1276 Dealing With The Seven Star Race
Before I could think of any idea about the Hescos’ true powers before mating with all these races, I saw the newly born dudes out there show signs of movement.
They started to sit straight before standing up. It was the moment of truth. Either they’d follow and listen to Stephen’s words, or they’d revolt and then I’d start acting.
Luckily they showed weakness and weren’t in their top form yet. If so, then taking control of them wouldn’t take much effort from me.
I waited and anxiously watched those seven stars race members stand up with shaking legs and trembling bodies.
And they started to move.
“Phew! They decided to follow his orders… It’s still too soon to celebrate, but it’s a good sign nonetheless,” I muttered softly to myself, while watching more of these newborns walking in unstable steps towards my direction.
The real test would be through signing contracts of loyalty with me. If they refused or resisted, then I’d start sending out my threads.
Slowly they came closer, and more of them began to show up from a far distance. It was a good sign, but I didn’t know how many of them were out there.
“Go and check over the various continents and this one situation,” as I couldn’t move yet, I brought out a few of my dragons and let my Lucas and a bunch of his soulers ride over them.
I motioned towards the direction of the portal zone nearby. They could go out there and start wandering the continents.
It’d be great if such a phenomenon happened in this continent without affecting the entire world. However I still recalled what Stephen said before about his need for an entire world for his race.
If that was true, then such a phenomenon would have appeared all over the world, not just in this continent.
The members of his race in this continent would find it easy and simple to come here, but others on other continents wouldn’t. If so, then I’d have to take him on a grand tour around the world, gathering up his race members and making them sign a contract with me willingly or by force.
Soon enough the scouts I sent came back with bad news. As I expected, that phenomenon happened all across the planet.
“Go and check the pocket world,” If such a thing happened there, then the situation would look much worse than now.
It wasn’t just the problem of controlling these dudes, but the fear of chaos erupting. Imagine the appearance of these dudes all over the place, even in the middle of training grounds and such places.
My people would consider them as invaders and enemies. So without even waiting for the next report to arrive, I held my horn and sent a general warning about that race to all of my people living in this world.
At such times, the horn would show its true might. And as I watched more of the seven stars race members coming near my chariot and filling the entire world till the horizon like a flood, I got the next report.
“Stephen, you have to control your people,” I sighed when I heard that report. I turned to Stephen and added, “your people appeared everywhere in this world! Even in my sealed up pocket world!”
“What do you want me to do?” he instantly complied and I told him to control his people everywhere. For those on this continent, they had to come here. As for others, they should evade any trouble and stand motionless in their places.
After he did what I asked, I went instantly towards my pocket world. I spread the same warning at the two layers there before returning back to the surface.
“Give them the order to sign my contracts,” I started to purchase loyalty contracts in huge batches. Just from this mere visit, I saw tons of such races everywhere.
They were like weed, appearing everywhere and anywhere. He did as I told him and then I started to spread my contracts using my chariot’s insane speed.
The number of such races in this continent alone was in the tens of millions! And those were the ones who were closer to my chariot. Up to now, many more were still coming from far, and I doubted that each continent would carry at least one hundred million of such races.
If such force worked for me diligently then it’d be great. Yet I didn’t know what their abilities were. Still the good news was that they signed the contracts.
It seemed from now on, Stephen would act as their lord, and I’d be Stephen’s boss and lord, which technically would put me as their king as well.
In addition to that, and with the binding force issued by contracts, I could also control them just like how Stephen did.
Stephen didn’t know how the link between him and these people of his race worked. But I got my guess. His ancestors might have used something like the binding force of the system’s contracts to make them listen to his words.
Or perhaps as they were living inside his body and genes, they might have ended up with soul marks linked to his. With such a link, they were forced to listen to any order he’d give.
No matter what the reason was, they listened to his words and that was what mattered.
It took roughly one day to cover up the entire continent and I used the fastest speed of my chariot. Then I started going to other continents and did the same.
They all listened to Stephen’s words on every continent we visited. We first waited for a few hours before enough numbers gathered up there, answering the call of Stephen before I’d spread my contracts over.
This process grew dull with time passing, and it took a long time to cover up the entire continents in both worlds.
After over one month, I finally managed to bind the last group of seven stars race members to me.
