After Jiang Qi arrived in Gear Time-Space, he stayed for quite a while.
His trip was not only on behalf of the Evil Swamp Halls; he had also brought a request from the Evil Spirit King.
After the Destruction Time-Space War ended, Locke had seized authority over a star zone in that extreme destruction dimension and used the Seal on the Level-12 Destruction Creatures as stepping stones to continue infiltrating deeper destruction nodes. This had remained a thorn in the Evil Spirit King's heart.
It was impossible for the Evil Spirit King to remain unmoved by this.
Both were latecomers, both faced the vast authority left behind by a Native Dimension Lord.
Locke had already put down his roots in Destruction Time-Space. Naturally, the Evil Spirit King had turned his thoughts to Evil Swamp Time-Space.
The Lord of Evil Swamp was still asleep, but slumber did not mean he no longer existed.
Even now, the true Dominator of Evil Swamp Time-Space remained like a shadow weighing upon the Evil Spirit King's heart.
Of course, as long as the Lord of Evil Swamp had not fully awakened, the Evil Spirit King still had a chance to keep gnawing away at that authority.
Yet relying on the Evil Spirit King alone, achieving that would not be easy.
Evil Swamp Time-Space was not ownerless ruins. Though its origin had suffered repeated wars and internal strife, its deepest reaches were still filled with traces left behind by the Lord of Evil Swamp in the past.
Recklessly touching those deep nodes would very likely alert him ahead of time.
Thus, the Evil Spirit King once again sought Saine's help.
After hearing Jiang Qi's request, Saine nodded.
"He wants to borrow my Node Engineering to continue dismantling the deep authority of Evil Swamp Time-Space," Saine said
