the Freedom Sect. Do you know anything about Rose's progress, Viola, and their situation?" Alex asked Anya.
"We have been engaging in information exchange with them this whole time. Rose should be facing the Potential Tower right now… And maybe have finished her training. Her strength has increased to 7-Star Martial Monarch. However, her biggest advancement is her skill. She is already on par against that Maya, who have become diligent and reached 9-Star Martial Monarch."
"I see. Rose is good now. Maybe we can teach her about our problem and see whether she wants to reach God Rank Expert and come with us or stay in this world." Alex nodded.
"Fair enough. She has been chasing you with that intention, so I guess she will come with us. The only problem is to catch up if she truly wants to help you."
"Haha… I am her teacher, so I will protect her. However, I believe she can reach very high." Alex nodded. If one observed him carefully, his tone and smile were filled with pride.
No one said anything regarding that matter and simply continued. "Viola seems to want to go to the surface along with Rose. Considering this is your informal request, she wants to be Rose's guide to deal with the other troublesome matters. After all, that Licht must want to ask her some questions if he knows about this deal."
"According to the timing and such, I believe Rose is leaving the Potential Tower today or tomorrow, depending on her talent. I have never cared about whether she can beat it or not to be honest… She is my disciple, so of course, I want her to be the best. And this Potential Tower is the perfect trial for her to reach that step." Alex agreed before asking for another confirmation. "How many days before the Snow White Mountain starts their ritual?"
"Three days."
"We have time to wait for these two then." Alex nodded.
"Yes. As for the Freedom Sect themselves, they have informed everything to their disciples, including the war. A third of their force will stay there because they are afraid and don't want to leave their comfort zone. Meanwhile, the rest are ready for this war to take their freedom back.
"From the report, they have around thirty thousand disciples that can be deployed. If we take their elders into account too, we will have three hundred Martial Saints, three thousand Martial Monarchs. The rest will be either Martial Emperors or Martial Kings.
"They should be able to go at any moment notice because of the huge number of Space Element Masters there… This was the reason why Space Elements were hunted in the past… They are too convenient."
Alex closed his eyes and thought. "I don't care about that. If Freedom Sect wants world conquest, Rose might be the person to stop them. If they don't have such an aim, they will have more friendly relationsh.i.p.s with the other influences.
"In the future, the other influences will also have Space Elements in their rank. At that time, I don't need to care about this world anymore.
"After all, in the past, they could unite to fend off those magical beasts, so I believe they can do it again."
Anya also believed such a thing. In fact, she knew a few reasons for a world to unite, but most of the time, they united because they had the same enemy. And with this kind of bound, there would be a chance for the unity to be restored. Hence, Alex indeed didn't need to care about this world again. He wasn't the one in charge of it anyway.
"I understand. What do you want to know next?"
"Letizia's condition."
"She is ready to break through to Martial Saint and Sword Saint. Noel said there is going to be someone checking her today, so I believe she can break through to Sword Saint today and the other one when we have rescued her."
"That's good."
"How about a way to destroy the process?"
"There are two ways. First, we kill the Sacrificial Ice user. This way, they will have no body for their ancestor to possess. The only way is to have Letizia, but the latter is already with us by that time. As for the second way… We need to let the ancestor possess this person first before killing her. Her soul will also dissipate if we do it like this."
"How about the array? They need an array, right?"
"No. The ancestor's soul is hiding under that place. Noel said that the place is a huge stone platform with a few pillars surrounding it. If we don't kill their ancestors on this occasion, I believe she might turn against us. There is also no confirmation of her knowing the Spirit God."
"Alright. I choose the second way. With her possessing someone, she can only utilize the strength of that person. Even her Divine Soul must be restricted to some extent… In fact, Letizia might be able to beat her at this point." Alex nodded with a smile.
"Regarding that matter… Letizia seems to want to kill her. That person has done nothing but mocks her when she realizes Letizia's status. Hence, the resentment is quite deep."
"Fair enough. We need to handle the other elders as well, so I guess we can leave this matter to her."
Anya thought for a moment. "With this, we will have sixteen people in the group… My limit is fifteen, so if I exclude myself, this will be my limit."
"Limit?"
"Yes. I can only increase the ability of fifteen people with my True Spirit Body, so I don't know what to do if Rose is here…"
"You need to remove Nelson too."
"That's right. How come he takes so long… And he is even hiding some matters from me." Anya scratched her head.
"It's fine. Let him do whatever he wants." Alex waved his hand, stopping her from raging. There was not a single time where a betrayal flashed in their mind, so this matter wasn't a big deal.
"Fine. As for who fights who will be decided later when we know who are going to participate from their side."
"Yes." Anya agreed.
Alex then waited for another three days. Viola came with Rose this time, but the latter couldn't follow him in doing this secret mission because she was still too weak. Rose accepted to watch the house, albeit reluctantly.
After that, the group then teleported to Snow White Mountain. Of course, the spirits had returned to their respective card, and the contracted beasts had gone back to his body. Hence, only Alex, Firia, and Viola teleported there.
