Chapter 1362 A Goal beyond a Goal
“System, any help here?” Ning asked. “It appears that if I don’t kill a Galactic Will, Nuclear energy will be out of my reaches forever.”
Ning let out an exasperated sigh. “That’s not very helpful,” he said with a self-mocking laugh. “Alright, tell me who is weak and where I can find that Galaxy.”
Ning frowned a little. “Don’t I just have to grab them? I did so with Genesis,” he said.
“Fine,” Ning said. “I’ll wait. Can you at least tell me how strong I will have to be at the minimum?”
“Okay,” Ning said. “Let’s wait until I’m that strong before I consider anything else then.”
From what Ning could gather after his experience with collecting the past two Constellations, he would have to kill at least 5 Constellations to reach a single Octillion of Energy.
“Is my body strong enough to handle that? Or should I make myself stronger?” Ning asked.
Ning let out a deep sigh. “Well, at least I have something else to look forward to after this,” he said as he stretched around a little. “Time to return then.”
He teleported, arriving next to the shore where the group of the newly arrived humans were in absolute disarray. They didn’t know what they were supposed to do there now that the person who was supposed to take care of them had disappeared along with another strong individual.
Ning’s arrival gave them some hope and some panic as well. Ning’s eyes fell on the old man who had been choked by Indebiss earlier, who still held his neck in pain. A single wave from Ning’s arm healed the man and then he focused on the rest of the people.
“My name is Ning,” he shouted out loud for everyone to hear. “And I will take care of you all on this planet on behalf of Farhalys.”
At Farhalys’ name, everyone showed signs of relief.
Ning spoke some more words to make everyone feel more relieved and they started handing out tents and rations that they would have to keep for the time being.
The sun was slowly climbing to the sky and the air was already hot, but even the hot temperature was mild to these people whose sun had grown large and hot and the world had died due to that.
Ning helped them set up the tent and walked around to see what the individual people needed. He healed those who were hurt, and gave medicine to those who were sick.
He soon realized that Indebiss had teleported them here without taking their belongings, so he teleported to the empty ship that still orbited the planet and brought everything down from the ship, leaving the ship bare of even that now.
The ship itself Ning destroyed and brought down the parts of it so the people could use the metals from it for whatever they would require. The ship was made of the most quality metals that could be found, and so it would be a great resource.
Ning had in fact originally planned on keeping the ship for himself. He had learned just how easy it was to travel with the thing when he took over the ship and went to sleep.
However, the system had mentioned that since he had so much more energy now, he couldn’t use the ship as a vessel as it was not capable of storing that much energy and would instead force him to lose it.
That was a sad fact that Ning had to face, but at least that had given him an idea for when he needed to travel long distances in the future. An investment like that would be amazing certainly.
The temperature got to around 42 degrees at the peak before the sun sloped down toward the southwest where it disappeared in the horizon. Ning was surprised night even fell in this place, but it was hard to call it a night. In the first place, the sun had only gone down far enough that it wasn’t visible. It still lit up the sky like an evening and didn’t get any darker.
Worse than that, the evening lasted for only about 5 hours before the sun rose back again.
Thankfully, something wonderful happened before the sun was back up. A cool breeze flew from the north, bringing with it a fantastic chill in the air that dropped the temperature of the shoreline by at least 10 degrees, making everyone quite happy.
The temperature went back up after the sun came back up, but the thought of the night breeze left everyone with hope for their survival in this place.
Sleep was going to be a problem for these people, but they would certainly adapt to it soon.
The 24 settlement chiefs gathered 3 hours after sunrise and Ning gave them each a map of the locations around the area. He had marked around 80 locations which was very habitable for the groups.
The 24 chiefs chose where they wanted to go one by one, and soon they started moving. Ning made sure they had everything they needed on their journey when each one of them made their way to these settlements.
He was the last person remaining on the shoreline by midday now that everyone had left. He looked to the north and sighed.
Now that he had killed their Godking, it was time to go help them as well.
