Mike let out a deep breath. He looked out the window, but his mood was not calm. He had only fought against a small Bart Family, yet he needed to expend so much effort to reclaim the Otherworld. He was somewhat confident, but there were also a lot of uncertainties.

Mike knew that strong people could breed more strong people. Strong people attracted strong people, so there were more strong people. If there were very few strong people in a region, then there was a high probability that it would not have too many strong experts. In other words, there would not be
too many experts.

In the past, Otherworld was considered the weakest among the four regions. The reason was that it was an independent High-level world, and there were only four divine-tier experts. The total number of heaven-tier experts did not exceed 2,000. That was why it had been taken over by the Dark Magi in a
short period of time.

However, things were different now. The Dark Magi had moved their headquarters to the Otherworld, and countless heaven-tier and high-tier military experts had entered the Otherworld. Even the number of divine-tier experts had increased. Mike understood that there was not much time left for him.
He had to take over the Otherworld, and he had to join forces with other divine powers in order to do so.

Mike understood that although he had this High-level lifeblood, ordinary people were like grains of sand to a powerhouse who could pass through the planar barrier. Who would care about the life and death of grains of sand? Mike knew that he had to take out another bargaining chip in order to come to
the negotiating table and speak with those skilled negotiators.

Mike sighed, walked to the table, and slowly sat down.
Bart woke up not long after. He glanced at Mike and left.

A day had passed and the four beasts had returned to Mike’s body. The Mysterious Beast, Black Dragon and Eva had been hurt to varying degrees. Although Eve was not hurt, some of the barriers had been deeply dented.

Indeed, where there was oppression, there was resistance.

Mike summoned Eve and asked, “How is it? is the resistance serious?”

Eve shook her head and said, “Most of the Bart Family members still have some backbone. There are not as many spineless cowards as we thought, so the number might be a little less.”

“How many are there?”

Eve stammered, “87… of course, this is only what we found. There must be some who are hiding. It won’t be long before they come out on their own.”

Mike nodded and said, “There’s not much time left for us. We have to hurry up and clear all the obstacles on the High-level Summoning Realm. Only then can we enter the Middle Sky Pivot Point in peace and find Master Kelly. Then, we can find the way to get you home.”
Eve nodded and said, “You don’t have to tell me this. I understand. I can wait. I can wait for a long time.”

Mike smiled. “I won’t let you wait for too long.”

A touch of gratitude flashed across Eve’s eyes. She looked at Mike and asked, “Should we go and see how fatty is doing with the inventory?”

Mike nodded and said, “Of course.”

Mike came to the Great Castle. Everyone bowed to him. Mike smiled and nodded. He came to Little Jerry and asked, “How’s the counting?”
Little Jerry excitedly held the account book and said, “We’re rich. This is only the wealth of the Northern Region, and it’s already so much. This time, not only can we pay off our debts, but we can also expand our scale and recruit more experts.”

Mike looked at the numbers on the account book and was secretly surprised. This Bart Family had 4.3 million gold coins in the Northern Region castle, and tens of thousands of various heaven-tier Magic Beast Essence Crystals. There are countless kinds of precious materials. There were even three
divine-grade Magic Beast Essence Crystals!”

Mike took a deep breath to not make a fool of himself. He understood that he had really struck it rich this time.
Mike said to Little Jerry, “You must make good use of this wealth. Also, quickly send people to count the wealth of other places. Don’t let the other divine powers get there first.”

Little Jerry nodded and said, “Understood. I’ve already sent the Bart Family and our accountant to other cities. At the same time, I’ve issued an announcement to the other divine powers. Anyone who dares to rob the Bart Family’s wealth will become our enemy.”
Hearing this, Mike nodded and said, “That’s good.”

Mike and Little Jerry walked on the newly renovated street. Little Jerry looked at Mike and asked, “When are you going to the Northern Region?”

Mike said, “I’m leaving today. I don’t know how long I’ll be gone for. After that, I’ll leave everything in the Dragon Castle to you.”

Little Jerry nodded and said, “Alright, by the way, there’s one thing I don’t understand. Can you give me an answer?”

Mike nodded and said, “If you have any questions, just say it.”

Little Jerry asked, “Tell me the truth. What exactly is your purpose in starting this battle?”

Mike was about to speak when he heard Little Jerry say, “Don’t tell me it’s to take down the Bart Family or something. I won’t believe it.”

“Aiya…” Mike rubbed his head and said to Little Jerry, “Busted.”

He looked at Little Jerry and slowly sai
counterattack against the Otherworld.”

“Actually, the goal is very simple. It’s to find out the true combat ability of the castles. I want to select the true talent… and so on and so forth. In short, we’ll eliminate those who don’t do anything and promote those with great strength to prepare for the

Little Jerry frowned and said, “If we do that, won’t it arouse the Dark Magis vigilance?”

“Vigilance?” Mike sneered, he said, “Why do you see things so lightly now? Do you think that if we don’t engage in this battle, the Dark Magi won’t be vigilant against us? You’re wrong. Ever since they found out that I didn’t die, they became vigilant. This battle is within their expectations. The only possible
change is that they might deploy corresponding tactics or methods according to my ability.”

Little Jerry shook his head and said, “I reserve my opinion.”
“Alright.” Mike smiled and patted little Jerry’s shoulder, he said, “The battle has already been fought. There’s no need to worry about what consequences it will bring, What we need to do now is to use the reputation that we have gained during this period of time to quickly absorb some talents.”
Little Jerry said, “I’m already doing this. Moreover, I’ve arranged those absolutely trustworthy people into a special team. I haven’t announced it, but their strength is top-tier.”

Mike nodded and said, “Very good. I’m relieved to have you.”

Little Jerry nodded.

Mike said, “I should go. Take care.”

Little Jerry nodded and said to Mike, “Tl wait for you in the Norther Region.”

Mike smiled. He soared into the sky and flew toward the east.

After Mike left, the smile on Little Jerry’s face gradually disappeared. He called his trusted aide and said to him, “Get a few of our people into the Bart Family. Keep an eye on their movements. Also, gather the other leaders of the wealthy families in the Northern Region. I want to discuss the distribution of
the northern region with them..”
