Chapter 1694 6 Months Passed
"What are you doing?!" Just as the two arrived back at the hotel, she followed him to his room, and sat on his lap when he sat down. He looked at her in a weird way, to get answered with a warm kiss, one that melted his defences and couldn't control himself with her.
The two made love simply like that, and stayed for hours shifting from the big bed to the tables and even on the bare floor. Hye already tasted the delicacies of different races, but this time he felt like he had never slept with a girl before.
The nymph race was famous for being too sexy and hot, so great in bed. After hours, the lady nymph slept in his embrace, naked without a single shred of clothes, while he was looking at her body, recalling the great moments he just experienced.
Hye was feeling great. Everything ended up the way he desired. He got the girl, enjoyed his night, and that came just after acquiring his crystals and spaceships.
"I need to start mass producing my trees," he knew the spaceships wouldn't fly on their own, and he needed a grand army to operate over them.
He didn't just want to make them fly, but also hijack and attack other spaceships, adding more to his small roster. It was going to be a hectic war, one that'd end up with many losses in both spaceships and warriors.
So as the nymph lady slept like a baby, even snoring loudly next to him, he started to plan all the crystals he got from Smiggy.
After paying more bones, he ended up having many trees, almost the same number as he had before. He knew the next harvest he'd gain billions of crystals, high grade ones. But after a few months, and repeated cycles of planting trees and nourishing the ones he harvested, he'd end up with thousands of billions of crystals in the end, even more!
That might be a grand number, an amount that would let him go crazy before if he heard about it. But now he knew that was barely enough.
"It's lucky they have a cap at level one," he muttered to himself once he finished planting trees, "now all I need to do is wait."
Hye acted low profile since then. He knew such a visit to Smiggy and that bar would get noticed by many eyes. Even if he ditched the ones following him using the portal, he was sure such a place must have been watched all the time.
Starting from that point, all he did was to stay in the hotel, enjoy his time with the lady nymph, while taking care of the harvest coming from the Crystal Heart.
The harvest kept getting richer every time. After three months, he started to take part of the harvest, give them to his warriors.
He changed his plan after learning about how the universal battles and wars happened. Depending entirely on Soulers wasn't going to help. He needed to use other types of warriors, ones who could perform better at these ships.
So he used his crystals to nourish a mixture of warriors, not just a few of them. And as his heart was going to yield more crystals, he wasn't worried about using these to nourish his warriors.
He used his free time to read more about spaceships. With the help of the lady nymph, he bought lots of beads that contained highly classified intel about these ships.
He didn't limit the knowledge only to himself, let his warriors study them as well. He spent the next three months educating his warriors while giving them crystals to grow stronger.
Hye was trying to do everything he could to prepare for the upcoming war. He tried to gather up intel from various sources, ending up failing every single time. His only source of intel came from Smiggy, who got addicted to his bones and asked for crazy prices every time.
The chat between the two would take days, filled with hustling and bustling about the prices of the intel. In the end, Hye would get little intel for a fair price of his bones. Yet he had to admit, even if he got little intel, this was very secretive news.
He learnt about the recent updates of the advancing Hescos armies. He was surprised to learn that many skirmishes had already taken place for months. The two sides seemed too eager for battle, even before the start of the big war.
Yet the more he learnt from Smiggy, the more he got the grand picture clearer to his mind. He knew that the two sides were fighting over the critically important points in the universe around this world. And so far, the Hescos were kicking their asses, winning most of the clashes.
Hye tried to see if Smiggy got his hands over any spaceships yet, but the latter kept a tight lips about the matter. Every time the matter of spaceships would be brought to light, Smiggy would complain about how Hye tricked him.
He already spoke with little Silvy, and learned that everything Hye said was a lie. He complained in rage, fumed with his desire to get back at Hye for the trick he felt for.
But the latter kept laughing every time this topic was brought up. Hye didn't defend himself except with a simple and direct logical answer: You are an outlaw, living in a world filled with trickery and treason. Don't take it on me for being smarter than you, ok?
Aside from this point, Smiggy always cooperated with Hye. The latter tried more than once to ask and see for how much this smuggler gained from his bones, but the latter always responded with a laughing emoji.
Six months passed, and Hye was now feeling more confident than ever about this war. He got tons of warriors who reached to the cap of power, got lots of valuable intel.
