Chapter 720 - A Plan
'I'll bring the portal and let you pass through it constantly,' Gege said, 'a lousy and slow process yet effective. This way when the two portals overlap, the other hidden one will be activated along the one we are using.'
"Will I enter inside her world?" Arthur couldn't help but ask, "that would be quite risky."
He knew how godly Gege would behave while she was inside her world. Entering into someone else's world would be a suicide mission.
'No, we will just activate it to reveal its location,' she explained.
'Ding! Then what? Destroy it?'
'Not logical,' she said, 'if we did so then she can simply come out and create another portal. That's if I don't have more than a portal all around like I used to do.'
"Then?"
'I will simply absorb the portal inside my world,' Gege said with a sweet laugh, 'c'mon guys, it's pretty simple and obvious.'
"For you," Arthur shook his head helplessly, "alright, move me back there at once."
'Ding! What about here?' the system asked, 'Ding! Regardless of the big loss of all the mechas, we won't be risking adding more enemies there, right?'
"We… can wait until he arrives," Arthur said.
'And I can get Doaf or Amera here.'
"Bring Amera," Arthur decided without hesitation, "she would love to fight freely all to her heart's content."
'I'll notify her then.'
Arthur didn't stand and wait for the two reinforcements to arrive. He kept fighting with all he got, evading the attacks with Gege's help.
"Roar!"
All of sudden a mighty roar kicked in before a large group of dreadful looking monsters came from the side of the array.
"That's my boy," Arthur smiled despite knowing his pet alone wouldn't be enough.
"You called me here to have more fun, didn't you?" Amera's cheerful voice suddenly came from his side.
She appeared there alongside her entire team, or what was left of it.
"I should grant you some reward after all this," she winked and Arthur shortly laughed.
"I'll make sure to stick you to that promise," he winked back before adding, "see you after all this ends… I've something important to do."
"Acting like a big shot won't impress most of the girls," she said with a joke while smashing an enthusiastic foolish mage who thought highly of himself, "but I like it."
Arthur gave her a long glance before vanishing off the entire place and appearing three miles away.
"Let's get this done, properly please," he said, "I've got a sexy girl waiting for me after all this."
'She is a giant, and you are a dwarf,' Gege complained, 'how would you two get together?'
"I'll tell you when I try it," Arthur laughed on her comment, "let's stop the chit chat here. We have a ticking bomb just over our heads."
The next moment he started to vanish from his place and reappear just a couple of meters to the side. He seemed like his image was getting blurry, like a malfunction or something.
And for the next hour he kept scanning all the area around, while finding nothing at all and the number of mages waiting on the other side just kept swelling.
"Damn!" he cursed the moment he spotted something scary at the other end of the portal.
The world… it was literally on fire right now.
'Ding! They won't make it if they stay there,' the system said, 'Ding! And we didn't get a clue over that portal.'
'It's tricky,' Gege said, 'there is no option here but whoever controls this portal is keeping it moving all over the place.'
"Smart bastard," Arthur cursed, "what now?"
'We… have one option,' Gege slowly said, 'but I bet you won't like it.'
"Try me," Arthur said, "we are out of options here."
'I can merge all the portals in one big hell of one,' she said, 'but this won't come without a price.'
"For you?"
'For all of us,' she said, 'the portals will stop working for a long time, a very long time.'
Arthur paused for a minute before making up his mind. "Do it," he said, "it's not like we would face a more desperate situation than this."
'Ding! I hope so.'
The next moment all the portal vanished before Gege warned:
'Once I do this, every single one here will be teleported to my body. I can handle a couple of hundred of them, but not thousands.'
"Release the warning," Arthur firmly said, "we have a hell of fight after this inside your garde."
'I'll spread the word.'
She took couple of minutes before saying:
'All are informed, let's hope this won't lead to our deaths.'
"Do it," Arthur said, "the more time we waste here the less reinforcements we'll have later on."
'Hang tight big boy,' Gege said, 'I'm also dying to see you sleeping with that sexy giant.'
The next moment a grand portal appeared on top of their heads. It stretched for miles, tens of miles, like a gigantic mirror.
"Do it!"
The gigantic portal flipped and simply like that not a single person or monster in that stretch of miles escaped its reach.
"Rumble!"
The moment they appeared inside the garden, the entire world shook.
'I can't handle all this energy at once,' Gege warned, 'we got ourselves in less than half an hour.'
"Half an hour is a lot to kill one man," Arthur turned his gaze around, "where is that bastard?"
'Ding! Over there,' the system suddenly said, 'Ding! I regained my abilities.'
'I got it,' Gege said, 'be ready, I'll teleport you, Amera, Doaf, and your werewolf to him.'
"Don't let him use his portal," Arthur said before he vanished from his place like magic.
"Got you!"
The next moment he stood in front of a giant man who had his body covered in dark and strangely moving tattoos. His upper half was almost naked except for that green scarf circling around his neck.
"You… are very good," the mage seemed not to be fazed by this, "but you need more than your pathetic lowly dragonair's power to stop me."
"Who said he is alone?"
