Chapter 1275 - The Holy Core

Chapter 1275 - The Holy Core

~Gulp!
The 2 men swallowed hard while staring at the scene in shock.
"Commander... What exactly is that thing?"
Commander Bonesaw squinted his eyes calmly: "That thing is Morgany's future!"
Eh?
The duo gave each other a brief look before following behind their leader as calmly as possible.
They looked calm, but deep within them, their entire bodies were trembling whenever they thought about things deeply.
That is... For the fact that their leader hadn't told them about it yet, meant that whatever that thing is, was definitely top-secret, that couldn't be said, probably until the thing got back safely to the Morg Head Association located in all 3 Capital cities in Morgany.
Yes. As many know, Morgany had just 3 empires; The empire of Abian (where Ren is from), the empire of Andorian (where the first Siege weapon was invented), and the empire of Klaus.
And within all 3 empires, some would find the same ȧssociations in all their Capital cities.
So each Morg empire shared knowledge with one another, unifying their continent as one
But if they met with enemies, got ambushed or had to take another voyage route, then they might end up closer to the other Morg entries instead.
Nonetheless, no matter which Capital city they headed to, this wouldn't be a problem because each empire had its representatives and people in the other memories, studying, teaching, researching and taking high positions in the various academies and Associations within Morgany.
So before the team got dispatched, letters had long been dispatched to the various researchers in the other empires, permitting them to hop aboard the research team once the thing arrived.
.
That's right. Finding this thing was a joint effort of all 3 empires.
So it was long agreed upon that once the thing was brought in, all 3 researchers on stand-by in each empire would hope aboard the scene like crazy.
What that meant was that if for example, the thing got to Abian's Capital successfully, the standby Researchers from Andorian and Klaus would join the research ah teams as fast as they could.
Of course, because a special Pirate unit was tasked with retrieving and doing the heavy lifting, they too had their own researchers who would also join in on the task.
Make no mistake. The Pirates were still Morgs. But, they also liked to get involved at the heart of all matters like these.
Why? Because those who aren't involved first hand, would have to wait for who-knows-how-long before they reaped a few benefits from it all.
But if they jumped in at the start, they would be the first group of people, along with the Monarchs, to taste the sweetened fruits of it all.
So how could they miss this chance?
No way! Their leader, who was one of the most feared people in Morgany, placed his foot down and joined in without worry.
Heh. What a joke!
Who could miss such a Godly opportunity?
The crumbs would go down to the lesser, and the chunky loaves of bread would get eaten by the sharp thinkers.
Sure. They say the patient dog gets the fatter bone.
But who wants to eat bone when they could pick out the fleshy meat and then discard the bones to the lesser ones below?
In particular, the pirates were the ones who actually solved the puzzle as to where this Holy core was hiding.
And it wasn't an easy task.
They had been trying to piece things out for over 500 years.
And it was only now that the last piece to the puzzle had been picked out and solved.
.
Grrrrrrr~~~
The men gritted their teeth hard while struggling to pull out whatever was hidden within.
Their muscles clenched hard, and even their entire breathing became heavy with every breath that they took.
And those at the end of the volcano kept staring at the item that was slowly being raised, as directing the king men on what to do.
A beauty!
The thing was strange.
From a single glance, the thing looked very majestic, as though it was something entirely out of this world.
Its ever-shining Golden surface was very hard to miss, even in this disastrous weather.
And maybe it was their imagination, but the things seemed to be giving off a compelling aura, as though they were standing right next to a God or something.
Strong! Very strong!
"It's coming! It's coming! Just a bit more!"
"Pull! Pull! Pull! Pull hard you some of b**ches!"
~Gwahhhh!
Bam!
The golden object was finally above the volcano, resting at its very tip.
"We did it! We did it! We finally yanked it out!"
"Hahahahahaha! Hooray for Morgany!"
(^0^)
.
The men all cheered briefly while feeling their bodies quake and ache hard.
Pulling that thing off was indeed the hardest bit of the task. And now, the simplest thing was to lean the item to the side and carefully roll it down the steep mountainside.
F***!
Some people's hands were already bleeding from all the pulling they had been doing.
It was as though they had been pulling a ship for a long impossible distance by hand.
But that wasn't all. It was best to imagine pulling a ship that was about to go down the thundering waves of a waterfall.
That is, do you know how much every day they used to do so by hand?
At the start of their pulling saga, gravity and the thing's weight had actually caused several people to get pulled in and fall off into falcons instead.
That's right. Some people had already died at the start, falling deep down the volcano's abyss.
So this moment was indeed a celebratory one for them.
It was just that, how could things go so smoothly, especially with how angered the Heavens were?
"Hooray! Hooray! We got it out!"
"Yes! Yes! Whether it's the heavens or even the devils themselves, who can stop us now?"
The men all cheered merrily when suddenly, a deadly lightning bolt struck the spot where the item rested.
Bam!
Instantly, everyone's face turned grim.
What was going on here?
