Deus: We are all Lords

Chapter 35 XXXV

?The castle was large but it only covered a corner of the territory which should be about 18 acres in total considering that two (2) acres are added each time he levels up. The entire thing was covered by a mighty wall on which all the current inhabitants of the castle were on.

Aside that the wall that was at the edge of the territory, there was another wall, a secondary wall that somewhat divided the territory in two. This second wall was there for precaution, it was a place where his men could run to hide if face with a powerful monster or being. In other terms, it was a last line of defense for them, the wall didn't have any extra thing that the outer most wall didn't have.

It was a last defense mechanism simply because it allowed said monster to fall into his range of control. Kingsley teleported to the secondary wall in preparation since he didn't know what might happen.

Meanwhile Hestia and Viktor, using whatever means available to them vanished from the tower behind the first wall as they appeared on the wall itself.

"What are you thinking of" Hestia asked Viktor who looked as though he was spacing out

"They are here just as Master said" Viktor said as he could sense the presence of thousands of monsters in the forest outside the territory

"Huh?..…. My sensors can't pick up anything" Hestia said believing that the monsters were probably somewhere beyond her sensor's range.

Amongst them, Viktor was the one with the best senses due to his skill [Absolute Explorer] hence why his master had entrusted him with such an important mission.

...

The first event of the planet [Deus] will officially begin in 5….. 4…. 3…..2…..1

...

The system message came and immediately after, a loud rumbling was heard as the event officially began

...

Event

Type: Beast Tide

Scale: Adaptive based on Lord's might

Waves: 5

...

Seeing the system message, Kingsley didn't even flinch as he had long since expected it. He simply projected his consciousness to the first wall.

He couldn't leave the second wall as long as this battle lasted simply because he was it's main means of attack but nobody said anything about projecting himself there as a massive hologram to allow him see what was going on there.

What he saw was thousands of monsters rushing towards the wall. He couldn't see an end to the monsters, there were monsters of all kinds. From Goblins to Ogres, bears to slime kings. Another thing that Kingsley noticed was that every creature that resembled regular Earth Creatures were way bigger than normal.

The bears for example,  looked like trailers with legs as they bulldozed their way to the wall. Kingsley was sure that if they hit the wall, a massive dent would appear

"Attack!!" Viktor shouted when the monsters got within range and all ten demon goblins on the tower, released their arrows which flew out of their bows at speeds invisible to the naked eye as several monsters both small and large fell to the ground and died.

With the order released, Hestia immediately let loose as explosive bullets rained down on the monsters. Kingsley still found it a mystery as to how she was able to come up with bullets of all kinds depending on her opponent.

If the enemy is in a group then explosive shots were better because it would deal more damage. Single enemy but with thick skin or armor then armor piercing rounds. Basically she had bullets for all situations or in better terms, she was able to quickly judge the type of enemy she was up against.

"Viktor" Kingsley called out

"My Lord" Viktor answered looking up to the giant hologram then bowed and vanished from the wall.

Looking on, Kingsley saw him appear just a few meters from the corpse wall that Hestia and the demon Goblins had formed. He simply stood there without moving and soon an incredibly oppressive aura burst out of his body that even the Demon goblins both on and behind the wall, fell to their knees.

"This won't do" Kingsley said then waved his hand to remove Viktor's effect on the Demon Goblins after all they had their own duties.

"Hestia open the gates and open a path"

"Will do" Hestia replied as the gates opened up and a group of demon goblins wearing the standard military get up with riot shields and pistols in hand moved out

These were the newly created demon goblins, Kingsley had ordered them to put on their uniforms and head for the battlefield. It may seem irresponsible but they couldn't be killed with their uniforms on so he wanted them to go into the tide and kill to level up.

As for Viktor, the aura he realized stopped every goblin or goblin type creature within the tide in their tracks. Viktor had the skill [One Goblin to rule them all] which was essentially a skill that made it impossible for a goblin or goblin type creature to go against him hence all of them were stopped right in their tracks.

The main purpose for sending him out was simple, to use the tide as a means of recruiting more people for the castle. The system never mentioned anything about it nor was it against it so long as he found a way to make them submit and come over to his side, everything was fair game so this plan was born.

The plan was simple, Viktor makes the goblins submit while Kingsley helps temporarily pause the battle with his item's skill [Regal Aura]. Kingsley had found out that he may be completely unable to leave his domain but the influence of his items was not limited by this rule.

Seeing the ground squad close to the corpse wall, Kingsley immediately activated the skill as some sort of divine aura left his body forcing everything within the area to bow without exception. From Viktor to even the pitiful slimes in the tide, the aura was too much for any of them to handle.

Thankfully, in his bid for control, Kingsley had trained and somewhat mastered how to use the ability as well as he wanted. The skill just like his ability worked with thought and though it was difficult for a 21st century guy to maintain a clear image in mind, it wasn't impossible.

As someone who was born into a world rich in information, his brain was always busy doing one thing or the other but thankfully clearing his mind of all distractions was something he could do pretty easily.

So Kingsley willed his aura to exempt certain individuals from its hold. With that, Viktor and the rest were able to stand as the ground squad immediately made their way into the tide at speeds that showed their higher rank.
