BXBX NOVEL Chapter 556 - 556
Gunner's leap in power was as exaggerated as Darius', especially when considering Earth's Guardian. Though it didn't seem to go up by much, its power had increased to levels that would give even the staunchest powerhouse a headache.
Gunner had a base 1500 Power and 1500 Constitution. Boosted by 1250%, this meant that during the utility of this bloodline skill, Gunner had 20,250 Power and 20,250 Constitution. At this point, Darius wondered if there was anything in Faust that could challenge Gunner's power, but he believed Vena wouldn't be so short-sighted.
He then moved onto Xela's skills, then closed the chapter on the current power-ups before focusing on his next task, the Satellite Launch, and the Demigod plan.

Done with the Elven Princess, Darius called them over and let them know it was time to go. They were more than ready to get a move on, so Darius activated Fast Travel and sent them back to the central base on Pokterr.
They appeared in the center of the base immediately, which was even more convenient than using spatial arrays. Darius checked in with Miranda and saw that the satellite was long ready to go.
Darius gave Miranda permission to launch. Immediately, the base became busy as robots moved up and down, preparing everything for a successful launch.
Darius teleported his group into a nearby observation room where they could watch the events. Darius observed calmly, but Gunner and Xela were practically glued to the glass as they were awed.
Soon, the countdown was given. 5… 4… 3… 2… 1… Launch!
The entire area began quaking as if an earthquake was going on, though that didn't faze any of the three in the room. Gunner and Xela watched the rocket that came up from underground expend huge amounts of power as it shot into the sky.
Since it used Source Energy, there was no need for fuel, which meant that the entire thing could be reused. Not that they were hurting for either energy or materials given the scale of their operation and nature of Faust.
Darius watched as the rocket easily entered outer orbit without any problems. The Itemancer didn't doubt that many powers around Faust that were at the True Lord level would be able to sense its movement, and he was curious to see how they would react.
His awe towards True Lords had reached an all-time low now that he was aware of the true source of their power, especially since he himself had interacted with it. Those who ignored it would remain in his good books and those who hindered it would become his next targets.
This was Darius' confidence!
.........…
The Jade Emperor was hosting the Heavenly Court, discussing the problems of the cultivation world and how to turn more Immortals into Celestials. Suddenly, the Jade Emperor's expression changed as he gazed upward.
His eyes glinted with interest as he rubbed his beard. "What an interesting toy."
However, his interest soon died as he returned to more pressing issues. The world of cultivation had no time for such trinkets.

Jack Frost held his staff over his shoulder as his bright blue eyes watched a bunch of yetilings play around in the snow. He was smiling with indolence when he suddenly frowned and looked up.
Ice swirled around him as he watched for a threat, only to notice that what he sensed was something leaving the planet. As such, he regained his calm and put it out of his mind.
After all, there was something far better to watch right before him.
..........
Yuli'ann Castoro was still lying down, huffing and puffing as he was only half asleep right now. After having sensed the Goddess, he had been too peeved to sleep and so was just lazing about while thinking about what he would do once he was free from this contract.
Just thinking about how long he had spent here made him snort fumes, yet he had to tolerate it as the benefits he was paid would make it all worthwhile. Especially since someone had managed to inherit his bloodline.
He could capture the fellow to replace himself while he returned to the Third Universe to join the Intergalactic War in the Gerdo Galaxy. It had been too long since he took part.
Suddenly, Yuli'ann cracked one eye open and gazed at a rocket that was climbing past his dragonperch.
He watched it reach its apex and unload its charge. When he saw what it was, his eyes gleamed as he nodded.
"Impressive! Using a satellite to monitor the world, whichever reincarnator she sent here has 10,000 IQ! Those fellows who came before were retards in comparison!"
