Chereads / INSIGNIA : The Starlight bearer / Chapter 50 - Second Seal

Chapter 50 - Second Seal

Then Arrot explained about the tower built by Zax's troops. After Zax successfully invaded the main continent, he learned that in Nexor there were several Insignias. Knowing only 9 insignias are guarding the planet Nexor, Zax decides to build the towers to limit the movement of resistance.

The tower can shoot cosmic energy so that the beastros cannot approach the tower. Because the beastros didn't have the strength to withstand the cosmic fire. Only the Insignias can approach the tower. Arrot told how he was caught trying to destroy one of the towers.

"If we can increase the number of Insignias, it won't be difficult to destroy the tower."

Arrot's intentions were very clear, he wanted to ask Astrum's Star Beast to make a contract with his clan members.

Suddenly from the far sky, appear two big birds closing to their location.

"Arie and Aria reporting in." One of them shout and knelt to Anggul.

"Oh, you guys are back. Lord Astrum, this is our guardian Arie and Ariu. They have tasked to scout the main continent." Anggul introduces them to Astrum.

Arie and Ariu saluted Astrum.

"Clan Chief, we got some news," Arie speaks.

"Nothing to hide, this is all our comrades. Tell us what's the news,"

"Clan Chief, right now there is some movement in the green city. They are currently building some new towers."

"Damnit! It looks like Zax already knows about the attack plan!"

"How do they know about the plan?" Astrum asks curiously.

"Maybe it's the Lon Clan!" Anggul speaks with an angry tone.

"Hah? How could Lon Clan teams up with Zax?" Thea is also suspicious.

"We got some news that some of Zax captive was able to infiltrate the Lon Clan."

"I've been warning Lander about this but he doesn't believe it!"

"Clan Chief we must hurry with the plan," Arrot speaks.

"Lord Astrum, it is possible to arrange the trial right now?"

"Of course, there are still 72 Star Beasts that still haven't made the contract."

"HAHAHA! That's so amazing! We will carry out the contract process soon." Anggul answered.

After the banquet was over, Anggul ordered his clan to prepare to obtain the contract from the Star Beast. The Beak clans were already preparing for the trial and Astrum guided the Star Beasts to be willing to make a contract.

At this time, Keehar and Aryae approached John and Ave. They showed admiration for John and Ave's insignia.

"Madam, what is the power of your insignia?" Aryee asked Ave.

"Right now my insignias power is support type, but I've integrated my Star Beast into this phaser so every shot has star power."

Ave showed his phaser which had the star beast symbol to Aryee.

"My husband's Insignia's power is stronger, the weapon can cut through any hard metal."

"Ah! You mean your husband's insignia power is combatant?"

"Exactly, my husband's Insignia is better for melee combat."

"Why don't you guys take part in this trial?" John asked Keehar.

"AH! We won't be able to. Our current level is still low and our physical condition doesn't allow us to fight with those Star Beasts."

"My Lord and Lady, pardon my children's impudence. They can't take this exam because their level is still low."

"I just hope that they will get the insignia of our ancestor locked in the master seal."

Suddenly Anggul was near them without realizing it.

"Clan Chief, are you ready?" Astrum asked Anggul.

"Sorry, but I will not be participating in this experiment. I leave it to the younger generation."

"Hah? Why?"

"I will wait for the insignia from our ancestors."

"Master Astrum, Beastros is different from other creatures. We can only contract with one Star Beast," Anggul explained.

"Ha? Then what about the horn clan's Beastros?"

"We are not worried about that, the Insignias of our ancestors can choose the younger generation," Milosh replied casually.

"Alright then, Star Beast is ready. Please organize your clans." Astrum said.

Currently, there is more than 300 personnel from the beak clan and there are only 72 Star Beasts. Arrot was in charge of selecting personnel from his clan to take part in this experiment.

The trial at the beak clan was different from the horn clan trial. The Beak Clan was superior in attack and defense strategy.

Keehar and Arye asked many questions to John and Ave, they ignored the trial.

Astrum was amazed by the Beak clan's combat ability, their attacks weren't as strong as the horn clan's but each strike was aimed at a critical point. Even with flying conditions, the beak clan were able to maneuver agilely.

In just one day, they finished obtaining the contracts of the 72 Star Beasts.

"Extraordinary! Now there are 3 more Star Beasts left." Anggul was satisfied with the achievements of his clan.

"Sorry Clan Chief, that 3 Star beast has already made contract with me," Astrum answered.

"Ha? You make contracts with 3-star beasts?"

"Why is that Star Beast still in that form?" Anggul was curious to see that the 3 Star Beasts were not fused with the star marks.

"Oh, I leave them as they are, I'd rather see them free," Astrum replied casually.

After the trial was over, those who had obtained the insignia continued to use the crystal materials from their reserves to level up the star power.

"Anggul, where do you guys have this much material?" Milosh was surprised to see the number of materials belonging to the beak clan.

"We prioritize the guardians getting materials because they are more worthy of it!"

"Then how did your clan get so strong?"

"HAHAHA! All thanks to Arrot's Training!"

After a while, the beak clan set its stats guided by Arrot. Astrum noticed that the beak clan focused on agility and perception. Astrum realized that they were trained to use perception so that their attacks were more targeted.

"Ladies and Gentlemens, you guys can rest first."

"Zax won't be able to build a new tower overnight, we still have plenty of time."

"After all, they need to train with their new abilities."

Then Anggul sent his troops to arrange for Astrum's group to rest in the provided place.

After Astrum's group left, only Anggul and Arrot remained in the throne room.

"Arrot, how is our stock of materials?"

"Clan Chief, 50% of the material stock has been used"

"Damn it! We have to use half the materials in front of them!"

"Arrot uses that thing, we can't use up all the materials right now!"

"Alright Clan Chief!"

The next day they regrouped in the throne room.

"Clan Chief, can we see your pyramid seal?" Astrum asked.

"Sure, but for what? We don't even know how to open it yet."

"Anggul, just leave it to Lord Astrum. He managed to break our seal." It was Milosh who answered.

"HA? You managed to break the seal of the Horn clan?"

Astrum replied with a nod.

"Alright, let's follow me."

Anggul walks to the back of the throne room, then flies up as you pull the rope. And slowly the door to the secret room opened. Then Anggul brought Astrum, Sidius, Stella, Thea, and Milosh to the pyramid location. The location of the beak clan pyramid is deep underground.

Follow the long staircase that twists to the bottom. On the way to the location of the pyramid, Anggul realized that the small animal on Astrum's shoulder was the animal described by Arrot.

"Master Astrum, is that beast a beast capable of sucking in soul leeches without damaging the host's body?" Anggul looked at Lilo who was on Astrum's shoulder.

"Oh, that's right. Lilo was able to eat the leech."

"Oh, he has a name?"

After a while, they arrived at the location of the pyramid. Astrum noticed a pyramid that was similar to the pyramids in the horn clan but had a different engraving.

"Clan Chief, you have the key to this pyramid?" Astrum asked.

"Of course, this!"

Anggul handed over a pyramid key that was shaped like the previous key.

Astrum approached the pyramid and took out a black pearl from his bag but the black pearl did not react to this pyramid. Astrum guessed that this pyramid needed another pearl.

"Clan Chief, does this continent have pearls like this?"

"This? We don't have black pearl like this. But we have blue pearls."

"Clan Chief may I use the blue pearl?"

"Alright, I'll send someone to pick it up."

After a while, Anggul returned with the blue pearl.

"We only have a few of these pearls. This pearl we got from the monsters on this continent that we managed to kill."

"Unfortunately, killing these monsters is so difficult that we only have a few."

Astrum noticed that Anggul only had 10 blue pearls, he knew that would not be enough.

He tried to use the pearl and then the pyramid reacted to the blue pearl. The glyph engraving on the pyramid glowed blue like the pearl and the keyhole appeared.

Astrum used the key from the Anggul and the pyramid opened, showing the same reaction as the previous pyramid. Only Astrum can enter the pyramid.

Anggul was curious and tried to enter the pyramid but was stopped by Milosh.

"Anggul, you will not be able to enter the pyramid. I've tried it before."

But Anggul ignored Milosh's suggestion and tried to enter the pyramid. When he wanted to enter the pyramid, he hit a transparent wall.

"HAHAHA! You are stupid! I told you you couldn't!" Milosh scoffed at Anggul who fell because he hit the transparent wall.

Anggul responds with a fiercely stare at Milosh.
