Chapter 1722 - 1722. Ice and Darkness
As the three dragons were tussling up there in the air, the allied forces crashed into the wall. The mobile fortress also advanced with the vanguard troops. The siege weapons on the fortress added to the damage of the wall while its rune tree's effect helped the vanguard troops stay alive.
While that happened, the fleet led by John also advanced. Before, the ships stayed at the periphery of the siege weapons range to avoid heavy damage to the ships. Now, they went for the full offense.
All ships advanced until their cannons could hit the wall and they fired. They had to suffer the defenders' retaliation but that was now of little concern. The crews used defensive skills and spells to protect the ships as the shells from the siege weapons rained on them.
A chilling breath hit the water and turned it into ice. Ships that happened to be around this frozen water lost their mobility and became sitting ducks for the siege weapons.
The breath came from zombie Zorvis. She took flight once the fleet advanced. Her breath only froze a tiny portion of the lake. A majority of the ships were still free. She was now casting a spell to freeze even more water.
A pitch-black beam struck her then. The beam interrupted her casting and caused her to stumble. The damage she suffered was little, though. Even after becoming a zombie, her defense was still insanely high. She turned to the one who had sent the black beam to her. It was a dragon as black as night.
The black dragon was Jygorth, Sangrod's country guardian. When Jack and Four Winds summoned their country guardians, Horatio did the same. Except he sent Jygorth to fight Zorvis, giving the allied fleet the chance to wreck the northern wall.
"Zorvis... Never expected to see you like this...," Jygorth uttered.
Zorvis didn't respond. She roared while casting a spell. Ten icy spiked balls were formed. These balls were flung in Jygorth's direction while she advanced. Her diamond skin glistened as the ice covering it thickened. These ice armor expanded and formed long and sharp spikes. She was as if wearing a suit full of ice spikes.
"Hmph! Let me release you from your suffering," Jygorth said. A sphere of darkness covered her body. He then shot forward.
When she was about to cast another spell, the ice directly below her cracked. A gigantic black drill shot through that crack and impaled Zorvis. Her hardened ice suit resisted the drill but she was pushed up into the air from the force. Many cracks appeared on her ice suit as the drill continued to spin.
She forcefully smacked the black drill from the side and managed to tear herself away from the drill. Half of her ice suit was torn as a result.
Following the black drill was a black ball shooting out of the water. When Zorvis freed herself from the drill, this black ball slammed into her, throwing her further up into the air. This black ball was Jygorth. His Sphere of Svalinn was still protecting him.
After successfully sending Zorvis away, Jygorth continued his assault up there, keeping Zorvis from coming back to the lake.
"Good! Now, let us return our focus on destroying that wall," John ordered.
"Boss, there is a strange fog behind us," John received a message from Will Corner.
John looked back. He was on the flagship's bridge but the radial screens on the bridge covered a three-hundred-and-sixty-degree view around the ship. He saw the fog Will mentioned.
This fog wasn't there before the battle began. It didn't look natural. He observed the fog while searching for something within Hope's knowledge that could explain the fog's existence.
His brow suddenly creased.
"Aw, crap...," he cursed. He immediately sent commands to the fleet, telling them to get into a formation to prepare for an assault from their rear.
