Chapter 691: Chapter 691 - Weapons of Mass Salvation
Forev crossed her arms. "So, any ideas on how to kill a lot of demons in a short amount of time?"
Broken had already planned to use his Golden Bow of Artemis to launch his Legendary weapons into the battlefield. However, the problem was clear-there were four sides of the capital under siege. It would be impossible for him to attack all sides optimally or deal significant area-wide damage by himself.
He quickly reviewed his inventory, listing weapons with potential for large area damage. The Bedrock Breaker Pickaxe, Gravestone Greatsword, and Wavebreaker Spear stood out as viable options. The Moonvine Knuckles, however, lacked sufficient area damage and were unsuitable for this task.@@@@
"I can use my bow..." he began.
Before he could elaborate, Frostedge cut in. "I can lend you my sword, Broken."
Broken raised an eyebrow but listened as Frostedge continued.
"My sword is highly versatile and has excellent area damage. On top of that, I can add a buff to imbue your skill with massive ice damage."
"That sounds promising," Broken replied.
Frostedge nodded decisively. "I'll stay at the gate where you'll fire my sword. Once it's launched, I'll retrieve it and join you above to provide further support."
Broken returned the nod and began assigning targets. "West will be the Pickaxe, east the Spear, south the Greatsword, and north will be your sword."
"Got it."
"Good. I'll head to Princess Alora first to ensure we can coordinate and maximize the battlefield damage."
With the plan finalized, the team braced for action.
"We split up here," Broken said firmly.
Without hesitation, he leapt from the Beebot and summoned Polly. Climbing onto the creature's back as she shot into the air. Frostedge followed close behind, riding his ice sword as he trailed Broken into the fray.
During the journey, the team meticulously reviewed their plan step by step, ensuring every detail was covered-including who would retrieve Broken's weapons after they were launched into the battlefield.
They quickly identified potential problems:
Bedrock Breaker Pickaxe required Level 200, 600 Strength, and Mining Technique 5. It seemed unlikely anyone could handle it after it was embedded in the ground.
Wavebreaker Spear required Level 200 and a spear user. But who on the East side could retrieve it?
Gravestone Greatsword demanded Level 200, 900 Strength, and Advanced Greatsword Expertise-another tough requirement to meet.
"Damn," Broken muttered under his breath.
He handed the task of coordinating weapon retrieval to Freya. "Make sure someone picks up my weapons. I can't afford to lose them."
Broken rushed to Alora's side, dropping to his knees. He paused for a moment, studying her. Slowly, she lifted her face, revealing tear-streaked cheeks and swollen eyes.
It was the first time Broken had ever seen her like this-completely undone, utterly defeated.
Without a word, he pulled her into his arms. Alora clung to him tightly, burying her face in his shoulder as her sobs shook her body.
"I couldn't do anything, Broken..." Alora said, her voice trembling.
Broken held her tighter, offering her the support she so desperately needed.
"Mercy died right in front of me, and my father..." Her voice caught.
She continued. "If Pawpaw hadn't stopped me, I might've died too, from my own reckless
choices."
"The best we can do right now is survive, Princess," Broken said softly. "And one thing to remember-it's not over yet."
"Yes, it's not over," she replied. "I'll fight by your side."
"Of course," he said, his voice steady. "I'm here now. Together, we'll make them pay for
everything they've done to this kingdom."
They fell silent for a moment. But both knew they didn't have the luxury of time.
"I won't stay down for long," she said firmly. "I know what I need to do." Broken gently released her from his embrace, his gaze fixed on her face. Slowly, he saw the determination return to her eyes. Her resilience was remarkable-even in the midst of this overwhelming disaster that could have crushed anyone else, she refused to give in.
He wiped the blood from her lips and dried the tears from her cheeks with his fingers. "What a touching moment," a voice interrupted suddenly, pulling them back to reality. They turned to see SpeedGang standing nearby with his crimson heavy armor.
"You owe me, Broken," SpeedGang said bluntly.
Broken met his gaze and nodded. "Thanks. I'll repay you someday."
"Tch," SpeedGang scoffed, turning on his heel and walking away without another word.
Broken helped Princess Alora to her feet, and Polly approached, lowering herself to allow them both to climb aboard. Without wasting a moment, Polly took off, soaring back into the
air.
"Princess, I'll keep this brief," Broken said. "We're going to try to intercept the meteor and
destroy it."
"I trust you," she replied firmly.
It was then that Broken noticed something surprising-his affinity with Alora had risen significantly, now at an astounding 81%.
