Many had made plans to leave the bustling city and head off to the remote mountains, especially the famous ones.
Some netizens had guessed that the places where the first tide of spiritual energy had appeared wouldn’t be receiving the second tide this time, just like how rare flowers only bloomed once in a lifetime. Some so-called researchers even suggested that the second tide would appear at the famous mountains that had never had an eruption before.
When such news got out, the property prices on these mountains soared, with developers taking the opportunity to increase the prices overnight by ten times.
Even the American government couldn’t control such profiteering. After all, there were people who were willing to pay these prices… It didn’t matter anymore if the buyer even received the property ownership certificate. All they cared about was that they were there when the tide happened.
During the first tide, countless people experienced its magical effects. The sick recovered, the healthy became stronger, and the superpowers of many were awakened. The sky-high property prices were nothing compared to these great benefits.
Nevertheless, those who were able to afford these houses were the rich. The poor could only weather the elements and camp out in a tent. Hearing such rumors online and seeing the people going crazy, Alex didn’t know if favonovel.com should laugh or pity them.
“I’m not sure if the second tide of spiritual energy would appear, but I wonder where those two intruders heard the news. I’m sure that if there’s a second tide, it won’t erupt at those famous mountains that weren’t included in the first.”
Michelle was surprised. “Alex, do you know the reason behind it?”
Alex nodded. “I know a bit about that! The recovery in the Wastelands wasn’t a natural phenomenon. It’s a plan from three thousand years ago, coined during the end of ancient times by Grand Emperor Rowan and several other experts.”
“All the mountains included in the eruption had a great legacy during the ancient times. There are spiritual meridians underneath them. The ancient experts drafted out the scheme and used these lands to steal heavenly tribulation from the universe, so there would be a recovery of spiritual energy in these lands after three thousand years.”
“With this, our people would become powerful enough to defend our land against the Undead clan.”
As favonovel.com spoke, Alex suddenly remembered that the Undead Queen and True Martial Sovereign had both mentioned a seed before.
It was the backup plan Grand Emperor Rowan and the other experts had left back then, and True Martial Sovereign had confirmed that such a man had indeed existed. Since this was considered a top-secret, no one would speak of it easily. Alex had even been chosen as its substitute to draw the attacks of their enemies.
He felt mad at the mention of the topic. More importantly, now that the spiritual energy of America had recovered, the man could be hiding right here in the country, absorbing the grand opportunity and improving himself, waiting to strike.
“Damn it, who could that guy be?”
From the American experts Alex knew, no one had the potential. It would seem that this man could hide his identity well.
Michelle said, “So if there’s a second tide, it would still erupt at the places where the first tide did?”
“That’s right.”
“Then what are we waiting for? Let’s pack our bags and head to Yukon! That’s the greatest sanctuary of the spiritual energy eruption, and it belongs to us Rockefeller’s. There are too many people here at Mount Dragon-Tiger. Even if some treasure does appear, it wouldn’t belong to us!”
Alex nodded, “You’re right… But I have to correct you. You’re one of the Yowell’s, not a Rockefeller.”
“Ahem… You’ve already done that to me. Don’t you need to be responsible?”
“Did what?”
“You… I mean that… Argh. I don’t care. You have to be responsible for me!”
While they spoke, something new happened on Mount Dragon-Tiger.
A member of the Flying Eagles came and said that someone from Snow Dragon Valley had arrived, and there were quite a few of them. According to him, they looked fierce and seemed to be looking for trouble.
Alex immediately went over to look.
As expected, there were thirty people there. All of them were flowing white robes and were stunningly beautiful ladies. The one leading them was obviously Alba.
He frowned. “What are you here for?”
Alba smiled coolly, “Ah, Mr. Rockefeller. We‘re here to capture our sect’s criminal. Do let us in.”
“Criminal? Who?”
“The ex-master of the Snow Dragon Valley sect, Lenneberg!”
