971 They Are Making Progress

You need oceans of gears! Sigh! Tell me the number you want and I’ll see what I can do

She sent me such a frightening number! “Damn! Five hundred million gears? That’s…” I stood in daze while seeing such a great number.

After almost ten minutes, I regained my composure. I started first by inspecting my inventory.

Of course I got tons of gears, yet they weren’t even half enough. She asked for full body armours, different weapons, and also stat points!

Reading stat points reminded me of what I asked Silverlining about before. That damn incident got in that arrangement, making me forget about it.

I need gears, lots of them I sent over to him after checking the market. If I went by the current prices there, then forget about going broke, I’d need one hundred times my current wealth to just supply what I miss.

And that without including stat points in the mix!

And I need my stat points!

Ah, I got them here but forgot to send them over he also forgot amidst that stressful time he lived through, About gears… How many do you need? What grade do you want? And what type?

I sent him the number, and for an entire half an hour he didn’t send a single message.

Damn! Just this number alone was enough to scare the sh*t out of him.

Damn lord! Didn’t we send forces to you with gears and weapons?

I’m building new armies

Don’t tell me you are dealing with others? Hye, others will trick you! Giving you races without gears is a cheat!

Jerk! These people came from you!

Oh… I see… It’s normal, after all we only arm up those who used to serve as fighters and soldiers before

Stop bluffing! You said it yourself, these things should have come with my delivery! I want them free of charge!

This… Come on, get easy on me who told you to get heated up and target others when you were the one to blame? We just arm up those fighters, not everyone. What about this, I’ll secure whatever you need, half price offered, deal?

One tenth

Dude… I can’t… This will force me to take up the costs myself!

At least you’ll pay from the money you got by selling me out!

I was just pressuring him and venting part of my anger over. Can’t we do it for one third of the price then? I can shoulder any extra expenses this way. Please… I beg you…

Something told me if he was here, he’d end up on his knees, crying rivers of tears for me to agree.

Fine! But make sure more of my people will get armed next time

I will, I promise you I will…

I knew he would do his best to make it happen. Who told him to open his mouth early on before understanding everything about what was going on here?

As I closed the chat with him, I regretted not asking about the current status of that crazy sovereign delivery.

“Next time then,” I looked at the direction of the sea of forces coming up. Make these forces hold back for now. Let them watch and learn

This…

We’ll have to wait until I’d get enough gears for them I sighed, I’ll leave all the gears I had so far at the portal zone

You mean at the bomb site? Great! Those armed up can join and those who aren’t will wait and watch

Cool I didn’t like that bomb name. Thinking about the bomb, I thought about my research department.

Tell me you are delivering materials to the research people I sent this over to Angelica. She should be leading the great mining process at the grand mine continent.

And she also had to deliver materials over to the research continent.

I’m, do you think I’m this slacking?

I’m just asking

Where are you now? I want to see you

For a moment, I had a doubt about why she wanted to see me.

Relax! I missed you indeed, but I’m not calling you over just for that as if she read through my thoughts and doubts, she sent before adding, I found higher and special forms of ores in the deep layers of these veins. I want to give you these

Are they this special?

I didn’t dare to try anything out. They are giving me a bad feeling, especially with all these energy wisps and thick fog coming out from them as if they are burning!

Ok, I’m coming I paused, After I’m done with few things here

Dammit! Why is it so hard to see you alone?

Admit it! You want to meet me, hahaha!

Sure! I’m not the one running away as if he is chased by a deadly viper!

You are the viper, so it’s easy for you to say this

Come on! Am I not a sexy viper? Admit it!

Tsk! I have to go now

Damn you!

I knew she was trying her best to lure me to her bedroom. But girl, the more you tried, the more I’d resist.

After all, I was cursed with my girls! Or else you’d be already inside my bed.

I went first to fulfil what I promised. I emptied out all the gears and weapons from my inventory, leaving a grand series of mountains behind at the portal site.

I didn’t wait for long here. I inspected how the fresh forces here armed up part of them before heading out towards the brutal fighting grounds.

As they were the newly arrived forces, they joined the frontlines fast. Those older soldiers of mine acted as their leaders.

Well, at least this routine got engraved deeply inside their minds. After staying here for a few hours, I jumped towards the research continent.

Things there weren’t that much different than the first training grounds. Loud noises of explosions kept ranging all over the world, coming from many big guns getting tested.

I saw many fire deadly waves of energy pulses before they exploded. Few ended up with thick bellows of smoke, without much damage like others.
