What William didn't know was that Zin highly valued William's words and plans. As William expressed how much he wanted these items, he knew this item would play a great role in the upcoming battle.
So, he didn't flinch or hesitate, bringing twenty more of such items with him just in case he and others needed them to survive or win the upcoming clash.
Yet William didn't accept his offer. He just wanted a single item to help him later on. Then the use of this item would be over. It was pointless to use such a chance to get sothing useless back from Zin.
"Then…"
"Let's just wait for the right ti," William could tell how anxious Zin was, "once I have sothing I want from you, I'll co and make a deal with you."
"Ok…" Zin didn't have any option here. William then turned to everyone around and started speaking about their next movent plan.
"We are going to march towards that dark academy. Until we arrive there, we'll move and act as you see fit. But once we got close to that place, everyone had to listen to my words. If you don't, then I'm not responsible for any of your losses, got it?"
William's sudden words made everyone's face change. He then exchanged Bullets with everyone, before he turned to Lara.
"Lead us towards the closest portal to that place."
"Follow ," Lara simply said before starting to lead everyone towards the portal area. They gathered here as there was no space in the city to accommodate all of them.
Everyone followed Lara and their leaders inside the city. And once they arrived at the portal area, William noticed that Lara cleared a large section.
"I made arrangents," she said with a chuckle when she noticed the gaze over William's face, "all of these portals are redirected and led to the sa spot. Like this we can save lots of ti and move everyone fast to the sa spot."
"Nice," William simply responded, but his single word made Sara, Berry, and Ro exchange silent gazes among themselves.
Without the need of saying anything, they all thought of the sa thing, danger!
William moved in the first batch alongside his team vices. The portal was like a hole that sucked him inside, took him away while the world around changed into a world of dark blue.
It didn't take longer than one minute for William and others to arrive at the other side of the portal. There they found a grand settlent, where the portal they ca out from was there.
William was about to look around and see where the other portals were when Lara's voice echoed in his mind.
[This place is filled with lots of settlents. I made sure to establish portals here. We are distributed inside an area of twenty kilotres. We'll march to the north and et there]
"Got it," William felt like Lara prepared things beforehand, a long ti before he ca and told her about the date of their move.
"Welco to the Cluster settlent number three," a young man approached with a group of fifty others, all wearing bright red uniforms, "we are the ones responsible for this place. We got orders to help you in anything you need."
"Thanks, I just need a map of the area, and any news about anything dangerous around," William didn't want to waste much ti here. So he simply refused anything but these two pieces of valuable intel.
The young master didn't delay or ask anything, and handed William two scrolls as if he expected such a question from him.
"Lead our people out, arrange them outside this place and wait for ," William paused before turning to Thomas, Ibra, and Sara "follow ."
The latter didn't object and simply followed William. As for the rest, they started to do what he asked them to do.
The portal was already fast in delivering William's masters here. As for the latter, he led the three of his vices towards a side area in this place.
This settlent was like a grand camp that got low levelled walls, made entirely out of ores with good defensive abilities. There were many simple houses there, with few people living in this place.
It looked too simple to be a fort, but too fortified to be a village. William didn't get the history of this place and didn't care about it for now.
"Let's see these scrolls first," William highly appreciated the opinions of Sara and Ibra. The two were special masters, one was raised by a formidable master and was always trying to seek truth about hidden secrets of her family, while the other got to cause trouble from a young age and antagonised the academy rules.
The two always gave William good opinions about many things. As for Thomas, William got used to bringing him around whenever he was about to do sothing grand.
William stretched the two scrolls on the ground and started to read and check them like everyone else. The first thing he noticed was that the entire region was filled with hills.
"I hate hills," Thomas muttered, and everyone got what he ant by that. Hills around the academy and Scorching Lands were the bases of the dark forces. And seeing these hills made them all recall the dark masters.
But when they read the second scroll, they got to know that there wasn't a single dark master in the entire area. The area that was filled with hills got lots of settlents like this one built in the valleys in between the hills, making it look just like a city but got scattered by these hills or sothing.
The sole danger in the region ca from monsters. For a reason, monsters seed to love swarming this area, acting like a monster tide of category four or five.
"Hmm… Monsters were dispersed and distributed over the entire area, attacking settlents separately and at the sa ti… Weird…" William knew this wasn't how monsters should behave in normal situations.
