'They're ripping us off!' The Dolk Realm Champion thought before sighing at how calm Krune and Wally were, despite facing against three Champions.
He then understood that their prices were perfectly at the limit of what he would have accepted, alarmed when the thought struck him.
After all, it meant that Krune and Wally had a good grasp of their nature, despite them only having brief contact. 'No, it's not us that they understand. Instead, it's the Greater Universe's situation at hand that they have a good grasp of. At this moment, the price they said makes sense. If this were during the peaceful times, I could have only paid one large Satellite Realm and one small Satellite Realm for this transaction.'
It was apparent that the Garg Realm and the Mong Realm were about to take action soon enough. So, before that happened, they had to fully gear up. Otherwise, they would be gobbled up sooner or later.
Until now, no realm had annexed another realm, as they were all developing and had yet to attain their full capacity. But now that the Mong Realm created a precedent, having reached full development and also annexing one-tenth of the Tilk Realm, the other realms began to follow suit.
Even though they didn't have the capacity to annex another realm, they were gunning to reach that point eventually.
Therefore, the moment these two Greater Realms took action, the Greater Universe would enter a chaotic era of war and annexing that would cause the realm size of the victors to increase without limit.
And the bigger they grew, the stronger they became, making it easier for them to annex other realms.
After thinking through everything, the Dolk Realm Champion made eye contact with the other two Champions before gazing at Krune and Wally, nodding in response. "Alright, we accept the conditions."
"We'll ask for one Satellite Realm in advance," Wally said. "And after every one-fifth of the task is completed, we'll ask for a Satellite Realm."
"I'm fine with that." The Dolk Realm Champion nodded in response, saying, "Give us a month to prepare the first Satellite Realm to gift."
"Sure," Wally nodded in response. "We'll also prepare the things required to awaken the Realm Spirit of the Geho Realm."
"Here's to our cooperation." The Dolk Realm Champion smiled as he shook hands with Wally and Krune. The Fon Realm Champion and the Lak Realm Champion also did the same before the two wisps left through the Rune Realm's portal.
Once they left, the three Champions began discussing, making the required preparations.
"The Satellite Realm we'll be selling shouldn't be that special," the Dolk Realm Champion stated. "The Kun Realm only specified the level of foundation required in the Satellite Realm but not the laws. So, we'll shave away areas with laws that none of us use."
"Yeah, that's the plan." The Fon Realm Champion nodded in response.
"But, it's not like we only need to use our Satellite Realms, right?" The Lak Realm Champion said all of a sudden.
"I've thought of that as well. But any action we take might alert the other powers." The Dolk Realm Champion sighed in response.
"So what?" The Lak Realm Champion snorted. "If we hold ourselves back, we'll never become a major power even after become a Major Realm. We need to take some risks. Besides..."
She said assuringly, "The Mong Realm is still in the process of digesting their gains while the Garg Realm seems to be doing something similar. As the Kun Realm is helping us, it means there aren't any powers that could realistically face us."
"You make a point there." The Dolk Realm Champion's eyes lit up in surprise.
After all, even though there were quite a few realms with a Realm Spirit, none of them were strong, not strong enough to face either of their realms freely, not to mention face the TTT.
Moreover, the position of their realm wasn't that good, leading to a poorer production of resources. So, even with a Realm Spirit, the total number of Gods in such realms only numbered in the hundreds.
This was in sharp contrast to the Kun Realm that crossed two hundred in number the moment their Realm Spirit came into being. This was because they were positioned in an advantageous location with plenty of spatial storms approaching them nonstop.
But most of all, these spatial storms were at a level of power that the Kun Realm could handle the energy absorption of.
In contrast, the realms with a Realm Spirit they were speaking about were located in more dangerous locations where the realms had to expend most of their power to guard themselves against the spatial storms' destructive ability.
This meant very less resource production.
Some realms were located in locations with sparse spatial storms, resulting in a lack of energy absorption.
And this was considering realms with a Realm Spirit. As for other normal realms, they weren't even a concern.
If not for the significant travel distance involved, raiding them would have been damn easy. The Mong Realm would have devoured them all by now if they had been situated closer to it.
"Do you have a realm in mind?" The Dolk Realm Champion asked, expressing his doubt. "Still, the task would be mountainous."
"No, that's where you're wrong." The Lak Realm Champion smirked in response. "We won't target any Satellite Realms themselves, for they're very rare and situated too far away. Even the travel costs would surpass the worth of these Satellite Realms. Instead, I have a better idea."
As the eyes of the other two Champions lit up in response, the Lak Realm Champion continued speaking, "We'll target the Sub-Realms of the weak realms and then make our Realm Spirits devour them. We'll make them a part of our respective realms before breaking them off to form a Satellite Realm. This is a faster process, and with three Realm Spirits, we can multitask at a terrifying pace."
"Haha, that's a sound plan." The eyes of the Dolk Realm Champion glinted with a cunning light. "This way, we won't be using up our foundation while also gaining experience in fragmenting our realms."
"And thanks to the Geho Realm's power, attaching the broken fragments would be pretty simple. We won't lose much."
