Or else, and after spending all these tens of years, and if the same time passed in the outer world, then it was a great chance that I missed.
"This must not be the case," I felt that was a very perfect situation, one that I had missed if it was true. But for a reason, I felt it wasn't!
After all, I wasn't the only person linked to the outer universe in this quest. And that meant my effect on time would be quite limited, if not null at all.
It was totally a headache, and I stopped thinking about it once I arrived here.
The world was the same as the last time I visited it, with just much more people and forces here. The forces were still fighting brutally against the endless stream of monsters that kept coming from the ocean.
On the other side of all this, deep inside the mountains, there were many more settlements out there. I knew there were lots of people here with much more potential than the ones I was going to purchase from the Toranks.
But I never thought about using them. These people… They were truly the citizens of my kingdom. Using them for now would mean I'd exhaust my deep roots, the ones I spent lots of time and effort to get them, ones that I luckily got boosted by the weird phenomenon in this world.
I simply used my staff, took a wide tour around. Even the Hescos I left before got their numbers increased, and I didn't leave much to begin with.
I thought I left tens of thousands only behind, to find tens of millions now.
As for the monsters, they got lots of increase in their number, variations, and ferocity. The other training grounds were filled with lots of forces fighting and training, ready to get deployed.
"These forces must be evacuated first," I muttered, looking towards the direction of the portal I appeared at, "it's not enough to have one portal… It's time to solve this problem once and for all."
I knew my portal, the single one I opened each time I came here, wasn't going to be enough. It has a capacity after all. And if it was gigantic enough to satisfy my needs before, then this time it wasn't.
As I solved the problem of portals before, this time I did the same and went to the market.
Since the apocalypse entered its last stages, the market experienced lots of changes.
There were now high end goods getting sold there. Be it gears, weapons, weapon supplies and consumables, high grade materials, and even blueprints of many things… All were getting sold here.
But what I was looking for this time was a different kind of portal, one that I kept seeing since the early stages of the apocalypse; the inter-worlds portals, the portals that were on top of the cities and towns on my Earth.
These portals have the ability to go through the shackles of space, linking two distant worlds together.
These portals existed in front of my eyes for a long time already, but they were nowhere to be found. Yet when the market finally showed its final version, showing off all the great goods there, I was sure I'd find them.
And there I really found these portals.
"Interworld portal… Hmm… A single piece for the price of a hundred million coins? Let me check my coins…" I didn't check or even care about my coins for a long time already, enough to make me even forget about how many I got in my account.
And when I opened it, I found fifteen zeros in front of three numbers! Damn god! I never knew I was this wealthy!
Without any hesitation I bought ten thousand pieces of these, spending whatever it was of my coins, leaving behind not that much of my wealth.
But I didn't care about any of that. Coins lost their value a long time ago for me. And if I wanted, I could sell a few of the useless and high price items in my inventory.
Even in the worst case scenario, I'd go back, visit the places filled with other races, kill them all, and loot their inventories for coins.
I wasn't out of options when it'd come down to these coins. And right now it was better for me to spend them on something I truly needed.
These portals were just like the twin portal devices, but a lot bigger, and needed energy to get established.
"A piece of cake," for me, be it energy, price, coins, anything like these was a piece of cake. I started to roam the world, establishing the first half of these portals all over the places filled with my experienced and veteran armies.
I even went towards the pocket world, and there I found lots of forces waiting for me. These forces were much stronger as they got their cultivation bases open.
I left portals there, and at the deeper world where many training grounds were. I went to check over the monster zone, met my little Qi who looked much taller than before.
This kid… It has grown much bigger and fatter since the last time I saw it. It must have eaten lots of other monsters to reach such a scale.
After checking over everything here, I didn't forget to link these training grounds with the other training grounds at the surface world.
Then after doing all this, I returned back to the new world, established the other halves of the portals, left a message over to Lily explaining things over to her.
[So you want me to withdraw everything? Bring them here? I planned to let them train the forces you'll soon have]
[You didn't see that place, it grew out of control] I sighed, [We need to evacuate at least eighty percent of the total forces there, to make room for other forces to arrive at]
