Chapter 256: Break : (System Changes Part 1).
Back at the Orckish Forest, the Gordon's group remained at the edge.
Unable to fully proceed due to Alec's restricted mana, preventing him from summoning his other golems.
They collectively decided to continue camping in their at the edge of the Forest until the remaining 24 hours had passed.
It seemed like the logical choice, as Alec would be able to recover his Mana by then and it would provided them with additional protection if they were to face another attack similar to what had occurred at the forest entrance.
With the exception of Legion, all the other Captain-ranked Golems Alec had the ability to summon minion golems using their mana during battles.
Although they also had to moved a significant distance from their previous spot, as they were apprehensive that Kethra, who now had some understanding of their abilities, might return to confront them again with another group of mages.
After all, they had inflicted a significant loss upon him, and revenge was likely on his mind.
It would be foolish to camp in the same spot where the previous fight had emerged.
While they didn't necessarily fear Kethra, they were aware that it was pointless to face him again if Alec was not at full strength.
They knew how ruthless Kethra could be in combat.
Hence, Alec volunteered for night watch duties, despite the disagreement among the group.
He assured them that they need not worry, as both Legion and Titan would be by his side.
They had no choice but to accept Alec's decision, James offered to scout every hour to ensure the area remained clear, although he confidently stated that encountering any problems was unlikely.
As The outer regions of the Second Dimension was predominantly occupied with invading the Earth realm, as it was the fastest way to enhance their cultivation and amass resources for their world.
Each human they killed during the blood moon battle provided them with significant benefits, equivalent to ten hours of cultivation depending on the cultivation level of the dead human.
Moreover, the resources near every space gate were expected to flourish, thanks to the absorption of human life Qi by the space gates.
Additionally, the energy absorbed was utilized to accelerate cultivation resources in the Abyss world.
After James explained to Alec, he was shocked.
He remembered hearing from the Fifth Elder Of The Gordons Clan about something that the creatures of the second dimension believed was hidden in the Earth realm.
This belief compelled them to attack relentlessly, as they sought to steal it for their own world.
However, Alec had begin to think that even if this item that triggered their attacks no longer existed, they would still be reluctant to halt their invasion of the Earth realm on every blood moon day.
This was because not only did they become stronger through battle, but they also amassed enough resources to aid their growth, with there lust for battle and an easy way out it was clear what they would choose.
Now Alec understood why the goblin army was always able to quickly cultivate new Tier 1 warriors at the Estonia city second dimension space gate.
It was common knowledge that they received a great amount of resources during every blood moon, especially through the killing of mages.
This surplus of resources ensured that even extortion from the main goblin leaders wouldn't hinder their relentless army development and deployments.
Initially, James intended to exhibit his determination by staying with Alec to guard during the night.
However, when various auras began to shimmer and he noticed signs of a breakthrough, he couldn't help but be surprised.
However, there was someone even more perplexed than him, and that was Alec.

There were so many things that Alec wanted to ask the system spirit at that moment.
However, ever since he had placed his spirit inside the Golem, he could only communicate with the system spirit when he summoned the golem.
It made him uneasy to summon the system spirit with James by his side, especially since it was related to one of his most important secrets, the 'System.'
Fortunately, luck seemed to be on his side as James was about to walk away soon.
James followed the direction of the breakthrough and was shocked to discover that it was happening in the tents of the Gordons group.
He wouldn't have been too surprised if one or two members had made a breakthrough, but for each and every one of them to do so at almost the same time only reinforced his suspicion that this group of mages was no ordinary group.
They should be a group that they could befriend, or at the very least, not be enemies with.
"If I'm not mistaken, they are all your family members, right?" James asked, surprising Alec with his sudden question.
Alec looked at James's serious expression and felt the need to answer, despite not fully understanding why James, who had been confident and arrogant at the beginning, was now acting so friendly towards him and his group.
Alec nonchalantly replied, "Yes, I think I mentioned before that we are family."
James shook his head in response.
"I don't recall you telling me anything like that, Actually, I remember suggesting that you must be family, considering how much trust you all have in each other in the wilderness, right after you established yourselves, I can't quite remember your initial response, but now I'm certain that you all share a certain element together , have similar earth element skills, and seem to share the same bloodline."
" Even if your fighting styles and techniques are different, I would be foolish not to want to confirm it properly."
As James finished explaining, Alec couldn't help but smile slightly. "Well, you don't have to worry, Let me tell you now for the last time, they are my clan members and we are family, Nothing is going to change that."
