“Hey, Hey, Hey, did you hear? The City Lord actually took down Skyfire City!”
“Hiss, really? Skyfire City is a medium level city! And our Sky City is just a small city.”
“Right, right, right. I remember that Skyfire City has three subsidiary small cities and more than 30,000 soldiers. Did the City Lord really take it down?”
“Oh my God, this is really an incredible feat!”
“A miracle! It’s definitely a miracle!”
“Heaven bless our Sky City!”
Everyone in Sky City was shocked by this news.
They knew about the existence of Sky City, which was near to their city.
However, they had never dared to imagine that the Skyfire City, which was high and mighty in their eyes, was actually taken down by their own city.
This was simply unbelievable. After all, their city only had 3,000 soldiers!
However, when the army returned victorious and brought back groups of captives and various spoils of war, the residents believed that they had really won.
Instantly, Sky City was shaken with joy!
This was the biggest victory since Sky City was founded.
One had to know that Sky City’s best battle record in history was only taking down one city.
However, the captive city was soon taken by others.
They had never thought that Sky City would be able to take down Skyfire City, which was one of the three largest forces around.
“Thank you for your hard work.”.
Jerry looked at Athena and Heracles in front of him and said.
Excitedly, they knelt down on one knee.
“We have fulfilled the mission and present the four city seals to you, my Lord!” Athena said respectfully. Then, she raised a tray with both of her hands. There were four seals on it!
The city seals!
They had a magical power. It was said that as long as one held the seal in their hands, they could command the entire city. It was the symbol of the city lord.
It was divine!
It was better than the so-called heirlooms, at least for ordinary people.
Unless one was really stupid to the point of no return, otherwise, with the seal in their hands, they would be the master of the entire city!
This convinced Jerry even more that the Empire Era was extraordinary.
Moreover, the Eternal Roster was activated after he entered the Empire Era. It showed how magical this place was.
“Thank you for your hard work. After this battle, I will present your achievements in front of the army!”
Jerry said in a grave voice.
The two of them did not care. As long as they could serve the lord, they did not care about the rewards.
Compared to gold and silver, they preferred the feeling of doing battles all over the world.
“Metis, I’ll leave these four new cities to you. Select some officials and settle the people down as soon as possible.
“Only after these cities are stable can I continue to wage war and obtain more territory. I’ll try to establish a kingdom as soon as possible,” Jerry said.
Metis bowed.
“Don’t worry, my Lord. With the seals in hand, we’ll only need a month to stabilize these territories.
“But my lord, after Skyfire City in our hands, the other two major forces will get wary.
“So my lord should expand the military force as soon as possible. Only then will we be able to resist the attacks from the two major forces.”
“Mm, you’re right.”
Jerry nodded. As expected of the goddess of wisdom, she could easily see through the situation of the forces around Skyfire City.
Within a radius of a million miles, Skyfire City and the other two major forces had kept a subtle balance in this area.
It was also why there were no kingdoms around here.
After all, if one force wanted to build a kingdom, it would need to take down the other two major forces.
With the three forces restraining one another, no kingdoms could emerge after so many years.
However, the balance was about to be broken. Once Jerry stabilized his territory and expanded his troops, it would be time to attack the two major forces.
The combined number of cities of the two major forces was more than ten!
After Jerry defeated them, he’d have more than 12 cities, which would mean that he could establish his own kingdom.
It would not take too long, a month at most. This was because Jerry did not need to train his army. He only needed to recruit enough soldiers and made them fuse with the heroic souls of the Byzantine cavalry.
“Alright, let’s call it a day. I’m a little tired.”
Jerry raised his hand and said,
“You guys had a long day. You must be tired.
“So, go back and have a good meal and have a good rest.
“Athena, have a good chat with your mother and catch up with her”
“And Hercules, get to know Plutus. I don’t know if you met him before or not.
“In short, have a good meal of meat and wine and have a good rest.
“That way, you will have the strength to attack other cities with me tomorrow,” Jerry shrugged and said indifferently.
“Yes, my Lord!”
The gods bowed to Jerry and then left.
In the late night of the Empire Era, Jerry fell into a deep sleep. In fact, he had gone offline.
The scene changed. Jerry’s home on Earth.
Jerry opened his eyes. The Sun had already risen. It was night in the other world, but it was daytime on Earth.
Today was the day that Jerry went to the university for registration.
The university wasn’t far from his home.
But he’d better set out early.
All of this was no different from his previous life. In fact, in the Empire Era, other than the addition of a virtual reality game that felt extremely realistic, it did not have much of an impact on this world.
Other than the huge shock and panic when he first came, he seemed to have gotten used to his new life.
But today, after he reported to the university, Jerry was shocked by a piece of news.
“Ancient Social Management?”
“Ancient Military Science?”
“Ancient Economics?”
“F*ck, what the hell is going on?”
Jerry was stunned. It was only after he had arrived at the university that he was informed that from this year onwards, all the universities had added subjects related to ancient times.
It was not just the United States. It was the same in other countries as well. All of the universities had added such subjects.
“It’s weird! Something must have happened.”
Jerry knew the schools wouldn’t have done this for no reason. These courses didn’t seem useful in this society. The only course useful was archaeology, which was a handy when one studied ancient languages.
The reason for the sudden global consensus to add these courses could only come from the Empire Era.
