Second World Chapter 1698 Assaulting from the Opposite Side

Chapter 1698 1698. Assaulting from the Opposite Side

John summoned the Dire Alligator, Seaspawn, and Water Serpent. The Dire Alligator and Seaspawn jumped into the sea and aided the Abaia in hunting Liguritudum's ships. The Water Serpent stayed aboard Grey Jewel and shot its waterjet breath at enemy ships who came close. It could also erect a water shield to protect the ship against shots from enemy cannons.
John had reached level 80 so he gained a new spell for his Marine Keeper. His level 80 spell was Sea Bastion. After casting the spell, an enormous crab appeared next to the Grey Jewel. This was the sea bastion, a mythical-grade giant crab. The crab was so large it was almost the size of a galleon ship.
John jumped onto the sea bastion while the Grey Jewel proceeded with the two Verremor's men-of-war toward the flagships. Will also followed him atop the sea bastion, he left the Grey Jewel to Joe Parrot and the other crews. The water serpent remained with the Grey Jewel.
The sea bastion's shell had multiple protruded parts which allowed John and Will to hide behind. This protruding part protected John from enemy shots that happened to land near him. The sea bastion's defense was extremely tough. The damage from the cannons was only one-quarter of its normal damage value when they hit the sea bastion.
The sea bastion didn't just stay quiet after being shot with cannons. The water in front of its mouth became bubbly, and then thirty rays of waterjet shot into the sky. These waterjets turned direction in the sky for a few times before hitting the enemy frigate that had shot the sea bastion. The waterjets accurately struck the cannons on that frigate and destroyed them.
The sea bastion then rammed its huge body into the frigate. The frigate almost capsized from the impact. The sea bastion used one of its massive claws to clamp the frigate. Its other claw was lifted high before it was brought down hard at the trapped frigate.
That one powerful smash took out half of the frigate's HP. Cracks were seen along its hull. A second smash broke the ship into two.
After demolishing the frigate, John commanded the sea bastion to continue onward. He was going to the flagships from the opposite side from where Verremor's men-of-war and the Grey Jewel were entering from.
That other side had one of the Liguritudum's men-of-war tethering onto. John had the sea bastion climb that man-of-war. Its multi-legs scaled the ship's hull by using the gun ports. Some of the guns fired when the sea bastion's large body passed in front of them. The sea bastion suffered damage but it didn't budge from the explosion. It continued to climb up like nothing happened.
Arriving on the deck, they saw ethereal soldiers crowding on the other side. They were waiting for the space to clear up so they could jump over to Palgrost's flagship. He saw the other men-of-war sticking onto Palgrost's flagship were invaded by Cipher Flight's guild units. The man-of-war he was at was the most peaceful because it was on the opposite side where they originally charged from.
By then, Grey Jewel and Verremor's two men-of-war had docked on that opposite side. Grey Jewel's crew and Verremor soldiers led by Water Lily climbed aboard Palgrost's flagship and assisted the Palgrost soldiers in fighting the Liguritudum soldiers. This shifted the battle a bit to the other side.
With that happening, the space on this side was cleared up. The ethereal soldiers aboard this man-of-war started jumping over to the flagship. As they were doing that, one of the ethereal soldiers happened to look back and notice the colossal sea bastion entering the deck.
"Enemy…!!!" He yelled.
The others turned back. The ethereal soldiers who hadn't jumped over to Palgrost's flagship canceled their intention and came at the sea bastion. Most of these soldiers were elites and special elites with ranges around level 50 to 75. They weren't a threat to the sea bastion. With one swipe of its massive claw, the ethereal soldiers were thrown to the side.
Even though a majority of these soldiers were weak, their number was considerable. They attacked from all sides while their range units sent ranged attacks. With such a compact offense, they held the sea bastion at bay.
A giant white lion with golden armor suddenly materialized in the air. This armored white lion pounced the ethereal soldiers and fiercely charged their ranks, causing havoc. The lion uttered a thundering roar that caused damage and caused some enemies to get afflicted with the Fear status. It also had a short-cooldown skill where his stomp produced an energy wave that dealt light-element damage to a large area, damaging many soldiers who crowded around it.
This lion was a level 90 mythical-grade Emperor Lion. It was summoned from John's legendary-grade magic staff.
With the two giant creatures drawing all the attention. John cast Fly and flew toward the Palgrost's flagship. Will followed behind using a wings tool. It was one of the rewards he received from completing the Lost Maiden quest.
John cast all of the Summoner's spells once he landed on Palgrost's flagship. His army of summons charged at the unsuspecting ethereal soldiers who were fighting the Palgrost soldiers. His summons were led by his avatar. His avatar was now garbed in the best equipment. The equipment's lowest grade was super rare. Almost half were unique grades.
The avatar fought using Formless Flowing Sword Style and Eight Diagram Illusory Steps. The martial expertise the avatar displayed didn't lose to a top-tiered martial artist. The other summons fought beside the avatar using the Nine Stars Formation. Each of them fought using martial arts and they fought with the harmony of a perfect squad.
The feral tiger among John's summons was slightly different from the standard feral tiger. Its body was covered by hard shells. This armored feral tiger was the result of John using the Shell seed he obtained from the Dragon Turtle on his Feral Tiger spell.
This armored feral tiger acted as a tank for the squad, but it was still fierce. The ethereal soldiers who came close were savagely mauled without being able to cause much damage to the armored feral tiger.
