Chapter 439: Summon the Necromancers
This fight made me lose ten thousand in total, yet I managed to gain only two thousands. For my two commanders, this was a bitter fight, but for me it was a great fight!
"You will join my personal army," I decided, as these trees were as fast as my own demon and demoness, and they were much more deadly. Plus they were trees, who the hell would suspect a tree to be an enemy?
I had many plans for them, and the only drawback for them was their high requirements to have children; they needed pearls; lots of pearls!
Gaining those two thousands gained me twenty-five thousand pearls from my stingy system, yet this wasn't even close to making these two thousand mates and having two thousand children.
Also I learnt for the children to grow fast, they had to consume more pearls! That was such an endless pit for me!
"Let's go," I ordered and my grander army moved towards the next village.
As my army grew by double after the addition of Dredly's demons and werewolves, I started to divide the army into three; each headed into different directions to attack a village then regroup, or attack another village nearby.
We kept in touch all the time using the vampires, who I sensed their content in such a safe way. In return to their services, I allowed them to hunt down one village of races randomly every now and then.
Till the next dawn my crusade continued, giving me finally fifty village tokens, tens of thousands of villagers who were sent with escort towards my village, and over twenty thousand capable warriors.
"My lady, I'm ready," Lisely said in a big smile, "what do you want me to summon?"
"Hmm…" I thought and without any second thoughts I said: "Summon necromancers!"
My choice made my two commanders startled. The two thought the turn would be theirs to have strong armies, yet when they recalled those white bones, weak skeletons scattered everywhere, they couldn't help but be surprised by my choice.
"I have a feeling…" I paused, as I had this hunch that the Golam city wasn't simple and I would need those necromancers to help me conquer it.
"Ding Dong! You better summon a better unit!" and the system's sudden advice made me quite sure of my hunch.
"Summon necromancers," I ordered and my tone was much firmer than before.
"Alright," she nodded before hurrying to take out the fifty tokens which turned into ash while my system kept complaining and nagging me with his nonsense!
"Ding Dong! You can't waste such an opportunity! Summon another race, these are so weak!"
"Ding Dong! I can assure you from now that those skeletons would be smashed instantly when attacking the Golam city!"
"Ding Dong! Change them, they are pile of sh*t!"
"Ding Dong! C'mon, you deserve a better race, this chance is so hard to come by!"
"Shut the hell up! You gave me a headache already!!"
My sudden shout startled even Lisely who was so immersed in her business before glancing strangely at me in question. "Keep what you are doing," I said with an impatient tone and an angry tone.
"S- Sure," she replied before hurrying to summon the necromancers.
Just as the necromancers appeared, I was finally relieved of that system's annoying tone.
"My lady," the necromancers knelt to Lisely who simply pointed to me as she said: "She is my lady, and so you belong to her from now on."
"My lady," the necromancers instantly shifted their direction to me and I admired their lack of loyalty!
"What? Not even a single pearl?" I laughed as I knew how pissed off my system was.
"Ding Dong! Fifty thousand pearls."
"Wow, you are really a kid, getting angry here and there," I laughed and my laughs seemed to drive him mad, so mad that he even couldn't retort back!
"Listen up," I shouted as I waved with my spear to the entire world, "from this moment I want nothing else from you but to fill up this entire world with your strongest summons. I don't want normal skeletons, I want only the strongest!"
"My lady is mighty," they responded in unison before I leaned over Omad as I added, "Go and watch them carefully, any good seedlings make sure to bring them to my personal army. Also choose the strongest of them to be their leader."
"How can I judge their strength?" he asked before adding, "to me they are all weak!"
"The one who summons the strongest skeletons is their strongest," I chuckled before adding, "never underestimate them, alright?"
"Ok," he nodded and I felt my words didn't manage to penetrate his hard shell of beliefs regarding those necromancers.
"Alright, let's keep going," I shouted before turning to the vampires in my army, "go and tell Jen we will keep the operation going for a couple of days more. If she met any hard rock, make her retreat and send for reinforcements."
"Right away, my lady," one of them volunteered as he moved the next moment to the air away from our direction.
As for the rest of the vampires, they started their scout mission once more.
During the next couple of days we met a single problem; the number of villages we met was small!
In fact we found many, but strangely most of them were empty, even their tokens were taken away.
"Is there another predator out there?" I muttered after hardly gaining twenty tokens after two days of constant search, "or this is your dirty scheme?" I directed the suspicion towards the system.
"Ding Dong! I have no relation to this!"
"We'll see."
"Ding Dong! I'm innocent."
"Y'know, saying this keeps me suspecting you."
"Ding Dong! I did nothing! I'm innocent!"
"We'll see," I laughed while feeling more sure this was the doing of my nasty system.
On the fourth day I finally got wind of what was going on here.
"You said a giant army is gathering under the lead of a strange race?" I asked again to make sure I heard my vampire scout right, "it isn't human race?"
"No, it's a strange slim giant race resembling our demons but with wings."
I didn't know why, but when he said those words that nasty race that I once met before jumped to my mind. "Tsk, I just hope it's not those energy suckers," I muttered before adding, "or else I'll have to vent all my anger over you, my dear system!"
"Ding Dong! I've nothing to be related to this, I'm innocent."
"Yeah, I know you are!"
"Ding Dong! I really care!"
"Did I say otherwise?" I chuckled before adding, directing my words to the stunned vampire, "how much is their army?"
"Around a hundred thousand and it's growing."
I sighed, "this number is just too much for us to handle alone," I thought for a moment before adding, "go and spread the words, I want all to be assembled," I paused before adding, "and go to the village and bring my darling here."
"You mean…"
"Yes, I mean him," I laughed.
"Ding Dong! This is cheating!"
"Hahaha, see? Busted you nasty system," I laughed again before adding, "I want you to know, no matter how hard you try I'll always have a play up my sleeve to flip the tables and screw all your doings!"
"Ding Dong! Ding Dong!"
"Hahaha, keep ding donging me, this won't stop me, hahaha."
I was already in a great mood. My giant was the ace my system forgot I had!
But there was only one issue I looked over and was hit directly at the face with it!
"My lady, that army is moving," one of the vampires hurried to me from the air, shouting these words, "they are sending their fastest warriors to here as vanguard. In less than two hours almost thirty thousand Tesakos fighters will be here!"
"Tesakos?!!" I muttered in shock before angrily shouting at my system, "you gave them such ace unit? How dare you!!!"
"Ding Dong! It's not me!"
"Really?" I bitterly laughed, "Issue the order to retreat, we have to keep the distance fixed with them," I paused before adding, "and align our location all the time with Jen and her army," I turned my glance at the now peaceful horizon, "we have a rich prey to catch!"
"At once, my lady," the vampire moved with many others to different directions. I knew that my giant would take almost a day to come here, making me have to play it wise and calm, not falling directly in the nasty system trap.
"You want to play a run and catch contest, let's have it played to the fullest then," I muttered while my army was crossing the lands like their lives depended on that!
The news kept coming all the time from my vampire aerial network. The recent news told something that made my blood boil!
"You damned system!" I loudly cursed, "you dare to even give them flying races! And new ones as well! And in such great numbers!!"
