[No, you gave me a great idea… by the way, when will that happen?]
[Well… I guess you have one up to three to prepare]
[Days? Weeks? Or months?]
[No, hours! One up to three hours dude! No more, no less!]
[Damn! That's… That's like not giving me any time at all to do anything!]
[Then start doing what the hell you got in your crazy mind, do it fast, and pray to succeed at the end]
[I will! No one is going to rip me off my victory and gains here, no matter who, no matter what!] I closed the chat with him, feeling the fire of determination blazing wildly inside my heart.
Yes, I spent too much time preparing for all this. And no one got the right to steal such hard earned victory by some cheap tricks!
Trying to get reinforcements to kill me? Trying to stop me? Huh! As you decided to struggle when you were this close from the doorsteps of death, then let me handle whatever you thought might work, and give you the last push over that door.
[Change of plans… Something big is going to happen in the next three hours at most]
[What will happen?] And as I closed the chat with that dude, I opened another with Lily.
[The enemy is going to merge all the worlds together, open a grand portal out, and call in for more reinforcements on his side]
[This… Right now? Can they do it?]
[They indeed are succeeding in their attempts to do so]
[Tsk! And here I thought I'd get my long awaited vacation]
[Girl! Wake up! This isn't a trip in the park or a school assignment! It's the apocalypse… We will never enjoy a single moment of rest until we'll crush everything and every enemy around!]
[Tsk! Even so we could have enjoyed a few weeks of rest before this all is going to be over and return back]
[I know] I could relate perfectly with what she felt and thought about, [But we got no choice here. Notify everyone, let them gather up our forces, ready them for the incoming hellish battle]
[Do you know which world will be the axis of all this?]
[Ah, forgot to ask!] I paused, [But it won't matter! We will crush our way through anything no matter what!]
[If I was them, I'd ask for one of my home worlds that didn't get under our control yet to be the centre of all this]
[I agree… But still it won't matter]
[Do you know what forces are coming? How many of them?]
[Let's expect the worse and consider we are going to face entire armies, nations, and even worlds in the upcoming war]
[This…]
[Don't fret, never panic! This is going to be the last stand, the last futile struggle of the enemy before finally falling to their knees and dying!]
[Cool! I'll inform others]
[Tell them to get ready to accept something from me… Send people out to the central place of ground zero. I'll deliver these items over and let them distribute them]
[What are these?]
[The second part of teleportation devices] I paused, [The first and biggest challenge we'll have to face and deal with is arranging a stable way of communication and teleportation. I bet the enemy plans to strike hard from the start, using the initial chaotic situations we'll face before we'll sort things out]
[Good point… So they'll just install them at their current worlds and zones? Didn't we get enough of these?]
[No, they'll wait until the merge is done first and then install these devices over] I paused, before adding in warning, [I don't guarantee any tricks the enemy will use. They may cut down any existing communicating portals between the zones and worlds. If that happens, then we'll have to start all over again. If not, then such move won't harm us in anyway]
[Got it! I'll dispatch people over right now and inform others about all this]
[Good girl!] I felt blessed to have someone like her by my side. At such stressful moments, I'd trade a hundred of the useless trash jumpers with one capable one like Lily.
As I waited for her people to come over, I started to buy lots of twin portal devices from the market, not caring about any cost at this point.
At the same time, I started to consider something I prepared for too long and never got the chance to use this far; the research department deadly weapons.
The enemy seemed to have utmost trust in their ability in overrunning my forces and races on my side. Such trust must have come from strong and deadly cards the enemy got.
I couldn't tell what gave them such an impression, but lessons from before taught me to never underestimate this enemy.
If they thought they got a good chance and an advantage against me, in such a desperate situation, then I got to take things seriously then.
Aside from using the chaos happening at the early days after the merge, the lack of support and connection between my vast armies and races, there was also the lack of communication.
That could be solved also by the twin devices I was buying right now.
Then I thought about what else the enemy could depend upon to win this war.
"Dammit! Don't tell me they got such confidence just from this!!!" and just in half an hour, and after delivering the items over to the large number of people Lily sent, and as I watched them flash through portals and leave to deliver them, I got a scary thought all of sudden.
It was such a horrifying idea, one that made me feel truly threatened.
"Don't tell me they want to take down everything with them!" I already defused all the deadly bombs planted in the twenty worlds and zones. But so far, there was nothing I could do about the stolen tech, these damn bombs planted at the homebase worlds of the enemy.
