Chapter 1357 - Chapter 1357 Chapter 801 Sudden Attack_2

Chapter 1357: Chapter 801: Sudden Attack_2 Chapter 1357: Chapter 801: Sudden Attack_2 “General is right.”

Hilda nodded her massive head and added with furrowed brows, “Besides, once the Pars Empire notices the emptiness of the Unfallen Fortress, even if they are not fully prepared, they will probably take advantage of the situation immediately and capture the Unfallen Fortress first.”

Looking at their worried expressions, Leo Ray’s face still maintained a faint smile.

Before this, Leo Ray had considered this issue as well.

According to his initial plan, Leo Ray intended to use a not-so-insignificant amount of Magic Medicine in stock to increase the overall movement speed of the Northern Army. Although low-grade Magic Medicine could not achieve a thousand miles a day, there was no problem in doubling or tripling their marching speed.

As for the safety of the Unfallen Fortress, Leo Ray planned to use Elusa’s illusions to disguise and leave some troops there for a certain period.

About traversing through the territories controlled by the two princes, Leo Ray planned to secretly and forcefully conquer one or two cities and forcibly open a passage first.

However, now that they have possession of Crystal Blue City, everything should be easy.

As long as Caroline’s Northern Army enters Crystal Blue City, they can instantly and silently cross the areas controlled by the two princes, and directly reach the nearest area between the Northern Territory and the galaxy corridor.

Thinking of this, Leo Ray’s lips curled slightly, and he mysteriously smiled at the worried pair, “Don’t worry, for me, getting the soldiers here to relax in Galaxy City will only take the blink of an eye.”

“Mr. Lane, what do you mean by that?”

Looking at Leo Ray’s inscrutable expression, Caroline and Hilda exchanged a glance, both with confused looks on their faces.

Instantly traversing the vast Northern Territory with tens of thousands of fully armed soldiers would be unthinkable, even in their dreams!

“Mr. Lane, now is not the time for jokes. How could you possibly move tens of thousands of soldiers instantly?”

Just as Caroline’s delicate face was full of confusion,

Hilda held her ear with one hand while her expression turned serious.

From the listening gesture of the burly female general, it was clear that she was receiving Magic Communication.

“Reporting to General, those annoying pests are back.”

Hilda saluted Caroline with her hand on her chest and said with furrowed brows, “According to the scout’s report, there are thousands of them this time, completely filling the sky.”

“It seems they are getting more and more pushy. This time, I must show them some colors!”

With a resolute expression, Caroline “swish” stood up from her throne, and a set of vibrant black plate armor had replaced her red princess dress.

From her ready posture, it was obvious that the Princess General was preparing for a big battle.

“Sorry, everyone, I need to deal with some matters in the fortress first.”

Caroline stepped down from the throne while talking and walked towards the door with Hilda, “I’ll arrange for your rest later.”

“Third Princess, this is somewhat unnecessary.”

Seeing Leo Ray’s faint smile and raised eyebrow, he said, “Since we have already formed an alliance, it is our duty to deal with the fortress’s matters alongside Princess Ariel.”

“That’s right, sister, what exactly happened?”

Ariel Watson stepped forward and echoed the sentiment.

“Come with me, and I’ll explain as we walk.”

Caroline hesitated for a moment and then nodded to everyone.After this, Leo Ray and the others wandered through the maze-like fortress corridors while learning from Caroline’s introduction.

It turned out that a group of barbarian beast tamers had suddenly appeared in the border camps of the Parthian Empire just a month ago.

These tribal members from some outer edge regions possessed a secret technique to control magical beasts from a long distance, even able to acquire and manipulate the creatures’ vision through special methods, making them quite difficult to deal with.

The flying bugs Hilda had mentioned were none other than the flying magical beasts called Green Poison Wing Dragons that the enemy had been controlling.

“Compared to the Azure Pterosaurs, the Tier 2 Green Rot Wing Dragons are extremely fierce and brutal. Though their flight altitude is limited, their bodies are covered with hard green scales, and they can release a special poison mist, paralyzing their targets,”

Caroline’s boots clicked in the fortress hallway as she continued to describe the situation with a furrowed brow.

“At first, the enemies sporadically used Green Rot Wing Dragons to harass our city guards. The scales of these magical beasts have unusual resistance to ordinary bow and arrows and magic, so only elite soldiers could cause them any damage.”

“So, in order to avoid unnecessary losses, I ordered the soldiers to avoid them at all costs, without engaging in direct confrontation. After all, elite soldiers, as valuable combat assets, should not be casually sacrificed.”

“However, the enemies’ harassment has become more and more frequent recently. They had just attacked this morning, and now they have come again in the evening!”

This time, it was Caroline’s fist that clenched fiercely: “No matter what, even if it costs significant casualties, I will make sure they retreat defeated this time!”

“So it’s like that–a Tier 2 magical beast, the Green Rot Wing Dragon, with limited altitude but thick scales, huh?”

Upon hearing Caroline’s introduction, Leo Ray chuckled as he walked, asking, “Third Princess, what would be the reaction from the Pars Empire if these Green Rot Wing Dragons were quickly taken care of?”

“I have been fighting the border commander of the Pars Empire for several years now–an extremely cautious and cunning old fellow.”

Caroline nodded thoughtfully and replied, “If we eliminate all these flying magical beasts at once, enough to rival an army in their power, the defeated enemy will probably cease making rash decisions and observe us for a while instead.”

At this, Caroline seemed to realize something and asked Leo Ray, “My dear Mr. Lane, are you planning to eliminate those annoying bugs yourself?”

“Indeed, with your power, it would be easy to kill these flies, but if you act here and the news reaches those two, wouldn’t that expose our alliance?”

Caroline shook her head helplessly and furrowed her brows, saying, “So I will deal with it personally.”

“Mr. Lane, we’ll take care of it here.”

Hilda chimed in with a solemn expression on her face.

To deal with thousands of Green Rot Wing Dragons, a fierce bloodbath would inevitably ensue tonight.

“You both may not have understood what I meant.”

With an even wider smile on his face, Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and said, “What I meant was that dealing with these insignificant flying bugs doesn’t require my powerful subordinates to take action.”

“What?”

Hearing Leo Ray’s nonchalant words, Caroline and Hilda both stopped, their steps slowing down.

A moment later, Caroline finally smiled and said, “My dear Mr. Lane, I know you want to do your part for the Unfallen Fortress, but the enemy’s force is on the scale of an entire army. Combine that with their paralyzing poison mist, which can level a town, it’s best not to push yourself.”

“The General is right, Mr. Lane. If your safety is threatened by these flying bugs, the loss would not be worth it.”

Hilda nodded and added, “There’s no need for you to take the risk personally for these bugs.”

“Do you think I have to join the battle myself? No wonder, considering it’s a force on the scale of an army.”

Leo Ray sighed somewhat helplessly in his heart, then continued, “Don’t worry, I won’t be personally taking part in the battle. You’ll see what I mean soon.”

Despite Leo Ray’s assurances, Caroline and Hilda still exchanged puzzled glances, their faces filled with uncertainty.
