Chapter 1282 The Golden Quest Notification
Chapter 1282 The Golden Quest Notification
After taking care of things here, I returned using one of the portals back to Earth before going to the second world in the list.
If things kept going on like this, then I'd waste ten more days in controlling these worlds at least. And that would mean one month passed since the start of this fifth quest.
"I believe I won't be able to do that final battle before the golden quest," I knew this would be an impossible feat right now.
Despite not liking such a result, I soon accepted it. This was the best result I could get from such a trap. Or else wasting more force would have brought more headache to me.
Accepting such a result, I started to focus entirely on taking down this worlds. If I couldn't get to fight the Hescos at the final showdown between the two of us, decide the final victor of this apocalypse trial, then I'd make sure to take any benefit I could from these battles.
To make sure I'd spend either my forces or my time in dealing with these worlds, the Hescos seemed to select the strongest race in each world.
Each world I visited had tons of elite forces of very interesting races. And in one of them I found a flying race whom I deeply desired.
Once I spotted this race, I instantly ordered my forces to entirely withdraw from the fight. Each and every single one of these flying race members was like a gem in my eyes.
When I saw the entire world filled to the brim with such a race, I couldn't help but be deeply grateful to the Hescos for such immense help.
I lacked nothing more than flying units in my armies. And right now the biggest aerial force came from the monsters, zombies, and Hescos themselves.
So the moment I saw such a treasure trove, I didn't stand seeing my forces killing them. After withdrawing all the armies back, I stepped forward alone, and dealt with this entire place using my threads only.
I'd spend much more than expected, but it was worth it. Besides, trying to speed things up wouldn't help anymore.
I was quite sure that the golden quests would start any time soon anyway. So spending more days here wasn't a big deal.
My most feared thing was for the golden quests to kick in before I'd rope most if not all of this race. And so I used my bones, accelerated things up, and didn't mind suffering pain from the immense energy entering my body.
I used my two hands to cast the technique of mine. At first, I flew past all the cities and towns here, letting a few threads invade a small portion of the population inside.
Doing that took me roughly half a day. And in the end I looked like a spider king taking control over an entire cave using his sticky threads.
By this time, the threads mostly took control over their hosts. And then I pushed things over to the max, and started an all out recruitment process that lasted for days.
I didn't favour a single territory over the other, kept my threads working all over the place equally and invaded the people living inside. After some point, I couldn't tolerate the insane suction rate of these threads even when using my bones.
So I started waves of making these folks sign loyalty contracts with me.
It took me the entire five days and six nights to get it all done. And when I saw the endless number of forces I gained here, I couldn't help but widely grin.
And then evil intentions developed about this entire world!
"Don't forget, know everything related to this world from them and draw a detailed map of the flying races in this world," I gathered up the all speechless generals and gave them such strict orders.
"But lord…" one of them looked at the others before adding, "we can do that for sure. But about the other thing…"
"Don't take a single step outside this place, do you hear me?" I didn't give them any room for negotiation here.
In my eyes, this entire world was like a hot cake, something I deeply and crazily craved for. If I finally found a way to solve the great problem of flying units, then they had to listen to my orders.
"But…"
"If you can't do it, then feel free to come back and help others in other worlds," I knew asking this from them would be too much. I didn't know what was the relation between my generals, but it seemed to be a bit competitive.
If they didn't achieve something here, then it seemed they couldn't face up to their comrades in arms. I wanted this world to be left for me to deal entirely with it after the golden quests. But I wasn't that stubborn and selfish person to let others suffer for my decision.
Besides, other battlefields also needed more armies, especially that fateful last one.
"Sure, but what about here?" one of the five generals asked, not refusing my proposal to leave here.
"Just select a group of capable general candidates from your armies," I paused before adding, "this world isn't filled with flying races only. So fights are destined to happen. This is a good chance for them to prove how worthy they are."
After dealing with this matter, I left this world to them to handle before heading towards others. I left my last instructions to make use of the entire forces they got, and take over the entire zone here.
As for these flying dudes I gained, they'd be sent back to Earth. I informed Lily about them, asking her to start amassing them in separate armies and appoint capable generals to lead them.
I asked her that if they weren't on par in strength with our people, which was something I couldn't tell as I didn't fight them, then she was free to send them back into the second Earth world to let them train there.
