Could It Really Be This Fast?

Those who saw the news and planned to go learn more were not limited to Kyle, Renoli, the Precognitor, and Lacey.

The others intended to let someone else test the waters first and were still watching from the sidelines.

If God of the Void Kassadin truly intended to establish a faction and grant those who joined a chance to grow stronger, they would head over immediately.

At the same time, the news released by Harvey did not only spread through the bounty hunter community. As long as people on Xandar browsed the internet or had access to many information channels, they could learn of it as well.

"Lord Kassadin has established the Void Cult and announced its location."

"It isn’t far from us. Should we go pay him a visit?"

"It isn’t noon yet. Let’s go after work."

"Alright, it’s settled."

Dam and several of his brothers also learned of the news. After exchanging a few words, they quickly settled on a plan.

Over the past month, they had truly experienced the greatness of the Void.

With their steadily growing strength, they had become devoted workers. Whenever they had time off, they found manual labor to do. Working hard at construction had earned them more money.

Originally, they had wanted to quit their guard jobs and focus entirely on construction work, since the pay was five times what they earned now.

However, Dam said that keeping their current identities would make it easier to apply for the Nova Corps assessment later.

As long as they passed the assessment, joined the Nova Corps, and obtained Nova Armor,

even the initial one-star Nova Armor, combined with their increasingly powerful strength from evolution, would surely allow their power to soar.

With that leap in strength, they would be able to earn real money.

Dam’s plan made perfect sense to the other three, so they abandoned the idea of resigning.

However, there was no disagreement at all about going to pay Lord Kassadin a visit now.

As time passed, the message released in Kassadin’s name spread through the universe at incredible speed, reaching more and more people.


On Void Island.

Sonia directly ordered a batch of different basic gravity facilities from Wengersaz Company online.

She did not know which kind Mr. Kassadin wanted, nor did she know what he wanted such an impractical thing for.

But since Mr. Kassadin had told her to buy them, she naturally bought everything available.

After making the purchases, Sonia began searching online for all kinds of combat tutorials.

Her strength had improved significantly, but she did not know how to fully bring it out, so she had to make time to learn as quickly as possible.

Once the chefs arrived, Sonia would also need to arrange for them to move into the house and kitchen specially prepared for them.

Although she did not have much time, Sonia had no intention of wasting it. She focused intently on various fighting techniques, replaying them in her mind again and again to deepen her impression of the movements.

Sonia had originally thought she would have at least three hours of free time, because according to the plan, the chefs would arrive on the noon flight.

Yet less than an hour later, Sonia received an AI notification that someone had landed on the island.

This made Sonia, who was training by repeatedly punching a huge wooden log, freeze for a moment.

"Could it really be this fast?"

Then, as if realizing something, Sonia muttered in disbelief.

At the same time, Sonia opened her communicator. A projection appeared, showing four people at the island’s harbor—three men and one woman.

"…"

After seeing that the four had landed at the harbor without making any strange moves, instead appearing rather cautious, Sonia looked at herself. She was drenched in sweat, so she decided to take a shower first before going to see Mr. Kassadin and ask for his opinion.

They might have heard about the Void Cult from somewhere and come to learn more about it.

She could be a little casual in front of Mr. Kassadin, because he did not care about such things.

But before the future members of the Void Cult, she had to pay a little more attention to her behavior and appearance.

Thus, Sonia quickly returned to the villa and rushed into the bathroom in her bedroom.

Only ten minutes later, Sonia had changed clothes. She wore a white top and shorts, looking bright, pure, and charming. She easily inspired goodwill at first glance and did not seem dangerous at all.

"Mr. Kassadin, outsiders landed on the island eleven minutes ago."

"They are not the chefs who were originally scheduled to arrive."

Sonia came to within five meters of Harvey and spoke respectfully.

"I know. They are currently following the road."

"Go wait for them at the temple."

"Just let them look at the Stone Tablet. If they are willing to believe after understanding it, let them stay. If not, let them leave."

Harvey saw that Sonia had changed clothes. After hearing her report, he did not question why she had only informed him now and simply replied.

"Yes."

Sonia nodded at the instructions and left.

Harvey knew that three of the people who had come were superpowered individuals, while the other was Lacey, whom he had met a few times before.

The news had only just been spread, yet it had already drawn them here. The results were quite good.

However, whether they could seize this opportunity depended on whether they chose to believe after speaking with Sonia.

If they did not believe and left without seizing the opportunity, Harvey would not find it regrettable.

After all, once the Void Temple was established and the news spread, many people would come.

He was willing to give people opportunities, but whether they could seize them was another matter.

If they displayed an arrogant attitude toward Sonia, who had joined the Void yet was still weak, then their character clearly would not pass muster.

Once such people gained greater power, they would completely unleash the pride in their nature.

Harvey drank an iced beverage as he observed these first visitors.

Meanwhile, Sonia swiftly and nimbly moved through the trees. Before long, she arrived at the steps of the Void Temple and stood quietly, waiting for the first visitors.

Even if Mr. Kassadin was not at the temple, Sonia believed that he was surely observing every action of the visitors from the villa.

And based on Mr. Kassadin’s words, Sonia knew that he was merely giving the visitors an opportunity.

Whether they could seize it depended entirely on whether their words, actions, and thoughts could move Mr. Kassadin.

Only then would Mr. Kassadin bestow his blessing and allow them to join the great Void.

Sonia also understood her own position very clearly. Because of her abilities, she could currently be considered no more than Mr. Kassadin’s housekeeper, not yet his agent, but she would work toward becoming one.
