After the conclusion of the Planar War, Cheng Hao and Reisgem chose to return to the Infernal Realm, while Linley and Bebe would remain in the Netherworld for a period of time to revive his parents and friends.
Passing through the Planar Corridor, Linley returned to Purgatory City with Reisgem and Reihom. The three of them arrived at a large, empty hall.
When Cheng Hao had first entered the Planar Battlefield from Purgatory City, there had been very few people in the main hall. But now that he was in the main hall of the Infernal Realm, the entire main hall was filled with people. He heard a loud shout, "Everyone, come here to collect your badges and record your military exploits! Soldiers, line up and go to other receptionists! Commanders, come here to record things! "
Cheng Hao glanced over. The person shouting was a black-robed, somewhat stooped old man. It was Warwick, who had accompanied him into the Planar Battlefield.
"Warwick, you're quite busy today!" In the Infernal Realm, Reisgem truly had made friends all over the world. He immediately walked over to the old man, laughing as he greeted him.
"So it's Reisgem. That's how my place is. It only opens once every few hundred million years. After this busy period is over, I'll have some free time!" Warwick laughed. In front of Reisgem, a second-generation Sovereign, he didn't dare to put on airs.
"Boss Olivier, do you still want to record military merits?" After greeting Warwick, Reisgem turned and asked.
"Forget it. I've already given all my gold badges to Linley. As for the soldiers' white badges, they're just for some Sovereign's Might. Didn't you give me a flask of that stuff? I don't lack it, so I won't exchange these white badges for military merits!"
As he spoke, Cheng Hao produced an interspatial ring, and then grabbed a bald soldier who was walking past him, shoving the interspatial ring into his hands.
"These military merits are for you!"
After doing this, Cheng Hao didn't wait for the bald soldier's reaction. He waved his hand towards Reisgem. "I'm going back to the Skymount Prefecture. If you're bored, you can come play at my place!"
"Alright, Boss. When I have the time, I'll come over as a guest!" Reisgem waved his arms, bidding farewell to Cheng Hao.
Cheng Hao smiled and nodded at Warwick. Then, under the gaze of countless commanders and soldiers, he left the hall and transformed into a green ray of light, leaving Purgatory City in the blink of an eye.
"Just now, was that Lord Olivier?" Watching as Cheng Hao left, the bald man held the interspatial ring in his hand, a silly grin on his face. "Lord Olivier gave me an enormous military merit!"
"Second Brother, your luck is quite good. Now, you'll be able to trade for a drop of Sovereign's Might, right?" By his side, a white-haired youth asked rather enviously.
"Hehe, it's not just one drop. Of the five of us brothers, the only ones left are myself and you, Fourth Brother. When we trade for Sovereign's Might, we'll split it evenly. In the future, so long as we don't offend any powerful experts, we'll be able to live comfortably in the Infernal Realm until the next Planar War! "
.....
After leaving Purgatory City, Cheng Hao headed towards the map of the Muja Continent. The final Overgod mission item was located there!
According to the storyline, the final mission item, the red caltrop diamond, would be unintentionally acquired by a God named Brodie a thousand years in the future, in the Cordson Mountains of the Muja Continent. As for whether or not this item had appeared, it was hard to say.
The Muja Continent was more than ten billion kilometers away from Purgatory City. Even given Cheng Hao's speed, it took him nearly ten years to arrive at this enormous continent.
As soon as he entered the continent, Cheng Hao immediately changed directions, heading towards the Cordson Mountains. Regardless of whether or not the red caltrop diamond had appeared, he was going to go search for it.
.....
Outside a fog-filled mountain valley, more than ten thousand Highgod guards were stationed. The leader of the guards was the one Cheng Hao had sent to the Cordson Mountains to search for the red caltrop diamond, Orne.
"Milord, we've already searched the Cordson Mountains for a thousand years. We've searched the entire mountain range, inside and out. We've found quite a few treasures, but the red caltrop diamond you speak of is nowhere to be found!"
Orne was standing at the entrance to the mountain valley. Next to him was a young man dressed in silver armor, who was currently grumbling to Orne, a look of resignation on his face.
"Cut the crap. The Lord Prefect ordered us to search for the red caltrop diamond, which means that it must be here. A treasure that the Lord Prefect values must be extraordinary. How could it be so easily discovered?"
Orne knew exactly what the guards were complaining about. Although the Cordson Mountains weren't small, they still couldn't withstand a thousand years of searching by more than ten thousand Highgods. Even the underground of the mountain range had been scoured by earth-style Highgods, much less the inside of the mountain range. But the red caltrop diamond which the Lord Prefect had requested hadn't even been found.
"Milord, your subordinate isn't complaining. It's just a thousand years. Our brothers won't object. But this isn't our Skymount Prefecture, after all. The Cordson Mountains are under the jurisdiction of the Silverblue Prefecture of the Muja Continent. Our large-scale search of the Cordson Mountains has already incurred the displeasure of the Lord Prefect of the Silverblue Prefecture. Not long ago, the head steward of the Silverblue Prefecture came to deliver a message, telling us to leave as soon as possible. If we delay any longer, the Lord Prefect will probably personally chase us out! "
A hint of worry appeared on the silver-armored guard's face. As the saying went, even a mighty dragon couldn't suppress a local snake. If the Lord Prefect of the Silverblue Prefecture really did act, their deaths would probably be in vain. Could it be that Lord Olivier would make an enemy out of a Prefect for the sake of these guards?
"Forget it. Let our brothers leave. If the Lord Prefect is displeased when we return, I'll take full responsibility. But unfortunately, we didn't complete the very first mission which the Lord Prefect gave us. The days ahead are probably going to be tough!" Orne nodded, then sighed and gave the order.
"Yes, sir!"
The silver-armored guard clasped his fists and accepted the order, then hurriedly returned to the mountain valley. He prepared to organize the troops and then lead them out of this place. This mission could be considered a complete failure.
Swish!
Just as the silver-armored guard was giving the order to retreat, in the air above the Cordson Mountains, a black blur suddenly appeared, charging at high speed. A terrifying aura of darkness could be clearly sensed from more than ten kilometers away.
"It's a peak-level expert of the darkness attribute. Everyone, be careful. The person who has come is very likely the Lord Prefect of the Silverblue Prefecture!" Seeing the black blur attacking them, Orne's expression was nervous as he shouted.
"Enemy attack. Stop the retreat. Get into formation and prepare to meet the enemy!" The silver-armored guard also reacted. His expression changed drastically, and he could only give the order to prepare to meet the enemy.
