Jerry didn’t waste his breath on lectures and decided to show them Athena’s power.
“It’s normal for you to have doubts. How about this? You can choose anyone you want to fight with Athena.
“If any of you can defeat Athena, I will make the person the general and lead the army,” Jerry said.
Everyone in the camp stirred when they heard this. They all looked at Athena.
She’s just a woman. Who can’t beat her?
17
And…
If I could touch such a beautiful woman…
“Hehehe…”
There were many soldiers In the barracks who had not seen a woman for years, and they looked at Athena with a kind of indescribable meaning in their eyes.
1
If I can get up there and fight her, not only will I be a general, I can also have a chance to grope her!
1
Who wouldn’t want that?
As a result, lots of them wanted to try and even started toward her.
Jerry wasn’t afraid. He picked some of the soldiers who looked the strongest among them and put them up against Athena.
But the result was as expected. Yeah, Athena wasn’t like those gods who were born solely for the war, such as Ares, Zeus, etc.
2
However, her title of goddess of war meant that her strength was definitely at the top-tier among the immortals!
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been called the goddess of war!
Even though she was weakened by the system, it was still very easy for her to deal with these mortals.
Therefore, the result of the battle was very obvious. Among the 3,000 soldiers, the guys who were among the strongest in personal combat couldn’t even last a few moves against Athena.
Athena even put on a good show of fighting ten of them at the same time! It was clear that she wasn’t using her full strength.
Jerry was a little shocked. So this was the strength of a mythical figure?
Even Athena was so powerful. What about Ares, Zeus, Poseidon and others?
2
Wouldn’t they be ten times stronger?
In an instant, Jerry had a sudden urge in his heart!
War, he wanted to start a war. As long as he took a city, even if it was a small city, he would get a chance to summon another mythical figure!
3
And if he took a medium city, he would get three figures! This temptation was too hard to resist.
1
At that moment, Jerry decided to go back and prepare for a war.
Athena successfully took over the army. At the same time, Jerry also told her that a month later, there would be a war, so she must get the army ready as soon as possible.
Athena nodded respectfully, her heart in joy. She also wanted to make her name in this new world.
Creating a powerful empire from a small city was very awesome, right?
After returning to the city lord’s manor, Jerry logged off.
A light flashed in front of his eyes, and Jerry left Sky City and the Empire Era, returning to the real world.
Slowly opening his eyes, Jerry was in a trance. In the blink of an eye, he had returned to the modern world from an ancient world. The transition made him feel strange.
“Jerry, are you up?”
His mother’s voice sounded from outside the door.
“I’m up!”
Jerry immediately got up to eat breakfast. The flow of time in the Empire Era was the same as on Earth. However, its day and night were reversed.
When it was day here, it was night in the Empire Era.
Moreover, if he entered the Empire Era at night, the time he spent in there was sleep in reality. Therefore, when he woke up in the real world, he was full of energy, as if he had had a deep sleep and a dream.
“How was it, Little Luo? How did it feel to enter the Empire Era for the first time?”
While eating, his father looked at Jerry and asked.
Before Jerry could reply, he said with great pity, “”Sigh, back then, I was only the city Lord for a year before I was annihilated.
“Now, I wonder what it looks like now in the Empire Era.”
His father’s eyes were filled with melancholy as if he was hiding something.
His mother snorted lightly. Clearly, his father had a story back in the Empire Era.
Jerry chuckled and didn’t reply.
He knew that when his father was with his mother back then, they had experienced a lot of setbacks.
His father loved someone in the Empire Era and his mother had chased after his father.
But his father didn’t agree to go out with her. In the end, his father’s city in the Empire Era was destroyed, and his father left the Empire Era.
It was said that he had been devastated for a few years, and his mother stayed by his side. Only then did the two of them get together and gave birth to Jerry.
1
Anyway, Jerry didn’t dare to ask his parents about the details of their love story.
Their story was nothing out of ordinary. In the Empire Era, some people who cared about love would put their whole body and soul into the Empire Era.
1
There were even quite a number of people who had stayed in the Empire Era for many years, attacking cities and building their families.
However, people were not encouraged to fall in love and build family in there.
This was because the vast majority, or even 99.999% of people, were unable to take root in the Empire Era.
It was a cruel place with all the states at war with each other. It was even more horrible than the Warring States Era in China!
7
Hence, if one fell in love in there, one’d be devastated if he had to leave the Empire Era.
2
However, it was hard to describe human feelings with just a few words.
All of this had nothing to do with Jerry. After eating, he was ready to return to the Empire Era.
He had just graduated from high school and he had more than one month before he went to the university.
1
He calculated the time and thought he’d finish the expedition before reporting to the university.
Back in the Empire Era, Jerry began to familiarize himself with administration affairs. Fortunately, it was only a small city. With the modern thinking as well as the countless gaming guides he had gained from internet, he found it easy to manage a city.
Jerry must spent about one month on getting familiar with the administration affairs in the city before starting a war.
After all, war was not something that could be done just by shouting and charging.
In the blink of an eye, nearly a month had passed.
Finally, Sky City was ready to show its muscles to this world!
“Target the Firecloud City next to us, and its three subsidiary cities!”
Jerry looked towards the north, where there was a medium-sized city and three small cities!
Jerry’s goal was to conquer these four cities! If he succeeded, Jerry would get six summoning opportunities!
If he could win this war, he would have the confidence to conquer the world!
