Emross Empire: War And Order

Chapter 70 - 70. "Jailangkung", The Controlling Puppet

The other members of the Slayer group who had just arrived were astonished to see their friends attacking Shiro. At first they thought that Shiro had done something wrong, so Slayer and the others wanted to beat him up. Something like that is a common sight for members of the SweetSugar alliance who had known Shiro.

But some of the girls were suspicious because Dara was in the crowd of girls who were attacking Shiro. In addition, their faces also looked a little pale, thus making the girls try to approach Shiro and stop the girls who were attacking him.

"Hey... Is there no other time to fight each other?" greet one of the girls.

The Takeover skill is able to take over the human body which is within 10 meters of Jailangkung. When this skill is active, Jailangkung's body will be surrounded by a thin magic barrier and he will fly at an altitude of 5-10 meters above the humans that being controlled by him.

REWARD : Jailangkung, Peridot {Level 2}, 10 Red Crystal Essence {Level 4} And 80 Gold Coin

=================================

Jailangkung is a simple Puppet made of 2 twigs that are crossed with a head made of coconut shell and dressed in dark rags. At the end of the Puppet's hands are tied a stationery, usually chalk. Jailangkung can usually be found stuck in burial areas or in places that are considered mystical.

In the Cay Lan Gong ritual, the gods "Poyang" and "Moyang" who are believed to be the guardian deities of children are called to enter Jailangkung puppets. After all the preparations such as incense and others are ready, the gods "Poyang" and "Moyang" will possess Jailangkung and are ready to answer the questions that will be asked by the summoner.

If this game ends without releasing or saying goodbye to the gods that enter the Jailangkung puppet, then the god will be angry and possess the bodies of the summoners and create problems until the gods are send back to their realm.

Jailangkung Puppets obtained after defeating Jailangkung can also be used as a house protector with various kinds of agreement terms.

"Undead??" said the girls, curious.

"Hey! Isn't that the Punden building?!" one of the kunoichis exclaimed.

"Don't tell me if that strange man named Sumanto, the funeral ruler?!" said another girl.

"Hurry up!" Shiro exclaimed, trying to avoid the attacks of the girls controlled by Jailangkung.

"Al-Alright."

The girls launched various types of long-range attacks, but none of these attacks were able to penetrate the magic shield that protected the Jailangkung's form.

"Tch! Our attacks aren't strong enough to bring down the puppets."

"Sh-Should we ask for help from other groups?" asked a girl, feeling insecure about her suggestion.

"Alright. Contact them via mass telepathy. Tell them if Sumanto has appeared attacking Slayer-san and the others." said Keyla, who then ran towards Shiro to stop the girls who were attacking him.

"O-Okey."

A few moments later..

Dozens of dimensional portals began to appear around them. Ashley and several high level Archers who had come out of the portal hurried aiming at Jailangkung and then activated their skills.

"Concentrate Shot!" cried the Archers, activating their skills.

Requires more than 5 Archers to be able to penetrate the magic shield from Jailangkung. But for Ashley who has improved her skills can penetrate the shield alone with an advanced level of Concentrate Shot skill, namely Consecutive Arrows.

After the magic shield that protected Jailangkung was destroyed, the Mages launch attacks by burning the wooden puppets.

Shortly after Jailangkung died, Slayer and the other girls who were controlled by the wooden puppets fell. They look helpless, their MP was drained because Jailangkung absorbed the MP of the people he controlled to create a magic shield that protected their bodies.

All members of the SweetSugar alliance that had previously spread are now starting to gather in front of Punden. The final round of conquering Rustic Grave finally begins.

Sumanto, who felt infuriated by the Senshis, called out the inhabitants of the Rustic Grave. "Rise up, you curious souls! Slay these humans and take your revenge!"

Cold air covered the area around Punden, making the atmosphere felt so creepy. The tombs behind Punden rumble and then landslide. Tens of thousands of Undead who came out of their graves flocked to Punden, answering the call from the Rustic Grave ruler.

After finishing drinking a few MP potions, Slayer took command.

"Archers! Focus your attacks on the crowd of Undead coming from behind Punden. Mages! Give your best support to the long range attackers. Healers! Focus your gaze on the melee fighters and keep restoring their HP and MP! And the ground controllers! After my cue, make a par.a.p.et that surrounds Sumanto. Don't let any Undead approach him! "Slayer said, giving command.

"Yokai!" the SweetSugar members answered in unison.

"Dara! Burn the Punden." said Slayer, staring steadily at the Punden building.

"Yokai!" Dara answered excitedly.

"Explosion!!" Dara exclaimed, raising her wand to the sky.

In the sky directly above the Punden building, a magical symbol appeared which then issued a giant fireball 10 meters in diameter.

The Giant fireball was dropped on Punden, making Punden destroyed by the fire. Dozens and even hundreds of Undead that walked around Punden died because of the explosion. But a few moments later, Sumanto laughed freely walking out of the flames.

"You stupid fool! No one can defeat me!" said Sumanto in an arrogant tone. "Slay those stupid humans!" he added.

The Undead crowd who had been leisurely walking towards Punden now began to run towards the Shenshi.

"Archers, get ready!!" shouted Slayer, on cue. After waiting for the Undead crowd to enter their range, she again gave a signal to the archers who seemed ready to release their arrows. "Now! Kill them all!!"

The final battle between 500 Senshi against 50 thousand Undead begins.
