Floating Island - Triple S Talent

Chapter 114: The Battle is Over

The battle on the Indonesian Alliance island lasted for several hours. Everything unfolded quickly and smoothly thanks to the combined efforts of all humanity.

The battle continued until late afternoon, at which point several messages from the top alliance announced that the Blood Race had been completely exterminated.

(Chat between Blue Planet's human race)

-(Lein) Announcement to all human rulers: the Blood Race has been eradicated from the Divine Sky Realm. Thank you all for your assistance. Please exchange your blood crystals to receive discounted rewards.

- (Bai Qi) To anyone who betrays humanity by becoming part of the Blood Race, I, Bai Qi, will be the first to kill that person.

- (William Anderson) Congratulations to us, humanity.

-(Riko) Amazing! That terrifying Blood Race was dealt with in just a few hours.

- (Hun Mo) Congratulations to all of humanity.

- (Iko) By the way, who caused the Blood Race to appear on the Indonesian Alliance island? I heard it was because the President of Indonesia betrayed us.

- (Aldi) As a member of the Indonesian alliance, I apologize to everyone.

...

The chat between all of humanity became lively, discussing the destruction of the Blood Race. Many rulers sent messages congratulating one another. Of course, who wouldn't be happy about driving out another race from their homeland?

At this moment, Lein and the others regrouped at a still-intact location.

In one area of the portal hub, Lein stood casually, observing his surroundings. "Incredible, humanity's progress is so fast," he murmured.

Lein, being one of the highest-ranking individuals in the Divine Sky Realm—or rather, one of the strongest and wealthiest—felt proud of how rapidly humanity had advanced. He had done what he could by opening branches of the Alliance World Market and selling items at affordable prices.

Initially, this approach didn't show results, but now the results were slowly becoming evident. Every time he saw other rulers passing by, most of them were level 10. Some had even reached level 15, and occasionally, a level 20 ruler from the top alliances would pass by.

Not only were they advancing in level, but Lein also noticed that the rulers entering and exiting the portal had high-quality equipment. Green-tier swords were the standard for going to battle, and blue equipment was held by rulers with some strength.

Green equipment was, of course, usually reserved for the leaders of the top alliances, but even so, it wasn't unusual to see random human rulers with one or two purple pieces of equipment on their bodies.

"What's the matter? Do you regret it?" Lein said mockingly to the middle-aged man sitting on the ground below him. The man appeared physically weak, with a depressed look on his face.

"I'm guilty, sir... I was wrong," the man said, crying sorrowfully.

Yes, this man was Wiko Suryo, the mastermind and instigator of everything. He was the one who allowed the Blood Race to infiltrate the Indonesian Alliance. Driven by greed, he was willing to betray his race in exchange for a pure artifact-level item.

In previous conversations, Wiko Suryo had confessed everything he had done to join the Blood Race.

A few days ago, at the start of the inter-racial war event and the emergence of portals to other realms, all human rulers gained access to the outside world. This became the main route for the Blood Race to enter the Divine Sky Realm.

Initially, Wiko Suryo was like other rulers, looking to earn contribution points to purchase high-level items. The primary goal of all rulers was the silver badge to break through the level 20 barrier.

Unfortunately, during his adventure in another realm, Wiko Suryo encountered a leader of the Blood Race. The Blood Race leader's motive was to recruit rulers from newly-formed realms like the Divine Sky Realm to spread the Blood Race lineage among the rulers there. As a reward, they would receive a pure artifact if they managed to convert over 50% of the rulers in that realm.

Wiko Suryo, driven by greed and self-interest, was tempted by the sweet words of the Blood Race leader. The leader also revealed some crucial truths to Wiko Suryo regarding the next steps after the inter-racial war event and the emperor selection system in newly-formed realms.

The Blood Race leader also promised Wiko Suryo that he would be made an emperor in the Divine Sky Realm if he successfully completed his mission.

Sadly, Wiko Suryo targeted the wrong group from the start. Although he knew that the World Market Trade Alliance island was strong, he never imagined he would be killed in mere seconds. The World Market Trade Alliance rarely showed its true power, so many human rulers were unaware of just how strong the tower on that island really was.

Lein conducted a thorough examination of Wiko Suryo but found nothing special except for his spatial ring.

"Sorry, I'm late, brother."

From afar, Lein heard a familiar voice. Yes, it was Nita, who was now walking towards him.

Beside Nita were a few others: Laras, Hana, Gusti, and another woman with short hair, wearing a long white robe.

"Yeah, you took your time," Lein replied casually.

"Hello, Mrs. Wati, we meet again," Lein greeted the woman in the long white robe.

This woman was the one who had brought out the purification potion during the high-level meeting of the Indonesian alliance, the meeting led by Mr. Arok, which resulted in the conflict between General Bowo and the small man, Mamun.

On reflection, it made sense. During the meeting, Mrs. Wati had distributed many high-grade purification potions. Without the help of Nita, who had long been strategizing with Mrs. Wati, it would have been impossible for her to purchase such expensive purification potions.

"Yes, we meet again, Mr. Lein," Mrs. Wati replied with a warm smile. Initially, she didn't believe it when Nita contacted her about the plan to use the purification potion to detect the Blood Race. But after being promised several benefits and protection, Mrs. Wati eventually agreed, leading to the events at the high-level meeting of the Indonesian alliance.

"Mr. Lein, let me take this man away," Gusti, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke up. He was disgusted by Wiko Suryo, who was acting like a dead dog on the ground.

"Go ahead... just don't kill him for now," Lein replied without objection.

Gusti grinned widely at Lein's response. He immediately pulled out a long stick from his storage space. He tied Wiko Suryo's hands to one end of the stick and then bound his feet tightly.

"Sister Hana, give me a hand... let's go," Gusti said to Laras, who had been listening to the discussion between Lein and Laras.

Hana lifted the other end of the stick while Gusti held the front. They now looked like two adults carrying Wiko Suryo as if he were a roasted pig.

"Well, if there's nothing else to discuss, let's head back to the island," Lein said energetically to everyone.

Lein and the others quickly approached one of the portals and patiently entered it one by one. Mrs. Wati, of course, joined them, as she would receive many treatments and facilities promised by Nita earlier.

After returning home, Lein and Nita went back to the town hall to tidy up and rest after a day of battle. Laras also returned to her home in the City of Light, and finally, Hana, Gusti, and the tied-up Wiko Suryo also moved away.

The next day, World Market Trade Alliance island.

Today was the 26th day of the Inter-Racial War event. As usual, Lein and Nita were having breakfast after their daily exercise routine in the main square in front of the town hall.

At the dining table, Nita, who had been enjoying her meal, suddenly asked, "Brother, how did it go?"

Nita ate while paying attention to Lein's response. She seemed to have a question deep within her heart.

"Well... the usual stuff, Wiko Suryo's greed nearly led to the destruction of Indonesia and even all the rulers in the Divine Sky Realm," Lein replied while eating his food.

Lein then explained to Nita everything Wiko Suryo had told him earlier, from his initial encounter with the Blood Race leader to the process of selecting an emperor in newly-formed realms, and the information about the next event after the inter-racial war.

"Disgusting... someone like that makes me sick," Nita said with a tone of disgust. She couldn't understand Wiko Suryo's mindset in making such decisions. How could a president think only of himself and not care about his own people?

"Then what about the Indonesian island, brother? What should we do?" Nita asked curiously. So far, every city that has been built is led by one of the core members. Currently, there are only 10 core members on Lein's island, so the Indonesian island will be left without a leader.

"Well... let it remain empty for now. We'll fill the position if the right person comes along," Lein replied while continuing to chew his food.

"Besides, if there really isn't anyone suitable, there's no need to worry. Just let it be our main land, our living city," Lein added.

Nita listened attentively to Lein's explanation. She would follow all the orders given by her brother regarding the development of the island.
