Chapter 1361 1361. Destroying The Main Node

Master cast two spells simultaneously using his two magic staffs. Both were cast extremely swiftly.
One of the spells was Telekinesis. The blob which was about to strike Master using its arms suddenly found itself unable to move. Master's intelligence stat was so high that his Telekinesis was able to contest the strength of this large monster.
With his telekinesis holding down the blob, he could peacefully complete his other spell which took a slightly longer time. The spell was Gravity Field. A black ball appeared next to the blob. This black ball released massive gravity that made the blob unable to move.
Master then cast another spell, Teleportation. He disappeared and reappeared up on the roof.
At the same time, Jack was already up there. The limiter-off stone lasted only one short minute, so he had to make every second count.
Jack first sent a Sword of Light to gauge the main node's defense. The crescent light struck the main node, causing a damage number and an HP bar to appear. It lost less than one percent from that attack.
"No barrier," Jack muttered. But its defense was very high. It might take them longer than one minute to deplete the HP bar.
He decided to try using the grenade from the stash room. Perhaps this item had a similar effect as the RPG. He removed the pin and threw the grenade to the floor right next to the main node. It soon exploded.
The result was seen instantly. Numerous cracks were seen along the black box's surfaces. Jack used Wind Slash. The damage the main node received was much higher than before.
"Time to go all out!" Jack exclaimed.
He activated Storm Breaker's Overlimit then called out his spirit weapon and Therras. He commanded his spirit weapon to use its finishing mode and he activated the Ultimate Beast on Therras.
He then cast Orb of Storm before following up with Perpetual Lightning Judgement. His divine skill was still on cooldown since he used them recently so he had to settle with an alternative lightning attack.
The Orb of Storm powered up his Perpetual Lightning Judgement. With his mana manipulation back, Jack controlled all the lightning snakes from the spell and directed them toward the main node, turning the spell into a concentrated attack instead of an area assault.
At the same time, he fired Soul Breath and Therras unleashed its earth core bomb just as the spirit weapon detonated.
Master didn't stay idle. As someone who knew most of the game mechanism, he was also aware of the damage boost from combining explosive attacks. He adjusted his castings to synchronize with Jack's timing and delivered three attacks.
The first was the upgraded version of Warlock's Hellish Explosion. Master had used a high-grade seed and evolved the spell into Final Explosion, which delivered a much higher damage output. The second spell was also an evolved spell, Exploding Fireball. This spell evolved from the Elementalist's fireball, making the spell more powerful and dealing AOE damage.
The third assault was his Wind God Blades.
The three assaults landed at the same time as Jack. Jack was astounded when he saw Master's attacks. Master could time his attacks so well with his own even when he didn't give Master any signal.
The seven attacks with six different elements landed on the main node at the same time. The glowing runes covering the main node shivered intensely as the main node was enveloped by brilliant yet chaotic lights. The force of the combined assaults burst in all directions.
Jack had to move away when his mana sense warned him to not stay too close.
Master did the same.
When the light display ended, they saw the main node was no more. Several pillars of light appeared in various spots in the distance. Since they were on the roof of a high-rise, they had a good view of faraway places. At the same time when these light pillars emerged, shining lines connecting these pillars could be seen. They lasted only a moment before all of them died down.
The night sky turned to daylight. The illusion that was shrouding this high-rise building was gone. At the same time, Jack's mana sense also detected a change in the atmosphere. He knew then that the restrictions were off. He was now free to use all his skills and equipment even when the effect of the limiter-off stone ended, which was in a few more seconds.
Jack landed next to the hole in the ceiling. He looked inside the hole and saw the blob had turned into a sprawl of dead night hunters. He supposed when the main node was destroyed, the energy that supported these night hunters also vanished.
Master was a distance away behind Jack. He was aiming his magic staff at Jack. He stayed in that position for a while but then he decided to lower his weapon.
Jack turned to him then. "So, you know how to find the exit of this place?" Jack asked.
"Didn't I hear you say you can do that?" Master asked back.
"I do, but I am interested to know how you plan to do it," Jack answered.
"… The gigantic rune diagram we just destroyed has a particular node that serves as a place where its energies are channeled. If there is any portal that is linked to an exit, it should be in that node's vicinity. If I search around the place, I can use my monocle to detect the exit."
"I have to say, your monocle is truly something. Well, it is so your style to give yourself an unfair advantage against the masses," Jack said, to which Master replied with a scoff.
"I want to ask you something," Jack continued. "I think you should know by now that the reason someone from this faction can create this dimension is by utilizing the divine heritage left by Goddess Joy. Do you have a way to deal with someone with that power?"
"… I do," Master answered.
"Okay. Let's resume this truce between us and deal with this being who possesses the Goddess' power," Jack said.
