Rioneed: VRMMORPG

A thought flashed in his mind. Ibro understood the gravity of the situation. He smiled faintly as he said to the players:

"As you can see, your role will be very simple. You will be my messengers to your worlds. I want you to recruit the biggest numbers of players and NPCs. I will give you huge amounts of stones. 

Whoever joins you, he must take this stone. Your next task is to take possession of a city. You can do it either by recruitment or by force. 

I will send with you a 2 billion skeleton army. They will help you to secure yourself. Do you have any objection?"

The healer exchanged silent glances with other players before she replied:

"We have none, my king."

Ibro smiled then he said to Gorsag:

"Send someone to the village. I need to get all the beta stones that are manufactured already."

Gorsag replied at once:

"Erond brought a huge amount with him. There are also many reserves there in the village."

Ibro smiled when he heard that. As long as he had an endless supply of these beta stones, then he would own the whole world.

"Good, let him do the math then. If the amount isn't enough for the 200 worlds we have here, then he must send someone to the village. 

Also, my alpha death knight is in possession of the cores we got from the pocket space. Make someone move them back to the village with enough security."

"I will do this now, my king."

Ibro then looked towards the female healer as he said:

"Now, you have nothing else missing except for the skeleton army. I will make your army ready in mere hours. Do you know any city there we can try to connect with?"

The female healer seemed to be ready for that question as she replied without any second thoughts:

"We can try to move to Foradite Legendary City."

The name caught Ibro's attention at once. He asked with curiosity:

"Is this city in your world or outside it?"

The girl replied with absolute confidence:

"It's inside our world. I went to this city countless times already."

Ibro asked for further information:

"Why do you choose this particular city? Is it because you lived there for a while?"

"No, it's because there were no demon attacks over the sea part of our world. I didn't get attacked except when I moved from this city back to my domain. I tried to help my friends, but I got caught instead."

Bingo! Another new critical info he had gotten now. Ibro asked to confirm this critical info:

"Are you sure the demons didn't attack you beyond the land's cities? They might take some time to reach the outer domains."

The girl was surprised by Ibro's knowledge of the specific characterizations of Foradite Legendary city. she shook her head before replying:

"No, that's not possible. The attacks over our world had started a couple of weeks ago. If these demons marched on foot, they would have reached the city a long time ago. 

The tunnels in the sky weren't present in the sky of the city. I only saw them when I left the city back to my domain."

Oh heavens! This girl's each word was a new data for him. Ibro glanced over Gorsag, who didn't understand the meaning behind this look. Ibro sighed after all Gorsag wasn't a genuine player. 

He was a cultivator. He might miss some small detail that would seem worthless in his opinion like these small data here. Ibro sighed; he didn't have the time to waste like that. He then said to Gorsag:

"Try to connect to this city from the nearest city to here. I will send the army to the city once you decide it."

Gorsag knelt down as he said:

"I will do this now, my king. Do you want me to bring the rest of the players now?"

Ibro was already bored from this meeting, so he ordered:

"You take my place. The terms are the same. Let them all wait in the city and I will send the skeletons in a few hours. Don't forget the stones and cores task I gave to you."

"I already sent someone to the alpha death knight to bring all the cores in his possession. Once I get them, I will send them at once through the nearest teleportation portal to the village."

"Good."

Ibro then left the place. this time, he didn't move to the south, but he traveled north. He never stopped monitoring the demons which escaped his troops' net. 

They were still in a hot search without stopping. Ibro still didn't know what they were looking for, but he had some guesses already. 

The lands had some cities that could weaken the power of demons, and the sea territories were forbidden. That only had one explanation in his mind.

'Can you analyze the nature of this world?'

The system replied:

'I can't analyze the whole world, if that's what you mean. I can only analyze everything under your divine sense coverage.'

Ibro gave it a moment of thought. He had already covered the whole region which the demons were searching with his divine sense. He replied at once:

'Ok, use it then.'

'Can you tell me what are we looking for? It would be easier for me to find it.'

Ibro collected his own thoughts then he expressed about them:

'This world has many cities that can weaken the demons. This world had forbidden seas for the demons. This isn't the way of this world but in the whole universe. 

That means only one thing; there are some remnants from the old human-demon war in this universe. These remnants are what these demons are looking for. 

I don't know what these remnants are, but you can search for any strange things. Also, anything with high energy would be suspicious too. 

If we managed to find these remnants, we can then evaluate the words of that mysterious voice better.'

The system kept silent for a moment before asking:

'What mysterious voice?'

Ibro nearly stumbled in his flight and was about to fall to the ground once he heard the system reply. Ibro said in doubt:

'Are you joking with me? Right? You don't know about what sound I'm referring to? We just met him after killing Gorat.'

The system took a few moments before asking seriously:

'I checked all the last events recorded in me. There was nothing like what you are talking about. What is this mysterious sound? 

When and where did you meet him? I have no record of such an event, which is so weird and suspicious.'

Ibro suddenly understood that his system wasn't with him there with that sound. That was really weird and suspicious. Ibro thought about those mysterious sound words seriously for the first time. 

That sound said he left some scattered time capsules in the universe waiting to be triggered. But why didn't his system recall anything? 

Was it silenced? Or was Ibro moved in time alone and then returned to the same moment? Ibro felt confused, but he started to narrate what happened and expressed his doubts. 

After he finished, the system kept his silence for a really long time before it said in a serious tone:

'I just had no authority to reveal any high-level secrets to you, but now I can reveal little. What you just experienced was real and not fake. This info even I don't have. 

Only some hidden facts and events I know they happened for sure. Even some events were unexplained until I heard what you said. My advice to you is to heed by this man's directions. 

After all, your fate was to gather three energies at the very least. So, why don't you extend your empire to these energies-based worlds as well? You won't lose anything. But if the man is right then you will win it big.'
