Chapter 2200 Interesting Approach
Bloody Chariot tried to narrow down and find out where this nest location is.
However, none of the known locations that are connected to the Academy realm are near this place. So, he could only take a different approach. A costly one at that.
"I need you guys to build a space gate. An interdimensional transference token connected to that place. I will go to that place and come back here. After getting an initial idea, I will take a team of you people to build another space gate there."
That was what he said in a meeting with the elders of the formation department.
The elders all looked at the coordinates of the place and then at some of the instructions written below. It was just a single piece of document. But they felt like they are carrying a million ton weight in their hands.
"Sir, the situation is not really good at the moment. Just from basic calculations, we can see that the location of these coordinates is way too far away from here.
Even if we are optimistic about our travel means, it will take almost twenty days to go there through wormholes. That too assuming that there are connection realms and planets with wormholes leading up to there.
To create a space gate of such a large distance…
If we knew a few details about that place like the atmospheric conditions and the presence of spiritual energy in that environment, we might be able to reduce the energy consumption and resources needed. But right now, we will have to put a strain on our academy funds.
Please rethink this decision.
After all, our Academy tournament is about to start in a couple of weeks. We need to make sure that the needs of the kids are met."
Bloody Chariot was stumped and indeed fell into a deep contemplation.
He is in a hurry to explore that place. But it was purely because he wanted to find a way to secure some benefits to cover up the losses of the Zeus academy.
After all, it wouldn't be too late before other academies get a hold of this information and they would start competing.
Right now, Zeus academy is in a vulnerable state. If the other academies find a way to trigger some conflict with Zeus academy, it will spell the end to them. So, Bloody Chariot is not interested in that conflict infested expedition.
He would rather take advantage of the information that he got before the other academies even became aware of this.
But the expenditure.
He decided to think it over a couple of days. After all, the threat from these unknown lineages is not exactly urgent at this point. He easily fended off the previous wave and the only accident happened because of an idiotic senior from the Thor academy.
Just when he was trying to compromise, a piece of news entered his ears. The Thor Academy is planning an expedition to their Third Grade Students ahead of the Inter Academy tournament. This expedition is also a last sprint before the competition begins.
This news was like a thunderclap to him.
A part of him told him that Gungnir definitely cracked this. But he also didn't want to accept that he lost the race. So, he wanted to confirm.
The only way to confirm that…. is of course going back to Hub.
"When did Gungnir ask you about decoding this?"
He asked Joker immediately.
"Why are you asking? By any chance did he crack the code before you did?"
Bloody Chariot's expression changed a bit. He didn't answer, but that face said all he needed to say.
"He asked before you. In fact, he even asked my help for dismantling the puppet."
"What did you do then?"
"What else? I cut a deal with him and helped him out."
"So, is it entirely possible for him to crack the chip before us?"
"Possible? I believe that he will do it. Otherwise, it would be a waste of the deal he made with me. He didn't pay a small price."
"Fuck"
The man who was so calm and cold as an ice ran back after cursing in front of Joker's projection. Sam almost laughed out loud as he watched Bloody Chariot run out of the Hub.
"We are making that space gate formation. Don't say anything to me. If you want resources, then I will go get you some. Just tell me, what you need. You have three hours, before you can give me that list."
He demanded the elders once again.
The Elders were dumbfounded. They didn't expect that Bloody Chariot will come back with such a decisive order. After all, from the previous meeting, they believed that Bloody Chariot would think this through and compromise.
But now, he came back yelling and even claimed that he would bring the materials they wanted.
They wondered why. But they could only swallow their questions and move on. They got ready to prepare the list to build that space. Within two and a half hours the list is ready and was presented in front of Bloody Chariot.
"You guys get started with whatever that we can spare from the academy's resources. I will be dropping off these things soon."
He immediately made a move and his first destination was Arita Family. One of the ten families that sent people to attack Sam. One of the families that sheltered one of the Dismissed elders. One of the families that is in conflict with the Vlachous family right now.
Sam is already delighted when he learned that the plan he made worked and the Vlachous family started facing heat from the nine families. He was still wondering if he should already take the big guns out since he doesn't have any means to increase the conflict bit by bit.
But Bloody Chariot with one impulsive decision made it very easy for Sam.
He directly barged into the Arita Family and demanded that they hand over the elder that they are sheltering. When they refused and tried to play word games with him, he beat the shit out of a couple of elders.
This caused a fight between the head of the family and Bloody Chariot.
Bloody Chariot won a victory so overwhelming that everyone felt like they were conned by the Arita family before. They could swallow the fact that the Arita family is one of the powerhouses that serve directly under the Zeus.
When the Zeus academy representative itself came and attacked them, even kidnapped someone that was in their custody and protection all the while even looting them of a bunch of stuff, they were pissed.
They immediately recalled their kin from the Zeus Academy. The other academy students were left there and only the Zeus academy students were brought back. Even though Bloody Chariot felt pained for the loss of the students, he couldn't give two shits about it.
The reason he went and picked that elder is because, that elder is one of the few people in charge of high level space gates of the academy. He used to maintain and repair the space gates and the main crime he committed frequently in the Zeus Academy is embezzling the resources needed to build the space gates.
He didn't even sell them or something, he just wanted those resources for his experiments and did as he wanted.
Now, Bloody Chariot beat that elder into a bloody pulp and got a hold of the whole stash that belonged to the elder. That was actually more than thirty percent of the resources required for the space gate.
The academy can spare another thirty. So, only forty more and he could get the resources he needed for the formation. Lucky for him, there are more families that he could piss off.
Sam was delighted when he saw this and even wanted to tear up the contract he made with Gungnir. After all, even with that leverage, just making Bloody Chariot do something like this is awesome.
And to Sam's further delight, Bloody Chariot used this opportunity and started collecting the debts that they owed him… i.e the Zeus academy and started recovering their treasury. Even though, the actual people who should be filling that treasury were very confused by Bloody Chariot's methods, they still let me be.
All of this is only adding fuel of the fire.
Sam didn't even have to lift a finger and everything went smoothly.
Bloody Chariot soon came back after offending everyone. That very night, the formation has already been moved up to the next phase.
Bloody Chariot couldn't wait to use it and go to that place. Maybe that was the most anticipating anyone has ever been about some Space gate formation.
He just hoped that it would be open and up to use as soon as possible.
And his hopes came true, the next day around noon, the formation was successfully completed and it is time to go for him and get what he desired the most at the moment.
