Chapter 568 568:- Savannahclaw City
"So, can someone please explain what we are doing here and why we are in disguise?" Sasha asked the most obvious question. It wasn't just her who wanted to ask this question. Julia, Lara, Riya, and Lilith, all had the same questions in their minds. "Trust me, this disguise is for our own good," Aditya replied with a smirk. "I don't think a disguise was necessary. Right now we are in a different continent, one that is very far from our own continent. I don't think anyone here would even recognize us." Riya felt that this disguise wasn't needed at all. Who would recognize them here? And even if someone recognizes them, what could possibly happen? The answer was nothing. Riya felt that Aditya was being too cautious.
In the face of absolute power, even if they were recognized, no one would have the courage to attack them as they had the best and the strongest cultivator in the six continents. With Aditya here who could possibly even think of attacking them?
"Actually this disguise is going to help us keep a low profile while we are on this journey. In the eyes of the public, Aditya is currently in his own empire. What do you think would happen if the public were to learn that the Emperor of the Istarin Empire is away from his empire?" Hearing this question Riya became quiet. Knowing that the Emperor was away, there could be many people who had dark intentions toward the Empire, to take some action from the darkness. A big example of that would be the League of the black Tomb. The mysterious organization has been targeting Aditya and the Istarin Empire. Everyone finally understood why they were in disguise. It had been more than 10 minutes since the group came to the beast continent. Compared to other continents the beast continent was very underdeveloped, and the economy of the continent was very poor. Unlike other continents that had various kingdoms, empires, and factions, in the beast continent, there were tribes and clans. Unlike the first Elven Empress who had been able to unite all the tribes, and all the clans in the land of elves to form the celestial terrain Empire, in the beast continent, no force till now has been able to unite all the clients and all the tries to form one massive empire. Small and big tribes and big clans were always constantly fighting with each other. This is one of the reasons why so many foreign powers have been able to conquer parts of the beast continent throughout its history. But nowadays, except for a few powers that control very small parts of the continent, no one else controls the beast continent other than the native tribes and clans. The Beast continent always has been severely lacking in resources. Most of the continent is one big desert, and the rest of the continent is a land of endless grass; one big Prairie. The native tribes and clans that live in the beast continent, have long adapted to the harsh climate environment of this continent. The tribes and clans are very skilled at surviving with whatever they have at their disposal. Most stripes either realize on hunting for magic, animals or raising a few certain types of magic animals. "So where are we going now?" Asked Julia. This was the first time for everyone coming to this continent. Not even the goddess of wealth had ever come to this continent before. Alicia only sent her subordinates to come to this continent if there was anything that she needed or her business needed.
If she had to explain what kind of place the beast continent was then she would call this continent of wasteland because of the lack of resources. Compared to the other continents. The beast continent was indeed like a Wasteland.
"I will tell you later. For now, let's find a desert ship to buy for us and then we can leave this City." Currently, Aditya and the girls had come to a City called the Savannahclaw. This was one of the only cities in the beast continent that was developed enough to have a teleportation array.
The city was built around Oasis. The city wasn't located that far from the sea. The Savannahclaw was only 11 km away from the sea. Being Located so close to the sea and having a supply of fresh water, just these two facts made this city very popular and was enough to stimulate its economic growth. The Savannahclaw city had a population of 1.2 million. The city was under the control of a certain powerful tribe. 90% of the population of the city was foreigners and travelers. Travelers and merchants would come to this city.
Travelers who were traveling would stop here to restock their supplies and continue their journey towards the other parts of the beast continent. The local population of the city survived by relying mostly on fishing. Due to the harsh climate, Agriculture wasn't possible. So the main food of Savannahclaw city was mostly fish and meat of the magic animals that had been hunted. But in this desert, even the quantity of such magic animals was very low and they are extremely hard to track down. The foreign merchants from other continents brought vegetables and other goods with them to sell here. But the prices of vegetables and other foreign goods are too high and too expensive for normal folks to consume on a regular basis. In the Beast Continent, the vegetable was something that everything wanted but was available in very low quantity. Hence, vegetables were something that was only meant to be consumed on special occasions or only the rich and elites could consume it on a regular basis.
"That reminds me, Riya, as the goddess of Nature, can you turn this entire City and the areas around the City completely green?" Julia was curious if Riya could do it. The temperature was very high. Even though it was supposed to be spring, it was a hot sunny day. The sun was right above their heads. Fortunately, they were cultivators and they had resistance to cold and hot weather. But having resistance didn't mean that the girls were comfortable in such a climate. It was the opposite of comfortable for them. And since Lara was the only one in the group who wasn't a cultivator, it was extremely hot for her. She had been sweating a lot ever since they came here. She also has been panting and drinking a lot of water. "It will be difficult for me to do something so big. But if I rest a few times and recover my Mana then I can do it." Riya was very confident in her ability. By blessing this land, she could turn this desert into a fertile land where agriculture would be possible. She could also make springs and fill wells with water. "Lara, are you alright?" Aditya asked Lara in a concerned tone. It had been not more than 15 minutes since they came to Savannahclaw City. And due to the intense heat, Lara didn't look so well. Her whole body was soaked in sweat. Huff!! Huff!!
"Husband, Lara isn't feeling well." Lara weakly leaned against Aditya's chest and said while panting. She was feeling really hot. 'I should have thought of a solution for Lara before starting this journey.' Aditya blamed himself for being careless. As her husband, he should have known that this would happen to her if he brought her here. Seeing her like this, Aditya felt very guilty. It wasn't just Aditya who was concerned about her. All the girls looked equally worried about Lara's condition. "Should we take a break somewhere and head out at night?" Julia worriedly suggested. During night time, the temperature is going to drop and it won't be that hot anymore. And using the starry sky, it would be possible for them to travel. "Let me help...!!!" Riya stepped forward with the intention of summoning rain. But Aditya was already one step ahead. Crack!!!
Hearing the rumbling sound, everyone stopped and looked up. It wasn't just the girls but everyone in the city looked up. Under their astonished and shocked gazes, dark clouds blocked the sunlight within a few seconds. The whole sky was covered in dark clouds. Strong winds started blowing from the east. Patter!!! Patter!!!
"It's raining." Aditya made it rain. It started raining intensely. Within a few seconds, all of their bodies were soaked in rainwater. "Are you feeling well?" Aditya asked while hugging Lara. "Thank you, Husband," Lara said as she leaned against Aditya's chest. "It's raining...!!!" Someone looked at the sky and said with a smile. "But who did...!!!" Another person wondered. "I don't know who made it rain but we should be grateful to that person for making it rain. Today was especially too hot." A third person commented as he allowed the rain to fall on his body. Everyone around the whole city was in joy and was celebrating due to the rain. Rain meant fresh water for the native people. There were many people who already had started collecting rainwater with the intention of storing it for future use. ----------------
