The fact that many records of what this city was and what it was capable of being lost hit Walker hard. He wanted to gain as much knowledge as possible. But even using the all around appraisal when he saw it was useless since he was just given the basics. Corrupted mana, corrupted undead, and more powerful dangers hiding within. It wasn't enough to be able to attack comfortably.
"Where was this city before? Where did it fall and stay for years and years?" That Was the solution that Current had come up with. Searching the location of where this city had been might yield some good information. It was a smart move since they had to gain something before attempting to follow the corrupted city in to the ocean or getting back to Genesis and boosting their forces.
"The location is abandoned because of the remnants of war. We do not even attempt to tread those places. The plains that were there are now littered with magical craters, shards of risen stone, and even lingering magical skills that have caused deaths in the past. Even some weapons there are still active. That is also to go with the active rune formations we can not even begin to research to remove."
Fel spoke carefully. He was clearly the angel with the most information because of his previous knowledge gathering within the Fel empire territory. Now that they would be united, he had to get over his distaste for sharing it. Especially since it meant that he might gain stronger allies and learn more from genesis by being more open. That was very tempting to a curious mind.
"You should not think yourself all knowing when it comes to the sacred lands of our people. I have kept half of those borders secure for longer than you have. For many more years. We know of multiple rune formations along the trails carved by monsters that will allow or halt anyone entering from the Rize territories." This was just a basic rebuttal since Rize did not want to be pushed back.
The two angels that had taken their empire's names clearly had been at one another's throats for longer than Walker needed to know. But it was true that the one going by Rize was older and would have more information from years of delving in to such an area. The knowledge could save many lives as the group tried to get answers.
"You forget that we have more unique soldiers. The trap makers and trap hunters are the best of the best. You did not allow your people to explore such systems. They were unable to become strong enough for you to truly enter an area."
"Even when you failed, we succeeded in making it through certain areas. I promise you, the Fel empire soldiers were made to explore these areas." Fel was sure that he had won. Walker and many others just gritted their teeth seeing that the two elders of the angels. The grand pure angels as they were called, were acting like children yet again.
"Wait, speaking of special skills, what do you have for spatial images and what are they capable of?" Su broke her calm expression and spoke out. Her words rang louder than the two angels arguing and trying to one up each other. But Walker grasped what Su had caught on to right away.
"We do not have much for spatial mages within genesis, but we have knowledge. I can use a high spatial storage and that influences those around me to possibly gain a spatial affinity or the same skill. But if you have spatial mages, we might be able to get those with better rune knowledge than anyone here from Genesis. We might even be able to make travel between the two continents possible. You might not know this, but the oceans are incredibly dangerous. So much so that our ships were lucky to get here."
Walker's addition to what Su had said made both the elder angels and many of the angels in the embassy halt their thought process. They had expected this battle against the corrupted city to take months to prepare for. If so, they didn't know what dangers they would face or what consequences would come out of all this.
"We have spatial mages and we have rough spatial runes! I can order them to come here immediately. We can begin more research. You can add what you like. If you have any information at all-"
"You are like a cat jumping for a fish! It only took a few words to bend you to their will. They are allies now, but they can easily control you research loving fools. If it wasn't just the differences in purity of mana, it would be the differences in your madness to our calmness." Rize was sure that he had the right mind here. The Fel angels were too caught up in their research to realize what they were giving away.
"Who cares!? You are for the purity of mana and hiding away your knowledge. We seek it. Just as Genesis said, we are two sides of one coin. While you hoard and make libraries, we will fill them." such a statement was proof of the potential for adapting from the Fel angel side of things. It would be amazing to see them change so easily. But for now, it was greed for knowledge that motivated them. But it wouldn't be a problem in a way.
"If the spatial mages and us can work on some rune formation and use some scrolls I have that can teleport things or people…well, we could go to Genesis. You could all have healers, resources, and knowledge. The mage tower will be accessible which has various elemental magic knowledge. We have libraries being built that can be joined with the libraries here. And your ancestors' ruins will be closer to you." Walker boosted what the benefits were.
Naturally, there were many other benefits. The benefits that living breathing people of other races could hand the angels. But it was also a way for them to open their eyes and minds to more. They would see the union of different races that they had never witnessed before. A truly enhancing experience.
"Yes, we would share what we have and you can share what you have. From this point on, why don't you two worry about unifying your empires. The royal dragons can oversee it as the third party that would act impartially. Terron and Ignus are both able to stand as that force. The other royal dragons might also wish to hear about any dragon ruins you know of. In return, they might enlighten you about their massive wealth of elemental knowledge and history."
Seeing that all the royal dragons appreciated the fact that Walker had remembered the ancient dominator dragon ruins, he smiled a little wider. They could take their positions above many others because of the power which played to their pride. In turn, the angels would be able to rely on that power to keep each other from going right back to their old ways. Especially since Ignus's hard head would not allow them to stray from the topics at hand.
"It will be a full day before we can rush any spatial mages out of hiding and to you. We will have it done. In turn, I will be the first to send my angel representatives to Genesis." Fel was quick to grasp this chance.
"The only way you would do that is over my dead body. I will send an equal representative. The two will balance one another until one angel is able to stand at the top of our empire's unity." the Rize representative angel clearly saw the potential treachery in the Fel angel's statement to send someone and countered it. But it was the right move for equality.
"That leaves us with time to recover and start our own preparations, right? A lot of our forces are tired and very worn down. But they all got much stronger. We also need to get Scylla, Alma, and well, literally everyone else up to speed." Gil was joking a little as he realized just how hard it would be for the party to split up and get everyone on the same page. Then on top of that rested and prepared yet again.
While it was just a statement that they were tired, it was a tiredness that was deep in their bones. They had not ceased moving for some time. Their higher levels and everyone else's level increases only did so much at this point. Now they needed to properly rest or they would suffer the consequences that came with not stopping. Constant battles. And even more, the constant drama of emotions.
