Chapter 121
Chapter 121
Ibro felt weird. That player was from a world much earlier than his world. Was Sefiera that old? She told him that this was one of her old friends. Was he her BF? He didn't think much as he said:
"I agree."
"Player Ibro agreed on the trade request. Player Ibro has got one scroll from player Kreedol.
You have gained a free of charge scroll. This scroll is stored at your Inventory. Player can view the scroll now."
Ibro opened his Inventory at once; he took out that scroll and observed it:
"Food consumption control scroll: God rank scroll. It can be used once.
It changes the food consumption for one territory for ten days. The altered food consumption will be 1% only of the current food consumption. This scroll is immune to any external interference."
Ibro looked at this scroll while his hands were shaking. This scroll was like a huge trump card to him. He was in a desperate need for such a scroll.
It gave him 10 additional days with no fear of his food to end. This was a really godlike effect. Ibro was about to leave the market when he got a new notification:
"Player Kreedol sent you a voice message. Do you want to accept it?"
Ibro felt weird. Was there a function in the market that enabled players to exchange messages between them even if they were in different realms? He said immediately:
"I accept."
"Player Ibro accepted the message. As regards to your low-level market, you can't reply to this message for now. Message will be displayed now."
Suddenly a harsh tone voice with some weird accent appeared in Ibro's ears saying:
"Hi, player Ibro. My name is Kreedol. I'm Sefiera's friend.
She told me in brief about your current situation. I feel sympathy for you. This scroll is the best I could find in this short notice. I hope it will become helpful to you.
I want to tell you one piece of advice: Stay away from Sefiera. You know nothing about her or about how miserable the life she lived. She has been connected to you in this shitty game, so try not to let her down.
When the time comes in the future and you can break the bond between the both of you, break it. Don't let her stay beside you any longer. You are marked by that evil man.
You are doomed, my friend. Don't destroy my dear friend Sefiera with you. I hope you can do the right thing for Sefiera. I have added you to my friends' list.
This is a function you will get in the future in the market when you upgrade it. I hope I can talk to you soon. Be good with Sefiera. That is a warning to you."
Ibro felt mixed feelings towards Kreedol. He felt his deep feelings for Sefiera. He also knew that she had experienced very bad misfortunes in her life.
He thought about that player's words and about his other self words. He tended to follow his own self advice. He wouldn't cause any harm to himself, right?
He felt sympathy and appreciation towards Kreedol, but Sefiera was very important to him and he didn't intend to let her go. He looked at the scroll in his hands.
His other self was right, Sefiera was really very important to him. Ibro moved towards his manor. He noticed the bustling streets of his village. There were already a huge number of people in this village.
He didn't walk once in his own village to check its development. After he finished all of this he had to begin regular tours in the streets of the village. He had no time for that right now.
He reached his own manor and entered it. He found the three at the same place as he left them. They were discussing some deep details when he entered the room.
Once he appeared they all stopped their discussions.
"Have you slept well, my lord?"
"Yes, thanks for your concern Mony. Now I have something important to tell you."
He then put the scroll of the only table in the corner of the room. They looked in question toward it but he didn't explain anything. He just gestured with his head towards it.
Mamor was the first to pick it up. Once he investigated its effect he froze in his place for a few seconds. The next was Mony whose reaction was the same as Mamor.
Hoden was the last one to pick it. He exchanged his eyes between the scroll and Ibro then he asked:
"May I know from where did my lord get this scroll?"
Ibro smiled and then answered mysteriously:
"It's not important who gave it to me. The most important is the effect of this scroll. With this scroll, we don't need to be in such tremendous pressure like before."
"I totally agree with you, my lord. It's just I feel the time of this scroll appearance is a bit suspicious."
"Don't worry, this scroll came from someone I really trust."
Ibro knew that Hoden's point made sense. This scroll came from Sefiera's friend. He trusted Sefiera and so he trusted that friend.
Also if this scroll had some problems then he would use the old strategy. Although deep inside him he hoped that this scroll would have no problems, but he must be cautious. He then asked:
"What is the status of our preparations?"
"We have started building the pyramid already. We just need one more day to finish it."
Ibro looked at Mony and asked:
"What about the defensive buildings I gave to you?"
"I have already established these in the outer parameters of the village. I have consulted with Mr. Hoden and Mr. Mamor. I have put them in the places they decided."
Ibro nodded his head in admiration then he looked towards Hoden and Mamor and asked:
"What about the plan of the next war?"
"We have scouted the underground forts and the surface strongholds. We have a lot of detailed info about the next war. Outside the village, we managed to spot 15 monster strongholds.
5 lied in the mountains and 10 are castles in the open. In the underground world, we managed to determine 35 areas that surround us. These areas don't include 32 vacant areas that created that buffer zone."
Ibro felt doubt about the number of surface strongholds. There were exactly 10 easy to attack castles. He smelled a trap in these castles so he warned:
"These 10 surface castles are traps. When you attack them you need to be extremely careful. The previous plan applied here.
We need to finish this war as soon as possible as the upgrade challenge will be more difficult than this war."
Mamor said in a serious tone:
"We also suspected these 10 castles as you did my lord. I will be responsible for the surface battles. I will deal with these castles with caution."
Ibro then felt that everything was settled. He ordered:
"Let's start this final war, gentlemen. I hope we celebrate victory the next time we meet."
He then moved outside the manor with the company of Mamor. Hoden would stay at the village to supervise the final preparations for the upgrade quest. Mony would stay with him to help him.
When Ibro moved Mamor in the village streets, he felt proud. This lively village was his own village. When he reached the wooden wall he felt surprised.
The village scope had enlarged to exceed the original boundary of the village. He exited the walls to find himself in wider streets with more pedestrians.
He noticed another huge wall with large towers in the distance. He knew that these were the walls and other defensive buildings that he gave to Mony before.
While he walked in the streets, he noticed the presence of some defensive towers scattered in an organized manner inside this zone. He understood the planning of Hoden and Mamor.
They predicted the toughness of this upgrade quest. They prepared for even the incident of a village being breached by the enemy. This was a necessary step to guard against the upcoming war.
It took him nearly half an hour till he exited the big gate of his village. He stopped outside to marvel at the hugeness of his village.
This was just a beginner village but it reached the scope of an advanced village. He noticed the presence of a large number of tents with large numbers of soldiers that were busy in their training. This war camp lay near one side of this circular wall.
He noticed two people who were running towards him. He recognized the two when they neared him. They were Megedy and Aras.
"Welcome my lord. Will you go for an expedition?"
