DESTINY GAMES

Chapter 287 Surprising Wrath.

Fortunately, now that he is a soldier, he is not restricted to one world. He has access to the races of every world that the Yggdrasil civilization has subdued.

As long as he has the merit points and the necessary security level to access some sensitive races, then he can have any race that he wants.

One of the sensitive races is the vampire race. The higher vampires and primordial vampires, which were not available at the black market, are available for exchange here.

With the hugger vampires, he can gain the ability to hypnotize and enslave others. With the primordial vampires, he can gain the ability to create more vampires.

Unfortunately, he can't get them yet because not only are they expensive, but they also require army ranks of three and four stars before he can exchange for the higher and primordial vampires, respectively.

There were a lot of such powerful races that he had never seen before. But the one race that he wanted at all costs was the Gemini race. He wanted their ability to resurrect each other as soon as possible.

In the exchange list, the Gemini races offered varied in sexes and power. They ranged from F-rank to S-rank. Any higher and he would require a higher military rank to exchange for them.

He didn't want them for their power anyway. What he wanted was their ability. So a cheap F-rank Gemini twin would do for what he had in mind.

He made the exchange for 100 merit points. Then he said to Wrath, "I have exchanged for a new race. Let's go and get it."

Wrath asked, "What race is it? What is their ability?"

He smiled and said, "It is a surprise."

Wrath said, "Oh. Now my interest is piqued. I wonder what it is. Could it be the Sparkion ability that you've been droning on and on about?"

He nodded and said with a straight face, "It could be it."

She didn't get anything from his face and tone, so she pleaded with him, "Please tell me now."

He shook his head. He didn't tell her no matter how she asked or begged. He remained stubborn about it as he boarded a carrier aircraft and moved towards the central base.

The base of operation during the invasion has been relegated to one of the many peripheral bases now that many bases are being built all over the world. The central base has become the one built at the core of the world.

So the carrier base took him and some other soldiers from the base to the core of the world. To reach their destination, they passed by the battlefield of mortals to the two gods.

The battlefield had cooled down now. So instead of a sea of lava, it has become a large layer of black solidified lava.

In several parts of the layer of solidified lava, some trees could be seen growing on top of the rock, and some figures could be seen encased in solidified lava.

There were lines of black rocks crossing the surface of the earth like the scabs of wounds on flesh. Then there were deep gorges in the earth and cracked mountains the closer they got to the battlefield of the gods.

Eventually they reached their destination. It was a large pit in the ground.

The pit was about a kilometer across. But it was deeper than that. It was at least 3 kilometers deep.

The aircraft carrier went down into the pit until it reached the blue lake at the bottom of the pit.

Wrath saw this and said, "This is the entrance to the core of the world."

Kelvin asked her, "Do you know the entrance to the core of Earth-11?"

Wrath replied, "Yes."

He continued to ask. "Where is it?"

She was silent for a while before she said, "I can't tell you."

Her reply made him frown. He asked, "Why not?"

She sighed and said, "Because it concerns the safety of all of Earth-11. If I tell you now, any god can find it in your mind. I just can't trust you with that information."

She had a point, so he let it go. He said, "I guess you're right. You should be the only one who knows that information to keep it safe."

Then he asked, "Does anyone else apart from you know where it is?"

She was silent for a while again contemplating the answer to his question. Eventually she said, "Icon should know."

He chuckled wryly. "I bet he does." Discover stories with My Virtual Library Empire

Then he asked her, "Are there other things that you don't tell me because my mind is not secure?"

She sighed and asked in return, "Why are you asking these questions all of a sudden?"

He shrugged and said, "I'm just curious. Is there any harm in being curious?"

She shook her head and said, "I suppose not in this case."

So he insisted. "Then tell me if there are other things that you're not telling me. Trust me. I won't get mad."

She said, "I might have hidden a thing or two from you."

He nodded and said, "See? I didn't get mad."

She eyed him suspiciously and noticed that he truly didn't look angry that she was keeping secrets from him. She didn't know what to feel about that.

She didn't know whether to be happy or sad that he didn't appear to care that she is keeping secrets from him. But she knew that he was acting suspicious because the last two times that the matter of her keeping information from him had come up, the two of them had fought.

She thought to herself, "Maybe having a true god skim through his mind occasionally is actually a good thing."

Kelvin continued to smile as he asked, "What if I gained your trust and acquired your mental immunity? Will you tell me about these secrets then?"

She became excited when she heard that. So she nodded and said, "Sure. If you trust me, then there will be very little need to keep secrets from you."

Kelvin hummed to himself contently while Wrath continued to eye him suspiciously.

She thought to herself, "Could this be truly happening? Has Ajanju actually pushed him to become desperate enough to trust me?"

Then she laughed inwardly. "Imagine his stupid divine face if he finds out that his attempts to push us apart have only worked to pull us together."

She was laughing to herself while Kelvin was feeling good and optimistic about his future. He was not only looking forward to immortality, but he was also looking forward to gaining the abilities she promised him.

The two of them were in a good mood as the air carrier took them past the blue lake into the core of the world.

They appeared at the edge of the blue world. What they saw was a large green tree with bare branches. It was as large as the first tree of Yggdrasil that he saw, but it didn't have many leaves yet.

Apart from the tree, there were also large platforms built around the tree. These platforms were in the shape of a circle, but the space in their center was empty like a donut.

That empty space is where the large tree is occupying. The platforms are stacked on top of each other around the large tree.

There is a space of 1,000 meters between each platform. But the two platforms that occupy the middle of the tree had a 3-kilometer distance between them.

This large space was for motherships to pass through between the two middle platforms. The two platforms were also the largest since they occupied the center of the spherical space.

As for smaller aircraft like theirs, it used the smaller space of 1,000 meters and landed on the smaller platform closer to the ground of the blue spherical world.

He got off the carrier and went towards one of the many rooms in the barrack that had been built for soldiers. He was a little in a rush because he had been informed that his package was already waiting for him in the room.

He said to Wrath with excitement, "We are almost there. Soon you will find out what I have in store for you."

Wrath was also full of anticipation. She said, "Finally. I can't wait."

The barrack was a large building with many floors. It was a skyscraper, and it looked very much like the buildings he saw in the place he was moved to when the tower of destiny teleported him to where he prepared for the foreign battlefield.

The buildings were all black. It wasn't because the buildings were painted black. They were black because they were made from some black material.

He knows this material to be the same as that used in combat bots and drones. The refineries produce it quickly and use it in almost everything.

His thoughts didn't dwell on that, though. His thoughts were in the future as he entered the barrack, used the elevator, found his room, and used his mark to unlock it.
