Chapter 315: 315

Ibro then started to use his spells one after the other. The system started to absorb the demon energy while Ibro decided to use the Sword Whirlpool Strike. As usual, swords were very effective in delivering a message. 

Ibro killed the whole demon waves with a single attack from his swords. After he killed them, he looked to Erond who was flying beside him and said:

"If you want to receive my help, and let me visit your city to kill all the monsters, then send someone via teleportation portal to Gortan City. 

link the two portals together and ask them about an NPC called Gorsag. If you don't want to receive my help, then… it's your choice… it's your life, so choose freely… choose well."

Ibro then pointed to Erond to stop recording.

"I will post these videos now. I hope people can respond to your majesty call."

Ibro smiled as he requested from Maya to release Gorsag. Ibro briefed the plan to him, and then he continued to attack the demon armies with Maya. 

He first used his death summon curse multiple times to gain more than 400 million skeletons and 300 death kings. Ibro then began to absorb energy madly as he gathered all the demon seeds in the region. 

Their numbers were huge, but he wasn't worried. He was like a god to them… one strike killed them all. Ibro then moved towards the other 6 cities which had similar circumstances like the previous two. 

He killed massive numbers of demons there and summoned a great number of skeletons and death kings. Ibro wasn't content with all of this. He wasn't interested in these small fishes. His eyes were focused on the big whale. 

He waited for it to take the bait. Ibro didn't wait long. As he was recuperating after his 50th battle in a row, Gorsag sent a messenger to him. The whale had taken the bait.

"My king, lord Gorsag sent me a report. Over 100 cities have replied to your majesty call and they are waiting for your aid."

Ibro smiled widely. Finally, the time for his first board game move had come. Maya looked in surprise towards him as she exclaimed in a soft voice like a whisper:

"We didn't yet help all our cities, how can you move to help others?"

Ibro looked at her then he sighed. Cultivators were straight forward persons, especially sword cultivators. Ibro just passed his fingers into her hair, as he liked this move a lot, then he replied:

"It's not a direct confrontation; it's a battle between minds. If we moved with logic, I can assure you we will lose. Follow me and you will learn."

Maya muttered with a very low voice complaining from his treatment to her as if she was a kitty, she was a ferocious tiger. She wasn't meant to live in palaces; she always lived on the battlefield. 

She followed him while they passed through the teleportation portal as they reached Gortan city. This city had changed a lot since the last time they visited it. 

It wasn't this crowded like now. Once Ibro appeared, Gorsag knelt in front of him. This move had attracted all the current players' attention.

"Ah, here comes the one who caused all of this doom. you came from outside the world and brought with you these monsters. It's your fault, it's y…"

These were the last words of a player who attacked Ibro once Gorsag knelt in greeting. The first to move was Ibro, who used his confused divine ability to make this player petrify. 

Ibro then took out a beta stone. Maya did the rest as she moved the stone towards that player's mouth. Once he ate it, he disappeared like magic from the place. 

The delegations of all cities had witnessed this in fear, surprise, and hesitation. Those who came here in a try to instigate trouble decided to wait till the fate of this player became apparent. 

Their wait didn't last long, as the player reappeared again with a shocked expression. Ibro didn't hesitate to stimulate his alpha stone inside his dantian. 

Immediately, that player's beta stone exploded taking with it the life of that player. Once killed, Ibro looked towards all present while saying in threat:

"As these monsters can kill your real selves, I can too. Don't test my patience. If you don't want my help, then don't bother wasting my time."

Ibro then turned to leave. Before he even took one step towards the teleportation portal, a group of players spoke asking him to wait.

"What do you want to say?"

Ibro looked with a lack of interest in these players. They had seen his power on the videos at forums. 

Although many players started to attack him, describing him as the cause of this calamity, others saw him as a beacon of hope. 

What made them hesitate was the long post some players wrote together declaring their doubt towards the authenticity of videos. But now, they saw a glimpse of his power.

"We… We want to ask for your help. Our cities are raided by huge flocks of monsters. We need your power to stop them."

Ibro replied coldly:

"Although I feel sympathy for all of you, I don't do things for charity."

The player replied at once:

"We can provide you with all the riches you want. If you want to build your kingdom here, we will help you."

"I don't ask for much, only your followers of players must take these stones first, and then I will move to aide you."

The player looked in hesitation towards this stone. This player was, in reality, the head of one of the strongest families. He wanted to keep his life, especially after he confirmed the claims of Ibro towards these monsters. He then asked in doubt:

"Isn't this the stone that caused this player's death?"

Ibro shook his hand carrying the stones as he said:

"No, you are mistaken here. This stone is like a brand of my empire. Anyone with this brand can live peacefully under my rule, except on one condition. 

If any of my citizens tried to betray me, destroy what I built, or did something unacceptable, then I could squeeze his soul and send him to the grave. The stone didn't kill the player, I did."

The player looked in fear towards Ibro as he muttered in disbelief:

"You are like the monsters, you want to control us."

"No, you are also mistaken here; I'm not trying to kill you like these monsters. The choice is simple, either you accept my gesture and live, or you surrender to these monsters and die."

Ibro then looked towards Gorsag as he said with obvious discontent:

"Here, there are enough stones in it. when any player comes here again asking for help, make sure he and all his city players and NPCs have taken this stone first, then call me."

Ibro moved seriously towards the portal again intending to go to another city.

"Hold on, we want to submit to you now."
