Chapter 385: 385

He felt doubt, as he suspected the presence of huge numbers of demon gates nearby, but he couldn't find any for hours even when using his divine sense. 

When he was deep in doubt, he finally glimpsed an area filled with demon gates, so he headed straight for it. When he neared it, he could finally know what was going on here. 

His enemy seemed to be more cunning than usual, as it didn't spread the demon gates around his portal, but it clustered them around the villages in this world. 

This acted as a safeguard against Ibro if he desired to free any village, as freeing one would be an arduous task for him. Ibro looked silently for a while to all these endless numbers of gates then he smiled evilly.

'You really underestimate me, buddy. System, I want you to use my divine senses and move many demon gates every second.'

'That would put extreme pressure over you, and your soul sea energy can't match this.'

'Don't use my soul sea energy then, just use my PSR energy.'

The system went silent for a moment before it said again:

'The consumption rate will be very high, I'm afraid you will consume all the PSR crystals you have and that wouldn't be enough to move even one-third of these gates.'

Ibro thought for a second before proposing:

'Then move half and destroy half, this way you can replenish the consumed PSR crystals, and even add more.'

'...'

The system didn't reply while Ibro added:

'C'mon, it's a win-win situation here. I get more gates for my worlds, you get huge quantities of PSR energy, and I manage to free this village here.'

'Fine, I will do it, but you can't fight back while I'm moving and absorbing these gates.'

Ibro didn't care as he said:

'Then move some skeletons from my world to here, after all these boys need to work out a bit.'

'...'

Ibro wasn't out of options, as he had endless armies in his own space. When he thought about it, he found that he had his worlds that were connected to this gate world now via the teleportation portal. 

That meant he could move from anywhere in this world, go back to his space world, and then return either to the portal location or to the place he disappeared from. 

That was weird, though, as it felt like an infinite loop to him. Ibro then waited for his system to summon enough skeletons around him. He also started to summon his dragons and liches as well. 

The appearance of skeletons abruptly in this location caused severe chaos, as huge battles erupted from the first moment the skeletons appeared here. 

Ibro helped his skeletons at the beginning by striking many sword whirlpool strikes towards the demons' flood. 

That helped in relieving the pressure a little over the summoned skeletons, which started to organize themselves and create a secure area around Ibro. 

The dragons hovered in the air securing the air space around him, too. After the passage of one hour, Ibro was ready.

'Start acting now.'

'Don't move.'

The system started to act, as the numbers of demon gates began to shrink with speed visible to the naked eye. 

This phenomenon didn't pass unnoticed by the demons, as they started to attack the area around Ibro more aggressively. Ibro didn't give them any attention, as he was observing the remnant gates in the far distance. 

Although his system moved over 1000 gates with every second, that didn't affect much the amount of demon gates. 

Ibro also noticed that at some cleared places under the effect of his system actions, new gates appeared out of nowhere. He deduced that the demons were trying to fight back and summon more gates to replace the lost ones. 

Ibro gritted his teeth, as he couldn't move to help his system in this attrition war. The goal of his enemies was clear; they were trying to stall time as long as possible, as this would delay Ibro's actions a lot. 

Ibro's hands were strictly tightened here, as he was forced to be a watcher over all this. He needed to find another effective way, though, as he suggested:

'Use ultimatum energy every once in a while, don't just focus on the PSR energy.'

'Didn't you ask me to use only PSR energy?'

'I did, but it doesn't work, these demons are sneaky bastards, as they are replacing the gates you take away at a rapid speed.'

'Ok, I will use the ultimatum energy then.'

The change in the energy used had a miraculous effect on the performance of the system. The number of gates he could move had skyrocketed to near the limit of 10k gates in one second. 

That was far faster than the speed of the demons' replacement of their gates. Ibro wasn't relieved, though, as he knew he couldn't keep this rapid pace forever. But, at least he could speed things up a little. 

The race between his system and these demons kept going on for long hours, till the next day came up and most of the gates were emptied by the system finally. 

Regardless of this, the number of demons around this village didn't decrease at all, but instead it increased by a small margin. 

Ibro guessed that was the arrangement of his hidden wicked enemy, which must have moved the nearby demons to concentrate fully on this region.

Ibro didn't mind this, though, as he still had a card he didn't use yet.

'Sa Romy Dai.'

'Alfa Ta Shtoy.'

'Sa Romy Dai.'

'Alfa Ta Shtoy.'

When Ibro summoned his two huge hands with two huge swords, the mechanism of action of his system was interrupted immediately. So, it said angrily:

'I told you not to use your energy at all, what are you doing?'

Ibro smiled as he took out one of his storage rings and took out 10 of his runes while saying:

'It's time to wrap things here, we wasted enough time already. As before, detonate these runes in suitable places to create a buffer zone for my skeletons. Also summon more skeletons to join the defending forces of this village.'

'…'
