CHAPTER 2064 POSSIBLE APPLICATIONS
For a long time now, he had been swarmed with non-Martial Art-related problems. Probably ever since he got involved with the Kandrian Throne War. An entire mountain had been put on his shoulders, weighing him down.
Now, he was so close.
So close to getting rid of all of it.
The Kandrian Throne War would be truly put to an absolute end.
He could finally live without the shackles of things like his royal bloodship and princehood weighing him down.
Truth be told, he desperately needed to cut himself off from the because he had more important matters to deal with, such as his identity crisis and his path forward to fulfilling Project Water, the most important force in his life.
He didn't have time to dedicate to managing the matters of the super-assets. The moment his father woke up, he would toss all these burdens on his shoulder and walk away without any regret.
That was the best way to go about it, indeed.
"Hehe, this is my revenge," Rui smirked mischievously.
His father had changed his life by tossing the burden of his princehood on him, not to mention the entire empire. He even admitted that he was doing it for Kandria rather than for Rui.
Now, Rui would bring him back to health and toss all of those burdens back at him, and some extra burdens as a form of interest.
He couldn't wait to see the expression on his father's face, in fact.
The latter would be torn between gratitude and exasperation.
"Sons don't normally talk about their fathers this way." Master Ceeran pointed out, amused.
"Hah." Rui snorted. "He deserves it after putting me through so much trouble. You cannot even begin to imagine the things I've had to go through to bring back the damned doctor."
"A story that you promised to tell me," Master Ceeran reminded him. "True…" Rui glanced at him. "…I have some plans regarding that. It will be better to share it with everyone rather than person by person. I will need to call for a meeting with the Master Council."
Rui had many things that he needed to tell them. This is from .
The first was the matter of ownership over the alien flora lifeform. He planned to share its ownership with the Martial Union and his father. To compensate the former for his fraud and to win back their approval and goodwill and the latter to compensate him for the loss of the topaz of Time.
The only reason he even sought to maintain partial ownership was because he would be able to use it without any problem should he ever needed.
He had some rather powerful visions of what to do with the alien flora lifeform if they could successfully harness it.
It was possible that they could potentially build an entire Martial Academy inside the dungeon that allowed them to mass produce Martial Apprentices like a factory. They could potentially create many Squire-level and Senior-level training facilities that allowed Martial Artists to train and accomplish in a tiny fraction of the time in real-time than it would normally take, massively accelerating their progress.
It would drastically empower the Martial Art foundation of the Kandrian Empire.
Of course, there were many considerations regarding the risks and dangers of such an approach.
The more they used it, the higher the probability that its existence would become known to the rest of Kandria.
That was the reason that he was quite cautious of going all out with it.
The other three powerhouses and frankly the rest of Panama would not allow Kandria to use such a priceless treasure to massively accelerate their development.
Of course, this wasn't absolutely insurmountable, but still, extremely dangerous and perilous. The might of dozens of Martial Sages and many hundreds of Martial Masters was not something that the Kandrian Empire wanted or needed to face.
However, if they chose a more lowkey approach then they would be forgoing many benefits of the alien flora lifeform.
It could create a hundred-kilometer-wide area with accelerated time. What was the point of using such an enormous area for only a limited number of individuals?
Rui had to admit, he wasn't entirely sure what was the most optimal application of this asset.
It was why he was more willing to let his father take care of this matter. The Emperor of Harmony understood geopolitics far, far better than Rui ever would, being extremely talented and gifted even when he was being groomed for the throne and having three centuries of experience with geopolitics.
Though, another important variable to consider was whether or not the plant could even be harnessed effectively.
Rui didn't understand anything about the alien flora lifeform. Being outside of the Tree of Life of Gaia, there were absolutely no insights that he was able to offer.
The Divine Doctor was different, however.
He had managed to keep the alien lifeform alive alive and well even in a spatially compressed orb. In the short time that Rui had been unconscious after his battle with the chimera, the man had managed to gain many insights, enough to treat the creature and ensure it was healthy and alive.
It was an extremely impressive feat that Rui hadn't missed. Not at all.
If anybody knew how to use the alien lifeform in some sort of dungeon bio-machine, it was him. Thankfully, Rui had already forged an agreement with the man where he would have access to the alien lifeform.
He could have the Divine Doctor also simultaneously lead a development project to create a powerful dungeon out of the creature that could be used. Then, and only then, was it possible to plan around it.
It was possible that it wouldn't be possible to control the creature from acting in a hostile manner against all its inhabitants. Or perhaps it was possible but would require weakening the creature in a manner that would also weaken the manifold created by the creature.
"Tsk, I need more information…when is that doctor returning?"
