The Price Ebony Paid

The new offer from Dark Nether Death God and Duolie has finally been delivered to Ebony.

This list has many more items than the last one.

The will that Ebony separated lingered at the bottom for a moment, its expression growing increasingly grim.

What he wanted was for those two guys to come in person.

However, the other party's apparent enthusiasm at this moment was clearly more driven by their desire for the resources and wealth they were about to acquire.

"Weren't the previous conditions enough?" Ebony asked in a deep voice.

When contact was made with the other side, the Dark Nether Death God did not respond immediately.

It's Duolie; let's first unfold the battlefield locations in the Darkness Sword Time-Space.

"Both the Mechanical God Emperor and Locke are here. You couldn't have sent us here with just yourselves, could you?"

Several additional areas requiring additional accommodation appeared next to the list.

This also includes the replenishment of subsequent legions, as well as the necessary supplies for the two Lord of Dimension during their interdimensional battles.

Ebony knew, of course, that all of this would come at a price.

However, the newly acquired Cutting-Edge Resources cannot be explained simply by supplying the legion.

He reached out and crossed one of the items out.

"This batch is not included."

Duolie glanced at it, but didn't argue immediately. Instead, he switched to another resource.

Ebony's expression grew even more somber.

This guy really knows what he has!

The information left behind during past transactions has now become the basis for the other party to demand a price from him.

"I need a specific time," Ebony said.

This time, the Dark Nether Death God finally spoke.

"Once the Jieyin is ready and the first batch of resources is delivered, we will depart."

"I need your personal presence to assist me," Ebony emphasized again.

The Dark Nether Death God nodded.

Duolie didn't remain ambiguous any longer, and a Rule Mark belonging to him appeared next to the list that was not yet fully finalized.

Their responses caused Ebony to loosen his grip on the longsword slightly.

Ahead, the Destruction Flames and the silvery-gray light continued to collide.

The Myriad Manifestations Eternal Lord has already taken on a lot of pressure for him, but it's not enough to make Locke withdraw voluntarily.

Ebony reviewed the remaining conditions again and ultimately only kept some of the newly added requirements.

That's all. If you want more, I'd rather send it to another Dimensional Time-Space.

The Dark Nether Death God did not add any more.

Duolie's eyes flickered, and he also agreed to the terms.

They wanted to get more, but they also needed to ensure that Ebony was able to continue paying.

Deep within the Darkness Sword Time-Space, several previously unopened storage areas have successively received orders personally delivered by Ebony.

The resources sealed inside are completely different from the legion supplies commonly found on the front lines.

The mere removal of a single seal unleashed the primordial radiance, causing the surrounding darkness to undulate continuously.

The local powerhouses originally responsible for guarding these positions had no bargaining power.

One by one, the primordial seals were reactivated, and a large amount of resources entered the specialized transportation device, converging on the Jieyin Zone along the internal routes that had not yet been attacked.

Some of it was what Ebony intended to keep for himself to continue accumulating power.

Now everything has to be sent out first.

His wealth certainly wasn't completely depleted in such a short time, but once some resources were taken out, it's uncertain when he'll be able to gather another batch.

Moreover, it's not just Dark Nether Death God and Duolie who are in front of us.

The legions from Thunder Domain Time-Space and Card Time-Space have arrived, and behind every newly stabilized defensive zone lies a corresponding need for reinforcements.

In addition to the original Source-Devouring Reinforcements, Ebony is now almost simultaneously supplying expeditionary forces from several Dimensional Plane.

These things, normally remaining in their respective Mother Time-Space, might not be very noticeable.

Now that the expenses are concentrated on him, they seem particularly staggering.

A new resource allocation record was delivered to the will of Ebony.

The harvests from the few remaining production areas that have not yet fallen will have been secured for a considerable period of time.

Legions that could have continued to expand outwards were forced to remain internally to ensure the transport of these resources.

Ebony glanced at the record but didn't look at it a second time.

"Send it out first."

He will need those two people in the upcoming war.

The communication between Saine and Locke was not interrupted by the frontline battles.

The battle reports sent by Skynet were compressed by Saine into several key footage segments, which were then transmitted to the Eternal Day Time-Space and the Limitless Time-Space respectively.

The Thunder of the Thunder Myriad Law Thunder Emperor and the defensive zone re-deployed by the Paper Figure Dimension Lord are both included.

The first to respond was the Lord of Eternal Day.

"I can go," he said.

Locke's Destruction Will had already connected with this communication. He wasn't surprised by the Lord of Eternal Day's direct attitude.

The conflict between the Eternal Day Time-Space and the Darkness Sword Organization has never been truly resolved.

The Lord of Eternal Day has not forgotten the incident that Jin Yi suffered not long ago.

Now that Myriad Law Thunder Emperor has sided with Ebony, it's not appropriate for him to stay in the rear and let Saine and Locke bear all the pressure.

The Lord of Eternal Day then inquired about the location of his legion's encampment.

Instead of including the entire occupied area, Saine pointed out two locations where homeland defenses had been cleared and which were far from the core battleground. These locations could be used to receive transport forces first, and then move them forward along existing mechanized air routes.

After reviewing the records, the Lord of Eternal Day divided the legions that were originally scheduled to enter simultaneously into several groups.

He was willing to participate in the war, but he was not prepared to let his subordinates, who had not yet gained a foothold, directly collide with the aftermath of the clash Lord of Dimension.

"The legion will proceed along the existing route first," Saine said. "The Jieyin Zone needs expansion; once the forward positions are adjusted, it will be able to withstand your forces."

The Lord of Eternal Day nodded, and then sent the forces he was prepared to deploy to the liaison center.

This record was quickly received by Skynet.

The response from the Limitless Golden Emperor came a little later.

Instead of asking how many Lord of Dimension were on the other side, he looked at the Source Star regions that the Darkness Sword Time-Space had already explored.

One particular spot caught his eye for a moment.

"Is this still in Ebony's hands?"

"That's the case for now," Saine replied.

"Then include it," said the Limitless Golden Emperor. "I will bring the legion there, but you must leave me a place where I can hold my ground."

Locke did not refuse.

He had worked with Limitless Golden Emperor for so many years that they were already very familiar with each other's habits.

Their ability to fight side by side was based on their shared efforts and the common distribution of the spoils of war.

A portion of the existing Spoils of War will be used first, and the remaining profits will be distributed according to each party's contribution. Several points that needed to be confirmed in advance were quickly settled during the communication.

As for the resource area that the Limitless Golden Emperor had his eye on, it had not yet been seized, so it could not be considered something already in his possession.

He did not make such a request.

"I'll go over there and see how long those guys plan to keep guarding Ebony," said the Limitless Golden Emperor.

The golden light from the connection then spread outwards.

The new order to launch the expedition has been transmitted to the Limitless Time-Space.

Behind the Mechanical Civilization, several large Engineering Platform that were not yet fully deployed were repurposed.

The passageway used Jieyin Transport Ship is clearly not capable of directly withstanding the cross-dimensional invasion of Lord of Dimension.

Saine sent the new rule parameters into Skynet, and the several Mechanical Nodes that had already stabilized began to extend to the outer perimeter.

Some of the Transport Facilities were moved, and the positions originally reserved for subsequent legions were reassigned.

In the areas controlled by the Destruction Divine Kingdom, a large amount of pre-stockpiled resources were sent there.

Newly arrived allies do not need to fight for a foothold from scratch.

However, they also lacked the convenience of Ebony personally opening up the local authority. Even though Locke had controlled many areas along the way, he could not make this universe fully accept the Lord of Dimension from outside.

Saine must first fortify the locations vulnerable to attacks from Local Power.

After several rounds of scheduling, the light system and the golden rule-based radiance appeared in the center of the two Jieyin Platform respectively.

The forces that entered first began to verify their origin connections one by one, preparing for the true arrival that followed.

No new orders to march were issued from the direction where the Creation God and the Evil Spirit King were located.

While reinforcements can be increased at the front lines, the rear cannot be left completely empty.

Locke did not summon all the allies he could contact at once, despite Ebony's repeated requests for help.

Let's put the power of the Lord of Eternal Day and the Limitless Golden Emperor into practice first.

In the Primordial Universe Time-Space, the World-Realm Emperor Monarch also received dispatch messages from his side one after another.

It mentions that the Darkness Sword Time-Space is expanding Jieyin, and that the World-Devouring Emperor Monarch is facing Mechanical God Emperor.

There are also brief records from the front lines regarding the reinforcements from the Myriad Phenomena Community.

After reviewing it, the World-Realm Emperor Monarch moved one of the copies to the side.

This war has become larger than he initially estimated.

However, he did not therefore set off for the Darkness Sword Time-Space.

The resources that have not yet been delivered will still be sent out according to the original plan. As for the newly acquired residence area of Rift-Splitting Emperor Monarch, the World-Realm Emperor Monarch glanced at it and then temporarily put away the records.

On the other side, in the mechanical Jieyin Zone of Darkness Sword Time-Space, the first burst of intense light finally crossed the passage.

The Engineering Platform that had been waiting behind slowly moved aside to both sides.
