I Can Make Everything Level UP

Chapter 554 Morons (2)

　　 Although those creatures and the riders were as vicious as they could be when they weren't fighting, there wasn't much sign of that. They marched toward the base like they were an army of robots… It was quite weird. Much for Billy's annoyance, it seemed that their base was pretty far away. He followed them until noon of the next day, and he had to stop because he was low on fuel again. He had improved the cores, but only about five percent over those two weeks.

　　"Their traces will probably get cold over the next week, but they headed in a straight line toward West, so it shouldn't be impossible to find them again…" Billy thought.

　　 Billy had already accomplished something insane, making his armor fly that fast. Still, he was already thinking that he should learn Teleport. He was about to find new skills that cost 900 skill points, and he was hoping that he could find Teleport or the shadow clone technique there… In any case, he was forced to return home.

　　 Once again, Billy's wives frowned since he returned a lot sooner than expected. They couldn't imagine that Billy would have a hard time finding someplace to hide his armor. Still, they could guess that he was being absolutely careful to keep his work hidden from the possible enemies.

　　"Did you check what you wanted?" Kate asked.

　　"Yeah… It was just a false alarm," Billy replied after a long sigh. "The next time I won't bother with something so stupid."

　　 They didn't know what Billy was talking about, but they could guess that he was tired. Billy forgot to mention about his discoveries. Even if they were accidental, it was better than nothing. However, he decided to leave that for another day since it was dinner time, and there was no point in making the dinner with his family gloomy.

　　 Christina was happy that her papa was back and could spoil her again and Hector looked pleased in his own way. In the end, Billy enjoyed as much time as possible with them. After that, he put Helen to sleep alongside Sarah. She was almost six months old, so she could recognize him. However, she didn't react much to Billy's silliness, like his armpit farts or his face. She didn't have a deadpan expression like Hector had, though.

　　 The next day, Billy began to work on the other armors, but he had to stop early in the morning since he saw the two morons at his gate. In the end, Billy shouldn't show too much of his anger since they would feel suspicious.

　　"You don't look as pissed as I had imagined… It kids of worrisome," Icarus said.

　　"I figured out that something happened and that ended up breaking the communication device, something like a fight," Billy said. "The next one will cost you twenty gold coins."

　　"I suppose it can't be helped, I made a mistake, after all," Icarus said and then paid Billy the coins, but he frowned since the next device was made in less than two minutes.

　　"Well, let's go to that hideout," Billy declared. "You can give me the details there."

　　 Billy more or less what had happened, but he kept his poker face during the conversation. He wasn't that dependent on them to gather Intel anymore. However, they still could give him some insight and information that might escape him.

　　 Basically, the morons fought the invisible guys and were captured almost instantly since they used a gas bomb that paralyzed their nerves. After three days, that tribe confirmed that they weren't working with anyone since they had some magic tools that helped them read their minds… Billy had never heard of such a tool, but it could be really helpful.

　　 In any case, they agreed to cooperate with that tribe in exchange for some Intel, but only after informing Billy of what had happened. Truth to be told, that wasn't a bad idea, and Billy couldn't care less how those gather Intel. However, their bundle made their existence known to a tribe, and eventually, others will learn about them as well.

　　"You guys know that it is only a matter of time before the necromancer learns that humans have been spotted on his continent, because of your stupidity, right?" Billy asked.

　　"That may be so, but we heard a few things from the demi humans, that in the last few years, some individuals are building massive armies to take over the continent," Icarus said. "The biggest one is northwest of the place we were held. It is the best place for us to start our search."

　　 It was the same direction Billy followed in that army. So, it wasn't a coincidence. Nevertheless, it would be better if those two were to gather more Intel about other regions and of the demi-humans. However, ignoring such information would be weird.

　　"What is your plan?" Billy asked.

　　"I was planning to discuss this with you and Lucyna," Icarus replied.

　　"Since it is a possible enemy that has an army, we can't careless approach," Lucyna said. "It wouldn't be weird if they have lookouts around the area to prevent ambushes and night raids. Since they attack often other tribes, they need to do that much to prevent their base being destroyed while the main base is away."

　　"You certainly thought things through," Billy said.

　　"I spent many years fighting the army of an entire state, after all," Lucyna said.

　　 And not making much progress… Billy thought that, but he didn't say that out loud. Nevertheless, Billy wasn't against those ideas, and Lucyna's experience probably would prevent them from making mistakes. Still, if the enemy captures them… Billy was struggling again in considering the possibility of giving them the rings that would land the last hit once they were about to do. If he stays in enemy territory for a few days, he probably won't hesitate in making those, but he couldn't bring himself to do it at home… He wouldn't be able to look at his kids the same way.
