Chapter 386: 386
The system didn't comment and Ibro didn't care by this attitude, he knew his system was angry but that didn't matter.
What mattered now was to rapidly take control of this village and use it as a fixed point where his armies would spread from.
Ibro then threw all of his 10 runes to the air, and then he used the blunt side of his two swords to strike them far away in different directions around him.
It didn't take minutes for these runes to be detonated by his system control. The familiar silence prevailed followed by the bright blinding light, which did not affect at all towards Ibro, who said:
'Start absorbing the remnant gates now.'
It didn't take an hour for his system to eliminate all the gates from there. Ibro didn't stop and used his strikes one time after the other.
He directed his strikes to clear all the demons that stood between his armies and the village. He also killed nearly most of the demons around the village walls.
Once the effects of his runes finished after two hours, he had already controlled the whole village and its parameters. The rest was left in the hands of his armies as he went deep inside this village.
This village was a game based village, which meant the control of it lied in its lord's manor. Ibro's target was there, as he spotted this manor early on from the beginning of this battle.
This village wasn't that large, so he reached the worn-out lord's manor in minutes. That building was special, as it was the only two stories building in the whole village, and it was also in its center.
What made Ibro confirm his guess was the presence of some strangely shaped demons guarding this building. This was the only guarded building in the whole village, so it had to be the manor he was looking for.
The number of these demons wasn't high, as they didn't exceed 1000, but Ibro was sure they were elites, or else his enemy would never allow them to stand there alone guarding this critical place.
Ibro also put a possibility of a teleportation ambush there, so he said to his system:
'Use the seal function here, I need to disturb any teleportation trap in this village.'
'It's activated.'
A rippling wave emerged from Ibro as its center and went to cover a wide distance away from the village. The expression of these demons changed at once, which made Ibro feel more at ease.
It seemed his enemy didn't know he had already turned that item effect into his function that he could use anytime anywhere. That single small detail made a huge difference here.
Ibro was grateful that his system succeeded in turning this item into his function, as this function would start to act as his life savior and plan destroyer.
'I don't have time to play with these weaklings, send them into one of my subsidiary worlds. Let them act as a training bag for my boys.'
'…'
Moving 1000 demons in one go was an easy task for his system, so in a moment these demons disappeared from Ibro's front. Ibro then entered with complete ease into the building.
The manor was really simple from inside, with nearly no furniture at all. Ibro found a hanging orb in the middle of this house, which was like a big ball made of glass.
He neared it as he placed his hands over the orb. The sound of his system came in his mind:
'You have touched a technology-based product. As you aren't part of this universe, you don't have the right to own it in its current condition.
You either find someone from this universe to own this product, or you let me change it for you.'
Ibro's curiosity was piqued at once, as he asked:
'What will happen if you change this ball?'
'I will use PSR, Soul Sea, or ultimatum energy to modify this product and make it fall under your control. But doing so would eliminate the link between this product and the technology energy here.'
The system went silent for a few moments which was broken by Ibro's question out of his curiosity:
'Is this a bad thing or a good thing?'
'It's a good thing indeed, as you will have a village-like your own back at the Zeraxos game. The issue here is related to the current technology in this universe.
Your village will be considered an alien presence here, so I can't guarantee the reaction of this technology against you and the village.'
Ibro snorted as he muttered:
'What are you afraid of? The demons are filling this universe and are working hard to destroy it.
If this technology had any dignity, it should have retaliated against those invaders. Go on and transform this village to be under my control.'
'Fine, then you have to choose, will your village sprout technology-based villagers or cultivation based villagers? These are the two forms of energy that you learned so far, so you can establish your village based on one of them.'
Ibro was excited as he replied without any hesitation:
'Make it sprout cultivators. I need cultivators more than anything else.'
Ibro then felt energetic as this long dream of his was finally about to happen. He looked outside the manor towards the whole world as he muttered:
'I will seize every single village in this world and turn them all into my cultivators' wombs.'
Ibro then waited patiently counting seconds as he wanted to assess the result of this transformation.
'I have finished, and I have good news and bad news, what do you want to know first?'
Ibro was surprised by this, so he chose:
'Give me the bad news first; I want to know what possibly could go wrong with my village.'
'It's not related to your village, directly; it's related to you, actually. There is an issue with the heart of this technology.
Its soul is in deep slumber, or it might be killed, but what I'm sure about is the presence of something else there controlling everything here in this universe.'
Ibro's attention was piqued at once, as he asked seriously:
'Tell me everything you know.'
