Chapter 135

Everything disappeared in front of him and that dark gloomy nature of the underground world was replaced immediately by the sunny atmosphere.

The area around him turned into wide open green plains which extended endlessly everywhere. He looked around him in vigilance. He was all alone but he didn't stand at his place as he moved immediately towards nearby trees.

He hid there and started observing the area with concentration. He was teleported to an unknown place. He didn't know where he was. He didn't know if he was near or far from his village.

He even didn't know if he was in the same world or he had moved to another game world. His confusion didn't last long as he heard weak voices that came from afar. He listened carefully.

He could hear interrupted horn sounds with some vague muffled voices. There seemed to be a war out there. He recognized the horn sound of the underground monsters. These bastards.

He recalled the words of that monster. He said it had something else to do. Was it planning to lead troops to hit another villager? Wasn't he the only person marked in this world by his enemy?

That gave him some hope. That enemy wasn't fixated only upon him. The possibility of finding a potential ally drove more hope into him. Hope was always the fuel of a desperate person.

He moved immediately towards the source of the sound. Throughout his travels, he didn't meet any monsters or humans. He hoped he was in the same world and near his village.

It took him nearly two hours to be so close to the battlegrounds. When he reached there he observed the situation from his place. There was a huge monsters' army in front of him.

Their numbers were nearing the limit of 50 million monsters. They were all underground monsters. They kept pouring out from a cave opening that resembled the cave openings at his territory.

There was even a small hill out there. In front of these monsters lay a small wooden village. What stopped these monsters from destroying this village was a huge player's army.

They were players as their way of fighting reminded Ibro of his old days at Rioneed. Those players' numbers weren't as big as the monsters, but like any player, they had the advantage of resurrecting.

Although every time a player died he lost one level, but after a few monsters were being killed under this player's attacks he gained this lost level back again.

That kept the battle situation under some balance though the win was leaning slightly towards the side of the monsters. Ibro could see many flags on the wooden wall of this village.

These flags carried the same logo; it was a picture of a beautiful female that was wearing a shiny golden armor with a long sword in her hand. Ibro kept in his place without making any move or sound.

He observed this feverish battle for over 7 hours. The defenders' human army was losing. Ibro was sure these players were following the lead of some guild.

Their organization and tacit teamwork were obvious to his expert eyes. That guild was either in possession of this village or they were following the lead of this village lord.

He didn't care about which was true as he was concerned about another matter. Why would his enemy be focused on this lord? All this time the flood of underground monsters didn't stop pouring into this grinding battle.

The humans tried more than once to attack this cave opening but they failed. Their numbers weren't enough for them to divert some of their troops to take this opening down.

While Ibro was thinking about whether he should help this village lord or not, he heard a loud voice echoing throughout the battlefield:

"Your pathetic resistance is really without any effect. My master has launched his skill here. Our reinforcements would keep pouring into your world. You will never be able to kill all of us, Noda. Just surrender.

All my master wants is to hold you captive. Your older brother is really arrogant. Does he think he could change the situation there? You won't be killed. Don't waste our time here; we still have many places to visit."

"I will never surrender to you. This battle is far from over. Your weak monsters are killed over and over again under my guild's blades. Come and send all the monsters you can. I will kill them all."

"You are no less stubborn than your brother. My master received the order from our paragon. You will never be given the chance to establish your village. Your journey will end here.

I will imprison you myself and enjoy you day and night before giving you back to your brother. Keep attacking boys, I want her alive. Kill anyone else except her. Burn this village to the ground."

Ibro was listening attentively to the two voices. He also managed to see the general figures of both of them. The girl was like the picture on the flags. That monster was like the one he killed before but with 5 pairs of arms only.

Ibro understood much information from these few words. These monsters weren't just targeting him but they were targeting many lords like him. This girl was targeted because of her brother.

It seemed that brother was really a thorn in the face of his true enemy. Ibro decided to help her. She was an enemy to his enemy which made her technically his ally.

The issue was how would he help her? And after the battle, how would he justify his presence here? What about his name? Even if she didn't recognize him now, one of those players would. He was really in a dilemma.

"Congratulations player. Your village managed to uproot all the monsters attacking your village. You can upgrade your village anytime you want. Do you want to upgrade it now or postpone it?"

Ibro was surprised by this announcement. Could he upgrade his village from his distant place? Was he near the village? He didn't hesitate and decided to upgrade the village now.

He wanted to send a message to his people back at Hepatia. He wanted to tell him he was alive so they continued developing his village.

Ibro had full trust in Hoden's ability to plan everything till he returned. Although he might be conservative in his moves, that was acceptable for him.

"I choose to upgrade the village."

"Congratulation player. Hepatia village has been upgraded. The village is now in '' Esteemed Village " grade.

You gained 10 levels in your lord's class. you gained 10 levels at your general level. You have 1000 AP to distribute. Regarding your multiple achievements, you got a bonus.

You have 10 days to rise normally based on either adventure mode or lifestyle mode. Each level you gain during this period will give you 10 AP. Which mode do you chose?"

Ibro didn't believe his ears. He finally managed to raise his level and he got 10 levels at once. He had a 10 days opportunity to raise his level faster. He looked ahead towards the monsters' sea which swarmed the world around him. He asked in curiosity:

"If I choose adventure mode, then can I get exp from every soldier or player that followed me as a lord?"

"Yes, you will get a fixed percent from every player or NPC that is following your lord banner."

Ibro smiled widely. He then said:

"I choose adventure mode."
