I Don't Agree to the Terms-Chapter 1106 - 582: Preparing to Tear Down the House, Villains Come Knocking
"It's a pity that the world started to wither within three months of my arrival. I've collected a lot of resources, but there's no way to shuttle there a second time," Gu Shanhai said with a tone of regret.
"I'm not sure whether I should praise your luck or not for these two trips," Noc Fu chuckled helplessly. "With your good luck, you're either running into Ghost Hunters or finding the world withering due to Destructive Frost."
But if you say his luck is bad, each time he managed to bring back complete technology and a whole folded space of resources, which is simply unbelievable.
"Maybe my luck is good, but not totally good," Gu Shanhai remarked teasingly, then casually asked, "Nothing major happening recently, right?"
He was actually still worried about the Ghost Hunters.
"You've noticed it too?" Noc Fu was a bit surprised, and then he said, "A month after you left, we had a conflict with the Ghost Hunters."
Gu Shanhai quietly sighed in relief that he escaped in time, but he didn't show it and instead asked, "Seems like we won, otherwise, by the time I came back, there wouldn't be a single one of us alive."
"That's not entirely accurate. The other party was mostly here to inquire. It seems a small team of Ghost Hunters was completely wiped out."
"As you know, currently, in our regional area, only we have this capability, and there aren't many interests on each side, so it was practically a probing move."
"So after a stalemate and a few fights, they left."
"After this incident, we're completely at odds with the Ghost Hunters, even discussing that if we encounter them again, we don't have to hide but can fight back."
Noc Fu said a lot, clearly displeased, as they'd both been invaded, and even the most tolerant couldn't endure it.
It's just that no conclusion has been drawn yet, so he didn't speak too bluntly. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎
"That's really... frustrating," Gu Shanhai muttered, though this was already the best outcome.
If it really came to a fight with the Ghost Hunters, the Elf Clan would have the upper hand initially, but ultimately, it would be the Elf Clan that loses.
The Ghost Hunters are countless in number, and they can resurrect after death. The Elf Clan can rely on technology to contend with them, but it doesn't mean they can outlast them.
"There's nothing we can do," Noc Fu said grimly, shaking his head. "If you have nothing else, go back and rest well. Hopefully, next time you'll have better luck and won't draw such troublesome worlds again."
"I actually look forward to it, after all, each time I bring back so much," Gu Shanhai said as he stood up to leave.
Noc Fu watched Gu Shanhai's figure and said somewhat resignedly, "You can't always come back every time."
Gu Shanhai pretended not to hear and went back on his own.
As for the Ghost Hunter matter, it's essentially settled. Clearly, the Ghost Hunters have eliminated the Elf Clan as suspects.
Can't help but say, those Ghost Hunters are quite peculiar. As long as it doesn't involve hunting the strong, they're very easy to talk to and fair, without wrongful accusations or directly scapegoating the Elf Clan.
But after this incident, the Elf Clan's feelings towards the Ghost Hunters have changed from hostility to hatred, and the original strategy will likely also change.
So this time, the Elf Clan was merely taking the blame; if they really had done it, they wouldn't have such thoughts.
After all, mastering the means to seriously harm the Ghost Hunters would surely lead to extensive research, rather than just this attitude.
"There shouldn't be any other issues moving forward."
With the data from this time, Gu Shanhai is confident about relocating the World Tree's leaves.
And can do so without leaving a trace, so not even the Ghost Hunters can detect it.
Based on previous situations, the Ghost Hunters and even the Hunter King are likely monitoring the Elf Clan; otherwise, they wouldn't have come so quickly.
By then, once the World Tree's leaves reach the Wizard World, even the Ghost Hunters won't be able to follow through.
The Ghost Hunters can roam the radiation areas formed by Magic Power tides, moving freely between worlds, but as Magic Power tides get more remote, their ability is increasingly restricted, and they can't even sense it.
In areas at the High Magic stage, they can move freely, but in the Mid-level Magic areas, it's already beyond their hunting range because it doesn't produce the strong ones they need.
In Low Magic areas, they can't even perceive, and going there isn't easy.
In regions devoid of magic, well, they are outside the area of Magic Power tides' radiation and can't be reached at all.
Ghost Hunters are purely magic-power creatures, capable of resurrection, crossing worlds, and possessing great power within the area of Magic Power tides' radiation.
Additionally, it's a matter of ingrained thinking. In the minds of the Ghost Hunters and Hunter King, worlds that can produce the strong are only in High Magic areas, and they don't even consider Mid-level and Low Magic areas.
So as long as Gu Shanhai escapes, he can rely on the tactic of hiding in plain sight to avoid detection.
"Just not sure how the Wizard World is doing over there."
"But with the Four Sacred Beasts, nothing unexpected should happen."
Gu Shanhai was also pondering the next steps.
As for the protagonist and antagonist, Gu Shanhai didn't care at all.
Even if these two join hands and go all out, together they can't handle a single Heart Demon Dao Soldier, the world's limit restrains their growth.
No matter how strong they are, that's the extent, completely insignificant.
"It's just the next action might be a bit big, not sure if it can be concealed from the Elf Clan."
