Chereads / Eternal Bible / Chapter 4 - Otherworld

Chapter 4 - Otherworld

Seeing Zaiden so dispirited, both Angelica and Irene felt their hearts ache. In the living room, they decided to comfort him.

Just as Irene was about to say something, a spacial crack appeared at the centre of the room. Before the three of them could react, they were dragged into it with even the chance to resist.

Before long, the spacial crack disappeared and the room returned back to normal.

Just that the three of them were nowhere to be seen.

Somewhere.

"Ouch!"

Angelica woke up and rubbed her head. She felt a slight pain in her head. The last thing she saw was a spacial crack appearing and dragging her in.

Immediately she realised that Zaiden and Irene must have been dragged along as well.

She looked around and was shocked to see Zaiden and Irene next to her.

The shocking thing wasn't their presence but the position in which they were.

Angelica saw that Zaiden was lying on the floor while Irene was on top of him. Her nose was almost touching his.

Her breast were pressed by Zaiden's chest. Their body was just too close. They looked at each other without moving.

Angelica came back to her senses and pushed Irene away from Zaiden.

"What are you doing?"

Irene complained annoyingly. But seeing Angelica's glare see didn't say much. Instead she changed the topic.

"Where are we?"

Hearing her question, everyone looked around only to find themselves in a worn out hall. It had a western style but of the mediaeval age.

Before they could speak something, a cold mechanical voice rang out in their heads.

[ Welcome, humans from trillions of different planets, to the Otherworld. Here, your job is to conquer all and become the strongest. ]

[ You will begin with a Basic Castle and will be assigned a Military Summoning Structure randomly. ]

[ Only by becoming stronger could you obtain what you truly wish. Immortality is just the beginning. ]

[ The first test, The Beast Tide, will begin in seven days. Until then enjoy the seven-day newbie protection period. ]

[ I hope to see everyone ascending towards the top. ]

As the voice faded away. Zaiden and the others looked at each other in shock. But before they could utter a word, another voice sounded in their mind.

[ A malfunction in the origin detected! As a compensation, you will receive a unique military structure, Eternal Bible! ]

Zaiden didn't saw that coming. In fact, he didn't knew that only a single person was chosen from each planet. Even then, the number reached trillions.

But accidently, Zaiden was summoned along with Angelica and Irene. Thus as a compensation, he received a unique military structure.

Zaiden looked at the two girls and sighed.

"Look, although it might be hard for you to believe all this but right now we need to increase our strength. We only have seven days to prepare."

Angelica and Irene looked at Zaiden in shock but after sometime, they both nodded.

"Then lets check out what we have."

Zaiden and the two girls moved around this old castle. Before long they reached the so-called military structure.

It was a pool like structure with an altar at the centre. The pool had a radius of five meters. On the altar was a book. It looked old but gave out an ancient aura.

As Zaiden looked at the structure. An interface containing rows of words appeared in Zaiden's sight.

[ Military Structure : Eternal Bible (Unique) ]

[ Level : 1 ]

[ Can summon a random military unit per day. ]

[ Upgrade Requirements : 100 Magic Stones, 1 Magic Crystal ]

Zaiden looked surprised to see such a function. He looked towards the two girls but he felt that they couldn't see it.

Thus he ignored it and decided to check his own interface.

[ Castle Lord : Zaiden ]

[ Strength : Tier 1 Level 0 ]

[ Units Summoned : None ]

Again he thought about something and looked at the castle. A similar panel appeared again.

[ (Unnamed) ]

[ Castle Level : Basic Castle ]

[ Upgrade Requirements : 2000 units of wood and 1000 units of stone ]

[ Basic Buildings : Warehouse ]

[ Military Buildings : Eternal Bible (Unique) ]

[ Next Upgrade : Intermediate Castle ]

Zaiden nodded his head as he understood some parts of what strength he had. At the same time he realised a few additional functions as well.

They were [ World Chat ] and [ Trade Centre ].

The former was a function where all the so-called chosen could talk and interact with each other. The latter was obviously for, as it's name suggest, trading.

Zaiden shook his head as he didn't want to use these functions just yet.

Instead he looked at his unique military structure. It also means that it was only him that would have such a military structure.

[ Do you want to summon a random military unit? ]

"Summon."

Without hesitation, Zaiden chose to summon.

In the next minute, a bright and dazzling light was emitted from the pool. The book on the altar open and the pages started to change at a rapid pace.

Zaiden and the two girls immediately covered their eyes with their hands. As the light slowly faded away, he looked in front of him.

A total of fifty soldiers appeared in front of him.

[ One Unit Of Infantry Summoned. ]

[ Kill monsters to level up. ]

As the name suggests, the fifty of them were holding spears and were in a low-grade equipments.

He looked at them and an interface appeared.

[ Infantry ]

[ Units : 1 ]

[ Strength : Tier 3 Level 1 ]

[ Potential : Unknown ]

[ Loyalty : 100 (Cannot reduce) ]

[ Equipments level ups along with their strength. ]

Zaiden didn't thought that they would be this strong just after they were summoned. Before he could be more shocked from seeing their potential, the fifty infantry came forward and knelt in front of Zaiden. They said in unison.

"We await your orders, My Lord."

Zaiden felt a little embarrassed but then he thought about the earlier information. He ordered.

"Go out and hunt as many monster as you can. But remember, if the situation goes awry, retreat immediately."

The fifty infantry saluted and marched out of the light barrier disappearing into the forest.
