1635 It's Time To Face Karoline
Many tried to fight back, many even tried to take the initiative to run either towards me or away from here. But all failed. Against my cube, and in such a confined place as a continent, no one was able to stand against me or keep their lives or something.
But this continent was really massive like any other continent in the new world. So roaming this place like this took me lots of time, actually an entire month.
During which, and as I expected before, other forces on other continents tried to intervene. They mobilised lots of armies from the deeper continents, the ones away from the reach of my armies, and sent them towards here.
To me this was nothing but adding more wealth in my pockets. I welcomed all, took everyone inside my cube without reservations.
Karoline also moved as I expected. Yet her continents were already separated from here by lots of continents. Not to mention she didn’t have any good relations with these forces, neither with mine.
So anywhere she tried to sneak through, any direction she tried to head towards, she ended up facing hellish strong resistance in the end.
But when I thought she’d drop the idea of coming towards here, and after one month, I still heard news from Lily about how Karoline was trying to make her way towards me at all costs.
Weird!
The battle in this continent finally was over. In fact, I didn’t feel it was a real battle at all. I just roamed around and kept sucking dry the forces everywhere I went.
I didn’t mind such battles, but did mind the time wasted on this. I got pinned for the entire month. And even if Karoline didn’t get any access towards here for now, later on she would.
Besides I got tons of my forces waiting for nothing, doing only stupid guarding missions.
To make things roll faster I should use everyone I got. But that would end up losing too many valuable veteran warriors and also future possible great soldiers.
“I should just jump around and absorb the forces I’ll meet, then give time for the gaps to be filled…” When I thought about it, I realised that most of the time I got lost thanks to my roaming around.
If I could cut the time I spent doing that, then things would be for the better.
To make things roll faster I decided to suck all the races in one spot, then enter my mirror world, jump at one hundred other spots and do the same. Then I’d return to ground zero and move to another continent, while saving the locations I visited into my staff.
When I tried it, I found out how smooth things went much faster. I didn’t take longer than a few hours to get done with one continent, then jumped to another and did the same. After taking a tour around twenty something continents, I returned back to the first places I visited.
There I found the enemies refilling the one hundred spots like I imagined. That made my task much easier. And instead of wasting one whole month in taking down one continent, I took the same to take down twenty-four ones.
During all this, Karoline never stopped trying to get to me. Lily kept updating me about the news from the frontline, giving me a clear view on what things looked like.
The coalition armies of races seemed to get startled by my weird plan and movement. So they started to change their tactics. According to Lily, they started to part ways and clear entire continents, leading Karoline and her forces directly towards me.
If not for Lily and my grand armies standing like immovable mountains in front of her, Karoline would have met me weeks ago.
I had to admit the quick wits of the enemies. They noticed how determined Karoline was to meet with me. And so they decided to let the two of us meet and clash, hopefully some sort of a miracle would happen.
Karoline’s side was strong, but it wasn’t that hard like my side. I alone was enough to scare all of these enemies and drive despair into their hearts.
During the past months, they tried everything to stop me. They used deadly attacks, bombs, special forces, grand defensive formations, and even artefacts… But all failed to stop me.
My cube had an irresistible force that couldn’t be countered by anything. So no matter how they tried, as long as I didn’t aim to directly match them using military might, and kept using my cube, their attempts failed.
After clearing the twenty-four continents, I knew it was time to face Karoline. If I kept going like this, then in the span of a few days I’d end up meeting her. I cleared the continents lying in the centre of the grand coalition army. And that meant only the continents lying at the periphery remained.
Going there and clearing the forces from there would end up clearing a direct path for Karoline and her armies. If that was something I’d not be able to avoid, then it was better to get done from it sooner than later.
[Open path for Karoline and her forces to pass through, don’t stop them anymore] as I decided that, I went directly towards Lily and sent her this message.
Her response was indeed quite expected. She didn’t like it! She hoped for me to get rid of all the enemies first, before working against Karoline.
I also hoped to do so. But the last move from the coalition army made it clear that I’d clash with Karoline much earlier than I planned. So I stressed over Lily to do it, while she’d keep the coalition army under check.
