Chapter 1624 - 1624. Call

The group from the human domain didn’t feature many experts. That team only had one envoy for each organization, with a few exceptions.

Noah recognized many emblems when he reached the enemy group. The Monneay family, the Sailbrird family, the Rotway family, and other forces had sent their envoys in the Outer Lands, but they didn’t seem to have ill intentions.

The group lacked experts from the Crystal City, but Noah expected much. Their hatred toward Noah ran too deep even to consider the option of having a normal conversation with the Legion.

"I can’t understand if you are reckless or desperate," Noah commented after inspecting the group.

A tinge of shame appeared on the experts’ faces, but they managed to maintain stern expressions. They didn’t want to lose their cool in those regions.

"We are grateful," Gloria Sailbrird replied. "Your organization has taken care of a threat that had brought the human domain to its knees. We are here to express our desire to put an end to our past enmities."

"What if I didn’t share that desire?" Noah asked while wearing a cold smile. "You have opposed my organization and me for millennia. Forgiving you doesn’t sound proper."

"We don’t have a home," Gloria explained. "The recent catastrophe had shown us who can stand at the peak of the Immortal Lands. Our organizations have failed, and your force has won."

Noah wanted to give voice to sharp words again, but he suppressed that desire. He couldn’t find a reason to continue with his stubbornness. His old enemies didn’t have much to lose anymore.

"Just tell me what you want," Noah sighed. "I believe you didn’t come all this way only to thank me."

"You are correct," Gloria replied. "We have an offer, but we don’t know whether you’ll even consider it."

Noah turned toward Alexander and the others who had come with him to meet the envoys. They were also unclear about the nature of that offer, especially after Great Builder had described the entire layout of Heaven and Earth’s domain.

The higher plane didn’t have much to offer anymore. Noah had long since guessed that his focus had to be on the stormy regions from now on. His only issue was the lack of exciting adventures.

The windy regions were still too dangerous for Noah. He guessed that the liquid stage would allow him to endure that harsh environment, but that power level wouldn’t give him the chance to experience those lands properly.

Noah had met a rank 9 creature during his short journey through the windy regions. The liquid stage wouldn’t make him feel safe there. It was only the bare minimum requirement to survive the chaotic laws.

Alexander shrugged his shoulders, and King Elbas limited himself to nod. It didn’t hurt to listen to those envoys. They didn’t have the power to damage the Legion anyway.

Noah let the envoys inside the domes. He didn’t show them the core buildings under those structures, but he still led them into one of the various training areas.

"Speak," Noah said after he sat on the ground and took a jug of wine.

Divine Demon and the other experts quickly handed him the cups, but Noah didn’t offer anything to the envoys. Those members of the human organizations weren’t worthy of his respect.

"I’d like to begin our offer with a description of the Immortal Lands," Gloria explained, ignoring the fact that Noah didn’t offer her wine.

The expert began to describe matters that Noah and the others had recently learnt from Great Builder. She drew a simple map that described Heaven and Earth’s domain in the air without giving many details about the lands on the other side of the sky.

Noah and the others pretended to feel some interest in those drawings and remained silent as Gloria reached the main topic of the meeting. Her fingers pointed at the central landmass that represented the higher plane before she began to explain the nature of that offer.

"The Immortal Lands isn’t a planet," Gloria explained. "They are nothing more than a landmass with intense storms at its edges. Our domains occupy only one side of this structure, but there is another side right under it."

"I hope you aren’t suggesting to reach the other side," Noah snorted.

"We indeed are," Gloria continued. "Imagine having access to a second higher plane that isn’t ready for our arrival. We can suppress and raid entire organizations before returning here."

"How would you even reach the other side?" King Elbas asked. "The storms surround the plane, which leaves us with no path."

"We are planning to dig the ground until we reach the other side," Gloria revealed, but her words only managed to make Noah and the others explode into a laugh.

"For how long do you even plan to do it?" Noah laughed. "You don’t even know how thick the higher plane is. You might have to spend entire millennia digging only to find a surface invaded by magical beasts."

The envoys’ expression changed after that remark. They weren’t angry. Instead, they appeared hesitant. It seemed that they wanted to say something, but they suppressed their words.

"We are done," Noah sighed at that sight. "You can leave. I don’t have time to waste in political games."

The expert from the Rotway family immediately stood up and pretended to leave, but the other envoys convinced her to stay. The meeting was far from over. They only had to give the last news before deciding.

"Digging is the wrong word," Gloria continued. "Truth be told, we already have a viable route. Heaven and Earth have opened it for us after the events with Radiant Eyes."

Noah couldn’t help but wear a stern expression once the topic shifted to Heaven and Earth. He wanted to know more about that tunnel now, but only to understand the intentions of those rulers.

"I know that some of you can contact Heaven and Earth," Noah announced. "How much did they tell you about this tunnel? Did they force you to come here?"

Noah couldn’t shake the feeling that the tunnel was a trap. It didn’t specifically target him, but it attracted his interest.

"We tried to ask," Gloria revealed. "Our main guess was that Heaven and Earth were giving us a way out of Radiant Eyes’ threat, but that hypothesis shattered after you took care of her. Our new idea is a bit scarier, and that’s the exact reason why we are here."

"Do you want a meat shield?" Noah asked.

"We need powerful warriors," Gloria continued. "Our second guess sees Heaven and Earth in need of help. There might be a threat on the others side that their Tribulation can’t handle."

"Why would I bother to come then?" Noah asked. "I like seeing Heaven and Earth struggling. I have no reason to help them."

"We decided to contact you due to your power," Gloria explained. "Your affiliation doesn’t matter. We only want more lands to conquer."

"You can go," Noah replied. "I’m not interested."

"Do you prefer to spend your journey till you are strong enough for the windy regions?" Gloria asked. "Welcome to the top. Try not to get bored. I will wait for your call."
