1207 Getting Ready
But this wasn’t true about Sara. She was a straightforward badass girl who loved to fight her enemies head on and take them down using brute force.
If the enemy tried to use tactics, then Sara wouldn’t be the best general to lead this expedition. However the enemy would try to use brute force and the superior aerial abilities to crush my forces.
So it’d be better to use brute force against theirs, and see whose might was better than the other.
I stood on the side without doing anything for now. I could have opened the next world but I’d prefer to wait for the preparations of my generals to be over.
“Lord, we are ready,” as I waited for almost a few hours, Loran led his people to go and bring all the orbs they captured so far from the other world.
I looked and counted, there were already a few hundred orbs down there, close to five hundred. “Grab a hundred and let’s go,” I said while heading towards the portal leading to the second Earth world.
The portal was already filled with many fighters moving out from the second Earth world. The armies inside were still pouring out according to our needs.
The zombie news all over the kingdom was reassuring. The zombies were under control for now. The only risk came from the western borders where the fight was still ongoing out there against dense numbers of zombies.
“Can you send people out to the western borders to take control over the dens there?” as Loran’s people moved the orbs towards the pocket world in the next hour, I suddenly asked Loran about this.
“I heard the situation there isn’t quite stable yet,” he looked at me in doubt.
“You can take a few armies with you, venture deeper into the unknown lands beyond my kingdom, and claim these dens,” I waved my arm. At this moment, my kingdom didn’t lack any armies to join such a simple task.
If they could do this in the new world out there, then why wouldn’t we use them to do it here? If they managed to claim dens close to the kingdom borders, things would be much calmer out there.
Not only we’d gain lots of orbs, but we could also help out forces out there. The pressure would be lesser, and the future huge battle against zombies would be much easier.
“Thanks lord, I’ll go to general Lily and Isac and arrange things over with them,” Loran said before retreating with his people. I started working over the orbs, turning them all into dens to produce zombies.
I gave them a single order via my mind, to stay behind and wait. They needed to accumulate their strength and build up their numbers. I wouldn’t use them until we reached the next Hescos world.
I left instructions for these zombies to follow the orders of Loran, Lily, and Isac if I ever needed them to move out.
As I went back to Earth, I prayed that the next few worlds wouldn’t open at Hescos’ mighty bases.
Or else I’d be forced to ignore these worlds for now, and that was something I didn’t want to do.
I returned and watched my generals work while the recording was still playing in the sky. Those who didn’t have anything to do were watching what happened out there. And during this wait, I sent a few devices with recorded balls to the other open worlds so far to let my forces there watch.
I wanted that jerk to know how terribly bad he was performing, compared to other generals of mine. I was growing more believing in that jumper’s bad luck. He was like a magnet to bad fortune.
But he had to find a way to overcome his bad luck, or else even with his supreme talent I’d be forced to throw him away.
I waited for an entire day before things became ready. The suits and apaches weren’t in large batches yet, but the research department seemed to store lots of them before this entire crusade started.
In addition to these, many weapons and ammunition were delivered from the pocket world. Besides, the armies were getting amassed in large numbers, ready to join any fight at any moment.
Little Qi also helped. This qilin sent lots of flying monsters, all looking scaringly strong. With them it also sent an endless number of flying monsters which were much weaker and smaller than the others.
Looking at the capital now and the area around it made anyone’s scalp grow numb out of fear. The sky was filled with endless flying monsters, and the ground was covered by endless warriors and fighters.
I didn’t stand idle all this time watching my men work. I kept taking out warriors and fed them with stat crystals. Silverlining also sent large amounts of stat crystals, besides tons of warriors as well.
He said this was his personal gift, in appreciation of the grand victory I achieved. It seemed the aftermath of that shocking battle was still rolling, and that reaped me many benefits.
He promised to give me something great and nice in a few days time, a thank you gift from the sovereign of his race. He also kept updating me of many funny jokes and humiliating comments coming from different strong races and powerhouses in the universe after they watched or heard the news.
I wasn’t that much interested in such news or comments. But when I listened to the tone of mockery in them, I couldn’t help but feel more worried.
It seemed the upcoming battle with Hescos would be bloody and grandier than I even imagined. Just from the reactions sent to me by Silverlining I could tell how terribly bad the current situation of Hescos was.
Their absolute pride and glory was in question right now, and it was all thanks to me. So if they didn’t come at me with everything they got next time, I’d believe the sun would rise from the west and not the east.
