Chapter 582
\"We will pass through the Sky Door the moment it appears . \"
Forne calmly said, his gaze jumping from one person to another . There were multiple individuals facing him, all are part of a group and intend to take down Sol’khin . There was X, the Void Behemoth, G’am Tir, Lucy, and Celes . Zodiak was missing but he wasn’t part of their ’alliance’ though his intentions are similar to theirs .
\"What about the city?\"-Lucy
Hearing her out-of-the-blue question, the Black Seat frowned and retorted:
\"What about it? Our job is to climb the tower and not protect an unknown territory . \"
X also butted in, mockingly saying:
\"Don’t tell me you want to protect the people here?\"
\"No, I was just asking . \"
Without even looking at the blurry-faced man, Lucy snorted and maintained her silence .
\"Anyway, the enemy forces will siege this place at dusk, most likely . We’ll move together and secure a safe path . \"
After going through the rather simplistic and straightforward plan, they all dispersed, each minding their own business .
It has been two days since the contestants were teleported to this city and, from what the Red Tower said, the siege will occur very soon .
Some positioned themselves above the walls, along with the mix-raced soldiers, wanting to gain points and protect the city for some time . Others hid inside the city, unwilling to participate, their only goal was the Sky Door, which nobody knew how to it looked like or where it is .
One thing is for sure; the Sky Door is bound to appear with the alien race . It wasn’t obligatory to kill or protect the city, however, it was highly advised to obtain some points for the sake of a better journey to the top floor as the goods from the Luxury Shop are useful and overpowered, even .
Arthur spent two days doing nothing in particular . At night, he’ll chat for a bit with Ber Von Xin then go wander around the city, sometimes meeting participants lurking in dark places, doing shady and unnecessary things .
Time crept by and, finally, with the rising bright sun, D-day began . It all began with a loud alarm echoed across the whole city, waking up and soldiers and alerting all the inhabitants .
Excluding the contestants, there were quite a few distinguishable and strong characters standing atop the high walls . The city lord was one of them, he was adorned in a grey and thick armor, a dark gold helmet and a long two-handed white sword on his back .
Despite having their skills and techniques ’disabled’, none of the present contestants is powerless... in fact, they should be able to annihilate the enemy forces if they all joined hands . Unfortunately, only a meager amount allied with the army while the rest stood at the back and watched the show .
As the light of the sun started to illuminate the dark sky, the ground started lightly shaking before it transformed into violent tremors . North-east, East, and South-east of the city, the terrain was rocky, making it rather disadvantageous to attack from there, so the aliens all came the West .

The thousands of archers prepared their arrows, some burning and others coated with poison or enhancement-magic, drastically increasing their damage . The wall was crowded with people, so was the ground, on which fifteen to twenty thousand soldiers unsheathed their weapons and raised their shields .
Arthur, who stood at the far edge of the wall, calmly looked at the beginning of this siege, his gaze lingering on the enemy forces . Their size was twice if not thrice that of beastmen and humans, they had four, six, or eight arms and their face is hideous, to say the least .
They brought with them a savage and barbaric red aura that affected anyone weak-willed and even affected the environment .
’Should’ve expected them to be here . ’
\"Master, they’re different from the normal Cthulhu . They move in a precise formation and seem to be much more intelligent . \"
The Quad-Spirit could see them clearly due to its high Earth Magic mastery . Through the shaking ground, it managed to study their marching formation and located what seemed to be the leaders .
’Intelligent or not, it matters not . Their creepy laughter and the nauseous smell of blood remains present . They’re monsters . ’
\"It’ll be harder than expected . The Sky Door is well-protected . \"
Though he couldn’t see what the spirit was talking about, Arthur still trusted its words .
Several minutes later, a looming shadow came from afar, bringing with it an enormous shadow reaching all the way to the high wall surrounding the city . Gargantuan Cthulhu were using chains to drag a massive black metal door, its height easily reached 50 meters if not more .
\"Master, aren’t you going to participate?\"
’It’s still too early . The big shots have not shown themselves either... well, except for that freak . ’
As he replied to the Spirit, Arthur glanced at a green-haired woman standing at the front of the vanguard . She has unsheathed her sword and laughing while waiting for the Cthulhu to come closer . Right behind her, there was the mage Tula, the dwarf, the thief, and two others . One was a woman wearing a long white and red robe, a priest, from the looks of it, while the other was a tall and muscular man covered in blue tattoos .
’Have you found any traces of Zodiak?’
\"No, he’s either not in the city or in a place void of Earth and Fire . \"
’Tsk!’
Arthur clicked his tongue, feeling a bit uneasy . Ever since he found out that Zodiak is alive and kicking, he couldn’t sit still . Furthermore, that old man wants to kill Sol’khin too, making him sort of Arthur’s enemy .
Unlike Celes, X, and the rest, Zodiak is different in a way that can threaten Arthur .
The parasite still had some of his reincarnation’s memories so he knew what the old man is capable of with Dark Magic alone . His attainment in that malevolent ability is nothing short of extraordinary .
Sure, Arthur can utilize Dark Magic well too but many of Zodiak’s skills didn’t get passed to him . For example, the ability to dodge attacks by changing parts of your body into an untouchable form such as gas or liquid .
It sounds simple but it allowed Zodiak to counter many, many enemies, easily passing through ultimate attacks and forbidden spells . The White Tiger’s skill is similar to this but it’s temporary and costs an absurd amount of Mana and Nether Energy .
