Chapter 1592 Going Out Of The Shielded Zone

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

[I’m going to send you a list of artefacts. Make sure to find the right owners for them] after buying all these artefacts, I pushed aside the one I needed, and sent just twenty artefacts out.

[This…] I sent them through the channel authority. And just when she received them, she rained lots of praising words and messages over me.

[You are the greatest leader ever!]

[I never got an artefact! Only dreamt about getting one! And now you are giving twenty for me? How generous!]

[These aren’t just for you] I rolled my eyes. I always felt Lily got a weird taste, and now she just proved it.

Girls would love any sparkling items, especially jewellery, but she loved artefacts, killing deadly weapons, or things to boost one’s stats.

How weird she really was! But that made her more alluring in my eyes. At least she was dependable.

[Come on! Give me a little extra, I want more, I deserve more!]

I didn’t know why but at this moment, I got very funny images in my head, images from the time when we were once together in a single bed.

[Tsk! Just distribute them and I promise if you did good, I’ll give you more]

[For me? Not giving them to me to deliver them to others?!]

[No, they’ll be solely for you] I started to see the importance of strengthening people like her in the army. She was the general leader of the armed forces of my kingdom. And such a strong and capable lady needed more artefacts to make her stand out in any battle. And that made me decide to arm up not only her, but others like Sara and Legend with artefacts.

Just imagining Sara armed with deadly defensive and offensive artefacts made me evilly grin. This girl… She was so rash and deadly, only lacking proper defence and strategy.

I couldn’t deal with the strategy problem, but could deal with the defence issue using artefacts.

And that was what I decided to do right away. I opened a chat with her and Legend, in addition to Lily, Isac, and Angelica.

These five were considered the core of my armed forces in different categories. One was the general leader, one was a scary tactician, another was a formidable logistics and support general, another was a great offensive general, and the last one was a brilliant architect and planner.

These five were the future pillars of my kingdom. “Why are most of them girls?” I looked at these names, and couldn’t help but wonder about such a thing.

Only Legend was a male, and he was… Still a kid, one who won’t rival me over these girls.

Wait… Sorry about that, but I forgot about my curse. So ladies, till later time, till I find a cure to this damn curse of mine.

Hopefully by the time I’d win all this, I’d end up with all of them. Damn! What a wild and crazy dream was that!

Anyway, I just selected five different artefacts, each boosting one stat, and sent these over to each of them.

But for Sara… I made sure to send out two more defensive artefacts, one extra for her close up leaders, and another working on a large and wide spread area.

She was… she was just a headache despite being too strong and outstanding as a general. I just hoped the extra defensive artefacts would be enough for her to survive all this.

And also hoped these artefacts would help the poor fellows who were following and fighting by her side.

[I did all I can for you, make me proud, kill the enemies, control this world] I sent this to all of the five who gained the artefacts, while sending an extra message to Lily, asking her to select capable generals and give the artefacts from the list I just sent to her.

“Time to teach everyone a lesson,” and as I did all this, I opened a portal, held my goggles, put the weird looking feather on one side of this, and luckily it stuck there.

Then I walked through the portal, and appeared at the battlefield I just left minutes ago.

The place there was still the same. The world was blindly bright, and I couldn’t see anything like before.

But this was no more! Right now I got my goggles! My new artefact!

“Let’s see how beneficial you are,” I muttered while lowering the goggles from my head to my eyes. And then magic happened.

The world that looked too bright to see a damn thing before changed, turned slightly dim, and I finally started to see little shapes and shadows.

Then these shadows started to appear more, showing more details, and finally I started to see lots of things.

“Tsk! These damn Exomachines… They survived as expected…” I saw lots of Exomachines standing in their place, not affected by the deadly shockwave that was coming out from my shields.

And for the first time ever, I saw what my shockwave really was. It wasn’t just as I expected before, not a unified form of wave that came out from the shields.

It was like thin filaments coming out from the shields. And that meant there were gaps in between these thin threads.

My threads were ineffective against the Exomachines, and now I got to know why my shockwave wasn’t effective either. How about the fire of my bones? Was it also formed in such a way?

I watched the attacks coming from my fallen gods. Well, compared to the shockwave, my fallen gods’ attacks were indeed quite effective. But it wasn’t enough.

The enemies were already too many to kill using the little fallen gods I got. Not to mention there were more Exomachines were coming from the far distance.

It seemed all the cyclopes got absorbed by the Exomachines, giving them enough power to resist my shockwave. Before this, Exomachines were vulnerable to my deadly attacks. At least they ended up like scraps of metal.

But now, they showed some sort of evolution, turning from the ones to sacrifice their lives for others, into the ones who were leading the charge.

“I can’t be hindered here,” I muttered, reminding myself to always focus on the more important goal. I got a defensive artefact, and a speedy one as well. But I got no solution to how to bring and carry my forces around.

Again, another part where my chariot excelled truly at! If I got it now, I’d simply rest my back, watch my girl move fast and unhindered, carrying my fallen gods, and let them kill and hunt anyone around.

But now, I got to move solo, face the enemies and decide to evade them for now.

What was special about keeping this place? Nothing! I came here and built this bubble of shields, attacked the enemies and tried to make a foothold for myself.

But that wasn’t the goal, that wasn’t the target. I got to go and save the god race from their bubble, that was the target.

And also killing lots of the enemies here, as this was one of the two main bases in this continent. Not to mention finding where the grand portal zone was, and destroying it.

So keeping myself here wasn’t going to work. I decided, called back all of my warriors, and started to flap my wings and move.

The god race bubble was just tens of miles away from here. It still looked like a towering pillar of the sky, and now I could see clearly it didn’t get a single damage at all.

In fact, and for a reason, I felt like many of my shockwave threads falling over it got absorbed and vanished without leaving a single scar behind.

“Destination is the god race bubble,” I shouted while raising my first high in the air before my body flashed like a lightning bolt, heading outside the shield.

The first moment I saw the world flash, as if I was back on my chariot. But then I went inside a very hot place, like I got soaked in a boiling oil world or something.

At this moment, the feather that I got worked and released a bubble that surrounded me and prevented that deadly heat feeling from arriving in my body.

It looked safe, for now. But I knew I’d need lots of bones to keep this going, if I ever travelled for a long distance or something.

But there was a delay in my travelling speed, and I couldn’t tell if it was thanks to the deadly world around me, or thanks to the feather.

Weren’t feathers famed for helping birds to fly fast or what?

When I came out of my shielded zone, the enemy seemed to finally find his chance to take me down. As I wanted to grab the god race and save them, the enemy wanted to do so, but after killing me first.
