The Tale of the Void Emperor

Chapter 429 - Hold The Fortress. Max.



" So that's your choice. Are you sure? You would need the complete cloud of chaos to make full use of it. " 

Athan grinned and nodded, " I'm sure. Anyway, I will get the complete cloud of chaos soon. "

The black genie revealed a surprised expression, " How come? The only way to get the complete cloud of chaos is to...so you also broke that record, huh? "

Athan nodded as the black Genie passed the palm-sized golden ring with colorful aura swirling inside it to him.

" Put a drop of your blood on this ring and then infuse your soul energy into it. "

Athan cut his finger slightly before dropping a bit of blood on the ring. He then infused his soul energy into the ring.

Right after that, The Nimbus Aurora floated and moved towards Athan's forehead before merging inside it.

Seeing this, Black Genie spoke with a smile, " This special artifact now will be stored inside your chaos region even if it's not capable of storing other things. Awesome right?  Oh wait...You already have a special physique that can store things. " Genie shook his head before continuing, " Anyway, just watch; it will work right away since you are using currently the cloud of chaos. "

Athan had closed his eyes as he was sensing the Nimbus Aurora inside the void region glowing sharply.

The golden ring turned liquid while the colorful aura that was inside the ring was mixed into the liquid before it came out from his void region ( With his permission. ) and moved towards the cloud of chaos on which he was sitting.

Athan activated Chaos Matrix as he used Lightning Dust Chaos Body to float while controlling the cloud of chaos to move in front of him to see its transformation.

At this moment, The cloud of chaos was rapidly changing its color while glowing. This lasted for just one second, but it rapidly changed its color many times while glowing in that one second.

But in the end, It turned into a white cloud that it was before. 

Athan smiled as he sat on it.  Even though the cloud remained the same, He could feel the power of the cloud of chaos increasing many folds.

For now, The only thing he could do with this cloud was to fly, and its speed directly increased by five times the previous speed.

"Khakhaka...Actually, a great choice, lad. Just wait until you get your complete cloud of chaos. You will be very surprised. " Black Genie spoke while loudly laughing as he waved his right hand and materialized a door beside Athan.

" You can now go, lad. And look forward to the many new abilities of Cloud of Chaos as you master it a step at a time after getting the complete version. "

Athan nodded with a faint smile as he opened the door and entered through it before arriving back in Slaughter in Space's event lobby.

" Is he Athan Void? "

" Maybe? Just let someone ask him. "

" Yeah, The previous person who came out was not Athan, while this one may not be him too, and the real Athan might still be inside talking to that genie and getting rewards. "

Athan saw all people looking at him, and a human man who had a dashing appearance with spike light green hair walked over to him before asking with a smile, " Hello, Brother. Are you Athan Void? "

Hearing the question, Athan nodded with a doubt, " I am indeed called Athan. But how do you know? "

" So he is the one. Dang...I told that you all that he might do good since That cold beauty spoke to him. "

" But that score...will anyone able to break it in the future? "

" Haaah, There's always a higher mountain. Someone like him might come here in the future too, who knows? "

...

" Hi, I am Max. As for how everyone knows your name..." Max wryly smiled before showing his black card to Athan, " Anyone who has attempted this event at least once and got a score will be notified when someone break's an All-time high record.  "

" Ohh..." Athan nodded and asked with a grin, " So? Anything else? "

Max laughed as he put his black card inside the storage ring, " Hahaha. I guess that was your first attempt because you didn't get notified when Linci broke the All-time high record just thirty-plus minutes ago. "

" Indeed. It was my first attempt. " Athan nodded with a smile.

" Well, then. Let's go to the second event lobby. You don't mind If I come with you, right? " Max asked with a grin. 

Athan shook his head with a smile as he started walking towards the exit, " Do whatever you want. "

Max beamed hearing that and followed Athan before catching up to him as they both left this event lobby of Slaughter in Space.

" I didn't see you previously. Were you recruited by any Hill Decons or Masters. ? " Max asked with curiosity as he and Athan moved towards the Event lobby that was just twenty steps beside the event lobby of Slaughter in Space.

" Nobody recruited me. I am from the batch of new recruits that arrived here today. " Athan answered without looking at Max as he continued to move while looking at the board of second event's name on top of the doors leading into the lobby.

[ Hold the Fortress. ]

" What! Are you from the latest batch that arrived today? Seriously? If that's the case, then you broke that frigging record too...dang. " Max spoke with shock on his face.

But the shock quickly turned into a beaming smile as he asked, " What did you choose as your reward after breaking the All-time high record of Slaughter In Space? "

" Naturally, I chose the Nimbus Aurora. " Athan spoke in a matter of factly.

Max nodded as he looked at Athan's back, ' It looks like this guy as powerful as those top rankers. I wonder which Hill faction he will join? ' 

They soon arrived in front of the doors and entered the event lobby of Hold the Fortress. This place looked exactly the same as the previous one with gothic-style four doors and many tables.

Athan registered his entry by scanning his black card on the monolith at the corner of this lobby before he and Max sat down on an empty table.

This time, Athan decided to eat something as he looked at the menu.

Max saw that Athan was looking at the menu and spoke with a laugh, " Wait. Lemme order the dishes since I tried most of these. "

Athan raised his eyebrows before he grinned and leaned back on the chair, " Alright. Go ahead. "
