Nameless King

Chapter 228 The Treaty And The War

Edena and Lui Bu agreed to Wain's proposal, and in a few minutes, they were sitting at the same table drinking hot tea. Black Rabbit and Frigus also joined them.

The five of them drank tea. Edena preferred black tea, as did Wain and Black Rabbit. Lui Bu and Frigus chose green tea.

"Okay, now let's get down to business. First, we all need to get acquainted. My name is Nameless, and I'm in charge here." Wain said calmly, taking a sip of tea.

Lui Bu and Edena nodded. They were still wary, for, at this table, they were the weakest. Anyone could have attacked them and killed them quickly. Frigus and Black Rabbit acted friendly, but they did not hide their powerful auras.

"This is Frigus. He's in charge here while I'm gone. He's in charge of all the monsters and the fighting. I am not a good commander in chief and prefer to fight alone. However, you don't have to worry about that. In case of war, you will be the last ones to fight."

Wain turned and said, "This Mimic, his name is Black Rabbit. He distributes fruits and concoctions as well as manages their preparation. He's quite sociable, and sometimes it's terribly annoying."

"What?!" Black Rabbit exclaimed, but no one paid him any attention.

"What's our main task?" Lui Bu asked.

"To do alchemy. You can use all the resources in this Void. The monsters will help you. Before we talk about your requests and the necessary resources, I want to know you better. Why is your Spirit, double?" Asked Wain turning to Lui Bu.

Lui Bu frowned. He didn't want to talk about it but decided to answer, "I don't know. My Spirit has been like this since birth. If I could change it, I would have gotten rid of it long ago. I have nothing more to say."

Wain nodded and looked at Edena, "Why is your module damaged?"

"This sometimes happens when there is a malfunction during production. This defect is not detected immediately but only after several years. People like me are social outcasts."

"Is there any way to fix it?"

"Yes, but for me, it is impossible. I need a complete system upgrade at the nanite level to fix this defect. It costs too much, I don't have ten lifetimes to save up for something like that, but there is another option."

"What is it?"

"The purity of my blood must exceed 50%. Then the nanites will evolve and rebuild into a more advanced form. I'll shed my skin like a snake and be reborn."

"That sounds more realistic. What percentage of blood purity do you have?"

Edena's gaze darkened, and she murmured, "Only 3%."

"Oh, that's really low. Honestly, I thought your blood purity was in the 40-49% range. In that case, I might be able to solve your problem."

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

The Ring of Damned glowed brightly, and a vial of crimson fluid appeared in Wain's hands.

"With this, I can increase your blood purity by 10%, provided your blood purity is less than 50%. Otherwise, the effectiveness drops considerably."

When Edena and Lui Bu saw this vial, they trembled. The reason was that Wain did not fully realize how valuable the item was in his hands.

This vial had been given him as a reward for a test. He had won not because of his strength but because he had decided to act before anyone else.

For those whose blood purity was low, this vial was priceless.

At that moment, Edena and Lui Bu realized that the man in the blue cry and mask sitting in front of them had power. In their minds, no one else could possess such a thing.

"I want to ask you, in theory, can you create something like this?" Wain asked.

Edena and Lui Bu did not know what to say. In their minds, a vial of blood essence was an incredible treasure, but now they were being asked to create it themselves.

"But, can we...? Isn't that blood essence...?" Edena muttered.

"You don't have to worry so much. You should think of this vial as an ordinary potion or reagent. Of course, it is not easy to create, but it is possible. I realize that your skills are not sufficient at the moment, so I ask, is there any chance that in the future you might be able to create vials with the essence of blood?" Asked Wain, slowly rocking the vial.

"That's obvious. We can." Confidently said Lui Bu, "Vials of blood essence are a real treasure, but most of the time it is not a natural phenomenon, but artificially created. We need to conduct experiments and increase our knowledge and mastery."

"AHAHAHA, good, I like your unwavering fighting spirit. Now let's move on to the most important thing of all, resources."

Edena and Lui Bu nodded.

"There are only two zones in this Void, and a total of three resources are growing. Black Rabbit will show you everything. I'm not going to lie, these resources are not enough for large-scale alchemical experiments. What's more, there's no proper equipment or tools, and there's only ice, snow, and sand around."

"So how are we going to work under these conditions? I mean, it's still better than nothing, but we're not likely to accomplish much this way." Lui Bu muttered.

"I agree." Added Edena, "I don't mean to be rude, but if you want to see results from us, we need better conditions."

"Of course, I completely understand you and am willing to offer any support. I think we need to address the small number of resources first, am I right?" Asked Wain.

"Yes." Lui Bu nodded, "However, we don't need dozens of Voids with different resources."

"Hmm? What do you mean?"

"I know that every Void has resources, depending on the owner's soul power and zone rank. They have special effects and are filled with energy, but not necessarily all the ingredients have to be like that. Especially when we first start doing alchemy."

"Also, We need to grab a Void with lots of vegetation to start being productive. Everything from tree bark and leaves to flowers, cones, and insects will do. We need a dense forest area with extensive fauna." Said Edena.

"Edena, you're being too bold. To seize the Void is to start a war and sacrifice dozens of warriors." Abruptly said, Lui Bu.

"Huh, it's okay. It's a good idea. Moreover, I've wanted to increase my holdings for a long time." Proclaimed Wain.

The monsters had already explored over 95% of the area by this point, so Wain was ready to take the next step. Moreover, he had found alchemists, and now he could begin to ramp up the pace.

"Are you serious?" Lui Bu asked.

"Of course, I don't want to brag, but at the moment, I am one of the strongest representatives of the First Chronicle. All you have to do is work and try to succeed. I'll take care of the rest. After this talk, we'll choose a suitable Void for an attack. Before that, I want to hear your other wishes."

"Good, then I won't be modest. I want the full support of monsters that can be useful to Lui Bu and me during the experiments."

"That's not a problem."

"Likewise, once we have the necessary resources to begin the work, we will need equipment. My methods and Lui Bu's are radically different, but I think we can work together. Am I right?" Edena asked.

"Of course." Lui Bu nodded, "I think it will be an interesting experience. We are two races with the best alchemists. Even separately, we can achieve amazing results, but perhaps working together will exceed even our wildest expectations."

"Good, I like that. Edena, did you have something to offer?"

"Yes, I need my race's equipment, just as Lui Bu needs his race's equipment. For that, you will have to attack Voids, whose owners are inhabitants from our worlds."

"Hmm, bottom line, for you to have the resources and equipment, I need to grab three Voids, well that's no problem. Right now, we'll pick the first Void." Suddenly Wain said.

Edena and Lui Bu were surprised. They didn't expect Wain to act so quickly.

Click.

Wain snapped his finger, and the ice beneath them turned to ink. All five of them were in the special area for the owner of Void.

All but Wain were in the area for the first time. They were amazed to see hundreds of stars slowly floating around them. It was beautiful and mesmerizing.

'Hmm, they need a forest, that makes sense. There are plenty of plants and other natural resources. They can make something stunning even from simple leaves and flowers with some knowledge.

From what I understand, Elves and Plants live in the forests most of the time. Most likely, I will attack one of them.' Wain thought.

He couldn't know in advance which race owned the enemy Void, nor which territories were included in that Void, but he could guess from the name.

Wain didn't know if the owner of Void could name a zone, but so far, he hasn't had that feature.

"Nameless, are you sure of your actions? It's certainly a good thing for Edena and me, but I'm worried it might cost you too much." Lui Bu asked.

"No need to worry." Suddenly said Frigus, "There will be no losses."

"All right, enough talk. Better to see once than hear a hundred times." Said Wain and headed for the stars.

Everyone spent the next ten minutes in silence. They waited to see what decision Wain would make. He was carefully choosing the right Void.

'Hmm, Edena and Lui Bu are just at the beginning of their journey now. They're right. They don't need a lot of rare and energy-filled plants. Something simpler, but in large quantities, will do. It should also be a forest or a similar location.' Wain thought.

He wanted to attack a large area, but the locations in that area should also be suitable.

'After I fought in the Arena, the World of Darkness awarded me Rank-A. I'm not sure if I should attack an area with the same rank, as it might be too risky.'

The rank of an area depended primarily on the strength of the creatures inhabiting it.

Resources, their quality, and numbers resulted from the rank increase, but warriors and their strength were the cause. Also, the owner of Void influenced a lot of things.

As a result, three Voids were hovering before the Wain. Wain felt that each of them was a suitable option, and he had to make a final choice.

"Edena, Lui Bu, come here. Which Void do you think would be the best option? Look only at the title. Everything else is irrelevant to you. After you make your decision, I'll declare war right away." Wain said seriously.

The alchemists nodded and approached him. They thought for a while, then together pointed to a green-purple star with a blue glow.

"Good choice said Wain."

[Magical Forest of Azure Rivers

Owner: Sharp-Eared Traveler

Size: Medium

Chronicle: First

Rank: C ]

Wain smiled contentedly. The forest was the perfect zone, so was the size and rank appropriate, but most of all, Wain was pleased with the zone owner's nickname.

"Sharp-Eared Traveler, the owner of this Void, is definitely an Elf. This is going to be interesting. Lui Bu, Edena, go back inside. Black Rabbit will show you around, you don't need to get involved in the war, but before you do, I have something to show you."

Wain walked over to Lui Bu and Edena and put his hands on their foreheads. They were surprised but did not resist. Then Wain's Seal of Darkness glowed brightly, and his eyes sparkled.

Some energy passed through his hands and headed toward Lui Bu and Edena. They had just come to this Void and were not yet full-fledged residents of this place.

Wain decided to fix that and show them the effects that all warriors of this area receive.

Whoooooooosh.

"What is this...?" Shocked, Lui Bu muttered, feeling his strength increase considerably.

"This is only a small part of what the future holds for this place."

"This is unbelievable..." Mumbled Edena.

"Yes, our leader is incredible." Black Rabbit added.

"Nameless, I think it's time to attack. The monsters and I will help you in any way we can. We will not turn back, even in death." Said Frigus.

He realized that Wain didn't want to tell Lui Bu and Edena his name and show them his face yet, so he called him by an alias.

Frigus was ready for battle. At the moment, he was the strongest in Frozen Land and wanted to sprinkle his swords in the blood of his enemies.

The other monsters had the same opinion. Wain's orders forbade all fighting, but sometimes they wanted to let their emotions run wild and engage in a bloody and brutal battle.

"Of course, it will be the same as the last time. When the portal opens, I will go forward, and you will lead the monsters. Be careful. It's Rank-C Void. We must win without losses. Otherwise, it can't be called a full-fledged victory."
