Chapter 1468 - 1367: The Play Begins
For the Sky Ship, engaging ground forces is simply an easy task. Even if the Gun Cabin is completely destroyed, just the Jungle Hunter Unit on the deck, leveraging Da Fei’s God-level Archery range advantage, can easily sweep down from above, leaving Da Fei completely at ease.
Thus, after carrying the soil, the Sky Ship instantly teleported away from the Obsidian Mine that brought Da Fei fond memories. It then teleported several times near the enemy coordinates provided by Deirdre.
At this moment, Da Fei’s radar exploded with a red light, and sure enough, he saw a legion on the ground surging like a Hell Torrent.
It must be said, when the Hell Race deploys, it’s grand and imposing, resembling a massive wave of moving spicy meat!
So even Tamilia couldn’t help but drool, "Lord City Lord, let’s attack!"
Da Fei laughed heartily, not so fast! Let’s first scout to see if there are any Japanese players nearby. I don’t want Japanese players to see my secret unit Evil Demon, nor do I want them to see my Sky Ship continuously devouring.
So Da Fei first instructed Selvia to send directions to Deirdre: "Let her confirm the presence of warriors nearby."
"Understood."
Then, of course, his Blood Eagle and the ordinary Flying Eagle given by Fire Dance Fierce Battle searched in two other directions. With the Master-level Sentinel skill "Falcon Team" learned from Fire Dance Fierce Battle’s Hawk Training Manual, Da Fei currently controls seven eagles, and only using two clearly can’t keep up.
Looks like I’ll have to ask him for more eagles after returning home. Speaking of which, I haven’t given him the Unicorn Mane he wanted—it might be on his mind. Oh well, we’ll talk about it when I return home.
Very soon, Selvia brought news from Deirdre: "Captain, Deirdre reported that during the pursuit out of the city, the Hellhounds’ speed was too fast for the warriors to keep up, and there were no warriors beside her. Moreover, after sniffing detection by Glaure Hellhound, there are no other warriors around."
Great! My Blood Eagle and Flying Eagle also found no players around this perimeter. Given the dark visibility in the underground, even if players were nearby, they might not see clearly. So, there’s nothing left to say—let’s act!
Da Fei waved his hand grandly, "All units in position, attack!"
The long-anticipated Tamilia responded excitedly, "Roger!"
The next moment, the Sky Ship’s Demon Light flashed and instantly teleported above the Hell Torrent. Then alarm lights exploded red, signifying the start of the battle!
Then, hundreds of flames roared and exploded on the deck of the Sky Ship, signaling the teleportation of the Great Demons!
Worthy of a siege army, the caliber is not low! Da Fei laughed even more happily, "Angel Army, engage the enemy!"
...
The Mitsubishi Team Command Center was tense and solemn.
On the wall’s big screen was the quick pursuit view of the reconnaissance members. Typically, in the underground world, when a large army passes, ordinary ambush monsters will flee far away; thus, reconnaissance members seize this brief safe period to track quickly.
And based on the footprints on the ground, the initial estimate is that the approaching force numbers at least tens of thousands. Perhaps for the Hell City Lord, tens of thousands is negligible, but to the Mitsubishi team’s players, this is an enormous pressure. Not to mention tens of thousands of Advanced Troops, even tens of thousands of Skeleton Demons would exhaust their Stamina.
The Mitsubishi Team only relies on the treacherous terrain of Lamia Village. This is the first test since the village’s establishment; can they endure it? At this moment, all Mitsubishi team members clenched their sweaty palms, particularly Sly God, whose limbs trembled nervously.
Time continued to tick away minute by minute; finally, in the distance on the big screen, a surge of fire light glowed brightly amidst the dark underground world!
"Hell Army sighted!"
At this moment, the entire Mitsubishi Command Center rose in surprise!
"Quickly follow!"
"Hai!"
But, soon a reconnaissance member noticed a discrepancy: "The Hell Army is converging towards us!"
Mitsubishi team members were in an uproar, "What’s the situation?"
Closer, and even closer, the fiery light surged from afar towards them!
Tsukamoto’s eyebrow twitched, "Such a scattered formation, could it be—defeated troops?"
"Defeated troops? Are they not attacking Lamia Village?" At this moment, all Mitsubishi team members were overjoyed!
But immediately, a member reacted: "Could it be an encounter with Da Fei?"
Tsukamoto urgently ordered, "First avoid the defeated troops, then continue reconnaissance!"
"Hai!"
Immediately, another team member reported, "Captain, if Da Fei is nearby, our diamond transportation team will be in extreme danger!"
Tsukamoto immediately commanded, "Send 1000 Bright Alliance team members in Lamia Village to support the diamond transportation team! All other Bright Alliance members replace Hell Members at their posts, defend each Arrow Tower position in the village, and form human shields on the city walls and plaza!"
"Haiyi!"
...
At this moment, in the battlefield of skirmish.
——System Prompt: Battle Ended! You defeated the mercenary legion of an unknown force, gaining 5.61 million experience points! You achieved "Victory in the 37th Battle", and received an extra 100% bonus to your War Poem Skill, 20 Command Power points, and 10 World reputation points. You spread the reputation value of Silena Earth God Sect by 56,000.
Effortless! After killing nearly a thousand Great Demon troops trying to board, the battle quickly ended with the comprehensive retreat of enemy forces.
However, Da Fei’s mood wasn’t relaxed. After all, what Da Fei dislikes the most is routing battles. Looking at the scattered fleeing ground forces, Da Fei didn’t even have the urge to chase. After all, the gain from chasing them might not even offset the cost of Flying’s teleportation chase, not to mention chasing one side while the other runs farther away. In the end, it’s too powerful and helpless.
But it’s all good, anyway, there are several hundred to nearly a thousand Great Demons’ worth of gains. Let’s digest them all, and then gather the corpses of those long-range troops on the ground. As for other low-level cannon fodder, let’s ignore it. Otherwise, when Japanese players come and see no corpses on the battlefield at all, it obviously won’t be right.
While the troops quickly cleaned up the battlefield, Hilda appeared: "Lord City Lord, as you wished, I have remodeled the Demon God Wig. If Miss Elena uses it, it will have better effects."
Da Fei comforted her: "Miss Hilda, thank you for your hard work."
Hilda smiled and said: "Lord City Lord, continue to think about how to use it. I’ll leave you to your tasks." After saying this, she turned and left.
Da Fei felt grateful in his heart; having her here is truly great. Aside from lacking combat power, she’s a God-level NPC. Speaking of which, how much debt does Da Fei owe Hilda? It seems she hasn’t mentioned money issues for a long time? Has she already been captivated by my wisdom and valor and fallen for me?
Hahaha, never mind that, it’s acting, right? Very well! Da Fei instructed Selvia: "Give Deirdre and Lamia an order, I’ll be heading to Lamia Village soon, they must act as if they don’t know me..."
Selvia couldn’t help but chuckle: "Understood."
Da Fei opened the map, estimating the direction Deirdre’s "Warrior" might be coming from, and gradually formed a clear script idea. That’s right, I want them to see, to make them think I was passing by unintentionally.
After Da Fei planned a route leading towards Fire Cave City, Selvia spoke: "Received information from Lamia and Deirdre, they stated it’s a basic quality of a Banshee spy, please don’t worry Captain. Additionally, Lamia is extremely grateful for your rescue and has accumulated 4,700 units of Blood Wine waiting for you to receive."
My goodness! Japanese classmates actually brought this much wine to me! Sure enough, robbing isn’t as good as buying, and buying isn’t as good as deceiving! So I must act well!
Da Fei gleefully said: "We’re all family, no need for formality! Hahaha!"
Now, with the battlefield quickly cleared, well then, let the good show begin! Da Fei instructed: "Turn on all the pathfinding lights, advance along the map route."
"Received!"
Indeed, turning on pathfinding lights is not only to light the way for myself but is more importantly to let Japanese classmates see.
...
Mitsubishi Team Command Center.
Following the retreat of the defeated Hell Army, the reconnaissance team arrived at the battlefield immediately, with only corpses left, but the whereabouts of Da Fei’s Flying Battleship were unknown.
A team member questioned: "Is it really Da Fei?"
Tsukamoto contemplated: "It must be Da Fei. With NPC intelligence, once they encounter something they can’t possibly counter, they’d wisely choose to retreat. Da Fei’s Flying Battleship is undoubtedly such an existence."
No sooner had he spoken, another team reported from a different direction: "Found Da Fei!"
The Mitsubishi team members were suddenly startled, as indeed they saw some dazzling searchlights flickering in the distant underground on the big screen.
Tsukamoto furrowed his brow: "Follow them!"
Next moment, the Mitsubishi team members debated: "Why is Da Fei appearing here? Is it a coincidence?"
Gunno Yosai was even more perplexed: "If the assumption is Da Fei encountered the Demon King Level Hermit in the underground to enter the trial instance, then Da Fei appearing here means he abandoned the maze’s strategy?"
Sessho Kanpaku said astonishingly: "If he gave up, do we and the American Team still need to ambush him in the maze?"
Sly God frowned: "No! If it were anyone else in Da Fei’s situation, they’d guess we intend to stop him in the final instance. So don’t rule out this is his deception tactic, meaning the one steering the ship could be his Vice Hero, while he himself is still waiting to infiltrate with the Demon King Level Hermit there."
The team members were in uproar: "Let a Vice Hero steer such an advanced airship? Even attack tens of thousands of enemies?"
Sly God sighed: "Though I also find it incredible, Da Fei has turned many impossibilities into possibilities, without seeing Da Fei in person, anything is possible!"
Tsukamoto nodded: "The veteran is right! We can’t have a single bit of wishful thinking now, we must track fully and set defenses everywhere!"
