Hours passed and the night arrived.
All six of my clones are solving the formations, while I am looking for scenery, which is moving at a very fast speed.
I am looking at Nero, who is traveling quite fast and reaching close to the destination, and till now, he had not found something that will tell him that it is a trap.
All the signs pointed, it is not a trap, including the scarcity of the Grimm in that area. Nero is still quite a distance away from the exit; he will reach there in a few hours.
I had asked Nero to slow down and be cautious before turning toward the formation.
It is one tough formation, even with six clones and three times time dilution. It is not easy to solve, but I have to do it and I could do it. After more than a day of time inside, I have found a way to solve it.
It will take a few more hours, but it will be done, and then will come the time for revenge.
These bastards deserve everything that came in them. If I had the strength, I would have killed them in the most painful way possible, but here, I will have to depend on things.
Things that could kill me with them or not do anything at all, but I have to try it.
Seven hours passed, and Nero had reached the area where the gate and there were barely any Grimms. They are hiding, wanting for natives, but it did not look like officially set a trap.
These Grimms are just here because they want to kill some natives.
I could see the spatial crack, and it is big, and the other side could be seen through it. It is a verdant greenery; that I wish I could jump out of.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe exit looks harmless and aside from a few Grimms waiting to kill natives that come for it; I didn't see any other danger.
Even so, I didn't feel right about it.
"Wait there and keep an eye," I said to Nero. I wanted to ask Nero to go closer and investigate. He had abilities that could make his soul sense move to the other side if he got close to it, but I feel it wouldn't be wise.
Nero is also feeling the same; as he found a well-hidden spot closer to the gate and hid, sealing his presence.
When Nero does it, forget Sovereign and even Earth Sovereign might not be able to discover him.
I watched him for over half an hour but saw no change. Seeing that, I turned back to the formation.
Hours passed when I finally solved the formation; it was three and a half hours into the morning. Nero is still hiding, and even after this time, there is no change, other than one Grimm leaving.
I thought I would have my answer by now, but things are more complicated.
The door may seem safe, but I do not feel like it, and unless I am sure of that. I will not take a step inside it. Nero will stay there till then, while I will be exploring, away from these bastards.
I could see them, and they are still there. One of them, at least stayed awake while the rest or go for the hunt.
They brought out one person at night, and I saw it handling the same disk. It did to me.
The bark skin, native failed the test, and they ate him.
The corrupted man ate him raw while the woman cooked him before eating him. Their appetite is also quite great, as they ate him whole.
They look carefree, barely glancing at me. This formation is not easy and not many people to solve it. Even those who could, they would take at least a week or months to do it.
I did it for less than a day. If I had done it alone, it would have taken me more than a month easily.
The mind of clones is built for these things, and they are far more efficient. Though people are always better; I played the biggest in solving it. It is because of epiphany; I solved the problem that would have taken a long time to solve.
Now that I had solved the formation. It is time for me to execute the plan.
I brought out the runes and stuck on the door; the two corrupted noticed it immediately, even when they are not looking at me.
"You bastard, your job is to solve the formation only," shouted the corrupted man and took a step before stopping at it looked at the formation; clearly suspecting I might do something.
Now, they have to fight with themselves. Stay and let me have the thing inside or come and fall into the trap I might have.
I wonder what decision they will take.
Whatever they want inside must be really precious. Two corrupted, wouldn't weeks of time, in a place like this. When there is a bountiful harvest outside, which is more important to them.
They are corrupted and hunted by both sides. It is hard for them to gain the resources. So, once they entered, they would go into a frenzy to collect the resources.
Not to mention, these two are Peak Sovereigns; their never stage Earth Sovereigns and would need resources even more.
Since they are staying means, whatever is inside is more precious than the resources outside. I am curious about it, but not excited; to be surviving is most important than any other thing.
Buzz!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe formation buzz, before I heard the clicking sound. I could see the eyes of both corrupted, widening.
They had likely thought I was acting to pull them into the trap, but now I have broken the formation.
I smiled at them and turned toward the door, before placing both of my hands on it and pushing.
"We can't let it have it!" shouted the corrupted man and moved toward the formation.
Its speed is amazing, despite only moving through the physical prowess.
The corrupted woman struggled for a moment before following it.
They moved around the formation while I push the door, and this bastard door is not opening quickly, despite me using all my physical power.
I would have really liked to be inside the door before all the hell break through, but it seemed it won't be possible.
Soon, they have crossed the 40% distance toward me, when suddenly their expressions changed and horror appeared on their faces, as they found themselves covered in inheritance energy.
I have created the bubbles of forbidden power, and poured the thick inheritance energy inside them.
The moment they stepped on the place I had marked. All the bubbles would explode, covering them with the thick inheritance energy.
"Bastard!" screamed the corrupted woman in fury; her beautiful face twisted something filled with madness, but she barely glance at me; as many broken formations around them lit up brightly.
Seeing them, even horror rose in my heart; the power some of projecting is so powerful that they could vaporize in an instant.
Forget me, even two would suffer the same fate, despite their great strength.
