Looking at Taylor who had turned back into human form and the thick smoke behind him, the smell of sulfur everywhere, the collapsed mountains, the shattered and charred ground, like a scene of a doomsday invasion, the old king and the others fell into silence.
They couldn't even tell now whether the one they summoned was a hero or a demon king. This brave man solved the biggest crisis facing their kingdom with just two moves, but the hero's strength was so great that just two moves made them feel like they were facing the end of the world.
Taylor didn't care about the expressions of the old king and the others. He stretched out a finger and gently drew it forward. This stroke could only cause slight spatial fluctuations in other planes, but here it directly cut a hole in the space.
Outside this half-ruined capital, Taylor used his magical power to violently control the overly active and rich earth elements in this plane and built himself a simple replica of a wizard tower on the spot to live in. He now didn't even want to communicate with the king or ask for his reward. He just wanted to figure out one thing as soon as possible.
Two days later
In his makeshift wizard tower, Taylor felt a surge of blood rushing to his head as he looked at the numbers constantly jumping on the magic analyzer in front of him.
"Is this world...going to explode?"
Taylor pursed his lips unconsciously. Now he didn't even dare to stick out his tongue. The overly rich concentration of elements made Taylor's tongue extremely uncomfortable.
During the two days of continuous experiments and research, Taylor and Kano came to a terrible conclusion through the space analyzer, his own perception of space intensity, and the magic analyzer.
This plane has entered the countdown, and now this plane is an extremely terrifying bomb.
The space in this world is as fragile as a piece of paper. I'm afraid even those so-called great wizards can easily control the space.
It's okay that the concentration of elements is high, the worst that can happen is that those people will be forced to exert powers that do not originally belong to them.
But the element concentration is still rising.
Rising!!! What does this mean? This means that the total amount of elements in this plane is constantly increasing, with no trend of decreasing! The combination of the space strength that is as brittle as paper and the constantly increasing total amount of elements is enough to show that this world is about to explode.
"What kind of world have I come to?"
Taylor sat on his favorite animal-skin chair. In the past, the animal-skin chair looked just ordinary, but now, under the influence of the extremely abundant elements, the enchanted runes on it emitted a dazzling light, making him look like he was sitting on a light bulb.
I give up!
Taylor has already prepared to run away at any time. He can't risk his life by being a spy this time, right?
Taylor took out a round badge from his space storage ring and input a stream of mental power into it. The image of wizard Ernst instantly appeared on the round badge.
"I guessed you would contact me. Have you arrived? Isn't that place wonderful?"
Before Taylor could speak, Wizard Ernst acted as if he had expected this and continued.
"You can contact me, which means you have also discovered the problem of this plane. Yes, this plane is now a powder keg, and the amount of gunpowder is constantly increasing while the shell is constantly weakening."
You bastard......
After knowing that Wizard Ernst understood the situation in this plane, Taylor was still a little angry, but he suppressed his anger and asked calmly.
"Then Wizard Ernst, since you knew that this plane was a powder keg and it was about to explode, why did you send us in?"
Wizard Ernst explained: "We sent you in so that you can harvest more resources. This plane is doomed, but before it is destroyed, a large amount of elemental resources and space resources will burst out. These are rare good things."
"Another thing is that you are responsible for finding out where the archangels and pure-blooded demons are recuperating. They are very cunning and hide themselves very well. We cannot observe them from the outside, so we can only start from the inside."
"According to the judgment of the two great men, the archangel and the great demon are not actually in the upper and lower spaces of this folded plane. The place where they are recuperating is more secretive, so you need to go and investigate."
After learning his mission, Taylor calmed down and asked one last question.
"How long will this plane last?"
Even if you are sitting on a barrel of explosives, you still have to know the length of the fuse.
"The degree of self-destruction of this plane is getting deeper and deeper. I'm afraid there are angels and demons behind it. The time is immeasurable, but according to the current changes in the plane, this plane will be blown up in ten years, almost ten years."
"I know you are a newly promoted first-level wizard, and this is the first time I have seen such a situation. You must be feeling very complicated right now. Don't worry, there will be great people from this plane who will come to your rescue. This will be easy for them."
"After all, they are all human beings. Moreover, they were born and raised in this special environment. After they are trained well, they will be of greater use. At the very least, they can supplement the total population and cultivate more wizards."
After finishing his conversation with Wizard Ernst, Taylor put away the round badge and slumped in his chair, which was as bright as a light bulb, feeling lost. The best case scenario now was that the longest time was ten years, and after ten years this plane would explode.
How many creatures live in this plane? I'm afraid those humans, those alien races, and even those believers don't know that the world under their feet will be destroyed in ten years.
Although the humans in this dimension will not be destroyed, this feeling is piling up in his heart, making it difficult for him to express and very depressing. This is the first time he has encountered such a thing.
Kano in his spiritual space didn't know what to say at the moment. He didn't feel too much about the demise of life in this plane. He just saw that Taylor was in a complicated mood, so he didn't say anything.
"It's such a sad and helpless thing, the whole world..."
"Forget it, it has nothing to do with me anyway. Besides, there are always big people who can help the humans living in this plane."
Taylor quickly adjusted himself and prepared to discuss with Kano to implement their next plan, looking for traces of angels and demons, and then these angels and demons would look for the traces of the archangels and pure-blooded demons behind them.
…………………………
Kingdom Palace The king sat on his throne with his son and daughter sitting on his left and right. Three great wizards stood behind the king. The ministers of the kingdom also gathered together.
The reason why they were so grand was that Taylor finally agreed to meet them today. In order to make Taylor feel his sincerity, the king specially set up a brand new seat next to his throne. It looked a little higher than himself because there were two layers underneath.
Although this plane is strange, it has a terrible benefit to his spatial research. There is no other way. The space is too fragile. Taylor can now use spatial turbulence, spatial gaps, spatial distortion, spatial fluctuations and mirror space at will. Because the space here is too easy to use.
The space that was difficult to manipulate in the past seemed easy to control here. He could easily use his magic power and spatial ability to tear open the dark space cracks with his bare hands.
Taylor felt that if he continued to study for a while, his attainments in space science would be greatly improved, and his bloodline would also take a big step forward.
Seeing Taylor's appearance, everyone subconsciously straightened their bodies, and the standing ministers moved slightly to the sides, fearing that this devil-like brave man would burn them to ashes if he was displeased.
The king, princess and prince sat upright, just like students meeting their teacher. The three great wizards held their heads and chests high, their bodies trembling uncontrollably. The doomsday scene was still lingering in their minds, and their hands were tightly clenched with sweat as they gripped their staffs.
Perhaps the only person who is still relatively calm now is the High Priest Marti from the Church of Light, who also stands with the ministers.
In the eyes of High Priest Marty, the heroes are undoubtedly a group of strange heretics. They are definitely no match for the angels, nor for the great God of Light. What can a hero do under the shining light?
If possible, Grand Priest Marti even planned to guide Taylor to become a believer of their Church of Light. If he could bring a brave man into their Church of Light, then in the future he, Grand Priest Marti, would be able to promote him and he would become Archbishop Marti.
Marty thought so in his heart, and inadvertently revealed a smile. The ministers who noticed the smile of the high priest sighed in their hearts that the people from the Church of Light had high psychological qualities and could smile even when facing a brave warrior like a devil.
The old king personally came down from the platform with his children. He walked up to Taylor and bowed deeply to him.
"Thank you, brave man, for saving our Green Leaf Kingdom. But now the Green Leaf Kingdom has fallen into desolation. Half of the cities and people have been slaughtered. We have nothing left to give. If you don't mind, I can offer the rest of the kingdom to you."
The old king did not intend to use moral kidnapping. The strong are the strong. Trying to restrain the strong with some illusory things has too much uncertainty and is too dangerous.
He really had nothing on hand, so he could only choose to offer the remaining half of the kingdom to the brave man. Not to mention the remaining half of the kingdom, even if he had his old bones, he could only obediently serve as a slave to the other party.
this…………
Taylor raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect that the kingdom was now so poor.
"Then can your kingdom still mine space and elemental resources?"
Since he didn't know the names of the various materials here, Taylor directly summarized them as spatial resources and elemental resources.
"Yes, we do, but we need to organize people to mine now. We do have elemental resources, including various elemental crystals and elemental metals."
The old king nodded vigorously and introduced to Taylor: "We in the Green Leaf Kingdom don't have much else, but if we talk about elemental resources, our Green Leaf Kingdom has the most among the nearby kingdoms."
"But my lord, the space resources you need are indeed running low. The remaining resources are all used to summon your arrival. It will take time to collect space crystals and star sands, which ordinary workers cannot collect."
From the old king's introduction, Taylor roughly understood the resource distribution of the Green Leaf Kingdom. Most of the resources of this plane can be found in this kingdom. Except for some rare resources, there are elemental metals, elemental crystals, space crystals, and space sand.
"In that case, while you restore your kingdom, mobilize more people to mine these resources. All the resources for the next ten years will belong to me."
"Can."
Faced with Taylor's conditions, the old king nodded and agreed. It was good enough that the other party did not destroy them directly. He could still continue to rule the kingdom, but it would make his subjects suffer.
What’s more, what the brave man wants is ten years of special resources, not all the resources for ten years. They can handle it.
"Okay, then you can take your time to make your arrangements. If you need anything, come find me at the Earth Elemental Tower outside the city."
Taylor nodded, and when he tore open a space channel and was about to leave, a fanatical voice called him.
"My dear hero, I wonder if you are interested in learning about the God of Light!"
"oh?"
Taylor stopped, turned around and looked at the high priest in platinum robes, an inexplicable smile slowly emerging on his face.
Hooked
"What kind of god is the God of Light? I want to know."
Hearing Taylor's words, Marty wanted to jump up on the spot. Hahahahaha, even a brave man can't resist the charm of light! "My lord, I think we should choose a quiet place to let you understand the kindness of light, the greatness of light and the supreme God of light."
Taylor pointed to the space channel he had just opened and said.
"Then come to my place and discuss it in detail."
"Okay, okay."
After Taylor and Marty disappeared, the old king sighed. He felt that the brave man was going to be poached by the Church of Light.
He also hoped that the hero could stay here during the ten years when they mined the special resources.
The princess of the kingdom comforted him, "Father, what does not belong to us will never belong to us. The brave man has unparalleled power, and his decision is not something we can influence."
The old king turned his head and looked at his daughter. He became more and more satisfied with his daughter.
"Yeah, we can't force what doesn't belong to us. It's just a little strange. I heard that the heroes summoned by several other kingdoms have also gone to the Church of the God of Light recently. Is the God of Light so charming?"
