Chapter 1516 Bad News!

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

[No, I’ll tell you their story, tell everyone when we are going to meet up]

[Fine. But what about the home bases of these fiends? We got to conquer two more worlds when you were away]

[Oh… I totally forgot about them…] I paused, thought about going there and taking the bombs out, before deciding against the idea, [Spread the word, let’s just salvage anything we can use. Be it gears, technology, weapons, even books and knowledge… Let’s take all and leave back here]

[We are withdrawing?]

[Got a problem with that? We don’t need to do anything to their worlds to win this quest]

[I know, but we found lots of ore mines there!]

[It’s not worth the trouble] I knew if I went there and did my magic, no threat would come to these worlds.

However these homebases didn’t just harbour bombs. There was also that hidden tech deeply buried underneath the ground. And we’d suffer a lot if we didn’t find and defuse all of them.

[That reminds me of the request you asked me before… We found many deeply buried weird stuff. Do you want us to bring these back?]

[Sure… How many did you find in each world?]

[We didn’t find that much actually. At the first three worlds, we got around ten thousand pieces each. And we are still digging and finding more. But it takes lots of time and effort to find any, as these bastards made sure to hide them in places hard to reach. As for the newest two worlds, we just found less than a thousand piece each]

Her words made my earlier decision firmer. [Then let’s retreat. I’ll pay a visit to the angelic world, take almost a day before coming back]

[Ok, I’ll make sure everyone who matters will be present. The meeting will be at the central area of this zone, right?]

[Yes, let’s meet there]

I closed the chat with her, and was about to get ready to go to the angelic world to check over things there when I got two instant messages at the same time.

[Don’t go anywhere! There is something big about to happen!]

[Attention! A participant in the quest applied for a reform. The application is getting assessed, waiting for the price paid for it to get done]

What the heck was that?!!!

The first message came from none but Silverlining. And the other one came from the system.

A participant asked for a reform? Who is that? Don’t tell me the system considers the enemy as participants in the quest right now!

And what did that reform even mean?

As I got confused, I shifted my attention towards the first message.

[Dude… I hope you got news to tell me] I paused before adding, [What’s happening?]

[It’s… I don’t know if it’s good or bad. But something big is happening! And the Sovereigns here all asked me to hurry and deliver you this warning]

[Then tell… Tell me everything they told you about] I felt more unsettled with this. I was just close, this close from ending up on this page and returning back to my world again.

But when I felt I was going to have it easy and nice till the end, something seemed to come up, something unexpected and seemingly quite bad.

[Prepare for an all out, open war!]

[Dude, are you blind or what? I’ve been in such a war for a long time already!]

[No, no, this is different, this is something entirely different!]

[How so?] This dude didn’t yet tell me anything of value.

[This… Do you recall what happened back at your home planet?]

[Dude! Many crazy things happened back there! Can you be more specific please?]

[Ok… It’s like that… The Sovereigns here got a wind of a request that got applied by the fiends you are fighting. They are going to pay a hefty price, in return for merging all the worlds at your place together]

[Merging them together? Do you mean like merging all into one hell planet and world?]

[Yes, crazy stuff like that!] I sucked in a cold air of breath, before suddenly realising the crux of the issue here.

[How come they will ask for such a thing? Will this even help at all? They already lost! They didn’t have enough armies left, nothing to help at all!]

[No! That’s not true! They got something activated, something called the doomsday gate!]

[The… What?!] I didn’t get what he meant, but I felt like it was something troublesome without doubt.

[Shit! You gotta be kidding me, right?!!!]

[No! This is what this gate is called, and they already asked for it. And from the expression on my Sovereigns faces, it seemed they got to succeed in that!]

[F*ck! So we are going to fight against new and fresh elite armies!]

[Not just that! They are going to bring elites, ones on the calibre of you and other elites who took part in the quests so far since the start of this thing. It’s bad! You shall expect something horrible and terrifying!]

[Damn! And when I thought I was going to take a nap and rest! Dammit!] I paused for a long minute, trying to organise my wrecked thoughts, [But that also means my forces and the races I saved will be gathered together, right? It won’t be this bad!]

[Well… Tell me, if you just went to your home planet, found thirty worlds merging with it, would it be this easy to handle things? Control everything?]

[Control… Yes, that’s the trick behind all this…] my eyes suddenly flashed in realisation, [Thanks dude! You really inspired me with a great idea!]

[What idea? Are you alright? I didn’t say anything worthy of such a response!]
