Chereads / INSIGNIA : The Starlight bearer / Chapter 53 - Attacking the Green City

Chapter 53 - Attacking the Green City

After successfully killing the monster boss, they continued to look for other blue monsters. However, after a few days of exploring the mountainside, they only found a few monsters.

Astrum felt that his current harvest of blue pearls was enough to activate the pyramid so he decided to return to the Beak Clan's house.

When Astrum and his group returned to the Beak Clan's home, he discovered that the Beak Clan's Insignias had increased their level very quickly; currently, their level is at level 22.

Anggul was surprised after receiving the report of the hunt from Arie and Aria. After a while, he and Astrum, Sidius, and Stella went to the pyramid location to activate it.

Astrum uses most of the blue pearls he gets to activate the glyphs on the pyramid. When all the glyphs were active, he sensed that this pyramid had a connection with the previous pyramid. But the connection he felt was still not clear enough to learn.

He guessed that to learn this connection, he would have to activate the entire pyramid.

Anggul was very surprised to see the pyramid activated. After the pyramid was activated they returned to the throne room to discuss plans for an attack on the main continent.

In front of them was a map of the green city made by the beak clan.

"This is the location of the green city, we can attack them from this position."

Arrot pointed to the location of the border of the main continent and the beak clan continent. The Mid-Clan Continent had a territorial advantage over attacking the Main Continent because the Main Continent was a lower plain than the Mid-Clan Continent.

"The green city is in the middle of the forest, we can sneak in to attack."

"Zax has built 5 towers around the green city. Each of these towers has a radius of 10 kilometers."

"The latest information from Arie, Zax is building several Towers on the outer border of the green city."

Arrot gave directions while pointing out the location of the Tower.

"With the number of insignias, we have now. We will have no trouble tackling these towers."

"The concern is that we have to divide into several groups to overcome the Tower."

"Why don't we storm the towers one by one?" Sidus asks.

"We've done that before but it didn't work."

"When I was caught by Zax, I found out that the Towers were connected to each other."

"If we attack only one Tower, the other Towers will transfer the power of the attacked Tower. Therefore, we must attack all the Towers at the same time."

"With the number of insignias we have, even if divided it would be easy to destroy the Tower."

"How can the Tower be so strong?" Astrum asked.

"Zax uses the materials found in the green city to facilitate the tower's power."

"Don't they know that the material is for sealing Korth?" Stella also asked.

"Looks like they don't know this, Zax is focused on getting the abundant material in the seal," Arrot answered.

"Dammit Fool! If Korth wakes up then we all be dead!" Stella cursed.

"Zax only has 500 troops but the captured green leaf troops are thousands. We cannot attack recklessly." Arrot explained.

Sidius pondered the information from Arrot and then made a decision.

"Okay, we will divide into 5 groups. We first determine the leader of each group."

"Sir Sidius, I offer to lead one of the groups," Arrot said.

"OK."

Sidius set up the assault groups. Several Insignias from the beak clan, horn clan, and green leaf army were led by Sidius, Stella, Anggul, Arrot, and Milosh.

Currently, they have 175 new Insignias, 6 guardian Insignias, and 3 Starians. With this number of insignias, it will be very easy to attack Zax's troops.

Each group has a combined horn clan, beak clan, and green leaf army. Astrum, John, Ave, and Thea will be with Stella as group leader.

"Insignias will go first to destroy the Tower. After that, the other troops followed."

"Make sure not to kill Zax's army before we release the soul leeches from Zax's captivity!"

"Catch them alive and bring them back to Stella's group."

Sidius gave instructions.

Then they made preparations to attack, the horn and green leaf clan troops used spaceships while the flying beak clan followed.

The distance between the main continent and the clan continent was not that far, they only needed 2 days to get to the main continent. But they could not directly enter the green city because of the presence of the Towers. The spaceship they use is a cargo type, there is no advanced weaponry in the spaceship so they can't attack the Tower directly.

Landing on the main continent, their location was 500 kilometers from Green City. After 2 days of flight, they decided to make camp and rest before storming into the green city.

Anggul sent Arie and Aria to investigate the situation of the green city.

After 12 hours, Arie and Aria returned to the camp and brought some news.

"Clan Head, Zax's army is still building a few additional Towers on the outskirts of the city. Several small towers have already been completed!" Arie gave his report.

"Hm… They realized our attack plan. They didn't build big towers like the ones in the city!"

"Master Sidius, we must immediately attack the Towers before they can fully function!" Anggul said.

"Fine, we'll attack that towers first!"

Then they moved into the forest towards the green city.

Within the forest, there was a group of people in black robes on top of a large tree monitoring their movements from a height.

"They're moving!" Say one of them.

"We'll wait and see, as long as the Lon clan's help is here they won't be able to notice us."

"Sidius, you sense another presence here?" Stella sent a secret transmission.

"Yeah, I feel it too, be careful!"

After 2 days of exploring the dense forest, they finally saw the green city border. From a distance, they could see there were 3 small towers shaped like obelisks and 2 more towers being built.

They saw that one of Zax's aides arranged for the prisoners to build the Towers.

"That's Dorox, he's one of Zax's aides," Arrot said.

"Hm. Level 29, apparently they have used the materials here to level up." Stella used her perception power to read the level.

Previously, the intel they got was that Zax's troop level was at most 28. Right now the one in front of them was already at level 29, which meant Zax used materials to level up his troops.

"Arrot! Do you know the other level of Zax's aide?" Stella asked.

"No, I can't read their level."

Stella's guess was right, Zax had used the materials on this planet to level up his troops.

"Alright, follow the plan! Each group attacks that towers simultaneously!" Sidius gave instructions.

Sidius' troops moved quickly from the forest to attack the enemy. Dorox saw any enemy movement and immediately ordered his troops to activate the tower.

The tower shoots anything that approaches. The attacking insignias noticed the Tower's fire and made a defense. Some of the Beastros' insignias can dodge the Tower's fire with their agility, Some others can't; some can only withstand the Tower's fire with their star power defense.

Sidius who led the attack moved very quickly. He was able to agilely dodge the Tower's shots. In just a few minutes, he had arrived in front of one of the Towers.

Hitting the Tower with just his physical strength.

"BANG!!!"

His punch hit the defense field. The tower has a shielding field against physical attacks. Sidius used his power, his hand shone with golden light and hit the defense field.

"BANG BANG BANG!!"

After several blows, the shield field finally disappeared. Sidius once again dealt a heavy blow to the Tower and the Tower was instantly shattered into pieces.

The rest of the Beastros group were still dodging the Tower's fire and fighting Zax's prisoners. Zax's prisoner strength wasn't strong but their numbers were quite troublesome. These prisoners are like relentless zombies, every time they fall they will get back up attacking.

On the other hand, Stella had already arrived in front of the other Towers. Astrum lags for taking care of his parents. Stella also used her star power to destroy this Tower.

From a distance, Dorox realized that he would not be able to fight the group and decided to run away. He rushed to his spaceship and left his fighting troops.

Sidius noticed Dorox's movement, he immediately moved towards Dorox. But his movement was hampered by the shot of the still-standing Tower. Not only the Tower fire but Dorox's army of prisoners also blocked Sidius' movement.

If he went all out of course it would be easy, but his power could kill them all.

Finally, Dorox made it to his spaceship and escaped from the war zone. Sidius was furious to see his prey run away, but he noticed several figures flying above him chasing the spaceship.

It was Arrot's group chasing Dorox. With the Tower switched to Sidius, they were able to fly smoothly without being interrupted by fire from the Tower.

Seeing that Arrot was chasing Dorox, Sidius decided to focus on the Tower that was still standing. Rushing quickly towards the Tower and destroying it.

When the Tower is destroyed, the Beastros troops can move more freely over the enemy.
