Gacha Sovereign
chapter-743

Alex and the others finally moved toward the group, killing the minotaurs one by one until they finally finished within two hours. Alex fell on his butt and relaxed for a bit.

"The leader didn't seem that powerful since his intelligence was very low, and he didn't have any Divine Technique like the previous one. We were just unlucky to meet such an opponent first." Alex mumbled while looking at the sky.

"Indeed. Still, we have another thirty-one Spatial Gates before fighting the last boss." Firia nodded and sat beside him.

"I know. We should be able to wrap it up within three months as the latest." Alex nodded. "For now, recover your Spiritual Energy first before moving to the next one."

"I want to ask a question first." Firia hesitated for a second. "Can we close the Spatial Gates after killing every monster inside?"

"Hmm?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows and looked down, falling into deep thought. "That's a good idea. I will try it later."

"Sure. We can make sure that we don't leave a single monster or some monsters sneak inside that place." Firia nodded with a smile.

"Yeah. We need to be extra careful since we need to conquer all Spatial Gates before the last gate opens… Now that I think about it, it seems the catalyst to open the gates is the fifty thousand monsters inside. If we close the Spatial Gate, there won't be any monsters sneaking inside, and we don't need to search all over again."

"Yeah. That's what I mean. So, that is possible, right?"

"I don't know. According to the theory, yes. But I need to know the level of Spatial Gate to forcefully close it." Alex nodded.

"Alright. I will leave everything to you." Firia rose from the ground and walked away, recovering her Spiritual Energy.

The same applied to everyone since they used quite a huge amount of Spiritual Energy. The minotaurs just refused to die, so it was hard. On the other hand, Alex flew toward the gate before he fully recovered.

Looking at this gate, a thought crossed his mind. He stretched his hand and tried to manipulate the Space Element from within to check whether he could control it or not. He focused his entire being just for this moment, and suddenly, the portal shrunk slightly.

"It seems I can close the gate. Although it will be hard to close even a single gate, the safety is worth the effort." Alex then flew back and started recovering his lost energy.

Only after three hours the group finally went outside the Spatial Gate, and Alex closed the gate. He then went toward the first portal and closed it as well before heading toward the third gate.

Just like that, Alex's journey in defeating the entire fifty thousand Space Monsters began.

…

Two months and two weeks later.

"Leoz!" Alex shouted as he swung his sword, blowing away the centaur's sword to create a single opportunity for Leoz.

Without wasting a single second, Leoz appeared before him and split the centaur into two.

"We will go back now and finish this one as soon as possible," Alex ordered as he created a Spatial Gate toward the others before killing the rest of the centaurs.

He had been killing so many types of monsters in this place, starting from moving trees as the third type to this centaur as the last creatures in this realm.

Alex and the others began getting used to fighting the absurd strength from the Space Monsters, including their special characteristics. They somehow managed to speed up the process by two weeks from their initial guess.

Unfortunately, only some of them managed to reach the next level. Alex sighed and opened the status.

[Anna (Dark)

Level: 73/80 (3-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 456118/640000]

[Leoz (Thunder)

Level: 76/80 (6-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 487925/670000]

[Nelson (Dark)

Level: 72/80 (2-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 546776/630000]

[Fabio Fabotelli(Fire)

Level: 72/80 (2-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 233446/630000]

[Greg (Earth)

Level: 72/80 (2-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 252775/630000]

[Vera Fabotelli (Water)

Level: 72/80 (2-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 110021/630000]

[Jeanne (Thunder)

Level: 73/80 (3-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 472423/640000]

[Anya (Light)

Level: 72/80 (2-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 15467/630000]

[Artur (Light)

Level: 72/80 (2-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 45547/630000]

[Jean (Water)

Level: 72/80 (2-Star Martial Saint Stage)

Exp: 96554/630000]

As much as he was disappointed with the result, he was pretty satisfied when he saw the spirits had reached, at least, 2-Star Martial Saint. This was an easy task for him to use the Gacha Tickets.

[Gacha Ticket x760]

[Premium Ticket x0]

[Dart x0]

[Gacha Card x1]

[Gacha Coin x0]

[Gacha Hammer x0]

[Summoning Ticket x0]

[Summoning Coin x0]

"Well, it's lower than my expectation, but that's not the problem. With my EXP Cards, I can raise their level by one. And if I stretch it myself, I can somehow level them up another one and set their lowest level at 4-Star Martial Saint. Now that I think about it, if I only increase Anna's and Jeanne's level by one while I don't do anything with Leoz, I think I can level the rest up to 4-Star Martial Saints.

"Even though the UC EXP Cards only give ten thousand EXPs, I can still level up two people with my current amount, let alone after I use my current Gacha Tickets." Alex pondered for a moment before he glanced at Leoz.

"Master?" Leoz tilted his head in confusion.

"Leoz… What do you think if I don't increase your level and use them for the others?" Alex asked.

"I don't have any problem. In fact, you should do it. Our current situation doesn't need us to have a high-level Martial Saints, so it's better to raise the group's overall strength instead of mine." Leoz shook his head with a smile. "Albeit, I want Master to save up some EXP Cards later because there might be a need to use it."

"Are you talking about when you reach 10-Star Martial Saint?" Alex furrowed his eyebrows and asked.

"Yes. I think we might need to use the EXP Cards to fill our EXPs until they reach maximum." Leoz nodded.

"I see. I will save some… Now that I think about it, I haven't gotten the UR EXP Cards again." Alex thought for a moment. "No, I could say that I don't really get Summoning Tickets lately."

"It must be due to the increase in items. After all, a UR item alone is already rare, let alone UR EXP Cards. You need to get the Summoning Tickets first before getting the card itself."

"I know, but it still feels bad." Alex let out a long sigh. "Anyway, I will use my Gacha first and level you up."

Leoz nodded and walked away.

"System."

[Processing.]

[Sky Wine Jar (UC) x1]

[Heavenly Mud Brick (UC) x1]

…

…

[Sky Torching Spear (R) x1]

After that, the system used every single Summoning Coins and gave Alex twenty-five rare EXP Cards.

"System. Raise their level until they reach 4-Star Martial Saint. Are the EXP Cards enough?" Alex asked.

[Yes. That is enough. You will only have 1 EXP Card left after that.]

"Sure. I don't mind. Just do it." Alex nodded without hesitation.

[Processing.]

[Complete.]

[Every spirit now has reached 4-Star Martial Saint, except Leoz.]

"Thank you." Although he wasn't happy that he couldn't kill more monsters outside, reaching 4-Star Martial Saint like this already satisfied him. At the very least, they had completed their objective.

[You are not going to utilize the EXP Cards for the last battle? I thought you were going to use it and kill the monster with a barrage of attacks.]

"No. I have calculated it. Considering the monster is only a 3-Star Martial Saint with the power of 5-Star, we won't have that much problem since our group has reached 4-Star Martial Saint. And we still can use our True Spirit Body, making each of them equal to that monster."

[I see. If you are confident in that, I think it's alright. After all, according to the statistic, you have killed 49,999 monsters in this realm. That's why you only need to fight one last monster, and you have finished your mission.]

"Yes." Alex smiled before adding. "Besides, if I do that, it will feel like dying and reviving all over again. I don't like for them to have such an experience even if they say they can endure it."

[That's good then.]

Lin Xingzhi smiled behind the screen.

Alex, on the other hand, was wondering whether there was a shift within the realm since the last monster should appear after killing all these monsters.

He shook his head and sighed. "I will recover my strength first before checking the monster."

After recovering all of his energy, he and his group then left the Spatial Gate, only to find nothing other than the gate they just went through.

Alex didn't pay attention this time as he closed the gate carefully. The answer to their question appeared as soon as Alex closed the gate.

Another gate appeared out of nowhere, releasing a dense aura of Space Element.

"This is… Who creates a place with a huge amount of Space Element like this? This is like the Space World itself, and to build it, they must be so adept at Space Element." Alex frowned as he found the Spatial Gate and checked it.

He gulped down and entered the Spatial Gate in front of him despite feeling the ominous energy from the inside. The others followed him as they took out their weapons and raised their guard up.

To everyone's surprise, there was no scenery inside the place. No, in fact, the scenery was completely blue like the Space World. It could even be said it was the exact copy.

Alex furrowed his eyebrows and thought. 'I think this monster loves the environment of this Space World. However, he needs to seal himself inside one of the Spatial Gates to give everyone a place to live. That must be why he chose to create a Space World within a Space World. Although it is only an illusion, it's still better than nothing.'

When Alex thought about this, a wolf suddenly appeared out of nowhere and looked at Alex angrily. He noticed the Space Element inside Alex, so he locked onto Alex.

The spirits immediately spread out while Greg appeared in front of him, trying to protect Alex. They were waiting for his order. Alex took a deep breath and thought, "Should I assume that I am fighting Aileen at the moment?"

Alex walked slowly toward his friends, patting their back and leaving his Space Mark on everyone. Due to this action, the wolf hadn't moved yet, trying to learn what Alex would do in this situation.

Fortunately, he already finished drawing the Space Mark and returned to his original position. 'He seems to have intelligence. Considering his action and those eyes, I wonder if he can use every single Martial Art related to Space Element… Wait, now that I carefully observe his body. He seems to be a Space Destroyer Wolf. This is a rare species that only loses to the Space Beast. The comparison is the same as Phoenixes and Sherry. One is an expert, while the other one is a master. This is going to be hard.'

Alex also found a pink ball inside his body. He didn't know what this ball was, but he saw a huge amount of Space Energy. Looking back in Zwaka's palace, he realized that this ball was the inheritance from that Space God.

"Be careful against his trick," Alex warned everyone before taking out his weapons. "I will handle all his Space Techniques, but I think I might miss some of them. That's why you all need to prepare for the worst."

"Understood." The group nodded as they released their Spiritual Energy.

The wolf howled as loud as possible before charging toward them, except this time, a Spatial Gate appeared right in front of him, swallowing him as a hole… or so he thought.

Another Spatial Gate appeared behind Alex as the wolf emerged from within, attacking Alex from behind.

"!!!"
