Chapter 657: No Noob Talk.
After reviewing his power, he shook his head as he thought to himself, saying, ’If I don’t go to Oceania to earn divine merit points, will I continue hunting for stunted small worlds that won’t increase my power by much, or should I pick another mission to go to?`
He didn’t dwell on this question for long before deciding what to do. It took a few seconds of thinking for him to choose to go to Oceania.
He made this choice because he felt more confident about his chances of success since he was drastically stronger than he had been the last time he had gone to Oceania.
During his previous attempt, his Cave Heaven had only been 146 million square kilometers in size, and he only had 9 Divine Metacs to use. Compared to what he has now, there is a massive difference.
The difference is that his Cave Heaven is now 3.932 times bigger, and he has an extra 10 Divine Metacs to use with his Power Shifting Ability. This is a great source of confidence for him.
There is also the fact that he knows that Money Body is not trustworthy. With this lesson learned and many others, he is more confident in keeping himself alive and completing the mission.
Since his mind was made up about this, he didn’t waste time taking out his sect token and registering for the mission. The sect also didn’t waste time assigning him to the mission.
With everything set up, he sighed as he said to himself, ’The mission is still not completely safe, though. Not only is Money Body still dangerous to me, but there is also the dragon king. The two of them can still tear me to shreds.’
’However, as long as Money Body doesn’t attack me directly, as long as I don’t let him set me up, and as long as I don’t fight the dragon king myself, everything should be fine, and the mission should be completed.’
Then he chuckled as he said, ’For now, I can only partially guarantee that Money Body won’t be able to set me up. As for the other two, I’m not sure that I can avoid them.’
’The only thing I can say is that the chances of Money Body attacking me directly are low during the mission. As for after the mission has ended, I am fairly certain that he will attack me as soon as he gets the chance.’
He reviewed his plans like this as he traveled to the meeting point. As soon as he arrived, he saw the tide of emotionless homunculi working tirelessly for the benefit of the Four Directions Sect.
The sight of the homunculi gave him a different feeling now that he knew more about how Supreme Metacs work. He gained a newfound appreciation for the creation of beings stuck in the limbo between life and death.
While he was looking at the homunculi, someone was sent to verify his identity and bring him into the world. Just like the previous timeline, Nether Flame was the one who came to receive him.
In the past, Nether Flame had been disappointed when they met and had shown that disappointment clearly without holding back. But things were different this time.
Nether Flame said, "Are you Gold Body?"
He replied, saying, "I am."
Nether Flame then said, "I see. Follow me."
That was all he said. He didn’t mention how Loki had only been a divine being for three years.
Loki wasn’t surprised by this. But it did make him chuckle when he thought about the difference in treatment.
Another difference was that they didn’t talk along the way to their destination. This was mostly because Loki didn’t have any questions to ask and didn’t bother trying to get information out of Nether Flame.
But even if he had asked Nether Flame some questions, the death cultivator also wasn’t interested in being a fountain of knowledge and wouldn’t have answered any of his questions. This was because he was no longer the ignorant noob who needed to be fed common-sense knowledge.
Loki didn’t mind the silence. He let his mind wander in the silence as he thought of his plans for the upcoming mission. When he wasn’t thinking, he was observing his surroundings.
Now that his Cave Heaven was bigger, his range of perception had increased. So through his observations, he saw more of the world around them.
He saw the many factories scattered all over the main continent of the small world. He also saw the inner rings in the sky of the small world.
Loki saw that there were also seven inner rings within the small world. He saw that each ring was a large structure with a large surface.
These inner rings were connected to the outer rings through the train tracks that passed through the crystal shell. As he watched, he saw trains leaving the inner rings through the train tracks and leaving the small world.
Then he saw large elevators that connected the rings from the sky to the ground surface. So the equipment and people could leave the surface of the small world to get to the inner rings easily. From there, they will be able to use the train tracks to leave the small world for the outer rings.
Down below, there were factories of various kinds. The factories were split into two main types. They were flesh factories and the machine factories.
When he wasn’t observing his environment, he used the Power Identification to observe people. He did this to Nether Flames, Money Body, and Ant Hill.
