“Keep your hands back!”

Just as I reached the reign of the mega gate in the centre of this city, an earth shattering shout came from a direction outside the city.

It came all the way from the triangular space between the three cities. And it was such a familiar voice that made me smile when I heard it.

“Finally you came…” I didn’t show any signs of distress even when I spotted such a gigantic arm heading fast, so fast towards me.

It was the voice of that illusionist god successor, the one I cut one of his arms before. This time he seemed to use some sort of an ability to extend his arm all the way from the direction of the tower.

He came from that epic gate up there. I expected him to come from the gate over here. Yet as his arm was getting closer fast and bigger as it approached, I simply snapped my fingers and recalled all my fallen gods.

Previously when I faced him, I had only three fallen gods. But right now I have a larger number of them, almost close to fifty.

He wanted to play? Then I should gladly accompany him!

*Woosh!*

Just as the arm got closer to the outer border of the city, that dude used his crazy attacks from before. A storm erupted and a strong wave made of that godly essence exploded, moving in brutal fashion towards me, crushing everything in its path.

That’s what I was waiting for. I didn’t want to fight this dude this desperately except for this godly sentient essence. I had a good stack of it, but my consumption rate just got off the roof the more I summoned fallen gods.

“Crash that thing for me,” I pointed in lazy fashion towards the incoming threat. The fallen gods all used their ultimate abilities and landed a combined attack with their strongest hits.

And then I moved.

The attack they exerted was much fiercer and a lot different than the one this dude experienced from me before. I wasn’t using the attack of three fallen gods but almost fifty of them.

Previously my fallen gods barely managed to stop this brutal wave of attack with the help of Selvators and Berserkers. Yet this time it was doomed to be different.

Their attacks didn’t only manage to stop this wave, but it also pushed it back. This came as a surprise for that bastard as he exclaimed in shock. Yet I didn’t give him any time to react.

“Die!”

Last time I used the closure of the gate to chop his arm off. I couldn’t do this right now but instead I gave the order and all of my warriors on the chariot unleashed hell on his arm.

Even if he was a god, he couldn’t just stay there and defend against all of that! My grenades all exploded onto his arm, causing it to fiercely tremble and interrupting the use of his deadly attack.

My chariot already protected me inside that crazy attack. Yet at this moment, this deadly wave attack caused by his godly essence ceased all of sudden before turning into a solid form.

*Crack!* *Crack!* *Crush!*

Without any surprise, the consolidated wave of godly essence cracked and crushed under the immense pressure of my fallen gods combined attack.

At the last battle, that dude was controlling this wave using his arm. Yet he couldn’t do this at this moment. My weapons kept firing nonstop and his arm was rendered functionless.

On the other hand, and as my chariot with all the warriors and weapons in it were giving that dude hell, the combined attack of my fallen angels got freed from the wave godly essence attack and landed over his arm.

“Ahhhh! I’ll kill you! I’m going to f*ck you!” That dude was so bitter about losing. He couldn’t accept losing a second arm to me. I grinned evilly while swapping my light glaive and instead I summoned my strongest one; the glaive I couldn’t yet wield and acquired from the chariot!

Indeed I wasn’t able to wield it properly, but who said I needed to even sway it around to chop that dude’s arm? I simply jumped high in the air, travelled over his arm and simply summoned that heavy thing.

The moment I took it out, an indomitable force pressured over my entire body, aiming to crush me to the ground. I didn’t hold the glaive more than this one second, let it fall freely and instantly chopped that dude’s thick arm.

“Ahhh!”

Like a snake that got its head smashed, that dude screamed and retracted what was left of his arm. I simply landed back to my chariot using the rope I always used to jump on the ground with it.

As I climbed up again, I watched the big arm falling to the ground. This time I managed to get a big part of his arm, almost half way up to his humorous bone.

I didn’t put much hope on getting much of his arm. But strangely enough it looked like that dude was standing next to me and not just overextending his arm.

Wait… was he really here?

Once I reached up there, I hurriedly took a tour outside the city. That dude was nowhere to be seen. Either he escaped fast or I was just lucky to cut such a big part of his arm.

“Thanks little one,” I landed my chariot on the ground before jumping off and patted my precious glaive. It was deeply inserted in the ground but luckily for me, I didn’t need to take it out to store it back.

“Listen up,” as I got what I needed from here, I turned towards my valiant fallen gods, “go around and kill any remaining enemies here.”

“None will survive, my lord,” they all said in unison before spreading all over the city.

“Come,” I summoned all my Bulltors and shield warriors here. “Go and collect every single scrap of this material,” I pointed to the all dispersed godly essence, “and then go around the city and grab all the killed races and bring them all here.”

“Roar!”

For me this battle was already over. The enemy used all his tricks to stop me, even the angels jumped in.

Yet they failed! This mega gate was mine, alongside all the loot I’d get from those killed races here.

“Time to claim you baby,” as everything was settled, I flew towards that mega gate like a real conqueror. I didn’t need to join the attack anymore, and I simply claimed the mega gate to receive a weird message.

Congratulations! This is the first mega gate you acquire!

You got one favour point with the creators of the system

You currently have two favour points in your record

Having one more and you’ll achieve something great!

“Wait… I already got a mega gate before!” as I read this message, I couldn’t help but frown.

Wasn’t this my second mega gate or what?

Your previous mega gate wasn’t a completed one. This mega gate is considered your first to acquire

“Damn!” I cursed when I realised what went wrong here. That mega gate from before really lacked one gate to be completed. It was the gate that lay within the control of the Selvators.

If those dudes just abandoned their gate before I got there, perhaps this would be my second mega gate then.

“What’s that grand prize then? At least tell me about it so I can get pumped up,” with lack of interest I said while not waiting for anything good from the system.

But what came next made me greatly shocked and left me speechless for an entire minute!

You’ll get a heroic calling chance if you managed to gather up three favour points

Damn me! It was a chance for a heroic calling!! Was that thing really in my grasp?

I couldn’t help but turn my gaze towards a certain direction. If getting one mega gate would grant me one favour point, then what about getting more of these gates?

But the next message from the system crushed all my hopes and turned them into dust!

Warning: Gaining more mega gates won’t grant you anymore favour points

“F*ck you!!” This was the most suitable answer such a system would get from me. Damn dude! Couldn’t you just be a little generous here and count every single mega gate I acquire as a favour point?

Achieving a milestone will render that milestone worthless. To acquire more, you need to up the game and look to achieve stronger milestones

“Stronger milestones… Don’t tell me…” I turned my head towards a different direction this time. My eyes flashed with a realisation and a firm belief in what I should do next.

“I’ll get that missing favour point then,” I knew that having one more heroic calling was simply crucial to my future plans.

I placed the goal of establishing a world wide, human exclusive method of communication as top priority in my plans.

I lacked a way to do it, and above all I lacked a means to distribute the good news to everyone. I only had one heroic calling in reserve. So having one more meant I could use heroic calling to deliver the news.

That meant all that was left was to find a way to create such a unique and secret way of communication. And of course I wasn’t without ideas to solve this.

The Bringold impact of course!

But that would come after I start my cultivation, and of course before meeting up with that impressive human girl chasing that dragon dude and kicking his ass.

“Alright,” as things got to this stage here, I wasn’t needed here. I simply called back my chariot, my warriors inside it, and took out my precious staff.

As I gained control over the cities, I stored bookmarks linking to all of them. I did that to just facilitate moving in between the cities, but now I could use this to jump into Irvington city and join the fun there.

*Fwoosh!*

Just as I appeared there, I found things just similar to what I experienced at Elizabeth city.

The enemy forces all over the city weren’t a match to my forces in number or quality. Even when my forces were fighting without my immensely oppressive deadly warriors and summoners, they still managed to crush them at any encounter.

When I summoned my chariot, I found the fight was raging hot just a couple hundred metres away from the central castle and mega gate. The enemy kept pouring out lots of forces as expected, but they were all getting killed in a few minutes.

My forces were acting like a massive and brutal grinder, killing anything thrown at them while constantly pushing the line forward. They were moving slowly yet steadily.

“Alright, time to put an end to their struggle then,” I evilly grinned while summoning all my warriors that I recalled before.

“Go to your posts,” I said without even looking at them, “and kill anything you spot without showing mercy.”

“Roar!”

My chariot flashed forward in her inhumane speed before bringing me and my boys just on top of the central castle. I looked up at the gate and waited for the first wave of my chariot’s attacks to land fiercely over my enemies.

Then with ease I flew higher and took control over this mega gate just simply like that.

“Kill!”

As the mega gate closed up, the enemy lost its only way to send reinforcements here. What happened next was expected as the remaining forces got crushed without any suspense.

They didn’t even need my warriors’ help at this point. Yet I stayed before they took control over the central zones and started to push outwards to clear the entire city of hostiles.

Come to me now! At this point I sent over Karoline, Sara, and Leo to come and meet with me.

After all, gaining control over two cities at one go was great and all, but losing them again would make a laugh out of me.

So after things got settled in the two cities like this, it was time to start arranging the defensive forces in them.
