But now? They were pretty f*cking useless! And that explained why they started to act from working for their own benefits, to serving others like dogs.
"That makes you a baby in my eyes!"
However, realising all this changed the fate of that star weapon in my eyes.
This place… This new world was going to fall into my hands. But controlling it wouldn't be that easy compared with conquering the main enemies.
I could already see lots of hidden resistance pockets of power, folks remaining from the once mighty armies. They would try their best to create chaos and attack my lands.
Their presence was inevitable actually, but their numbers were the thing that troubled me. And with this scary weapon, I could land punishment over any of these, no matter where they were.
The star weapon wasn't any threatening to me right now. The most it could do was to peel off a few layers of my shields, which would be considered something amazing for any other weapon but this one.
Right now I shifted my full attention towards the outside, calling my fallen gods attacking the star weapon back, and added them in the mission to hunt down the fallen angels.
At some point, the star weapon stopped attacking, and yet I kept my shields releasing shockwaves by using bones.
The fallen angels might seem scary thanks to their authority and power, but they were just like any race in the universe. In fact, they weren't even in the top ten list of races in the universe.
I got nothing to worry about, not even a scary race that could come after me later on and cause me problems.
But that made me realise something.
"If my world was just a typical case for other worlds, then does that mean there are other races here acting like guides?"
This was a simple question, yet it opened a large door in front of my eyes. The enemy list just grew a bit bigger by now.
"One enemy at a time," I kept infusing my shields with bone energy, enough to release a weak wave of attack. At the same time, I started to enjoy this hunting game of the fallen angels.
But like normal, any fun was destined to come to an end. After the disappearance of the red rays, the fallen angels struggled to escape from this place, with no avail.
As they started to run away, I simply increased the magnitude of my bone energy to a certain limit, enough to keep them entrapped inside my shockwave range.
I thought they'd struggle, fight back, do anything, but in the end they didn't. They just tried to keep themselves safe inside their bubbles, ending up getting killed by my fallen gods.
"I once heard that any guide must come from a race who ruled over a world in the apocalypse… But this… You are damn weaker than humans!"
I looked around, and the entire world was now void of any angels. What remained was the normal enemies, the fiends and their forces.
If the fallen angels managed to do anything here, then they managed to stall for time, delaying my attack over the enemies for almost one hour.
During this, the enemy seemed to gather up lots of giants. They were the one eyed giants, but with full body gears and lots of sparkling lights coming from their one eye.
"You want to take down my shields using… Cyclops?" I raised one eyebrow, and the next moment I released not my Kings, not my soulers, not my warriors, but my fallen gods, "kill them!"
The giant one eyed dudes really looked different and slightly dangerous. So I'd not risk anything at this point, enough with time wasting.
So I let my fallen gods test these folks, before releasing all the Kings and warriors to kill the enemies outside the shields.
I watched how the newly arrived giants fell under the brutal attacks of my fallen gods. But soon enough I noticed that many of these giant cyclopes were able to resist many hits.
I looked closer, even used my Hawk Eye skill, and there I found out what happened.
"The Exomachines… They are using Exomachines like giant shields… That's cheating!"
I didn't expect that to be honest. The Exomachines have the ability to stand against the deadly attacks of my shields, the deadly waves of my explosive bones' fire… And so it was expected for them to stop the attacks of my fallen gods.
"Last time I checked, they can survive against my soulers for a bit of time… But I haven't tested my Kings yet…"
I saw a large number of those giant cyclops drawing closer to my shields while not a single damage was brought over to them.
I felt the urge to go out there and stop them myself. The enemy wouldn't send them like this without a reason. They were able to take down my shields, I could feel it.
But going out there at this moment wasn't a good thing actually. The enemy might succeed and my Kings might not be able to stop all of them. That was the worst case scenario. And so if that happened, I shouldn't be busy fighting, but ready to redeploy more shields if needed.
Besides, I was curious to see how these one eyed giants were going to take down my shields.
The Kings were a bit stronger than the soulers. Even comparing them against the geared Soulers was also in their favour.
But what I thought before happened. The Kings passed through the cyclopes, without taking them down.
The giants were already enough to cause my soulers and King's problems. And now they have the Exomachines as well.
The number of Kings attacking those giants was simply too much, too much for the cyclopes to stop all the Kings coming at them.
But they managed to stop enough, enough to let them reach my shields.
"Let me see what you can do," I was curious and waited for the giant cyclops to act.
And then something weird happened.
I always thought the giant cyclops to be the ones to take my shields down. I thought about their eyes, flashing with dangerous light, or their strong physique and strength.
But what really happened was for the Exomachines to act. They were the ones I thought they were there just to deliver the cyclopes to the shields. But that wasn't true.
The cyclopes were the one delivering the Exomachines towards the shields.
Under my watchful eyes, I saw the giants shrink in size, acting as if they were melting or getting absorbed by the Exomachines.
"Interesting…" I kept waiting inside, watching all this, watching as if I was watching an interesting movie or something.
*Boom!*
And like my bones, these Exomachines absorbed the giant cyclops carrying them, and then started to brightly shine, seemingly on the verge of exploding.
But against what I expected, the Exomachines just threw themselves on the shields, released their bright energy and light into my shields, cracking them, and seemingly this close from taking them down.
"As if I'm going to let you do it," I harrumphed, took back all the Kings and forces outside, before releasing the shockwave from my shields.
The shields were indeed on the verge of getting crushed, and the weird thing was that this didn't just affect the outermost layers of my shields like usual, but all the layers forming my shields.
The cracks spreading were taking all the layers and expanding to crush the shields into tiny pieces.
And just when the enemy was this close from doing it, I released my counter attack.
To take down my shields, it meant the enemy was using a scary amount of energy. I couldn't tell what these Exomachines did, or how the cyclopes gave such immense energy to them. And that wouldn't matter anymore.
The shockwave came from the amount of damage stored inside my shields. And just as the shields got on the brink of destruction, then it was expected for the shockwave to be quite scary.
And it was.
"Oops… I ended up stalling myself inside!"
The moment I released the shockwave attack, the entire world turned all bright and the world outside vanished from my eyes.
I didn't want to get strangled in here, and yet the enemy managed to force my hands and made me release such a deadly attack.
I couldn't control this attack, the same way I couldn't control my fire. And so it was expected for me to stay inside and not move.
Joking! That was what the enemies wanted me to do, dreamt about, but I wouldn't do it.
I got a map, and I could simply travel to anywhere on this map using my portals.
So if the enemy thought they'd strangle me here, they were mistaken. I learnt from this battle, and got to know how the enemy planned to fight me back.
