Rioneed: VRMMORPG

Ibro didn't order his skeletons to attack that moleecian monster, but he ordered them to attack those who were in a heated battle with the crazy cultivators. 

They were hardly holding them back. By the addition of Ibro's skeletons, that balance was broken at once. Ibro was prepared for this moment. 

The logical move was to hold that angry moleecian, but he chose to kill those away from him first. His choice was obvious to everyone. He was planning to help his allies so they would help him after. 

That incident after the other gave hope again to the incoming cultivators. They didn't waste the chance Ibro created for them. In a few minutes, they managed to kill all the moleecians around them with the help of the endless skeletons. 

Although these skeletons were weak, they had different classes in them. They also had some strong skeletons like that alpha death knight. That death knight played a major role in ending this fight very rapidly. 

Once this move succeeded, Ibro felt more confident in his ability to overturn the table over the moleecians.

Although the last remaining moleecian tried to fly more than once towards Ibro, he was always heavily attacked by arrows and techniques. This made him lose his balance and landed at once. 

Ibro's army of skeletons was divided into two major sections. One part defended against the attacks of these monsters and the other part moved with the alpha death knight to attack the remaining moleecian. 

Once that moleecian knew that everything was lost, he started to fly away. He didn't move for a few hundred meters to be suddenly surrounded by a ball of dark green energy. A panic expression appeared over his face. 

Ibro noticed that the cultivators he rescued had stopped in their tracks. In front of him, that moleecian moved to the sky with an invisible traction force. 

His screams were loud and reverberated throughout the whole battlefield. After a few minutes, everything regained its calm. Ibro didn't know what exactly happened, so he looked towards those cultivators. 

The two groups of cultivators had met together now, so Ibro headed towards them. His skeletons moved at once to join the upfront battle in unison, leaving a wide stretch of land where Ibro and those cultivators met.

"Thanks my fellow cultivator for saving us," one of them spoke thanking Ibro. Ibro didn't reject this as he said:

"It's just a normal thing to help each other. I'm sorry but where is this place? And what was that spot of light in the sky?"

The cultivator who thanked him replied at once:

"This is a long story. Can we speak while we are on our way?"

Ibro looked strangely at him while asking:

"Where are we going?"

"We have a temporary base in the south from here. we can chat while moving there."

Ibro noticed they flew in the air, so he said at once:

"What about my army? What about these monsters?"

"These monsters would keep coming infinitely. We have been in war with them for uncountable years. We didn't manage to decrease their numbers. 

Leave your army behind; it would be a burden for you. Anyway, you aren't allowed to stay here except when you join one of our bases. We don't accept any otherwolder like you with his army."

Ibro got a lot of information from them. He didn't accept the idea of letting go of all of his efforts to be wasted like this. He also didn't trust going to a strange forte without his army. He said in a calm tone:

"I'm so sorry, I can't leave my army."

The cultivator seemed not to be surprised by Ibro's decision. Instead, he sighed in deep regret. He pointed out towards the stick which was lying away from them as he spoke:

"Do you see this skull? It came from some otherworlder like you. He died here when he refused to join one of our camps. I'm not pressuring you, but you helped to save our life so I owed you. 

The enemy here is far stronger than you might think. We are only watching guards for our posts. We have far stronger cultivators as the enemy has. You can't survive here alone. 

You aren't the only otherworlder that appears here. There were countless otherworlders before you, and there will be more countless who will come in the future. Don't throw your life like that, we mean no harm to you."

Although he had good intentions towards Ibro, Ibro didn't change his mind. This cultivator was only a lowly cultivator in his camp. What if one of the higher-ups decided to kill Ibro? He would die with no doubt. 

Although he understood how dangerous this place was, he still had a chance to struggle alongside his armies.

"Thanks again for your kindness, but I still refuse. I will stay here with my boys."

The cultivator didn't try to convince him again. He just shook his head in regret then he said:

"As a token of my gratitude, I will give you a warning. This world lies under the control of 10 big powers from our side and 10 powers from the enemy side. These powers are always in constant wars. 

The nearest hot warzones from here are to the south, north, and east. The west is your safest place for now, although the places of warzones can change at any time, that won't happen soon. 

You should be safe for a long time. If you ever changed your mind anytime, then feel free to come to our fort in the south. I hope to see you again alive."

Ibro nodded his head in gratitude. He watched these cultivators move at once in the air. He kept watching them till they disappeared in the south. Ibro then started to think about his options. 

While he was in deep thoughts, the alpha death knight came on his huge horse holding the stick. He handed the stick to Ibro then he returned to join the battle. 

Ibro held the stick feeling the connection between him and this skull becoming stronger. He now knew the reason behind it. This skull belonged to another death sorcerer. 

He noticed the normal attitude of those cultivators towards him. That was different from what he experienced in the previous world. He didn't think much, as his mind was busy about something else.

'System, what do you need to unlock your next features?'

'System needs you to upgrade your power at technical and cultivation systems. You also need to acquire a new supreme energy and raise your power at it.'

'I know all of that already. That will be a long term solution. Right now I have no time to do that. Are there any other options?'
