Chapter 1066 Let's Train!
"You need to scout the area we are going to invade, and also try to recruit more masters to our cause."
"Can we spread the word out? Ask the help of the entire world?" Sloth suddenly asked, making everyone wait for William's decision in impatience.
"Why not? It's not like we are fighting this for our gains," William shrugged, "let anyone wanting to come to hop in," he fixed his eyes over the newly joined members of his guild, realising that many masters deserve a chance to decide for themselves.
"Cool! But what shall we say to them?" Sloth asked again, "What is our enemy exactly?"
Even if heard them speaking, he still couldn't get a head or tail about the enemy they were supposed to meet.
"Let me tell you this, the world knows the dark masters and monsters, but these are just pawns in the hands of truly formidable and much scarier enemies," William knew it was slightly hard to explain the concept of Transformers and Mutants to Sloth and others.
"That…" and as he expected, his words left nothing but confusion and doubt in everyone.
"Let it be much simpler then," he sighed, "tell the world we are going against the monsters and dark masters' leaders, got it?"
"That's much better," Panther laughed excitedly, "let's go, we have only ten days to wait. And the distance between here and Lara's city will take five days with the fastest master to cross…"
"Speaking about that, why not use these?" William took things out, many sealed boxes actually. When everyone looked in doubt towards him, he slowly explained the value of things inside.
"Portal cores?!!!" This was the same shocking comment everyone here muttered to themselves.
"These are connected to Lara's city," William explained, "I got them to use these for my newly established guild branches all over the continent, but got no time to spread them over yet. Their other half is already installed there at the portal zone, and so all you need to do is to install these here…"
He explained in great detail the method to use these cores. He learnt this from Lara, and right now he found them more useful to help this city fix the glaring issue it had.
He knew Lara and other leaders back there wouldn't be happy about doing this, but he already owned these portal cores. And it wasn't like he gave them out of the blue. This situation was quite critical, and he needed all the help he could get.
He knew he was going against that sly monster and other transformers, but that didn't mean they wouldn't face hordes of dark masters or monsters.
Everyone went excited by this and went as fast as they could to install these portal cores. Panther promised to establish a portal zone here, one that was like the one at Lara's city.
William knew it was going to be much smaller, but it was going to solve the main and biggest problem this city had.
"Lara won't be happy about that, hahaha!" Anjie laughed, making him a bit speechless.
"Why are you happy?!"
"Nothing, hahaha!" she kept laughing, not bothered by the weird gazes she got from him.
"I'm going back then," Sloth suddenly said, "I have to meet with the king."
"My father?!!"
"What for?!!"
The two of them asked at the same moment, and Sloth evilly grinned.
"You said it, the ones behind this scheme are the same ones who tried to destroy our capital and kingdom. It's just fair for us to have a chance for a payback, right?"
William could tell just from the look over Sloth's face what he truly intended to do. "Don't tell me you are going to mobilise the entire kingdom's army here," he rolled his eyes, and Sloth didn't say anything, simply turned around and left.
"Make sure to be ready in ten days," he said to William and Anjie, "and expect something big from my king."
"If my father is going to let the kingdom's main army join, then we can win this!" Anjie got hyped by that, and William knew her opinion was based on other reasons than just logic.
"Let's hope so," yet even with all this, he could tell the incoming battle was going to be so damn hard, "let's go, we need to train."
"Train? No, we need to sleep!"
"Girl! We slept long enough…" he was speechless for a few seconds, and when he tried to speak, he got interrupted by her. She placed a finger on his lips as she slowly said:
"You slept, but I did not. So let's go there and rest. Don't forget, you just came back from the doorsteps of death, something that must have left a toll on your body and spirit."
"But… I'm totally fine!!!" William was speechless, but in the end, he had to listen to her words and follow her towards the underground fox lair, before resting for hours by her side.
She literally threw her body over his, closed her eyes, and slept. Every single time he tried to walk away, she'd clutch at him, making it impossible for him to leave without waking her up.
"Phew! I finally got away," After five hours, he finally got the chance to escape from her without risking waking her up, "Girls… They are a real distraction for real men…"
He shook his head, before taking out a crystal and a candle. The first thing he did was to inspect his spirit power, and he was extremely shocked by the result he found.
"Wow! I am now in the mid-level of the high stage… That's awesome!" he couldn't believe himself, counting the tsunami of spirit power residing within the crystal many times just to be sure of this, "damn! I should have persisted a bit longer, wouldn't I have been at the pinnacle stage now?"
He regretted not lasting a bit longer back then, absorbing more of the Black Phantom's spirit power.
