Chapter 61 - News From Around

While Tristan went to sleep, many changes were happening across the different worlds.

In the Battle Body World a civil war had broken out. A man had appeared with the true royal crown, immediately suppressing the royal bloodline and forming a huge revolutionary force. The man, Last Resort, was extremely powerful and his force was not ordinary either. The battle had shaken the core of the Battle Body World and chaos had ensued in its areas of influence, particularly on planets which bordered other influences, like the Ghosts and Demons, who tried to expand.

Currently the situation was in flux because there was no clear victor and the influence of the Battle Body World had suffered tremendously.

However, it wasn't the only one. In the human world's top echelons a terrifying news appeared. Not long ago, the carcass of a terrifyingly powerful and immovable beast, the Singularity Mammoth had been discovered within a fragment world. Apparently the world was somehow related to the Battle Body World.

The shocking news was that the Mammoth's carcass had disappeared. Instead of it, a tablet had appeared in the world fragment saying the following words.

"You may have bullied me when I was younger, but you may bully me no longer. When I return, I will take back what's rightfully mine! Loon!"

This Loon was apparently a wayward son of a noble martial arts family within the War conference who had been discarded by the family for not having talent. He had disappeared for some years, before he resurfaced in the offical auction, where he even managed to forge a secret deal with the White Star from the Vast Expanse. It was even rumored that the Mammoth was actually found by White Star himself.

White Star was also a mysterious figure who had appeared very recently. Some conspiracy theories began floating that White Star was actually Loon. The Vast Expanse did not comment on these rumors.

Then there were rumors circulating of a mysterious Palace arriving in different worlds, offering random individuals tea and also a chance to spin a wheel of treasure. It was said that many of the people who had that tea had then turned mad and killed themselves, while others became lifeless and comatose. A demon peak general, whose son was killed in such a manner, found the palace and battled with this mysterious person, however, he was killed.

In the Pirate World a huge turmoil had begun. The Pirate King Calico Jack had disappeared. His ship had been spotted a few times recently, but his location was missing. Rumors had spread that he had died, after trying to curse the Kraken and dying from a rebound. It had caused a great war in the Pirate World to find Calico Jack's hidden treasure as well as the chance to become a Pirate King.

The Demon World was also not at all calm. They had fought a terrifying war of bloodshed against the Angel World in order to retrieve the treasure. However, not only the treasure had been stolen, but it was stolen by a princess of the Demon God's bloodline. The Demon God heard of his descendant's treasonous acts and used some art to track her down. Instead he discovered that the princess Shamana had died over five years ago, right at the time she was suspected have drastically changed her personality.

Rumors abounded that other than the treasure that led to the war with the Angels, the Demon God had also given the princess Shamana a treasure of his own and now potentially both had been stolen. The Demon World was in a frenzied uproar over this matter.

The Angel World had been happy about the uproar in the Demon world, however, a debate had risen among the Angel World that had become a full blown factional war. A young and new talent from the Angels called Hope, had created a new practice of cultivating karma instead of cultivating faith. A new guild had formed that accepted all angels, dark or holy, and the guild's rise was phenomenal.

In the revolution of Lucifer, the God of Angels was said to have been terribly injured amd his presence had not been seen since. This led to the decadence of the cultivation with depended on their faith in the God. Thus the cultivation of Karma which had an extremely rapid cultivation was being favored by the younger Angels and a war of factions had broken out.

Meanwhile, back in the Human world, lot of trouble was brewing in Coastal City. Two incidents had caused a heavy rift and threatened to heavily weaken the status of the six guilds which controlled the human side.

The government had been accused of scheming to steal from an important family of the Mage Tower, the Mage Tower was accused of using the family to collude with demons, The War Conference was accused of prowling behind the scenes and attacking both and profiting as well as murdering a Government Admin.

At the same time, the Alchemy Cauldron was almost on the brink of collapse due to the collusion with the Cursed Blood Sect. Many of its alchemists had left for other guilds to form alchemy sub departments there.

The only guild that had become even stronger was the Vast Expanse, which had done some phenomenal work with information gathering and mercenary work. Even the Cursed Blood Sect had been exposed by them and in this scheme of things one name shone bright. White Star. His real strength was not well known, but his intelligence gathering was unrivalled.

He had created an information boom that shook the world. Once the hidden world was exposed on Earth, a virtual reality game came out where one could test battle against other warriors. People could log in and play PVP, but they also had a PvE element where they fought a special class of warriors called Totem Warriors who were incredibly difficult to beat.

The upper echelons had also received top quality research about human evolution and how to forge plates which could tremendously increase the combat power of humans.

While all these things were happening due to his involvement, Tristan was cluelessly sleeping.
