Chapter 222
"You could, on your own, try to find worlds to conquer, but most worlds you will find will do nothing to help the growth of your world. High-level worlds, while plentiful, are hard to find. That is the case for worlds like yours with no knowledge or experience. But for other high-level worlds with the necessary experience, it’s the opposite; all they need to do is pick one and hope the one they picked isn’t too strong," Murmur said, chuckling eerily.
Ikenga floated down as he said to Murmur, "Your proposal then has something to do with helping us with the knowledge on finding other worlds?"
Murmur’s eyes gleamed with a mix of amusement and cunning as he responded, "Indeed. My proposal is to help your world’s growth and turn your current passiveness into action."
Ikenga tilted his head slightly, considering Murmur’s words. "And what would you gain from this arrangement? Your help doesn’t seem entirely altruistic."
Murmur chuckled, a deep, resonant sound that echoed through the chamber. "It might seem like my help is for nothing, but for me, it gives me a fighting chance in claiming your world as mine."
"After my last defeat at the hands of your sister Keles, I considered self-destructing and exposing your world’s location to the abyss. But I couldn’t do that in the end since I also need this world for my growth."
"My proposal is my last attempt for this world. If I gain nothing from it, then I apologize for my future actions," Murmur said, chuckling evilly.
Ikenga’s eyes narrowed. Murmur frowned as the ground where his throne stood suddenly transformed into a huge plant mouth with sharp teeth and boiling acid further down the throat.
The plant mouth shut quickly, but Ikenga frowned as he looked slightly upward, where Murmur and his throne reappeared after a moment.
