Only one wave of ultimate attacks of them was enough to clear the entire area around the hole for almost hundreds of metres. If I wanted, I could have let them stay here and keep killing the rest.

But it would be a waste of their might. I decided early on to leave this feast for my soulers.

As for my fallen gods, they still got a bigger stage to shine on.

This time the hole wasn’t protected by anyone from the inside. I was prepared to take another deadly hit from that ring of light, yet it seemed it was a one time attack or something.

That race… He has a lot in his arsenal. I hope they’d deplete most of their unique items by fighting the other races inside.

The moment I passed through the hole, I found the city stretching underneath. The first thing I spotted was the big surface of water lying just a few hundred metres away from me.

It was a lake! The first thing I saw here was such a big lake!

I instantly looked around. As expected, this lake was surrounded with dense numbers of monsters. Familiar big aquatic, octopus-like monsters were filling the entire land around the lake.

I turned to look at the map. According to it, the city here had three lakes in different sizes on the north, and one big river arching the southern borders of it.

That river was called Charles river. It was also what separated the city from Boston. According to the map and the size of the lake nearby, I knew this was the biggest lake here, called the Fresh Pond.

I didn’t know why I found the name quite silly. It was quite obvious this lake was formed of fresh pure water, not salty ocean waters.

Anyway this was what the citizens of this city decided to call this lake with. There must be one gate underneath this pond, with two others lying underneath much smaller lakes on the East from here.

As for the remaining two gates, I didn’t need to look or speculate for them. They must be underneath that river.

From my past experience in dealing with those monsters, I knew it wasn’t necessary for me to go searching for all the underwater gates.

The five gates would be linked together underneath the city in a giant underground space.

I knew I would only need to crash through one gate and then I’d find the other four waiting for me there. Yet the question here was: Should I attack this gate right here or wait?

Of course the decision wasn’t up to me to take. I just arrived in the city, so I lacked any knowledge about the current skirmishes going on all around the place.

Just moving my eyes around was enough to tell me how bad and complicated the situation here was. Every single inch in the city was bombarded by violent explosions, lightened up with many flashes of light.

To make the dark picture complete, thick tongues of smoke rose up from everywhere in the city. Yet what was remarkable was that many parts of the city were still intact.

That was weird! Just from the waves of explosions I heard, the city should be destroyed at least once!

But for unknown reasons, these devastating attacks only shook the city, and didn’t cause any significant damage to it.

The first thing I had to do now was to determine where the MIT campus was. I looked at the map and didn’t find any place marked for that significantly important place.

Sigh! I had to ask them for directions.

I forgot to add Maven as my friend before leaving. So the only two ways I had were to go and ask Hilary to ask him, or to directly find his contract among my long contract list in my profile and message him through it.

Of course I chose the first, it was much easier for Hilary to find him.

It’s situated near The big river in the south she sent me this message before adding, We already cleared the debris here. The shelter they have here is really colossal!

I didn’t know if that was a good or bad thing. All I needed now was for that shelter to be spacious enough to accommodate all my forces. Aside from that, it was meaningless for me to be honest.

But if my chick was interested in it, then I wouldn’t say a word against it.

I looked at the direction of the big river. At this moment I called my chariot again, filled it with my warriors. I didn’t summon any soulers, only dragons and fallen gods were enough.

After all, I didn’t intend to directly join the clashes here. I had to make a big tour around the city first before deciding anything else.

*Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!* *Fwoosh!*

Yet just as I was about to move, I was welcomed with a barrage of projectiles from the aquatic monsters around the pond. It wasn’t a big deal as I used the full speed of my chariot, directly avoiding such attacks.

Yet as I flew fast, the sky all around was filled with many flashing projectiles. It looked for a moment as if the ground and sky switched places and it was now raining from the ground instead of the sky!

My aim was to get away from the range of these projectiles and go towards that river. Just as I was getting closer to it, another volley of attack welcomed me from five different directions!

They all came from the directions of the river, but not from the same spot. Five different places… Interesting!

I knew there were two missing gates here, but when did they become five? I looked at the directions of the projectiles coming while controlling my chariot to evade most of them.

Of course their aim was clear; they wanted to stop me from getting to the MIT campus. Yet no matter how hard they tried, I’d arrive there.
