Chapter 329 Unification of Amalgamation of Will
Chapter 329 Unification of Amalgamation of Will
Three years later,
In the floating castle, Maximus, who was leisurely reading a book, suddenly felt a movement in the Amalgamation of Will.
"Huh?"
After careful inspection, he noticed the Amalgamation of Will seemed to improve, forming a complete cycle.
In the whole Curse Continent, he felt the dense will of people coming to him.
"Is the great immigration done?"
Three years ago, he moved all the people in the Westle Empire to the Moonlight Forest.
Maximus thought this would be an easy thing, as a single tier 9 ship could accommodate trillions of people.
However, he underestimated the difficulty of moving.
Loading and capacity are different.
Although the tier 9 ship could indeed accommodate trillions of people.
The logistics, support, and time needed to fill that up could take up months.
Furthermore, cities and infrastructure in the Moonlight Forest were still under construction.
Priority must also be given to the original people of the Moonlight Empire to move, further delaying the immigration.
He also underestimated the number of people from the previous Westle Empire.
Occupying all of the continent besides the Sun Sea region where the Moonlight Empire is, the Westle Empire had a population of over three quadrillion.
This is still because of the war and chaos decreasing the number of people.
The forceful conquest of the Westle Empire probably decreased the population of the Curse Continent by at least 30 percent.
There are also those top empires who escape once they caught wind of the Westle Empire.
Overall, if not for the war, there would probably be 4-5 quadrillion population in the Cursed Continent.
It might seem a lot; however, compared to the landmass of the continent, it was nothing.
Even the three quadrillion people coming to the Moonlight Forest were but a drop in the ocean.
They couldn't even occupy a percentage of land, even with all those people.
Of course, this is also because of the lack of infrastructure and industries.
Maximus expected that industries would boom in the coming tens to hundreds of years, rapidly occupying the land.
Feeling the changes in the Amalgamation of Will, a surprise flashed into his eyes.
"I can control the continent?"
This control was like holding the key to a car; with his will, the?land would move at his fingertips.
Mountains and seas, trees and forests, weather and climate would form at his will.
The mana, minerals, vegetation, could be moved and transferred freely.
In the Cursed Continent, he was like a god who could control everything.
"This is amazing!"
It even surpasses what Amalgamation of Will is capable of.
Terraforming the land at your will on such a large mass of land is like creating the world.
Even his domain, which could do and create everything, was lackluster in comparison.
His energy is limited; thus, even though his domain could spread all over the world.
The area that he could control and manipulate at one time was limited.
Such an absurd thing was, of course,?not entirely due to the Amalgamation of Will.
The Cursed Continent was once a complete world that was integrated into the Etherium Realm.
As the ruler of such a land, with all the beings in the land believing in him, he is equivalent to the god or creator of the dimension.
As the creator, the land was like his body that he could control
Besides terraforming the land, the unity of people also brought the efficiency of the Amalgamation of Will production to multitudes of degrees.
In the past, at least a hundred ordinary people were needed to produce a unit Amalgamation of Will.
Now, just an ordinary person could produce one.
The will that tier 1 mages and knights could produce regularly also shot up from one to ten.
For tier 2, they could produce 10; tier 3 is a thousand; tier 5 is ten thousand; tier 6 is a hundred thousand; tier 7 is a million; tier 8 is a hundred million.
The efficiency was multiplied a dozen to a hundred times.
He then studied how the efficiency of the Amalgamation of Will multiplied.
After some probing, he noticed that the Amalgamation of Will was directly absorbed by him.
There was no loss whatsoever; all the energy produced by an individual was fully intact.
Seeing this, he nodded in satisfaction.
As the clock ticked, he counted the Amalgamation of Will being sent to him and counted how much he would get daily.
...
A day later, his eyes widened in shock.
"Over a hundred quadrillion?!"
One had to know that a Monarch Abyss Crystal could only produce about a quadrillion units of energy equivalent to system points.
With a one-to-one ratio, a hundred quadrillion Amalgamation of Will is equivalent to a Monarch Abyss.
"Crazy!"
This is still because the majority of people were mortal.
The one who gave him the bulk of the Amalgamation of Will was the original residence of the Moonlight Empire.
With over a trillion people in at least tier 3 realm, it was already a hundred quadrillion in an instant.
Initially, he was worried about the coming invasion of the Abyss, not giving himtime to modify the Myriad World Mall.
But now, with such a huge amount of system points.
He could turn the Myriad World Mall into flowers, and they wouldn't even recognize it as the same thing.
"Huh~ It seems that it's time to change plans..."
Originally, he wanted to stay low-key for a while and silently cultivate the Moonlight Empire.
However, with such a large amount of benefits, he decided to go all out.
Money, resources, knowledge—he was ready to give it all out.
Maximus had only one plan: population, population, population.
Quality didn't matter; Maximus only wanted quantity.
More people mean more talent and more talents mean more system points.
He planned to incentivize giving birth with generous rewards.
If the children brought were talented enough, Maximus could even increase the reward.
Maximus also planned to poach people from various continents, whether the Arcane Continent, the Divine Continent, or the Beast Continent.
Poaching people is the way to go; slowly nurturing them is time-consuming.
Of course, this would also cost much more, but with the reward, he was willing to bear this cost.
The only problem is how these continents would react.
Poaching people from different continents?
This was such an unconventional idea that he didn't know how they would react.
Although it seemed that each continent was open and free, the differences between them were enormous.
Even the closest continent to them, the Arcane Continent, had significant differences.
It's like a first-world country compared to a barren village.
Even if he took out a large sum of money, he may not even poach several people from that continent.
After all, although the rewards are high, who would be foolish enough to live in barren land?
As for the Divine Continent?
Those gods were crazy about population; how could they just hand it over to him?
Even more so for the Beast Continent; they were a different species.
Immigrating out of their land to live in his Human Empire?
Isn't that looking for abuse?
However, despite these difficulties, Maximus planned to take a long-term look at this.
Maybe by then, he could think of a solution to this problem.
Thinking of this, the land construction needed to be hastened.
He can't have people living in the woods any longer.
After all, without a place, how could they have time to make children?
Earlier, he prevented the Shadow Hunter Guild from helping because it's costly.
Furthermore, he wanted the city-building task to enhance people's sense of belonging.
But now, with the benefits in front of him, screw it.
He would use all his power to become the most populous continent in the Etherium Realm.
However, thinking about it, he realized the land in the Curse Continent was not enough.
It couldn't even reach a percentage of the Arcane Continent, much less the ever-expanding Divine Continent.
If the population continued to grow without living space, it would ultimately be all for naught.
Digging the land under the sea is inefficient and slow; by the time they dig enough, the population would be overflowed.
Furthermore, the land under the sea is too low-grade; he would have to spend a lot if he wanted to nourish it.
Buying land directly is also too costly.
Although he is stupidly rich, it's not enough for him to waste it just for some land.
Suddenly, he thought of the most abundant material in his storage dimension.
The Atomic God Metal, the hardest tier 9 metal in the Etherium Realm.
The Earth of Life, a tier 9 soil that could accommodate and give birth to all things.
The Water of Life, a tier 9 water that could heal and nourish all life.
These three treasures were the ever-expanding treasure he got from the Etherium Vault.
Reaching millions and billions of light-years, it was more than enough to accommodate the expansion of the Cursed Continent.
Furthermore, as treasure generated by his mana, he controlled it like the back of his hand.
As for the structure of land?
Like the scattered continent-domains of the Arcane Continent, the expanding land of the Divine Continent, or the moving continents of the Beast Continent.
It was too early to think about.
Maximus planned to first repopulate the Moonlight Forest before thinking about it.
