Death… And Me

Chapter 3119  Toys

Popon froze for a moment. He wasnʼt that rich...

Fortunately, Rean sneaked a Spatial Ring into his hand. ʼI have the Spirit Stones here. Just use them.ʼ

He once again looked at Rean, feeling impressed this Soul Transformation Realm guy had so many Spiritual Stones on him. Of course, he didnʼt speak about it and immediately paid the worker. ”This is truly expensive...”

The worker didnʼt think so. ”This is the Inquisition Forging Hall, my friend. The best Studying Materials and Equipment in the world are found and made in this place. If anything, we are charging quite a cheap price for everything you will have access to.”

Popon sighed but quickly recovered. That wasnʼt his money anyway. The worker then added Popon to the system and gave him the information about where they could take the test. While all that happened, Rean was in contact with Sister Orb. ʼHow is it, Sister Orb? Can you make the formations controlling the volcanoʼs energy go crazy?ʼ

When Rean arrived in the city, the first thing he did was get Sister Orb to analyze and take control of the formations of the Inquisition Hall. However, Sister Orb found out she was unable to hack into them that easily. Even though this was a mortal planet, the Inquisition Hall had Divine Level Formations operating. Letʼs not forget that back in Lisan, Divine Level Sub-jobs were usually performed by Void Tempering Realm and above experts. Well, it wasnʼt really impossible to hack into, but Sister Orb needed to be much closer to the cores of the formation. The Inquisition Forging Hall was built with materials that made external connection extremely difficult. Thus, Reanʼs only choice was to get inside. That wasnʼt all. Initially, Rean thought he could simply join the hall by himself and look for those cores. But that plan quickly fell apart. They couldnʼt get close to those Cores, but Sister Orb could at least tell their locations approximately. All cores were at great distances from each other. No doubt, this place was built with that in mind, preventing anyone from causing the cores to lose control of the geothermal power of the volcano. The Werdlem Empire must have passed through similar situations countless times, so they knew how to reduce risks. Simply put, Rean alone wasnʼt enough. If Rean wanted to make this place fly through the skies, he would need help.

Thatʼs when he thought about the Unidentified Werdlem Stones. Those who used normal Werdlem Stones had their cultivations in the hands of the Inquisition Hall and the Werdlem Empire. The Inquisition Hall could make them lose their ability to absorb and use Spiritual Energy at any moment. He had to use those with fake ones.

Of course, Rean had never gotten in contact with those experts before. However, he knew who might have an idea, and that was Karev.

Karev planned to flee the planet, and Rean knew he had been looking into many different possibilities. Rean called Karevʼs number and asked if he knew how he could contact any organization related to the cultivators with Fake Werdlem Stones.

Sure enough, Karev did make his own investigations and did manage to find some things about them during the years. He then passed that information to Rean, who used it to get in contact with those kinds of experts. There were supposed to be more of them, but many felt skeptical regarding Reanʼs origins. In the end, only Poponʼs group appeared of the more than fifty experts Rean tried out.

That wasnʼt a problem, though. Rean got in contact with many of them exactly because he expected most of them wouldnʼt show themselves. According to Sister Orb, she needed to be close to at least four of those cores simultaneously, preferably six. Reanʼs group has a total of eight members, which should be enough.

Last but not least, there was the trouble about how Sister Orb would be close to those cores at the same time. The solution proved to be quite simple, though. All Rean had to do was to modify the bracelets slightly so they would connect to each other, just like he did with his Communication Badges back in Lisan Universe. Inside the Celestial Soul Dimensional Realm, Sister Orb had a fairly simple server that she kept open so the bracelets could transmit signals between each other.

When asked how he intended to destroy the Inquisition Forging Hall, Rean told Popon and his group that as long as they had the bracelet, that would be enough. Nonetheless, Rean would need them to get close to the cores.

There was one core in each of the Sub-Branches of the Inquisition Forging Hall. Popon joined the Circuitry Formations and the Blacksmith Sub-Branches. Popon would be able to have one of his ʼdisciplesʼ stay in one of the Sub-Branches while he stayed on another. That would cover two cores.

As for the other four Sub-Branches, Rean would be gone to the Puppetry. He did build puppets for souls before using Circuitry Formations and his Forging Skills. Not to mention, he had the help of the experts from Earth. He was confident he could join this one as well.

That left the Seals, Talismans, and Resources Sub-branches. Of the last three, the Resources one should be the simplest. It was basically a Sub-Branch that worked with the distribution of resources and their acquisition. Popon could simply say he needed one of his disciples to go there to look for a few materials he needed. The ʼdiscipleʼ wouldnʼt need to be there for long—just enough time for Sister Orb to take control over the core.

The Seals and Talismans were the only problems. Rean knew pretty much nothing about Talismans and Seals when they were not related to Formation Runes. He could only get into the Inquisition Forging Hall first and have everyone look for a way to enter those two Sub-Branches. After Popon finished registering for the tests, Rean also stepped forward. ”Master, as we agreed, I will try to test for Puppets. Is that okay?”

Popon nodded. ”Go ahead. You always had a knack for those toys. Perhaps you can learn something.”
