Chapter 1719 1719. Go Full Force

Later that day, Horatio and his additional army arrived, further bolstering the Allied forces. Jack met the vampire emperor and told him about the situation. Horatio agreed to wait for Jack's signal before summoning his country guardian. novelbin

Aside from Sangrod's additional force, Emris was also back with the army. He brought with him several resurrection potions the palace alchemists had concocted.

The bombardment continued as the previous days, albeit at a slower pace. Master, Azzarilth, Zorvis, and other capable players or natives used their defensive abilities to block the bombardment. They couldn't cover every assault, though. The wall's HP continued to decrease.

On the second day since Azzarilth showed up, John sent a message, "They are buying for time."

"Buying time for what?" Jack asked.

"I don't know, but I prefer not to find out," John answered. "They are too diligent in slowing down the wall's decay. They don't look like people who are doing it out of desperation for the inevitable. There is a sense of hope in their action. They are waiting for something."

"Can't you interrogate Gridhacker to find out what he knows?"

"I already did. He didn't know what plan Master and Linda prepared to defend against our force. He didn't even know about Azzarilth. He just knew that Master had secured a new country guardian and that Master was confident that he could win."

"What do you suggest?" Jack asked.

"I suggest we go full force," John answered. "The parts of the wall we are assaulting are already low in HP. If we keep like what we are doing now, we should be able to destroy the wall in two days, or three days top. But if we charge now and focus on one, we can destroy a part of the wall by today."

"We will lose men...," Jack said.

"I know. But if my deduction is correct, we might lose even more men if we wait," John said in return.

"Are you ready?" Jack received John's message.

"I've given the command. Everyone is getting into position. We will advance soon," Jack answered.

"Good. One more thing I want you to know," John said. "I tasked the Dog of War to infiltrate the capital. I originally had them do that in preparation if we need to go full force on the wall like we are about to do now, to have them disrupt the enemy from the inside."

"Originally? So, you are not going to have them do that when we attack?"

"The number that managed to infiltrate the capital covertly is too few. The security around the wall is tighter than expected. Even with their expertise, they have difficulty infiltrating. Only around fifty of their guild members are inside. With such a small number, they won't make a difference. They will just be sacrificing themselves."

"I see. Have them wait until we break the wall then, they can join the battle once that happens," Jack said.

"No, I've altered their mission. They are to map a safe path to where Jeanny and the others are imprisoned. You said they are at one of the palace's balconies, didn't you? Can you make sure they are still at the same place?"

"I will use my staff's Eye of Surveillance again to make sure," Jack said.

"Good. Hopefully, they are still there. It's better to save Jeanny and the others while we still know where they are. Even if we win this war, Master might prepare an escape route and take them away. We better save them before that."

"I agree. I prefer they aren't held captive a second longer," Jack said.

"The Dogs of War will work their way there. They will let you know the path. Once you have the chance, try to sneak over. I doubt Master leaves normal guards to look after those captives. The Dogs of War will wait for you before they make their move. I'm sure Master will run back once he hears someone try to free those three. We will only have a short time to save them, so we will need someone with the highest firepower. You are the best candidate with the highest success chance for the task."

"Leave it to me!" Jack exclaimed.

"Just make sure Master didn't see your intention," John reminded.
