They got to gather up all the gears they could find, be it intact or damaged, it didn't matter anymore.
When I first arrived here, I wanted to desperately accumulate all the gears I could get my hands at. I planned to go back to my research department to start working on these, and see if they could reverse engineer the tech behind these awesome gears.
But right now I didn't feel any urge to do so. I got tons of unused gears in my inventory, and I knew I'd get much more of these by the end of this quest.
There were twenty worlds out there, all filled with an endless number of fiends. When I first stepped in this tiny universe, I was faced with few and rare encounters with friends.
But now? Fiends looked just like how zombies and locusts were!
In the middle of taking down the bombs, I made sure to exit the mirror world every month, go out to collect all the gears and bones from the gathered dead bodies of the enemies.
After all, this was the second task I entrusted for my forces here. They got to gather up all the dead bodies, collect them in huge mountains and hills, leave them behind for me to collect bones from.
Doing so saved me lots of time and effort actually. Just taking bones from such gathered bodies was a simple task, one that I easily did without any need to travel a lot.
I only took a week in the real world to collect all the bones and gears my forces collected. Then I left instructions to burn all the dead bodies, before starting to gather up new ones.
I returned to my mirror world again, and kept this routine going. After doing this for six times, I already covered up the entire world here, spending six months in the mirror world, close to one month and a half in real world time.
The sudden increase in my time in doing all this came from my work out there to collect bones and bodies. After the first tour all over the world, I stored many bookmarks, making it easier and faster to go around this world.
"Time to visit others then…"
As Lily said, all the worlds beside the jumpers and angels were controlled by my forces. Even the hot zones like the god race world and Toramos zone, all got cleared already.
The last world I left was the god race world and also the Toramos zone. I didn't trust her words actually, and decided to give these two places more time to get under total control.
When I went to the god world, I got to see the old honeycomb-like structure of this world. It was now only filled with gods, flying everywhere, showing signs of brutal power like never before.
They got blessed by the forces I left here. And that changed their overall level of strength, making me crave to see them in action when we'd get back.
I didn't say much to them, just did the same like other worlds, and started to do my work. I got absorbed and used to defusing bombs to the extent of growing dull to such actions.
Upgrading more bones, taking down more bombs, and even acquiring tons of gears and bones didn't seem to make me feel anything at all.
It felt like… Emptiness! Weird emptiness, not the usual excitement and happiness like I used to feel before.
I didn't know when this all started, but by the end of all this, and after spending close to ten years this time, I felt like this.
Nothing seemed to pick my interest anymore. Was this the real sign of getting powerful? Or because I felt like this quest was already in my grasp? Was it my win?
Just when I felt like this, I never expected that such a stable situation here would take a sharp and dangerous turn so soon!
"Phew… It's finally over," I couldn't believe I spent such a long time doing all this. But when I got done, I knew it was worth all the trouble and effort I put in even before coming here.
I kept preparing for a long, really long time for this day. And now I could reap the benefits of my earlier hard work.
I came here while facing lots of doubts, only struggling to try and survive. And now I ended up conquering every single world and enemy armies they sent in my face!
No matter what the enemy tried, even the scary grand worms, the elite Exomachines and the all unique high zombies… Nothing could stop me and my forces at the moment.
Or that was what I thought at this moment.
"Time to return back and start a grand meeting…" I paused before recalling how a really long time passed since I last paid a visit to the angelic world.
It looked like it was a totally different life, something that happened to me.
[Make preparations for a grand meeting] But before paying a visit again to the angelic world, or visiting the Toramos zone, I went back to ground zero and sent this message over to Lily.
[Are we finally going to crush the remaining two worlds?]
[That's the plan. But these two worlds are unique]
[I know, I already paid a visit to both when you were away]
[Oh, how are things going?]
[I… I don't know how to describe those jumpers. They are the sole reason behind us not taking control easily on that world]
[How so?] I got a few ideas about what she really meant. But I had to ask and listen to her side of the story.
[They looked… Reluctant to get saved! As if we came in and ruined their peaceful way of life!]
[Hahahahaha! That's expected! After all, those bastards lived really such a nice and cosy way of life for so damn long]
[For real? They weren't struggling like other races?!!]
