Agatha The Legendary Guild Master - Chapter 487
My spear kept eating away the pearls like they were little candy. It took the same amount like others, and almost the same time needed for the other artifacts to show their shine.
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
Nearly all of them turned on at the same time. Each gear we had buzzed, flew in the air for a couple of meters and released a halo of energy around.
“Are they… really our artifacts?” The demon moved a couple of steps towards his own gears and held one in hand.
Me and the demoness kept watching him while he examined the sword he got in his big hand. The moment he touched it, I got a strange message from my system.
“Ding Dong! You have acquired an artifact. The artifact will be only active for forty-eight hours then it will return to its dormant state.”
“Damn! That was your dirty plan all along,” I shouted all of sudden, startling my two demons.
“What’s wrong?” the demoness asked with a doubtful look over her face.
“That damn system… it’s playing with us,” I angrily said, “these artifacts will only be available for us for twenty-four hours.”
“That’s… too short!”
“And?” the demoness asked.
“Then we’ll have to restock them with pearls once more.”
“That’s… do you have enough pearls for that?” the demonesse asked and I could only shake my head.
Even my future stock with all the missions I got wouldn’t be enough to make them run all the time.
“That means we need to only activate them as a last resort,” the demoness said.
“But we have them activated now,” the demon said while grabbing all his five pieces, “what should we do now?”
“We’ll make that system feel the bitterness of it,” I determinedly said while turning my eyes towards my artifacts. “Let’s go and crush some nests,” I grabbed my spear and felt the old and familiar power emanating from it.
“Ding Dong! You should help your teams with their missions instead.”
I laughed and totally ignored anything that bastards said. I knew for using the artifacts freely I had to pay more pearls. That was an endless pit for me.
“Let’s go,” I took all the gears I previously scattered before heading outside. It was already late at night, but when I stepped outside the village, a giant shadow loomed over my head.
“Finally you came out.”
I raised my head and glanced at my giant before sighing. I totally forgot everything about our deal. “We… have to make a little detour first,” I said.
“What for?” the demon was impatient to try out his new toys, “shouldn’t we go and crush them now?”
“We will,” I took out my mecha suit and entered into the command, “you two go inside for now.”
I recalled them into the artifact prison of mine without letting the demon have any chance to object. “C’mon, lead me to your friend’s place,”‘ I flew all the way up to the shoulder of the giant, “after that we’ll go and raid over those nasty insects.”
“Are you sure?” The giant seemed quite hesitant, “I know that insects work more aggressively at night.”
“I don’t care,” I held my artifact spears in two hands, “I have new weapons to change the tide of this war. I bet they won’t be able to stand at me.”
“You are the boss,” the giant started to walk, then run, “I’ll follow you and do whatever you ask for.”
We took roughly a couple of hours to reach the place where other giants rested. Like before I used the trap of pearls to lure some out, and this time I didn’t keep my hands like before.
I lured out ten giants at the same time. It seemed risky but with the help of my mecha and giant I managed to get my hands on ten new giants.
“Salute the lady,” the giant said to his new friends, “she is the one who saved us, the one who will keep looking for us.”
“My lady… thanks,” they all bowed their heads and said in a harsh tone. I knew this would be the case for the next few days but later on they would speak freely like my giant here.
“Do you need pearls as well?” I turned to my giant and asked.
I knew he would have one week without the need for my pearls, but I was going to have a very long and hard war soon.
And I wasn’t totally sure about the schemes of my system. He wouldn’t stand at anything but to destroy me.
So imagining I would come at the insects like thunder was a mere fantasy. They were alarmed, and I bet they were preparing everything to meet me and my little elite army up.
But I wasn’t worried about the end result. After all I wasn’t aiming to crush them now but to decrease their numbers to a terrifying degree.
That would buy me more time, and time was something I lacked the most right now.
“Ding Dong! Congratulations on completing the mission. You got ten thousand giant monsters, five thousand units of wood, five thousand units of seeds, five thousand units of ores, plus ten thousand pearls.”
“Ding Dong! Everything is stored inside your inventory. If you want any out you can simply call them out.”
“Ding Dong! Congratulations on completing the mission. You got ten thousand werewolf monsters, five thousand units of wood, five thousand units of seeds, five thousand units of ores, plus ten thousand pearls.”
“Ding Dong! Everything is stored inside your inventory. If you want any out you can simply call them out.”
“Ding Dong! Congratulations on completing the mission. You got ten thousand vampire monsters, five thousand units of wood, five thousand units of seeds, five thousand units of ores, plus ten thousand pearls.”
“Ding Dong! Everything is stored inside your inventory. If you want any out you can simply call them out.”
All of sudden a long row of system notifications kicked in front of my face. I counted almost fifty of them.
“They did it,”‘ I smiled before laughing, “this night is doomed to be my best… In March, we have insect nests to crush.”
“Ding Dong! You know I won’t assign any missions for you about these insects,” the system suddenly said, “Ding Dong! But as you completed fifty missions in no time, then you got the chance to acquire one hundred more.”
“Oh, so generous of you,” I smiled while adding, “assign them to me then.”
