We were the lowest race in this apocalypse. What if a new predator came into the picture? We wouldn’t lose our patheticst ce anyway.


    As for those strong races here, let them have their trouble. That might change a lot of things, hopefully creating new scenarios for me and my humans to thrive.


    But first I’d need to find a way and shut down these gates. This fight turned from a brutal fight to take control over the city to a much fiercer battle that would send a clear statement to those new enemies.


    A statement where they’d know that I wasn’t that easy prey, not the easy one they thought I’d be at least.


    If I lost here, then it would be like an invitation for them toe and target me at any ce I’d be at. It would turn my life into a nightmare.


    But if I won, they would realise they couldn’t take me down. At least they needed to better prepare first, find themselves a strong foothold here before acting against me again.


    That wouldn’t only buy myself valuable time, but also would forcibly add more races to the picture. They would expand their area of activity, sh against more races and start having trouble.


    Either the races here or that new race, both should have trouble. During which I’d justy low, y safe and build my forces, waiting for the right moment to attack.


    I’d simply turn the tables around with my victory here. The prey would turn to a predator, and the new race would be chased and I’d turn into a hunter.


    So it all came down to here and to my monsters I summoned from Albany city. They were already at the shore of thatke, fighting brutally against their foes.


    Yet they didn’t struggle, not until the first waves of them fell into water. I couldn’t see clearly what was going on, but I could see them moving in a nervous way, like drowning.


    Damn! I didn’t want them to drown! Just as I panicked, I found a weird thing happening. Each monster emitted a weird light while a message popped in front of my eyes.


    [Your monsters ask for temporary gaining support from the city aquatic building. Do you ept this request or not?]


    [To extend the effects of this building over each monster, you have to pay one thousand stat points]


    [Do you agree?]


    “Do it!” without even thinking about it I agreed. Damn! I never remembered the presence of such a building at all in the city.


    Where was it? Wasn’t it in the central region or what?


    [Stat points are deducted]


    [The effect is extending now over your thousand monsters]


    [You paid one million stat points]


    [The effect willst for one day]


    I didn’t hesitate to click over the dimmed chat window as I said:


    “Come to theke near my chariot’s location, get into water and help in killing all the monsters there.”


    If I was going to do it, if I had a slim chance of sess, then I’d go with all my might!


    “Turn this area into a piece of hell!” reaching this stage, it wasn’t time to hold back anymore, “use your full power, attack as you see fit but try to not harm the iing monsters or the central zone as possible.”


    *Roar!*


    My warriors roared before they started their spree of brutal attacks.


    This time the area around theke turned into a real piece of hell. Fire expanded all over the area, alongside terrifying sounds of explosions.


    From all directions, my scattered nine groups of monsters came. As they approached here, my warriors did as I ordered, controlled their attacks to avoid them.


    Yet that didn’t help too much for the central part. Many attacksnded there, causing considerable damage to humans fortifying themselves at that ce.


    I didn’t feel much towards them. After all I held my own doubts towards what they stand for.


    I shifted my attention fully over theke. The monsters that arrived first and got the blessing now stabilised and were fighting brutally against the aquatic monsters.


    They kept shing, killing lots of monsters there. But gradually I started to feel that theke would be obliterated totally with these bodies if this continued.


    “Two groups will work together to drag bodies outside theke, the rest will fight and kill,” as I feared such a situation would happen, so I decided to let some of my monsters act like sweepers and cleaners.


    Just before they could arrive at theke, the enemy of mine seemed to sense what I wanted to do. Monsters from all over the city roared and started to move in unison towards here.


    “Keep them away,” I simply gave this order before adding, “half of the fallen gods will disembark, the rest will follow me down there.”


    I knew this chance was created by an element of surprise. Waiting more might endanger my ns. Who knew what those Hectors could possibly do if given enough time to think.


    So I decided to move alongside my monsters once they entered theke. They would keep the monsters busy while I’d dive down below and secure that damn gate.


    As for the breathing under water problem, I just hoped that a building of mine would help me in this regard. If it could help other monsters to breath and move in the waters without any problems, it also could help me.


    The monsters arrived in less than a minute. They went directly to water while more were still pouring here.


    “I agree,” in the middle of all the violent shes and fights going on, I received a message from the system asking my permission to extend the building special effect over my monsters.


    Of course I agreed. And with a sh of bright white light, all my monsters gained the support of that building.


    And then it was time for me to follow.


    *Ssh!*


    Just the first thing that happened was for water toe fiercely against my chariot’s shield. The shield worked its magic and kept the water away, yet there was still one major problem I faced.


    Mobility!
