Chapter 1649: Chapter 1672. Track Missing Object

Before Jack went up to join Broidrireg to face the eldritch beholder, he first went to Verremor's field command base. This command base was almost overrun by the enemies before his arrival. Both the war table and Kima who was operating it only had 50% of their HP left. Kabaka and the soldiers who formed the perimeter tried their best to defend the two but they were also in trouble.

Jack arrived just as a couple of elven soldiers broke through the barricade and arrived before the war table. Jack used Shooting Dash to come between them and the war table. With Power Swing, he sent the two elven soldiers flying away. The orc soldiers took over then.

Jack cast Remote Magic Field followed by Perpetual Lightning Judgement. With the enhancement from his runestone of spellcasting, all his spells now triggered double cast. The nearby Aurebor soldiers were assailed by a calamity of lightning from Jack's double spell. Many perished, including the nearby beholders.

Peniel used Group Fast Heal while Jack cast his spells, healing Kima and the others. The war table was not affected, though. A nearby mechanic resumed repairing the war table once he saw the enemy soldiers were beaten back.

Jack then cast Double Clone. With the double-cast effect, four clones appeared instead of the usual two.

Clones were considered different than summons. If summoning spells triggered a double cast, it won't add the number of summoned creatures. The new summon would simply replace the old summon, so basically what it did was refill the summons' HP back to full. That's why Master didn't use the Necronomicon to continuously refresh his summoning spells' cooldown and repeated his summoning spells, replacing the weak zombie soldiers with his stronger summons.

As for cloning ability, Jack had experienced having two identical clones existing at the same time when he used Mirage Beast. Mirage Beast was not a spell so it wasn't affected by the Remote Magic Field. But last time, Jack conjured two of Therras' clones due to using Reset before the first clone disappeared. The second clone didn't cause the first clone to end. That showed him his Double Clone could also function the same way.

Jack sent three of his four clones to aid his army. His fourth clone stayed at Verremor's command base while his real body used beast form and Lightning God Incarnation before taking to the sky with Therras and Spark to assist Broidrireg.

Jack's clone who stayed behind asked Kabaka why he didn't summon Verremor's country guardian. Kabaka informed Jack about what had happened. After listening to the story, Jack used his King Badge to call one of his royal agents over.

 Soon, Hatori arrived. When he did, he just appeared amid Jack, Kabaka, and Kima without warning. Kabaka and Kima were taken aback by his sudden appearance. Jack wasn't.

"Do you have an order for me, Your Majesty?" Hatori asked.

Jack nodded. "Please use your track object skill to claim back Chief Kabaka's badge," he commanded.

"Excuse me, Chief Kabaka," Hatori extended his hand to touch Kabaka. Kabaka let him.

After some time, he looked in a direction. "It seemed that the thief had not gone far. The scent is still strong," Hatori said. "But I will have to leave the battlefield, Your Majesty."

"Go ahead," Jack replied.

Hatori vanished after receiving the confirmation, in a way that was as mysterious as when he appeared.

What Hatori used just now was a special skill for elite classes that branched from the ranger class. The skill was called Track Missing Object.

During the time the mobile fortress traveled from Hydrurond to Aurebor, Hatori stayed with Jack. As promised, Jack trained him in mana concealment. During that time, he also got to know Hatori better. One of the things he learned was Hatori's skills.

Hatori had all the tracking skills. Track Person, Track Object, Track Monster, and Track Missing Object. Track Object was similar to track person, except the mark was placed on an object. Afterward, the skill's user would know the position of this object for twenty-four hours. As for max-leveled skill, it could trace the object's position for three days.

Track Missing Object functioned by getting into contact with an item's last position or its owner. Once a link was established, the skill's user could track the missing item's position as long as the item was not removed from its previous position or owner for more than twenty-four hours. That was when the skill was level 1. At max level 20, the time limit was three days.

The trace of the missing item could be strong or weak depending on how far the item was. In the case of Kabaka's badge, the trace was strong because Speedrun decided to stay inside Lorethion. With such a strong scent, it shouldn't take long for Hatori to find Speedrun.

Jack didn't worry about how Hatori entered the capital. The ex-assassin had a vast library of skills for stealth sneaking.

Jack also found Duchess Isabelle who was recuperating near the field command base. Duke Alfredo came to his wife after learning about her condition. Unfortunately, none of them possessed a spell to regrow her missing left arm. They would have to ask for aid from the Church of Creation for that.

After the incident with Evil Janus, Jack believed the Church of Creation wouldn't deny if he asked them to heal Isabelle. For now, he sent Isabelle into the mobile fortress. She was not in the condition to participate in the battle.

Seeing his wife's condition, Duke Alfredo almost flew up to face the eldritch beholder out of anger, but Jack stopped him. If Isabelle couldn't fight the eldritch beholder, what more of him? He instead vented his anger on the Aurebor troops.

Jack asked about Emris and learned of his demise. He wasn't too sad since Emris' life was protected by the revival pool, but it was still a pity to lose a major fighting force in the current battle.

Although only the mobile fortress came, the situation on the battlefield turned around almost immediately. Aside from players' reinforcement brought by the fortress, there were also guild armies. These guild armies were from the guilds from Themisphere, Palgrost, Hydrurond, and Sangrod.

The mobile fortress mostly carried players, but John fit in small regiments of troops from the four countries. This was so the guilds could summon their guild armies when needed. The roof of the mobile fortress' keep was filled with these guild players and their guild army summoning platforms.
