Chapter 358: 358

Ibro stood in the air watching the three players flying towards him. These players' levels were very high, at the least they were higher than 250 level of Bilarn. 

Ibro stood without any worry as his strength was higher than any of them. Once they neared him, Bilarn moved to cut their path as he said:

"You need to stop there when you speak with my master."

Ibro didn't approve of this move of Bilarn, but he didn't voice out his objection. He needed to know the actual stand of these players, were they his allies or his enemies. 

Ibro watched the reaction of those three players, who looked in disguise towards Bilarn. It seemed that NPCs here had lost their place a long time ago, so no player would be bothered by any NPC.

"You should select your allies better than that."

One of the three players said these words arrogantly to Ibro, who didn't reply as he silently watched this player. The two beside him said one by one:

"We thought you were an intelligent player, but it seems you are only strong with no brain."

"What a shame, strong player like you should stick with us, not with those retarded NPCs. Are you an idiot?"

Ibro sighed; these players lived arrogantly until they thought the whole world was in their grasp.

'Do you want me to teach them a lesson?'

Maya said this to Ibro via divine sense, but Ibro replied:

'No, I want you to send stones directly into their mouths.'

Ibro then said to his system:

'Use the confusion divine ability now on all of them.'

'Do you want me to paralyze these three? They are worth it.'

'No, I want you to paralyze all the players who came here, not only these three.'

'…'

Ibro then took out a suitable amount of his beta stones. Once the system paralyzed them, he threw the stones in the air.

'Send these to all the players.'

'…'

Maya was speechless, she thought Ibro was going to punish only the three players, but he planned to punish all. She didn't delay, as she used her technique to send the stones into each player's mouth. 

This act was done in front of all players in the far distance who were broadcasting everything on the forums. Once the players took the stones, they disappeared. 

Ibro stood patiently waiting for the players to reappear again. in minutes, over 1000 players appeared again with shocking expressions over their faces. Ibro then said with firm tone and loud voice:

"Now, it's time for you to hear me out, I'm Ibro, your new master. I don't tolerate any misbehavior towards myself, but I will forgive all of you for now. If you repeat your insults, I will kill all of you."

Ibro was about to ask Bilarn to take care of those players, but one of the three-spoke first with rudeness:

"You bastard, you think w…"

Ibro didn't wait for him to continue his words as he controlled his alpha stone and destroyed that player beta stone. The player's expression was scary as he fell from the sky to hit the ground hard. 

The other two froze as they were about to state their opposition to Ibro. Ibro sighed as he looked to the other two and the rest of players far in the distance as he said:

"Obey me and live, disobey me, and die. This is a real death, not just losing one level. Choose wisely as I have no patience for people like you."

Ibro didn't wait for their reply as he looked to Bilarn as he ordered:

"Assign someone from your men to deal with them. All their assets are now mine, so gather all the treasures and coins from them. I will need them in the auction. Also, take control of their cities; they don't deserve to be rulers."

Ibro was frustrated by them, as he fought demons all over their planet without their interference. This stand wasn't neutral in his eyes, but it was hostile to him. 

They must have some relations with those demons. So, they didn't deserve holding positions in his empire. Ibro then looked to Maya as he said:

"Let's go back; we still have another battle to fight."

Ibro then moved with Maya back to the nearest city. Ibro had taken back all the remaining skeletons and Maya's cultivators. 

At the same time, Bilarn had finished his arrangements as he assigned some of his trusted men to supervise those players, then he followed Ibro and Maya to the city. 

Ibro moved back to the city that was under his control. When he exited the teleportation portal, he discovered the battle was nearly over. It seemed that the demons decided to withdraw from this world. 

Ibro didn't mind this, but he moved rapidly to annex all the remaining gates on the field. Any additional gate would be useful for him. 

He needed to form huge armies as he intended to invade the gate world from his pocket space. Once finished, he returned to the city as he found Gorsag waiting for him.

"Welcome back, my king, and congratulations on the great victory."

"You did a good job here. Are you ready to conquer this world?"

Gorsag looked at the current state of the city, it was full of ruins. His men were either dead or injured. Even the skeletons had lost over half of their initial numbers. 

It was a hard task to hold this city, not conquering this world. Ibro understood the dilemma Gorsag was in, so he said:

"Don't worry, I will send reinforcements in one day. Besides here is Bilarn, the leader of the local NPCs. He joined my empire so he will help you in controlling this world."

Bilarn greeted Gorsag as they both entered into the hot discussion. Ibro left them as he had another thing to do. He was sure the mission of conquering this world would be easy, as the demons had already forsaken this world. 

The trouble of players would be solved either softly or forcefully. Ibro wasn't concerned about this world, but about the gate world. The demons weren't stupid, they must be sure of his success in reaching there. 

All these efforts were just to delay his arrival. That meant two facts, the first they weren't ready for him yet, and the second they were trying to prepare and gather more demons. 

Ibro didn't know from where all these demons would come, but he must be ready when he reached there.

"Let's go into your world."

Maya looked at him before asking:

"Didn't we have an auction tomorrow?"
