Is that a Wisp?

Krune and the Seamstress began to work on a boat that would allow them to travel the long journey. Using the maps on their tablets, they took the scale of their Secondary Landmass as reference and determined the distance they had to travel to reach the place Gehen was most active around.

Of course, it wasn't just because he was the only other King active in Layer 3. The real reason had been the fact that Gehen had been successful in taking control of a Tertiary Landmass, making it the prime landmark for humanity to take shelter.

And considering a Tertiary Landmass had a radius of 500 kilometers, it was insanely huge. With that, they were curious as to how Gehen would develop it. Looking at the map, they soon realized his intentions.

He had chosen a location where there were numerous Secondary Landmasses surrounding the Tertiary Landmass. On top of that, they were further surrounded by numerous Primary Landmasses.

They occupied a massive area that he picked off one by one, conquering all the Primary Landmasses first, followed by the Secondary Landmasses. It seemed that he recruited all the people that headed towards his land after receiving the notification.

Plus, it was very well apparent that Gehen had used them all to conquer one Secondary Landmass after another. Judging by how he even managed to conquer the Tertiary Landmass in the end, it seemed like he was well-received by the populace to garner a massive following.

So no matter what, Krune and the Seamstress planned to visit it first and see the state of things. If it was really good, they planned to leave Solare there for him to have an adventure of his own.

It wasn't like they bore any animosity towards Gehen. After all, his actions allowed them to develop considerably and obtain their respective active abilities.

Krune and the Seamstress spent a month creating a massive boat. They repurposed all the Rope Bush King wood used in the cages to create the hull of the ship, increasing the area within it. Unlike before, where Krune planned to keep it within the two oceans, he now designed it to be more like a submarine that would only surface for air.

It was better this way as they could speed up even further. After all, they had Motor Fish Emperors to row the boat. While constructing it, it was time for the cold currents in the ocean. With that, the number of predator fishes had increased in the ocean.

Krune used his Sonic Radar passive ability to detect a couple of Sonic Radars in the ocean. With the help of the Seamstress, they captured the two Sonic Radars. And soon after, Krune managed to upgrade his passive ability, Sonic Radar, to the limit, beaming with glee after that.

Though, while surfing through the map in the tablet, Krune noticed a patch of green that had been expanding at a rapid pace. It seemed to be the race that had spilled out of their respective landmass.

Until now, all races had only been living in their respective territories, unable to leave it for natural reasons. It was just like their Secondary Landmass, where the pupae were unable to scale to the top while the wings of the adult version would melt the moment they touched the cloud layer.

So, similar barriers would have been placed among all the Landmasses, preventing the native race from expanding beyond their territory. And now, a race had indeed done such a thing.

Upon touching the area dominated by them, a name popped up, causing Krune to frown.

Monster Gecko!

It immediately made him realize that he was the reason they had done so in the first place. Before he left the Primary Landmass, he had caused the death of quite a lot of Monster Geckos in one place. And among them were two Mutants and one King. Most of the normal Monster Geckos were also sucked into the bone trees alive.

As for what he did, the bone trees had sprouted out of them while they were alive. So, as time passed, the bone trees bore fruits numbering hundreds. All of them were capable of birthing Mutants.

There were two massive fruits among them to birth Kings and finally a colossal fruit to birth an Emperor. There was a good chance the oldest of the remaining three Monster Gecko Kings must have consumed it and managed to evolve into an Emperor.

Using the intelligence of an Emperor, the cause of the incident and the resultant emergence of the fruits, it should have figured out the trick to the bone trees. After that, it would have changed their traditions as the Emperor and would have worked in order to increase their population.

Because of this, and the fact that the Monster Geckos had innately high fertility, they quickly snowballed in population, spilling out into the seas as they occupied other nearby Primary Landmasses.

"This was my fault." Krune sighed, realizing that the Monster Geckos would have killed a lot of people. If people attempted to clear the Primary Landmasses and got themselves killed, then their deaths were of no concern to him.

But since the Monster Geckos were going around killing people, and since he was the reason they obtained the opportunity to do so, Krune felt he was responsible. Though, he had zero intentions to play a hero and annihilate the Monster Gecko race.

Krune looked around, gazing at the Motor Fishes and the Tongue Fishes, thinking of a plan. "That should be enough. It seems Gehen wishes to play King. I'll gift him something to help with that."

Krune finished constructing the boat that was almost a ship now, creating enclosed regions within for the Motor Fish Emperors to stay. They had a continuous flow of water, so this way, they would be able to propel the water easily. Also, since they were secure within the ship's hull, they couldn't be targeted by any predator fishes.

The Seamstress had installed some coral reef in the place that would continue to absorb the healing effect in the ocean water and condense it into a Water Essence, allowing the Motor Fish Emperor to feed on it to survive.

This way, they would be automated, no longer requiring to be fed manually. She had installed enough corals within its chamber to keep it well fed. She had experimented with it before to see the Motor Fish Emperors were content with it.

Krune then created a whistle using the Rope Bush King's wood, training the Motor Fish Emperors with it so that when blown into the whistle, they would row the fish to the source. Once they reached the landmass and arrived at a Checkpoint Turtle, they planned to gift the ship to Solare.

To avoid anyone from stealing it, they had enacted such a plan. This way, the ship would be safe deep within the ocean and would only surface when Solare summons them forth. The whistle was created by using the Helper Whistle and Krune's Sonic Radar for reference.

With that, it worked exceptionally well. When tested, they determined that the range was almost 20 kilometers since the sound the whistle produced was in the ultrasonic range. The Motor Fish Emperors also had superior sensory range.

There were four such chambers for the Motor Fish Emperors within. Inside were two males and two females, respectively.

Krune then attached a separate container to the ship, which he stored four Mutant Motor Fishes and four Mutant Tongue Fishes. There were two males and two females in each container. He was planning to gift them to Gehen to help the humans against the Monster Geckos since he knew their threat levels very well.

Since both the Motor Fish and Tongue Fish were species that reached the Mutant status upon maturity and were tameable, they were perfect for humanity. The Motor Fishes were best used for traveling, while the Tongue Fishes were best hunters with the same mobility, given their tongues.

Once he was done with everything, Krune began to destroy all the bone trees. It wasn't possible to destroy them through normal means, though they wilted while condensing Blood Essences. So, Krune used that to destroy them all, ensuring not even a single bone tree remained behind. He also destroyed Paddle, the boat that he hadn't touched for the past decade.

He split the Blood Essence Crystals evenly between him and the Seamstress before turning around to look at the Motor Fishes and the Tongue Fishes under him. There were only four other Tongue Fishes since they were created recently.

As for the Motor Fishes, there were too many. Sighing, Krune began to kill them all, reaping Godly Points continuously as a result.

As for the Seamstress, she too killed all the Mutant Great Dippers that she had been rearing. Now that they were leaving, they harvested everything. They first sent Solare into the boat after bringing it into the ocean, preventing him from seeing the bloody spectacle below.

After killing all the Motor Fishes, Krune looked at the Godly Points he had amassed, checking the ranking to see that he had comfortably attained first place with a staggering 3372 Godly Points.

At second place was the Seamstress with 3301 Godly Points. Their harvest was stellar, the fruits of their efforts for almost 18 years. And now, they have reaped all the benefits.

After everything was done, Krune looked at the rows and rows of rock pillars before him that were covered in blood now. In seventeen plus years, they had done significant changes to the place.

Upon seeing the bloody atmosphere, Krune shook his head, heading into a cave as he slugged a backpack around him. In the backpack, there was a sealed section consisting of three rows. The first row consisted of the Rope Bush seeds, numbering around a hundred.

As it was of low priority, he only took a hundred with him while the Seamstress took the rest with her, numbering almost four digits.
