Chapter 420: We Are Destined to Be Enemies!
"Ding Dong! What are you afraid of? I won't take much, and you already have much!"
"Thanks, when I find myself stuck at this issue I won't hesitate to ask you," I lied so it would stop bothering me like this!
"Ding Dong! As you like, but away from the Golam's cities you won't find a solution fast."
"I will try my luck," I said without showing my happiness for his slipped tip. I planned to invade these cities soon anyway, so I now had one more reason to do so.
I waited for a couple of minutes before Ric came out with a group of old men from the inside. They seemed quite distressed as it seemed they didn't like what I did to their old chief.
"My esteemed lady, here is the high council of our village," Ric bowed in salute before saying this. I glanced over this group of five elders; I didn't like them!
"Will you kneel or not?" I harshly asked but they didn't comply.
"We want to ask about something first," one of them with short white hair said, "will we have an esteemed place in your village or not?"
"Tsk," I knew why I hated them from first sight, they reminded me of those arrogant useless nobles of the Frod empire. "No, only me and my army leaders can enjoy such a state," I coldly replied.
"Then we are destined to be enemies," just as he said this, he opened his closed fist and a strange ball fell from it. The next moment a screen of fog appeared and I was about to act.
"They are gone!" Ric suddenly said, stopping me in my tracks. "What do you mean?" I asked while trying to see through this thick cloud of black smoke.
"They have a treasure that can travel them far. I once heard them speak about it being connected to another large group of necromancers."
Despite the distressed tone of Ric, I wasn't worried or depressed at all! I was extremely excited by his words. "Are they near?" I asked, with much anticipation.
"I I don't know," he shook his head, before adding, "one of them only went there once. They kept this secret among themselves and the chief."
"Sigh," I shook my head before saying, "but they will come to attack here soon, right?"
"I I can't guarantee that," he was cautious while answering me, "but they are sly necromancers, and had very vengeful characters. I think they might ask for an army to come here."
I agreed with his words as I recalled the last words that the old man said. He wasn't stating anything, he was threatening me. "I love this threat," I muttered with a wide smile over my face. "What about the rest of the village?" I turned my gaze towards the village.
"They are all yours," Ric simply replied. "They are preparing to leave," he added, trying to explain why no one came out from there yet to greet me.
"Make them hurry then," I ordered before he bowed his head again and went fast inside the village.
As this would take time, I looked for Jen, Lily, and Mark. I found the three meeting together discussing something. "Here you are, what are you three meeting up for?" I asked as I forced myself upon their small meeting on one corner.
"We were talking about our losses," Jen said, with such a sad tone, "we have paid such a hefty price to secure those necromancers," she added, with a tone that told me she wanted to say more.
"And?"
"We were thinking about having some to replace our killed ones," she said it and as I thought about her idea, I found it interesting.
"You have the right to ask for compensation," I nodded, "when Ric returns, you are free to select five hundred necromancer each. Distribute them among your armies," I said as this seemed a nice boost to each army strength.
As for Ric, he would be left with a thousand and more. For necromancers, numbers weren't an issue.
"Thanks a lot my lady," Jen hurried to say while the other two expressed their gratitude. "I want you to fan out and spread to areas far from here. Fight hard and make sure to obtain more monsters," I said what I came here for.
"What if they didn't comply?" Mark asked.
"Just kill those resisting you," I casually replied, "if you face strong resistance then send someone to find me and I will come to aid you," I added, as my personal army will act as reinforcements for them.
"We will," Lily replied before she asked, "what about you? Will you return to the village?"
"No, I have another army venturing these lands. Plus I have other places to visit," I vaguely responded, as I would depend over them to seize monsters, over my demons and Tesakos to seize more species, and on my personal army to search for humans.
After all humans were best hunted by a human, right?
I waited for an entire hour before Ric came out with thousands of children, women, and old men. They all knelt once they exited the village, and Ric handed me the token of the village.
"Ding Dong! Congratulations on gaining more necromancers. You have gained ten thousand pearls as a reward."
I was pleased with this many pearls that were added to my account. After all these were mine from the beginning, and I had millions of these!
Not to count other players as well!
I took half an hour more to arrange things here. Ric gave what I promised others, before sending him to venture far to the distance. "Your mission is to go beyond my territory and wreak havoc as much as you like," I said to him before letting him leave with two thousand necromancers.
He took some women, strong and fight lovers, with him to replace the numbers given to others. As for the current necromancer, I took them with me back to the village.
I now had two village tokens, and it was time for me to use them.
