Chapter 1594 Laying The Shield Ring Down

This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml

The enemies got surprised, I bet even they got delighted and excited. I heard a lot of weird shouts and roars, calling for arms and killing, before lots of attacks fell over my defensive shield.

“You are indeed quite energetic… Thundering Might!”

The first thing I did, even before I’d flap my wings and stop in midair, just a hundred metres or less away from the ground, was to summon my first bubble here.

The bubble expanded, pushing the fierce and blinding shockwave away. At the same time, it encompassed lots of forces inside.

And as the enemies felt ecstatic to finally have the chance to get to me, I didn’t disappoint them. “If only I got my cube working…” I sighed, waving my hands and releasing lots of warriors out.

Many warriors appeared, filling the grand defensive structure here. For a reason, this place was filled with many and very complicated defensive forts and buildings.

Then things turned out to be like the old and good days, the ones where battles were won with forces clashing and fighting against each other, not by my shields and enemy’s tricks.

I felt the urge to stretch out my muscles. I got pretty much pressured and exhausted during the last couple of days and even weeks.

I faced a challenge after another, ending up losing a lot of my assets and strength. Seeing the enemies down below, trying their hardest to surround me, wanting to take a bite before they’d fall on the hands of my forces, made me want to honour their efforts.

And so I took out my glaive, waved it in the air, and joined the fray.

I fought left and right, back and forth, in the air and the ground, while my glaive moved unhindered by anything, unstoppable, killing and cleaving bodies in its path.

“That was fun,” the rare moments when I tried to fight on the frontline, using my glaive and personal strength, were always so damn fun and amusing.

Unlike the long ranged fights and controlling others, this new way of fighting seemed more fun and exciting. Only if it wasn’t that slow in winning wars, very limited in the area affected by my might, I’d have considered using it.

But wars wouldn’t be won by my glaive alone, not the kind of wars I was fighting in.

And so I returned to use my old style, moved my wings and went high in the air, looked at the grand battle inside my shield from a high vantage point,

It went without saying that my forces were rocking it. The enemies were trapped inside, with no access towards their allies outside, and we’re facing a hungry and deadly wave after wave of my warriors.

No matter how hard the enemy resisted, they failed in the end. I needed to make sure things here were stable, as this was going to be one of the many anchor points in the entire shield ring… If not the most important one by far.

As I planned to go fast, travel as fast as I could to relay the entire ring, I knew I didn’t have enough time to deploy warriors and wait for them to crush their enemies.

That meant by the end of the day, when the ring would be established, the entire situation inside it would be quite severe and dangerous.

I didn’t want to just relay the ring, but to also control the area inside, before gushing out warriors to kill the enemies in between the ring and the god race bubble.

Without doing this, and by the time I’d free the god race, things would look ugly.

Taking control of my shield ring was something crucial. And that was why I thought about such anchor points.

These points would be on regular intervals, like a real anchor. I’d scatter lots of warriors there more than anywhere else, might even spend a little extra time at each point to make sure things were good.

With two anchor points surrounding a segment of the ring, then this area would be under control of my forces sooner or later.

There was no risk in letting the enemy forces converge and gather up, forming a grander army, one that wouldn’t look any much different than fighting outside in the open.

But to build all this, I needed the cornerstone of all this, my first anchor point, the first bubble, this one.

And that was why I took one hour to play and have fun, instead of waiting on the side and watching without doing much.

“Time to get this ring laid,” I didn’t yet know how huge this god race bubble was. But I’d give it three up to five days for me to wrap around it.

I moved, flapped my wings, used my artefacts to boost my speed, and turned like a ray of light, passing forward at an unprecedented speed.

I was even surprised by this insane speed. I thought I’d have enough time to lay down my shields and forces, but this…

*Fwoosh!*

I had to stop every second, lay down a shield, take out tons of warriors, before going to another jump and then do the same.

I didn’t have time to go back and do the repair myself. So I started to summon more shields at the same point, allowing the shields to expand on their own, merge together, and link the missing gaps in between my shields.

Gradually I started to get used to this routine. And as I deployed my shields, I also took out my warriors.

At the anchor points I planned before, I decided to leave ten times the size of forces I left at any other shield. In addition to that, I left also Kings and soulers to help these warriors securing the anchor points.

I thought I’d be much delayed by this, even double or triple what I estimated first in my mind before starting all this. But unlike what I expected, I took one day only to get it done!

“Weird… Why does it seem like a small bubble?” I thought about what I did, and soon enough I got what happened.

It wasn’t because the god race bubble was small or something, it was thanks to my insane speed to cover up such a grand distance in just one day.

After all, a single step forward was enough to cross twenty up to thirty miles. And that was the highest speed I ever enjoyed, even in the era of my chariot.

“I have to upgrade my chariot after it’s repaired, add these artefacts to it and see the results,” I grew curious about what would be the result if I used the highest form of my chariot coupled with all these artefacts.

How damn speedy would my chariot be? Would I be?

I looked at the entire shield ring I just created. It wasn’t yet all completed, as there were gaps here and there, but that wasn’t an issue.

I used more shields at the spot, adding more area and space to the already connected shields, while crossing the gaps that existed in my ring.

After doing this for an hour, I decided to stop and prepare for the next move.

The shield ring did its part brilliantly perfectly. It shielded the deadly shockwave outside, protecting it and the god race bubble from any damage coming from this attack.

It also prevented the enemies outside from finding their path inside. The only enemies who were here now were the ones left in between the shield ring and the god race bubble.

I knew the enemy had many ways to deal with my shields. And that was why I had to move, and I got to reach the god race fast.

The place where I should use the portals would be better placed inside the bubble. Like this, the god race would simply be teleported without the need to take many risks.

“Time to get things done,” I noticed that the enemies out there were trying their hardest to take down my shield ring. And for a reason, my shield ring seemed to have its own resistance at this crucial moment against those enemies.

At least this would buy me lots of time, enough to save the god race.

The shield ring wasn’t just the only means of defence I left here, but my warriors were. “Kill the enemies outside, attack from inside, don’t go out to take them down!”

I knew the deadly shockwave outside still had a few days left to die out. And so it’d be risky to let my warriors go out there and fight the enemy.

It was better to hunt the enemy’s closest forces from the shield ring, using any possible means to do this.
