Chapter 418 - A Sense Of Overwhelming Fear
Arthur kept attacking the world until another change started to annoy him. It happened at world number two thousand and fifty-three where he didn't find any pillar in his eyes.
"Where is the pillar? Did they move it away?" he was surprised and this thought just popped up into his mind.
'Ding! No, the world contains the pillar,' the system said, 'Ding! I can feel it already.'
"Then where?"
'Ding! At the normal place.'
Arthur squinted his eyes again, yet he didn't see anything. "Are you sure?" he asked.
'Ding! Just go there and you'll find a dirty trick for them for sure.'
"But…" he glanced around before adding, "I have to clear this world first and that will take some time."
'Ding! You can leave them for later, just see what happened to the pillar.'
"Ok," Arthur went directly towards the place the pillar was supposed to be. Just a couple of miles away, and after releasing over fifty arrows to clear his path; he finally spotted something on the ground.
His arrows used to detonate and cause a mass destruction, yet at a specific area the destruction stopped abruptly, forming a shape that wasn't strange to him.
"A portal?" he muttered before adding, "a hidden portal?"
'Ding! That's the scheme this time it seems,' the system said, 'Ding! I can help you move the portal to your world, but if it has the pillar inside then I can't do it without cracking the pillar first.'
"I bet the pillar is inside that world," Arthur muttered before adding, "can you let me in?"
'Ding! I can use force to crack the seal over the portal,' the system said while Arthur examined the portal after the subside of the destruction effect, 'Ding! But you'll need to use an array for me to augment.'
"Sigh, more time," he shook his head, "why are they doing that?"
'Ding! They seem to be waiting for something, or someone.'
"Logical," Arthur then started to take out his own tools and started making some arrays to remove this seal over the portal. For his bad luck, it wasn't just one seal but twelve.
"Damn! They really are trying their best to delay me!" he complained and when he entered the new world, he found the pillar erected in the center of it alongside huge armies that took him a couple of hours to pass through.
"Not only taking away the pillar to another world, but linking hundreds of normal worlds to it, tsk!"
He was really irritated by this, and when he returned to the first world, he had to fight for an hour to return back to the star map while controlling the pillar's energy.
"This is ridiculous!" he shouted in a loud tone when he reached the three thousand world. He experienced this tiring arrangement of his enemies in all the worlds before this one, and so he was already exhausted and wasted much time.
'Ding! Do you need to rest?' the system suggested.
"Can't," he answered, "I have to finish this task before resting for some time. These people… I bet they are trying to fortify their main defenses at the main clan headquarter with all their might."
'Ding! I have a suggestion,' after long hours of fighting and when Arthur returned to his star map, the system said.
"No, I won't call these two up to here again," he shook his head, as he knew what his system was going to say.
'Ding! But…'
"No, I have to do this on my own like usual," Arthur said, "depending too much on others who don't serve you is a mistake. What if I got used to this and they didn't show up?" he said before shrugging, "I have to deal with every problem as if I was on my own and have only those who already serve me."
'Ding! Nice logic and a tiring one.'
"Hehehe, who said life is a piece of cake," Arthur smiled before jumping towards the next world and started his massacre.
This kept going on for days, and almost one month passed in his star map before he could finish everything. The time inside his garden was much faster than the time outside, and he was already inside the city world, making him not lose much time in the outside world.
Since he started hunting these pillars down, only a couple of days passed in the academy world, and only ten days in the city world.
As he reached the final hundred worlds, he had this nagging feeling of danger every now and then. He didn't know what was going on, but every world he took down of these hundred had his feelings intensified.
"This feeling…" he conquered the fifty world successfully, leaving only fifty remaining and the one related to the main headquarters of that clan. "I think it's better to summon those two noisy people then."
'Ding! Good decision,' the system also felt the same sense of danger and warned and asked him to do that for a couple of times already. 'Ding! I'll look for them using the portal linked via your garden to the city world, hopefully they are next to one of them.'
"If not then I'll have to retreat and look for them myself," Arthur said before adding, "start with the city, I'm pretty sure they won't leave it unwatched all the time."
The system started looking for Amanda and Mr. E, and in less than five minutes it said: 'Ding! I really found them in your city.'
"Good, make them enter here then."
'Ding! But…' the system hesitated.
"But what?"
'Ding! They aren't alone, they have a lot of masters with them.'
Arthur was speechless for a moment there before saying: "Are they hijacking my city? Curse these two!!"
'Ding! They have the power and authority to do that!'
"Not here, not in my city! Damn it! It seems I have to go there myself then," Arthur was totally infuriated, yet his system tried its best to drive reason to him.
'Ding! I think the more the better.'
