Chapter 1625  Objectives II

"Lucas, if you wanted the battleground to be here, why didn't you say it from the start?" An Old man glared coldly at Lucas Dawson. "Which one of you old hermits will willingly come here with the thought of probably dying?" Lucas asked the man calmly. "Mind your words, boy." The Old man stood up, clearly angered by Lucas's words. "Am I wrong?" Lucas looked at the Old man, not feeling any fear even when facing someone that's well over ten thousand years older, "During the great war, we all know that there are some who didn't fight because they were afraid to die, and then there are the ones who joined the Gnomes to wipe us out, because they too were afraid to die." The faces of some of the Old men in the place turned cold, and the experts on their level could sense the pressure in the air due to the auras of multiple Half-G.o.d experts almost exploding out. "Lucas, what is the reason you brought us all here?" An Old man asked calmly. Lucas shrugged his shoulders and said, "I've said it before, so the Aurora continent will not be the battleground for this war."

"Lucas…" The Old man squinted his eyes.

Lucas threw a glance at him and just as he was about to speak, another expert stepped forward. He looked as young as Lucas, but he was hundreds of years older than he is.

"This isn't the time for this." The middle-aged man said, making the duo stop whatever they were doing.

Lucas looked at this man who looked to be the same age as he is, but he knew better. This was the Faction Leader of the Strongest Faction in the Aurora continent, he was not just the Faction Leader, he's also regarded as the strongest expert in the continent, also being the Teacher of two of the people regarded in the top ten strongest people in the continent. The man had a soft smile on his face, he took a glance at the Old man who took a seat from his gaze. "Lucas, it would've been better if you informed everyone here about your plans. This has put some of our brightest students in harm's way. Some of them have the potential to even break the chains, including your son, Grey Dawson." The man said to Lucas. Lucas looked at the man and said "My son is still here, and so are most of the top geniuses from my family."

"I don't want them to die, but they'll die either way. This is why we have to make the best of this opportunity and reduce the numbers of the Gnomes significantly." He added. The middle-aged man took a glance at Lucas, but didn't speak further, rather, he hinted for Lucas to follow him. Lucas sighed and followed the man away from this place, not just him, but his father as well. Both Grey's father and Grandfather were in this place. Even his mother's parents were here too. But given how Lucas and Martha started between the duo, Martha's parents weren't particularly close to Lucas, they too were staring at him with a cold expression, but seeing their daughter standing close to him, they didn't say anything. In a secluded place.

The middle-aged man looked at both Lucas and his father.

"Even a child knows there's another reason you brought all the top experts here, spit it out." The middle-aged man said calmly. Lucas looked at his father, and seeing him nod, he sighed and said, "My son infiltrated the Gnome world." A look of shock appeared on the face of the middle-aged man, he didn't expect this to be the reason they were all dragged here. In truth, he knew this was only a means of some sort of distraction, but he never expected that Lucas would actually trick not just the humans but the Gnomes as well, just because his son wanted to sneak into the Gnome world. "To do what?" The middle-aged man calmed himself down and asked. "Kill as many Sovereigns as he can." Lucas replied. The middle-aged man looked at Lucas suspiciously. 'How much can he be trusted?' Lucas asked his father telepathically. 'No one truly can be fully trusted. But I'm well aware of his hate for the Gnomes. Anyone old enough knows that he will do whatever it takes to kill the Gnomes.' Lucas's father replied. Lucas thought about it and took a deep breath, "As you know, the Gnomes want to kill my son at all costs. One of the reasons they willingly came in here was because they confirmed that he's here. I'm aware of the fact that they are still searching for him right now."

"Grey is a thorn on the side of the Gnomes because he can do something that makes them see him as a threat to their success." "What is that?" The middle-aged man asked curiously, looking at Lucas curiously. ….

While Lucas was under pressure from the multiple top experts of the Aurora continent for tricking them into the fake G.o.d's tomb. Grey and his friends were still in the Gnome world, doing what they could to help out. Grey was slowly getting a good foothold there, he was even been given a large mansion by the First and Second Princes due to his amazing work with apprehending a few people that were against them. Grey's mansion was close to the Palace, so he had the option of staying in the Palace, or his own place. "How are things with the First Prince?" Klaus asked while eating one of the amazing berry-like fruits he has in his possession. This place was a treasure vault for these rare fruits. In the Aurora continent, finding one of these fruits was extremely difficult, but in the Gnome world, it was practically accessible to most people due to its abundance. "He'll be dead within the next seven to ten days." Grey replied. "Isn't there another shakedown we can do? I'm starting to get bored." Klaus picked up another fruit, played with it before placing it in his mouth. "The damage from our last fight was too much, so it's understandable that the Princes want us to lie low for now." Grey didn't see anything wrong with them not doing anything. He has all the time in the world to improve his cultivation since he has nothing to do here. Since he came to the Gnome world, he has focused generally on his mental energy training, and the results have been magnificent. Training his mental energy wasn't something he had thought of doing, but being in a place like this, he felt genuinely blessed to have such an opportunity. "If you say so." Klaus replied. "Also, we really do need to lay low. The Second Prince is starting to be suspicious of the fact that we have never used our puppets. It's understandable that we're strong, but from all the battles we've had, even though we've tried to keep most of it under wraps, for some reason, he knows that we haven't really used our puppets since arrival." Grey added. "He's catching on?" Klaus didn't expect the Second Prince to be so sharp.

Grey nodded, "So it's best we calm down and make the most of this. Why don't you continue cultivating, you should push for the Third stage." "What about you?" "If I want to break through to the Third stage, I'll be there by now. I'm focused on training my mental energy." Klaus shrugged and went back to his previous state of just eating his fruits while not worrying about anything else. Grey accessed his body and his expression turned serious. 'My physical body is growing slower and slower now. It's almost impossible to improve it using normal means. I wonder if there's a place with powerful flames or water.' He thought to himself. Since he got to the Sovereign Plane, although he's still very strong physically, he noticed increasing his physical strength was getting harder and harder. It was almost as if his body was about to reach the limit, so there's no way for it to improve. Grey stood up and walked out of the mansion, heading in the direction of the Palace. This was a chance to train his body, and seeing how things were, he knew a normal training method wouldn't help improve his physical strength, so he wanted to try an extreme method. There are two choices, one of them is to train under a waterfall while the force of the water crashes heavily into his body, or he will jump into a volcano and refine his body with the flames. The Second Prince will know where the best waterfalls or volcanoes will be located, so he went in search of him. ….

The Palace. The moment Grey walked in, the eyes of the Second Prince sparkled as he said, "Right on time, you're just the man I was searching for."
