1188 The Test Is A Success
“It’s happening!” Loran’s excited scream came from my side, almost this close from deafening my ears, “the orb got its full and now it’s ready to hatch.”
“Are we going to see another weird thing or what?” I rolled my eyes while recalling the weird things that kept happening in each of Loran’s plans.
That dude seemed to grow excited about succeeding his plans, but he never cared to fill me in about the little details regarding these plans.
“No, it’s just going to turn into a real den now,”‘ he beamed with a smile, as if he found his long lost love or something.
“I hope so,” I grew tired from watching weird events happening in the middle of these events. I turned my attention towards the den and waited for it to show me it’s true picture.
Come on! Show me what you could do, little boy!
In the next half an hour, the changes started to take shape. I could see a bottomless looking black hole in the place where the light was shining before.
The light faded over the past half an hour, ending up black in the end. I watched the first wave of zombies coming out from the newly formed den.
It was interesting. The den looked exactly like the dens I watched on the feedback before. The zombies that came out from it looked no much different than the ones surrounding the entire place here.
But for a reason, I felt like they were a bit stronger.
“Hahahaha! It worked! It worked! Hahahaha!” Loran was already on sky seven when he saw this. I felt all the generals around looking in a weird way towards him and the den, but I didn’t comment or say anything.
I keenly watched the newly formed zombies move out from the den, standing in protection around it as if they were some sort of loyal guards.
“How can I control them?” The zombies around seemed to sniff the same scent from these zombies, so they didn’t take the initiative to attack them.
But that wasn’t the point. I needed these zombies to act as fodders, attack the complicated and heavily fortified Hescos defensive base. So I needed to control them, otherwise all this wouldn’t matter.
“Lord can simply give them orders,” Loran said as if it was something easy to do. As I looked in doubt towards him, he added in clarification:
“These zombies are all connected to the lord via blood. So the lord can control them using your mind, giving them orders without the need to say a single word.”
“Does that work in a certain range? Is this limited to one world?” These were the most important questions right now. If this didn’t work, then it meant I had to go all the way into the other world of Hescos.
Doing this wouldn’t be feasible. Plus the den kept giving birth to new zombies, and these needed my orders to be relayed.
If this was the case, then it meant I had to stick around these dens for one month. That wasn’t practical, and would greatly impact my real plans.
“No, there is no limit to this,” but Loran’s next answer made me sigh in relief, “this link goes beyond any restriction, and doesn’t follow any logic or law.”
“That’s great,” I didn’t hurry to believe his words, took out my staff and opened a portal back to the capital. “Let’s go back,” I said before pointing at Lily, “you will remain behind. See if the zombies follow my orders or not. Then come back through this portal.”
“Sure,” she was smart to get what I wanted without the need to ask anything. I moved back to the capital with everyone, all except Lily and Loran.
The latter seemed too excited to leave. He wanted to check over the performance of these zombies, and I gave him permission to stay.
As for others, they followed me back. Once there, I simply thought about something and waited. I gave these zombies the order to attack the surrounding zombies, kill any of them without stopping.
After ten minutes, Lily and Loran flew through the portal and came to me. The look over their faces was enough to give me the answers I needed.
“It worked!” Loran was the first to speak, or to be precise he shouted amidst his laughs.
“They are slightly stronger than the normal zombies currently here,” Lily gave me more information, precisely what I wanted to hear.
I felt the zombies coming out from the den were slightly stronger, and with Lily’s confirmation I knew this was true.
“It seems I triggered some changes using my blood or using this technique of Loran,” I muttered before turning to Loran and others, “this plan is good to go. Let’s move all the orbs after I bind them with my blood. You have to teach them how to do it, and warn them about what will happen during the process.”
The last parts were said to Lily and Isac. the two nodded, and Loran volunteered to send more of his people there to supervise over things.
From what he said, this process was known to the higher echelon of his race. So the normal zombie race fighters didn’t know much about this.
I started to bind the orbs with my blood, noticing that more orbs were brought over here during the past hour.
At the same time, Lily and Isac taught a group of tens of thousands of their elite fighters about the process and what they would expect and what they should be wary of.
Loran, on the other hand, selected many of his people and started to teach them as well. During this, and as my blood needed time to control these orbs, I started to examine the ongoing battle out there.
One hour didn’t have much changes in the entire battlefield. The Hescos were still amassing their forces at the outer ring of defences, making that place look like it was never going to be breached.
