[Come back to the portal location right now!] I sent this message over to that jerk, [And arrange things behind, you are going to leave this world]
[At last! I thought I was going to die here!] he seemed pretty much stressed over more than I expected, [But why? Did you meet up with Hescos and need my help?]
Help my ass! That jerk was still thinking high of himself! He didn't even doubt his bad luck or his bad influence at any place he'd be at!
If not for giving out my word to him before, I'd never think about bringing such a bad luck magnet with us.
[It's the golden quest, it's about to start in one day]
[Damn! Wait for me! Don't go without me!] he freaked out the moment he learnt about this. And I couldn't help but inwardly sigh.
As I didn't know where he was in the middle of this forsaken world, I started to examine the entire place around.
Brutal signs of deadly battles were everywhere. The ground that was filled with sand was showing deep gaps where signs of mighty explosions existed.
At the same time, dead bodies were filling the entire world all around!
The jumper and his forces managed to survive the first impact against the zombies and started to push through. They got used to the sneaky nature of these zombies, and the places they cleaned were secured by Loran's men.
I didn't know what scale of expansion they reached, but even after the passage of over one month, they didn't find a single working portal here.
That meant the entire place was void of a functional city or town. It was like a world without life, a world filled with zombies, a similar occasion to the world filled with monsters, the dark realm monsters.
As he wasn't here yet, and there were tons of dead zombies all over the place, I didn't feel any shyness and started to gather more bones.
Something told me these bones were going to be handy in some way out there in that golden quest.
As expected, that jerk took his time to come. After ten whole hours, he finally showed up.
During that time, I moved to far distances as I kept gathering up my bones. I didn't feel any stress from his delay, after all I still had lots of hours left.
And I left gathering up the other elites of mine to Lily, and she was a capable person.
[I'm here, where are you?]
[Coming over] I didn't hurry to come back using my staff as I wanted something else from him to do here before leaving his world, [Bring all the orbs collected so far. We are going to take them back]
[This… The people you sent to do this are already far away! How do you think I can do it?]
[Just make them move them over to here] I paused before adding, [I'm going to open a portal back home. They can keep moving the orbs they gathered so far to Earth world]
I was sure they'd arrive just before going to that golden quest. I planned to bind and activate all these orbs, letting my people back there put them to use when needed.
I wanted to create one more defensive zone inside my kingdom just in case things went south. I planned to speak with Lily and Isac about that, putting up a ready to use plan if the frontline collapsed for any reason.
So having more orbs as a reserve was a good thing. Not to mention I planned to store enough and bring them with me to the golden quest.
If the quest asked me to defend some place, or attack another, then these orbs would be quite useful.
I planned to take one thousand orbs with me, linked already and activated, ready to be deployed.
It took roughly one hour to return back to the portal region. And there I used another ticket to open a portal back to Earth.
It didn't hurt nor worry me this time as I got enough tickets to invade almost double the number of worlds I had in this apocalyptic trial.
"It's already here, hahaha! At last I'm going to meet him, hahaha!"
During all this time, the jumper kept laughing like crazy and saying similar words. I first tried to speak and chat with him, but soon enough I decided to keep my silence and let him act as crazy as he wanted.
I knew how this matter was sensitive to him. His entire cursed life was going to an end by meeting up with that dude from the angels, and trying to save him.
I didn't yet know how he'd be able to meet up with him, nor did I know if I was going to meet any angels at all or not.
But the words the old man once told me before sending me here were clear… The golden quests must have a relation somehow with the angels and their hidden closed circuit world.
From the intel I learnt so far, I knew they were living inside a closed time loop world. Would I be sent there to do something or what?
I didn't even know what made them enter such a hellish life. All I knew was that they were met with an enemy, an agent from the other universe.
But this news might be false or not totally true. The ones who might have targeted them would be from that mysterious faction who was pulling strings from behind the curtains.
No matter who did that to them, I had no guarantee that I'd be able to access their world, nor would I be able to save them if I went there.
Who knew what their current situation was. From what I learnt, they selected the moment of their destruction and sealed their life in a closed time loop.
Not to mention the other threat that was in the form of the jumper's god. That jerk had a twisted minded god supporting him and wanting to see him suffer.
