The things from other magic-rich spots were so-so as they were mostly resources at the level of Epic-rank.
However, Almond did find another thing with weird symbols and language. It was a one-time use item of control type. He enriched his Whispering Knowledge with it by deciphering its symbols and language, getting one step closer.
Afterward, he went in search of the next tribe to conquer.
Almond first made a list of which other tribes were near the planet Earth’s allied tribes before deciding to target the Hualea Tribe.
Upon inspection, Almond found out that it was allied with the Elves as he saw two elves stationed there.
Just as Almond was about to return after finishing the inspection, he had a thought, ‘I don’t really need whole armies, I think. How about I just go in, kill the tribe leader, snatch the statue again, and conquer it?’
Almond looked at the tribe within his domain as he floated thoughtfully.
‘I am strong enough to do that, after all.’
Almond’s eyes glinted and he vanished, teleporting right behind the two elves who were sitting cross-legged in the garden, in meditation.
After a single slash with Emma’s poison on both, he sealed them within a spatial bubble.
Right after that, he teleported to the training ground where the tribe chief of these Hualea people with four arms and crocodile-like heads overlooked the training of his warriors.
Almond floated above, his presence completely masked.
‘How vulnerable…’ Almond thought with a wry smile as he looked at his prey.
In the next moment, he dived down from 100 meters high in the sky, his sword enchanted with his elements in different proportions, based on Severance Blade, and his Sword of Imperishable Zenith activated.
*Slash!*
Everyone heard an atmospheric tearing sound, jarring, and then a loud rumble immediately as Almond’s sword split the tribe chief into two.
“What happened?!”
“NOOO!”
“Chief!”
“Y-You…who are you!?”
Everyone was shocked.
Almond stood there beside the dead body as he took out the storage ring from the tribe chief’s finger and peeked inside.
‘Nice, the statue is there.’
Almond looked ahead, his glance sweeping at the warriors.
The aura wildly releasing from him, from his arsenal of powers and mostly his overbearing will was so oppressive that none of the warriors dared to come forward and attack Almond.
The fear filled them entirely.
He killed their strongest warrior instantly and now stood there nonchalantly.
The guts of these warriors died at that scene.
“Your tribe chief is dead,” Almond calmly said. “The two elves are also dead.”
“And you all have one option. Surrender and become a tribe under my alliance. I will unite this whole region and end this war. More people don’t need to die.”
“But,” Almond narrowed his eyes, causing everyone to take a step back at his sharp gaze and killing intent bursting out of him, “Refuse and I will lay waste to this tribe, completely.”
*Thud…*
*Thud…*
One by one, knees began to fall as the warriors surrendered.
Their tribe chief, their strongest warrior, was dead.
Their guardian deity statue was snatched.
They could feel that refusal would kill a lot of their people, their families, and everyone in the tribe.
Some of the warriors looked at those who surrendered as they bit their lips and clenched their fists hard enough to bleed.
Even those who felt defiant lost their drive seeing others as they knelt.
The commotions attracted other warriors as more people arrived.
“What’s going on?!”
“What are y- chief?!”
“C-Chief is dead…”
Almond stood there, in silence. He looked at them and sat down on a crystal-glass golden throne he created with lightning and sand elemental reaction.
“Mourn, cry, or come at me if you want to kill me and die. But, the result will not change.”
…
Almond made a tribe-wide announcement after all the warriors surrendered and then he killed the two elves he had sealed, gaining 2000 battlefield points.
Meanwhile, the main leaderboard changed as Planet Earth acquired 10,000 cumulative battlefield points.
Almond didn’t stop and continued with this method, intending to conquer more tribes this way.
While he chose his next target, the people of all four worlds were dumbfounded.
However, the other three worlds had already decided to work together and they didn’t take long to launch their attack.
Since the Hawkfrey Tribe was conquered, and the people of Planet Empyradrake knew its location, they decided to launch their attacks on the Hawkfrey Tribe.
At the Sorrenal Tribe allied with planet Cyberterra, the three big groups were gathered, 30 people from each world, so a total of 90 Gold-rank adventurers from planet Empyradrake, Cyberterra, and Eldoren.
“That bastard conquered one more tribe!”
“Whose tribe is it?”
“Fucking hell. Should we still attack Hawkfrey Tribe?”
The people of the three worlds standing in groups started talking while the three leaders sat frowning as they looked at the leaderboard.
“Fuck it,” Zoltrend spat. “It doesn’t matter which tribe he conquered. For now, we have gathered our men here, and we are ready. Let’s launch an attack on Hawkfrey Tribe and kill everyone there.”
“Even if he is not there, we will kill other people of Planet Earth. When he comes there, we will lock him in with our preparation, that’s all.”
Leo and El thought only for a moment before nodding.
“Alright, let’s do this,” El said.
“We brought a total of 850 warriors from our nearest allied tribes, plus the ninety of us. That should be enough to obliterate them swiftly,” Leo narrowed his eyes. “According to the Cyber Eyes I sent, the Hwakfrey Tribe currently houses 550 warriors in total. 300 from Hawkfrey, and the rest are mixed warriors of five other tribes.”
“What about the gold rankers of planet Earth?” Zoltrend asked.
“There are roughly thirty of them there. Around twenty of them have solid legendary gear sets of high-tier. They are tough, but we can still overpower them since we brought our best gold rankers as well,” Leo answered as his right cyber-eye flickered. “We just need to save our artifacts for the main target.”
“And if Hawkfrey Tribe uses the Guardian Deity, I will use the Guardian Deity of Rodern Tribe I brought,” El said as he put the statue on the table.
The trio looked at each other and nodded as they stood up.
“Everyone! It’s time to move!”
Although these three forces joined together, they obviously didn’t reveal their own cards fully.
Each one of them only revealed one artifact. One control type from planet Cyberterra, one attack type from planet Empyradrake, and one debuff type from planet Eldoren.
After all, they were only allies temporarily, and they still planned to attack each other, so showing all of their cards was stupid.
…
At the Hawkfrey Tribe, the Grim Breakers and ten others were doing different things. Some were training, some were meditating, and some were sparring against each other or warriors.
Almond’s Spirit Wraiths were also there. Stay updated through My Virtual Library Empire
Nyssara and Sylvia were working on a magic formation together while others were hanging out with warriors.
Suddenly, Sylvia who could sense things much larger radius thanks to her Forest’s Blessing and her little nature spies as well as the watch towers of the tribe detected movement from a direction.
‘Attack? I have to inform the master fast!’ Sylvia quickly sent a thought message to Almond with their spirit connections.
Three big flying ships of different types, vibes, and designs were flying towards them.
Hawkfrey Tribe had pretty good watch towers and detection because they could fly and fly greatly because of their racial talents, but Almond was their nightmare because he teleported right into their tribe.
But now, they detected the incoming movement from roughly two kilometers away in the sky.
“WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!”
