Chapter 502. “Rest”
The seventh shard, however, only came to their possession after almost a year.
To be exact, it was ten months and three weeks.
Right after obtaining the sixth shard, they were focused on building the third base more than anything. But this time, they planned to make the base bigger than the mountain one. After looking at the location, Radia agreed to turn it into a hub to prepare for the future eastern expansion, which meant they had to clean a large area around the Castle enough for an assembly.
Most of their forces were thus concentrated in that area; sterilizing the area from any beasts, checking for dungeon appearances, and leveling the field around the Castle. They did it while waiting for the construction materials from the outside. Since they wanted to make a higher and bigger watchtower, more materials than usual were needed, and the transport time was getting longer.
