Strongest Hammer God novel Chapter 1202

"Aaaaand there's another one," Kyle transmitted to the others.

"Another team?" Sebastian asked.

"Yep," Kyle answered.

They had been traveling for just a couple of minutes, and Kyle's Formation Arrays had already picked up another team. Since his Formation Arrays could sense the other team, they couldn't be too powerful.

"What do we do?" Abyssal Depths asked.

"If we keep going, we will be moving past them without entering their vicinity, most likely," Kyle answered. "I can't be sure how far their Sensing Formation Arrays can reach, but probably not that far."

"Ankylosaurus," Sebastian transmitted.

"Ankylosaurus," Kyle confirmed.

Abyssal Depths sighed. "Fine."

Ankylosaurus wouldn't actively enter a predator's territory to provoke a fight. It would simply keep going.

The team kept going forward without changing their direction, and after some time, Kyle's Formation Arrays lost sight of the other team. As expected, the other team's Sensing Formation Array hadn't picked them up.

Eventually, the team reached a Separating Line. If they crossed it, they would enter a new Planet. They decided against staying on their current Planet since it crawled with spawn campers.

"The Separating Line looks old, which means all the valuables have already been taken," Abyssal Depths explained. "There's no reason to investigate it too much."

When Planets collided, they formed Separating Lines, and these Separating Lines could unearth valuable treasures. Sadly, this one had been formed a while ago. The other teams had most likely already looked at it.

The team moved around the Separating Line and entered the vicinity of the neighboring Planet. Yet, as soon as they passed the Separating Line, their Communicators activated.

"Briar Brick Team has claimed this Planet for excavation. You are free to choose a route and travel through it," their Communicators said.

'I didn't even sense the Formation Array,' Kyle thought with some surprise. Naturally, in order to create this message, a Formation Array was needed.

Claiming a Planet for excavation meant that a team had put Formation Arrays near all of the connecting points of the Planet. In order to claim a Planet, a team needed to publicize their name.

It was important to note that claiming a Planet wasn't legally protected. Any team could just go to the Planet and attack the owner. However, by warning other teams, the claiming team wouldn't lose any Karmic Luck if they attacked the intruder.

Green looked through the Excursion Lobby and found the Briar Brick Team. While he looked at them, he also noticed one of them looking back at him. Naturally, Team Ankylosaurus had already been found.

The Briar Brick Team consisted of one Minor Immortal and four Adept Immortals. Even more, their Formation Array Master was better at making Formation Arrays than Kyle. He might even be an actual Beginner Immortal Formation Array Master.

'If I got serious, I could probably win this battle, but that would be a bad idea. I can't show too much of my power,' Kyle thought.

"Team Ankylosaurus just wants to travel to the next Planet," Kyle transmitted to the person looking at Green. "Is there still a free Planet nearby?"

A map of the Planet appeared in Kyle's head as the Formation Array Master sent him some information. One of the connecting points was highlighted. "Leave through here," the Formation Array Master transmitted.

"Thank you," Kyle answered. "We will honor your claim."

Team Ankylosaurus entered the Planet's vicinity but kept their distance. They didn't want to make it seem like they were scavenging for natural resources on the other team's territory.

After some minutes, the team reached the highlighted connecting point. The two Planets were not yet touching, but they were slowly moving towards each other. Within a couple of years, these Planets would most likely collide and create another Separating Line. The Briar Brick Team had probably claimed this Planet for exactly this reason. When the Planets collided, they might find something valuable.

The team moved towards the vicinity of the other Planet, and as soon as they entered, they got another notification. This Planet was also claimed, but by a different team.

This team had four Adept Immortals and a Minor Immortal as well.

'When the Planets collide, these two teams might enter a brutal battle,' Kyle thought. 'Alternatively, they might have already come to an agreement to share the resources.'

Kyle contacted the new team as well, and they also showed Kyle the way forward.

When they entered the next Planet, they didn't receive any notifications. It seemed like this Planet was not claimed, but that didn't mean that there was nobody here.

"Should we stay here?" Kyle asked.
