YM778.TV Chapter 775 - Going Towards The Tower
\'It\'s not that hard,\' Gege suddenly said, \'I thought it would take a lot of time or a lot of resources to do it.\'
The golden dragon just spoke and explained how Arthur could do this array. In simple words he only needed to mix his blood with some materials from the garden world.
Then he would use his finger to form a circular array on the tower for each hand of his. He would place his hands over each circle before finally activating the array.
\'It\'s simple in starting it, but it\'s main risk lies in the absolute rule of not moving or breaking it until the energy is totally absorbed.\'
The words of the golden dragon made Gege silent. Everyone knew how hard that would be. There were a lot of rooms of error, making this task something close to being suicidal.
"I\'m confident they can hold the lycans away," Arthur said in an attempt to raise the morales.
\'Ding! Don\'t depend entirely on them,\' the system warned, \'Ding! This mission can explode in many ways than you can account for.\'
Arthur knew his system was telling the truth, but sometimes saying such facts wasn\'t a pleasurable thing.
For him he preferred to hear good positive words right now, even if this meant they had to lie or hide the truth about him.
"Have they left the tower?" Arthur asked what mattered to him the most now.
\'Well,\' Gege paused for a moment before returning, \'they noticed what Doaf and Amera were doing. They sent a group to investigate things but they were instantly killed by your monster.\'
"Hmm... And their response?" Arthur asked.
\'They are still standing around the tower,\' Gege said, \'it seems they are discussing something in an intense way.\'
Arthur turned his head back towards the direction where Amera and Doaf were at. "They didn\'t start that summoning array... Weird!"
It was supposed for them to start the array by this moment. However he saw the teleportation array and the sealing array only.
\'Doaf seems to be looking for something,\' Gege suddenly said, \'he isn\'t at the area of arrays to create that summoning one.\'
"Looking for something?!" Arthur was surprised before he took out a bird\'s wing. "Something is wrong," he hurriedly wrote a message to Doaf asking him about what was happening and why they didn\'t activate the summoning array yet.
Yet Doaf took a couple of minutes to return to him. That made Arthur very skeptical towards the answer he got from him.
"Everything is alright, I\'ll start the array now," that was what he sent to Arthur.
"Something doesn\'t add up here..." yet Arthur didn\'t buy what Doaf just said. "Keep an eye over him and Amera, I\'m sure something is wrong."
\'About that...\' Gege was about to say something yet a loud rumble appeared all of sudden from the direction of the arrays interrupting her.
Arthur turned his eyes towards that direction and finally he was relieved. "They did it... At last," he slowly muttered as he watched a big red circle shooting towards the sky.
"Forget about them for now," Arthur changed his mind, "see what the lycans are doing now."
\'Gimme a second,\' Gege sighed before she went into silence for five minutes. During these Arthur kept running in a big circle in an attempt to evade any lycan.
\'They are alerted and scared by that array,\' she finally returned to relay the good news, \'they are gathering up their forces now and seemingly aiming to stop that array.\'
"That\'s quite expected," Arthur nodded in contempt. At last his plan was set into motion as he anticipated.
\'Now all you need to do is to wait until most of them leave the tower,\' the golden dragon said.
\'What?\' Gege seemed to be surprised by this, \'they won\'t evacuate totally towards the array?\'
\'Ding! That would be very stupid move to expect such a thing of them,\' the system slowly said before further explaining, \'Ding! Despite the threat of the array, the tower still holds a great significance to their plans. They won\'t leave it unguarded, right?\'
\'Then...\'
"Don\'t worry," Arthur firmly said, "that\'s why I took many fighters with me."
\'Oh! I thought you took them for defending the tower,\' Gege said in realization.
"They will do that after we control the tower," Arthur nodded, "but first we have to deal with those staying behind."
\'I\'m only worried about their defenses around the tower,\' the golden dragon said, \'I hope they didn\'t leave anything eye-catching there. If so then we have to expect more company once the fight starts.\'
Arthur understood his meaning and frankly he expected the presence of many traps there. However he hoped for the risk of that array to outweigh the importance of the tower to the lycans here.
Or else they would turn tail and come at him in great momentum he couldn\'t match.
"Let\'s keep an eye over them for now," he said, "once they evacuate we can start our attack."
\'Leave this to me,\' Gege returned to keep a watchful eye over the lycans around the tower while Arthur kept his mind busy thinking about all possibilities here.
This mission was doomed to be challenging with high odds of failure. Yet he had to do it. For one thing he needed that energy to raise his strength, and on another hand the tower was a permanent threat towards the world here and his safety as well.
He had to deal with it, and so he didn\'t even think about failing this mission. All the thought was about how things might go south and how he could respond to them.
The more he thought about it, the more he became sure about how hard it was to pull this feat. Without the help of Doaf, Amera, or the gigantic monster he wouldn\'t be able to rest in peace while doing this.
"The only hope here is for the lycans to have a divided heart about this," he finally reached this conclusion.
\'It\'s bad to depend your strategy on the enemy\'s response,\' the golden dragon stated the obvious here.
"I know," Arthur took a deep breath, "but do you have another brilliant idea to force their hands to stay there?"
