Chapter 1124: Protector Castle

In the grey dwarf world.

'System, I want to use the smaller world's world cores now.'

In a huge castle that was specially built by the grey dwarves for their Protector, Ajax was currently sitting in the main hall as he ordered the system.

'Ding,

The smaller world's world cores are detected in the host's inventory. Starting the process now. Please wait and endure the pain if any.

Soon, he got the reply from the system that made him close his eyes as he felt the mysterious energy filled his body from the small golden core.

'There is no pain.'

Ajax was a little surprised when he didn't feel any pain from increasing his cultivation this time because he felt some pain previously when he increased his cultivation using the smaller world's world core.

After settling the thing in the Mountain lion woods, Ajax gave a few more orders to the tribe leaders from the two regions under his control.

As soon as he finished that, he didn't waste any time entering the grey dwarf world as he was excited to increase his cultivation as soon as possible.

Once he entered the grey dwarf world, he summoned his two dwarf followers along with the dwarf advisor before handing out the space rings that contained the spirit beast meat.

After that, he found out that the grey dwarves' build a huge castle for him while he was gone and he was shocked with the working efficiency of the dwarves to build a magnificent castle in such a short time.

Nevertheless, he didn't waste much time as he praised them a little before entering the castle to look for a place to settle before starting his cultivation.

Currently, Ajax was completely covered with mysterious golden energy as it entered into his body; however, the energy consumed by Ajax was always replaced by something else.

'Ding,

The host's cultivation is increased to level 8 general realm.

'Ding,

The host's cultivation is…

'Ding,

The host's cultivation is increased to level 10 general realm.

Soon, Ajax received three system notifications in his head notifying him regarding his cultivation; however, Ajax frowned because he still had to get another notification as he still had one smaller world's world core left with him.

'Ding,

Detected an additional smaller world's world core; however, the host can either choose to break into the elite general realm or collect a normal world's world core to gain an additional official elemental spirit slot.

'What?'

Even though he received a system notification, Ajax was not expecting that system notification and he was surprised for a moment.

'I already have an extra official elemental spirit slot and if I get another official element, not only would I get an official skill but an additional force to rely on.'

In things like these, Ajax didn't have to think much before choosing what he needed the most. So, of course, he chose to wait for a normal world core.

Since he would be immortal in the grey dwarf world, Ajax felt it would not make much difference even if he broke through to the level 1 elite general realm.

At least, that's what he thought to convince himself before opening his eyes and standing up from the ground.

'I feel powerful yet again.'

With the increase of three minor levels in the general realm, Ajax felt he would directly kill a peak elite general realm cultivator without using any of his trumps.

'If he has a cultivator's or elemental soul of level 1, I can still kill him; however, if he has above level 2 law, then I could only rely on the aqua dragon's bloodline along with elemental spirit merger's bloodline.'

Every time his strength increased, Ajax would feel the same thing like he could conquer anything; however, he knew there were big cultivators out there and he needed to be never satisfied with his cultivation or battle prowess.

'If I have to use the normal world's world core, then what about the smaller world core I have in my inventory. Also, I already prepared a plan to enter the surrounding smaller worlds. So, what about them?'

All of a sudden, Ajax asked a couple of questions to the system.

'Ding,

Actually, there are many uses of the world cores. Other than increasing the host's cultivation for his unique cultivation method, it can be used to merge with other world cores of the same level to become a high-level one.

'Ding,

10 smaller world's world cores can be merged to become one normal world's world core.

'Ding,

Also, the smaller world core can decrease the time for the smaller world to become the normal world.

'Ding,

Furthermore, if a smaller world's world core absorbed a world seed, then a smaller world's world core can be used to speed up the upgradation process.

'Ding,

There are many other uses that the host has to find on his own.

'So many uses?'

Ajax was surprised for a moment when he thought about how hard he had to work to get his hands on the smaller world's world cores, then he was no longer surprised.

'However, the thing is, should I wait until I collect nine other smaller worlds' world cores or should I just give it the world core of the grey dwarf world?'

Since the grey dwarf world's world core had consumed the world seed he got from the system, Ajax felt the time required for the grey dwarf world to become normal would be decreased. So, he started thinking about what he had to do.

If the grey dwarf world becomes a normal world, all the grey dwarf's talent in weapon refining would be improved. Also, he could use the trading mirror to trade with the emperors of the normal worlds instead of Kings of a smaller world.

'Emperors will have a lot of good items compared to the Kings; however, the problem is I have to find a way to repair the broken trading mirror.'

'As for entering the elite general realm with a normal world's world core, I can find...wait a second.'

While he was thinking, Ajax thought of something and directly came to a conclusion.

'I will just wait until I find a way to repair the trading mirror before focusing on my cultivation. Once I have enough cultivation, I can even directly get the normal world's world core and let this world core consume it.'

Even though it took some time for him to get to the conclusion, Ajax was satisfied with his decision.

"I have to resume my conquering missions soon and gather nine more smaller world cores and enter the elite general realm. Once I enter that realm, I can pay a visit to the Undead bronze demon world and save all the elemental spirits."

Ajax thought about his world-conquering mission as he had already planned which worlds he had to conquer next.

'However, before that, I need to give some orders to my little dwarves to prepare some high-level heaven grade weapons.'

Ajax didn't forget about the training grounds inside the Never-returning cave and Zaglanath's words to enter the training grounds.

So, he had to make sure to get the payment ready while he could fully focus on the world-conquering mission.

With that thought in his head, Ajax walked out of the castle as he summoned the leaders of the 100 towns in the grey dwarf world.

…..

In front of the recently built protector castle.

Ajax was sitting on a wall as he looked at the 100 old dwarves standing on the ground with respectful looks on their faces.

It took them a couple of hours for all the town leaders to gather in front of the castle and since they were doing nothing these days, they were faster to come to the castle.

"Protector, thanks for taking care of our food crisis."

"Yes, protector. Not  only did you bring the spirit beast carcasses but they were more high-level than the ones we used  to raise in the past."

"We are very grateful to you, protector Ajax."

All the old dwarves fell to the knees as they thanked Ajax from the bottom of their hearts.

"As your protector, that's the least thing I have to do."

Ajax shook his head before saying, "So, how long do you think the food I bought will last for you?"

Ajax wanted to know it because he didn't want to be in a hurry like previously. Moreover, since he would destroy some worlds, Ajax could always keep an eye on the spirit beasts' bodies for his little grey dwarves.

"If we use it conservatively, it would last us for three months."

One of the old dwarves didn't think much as he replied to Ajax because he had already calculated when he received the space rings from Rurbeak and Lurmer.

"There is no need to be conservative with the food."

Ajax revealed a slight smile on his face as he knew what all the town leaders were thinking in their heads. Having Ajax as their protector was already a good thing and they didn't want to make him take trips to the other worlds because of them.

However, Ajax didn't lack the spirit beasts to hunt. So, he ordered them not to be conservative with the food.

"How long will it last if you eat it lavishingly?"

Ajax asked them another question.

"One and a half months, protector."

"45 days? That's the right time for me to go back."

Ajax nodded his head as he asked, "So, let's discuss the weapon refining business now."
