Chapter 361 Priorities

The Dilaila stone...

There are accountable Dilaila stones that exist.

The Dilaila stone appears in a special place in the heavens whenever a new world is created.

Each world has its own Dilaila stone. And the overseers of these worlds were also the keepers of these stones.

These stones are never to leave the heavenly realm, guarded by the various keepers every moment.

Each keeper infuses a whiff of themselves in their stones to keep track of them.

So if anyone ever touched or tried to attack or steal them, the respective gods, angels, goddesses, and heavenly beings would be aware.

In such cases, even Loki would have a near-impossible time overpowering too many heavenly beings at once.

Moreover, a chosen overseer could destroy a stolen Dilaila stone with just their thought, even if it was realism away from them.

Creating a new one would also be nothing to them, provided they were the assigned overseers of these territories.

But this was where this world's situation became advantageous for the underworld.

After infinity years of searching, this is the only world accidentally forgotten from the time of its creation.

In the end, though it still operated in the laws of heaven, it didn't have any overseers. And in the end, the underworld beings somehow got their hands on its Dilaila stone with the help of some treacherous heavenly being.

Dorian was sure that once the war broke out after the planets aligned, this contaminated stone would be able to pierce through the barrier between the mortal and heavenly realm.

Those in the underworld already had gateways to get to the mortal world.

p So once another gateway opened to the heavenly realm, their goal was clear for all to see.

They wanted to ascend without heating the Heavenly auras in the heavenly realm.

Dorian didn't think this stone alone would be enough to keep them alive against the heavenly aura above.

So what other good plans and items had they collected from their good old buddy Loki?

Tsk...

If you tell him Loki didn't have a hand in this, he would never believe it.

All shards should be in here.

'In this case, why not seize them all?'

.

Ahhhhhhh~~~~

Everyone watched the creature scream and go up in pinkish flames until its ashes vanished.

--Silence--

Old Bho secretly pinching himself in a daze.

1, 2, 3...

'F***!'

He finally reacted, cursing loudly like his silly Grandson.

But before he or anyone else could comment on the epic battle they watched, Dorian flicked his fingers, and the many shrunken survivors floated towards them.

The survivors were no taller than anyone's ankles.

They shook in fear, watching Dorian's silhouette grow bigger and bigger the closer they approached.

Hell!

Who knew being so small was so terrifying?

They couldn't help wondering if this was how mice, roaches, and other smaller beings saw them from below.

Swish!

Dorian waved a talisman paper, and it expanded into a box.

And though fearful, every survivor felt the need to enter this magical box and stay far away from the many dangers around them.

It wasn't just them, as even some of the Bho guards and the Navy officers felt tempted.

After all, they had seen and been through, who wouldn't?

Gia Ming smacked his lips dryly, starting at the levitating box before him.

"Grand... Grandmaster... Did we get them all?"

His question made everyone look around cautiously.

Yes!

Are all survivors in there?

(?o?)

.

Everyone stretched their necks, even though they couldn't see into the box floating at eye-level before them.

Looking around, they also had a brief sadness for the survivors not rescued.

There were blood trails all over the place, all belonging to humans. So it's evident many were dead at this point.

Sigh...

"What a tragic sight."

The bloody and messy sight gave everyone goosebumps just picturing how these unfortunate survivors died.

That is, they could only see the few pieces of scrapped human skin along these bloody trails but no body.

So wouldn't these people be in the bellies of these creatures?

Dammit!

What was the definition of fear? This was it!

Gulp~

Many swallowed their hard.

Even with the creature dead, they still had a lingering ominous feeling buried in their bellies. So they more than anyone else, knew this wasn't the time to dwell on the dead.

"Go?... Right!... Go, go... The Grandmaster is right."

"I agree. Onwards and upwards. With the Grandmaster here, what's there to be scared of?"

"Yeah. We have faced countless battles and can never be shaken by such enemies!"

"Sir, you said it well."

"Of course! Who do you think I am?"

"As expected of you, sir. You're right. It wasn't so scary after all. But sir, I seem not to have gotten enough sleep before coming here. Or else why would my legs be sleeping so much?"

"..."

Gia Ming shook his head wryly, looking at his comrades as well as himself, whose legs had just betrayed them all.

Their upper bodies were firm, but their legs had turned to jelly.

They could really do with old Ghu's walking cane right about now. And without realizing it, they were all closer to Dorian than before.

What about personal space?

Sorry. They don't understand what those words mean.

Call them shameless all you want. But after facing what they did, how dare they move an inch away from their savior?

Huh!

Don't forget they were still in enemy territory.

And for Bho Jin, if his horror movie knowledge was correct, wouldn't these creatures try breaking them apart or killing them one by one if they ever strayed far away?

Don't try to fool him... He was very smart!!

(V^V)

.

[Host, it looks like the entire ship has a problem.]

'Hmmm...'

But so what? Handling these lesser ones should be easy. His biggest problem was the one at the far center of the island.

In the end, he still had to deal with these little ones to get all the shards, leaning no stone unturned.

But of course, the big one at the island's center should have the majority in its grasp.

Very quickly, Dorian connected the rest telepathically.

[Kill all you find. Collect the shards within them.]

Boom!

The order was given. And whenever it was Butler Sheng surrounded by enemies around a boiling swamp or Old Gia surrounded by enemies in a graveyard or the others, their eyes grew firm.

Collect the shards… Collect them all.

Old madam Ghu glanced at the hideous beings surrounding her from the corners of her eyes. And in a flash, her image vanished, appearing several feet high.

"Ice Darting Arrows!~"

Boom!!!!
