In fact I came here while being pressured by that jerk's reckless move. The attack the spearhead launched was something that gave me a headache at first.
However when I saw such a domineering show unfolding in front of my eyes, I couldn't help but get excited. It was weird, but such a wrong step provided me with such a spectacular demonstration of my rockets' explosive power.
The flowers of red and orange fire kept raging wildly outside the reach of my shield. I could feel the pressure obviously over my pillar's shield, something that rarely occurred.
The pillar lost the support it got from the dark shadow world. Without such berserk dark energy, this shield of mine was on a far lower point than the one that I saw before.
However it went without saying that my pillar's shield wasn't made out of glass. Such pressure was genuinely true, and it came from the rockets that just hit it.
Seeing this scene made me hold more hope for the future battles. If such deadly weapons were mass produced, and most if not all of my armies got a piece of it, then things would look much brighter for my side.
And this was just the effect of a single weapon. I was sure the core tech of these rockets were also shared with other weapons as well.
Imagining the grand armies of mine using modified tanks, missiles, and even fighters made my smile wide with no sign of closing my mouth for a long time.
The research department… That risky chip I moved from earlier… It finally started showing its worth… At last!
I stayed in the middle of my shield for almost half an hour. The devastation kept coming, reminding me of part of the hellish explosion I once witnessed when I used a dark realm bone before.
It was similar in nature, aggressive and untamed. It was great that it didn't need bones from me, or else I would regret not being able to fully utilise such a deadly weapon.
Once the atmosphere cleared, I didn't rush to leave. First I removed my shield and pillar before going around and inspected the aftermath of this unexpected confrontation.
One word could describe what I saw… Deadly!
The ground itself was dyed red and orange, even many spots had black deep colours penetrating many layers of the ground.
Holes? Trenches? Speak of these as much as you'd love to. The entire terrain changed drastically and this area seemed to reject life growing up again for a long time from now on.
This created a significant problem… If I overused these weapons then wouldn't that end like me burning the enemy and my future prospects together?
However in short moments of thinking I negated such possibility. After all, even if the enemy didn't have any means to deal with such terrifying damage, who said I couldn't?
I got the fountain of life and the water from it got the highest form of healing to such a situation. Of course I needed to check such things first, but my hopes for it were quite high already.
"B… Boss… I'm sorry… I…" when I finished checking with everything, I moved back to where this all started.
As expected, that jerk was looking at me with a pale face and trembling body out of fear. Even if he did me something like a favour coincidently, he was still in the wrong.
"I never expected that you'd make such a foolish move once we finished speaking about your last lousy actions," I slowly shook my head before adding, "from now on, your army will act as the firefighters in the invasion. You'll keep jumping between worlds and provide assistance whenever needed."
"Thanks boss…" his face beamed with a relaxed expression, making me laugh inwardly. This jerk didn't get the hidden meaning in my words, so I had to tell him directly about his poor fate.
"Don't celebrate it too soon… unlike everyone else, you'll be left behind in terms of growing your forces and having a territory to rule over."
"This…"
"Is it punishment…" I slowly said, and my tone and face told him enough about my hidden threats.
I also got another reason for this. From all the generals I had, this little dude here was on a whole new level than anyone else.
He had the ability to restrain the enemies. Even if Hescos suits countered his effects to some extent, it was still working over monsters and other races.
And who knew, even zombies might get affected from it as well.
"Go now, and stop making trouble," I waved my arm and put a displeased and impatient expression over my face.
This time I got lucky that he aimed at a place stored within my staff. But if he did it at another location, I'd just stay behind helplessly while watching the devastation brought over by the rockets.
After sending him away, I took a wide tour around. First I checked over the status of the army mobility and still the zombie generals and leaders didn't show themselves up yet.
So I went to the research department at the pocket world and gave lots of praise to them. It was their merit and they had to know the value of what they did.
They were going in the right direction and my words emphasised over this point. I hoped for them to continue developing further. If such results came out after a few years of testing and experimenting, what would be the case if I gave them decades?
Then I went to the lake directly nearby, or that grand sea. After filling a few empty high grade liquor with the fountain of life waters, I returned back to the dead zone and started to confirm my earlier guesses.
"It's miraculous indeed…" signs of life returning back to the dead land appeared all over the areas I used the water upon.
The moment the drops of water landed, the spots it touched started to change colour. Instead of the blackness here, the land started to grow green and even thick bushes of grass and plants shot out in no time.
The effect started to expand slowly, and with it I noticed that new land was formed. This was the other effect of these waters, helping a grain of sand turning into a vast land.
But with the destruction effect still effective, such an effect was slightly hindered and didn't show the same magical effects as before.
Yet it was acceptable.
I sprayed many drops of water to cleanse the damage here. After all, this was a very close area from the grand settlements in this region. Losing such a place and turning it into such a dead zone wasn't going to work at all.
[Make those who are going to stand in defence in the kingdom ready to move out] After finishing all this, I went back towards the location of the gathering near the pocket world while sending this message over to Lily.
[Moving out already?]
[Isac is waiting on the other side with her men] I sent, [Also prepare those immigrants. We need to start working on the other side as well]
[I see… So you are going there for a while, right?]
[I will be away for a few days, maybe a week or so… I need the zombie leaders and generals to wait for me when I return]
[I'll arrange that. By the way, I heard the spearhead complaining about what you did to him]
[That jerk! Don't mention his name for me for now!]
It seemed that the bastard ran around and complained about what I ordered for him. Of course this was something expected from such a crybaby.
[Tsk! I heard he tried to play with the toys you gave to us. It's not totally his mistake as giving fire to a kid will end up burning the house]
I rolled my eyes. Since when you were the spokeswoman for that jerk? [But the fire didn't break out and I saved the house!]
[I'm saying that such curiosity isn't bad]
[Yet he will end up doing what I ordered him to do]
[Hahahaha! I knew it! You were planning for him to stay behind and torture him for that. That's more like you]
[I'm not that tyrant]
[But you always want to squeeze all of the juice out of us, hahahaha!]
[Didn't you like me squeezing your juice before? I recall you moaning and growing soft in my arms before]
[Stop joking! If you won't pursue it, don't ever bring such matter up]
[Fine, fine, just let's get all this done. Who knows, when we are done and become victorious, I'll have the energy to squeeze you again]
With a short laugh I closed the chat with her. I was just teasing her around and yet she seemed to still linger about this matter.
Sigh! If not for that damn curse this big brother here had, I'd have already turned myself into a professional squeezer… Tsk!
I opened the portal to Earth and waited for a few minutes before the early seas of forces and immigrants appeared from far.
Cool, things were going smoothly as I expected. I left the portal open and opened more portals to facilitate such a huge move.
Then I went all the way to Earth to supervise and oversee the deployment of forces and people in my territory.
