2707 Acquisition
A moment later, Kafan nodded at Leandro. "That is not impossible. However, how confident are you that your organization can truly prevent the Fragmetn's harm?"
Leandro and Kafan were both Semi-Celestials. Although there wasn't a way to be when it came to experts of their level, lying wasn't a good idea either. The instincts of such experts were no joke. "80%. Probably a little higher, but I decided to be conservative." Above all, there seemed to really be a chance of resolving things here without a battle.
Kafan nodded, satisfied. "It is not impossible for me to accept your deal on our group's behalf, but I have a condition."
"Speak," Leandro asked. From the looks of it, he was the true leader of the Vruve Group.
"The Purple Crystal," Kafan didn't think twice. "I want the Purple Crystal where the Fragment exists. If you let us have the Purple Crystal, then we don't care about the Fragment."
The Purple Crystal was definitely a great treasure, and the Vruves seemed to be aware of its capabilities. However, law comprehension wasn't a big deal to them. They only cared about the Foreign Fragment, nothing else. If they could acquire th Purple Crystal and the Fragment, great! If not, the Fragment was more than enough. "We accept!"
Of course, Leandro also added. "However, we don't know how to take the Fragment out of the Crystal. You will have to wait until we return to the Vruve Organization and extract it. We have been in business with each other for many years, so you should know we will keep our word."
"There is no need," however, Kafan shook his head. "I have a method to separate the Purple Crystal and the Fragment. As long as you have the Fragment, you don't mind it, right? Don't worry, I won't do anything to the Fragment. The Purple Crystal is just as important to me."
Leandro pondered a bit. None of the Semi-Celestials on his side said anything, seeming to accept that Leandro held the ultimate decision power. "It can be considered. How will you do it."
Roan stepped forward after hearing that. "I have a bloodline connection with the Loporrits. The Chaos Las and Energy in the crystal can be absorbed quite fast if I'm the one in command of the process. The method is very simple and you should be able to tell there are no risks to it. I will focus on absorbing the Purple Crystal's Chaos Laws and Energy in a funnel manner. It should open a path to the Fragment right in the center of the Crystal. You can simply extract it yourselves. What do you think?"
It was a surprise to every one to hear that Roan had a bloodline connection with the Loporrits. That meant Rean also had the same since they were twins. "No wonder your Chaos Cultivation got so high to the point of being able to fight us on this planet. It also explains why the Loporrits would go out of their way to help you with it," said Leandro.
In the end, he nodded. "Very well. We will all surround the crystal, and you can start your work. However, if I feel anything amiss, don't blame me for being impolite."
"We both have way too much to lose if we start a fight here, so you have no need to worry," Kafan answered.
The two groups surrounded the Crystal before Roan touched it. Rean, Celis, and Kentucky followed suit, beginning to absorb the Crystal's Properties from the inside. Although Roan lied about having a Loporrit Bloodline, the connection with that Race did truly exist. It was thanks to that that he could feel the Foreign Fragment deep inside the Crystal at all.
Roan then showed where the Rean, Celis, and Kentucky should absorb the Crytal and told them to not care about wasting its energy. The main priority was to open a path to the Fragment inside. Once that was done, they would still have pretty much the entire Crystal to use.
As the twins did that, Sansara was still lost in this event. But then again, it wasn't like he had any say in this. He truly was the weakest there at the moment. He could only sigh and go with the flow. He simply wondered where the other Semi-Celestials had gone. He could tell they were on the top of the tower, on its last floor.
The tower was indeed enormous, but with a Semi-Celesital's strength, covering the distance between the first floor and this one wouldn't take more than a few minutes even if you moved extremely carefully.
There was indeed a reason for that. When the warped space disappeared, everyone else reappeared on the first floor. Yet, they soon found out that they still couldn't fly to the tower's top on the outside. The outside was still protected by that spatial power. That said, they could only return to the tower and go up through the floors like before.
Without a Warped Space, they were able to check through the windows that they really were making progress this time. With their speed, they indeed wouldn't take more than a few minutes to reach the top. Unfortunately... they weren't the only ones who also escaped that warped space... All the Wonder Beasts in there also came out! Simply put, they were all distributed on the many floors of the tower, so the others were forced to battle their way up. It would take a very long time until they arrive.
Since the twins' group cared little about any waste, the process was fast. Leandro could see the small hole opening in the crystal, getting deeper and deeper. In just three hours, the hole finally reached the Fragment at the center. Obviously, it was just big enough for the Fragment itself to make its way through.
Seeing that, Kafan gave Roan and the others an order. "All of you, step back. Don't worry. Leandro will not try to rob the Purple Crystal. He knows he has a lot more to lose if he tries to keep it after acquiring the Fragment." After saying that, Kafan also stepped back, and his group stayed far away from the Crystal.
Leandro was relieved inwardly. Through that hole, he could clearly see the Fragment. Not to mention that the hole truly had just enough space to extract it. Bracius and the others stayed in between the Crystal and the Twins' group just to make sure they wouldn't try anything idiotic.
Leandro focused on his own Chaos Cultivation and used it to reach the Fragment deep inside. The Fragment seemed to struggle a bit, but because it wasn't attached to the Crystal Anymore, it made its way through the hole, soon reaching Leandro's hand.
Finally, he used his Divine Sense to analyze the Fragment and confirmed that it was truly what they came here for. The objective of the Organization was now fulfilled. He then looked at the crystal, and it did pass through his mind to fight for it now. However, the Fragment in his hand was the priority, and as small as the chances might be, he truly couldn't risk losing it because of his greed. "All of you, we are leaving," He said before throwing the Fragment into his own Pocket Dimensional Realm.
Xude didn't quite like that decision, though. "Are we really leaving the Crystal for them?"
"Are you telling me to go back on my word?" Leandro's expression turned dark as he looked at Xude.
Xude felt like a mountain pressed on his soul as he quickly shook his head. "No, no, no! That was my mistake. We should leave, yes."
"Hmph!" Leandro then flew to the exit as his group followed him. Without looking back, they went down to the next floor, leaving the twins' group behind.
Kafan sighed in relief before looking at Rean. 'How was it?' He asked through a Divine Sense Message.
Rean gave him a thumbs up, feeling very pleased with himself. 'They didn't notice a thing!'
Little did the Vruves know, but the Fragment wasn't the only thing they acquired. They also acquired... the item that can send it out of this Universe!
And as always, any Golden Tickets and Stones are welcome. ;)
