Chapter 114: World Barrier (Part 2)

"World Barrier? What is that?" Evan asked when he heard a new word.

Liam shook his head and stood up. "Let’s go out first so that Alice and Erza can also clean themselves. I will tell you about this later."

As he spoke, Liam stood up and left the pond. Evan and Kevin also followed behind him.

Just then, Kevin seemed to remember something and asked Evan with a sly smile, "By the way, you didn’t hide any recording device here, right?"

Evan’s mouth twitched at his words, and he asked in a dead voice, "And why do you think I would hide something like this here?"

Kevin shrugged his shoulders and said in a matter-of-fact voice, "I know most humans are perverts, so I thought maybe you would try something like this. But let me warn you, don’t try anything like this because if Alice finds out about it, your life would be over."

"I am not a pervert, and I don’t even have any recording device on me," Evan said with a snort and started to put on his clothes.

When Evan was done getting dressed, he looked at Liam and saw him searching around the pond.

"What are you looking for?"

"I am just making sure that you didn’t hide any recording device here because I don’t want you to get killed by Alice and Erza," Liam replied without even bothering to look at him.

Evan couldn’t help but give both of them a deadpan look and wondered if they had encountered a recording incident before.

Shaking his head, he stopped bothering with them and used his Wind Monarch skill to blow warm air on his hair to dry it.

Seeing him using his skill in such a manner, Liam and Kevin fell silent and didn’t know what to say.

After a minute, Evan was done drying his hair and looked at them.

"Are you guys done with your search?"

Kevin and Liam nodded at his words. But Evan smiled slightly and pointed at the side of the pond.

"But I think you two forgot to search that area. Go on, search there as well."

Kevin and Liam’s mouths twitched at his sarcastic voice, and they gave a dry laugh.

"I never doubted you. It was this guy who started to search the area." Kevin pointed at Liam and immediately ran away.

Liam and Evan looked at his running figure and silently followed after him.

Soon, they arrived near the campfire that Alice and Erza had created.

When Erza saw them, she looked at Evan up and down with a confused look.

"Who is this guy, and where is that beggar?" She asked Liam with a baffled look.

Kevin almost laughed out loud when he heard Erza and barely held back his laughter.

Evan didn’t care about Erza’s words and sat down near the campfire with a calm look.

"Stop acting like a two-year-old kid, Erza," Alice said with a shake of her head and stood up.

"Let’s go. We should also clean ourselves."

Erza rolled her eyes upon hearing Alice and followed after her.

Suddenly, she remembered something and looked back at Evan.

"You didn’t hide any recording device there, right?"

Evan nearly spat out the water he was drinking and looked at her speechlessly.

He turned his head slightly and saw even Alice was looking at him suspiciously.

Evan couldn’t help but point at his face and ask helplessly, "Do I look like some kind of pervert or something?"

"All humans are perverts," Erza said in a tone as if it were a universal truth. "In this world, humans are one of the biggest buyers of female slaves. I don’t need to tell you what they do with those slaves, right?"

Evan fell silent at her words and sighed. "Don’t worry. I don’t even have a recording device. How can I hide it there to spy on you?"

Hearing this, Erza looked at him with narrowed eyes but didn’t say anything.

"Alright, stop bothering him. Let’s finish quickly so that we can go back," Alice said and pulled Erza away.

As they left, Evan stopped using his Wind Detection skill to observe the surroundings, as he really wasn’t a pervert and had no intention of observing them.

Once both of them were gone, Evan looked at Liam and Kevin with dead expressions.

Seeing Evan’s expression, Liam and Kevin coughed and tried their best to hold back their laughter.

"So, you asked about the World Barrier, right?" Liam spoke in order to change the subject.

Evan took a deep breath upon hearing Liam and nodded.

Liam organized his words for a moment before speaking.

"Actually, we are also not sure what exactly this World Barrier is. We are just Rank One Evolvers, and this World Barrier currently has nothing to do with us. As far as I know, you can’t become a Rank Five Evolver because of the existence of this World Barrier. Only after going beyond this World Barrier can one become a Rank Five Evolver..." Liam paused for a moment before continuing.

"I am not sure how someone can cross this World Barrier, but I am certain you at least have to reach Rank Four before you can feel the existence of this thing."

Kevin nodded at Liam’s words and added, "The strongest people on this planet and also on other planets are Rank Four Evolvers. There is no Rank Five Evolver in this world, as they simply can’t stay here because of the World Barrier."

Evan listened to their words and frowned slightly, as it was the first time he had heard about it.

Seeing him lost in thought, Liam added another thing so that he wouldn’t misunderstand.

"Also, although the highest level a person can reach is only Rank Four, don’t think the power of all the planets is the same. Take your planet, for example. Since it’s evolving for only two hundred years, the number of Rank Four Evolvers over there is limited. But here, on Planet Elvador, the number of Rank Four Evolvers is very high because of its long history."

Evan nodded, as he had already guessed this.

Just then, Liam remembered something and spoke.

"By the way, I don’t know if it’s true or not, but I heard that this barrier is something that came into existence because of the Source Seed Plan."
