Chapter 1622 A Great And Useless Map
That was great news. I held little desire and curiosity to know what the enemy was trying to do here, what technique they used to activate the bombs, but that didn\'t matter anyway.
What truly mattered was to crush everything here, get freed, and foiling the grand scheme of the clone and my grand enemies together. That was what would my day, that was what would win me a war.
So I kept releasing more fire without any reservations. Even if the entire continent would get destroyed after this, I didn\'t care.
In the next five hours, the entire underground colossal structure got ruined under my fire. And soon enough, the bright energy coming from this cave vanished. And there I saw the bombs at last.
Tens of thousands of them, even hundreds of thousands of bombs, were laid at the ground in many compartments. Thanks to luck and fate, my fire didn\'t do any harm at all towards these bombs. It seemed they got extremely sturdy shells or something. Or perhaps the main reason laid in the process of making these bombs, from the hearts of violent stars.
Fire? It wasn\'t going to do anything to these bombs at all. And then it came down to me to try and deactivate them fast.
Yet I knew even before starting this process that it\'d take a long time. And so I sent a warning to Lily, telling her I was going to vanish for another month or something.
Of course she panicked, complaining about my repeated delaying in coming to help. But when I promised that after this period I\'d return and concentrate fully on taking down the enemies, she finally agreed.
That wasn\'t entirely true. The enemy continents still had lots of bombs hidden everywhere. But to me, I could easily move around, locate all the bomb places, then leave such a task for the digging team. After a few months, I\'d return to collect and deactivate these bombs. And then I\'d get freed from such headaches once and for all.
After I closed the chat with her, I started to closely examine these bombs.
They weren\'t just dormant bombs like the ones I deactivated before. These bombs were in the middle of the process of getting activated. And so I didn\'t hurry to do it, and first started to examine them.
I went inside the mirror world and kept examining them. As expected, they got little changes than the dormant bombs, and even the drawings over their surfaces showed a change.
"Hmm… So this time it\'s speaking about how deadly their explosion is going to be," I looked at the drawings appearing on their surfaces, getting the hidden message behind these.
The ones who made these bombs seemed to have some sense of irony. They described in great detail what would happen after activating these bombs. And luckily they also provided a way to stop this, as if they were ironically mocking and challenging the ones getting hit by these bombs.
But this time there was something new. The old drawings spoke about how to make these bombs from stars. And that proved to be quite challenging for me. Yet this time, I found something like a grand map of a place in the middle of the universe.
When I looked at this, it seemed like a small star map, describing a place somewhere in the universe. When I followed the drawings, I could tell this was a key map towards a place, some place important, a place with a machine to make all these bombs!
Damn! This was huge! But in the next moment, all my excitement vanished.
"It\'s like looking for a needle in a haystack," this map would be priceless for those familiar with the universe it described. The ones who made these bombs were describing a place in their universe, which I didn\'t know.
Realising this made me drop my attention and interest in this map. If a time came and I got to know about anything related to the ones who made these bombs, then it\'d be very useful. But aside from dreaming about the impossible, I sighed and focused on how to deactivate these bombs.
The method was generally the same, but I got to touch new places first. After testing it a few times, I finally started to deactivate these bombs in great numbers.
I stopped hesitating anymore, and focused solely on deactivating these bombs. At the same time, I sent out all of my warriors to the surface, letting them fight against the Valkyries, killing them during the upcoming two weeks.
I thought it\'d take me a month to deal with these bombs, but it didn\'t take longer than two weeks. And when I went to the surface, I found everything under my forces\' control.
All the Valkyries got killed, all the weird storms stopped, and the trees were burning or destroyed. The entire continent was now under my control. But I didn\'t plan to stick here any longer.
I called back my warriors, left here and went directly towards other continents. Unlike what I did so far, this time my sole mission was to do a search and look for any bombs in all the remaining continents.
This took me around three more weeks. But I marked everything using my pillar\'s bubble, saved all the places using my staff. I even established portals at these places, to facilitate the upcoming mission of the digging team.
During all this time, the entire progress of war was finally getting under control. The appearance of Karoline helped greatly in distracting lots of the enemy forces towards her.
She fought fiercely against everyone, not only working against me. That was a bit weird, but it helped in relieving lots of pressure off my shoulders.
The greatest help she did was to start invading other regions. She controlled ten continents at first, then doubled this number after one month. The enemies tried to stop her advance, tried to invade her ten continents at first, but ended up losing badly on her hands.
