Yet he was dependable. So far he worked so well with my team, never heard a singlement orin about him and his gaming force.


    I might have a little talk with himter, trying to get better knowledge about this gamingmunity and how to get them to my side.


    As for the half a day limit I gave to the gamers here, I knew they wouldn’t spend all this time thinking about my offer. I bet in a few hours they’de and show their agreement.


    If not, then they were weed to leave my entire territory, seek anothernd to fight and try to survive at. Good luck for them if they chose that.


    “Now it’s time to reap the benefits,” as I finished my business here, I left half of my dragons flying around the central zone. I gave them instructions to kill anyone trying to run away during the next couple hours.


    They’d be traitors. I also wanted to leave a threatening reminder of my power, seen by all of them all the time. This way their agreement would be much easier and a lot faster.


    I led my chariot and went towards therge mountains gathered from the dead bodies of these monsters. The mere sight of such astronomical numbers of monsters made me realise how hard that fight was.


    Just thinking about the tactics these Hectors used here left me wary and speechless. They were big spenders, even much wealthier than the Dragons.


    Dragons used to spend much over themselves, very stingy if they were faced in the same situation like thest battle I had. If they knew the fight would be a loss, they would instantly retreat, or at least try to cut short their losses.


    But these Hectors… They kept sending off these monsters like they were throwing sand from a desert! They aimed to wear me down, much dying my march at all costs.


    That was a goal I could understand, but what was really terrifying was their readiness to pay anything to achieve their goals. Even throwing out wealth and forces like these monsters was nothing in their eyes.


    One had to know these monsters weren’t simplymon monsters from the apocalypse. They were hybrid aquatic monsters, a very special kind of monster.


    Hybrid monsters wouldn’t appear before quest seven or eight. As for hybrid aquatic monsters, they would appear roughly at quest eleven and twelve.


    That meant they paid a hefty price to get such monsters this early on. After all the apocalypses at the twenty realms were running at the same pace.


    Anyway, I had such a big harvest. Just the materials and coresing from these would be enough to bring a fortune to me.


    When I arrived there, the first thing I noticed was the different colours of the monster parts. The entire body was formed from a giant trunk, a globr shaped head with two rows of vertical eyes, and six tentacles like octopus.


    The colour of all these parts was simrly pale red, much closer to being pink in colour. But the two thick and arched tentacles that were used tounch projectiles were in deep purple colour.


    From the first nce, the special part of these monsters was the big thick arms. I recalled how they kept firing at me deadly projectiles without any rest, defying any logic ormon sense.


    I had to see what caused such innocent looking arms to be so deadly in battles. I took out my light weighted ive, and started cutting through the body of the first monster I found.


    The first thing I noticed was the strange structure inside the body of that monster. The two thick arms were attached to the back of the trunk. From there, I found two tube-like structuresing together at the central part of the trunk, ending at aplicated structure there.


    It looked like a beehive, somethingplicated and organic based. In the centre of it, there was the main core of the monster. It was a big oval shaped dark purple coloured core, looking like a big ck purple egg or something.


    When I grabbed it, it felt like I was cutting through tissue connecting this core with the structure ity within. When I grabbed it out, the dark purple colour of the arms vanished, and reced with pale red colour like the rest of the body.


    “So you are still providing energy to these arms… Interesting!” I grabbed it in my hand and tried to see what was special about it. Just as I was doing this, this core touched the ive in my hand, and then an interesting thing happened.


    My ive vibrated, shook out of the blue while emitting dark purple colour. In a reflex I moved it away, and then that ck purple colour vanished as if it wasn’t even there.


    “Hmm… So you can provide your energy to other gears… Let’s see what effects you’ll give to my ive then,” this time I attached it on purpose with my ive.


    The ive felt as if it was much lighter than before. I took out some rope to bind the two together, turned to the edge of my chariot and simply waved it.


    My warriors gathered the dead bodies of the monsters outside the city. The closest part of the city to here was filled with ruins, nothing more.


    My ive was a sharp weapon, enough to cut through the thick skin of my enemies. But it had to be held and had to attack directly to cause such an effect.


    I tried more than once to throw it and the result was satisfying. Yet I had to go and acquire it again, something that made me refrain from using such tactics a lot in any fight.


    But now? Just as I waved my ive, its dark purple energy gathered at its sharp de before releasing a crescentic shaped energy arc that travelled so fast towards the ground.


    *Boom!*!
