He Became A Monstrous Genius After Obtaining A Time Dilation Artifact-Chapter 651. Raising worth?

"We will have to go through the checkpoint array. Time we deactivated the one-time concealment rune of the spaceship," Legoland said.

Kailen was the one who was recognized as the owner of the spaceship by the AI of the spaceship.

"Deactivate concealment."

The moment he spoke, the AI of the spaceship responded.

[Concealment Deactivated and permanently nullified]

Their spaceship came into the view of surrounding spaceships. Naturally, the people heading into the imperial Galaxy were those who already stayed there. If one was not recognized as a resident of the imperial Galaxy, the checkpoint runic array surrounding each star system would notify the enforcers of the Galaxy, and the person would be dealt with.

Currently, Kailen and Legoland have arrived in one of the Star Systems.

"This is the Selin star system. This is the current region of the fifth imperial clan," Legoland’s eyes flashed with an inquisitive glint as he stared at Kailen. "Just as you requested, we will choose to stay here."

He had already told Kailen that the Selin Star System, where the fifth imperial clan stayed and presided over, was the farthest from the first imperial clan’s star system, where the royal palace was located, the first imperial clan stayed, and the headquarters of the Imperial Clan—consisting of powerful nobles selected from each of the five clans assisting the emperor to rule the empire—was located.

He was quite puzzled as to why Kailen had opted for them to stay here rather than at the first imperial clan’s star system, where in his opinion, whatever Kailen had planned could have been executed better. However, since he didn’t know what Kailen had planned and how he wanted to execute it, he simply agreed.

Because he trusted Kailen’s competence.

Kailen simply nodded to Legoland’s words. They went through the checkpoint array without any problems.

However, the imperial Galaxy’s intelligence system was not something to be scoffed at. The five imperial clans were immediately notified of Karag Anvilheart’s arrival.

What shocked them was that he had decided to reside in the fifth clan’s star system? Why? The fifth clan was lacking in resources compared to the first four clans. So what was he thinking?

Couldn’t he have decided to go straight to the first clan? Why did he make this decision? Had the fifth clan’s leadership wooed him with benefits the others could not provide? They doubted. The fifth clan lacked that level of capacity. They would definitely try to get him on their side with benefits. However, every commoner who managed to come to the imperial capital came here for the sake of cultivation, and connections.

Karag Anvilheart’s decision didn’t make any sense.

Each of the four clans still decided to send envoys to the Selin Star System. Karag Anvilheart was a million runesmiths in one person. Having him on their side meant more business, more money, more resources, which meant more power, to fight for the throne.

Yes, each of the five clans could topple over the others as long as they had the capacity to have an emperor appear from their lineage. It was all a matter of power. In the RiverBlood Empire’s Imperial Galaxy, power was not just combat abilities. All the five clans had monstrous darkness law combatants due to their strict marital regulations. However, what separated the clans from one another was wealth, which most of the time translated to the presence of secondary Carrier experts.

This was why they were all so obsessed with the secondary Carrier experts and had instituted the hall of fame system.

At the moment, in the residence of the fifth imperial clan.

Uvruth was having a conversation with someone when a butler barged into his residence.

"Lord, permit me for the intrusion. But we have Intel that Karag Anvilheart just appeared in the Selin Star system. He’s here sir. He decided to stay here."

The moment the Butler finished speaking, Uvruth’s eyes widened. It seemed fortune had decided to smile on him. Quickly, he turned into a streak of light and bolted through the windows.

"Send me the coordinates of his residence!"

He knew that according to imperial faction regulations, any secondary Carrier expert on the hall of fame list would be provided a residence of the highest caliber to reside in the moment they visited any of the star systems of the five imperial clans. He was certain that by now, Karag Anvilheart had gotten a place to stay.

The butler stared at his retreating back in the residence and replied, "Yes sir."

Riverblood Star System.

First Imperial Clan.

Royal Palace of the RiverBlood Empire.

Clan head’s residence and at the same time, residence of the Head of the Imperial Faction.

Malverion RiverBlood was seated in his living room. Across him was seated his second son, the brother of the current emperor.

"You need to personally visit Karag Anvilheart and convince him to come to our side. If he stays in the Fifth clan’s star system, it’s only a matter of time before they manage to convince him to join their side," Malverion said. "But if we move now, we may have a chance. Just because he’s staying there doesn’t mean he has accepted to join them. For now, he may be trying to increase his worth. If he decided to come here directly, he’d feel like he’s offering himself on a silver platter. By staying there and making us go to him, he will increase his worth."

His second son, Vaelic, replied, "Understood, father."

Quickly he disappeared.

Selin Star System.

In a planetary district.

Karag Anvilheart’s residence.

In a large bedroom.

"The universe energy density in the capital is worth the rumors," Kailen thought.

It was quite dense. Not at the level of a naturally forming secret realm, and definitely nowhere near that of the pocket world, but it was not bad. He activated elemental mirroring and started absorbing it passively as he took a sip of coffee. He had already told Legoland to inform any one who visited that he was in seclusion—as he had planned. An excuse to avoid meeting any of them.

Now that he had a better way to deal with his target, there was no need to resort to a tactic that would end up getting him embroidered in endless political battles between the imperial clans. He wanted to handle things quickly and get his slot into the academy.

He had been observing Malverion through the eyes of a shadow hound.

"This man really knows how to let his imagination run wild. I simply chose to stay in this star system because I want to stay away from those I’m about to scheme against as much as possible. What the hell is he talking about? It seems I should facilitate things before anyone starts getting any funny ideas," Kailen sighed.
