I Only Wanted A Class In The Apocalypse

That was indeed a problem! He also said that as long as I didn't send any force out, my world would always be protected by an invincible layer of shield. But if I tried to send anyone out, it would be seen as a declaration of war, announcing my readiness to attack others and get attacked.

That meant the moment I'd move, I had to not scout and just strike. I had to absorb worlds to mine, adding more territory there so I'd be able to increase the size of my world and get more forces inside.

There were also different techniques for building villages, towns, and cities. There were also others to build forts, towers, and other war facilities.

All this depended on the size of my world, and the amount of energy there. That made me realise what I did so far was worth it!

I let my world absorb tons of energy all this time. And that meant the amount of energy inside was enough to build many buildings.

But building these would also take a large part of the space, limiting the number of forces I'd send there.

So it came down to this; I had to send ten thousand elites, and once gathered there we'd move out first to strike down other territories.

According to his drawings and writings about the nature of this world, I got that strength there had nothing to do with the initial power of forces I'd send.

It was mainly related to the strength of the world. The higher the energy, the more boosts my forces would get. And that would turn a weakling into a real tyrant inside a formidable world.

And to increase energy inside any world, it was done in different ways. The most impressive strike of luck I got was that one of these was by moving one's cultivation base inside the world.

Doing this alone was enough to boost the energy concentration inside any world by at least ten folds, if not more. I kept reading about how difficult and complicated it was to move one's cultivation base inside.

And that meant not too many worlds inside that dark shadow universe had cultivation bases there.

Another way was by doing what I did, sending energy and forces there, sacrificing them to the world.

There were ways of using specific treasures, and the most important ways were two; time and expansion.

The older the world was, the more energy it got. The more territories conquered by its lord, the higher the energy it got.

So it was safe to assume that targeting smaller worlds was a guaranteed win. I aimed towards acting against these first, attacking and conquering them in one fell swoop, expanding my world to its largest limit.

"Lord… I brought all who can help," after almost ten hours, and as I was just halfway through what he left over for me, Zangibar returned with a large number of people.

I raised my head and saw hundreds of thousands, making me puzzled.

"You wrote that my world is still in the initial phase, so it can accommodate ten thousand only."

"Well, we are going for war, right? So we will expand our lord's territory inside, and add more forces when that happens," he seemed more excited about this, even more than I did.

"Ok, select the best ten thousand, and I'll make the technique needed to open a portal there," I said while returning to the large number of papers in front of me, messing with them and getting two out.

One was enough to allow ten thousand inside, and one for one hundred thousand.

The portals done by these techniques weren't like my techniques. They would vanish the moment the number they'd allow to pass would pass through.

"Lord, first leave a mark over all of us, or else…" he stopped me from starting out my technique, shifting my attention towards this important point that I missed.

I was still new to this business, and so I didn't know what to do properly.

"Where is this paper?" And to add more to my current embarrassment, I didn't yet cross past this kind of paper before.

"Here, this is the one, lord," Zangibar had to come to my chariot and help me to find this paper. I read through it, and luckily it was a simple technique.

"Alright, let's do this," this technique depended solely on drawing a few circles using my blood before releasing my threads and leaving a stamp over their bodies.

A word had to be said while making this technique, which was: Permit!

"Permit!"

I said it while finishing the technique. Then I watched my many threads scatter over, touch their bodies and leave something shining for a few seconds behind.

Then my threads died down and that shining mark vanished as well.

"We are ready, lord," Zangibar seemed to lead others as he selected the ten thousand most elite forces from here.

"Let's go!" The technique needed to make a gate was something that needed my blood to draw circles, saying the word of: Gate!

"Gate!" But I didn't just say it, and instead I also wrote it down.

This led to a huge ball of black energy appearing, making Zangibar's face slightly twitch.

"Lord… Your techniques… Are quite overbearing!"

"How so?" I looked at this ball which was this close to the gigantic ball of my merged technique.

"It can sustain itself for a long time without the lord's need to be here. And it also allows for much more than one hundred thousand to enter. I assume it can allow for anyone to pass during a fixed time, and that's a new and different concept than the technique I left for lord."

I got his point. I changed the portal from depending on the number of people passing through to the allocated time of its presence.

That was indeed an entirely different concept than the one of the techniques he provided.

"Just to be sure we don't spend lots of time inside fighting and the portal would end up closing," I said when I did a normal technique of his.

I didn't know for how long mine would last, so it was safer to leave behind one that wasn't bound by any time.
