Reborn with Infinity Money System, I was Worshipped by All Universes! - Chapter 91

Chapter 91: Chapter91-Where the Army Passes, Not Even Grass Remains
Soon, the third day passed. Velen used all 1,000 special item enhancement runes generated by the system to strengthen his magic carpet, greatly enhancing its speed and defense to an unprecedented level!

On the fourth day, Velen directly merged the 100 crystal ore veins refreshed by the system into a barren planet they passed by.

These crystal ore veins were extremely special. Given enough time, they could continuously produce mana stones and gradually alter the surrounding environment.

For any major power in the universe, such resources were an invaluable foundation.

Ethan watched Velen’s actions with a bleeding heart.

Crystal ore veins could absorb mana on their own and were essentially mana sources. Even the most powerful factions in many star systems did not have crystal ore veins as their foundation.

Yet now, Velen was squandering them in this manner.

After Ethan’s desperate pleading, Velen finally agreed to leave him one.

By the fifth day, Ethan was on the verge of a complete breakdown.

Because he witnessed Velen scattering a thousand A-rank or higher skill books onto a primitive tribal planet, causing the inhabitants to revere him as a god!

“Velen is too extravagant! It has only been five days, yet the resources he has squandered… If measured in mana stones, even the top forces of ten star systems combined couldn’t afford it!”

“What kind of unfathomable background does he have?”

Ethan increasingly felt that Velen was beyond comprehension.

At the same time, he was beginning to understand why the five senators of the Ducal Manor had been so supportive of Velen’s previous extravagant actions.

The truth was simply that Velen was too rich.

So rich that treasures rare even in the vast universe were as common as cabbages in his hands!

“Sigh, we should be arriving at the Triad Sanctum tomorrow. I wonder what other treasures he’ll squander…”

Mentally shattered by Velen’s constant displays of wealth, Ethan glanced at the peacefully sleeping Velen with a look of curiosity.

He finally understood—Velen, this supreme account, simply couldn’t go a day without wasting something. It was as if his body would itch if he didn’t.

Inside the Triad Sanctum.

“Sophia Saintess, the time is almost up. We should start figuring out how to take that special treasure away. Otherwise, the calamity that will soon destroy the Triad Sanctum might drag us down with it.”

Kelsey anxiously approached Sophia.

Ever since Sophia had arrived at the Triad Sanctum, she hadn’t been in a hurry to seek out the special treasure. Instead, she had been leisurely vacationing and sightseeing as if she were on holiday.

Kelsey couldn’t make sense of it, and his worry only grew.

“I don’t care if I die here, but you are the hope of our Tarot Order. You absolutely cannot afford to be harmed!”

Seeing Kelsey’s grim expression, Sophia adjusted her sunglasses and replied indifferently:

“Councilor Kelsey, no need to be so anxious. When I activated the Blood Tarot Cards, I actually received two revelations. There’s still one more!”

Hearing her serious tone, Kelsey suppressed his impatience and asked,

“What’s the other revelation?”

“Timing! The best timing for us to take the treasure!” Sophia narrowed her eyes.

“If we try to claim the treasure before the Triad Sanctum’s destruction, we will almost certainly die. The Triad Sanctum will never hand over the treasure willingly—in fact, they might even try to kill us.”

“The optimal time is actually when the Triad Sanctum is on the brink of annihilation. That will be our best chance to take the treasure and bring it back!”

When Sophia first received this revelation, she had been equally shocked.

After all, it defied logic!

The Triad Sanctum’s impending doom was undoubtedly a terrifying event.

They were a formidable force with powerful means, and when faced with existential crisis, they would likely become desperate and slaughter everyone indiscriminately.

From what she knew of the Triad Sanctum, this was entirely possible.

Moreover, the force capable of annihilating the Triad Sanctum must be extraordinarily powerful. Once the Triad Sanctum was destroyed, the Tarot Order’s treasure would inevitably fall into their hands, making it nearly impossible to reclaim.

No matter how one looked at it, staying here was incredibly dangerous and unrealistic.

Yet, the Blood Tarot Cards had made it clear—staying was their best chance.

She didn’t fully understand why, but she trusted the guidance of the Blood Tarot Cards.

So, she simply relaxed and waited comfortably.

…

As the sixth day arrived, Ethan, pushing the magic carpet forward at an accelerated pace, froze when he saw the storage pouch Velen handed him.

“One hundred thousand 1st-level spellbeast mana crystals? And you want me to throw them away?”

Although 1st-level spellbeast mana crystals were worth only a few hundred mana stones each, a total of 100,000 meant a fortune of several million mana stones!

For the vast majority of awakeners, this was an astronomical sum.

However, upon further reflection, compared to the resources Velen had squandered before, these 100,000 mana crystals seemed insignificant.

Thus, Ethan swallowed his reluctance and began tossing the 1st-level mana crystals along the way.

By midday, he had finally finished scattering all of them.

Since Velen had wasted so many previous resources, these mana crystals—worth millions—now seemed to Ethan like an example of extreme frugality.

“Velen, the very center of the valley ahead is the headquarters of the Triad Sanctum!”

Suddenly, Ethan stepped in front of Velen, his expression grave.

The Triad Sanctum had many powerful awakeners, and, more importantly, they were ruthless.

Even top factions held a degree of apprehension toward them.

Now, with just the two of them approaching, they needed to be extremely cautious.

After all, they were here to annihilate the Triad Sanctum.

Ethan didn’t know what kind of trump card Velen had, but after witnessing his extravagant waste along the way, he understood one thing—

The Triad Sanctum had provoked the wrong person!

No matter what ruthless methods or hidden cards they possessed, there was no escaping their destruction at Velen’s hands!

“So, we’ve finally arrived.”

Velen stood up from the magic carpet, stretched his body, and then took out a gleaming suit of armor from his storage pouch, putting it on.

The dazzling golden armor radiated a powerful aura, making him look like a battle-hardened general.

However, behind him, Ethan rubbed his forehead in exasperation.

This was the armor Velen had forced him to forge from Starry Stone during their journey.

Originally, Ethan could have crafted something imposing and majestic.

But for some inexplicable reason, Velen insisted it be golden and shimmering—turning what was meant to be a mighty suit of armor into something that reeked of nouveau riche vulgarity.

It was the ultimate insult to Ethan’s craftsmanship!

The only silver lining was that this armor had consumed so much Starry Stone that the previously planned Starry Stone toilet had to be postponed.

“Senator Ethan, didn’t you ask me before why I wanted golden armor? Now, I’ll give you the answer!”

With that, Velen raised his golden longsword high and shouted,

“Come forth, Tycoon Guardian!”

At that moment, the surrounding space fell into an eerie silence.

Then, thunderclouds began to churn violently across the sky.

Bolts of lightning, thick as bowls, flickered and crackled, tearing through the heavens.

Standing beneath the surging lightning, Ethan felt his legs go weak.

He nearly collapsed to the ground.

Though he didn’t know exactly what was happening, the terrifying aura in the sky was suffocating him!

This thunder was far more powerful than anything he had ever faced!

From within its raging depths, he could even sense the wrath of the heavens.

What in the world had Velen done to enrage the heavens so?

Just as his thoughts were in turmoil, a massive black rift, tens of thousands of meters long, suddenly split open in the void before Velen.

One after another, towering, formidable figures emerged in perfect formation from the fissure.

Each was clad in golden armor that gleamed brilliantly, exuding an indescribable aura of dominance!

The aura of every single figure was unimaginably powerful—so much so that Ethan could barely breathe.

As these terrifying warriors appeared, the thunderclouds above churned even more violently, crackling with divine wrath.

Yet, despite the fury of the heavens, the guardians remained indifferent.

Instead, they exuded an overwhelming killing intent—ready to clash head-on with the heavens themselves!
