Second World

1505 Chapter 1505. Escaping Through the Chaos



Clone Jack quickly vanquished the rest of the defenders who were guarding the entrance to the outside. He went out afterward, just as Master arrived. By getting rid of the defenders, no one would tell Master that there were other Jacks leaving through the tunnel.

"Hey, you! How about a rematch?" Jack said as he brandished his swords from the ground. He could cast Soar but the flying speed from that spell was nowhere close to Master who was using the demon wings.

Master stared at Jack on the ground. He wasn't fooled. Since the Double clone created real bodies, they were shown on the God-eye monocle's radar. He had seen the one red dot in his radar turn into three and two of these red dots went in the opposite direction, into the capital. He understood then that the spell Jack used was Double Clone and not Magic Clone.

"How about you come down and–" Jack didn't finish his sentence because Master was already casting his spells.

Master didn't have the intention of wasting his time with a clone, but he also couldn't leave this one behind and chased after the other two. He knew the Double Clone spell. Even if he killed the real Jack, if the clones were still alive, one of those clones would become the real Jack. If he left this clone, this clone might flee back to the Themisphere army.

Clone Jack used Roll and Shooting Dash to dodge the spells aimed at him. He used his ranged skills and spells to attack Master who was floating above. But without flying, these attacks carried little menace.

Master just stayed at the same spot and focused on casting his spells. Jack's attacks were either blocked by Magic Shield, Barrier, or the Ice Armor protecting Master's body.

At one point, Jack ran straight into a giant earth hand after dodging a gravity hammer. Jack was just about to cast Ghost Form to escape but the spell was disrupted by Master's Cancel Magic.

Master cast a new spell then. A non-standard elite spell that could be learned by classes branched from the Mage class. This new spell was Chaos Black Hole.

Though this was the first time Master cast the spell, it was not the first time Jack saw this spell. He had experienced this spell before when he was doing the Ancient Battleground Legacy Dungeon. This Chaos Black Hole was the same spell cast by Herald of Greed which conjured a flaming black hole.

This spell dealt chaos damage each second while the target was pulled by the black hole. Jack might have an exceptional strength to force himself away if this spell was cast by another player, but Master's unusually high intelligence produced a black hole that had an unusually strong pull. Jack was unable to free himself.

Aside from dealing chaos damage, this spell had a 100% chance of inflicting an instant death effect if the target was still alive and within the black hole's range when the spell ended.

Jack had known about this spell after experiencing it before, the right move was to use Gold Dragon Vitality which neutralized the instant death effect. At the same time also recovered all the HPs lost from the chaos damage. However, he was unable to. This was because that skill had just been used by the other clone inside the tunnel.

For the second time, his body was crushed by this spell when the black hole shrunk to a small dot. He died even when he still had some HP left.

After disposing of this clone, Master looked inside. He flew in.

Jack and his clone went deeper. Lots of obstacles were in their way. Soldiers and imps were fighting in droves in the air. Jack and his clone slipped in and out while trying their best not to get caught in the fighting. On the ground, it was a sea of ethereal soldiers and lesser demons. If they hadn't flown up here, there was no way they could go through such a dense crowd down there.

Once they neared the end of the tunnel, no more ethereal soldiers were up in the air. Thus, all the imps redirected their attention to them. Jack was ready. He was in the middle of casting a spell.

The spell formation was completed. Perpetual Lightning Barrage empowered by mana manipulation exploded. Jack aimed all the lightning snakes to his front. All the basic-grade imps burst into ashes upon contact with the lightning snakes. The lightning continued out of the tunnel in a fan shape and bombarded all the demons that were heading in.

The sky ahead of Jack was suddenly clear. He and his clone shot forward using Wind Jets. Once they were out of the tunnel, they saw the hellish image of the capital. It was overrun by demons.

"Thelgrun is going to be pissed about this," Jack remarked.

Jack flew to the side, moving away from the tunnel. His clone followed. The demons continued to look for paths to expand outward. They were rushing to the tunnel, which was soon filled with newly arrived demons again.

Jack saw more powerful demons in the mob. The demon commanders now came riding on steeds. Their steeds were giant armored hellhounds and giant bats with three heads. These steeds were level 81 special elites. There were also giant golems made of black rocks with lava constantly coming out of the multiple holes in their bodies. These black golems were level 76 rare elites.

In the distance, Jack saw a few high demons in the air. One of them noticed Jack who was flying away and it came in Jack's direction. Several imps followed after this high demon.

The incoming high demon was a level 81 rare elite.

Jack didn't want to waste his time fighting this high demon. He sent his clone with the gold dragon wings to engage the demon while he flew away. He flew low among the building to keep out of sight while using mana concealment. He also kept close to the edge of the cave hall. Most of the demons went for the tunnels. There was less concentration of demons on the edges.

*

Out of the tunnel connecting to the station hall, a thick black beam shot out, evaporating all the imps as well as knocking away all the three-headed bats that were just about to enter. An ethereal with demon wings came flying out.

It was Master who was chasing Jack. The black beam was Chaos Beam, a spell that evolved from Mana Beam after he used a Chaos Seed on the spell.

Master surveyed the surroundings. The demonic eye on his forehead pulsed as it tried to locate its prey. It locked onto Jack then. Jack was fighting a high demon not far away.

"Where is the other one…," Master muttered. His demon eye spotted the third Jack then.

Beast Form Jack was too far already. With so many demons around, it would be too difficult to chase Jack who had absurd speed. His demon eyes then caught something in the far distance. It was a pitch-black being, and it was heading this way.

Master looked again at the nearby Jack who was still fighting the high demon. Killing that clone was pointless. He turned around and flew back into the tunnel.
