Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel-Chapter 200 Railgun And Barrier
The whale tribesmen standing behind Selerc became furious instantly. But none of them moved, instruction had already been passed on to not move harshly in this meeting.
Airell and Neiren, the son of Selerc, sported dark looks. Selerc himself looked gloomy hearing the words spoken by Zick.
'To work for me? More like come become my slaves.' Selerc scoffed in his mind.
Zick continued speaking, closely looking at their expression: "I don't need all your tribesmen to work for me, and neither will I try to change or stick my nose in their lives. What I want is only the strong, your soldier to follow my orders."
There was no need to spell out what would happen if the whale tribesmen rejected Zick's offer.
A feeling of helplessness and shame rose within Selerc. He was a prideful man, but he wasn't an idiot either. If he made a decision based on personal emotions, that would be just plain foolishness.
"What are you planning on making us do?" Selerc in a low voice, his face having a slight unwillingness.
But Zick was not interested in Selerc's state of mind at all: "You don't have to know. So what is your answer?" 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗novel.𝐜o𝒎
Silence descended upon the shores, with all the whale tribesmen now looking at the ground with desolateness.
Zick stepped all over them, but they could not retaliate in the slightest. This was the power of strength, no matter the situation, it would always prevail above everything.
With clenched hands, selerc opened his mouth: "Okay, we agree to..."
Zick raised his hand, stopping Selerc from speaking further.
"Contract." Zick spat out coldly. Like he would ever trust anyone's word totally.
Unit one moved forward to make the contract instead of Zick, he was wary of any sudden attacks. 𝙛𝚛𝙚ewe𝗯𝓃𝗼ѵ𝚎Ɩ.𝒄o𝐦
Making a slave contract, Selerc looked even more gloomy. Not only he, but all his tribesmen would also die the moment he betrayed Zick. A contract connecting thousands of people was rare, but it still existed.
Selerc would have fought back if Zick only had Unit one, but he had another monster beside him, Yuriel. It was apparent that the whale tribe would be wiped out if they offended such a force.
"You can live on as you were thus far. When the time comes, I will call you through this." Zick tossed a black handbook to Selerc.
Having completed what he wanted, Zick did not waste his time and teleported back within the fortress in the air.
Slowly the fortress began moving towards the middle of the Eastern section of the continent.
Sitting on the couch, Zick turned to Yuriel and smiled. Yuriel moved into his embrace without a word.
'I should not neglect her should I?'
.....
Three days later.
Zick seriously trained in the aura all this time.
Arianell, who had woken up, was eating some fruit salad on Zick's lap as he concentrated on training.
Zick was still in the fortress, there was nothing serious occurring in the Hevertec kingdom yet. He continued to be hailed as a savior and won goodwill by making more cures.
Opening his eyes, Zick breathed loudly and let his body relax.
What he is using right now was an elixir. Which could boost his mana absorption by more than 30 folds. But this effect only lasts for three days.
Zick, who trained three days straight, felt some fatigue. His mind was exhausted to the limit, he felt a little sleepy too.
These three days of training were equal to 90 days for Zick. He had to concentrate harder too as the elixir boosted his natural absorption rate.
Taking out some test tubes filled with glistening blood, Zick chugged them down his throat. Feeling himself being strengthened further, he waited for the process to be completed.
Zick had not fully extracted the potential from Aeiron, needing him alive. But he did not need to care about the others.
Most of the mermaid tribesmen were sacrificed in this. There was no one with grand master strength in this tribe, thus it did not hold much value to Zick.
With such boosts, Zick estimated he would reach peak master in two weeks. And grandmaster rank in two years.
It was quite a leap compared to before.
'Though the creation of this elixir, which can boost my mana absorption rate is really hard. It requires a monster named soul sucker, which is almost extinct.'
Soul suckers, they sucked in the mana of their surroundings to live. They have a special ability that lets them even suck the mana and life essence of their opponent.
Taking some stamina potions, Zick drank them all and began harmonizing with the mana around him. He could feel that reaching Archmage would take several years if he took the normal route.
However, Zick was not worried. His mage profession would receive an immense boost when he eats the dragons.
"Silver wing system. Show me the result of the Experiment code-named brainwash." Zick said while still harmonizing with the mana.
A genie with the mature appearance of a woman appeared before Zick. A genie was set up in the fortress too as it was just too complicated to be controlled manually. And this one was connected to the secret lab too, thus it was possible to control things in there from the fortress.
"Results: Failure. The cause is speculated to be the soul's resistance." The genie's mechanical voice rang out.
"What a letdown..." If it was possible to brainwash, Zick would have had most of his problems settled.
"What about experiment number 0-6?" Zick closed his eyes, putting more concentration on training.
"Human subject dead by deformation."
"Experiment number 0-23?"
"Success."
"Experiment code-named species evolution?"
"Death by blood cell failure."
Having such an exchange, time went by quickly.
In the evening.
Zick stopped training for a while to let himself relax. Instead, he concentrated on other things.
"How many wraiths have been created till now?" Zick inquired to the genie.
"Mid grade: 70,360 and low grade: 320,792."
Zick nodded his head, finding the number somewhat satisfactory.
"How is the research on high-grade wraith going then?" Zick held Arianell in his hand and moved before the screens.
"75℅ completed." Genie intoned.
"I see."
Zick's eyes moved to the screen on the right. What it displayed was a huge teleportation circle that was being created right now. And on the screen below it, a green core was being constructed by golems.
This green core function was to create an impregnable barrier around the fortress. Though the fortress was already sturdy, it would still take high damage if a grandmaster-level entity attacked.
This shield could easily block even a full-power attack from an upper-stage grandmaster.
As for the teleportation circle, it was connected to the middle continent.
A massacre was going to occur there and this time the whole continent would be taken over by Zick. No kingdom or empire will be spared.
'With that many sacrifices, three or four Biological would be made for sure.' Zick was not against this at all. Rather, he was looking forward to it.
The middle continent would be fully taken over and used as a ground for thousands of experiments. It would be one of Zick's main bases.
The whole fortress had to be teleported, so some extra effort had to be put into creating the teleportation circle.
'Well, I am planning on launching the attack in the morning anyway.' Zick turned to the screen in the middle.
A huge cannon could be seen being constructed on it. It had the appearance of a railgun, but had a box-shaped barrel and was more than eighty meters long.
'With this, I should be able to blow many of the demonic races' bases. Even the barrier around the demon king's abode would be blown away by this.'
Zick smiled with bad intentions.
'They wouldn't even notice who hit them, hehehe.'
Still, it was being constructed and many more materials were needed. That was the reason Zick hastened the preparation to attack the middle continent.
'Nurturing those people is also important....' Zick felt troubled thinking on this subject.
It was a kind of gamble, after all. He wasn't sure if all the pawns chosen by him could reach the grandmaster rank — before the demonic race attacked.
'It would be disappointing if they don't...' Zick put a lot of his effort into this matter.
Getting up and Picking Arianell in two hands, Zick began lifting her up and down.
Arianell smiled brightly and laughed softly as Zick played with her.
'She is growing fast too....both in strength and body.' Zick said while looking at Arianell who was laughing happily. She appeared 7 to 8 years old right now.
After playing for a while, Arianell sitting on Zick's shoulder — headed to their room.
'Being a father is fun but I wonder if this relationship will last for long...' Zick knew that everything came to an end sooner or later.
To be able to attain something forever, Eternal life is the only way. Only by becoming invincible can things cannot be taken away from you.
'Reality is always cruel. I am willing to be cruel to both myself and others. I will not stop till I reach my goal, I will sacrifice everything to reach it.' Zick placed Arianell on the bed.
