The pillar extended for a long distance towards the sky. Just as I summoned it out, I used the shield skill at once without any delay, the Thundering Might skill.

And in the next few minutes, the dim sky started to shine under the effect of the pillar. A dome shaped shield appeared, surrounding an area of ten miles radius around me.

I knew my chariot’s shield was going to take lots of damage, so I decided to start up using this strong shield.

As the shield appeared, the forces coming here seemed to be startled. Their first reaction was by trying and testing this shield.

The shield wasn’t just protecting me, it also shielded me from their eyes. So they lost track of what I was doing inside.

The shield expanded with each passing minute until it clashed with the incoming forces. Like it was a gigantic shovel, it kept sweeping the enemies and pushing them further away without any exception.

The size of the vanguard forces wasn’t small. At least a couple hundred thousand forces were coming at me, only to be stopped by my shield.

“It’s good,” as the shield started to absorb the energy of the world and expand, I looked in satisfaction towards this. The shield was enough to give them a scare and keep them busy for now.

But I didn’t depend only on that. As I called back my pillar, I stored it away for now. The next step wasn’t for me to do it, but for someone else.

Are you ready? I sent and waited patiently for her answer.

I’ve done as you asked… But this will consume more energy from my side. Are you sure about this?

Don’t worry, I’ll give you ten bones once this is done

You are really generous… Tell me you don’t need a girl by your side?

I got so many to make me sleep well at night I rolled my eyes, Send the first batch here in five minutes

Great

I was speaking with the green winged nymph lady. As for what I asked her about, it was to organise something she gathered up before for me.

Once I closed the chat with her, I knew it was time for me to make the next step. The enemy forces were trying their best to crack open my shield, making me nod in satisfaction.

So far they were just working as I expected.

*Fwoosh!*

Just in the middle of their berserk attacks, my chariot moved fast and away. They were already surrounding my shield, but their number in the southern regions wasn’t that good as other parts.

As I went out, the forces here stopped attacking instantly. The shield of mine was so huge, it covered my chariot from the eyes of other forces.

But in less than five minutes, all the forces here stopped attacking my shield and started to run after me. Of course my chariot speed was something they couldn’t match.

And with the delay and difference in their responses, big gaps appeared between many of their forces.

“Attack,” I finally had a chance to get rid of many of them. My fallen gods were my reaping death scythes. Their attacks landed and swept clean lots of lives.

What helped was the scattered pattern of these forces. They were in many groups, running without much order or organisation at all.

Just in the next ten minutes, I cleaved lots of lives. When the scattered groups were forced to group themselves together, I took out my pillar and started using the skill again.

Do you want to pay one hundred thousand souls to reuse the pillar Thundering Might skill again?

Pay!

The skill I was using was once in a day free time use. But if I wanted to use it again, I had to pay a certain price or conquer a new city and use it over this city.

As I lacked any cities around here, and had no time to do it, I had to pay such a price.

But that didn’t make me worry. After all, just during the past few minutes I gained over fifty thousand souls thanks to my fallen gods.

If not for their merging together and stopping chasing after me for a few minutes, I’d have claimed enough souls to use this skill for free.

Anyway I only looked at all these millions as my own souls. As I paid the price, the pillar shook and extended towards the sky once more, giving the incoming forces a scare.

And that wasn’t all.

The shield this time was activated when many of them were closer to me than before.

That made almost a hundred thousand of them get into my shield without their agreement. As my shield was formed, any other forces coming here were fiercely stopped and pushed backwards without any mercy.

Send another batch! as I gained back my pillar, I instantly controlled my chariot and went out from the West side. As for those hundred thousand forces, I knew their souls were going into my account soon.

“There!”

“Kill that bastard!”

“Bring him down!”

As I went out so soon this time, the forces who were about to arrange themselves and attack the shield had to break up again and ran after me.

The sight of losing their friends in the shield in such a way made them all hectic. This time they didn’t listen to any orders from their generals, just kept coming at me even in groups with few numbers to have less than a hundred members in each.

But I didn’t show any mercy to them. I just kept moving in big circles, hitting and killing all those crazy forces until a big army arrived.

Do you want to pay one hundred thousand souls to reuse the pillar Thundering Might skill again?

“Pay!”

Another use and another pay of a hundred thousand souls. Just as I did this couple more times, the next thing I got was a message from Fang.
