World Domination System Chapter 1075 The Assault 1

The fury of the Sea cracked the outer wall of the base and inundated all 20 of the Church's members with its children.
The creatures of the Sea always loved hard to get food, as if they felt that it would taste all the sweeter when they got through the shell-like layers covering it. Hence, enticed by the beacons lit by Daneel, they swarmed over each barrier and began to eat through the reserves of the members as if they were nothing.
The Heroes of Angaria had only heard the tales about the fight between the sovereigns and the Eskilon family, so as they saw the Sea fight for their cause for the first time, astonishment filled their faces and some of them even slowed as they were overcome with awe.
\"Retreat, retreat!\"
As one of the members shouted this, all 20 began to run back to the inner wall, through which they passed as if there was nothing there.
This was definitely one of the more unique methods of entry and exit that Daneel had seen, but its drawback was obvious right away: when they passed through, many of the creatures of the Sea that had been clinging to the barriers also went with them.
A large number of them were left outside, though, which began their assault on this inner wall, but unlike the other one which had had points of weakness that had allowed it to be overwhelmed, this one stood strong.
The mosquitoes that Daneel had sent also allowed him to see everything happening around where they were, so for a few seconds, he was able to watch as the empty space in front of the statue of the Saint was filled with people swatting at the barriers to get rid of both his creatures, and those of the Sea.
The latter was easier, as they could be killed using simple wind scythes, but as for the mosquitoes, they had to struggle before one of the members who seemed to be smarter than the rest found a solution.
He conjured fire over the barrier, and as he kept increasing the temperature, the mosquitoes eventually had to give up and perish.
Their lives weren't lost in vain, though, because they gave him a clear view of the situation inside.
The foot of the statue had multiple doors through which he had been able to peek at the true fighting force of the Church, which comprised of 50 individuals who were all wearing silver armor above their cassocks.
All 50 seemed to be fussing over an object in the middle of the open area inside the statue, which Daneel assumed to be the one which had led to him detecting those weird changes in the elementary particles around this place before.
Whatever they were doing, now, they had to fight if they wanted to see their walls hold.
Until now, it could be said that only the weakest force of the Sea had been used, as only the common creatures which could be found in every patch of its vast domain had begun the assault.
The true rulers were on the way, but until they came, Daneel saw that he and the rest had to give the members of the Church something to distract themselves with, as they could not be given free rein to finish setting up the base.
As he waited for the Heroes to catch up, Daneel saw that it was actually quite easy to see the status of the enemy structure. With every second, he had detected that the material that made up the green statue of the Saint was growing more and more solid, so it was obvious that the moment it completely solidified, it would be established.
As the Heroes reached him, Daneel saw with interest that the three assassins had donned disguises and had hidden themselves among the ranks of the peak individuals of the Order.
He knew that they were doing so because the fact of their involvement had to be hidden. Typically, like in the Eye, it might be that they would be able to stop someone from sending a message, but if there was a mechanism for the Church to see everything going on right now, their ruse would be revealed, which could not happen.
Feeling satisfied with their caution, Daneel raised his hand and brought it down while pointing at the base.
\"The Head said you had a surprise waiting for me? Well, the time to show it is now. Use your best attacks to occupy them while we wait for a few friends to catch up.\"
Without waiting for the rest to react, he heeded his own words and began to draw on all of the Ker Roots that had been given to him on the way to their destination by a Hero from the order who had been sent by the Head on his behest.
Due to the location of the battle being outside the bounds of the Godnet, it was not possible for the system to create a clone for him to fight. Hence, he had ordered the Head to send both his body and these resources with someone that could be trusted, and the man had done so with a Hero that had apparently been impressed by his feats ever since he had passed the test of the Order.
There had been no time to speak to the man during the journey over, but he had decided that he would definitely need to thank the man later, as, without the resources that he had brought, the attack that the system had chosen for the situation would not have been powerful enough to make a difference, at all.
He had heard back on Earth that the best fighters were those who could make use of the environment to great effect. Now, the system was drawing on this concept in a way that he could not have imagined.
To the outside world, it had to look as if he was the one doing everything, so as the system began to cast a spell that would take effect deep, deep below the Sea, he laid his eyes on its target even though he could not see it and used both his hands to point in that direction with a very concentrated expression on his face.
The concentration wasn't faked, because he had decided that he would try to analyze and see what the system was doing without asking it. Using the Cognition module, it had chosen the best attack without him giving any inputs, so now, he had placed this test upon himself to see whether he could guess the way its mind worked.
