Chapter 741  Timeline

Once he was done eating, he organized his schedule to take care of his most immediate matters first. Ordinarily that would mean meeting with Charles, but Lex was looking forward to meeting the devil who wanted to host a 5 trillion MP event at his Inn.

The timing for such an event was not necessarily the best, considering the realm-wide situation. Moreover, in 6 months, or 5 and a half months now, the Inn would stop accepting new guests. If the event was going to take a long time, which he suspected it was, it would have to be delayed a few years. Lex did not mind, as he had more than enough MP to meet his needs for the moment.

He dressed up in his Host Attire and teleported over to his office, and had Mary invite Rocketfellow in. The devil arrived quite quickly, as if he had been awaiting a summoning to meet the Innkeeper.

"Innkeeper, it has been a while," the stylishly dressed devil said as he tipped his hat.

"I hope your time passed pleasantly," the Innkeeper replied calmly, a warm gentle smile on his face.

"Ah, I\'m afraid not," the devil replied, a hint of regret in his voice. "Some of my most recent ventures have all ended in failure. But, those are all small projects, and don\'t compare for what we have in store ahead. You see, while other matters also occupied me, I have also spent this time preparing to make our own version of Lady Cosmos the best possible. I think you will be quite interested in some of my propositions."

"I\'m sure you have prepared an excellent plan," the Innkeeper said, "but before we delve too deeply into these matters, I have to inform you of something, in case it might interfere with your timeline.

"The Midnight Inn is getting ready to undergo some… renovations, so to speak. As a result, in a little over five months, the Inn will stop accepting new guests for the foreseeable future. So, if the event is to occur over a long period of time, you may want to wait till afterwards."

The devil was surprised, and that could clearly be seen as he paused for a moment to reevaluate his thoughts. His excitement tempered just a bit and he leaned back into his chair as he went through some considerations.

"Actually, you know what? This is probably a good thing. This will allow us more time to refine the idea before we make our investment. Let\'s go over some of my plans and you can tell me what\'s appropriate…"

The meeting went on a lot longer than Lex anticipated, even though Lex\'s refusal to have contestants capture slaves and have them fight to the death put a real wrench in the devil\'s plans. Still, other than his casual cruelty, the devil had many good ideas, and Lex strongly believed that the event would be very successful.

The target audience for the event was Nascent level cultivators, and maybe even some Earth Immortals, both of whom had very long lives. As such, the event itself would also go on for ten years, at the very least, which would also justify the absurd amount of MP being invested in it.

The timeline for the event was pushed forward, which apparently suited the devil perfectly. He left the meeting with a smile, though the moment he teleported out of the Inn, his smile vanished.

"Karen, tell the others! The timeline has been pushed forward! We need to take action within two years! Prepare everything."

"Not an issue. The targets have already been found in the Suera galaxy, and we are in close contact with the Fuegan trying to work out a deal."

Back at the Inn, Lex could not help but groan. Although he was looking forward to the MP, he was not a fan of extremely long business meetings. He didn\'t know how businessmen back on Earth did it.

"Mary, send in Charles," Lex said after a few moments of allowing himself to be lazy. He had too much to catch up on.

Soon, a young, skinny man dressed in a doctor\'s coat stepped in. Although Lex did not show it on his face, he was impressed by the doctor\'s demeanor as he exhibited a calm and collected appearance, even in front of the Innkeeper. It had to be known that for anyone to meet him, they would have to cross his lobby, which was filled with an extremely strong pressure.

Since the pressure would automatically adjust to whoever was crossing, no one could ever have an easy time coming in. Yet this new doctor seemed perfectly fine coming into his office. In fact, it almost seemed like the doctor had already expected such an obstacle in his path. Not to mention how difficult it was for one to remain calm in the presence of the Innkeeper, with no cultivation at all!

Now that he was inside the Inn, Lex naturally scanned Charles, but still did not discover anything suspicious. His age was 17 years old, and he had no cultivation at all. His demeanor and knowledge did not match his credentials, but Lex was not on to judge.

"Doctor, I\'ve heard you\'re quite dissatisfied with how we run things here," said Lex, maintaining the calm and warm vibe of the Innkeeper.

"I would not say dissatisfied, sir. But I have many ideas I think you will like. Why don\'t you hear me out?"
