As he didn't care about their fear towards it, Arthur simply thought about obtaining more of it.
If the local inhabitants of this world were this oblivious to the great importance of this ore, then he wouldn't find any problem at gaining more of it.
"I want you to draw the places where this ore is placed," he instructed before adding, "also if there are places recently have these ores falling over there then mark them as well."
Fox and Lara exchanged silent glances in weird ways. For people living in this world it seemed even talking about this ore brought bad omen to them.
"Are you sure?" Fox couldn't help but ask while Lara only shook her head in annoyance.
"Sure, as you can see I already have this ore for such a long time and didn't have any bad things happening to me," Arthur threw the rock in his hand in the air as if he was toying with it.
"Do you call what you have experienced so far a good fortune?" Lara couldn't help but remark, but Arthur totally ignored her.
He never thought what he experienced was bad fortune at all. At first he knew there were many secrets behind what happened to him.
But now, and after unveiling many of these secrets, he could say for certainty that he was having a very precious encounter.
One that cultivators of his old life would do anything and pay even the most precious to them to have such a chance.
As his answer was firm, the two couldn't sit back and not do what he asked. They took out large pieces of paper and started to work together to draw detailed maps.
Arthur stood on the side, silently watching what they were doing. Meanwhile the people of this settlement kept pouring inside the large number of portals and entered the garden world of Gege.
Arthur didn't need to tell Gege anything. Since her last evolution, this young girl seemed to grow up into a refined lady. She didn't need him to speak and explain things too much, not like before.
Arthur was confident that she would group the people according to their abilities. As for the mecha leader, Nara, he didn't send his clear orders to her yet.
Even after gaining these two leaders to train the mages inside the garden world, it would be a hasty move to retrieve Nara for now.
She was needed to supervise them for a while before they learn the basics and start operating in a smooth way.
If this happened in the outside world, then Arthur would be worried about the time lost in doing that. However he didn't have to worry, as inside his garden world time was on his side.
"Oh, we have a large number of good places to visit around here," as the maps the two finished kept piling up, Arthur started to gain a detailed view over this part of the world.
In fact he never thought about the presence of such a large number of settlements in this zone. In fact the maps the two drew were filled with many dark dots, referring to the settlements here.
They looked like they were packed together in a limited area. Just as Arthur was hoping to see the entire maps covered in such dark dots, he was destined to be disappointed.
"This… What are these big circles?" Arthur stopped the two as he asked, while pointing towards one map in his hand.
There the map didn't have dark dots anymore, only two remotely located small circles. The map seemed spotless except for these two circles, which gave Arthur the impression that the two had made a mistake here.
"These… are the circles representing the academies and clans surrounding here," Lara seemed to be surprised by Arthur's question. However, Fox wasn't. Arthur was an outsider to their world and didn't know such a thing.
"Forces here tend to gather up the people under their rule inside a huge circle of encirclement," Fox explained before taking the maps the two drew so far and spread them over the ground.
As he did so, Arthur finally could see the entire picture of this zone. In fact this was the nature of this world, its unspoken law.
What Arthur saw was a large number of dense settlements like the one he just conquered. These vast settlements were surrounded by small circles, entrapping them inside a huge area.
And as far as Arthur could tell, the base he just crushed before, the main base of his sworn enemy, seemed to be one of those circles.
Arthur penetrated his path towards here without knowing that! He just came from a place outside this zone and found his way, luckily, to here.
"This…" however and contrary to the expectations of the two in front of him, Arthur's eyes shone with pure excitement, "is simply a heaven's gift, hahaha!"
The two exchanged silent gazes while wondering if Arthur had a right mind or not.
The two didn't know, but for Arthur conquering such a zone wasn't that hard. In fact he now had a blueprint in conquering this world, provided that this rule applied to the rest of the world.
"Does your world have such an arrangement?" Arthur pointed towards the maps spread all over the ground and asked in great expectations.
"Well… these academies and clans can't be taken lightly though," Fox tried to warn him from being too greedy. However he was too late to do so.
Arthur already sat his gaze over this area. "So, in brief, to conquer this world I shouldn't let my boys run aimlessly around anymore," his face showed a vicious and sinister expression that baffled the two in front of him.
"This… Is simply perfect!" Arthur pointed towards the maps as he ordered, "draw more and make as many copies as you can."
"What about these?" Lara still couldn't get what he was thinking. She asked while pointing towards the white circles surrounding the large number of settlements inside.
"What else?" Arthur shrugged before turning his back to them, "I'll go and hunt them down! Do your job and don't mind about me," Arthur then flapped his wings and rose high up in the air.
'Gege… Compare the places of my armies to these maps,' Arthur said before adding, 'you can have the help of the system in that.'
'Ding! I believe this part of the world is destined to fall in your hands soon, congratulations on that!'
And the system's words made Arthur laugh while his laughs turned into terrifying roars spreading all over the world.
