The World Conquest: Giving Birth To Become A God

Chapter 178 Etherium Vault

Chapter 178 Etherium Vault

Maximus Manor:

Maximus quickly returned home, missing his wives and children.

"H-Husband?"

"Dad!"

Upon seeing Maximus arrive, they finally reacted.

"Husband!"

"Dad!"

"You're finally home!"

"We thought something had happened to you, especially with that special Abyss monster."

His children chattered nonstop, telling him all they had seen.

His wives, however, looked at him with red eyes, truly worried.

"I'm sorry I made you worried," Maximus swiftly apologized.

"Husband, please don't do such a dangerous thing again."

"We are not short of money or resources."

"If there is danger, you should escape quickly," his wives nagged endlessly, filled with love.

"Don't worry; it won't happen again," he said as he gave his wives a hug and a kiss, one by one.

Looking at his children with excitement in their eyes, he greeted each one of them.

"How's Dad? Is he cool?"

"Dad, you're super awesome. You can absolutely beat anyone."

"If not for that special Abyss monster that grows stronger over time, we think it wouldn't stand a chance against you!"

"It's still Dad who is the most handsome, even that Skye is beaten!"

The boys, Max, Sam, and Lux, bragged using all their vocabulary.

"Hahaha, that's right."

"If I had fought the Abyss monster from the beginning, it wouldn't even be a match for me."

"Daddy, but you're the coolest when collecting resources," Lux said, with a twinkle in his eye.

For him, fighting power is not as important as money.

"Don't worry; I'll share a part of the resources with you later."

"Father, don't be fooled by him. He won a few trillion magic crystals betting on you!" Liam exposed.

His own brother was becoming more mischievous, even daring to cheat their father.

As the oldest brother, it's his responsibility to keep his younger siblings on the right path.

"Looks like someone is treating us this time," Maximus teased, seeing Lux's bulging cheeks.

Although Lux was the wealthiest, he was also the most frugal.

Besides indulging his sisters in whatever they wanted.

His brother had to persuade him for a long time to part with some money.

"Hehe, Lux, I know a nice restaurant," Max gave him an evil look.

"You can't be...," Lux said, looking at his brother with some despair.

It seemed that his wealth would be cut today.

Soon, under the instigation of their brother and sister, they celebrated at a fancy restaurant.

...

The next day, In the Moonlight Empire:

"I've met your majesty," Doran greeted.

"Doran, you are here!"

"I just acquired a bunch of resources from the Abyss."

"Abyss? When did your majesty venture into such a dangerous place?" Doran grew worried for a moment.

Maximus's body is a sacred embodiment of the empire that it could be argued that it's even more important than the empire itself.

Without Maximus, the Moonlight Empire is nothing.

"Don't worry; am I not safe now?" Maximus replied with a smile, seeing Doran's concerned expression.

"Your Majesty, you should try to avoid such places in the future," Doran advised solemnly.

"Alright, alright. I'm here to give you the resources, not for anything else," Maximus said, changing the topic when he noticed that Doran still wanted to nag.

"Follow me; this place is not large enough to store the resources."

Only a few Tier 9 storage rings could accommodate the resources he had collected from the Abyss.

Such an expensive item was not something he could acquire casually.

Soon, they reached a vast, undeveloped wasteland.

"Earth wall..." Maximus quickly condensed and constructed a temporary storage facility.

"It should be enough."

With a satisfied look, he placed all the resources he had obtained from the Abyss.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Every time Maximus set down the mountains of assorted resources, a minor earthquake occurred.

If Maximus hadn't reinforced the area, the ground might have already collapsed.

Doran stood in silence, his mouth agape.

"What is this?"

Thud!

Thud!

Each thud sent shockwaves through Doran's heart.

Although Doran didn't know the names of the resources Maximus had acquired.

He could still estimate their value just from the aura they emitted.

The lowest-tier resources present here were Tier 4.

Thud!

The final thud seemed to snap Doran out of his daze.

"Your Majesty, did you rob all of this?"

"How could I do such a thing?" Maximus smiled.

"How is it? I got this after working for over a month," Maximus said showing his hard work.

"Working for a month?" Doran's mouth twitched when he heard this.

"Working for just a month can yield this?"

"What if your majesty were to work for a few years?"

"Wouldn't the Moonlight Empire become the wealthiest empire on the curse continent?"

Doran's thought ran widely as he imagined all kinds of possibilities.

"What's the matter?" Maximus asked, seeing that Doran appeared lost in thought.

"Nothing, Your Majesty. I'm just too excited."

"Well, that's fine. You can manage these resources at your discretion," Maximus patted Doran and was about to leave.

"Oh, before I forget, here's the information about these resources."

"If you're unsure what to do, just call me," Maximus added before teleporting away.

He estimated that even if he sold these items, they wouldn't be worth even a quadrillion magic crystals.

What he truly earned in the Abyss Realm was the World Crystal Fragment.

Now, they were in his system space, continuously generating system points for him.

These resources really meant little to Maximus.

Seeing Maximus hastily depart, Doran could only sigh.

"This kind of burden is not really light..."

As he gazed at the mountain of resources, Doran made a promise to do his best.

"But with these, the Moonlight Empire can take a leap forward."

...

Two days later,

After some rest and quality time with his family.

Maximus returned to the Tower of Arcana for the gathering.

"Maximus, you're here!" Azurith warmly greeted.

"Maximus!"

"The most talented in our generation is finally here!"

"It's both a blessing and a curse to be in this generation!"

The core students grew lively as they saw Maximus.

The previous envy had disappeared.

Since that day, they had watched the live feed replay.

They realized why Maximus was considered the most talented in their generation.

It was true that he had won due to the abundance of resources he had looted, but his fighting skills were equally astonishing.

He battled and defeated Tier 7 and Tier 8 Abyss monsters effortlessly.

Captured several abyss sources.

Healed the injured Skye in a blink of an eye.

Although others in the top 10 could do the same, it wasn't as quick and straightforward as Maximus.

Now, they only wanted to be friends with this genius, hoping to broaden their options for the future.

After a few minutes, the dean, Fealan, finally appeared.

"Are you all here?"

Seeing that no one was missing, Fealan nodded.

Maximus and the others suddenly felt a jolt, and they found themselves in another location.

....

Hidden Space Fold, Etherium Vault:

"Traveling this way is really convenient," Maximus thought.

With a wave of his hand, you could take others with you anywhere in the Etherium Continent.

Although Maximus could also teleport, it only covered a few thousand kilometers.

Looking around, he noticed people from other continents arriving as well.

"Maximus, you're here!" Skye greeted upon seeing him.

"Oh, hello there," Maximus replied nonchalantly.

"I've already packed all my belongings."

"After collecting my rewards, I can return with you to the Arcane Continent," Skye excitedly stated.

With no ties binding him, Skye could go anywhere he wanted.

Furthermore, the Beast Continent had few restrictions as long as you were strong.

"Congratulations!"

"Hahaha, then I'll bother you later, so I can settle quickly."

"Sure."

As they conversed, the three Apex Sovereigns finally opened the Etherium Vault.

"Now that the Etherium is open, you can enter,"

"You have three days to choose carefully. After that, the door will be closed."

"Remember, you can only take the amount of treasure assigned to you."

"Otherwise, you'll be at your own risk," Fealan warned.

They all nodded in understanding.

With the World Origin as a guard.

Even a Tier 9 individual daring to rob this place could easily be eliminated.

Upon entering the place, they saw an immense and endless treasure house.

Most of the treasures inside were even larger than the Moonlight Empire.

There were also minuscule treasures invisible to the naked eye.

Fortunately, everything was displayed in an orderly manner, allowing them to appreciate each treasure individually.

Looking around, Maximus asked Tintin, "What is this?"

"Host, I have no information regarding the treasures in this place," Tintin shook her head.

"In this place, you can only rely on your own judgment."

"If you don't even know how to evaluate a treasure, then it's your bad luck," Azura, who was passing by, muttered.

"Then do you know how to identify the treasure here?"

"By feeling..."

"Feeling? That sounds unreliable," Maximus rolled his eyes.

He thought that this guy had some tricks, but just a hoax showing off.

"The treasures here have isolation, you can Identify them by other means."

"Anyway, just feel the treasure that resonates with you the most," Azura quickly left, embarrassed to say more.

"How reliable can 'feeling' be?" Maximus thought.

"System scan..."
