Chapter 789. Everlasting Heavenly Legends’ Soldiers Line-Up

“Jet, use it!” John sent a message.

“Is that how you address your elder? You should at least call me uncle Jet,” Jet complained. He was already back from the Village of Peace a while ago. He only had two days left in that village when Jack left, after all. He had caught up to the army and joined the march after returning.

Grace expressed her desire to return as well when she heard about the civil war, but Jack told her not to. It was a rare chance to stay inside the village. Jack told her to not squander it. Jack said that they will take care of this war and asked her to just focus on getting stronger. That way, she would be of greater help to the guild later.

Jet was placed not far from the front line, but not too close to get hit by Arther’s devastating blow just now. He was now holding a large crystal high in the air. It was the Water Serpent Summoning Crystal that he and the others had gotten from the gold treasure chest inside the Village of Peace’s lake.

The crystal thrummed with soft blue light. Tendrils of water-like light burst out of the crystal before turning into a large wave. The wave then washed over everyone in a large area. All the allies that were washed by the wave had their HPs refreshed, while all the hostiles received damage and were pushed back a long way.

Arther resisted the pushback. He stood his ground. He then found himself face to face with a gargantuan water serpent covered by brilliant blue scales. The serpent’s two blue glowing eyes stared at the Lord Marshall before it. Two watery orbs were floating at the end of its two long whiskers, which were waving around beside its gigantic head. There were currents of water swirling around the serpent, as if its existence demanded water to always be present.

“Hah! So, you dare to oppose the crown prince just because of this? I will smash this serpent and destroy your people’s hope!” Arther roared as he charged at the water serpent. He used Holy Incarnation, his body mass doubled and was covered by silver flame.

The water serpent was not intimidated. Despite its opponent being ten levels higher, it had a draconic bloodline. It would never back down from the challenge of a lesser being. It roared and a water sphere formed before it. This water sphere then slammed onto the charging Arther. Violent energy exploded upon their impact. Arther’s charge was stopped.

The serpent’s whiskers then slashed out. The two watery orbs at their ends glowed and shot bursts of high-pressure jets of water. Anything the water jets cut through received high damage. Some native soldiers who were already low in HP were literally cut apart by the water jet when their HP zeroed. Arther’s body zoomed around as his transparent wings flapped, evading the water jets that were targeting him.

While Arther was preoccupied with the water serpent, John tried to patch his formation. However, Arther’s army also had plenty of other high-level officers. Many special elite and rare elite natives above level 50 took points to break through the defensive front line.

“This is the time to give it your all, ladies and gentlemen. Do not hold anything back,” John said to the other leaders beside him. “Your war contribution points will pay back all that you lost here!”

Of course, John was only spouting nonsense. He didn’t exactly know that to be the truth. However, seeing that John had used such a valuable resource that summoned a level 70 mythical creature for this battle, the others couldn’t help but believe his claim. They instructed their people to also used their summoning crystals.

Soon, many gigantic summoned creatures started appearing in the battle. None was as impressive as the water serpent, of course. These summoned creatures tried to hold down these high-level officers while the players held the average soldiers.

“Is it time yet?” Prideful Josh asked.

John looked at the right side of the enemies that had now started clashing, both armies were now fighting along a long diagonal line.

“Send them in!” John uttered.

The others quickly sent the command. Not long after, a legion of around 17,000 guild soldiers from the seven guilds appeared from behind the hills on the right side of the battlefield. Because the native army was now fighting in a diagonal line facing the left, this legion of guild-trained soldiers came up to their rear.

At the head of these guild-trained soldiers were five large armored vehicles. Those were the Ice Cannon Tanks, created from the blueprint given by Wilted Tree. Everlasting Heavenly Legend had leveled up their blacksmith workshop to level 4. With Kirsi’s Basic Master grade blacksmith, she had helped craft these five tanks.

Inside these tanks were two players who had trained to pilot the vehicles. One in charge of driving, the other in charge of its weapons, in which there were two, the ice cannon and ice gun. The ice cannon shot a thick beam of ice energy, dealing high damage as well as a high chance to freeze and slow the enemies, but it had a long cooldown. The ice gun shot ice bullets that dealt lesser damage but could be used continuously.

The tank itself, other than possessing a high defense, also had an ice shield that protect it from any attack. One needed to first break this ice shield before causing any damage to the tank. If the tank didn’t receive damage for a period, the ice shield would start to regenerate. This meant that to destroy the tank, one need to continuously assault the tank without a long pause.

The five Ice Cannon Tanks initiated the offensive by firing their ice cannons. Five huge beams swept the rear side of Arther’s army, freezing and slowing many. The bandit archers stayed behind these tanks and attacked as they advanced, using fire and movement tactics.

The guild-trained soldiers soon crashed into the enemies.

Since Arther’s army was facing left, many at its rear were fragile ranged and magic soldiers. They were very surprised by this sudden back attack. They could no longer support their front line. Arther’s army now had to deal with battles on two fronts.

Within the guilds’ trained soldiers, Everlasting Heavenly Legends had the highest count of troops, numbering 2770 soldiers, not including the five Ice Cannon Tanks. These 2770 soldiers were comprised of 700 squires, 500 bandit archers, 300 imperial knights, 350 cavalries, 300 mages, 300 devout healers, 150 eagle rider hunters, 120 blood counts, and 50 twilight champions.

The Devout Healer was a variant of the Healer unit. It was modified by an insignia that Bowler had gotten from his league faction, Church of Creation. These variant healers were more effective in healing. Their heal spells also covered a longer distance compared to normal healer units.

It was daytime now, so the blood count units didn’t show their best potential, but they were still deadly as they weaved around the battlefield in shadows, taking out those with low HPs.

In the short two weeks of the march, Everlasting Heavenly Legends had managed to train fifty Twilight Champions. Jack had teleported back every time the marching army was close to a town, so that he could buy the training boost using his merit points. This had helped the guild in rushing the training of these champions.

Even though they only had fifty units, these champions shone at the front line. They cast a living shield that revolved around their body, automatically defending attacks that came their way. In a similar fashion, they cast another spell that summoned a living sword that slashed any enemies in range. They could also conjure darts that struck enemies far away. This unit excelled in both melee and ranged, offense and defense. They were all-around high-class units.

Leading the troops of Everlasting Heavenly Legends was the hero, Uruk. He now donned different equipment from before. Jack had given him a full set of super rare equipment. The hero was level 62 now. He raged as he led the twilight champions ravaging through the enemy’s healers and mages.

But the most impressive was the huge figure flying high above the guild-trained soldiers. It was Penny, the matured lava dragonet that was Everlasting Heavenly Legends’ guild guardian. Because the girls had put such attention on her, she had grown into a powerful adult lava dragonet. Her level was level 60 and it had attributes higher than normal.

Not only that, this time Peniel was not wrong, the lava dragonet had upgraded from its youngling grade which was rare elite, into a mythical grade when it matured. This guild guardian was now raining lava breath at the enemy army below as she flew past.

When the other guilds saw the line-up of Everlasting Heavenly Legends’ force, they made a mental note to never offend this guild. Especially the guilds who used to be in the coalition. They were now congratulating themselves that they had changed sides.
