Chapter 1233 1233. Breaching The Wall
Eoranth and Suzaki were still busy with one another when Master arrived at Spring Crown's location.
"Took you long enough," Spring Crown said to Master when he arrived.
"Cut the crap. You know I don't like chit-chat. Just lay it out," Master said curtly.
"Aye, aye, boss!" Spring Crown said exaggeratedly. He then pointed to the distant wall. "The defensive rune diagram here is weaker. They probably don't have enough time to inspect the entire wall of this capital."
Coincidentally, a fireball from one of the flame catapults hit the part of the wall Spring Crown was pointing at.
"See? The vibration on the rune diagram here is stronger when it receives an impact. The glow the rune diagram emitted created a wave that traveled outward faster than the other spots."
Another fireball hit the wall on a different part some distance away.
"See? The one that was hit over there, the vibration is not as strong as the one here," Spring Crown said.
Master saw no such difference, but he would have to admit in this department, Spring Crown was more of a pro. So, he sent a message to Motherboard, who controlled their guild army.
The three nearby catapults readjusted their positions so they all targeted the spot Spring Crown said was weaker. She also had the nearby heavy-ranged units and players send their attacks to the same spot.
After a few minutes, visible cracks could be seen on the wall.
Master glanced at Spring Crown who gave him a gaze that said, 'Told you.'
Master then took something out from his inventory. Now that they had ascertained a weak spot on the wall, he should expedite it. A sudden drop in durability on this part of the wall should draw the enemy's attention. They would be sending their manpower here soon.
The thing that Master took out was an ordinary-looking stone. It was a summoning crystal for a specific monster.
Master used the stone and a monster that was almost as large as Eoranth and Suzaki appeared. It had stony scales all over its body, with huge sharp spines atop its head and all over its back. It was a level 70 mythical-grade Land Behemoth.
The Man and Fierce Flame who were on the wall recognized this monster. It was similar to the titanic monster they first witnessed in the past when they ventured into the wilderness with Jack after they got their advanced classes, except this one was much bigger.
They remembered Peniel said that the one they saw was a young land behemoth. This one here was no doubt the adult version.
The Land Behemoth could be said as the largest monster among the mythical-grade monsters. In terms of physical strength and endurance, it was at the top of the list. It was slow, though. It also lacked powerful skills. It was not exactly an ideal combat monster to be summoned. What it was ideal for was a mobile tank.
Master didn't call it for combatting the defenders. Nor was it as a tank to provide cover for his soldiers. He wanted this monster to serve a different function, a bulldozer.
Master sent a mental instruction to the land behemoth. It then started to move towards the wall. Its movement was slow but unstoppable. It just barged through everything in its path. Even if allies were the ones on its path, it cared not. Nothing stopped its advance.
Without slowing down, it rammed itself onto the wall. The wall shook heavily. The defenders above the wall fell to the floor due to the sudden shaking. More cracks appeared on the wall.
It took a few steps back and then slammed itself back into the wall. It continued to repeat this. All the while the flame catapults continued to target the same spot. The fireballs hit next to where the land behemoth was, damaging the wall and the behemoth as well, but the behemoth paid it no mind. Its rocky scales were extremely tough. It also had a very high resistance to fire. The damage it received was meaningless to its unusually high HP.
Just as Master had predicted, the defenders on the wall started realizing what the invaders were trying to do. They started to flock toward this vulnerable spot.
Queen Frorryntiar in the war room also noticed this when she saw the warning alarm from the 3D projection. The HP of the wall on the part Master was targeting was decreasing extremely fast. She immediately sent commands to the army to deal with this emergency. Bowler also sent a message about the situation to Jeanny, who then relayed orders for those nearby to send help.
However, there was little they could do. Their little attacks only served to irritate the land behemoth. Most of the high-level natives were preoccupied. Many parts had the zombie soldiers successfully climbing the wall and were now engaging the defending soldiers. The ranged attacks from the arrow towers also prevented the defenders from moving freely. To top it off, werebats from World Maker flew to the wall carrying paralyzing bombs. They dropped the bombs on the defenders, further incapacitating the defenders and allowing the zombie soldiers to climb up the wall.
Frorryntiar saw the precariousness of the situation and sent her thoughts to Eoranth. There was no one here that she thought could change the situation other than the lord of dragons.
Eoranth, who was still in fierce combat with Suzaki, turned to where the Land Behemoth was assaulting the wall. He disliked leaving an opponent before making said opponent know that he was the victor, but he knew that the capital he was protecting would be in deep trouble if that wall fell.
"Away with you!" Eoranth roared and gave Suzaki a forceful smack. This sent the firebird reeling.
Suzaki knew she was not Eoranth's equal. She was just buying time as Master asked her to.
Eoranth added another soul breath that sent Suzaki stumbling to the ground. He then snorted and flew toward the land behemoth.
The land behemoth was still slamming its massive body into the wall with clockwork precision. The cracks on the wall were getting larger and the rune diagram was turning dimmer.
Eoranth slammed himself into the land behemoth when it was about to hit the wall again. The momentum dragged the land behemoth a few distances away from the wall. With his incredible strength, Eoranth lifted the land behemoth and threw it some more distance away.
The heavy body of the land behemoth fell on its back and created a large earthquake.
eaglesnovɐ1,сoМ With its softer belly exposed, Eoranth used his claws to repeatedly pummel the land behemoth. He was intent on finishing this monster fast.
But as he was busy murdering the land behemoth, he heard a commotion from behind. He looked back and saw Suzaki breathing fire onto the wall that the land behemoth was previously assaulting.
"You! Stay away from that wall…!!" Eoranth shouted. He dashed toward Suzaki.
But before he arrived, Suzaki's body glowed with intense brightness. It then burst with a spectacular explosion. Dense fire energy assailed everything within the explosion range.
Eoranth's sharp eyes could see through the brightness. He saw the rune diagram on the wall melted as they expended their last energy. As soon as the rune diagram vanished, the wall was unable to resist the fire and it crumbled.
