Chapter 1724 - 1724. Contract Stone

While the battle in the sky and the lake was raging, the allied armies didn't stay idle. They continued their effort to break the wall. Due to the massive number of armies that stormed the wall, the defenders were unable to block every spot. In some parts, the allied soldiers successfully climbed the wall, but these soldiers were immediately met with heavy resistance from the Liguritudum's special units.

These soldiers were ganged up on and were either quickly killed or thrown off from the wall. Even so, their sacrifice caused the defenders to spare less attention in defending the wall. Without the defensive skills to block the attack from the siege weapons, the gate and the wall's HP deteriorated even faster.

This didn't stop the Allied forces. They were in high morale. The assault was finally carried out for real after several days of waiting. Furthermore, the Liguritudum troops received multiple debuffs due to the effect of coordinated strike techs. Except for Aurebor, Themisphere had researched the coordinated strikes with the other four countries.

When it was Themisphere soldiers who climbed up the wall, they were able to last longer atop the wall and help more of their comrades to climb up. This was due to their martial expertise. Jack had also spent 20 ruling powers to use War Rally before the vanguard troops advanced, boosting his army's attributes.

When it was a brave champion who arrived on the battlement, the difference was even more obvious. This special unit had a passive skill that strengthened themselves when they were alone or were fighting a disadvantageous battle. The more impossible the battle was, the stronger the buff the brave champion received. Hence, this special unit was able to last the longest compared to others. The original appearance of this chapter can be found at Ñøv€lß1n.

Of course, the commanders of the armies didn't just stay back and wait for the wall to crumble. Arther, Emris, and Meryl advanced with their troops. Makubwa, Helga, Vanessa, Dytess, Ashira, and the other powerful combatants from the six armies all advanced. The pressure felt by the defending army increased as time passed. More and more of the Allied soldiers climbed up the wall.

As if to hammer in the defender's despair, a double explosion of lightning colored the air above the main gate's wall. This lightning spread and hit almost all the Liguritudum force on the battlement without touching the Allied soldiers.

The lightning came from Jack's mana manipulation-empowered Perpetual Lightning Judgement, which was already max-leveled and max-starred. The spell was also double cast under the effect of Remote Magic Field. When the lightning subsided, the battlement above the main gate was mostly cleared. Only some soldiers with high levels survived, but even they were paralyzed on the floor unable to move.

Jack had also double-cast Double Clone before advancing. His four clones were helping at the other parts of the wall.

The level 85 eternal-grade archdemon lord burst out from a dimensional tear next to Jack. Jack had a feeling this one was slightly bigger than the ones he had summoned previously. The magical robe the archdemon lord wore also had more trinkets that glittered with an ominous light.

Master watched the archdemon lord with a flat expression.

"Hahaha!" Jack laughed. "This time, it is you who are on the back foot. How about you just lay down, release the hostages, and save us all from wasting our time?"

"Hmph, fool," Master harrumphed. He then took out a small black disc.

"That... That is a contract stone," Peniel uttered.

"Contract stone? What's its use?" Jack asked.

"It is a consumable item. It is used to bind a part of a native's essence, so the user can summon a clone of that native for a one-day duration."

"... What native do you use it on?" Jack asked Master.

Master simply smiled. The black disc shone before it broke. A gigantic round creature with a huge eye and tentacles around its body appeared beside Master.

"The... The Eldritch Beholder...?!" Jack exclaimed in surprise.
