Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong
Chapter 1702 - Chapter 1702 Chapter 975 The Passive Situation and New

Chapter 1702: Chapter 975: The Passive Situation and New Deployment Chapter 1702: Chapter 975: The Passive Situation and New Deployment The dark sword glittered with an eerie light under the moonlit sky, thrusting fiercely towards Leo Ray’s back.

Under the unstoppable power, the black longsword of the alchemical automaton encountered no resistance, piercing directly through Leo Ray’s chest and stirring a chilling blast of air.

However, as the tip of the sword reemerged, it was not stained with any blood, as if it had pierced through a cloud of mist.

And “Leo Ray” gradually became ethereal until he completely vanished in front of the Tier 5 Alchemy Puppet.

“Reporting to Lord, the fake temporary command post we set up has been destroyed by an enemy Tier 5 Alchemy Puppet. Your illusion was its first target!”

In another concealed area on the edge of the battlefield, Little Illusion furrowed her brows and hovered in front of Leo Ray.

“We had only moved to that temporary command post recently; I didn’t expect the enemy to find it so quickly.”

Leo Ray crossed his arms and nodded thoughtfully, “It seems that the strategy of ‘capture the king first to capture the thieves’ is not only our top choice but is also being implemented by the enemy.”

With that said, Leo Ray’s brow furrowed, and he gently stroked his chin.

This undoubtedly indicated that the series of defeats had not caused the Fourth Prince and his group to act rashly in anger but instead made their actions more meticulous and dangerous.

More crucially, since the Fourth Prince had turned his sword towards him, his own defenses must be solid as a fortress, making his assassination plan even more difficult.

Besides, according to the report from Taylor who was currently engaging with the Tier 5 Alchemy Puppet, these automata were akin to hexagonal warriors, boasting remarkable offensive and defensive capabilities.

Even Taylor’s Dragon Slash Sword could only inflict a non-fatal slash on the puppet’s body, proving them to be quite a challenge to tackle; at least in the short term, Taylor in his normal state would not be able to destroy it smoothly.

After all, alchemy puppets were impervious to pain and any negative emotional influence, and in some respects, they were even stronger than top-tier warriors of the same strength.

“Mr. Lane, the Fourth Prince has two Tier 5 Alchemy Puppets for protection, and one has just been deployed on the battlefield; another one appeared and destroyed our illusory command post. And there’s also that mysterious necromancer rushing our way. We’ve already encountered five enemies with Fifth Order combat power.”

Elder Evan’s face was full of gravity as he inquired of Leo Ray, “Plus Old Stone and Kane, those two wealthy family owners and Tier 4 Peak Powerhouses, it won’t be easy for us to gain an upper hand against the enemy.”

“Indeed, Mr. Lane, anyone capable of taking down both the Great Prince and Second Prince at the same time is indeed not easy to deal with. Most disturbingly, whether the enemy has any hidden moves remains unknown.”

Kane gently stroked his grizzled beard, worry written all over his wrinkled face as he saluted Leo Ray, “What should we do now?”

After the two elders spoke, a sense of gravity also surfaced on the faces of the other elders and their subordinates.

One could imagine that, without the advantage in top-tier combat power, our side would be in a passive position on any battlefield.

“The enemy’s current actions couldn’t be more obvious.”

Looking at the worried faces around him, Leo Ray smiled faintly and spoke calmly, “Just like us before, they plan to multitask, carrying out the assassination attempt while also ensuring their advantage on the breakout battlefield.”

“Since our top combat power cannot suppress the enemy, we must change our tactics in time, concentrating all our combat power where it’s most urgently needed to maintain the greatest advantage, and then watch for an opportunity to act.”

Leo Ray’s resolute gaze swept across everyone, summarizing, “Up to this point, the answer is naturally self-evident.”

“Mr. Lane, are you saying that we should now fully shift the focus of the battle to the battlefields of our five breakout legions?”

Elder Evan’s eyes lit up as he quickly followed up.

“Indeed, the current exchange between Taylor and the Tier 5 Alchemy Puppet is merely a simple probe between both enemies and us. Soon, the enemy will definitely deploy more top-tier combat power onto this battlefield.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly, affirming, “When that time comes, if our side’s top-tier strength cannot respond immediately, we will become extremely passive.”

Leo Ray understood clearly, originally he had intended to suppress the enemy by relying on the strength of Jasper Richardson, Taylor, and Red Night, the three Tier 5 powerhouses, as well as Little Illusion and Yoyo, the two Tier 5 Stone Spirits.

At the same time, he aimed to maintain advantages on both the breakout battlefield and the strategic decapitation operations, seeking to find the enemy’s weaknesses at the fastest speed and then kill the Fourth Prince.

But from the current situation, the enemy has already deployed five bona fide Tier 5 combat powers openly, which has undoubtedly exceeded our overall strength.

After all, as Stone Spirits, Yoyo and Little Illusion, though they can transform into human forms, cannot equip weapons and armor, and their inherent combat abilities are far inferior to genuine Tier 5 powerhouses.

In addition, although Yoyo excels at summoning arts, due to the limitations of the summoning skills of its [Divine Stone], which is most adept at summoning large-scale legion soldiers, it cannot directly summon Fifth Order combat power, further limiting Yoyo’s ability to suppress small-scale battles.

Hearing Leo Ray’s reply, everyone nodded in sudden enlightenment.

The current battle situation couldn’t be clearer–if our five besieged legions could successfully break out and meet up with the other reinforcement legions, our side’s morale would surely soar.

Conversely, if the enemy annihilated our breakout legions, their morale would naturally peak and they would devote themselves fully to dealing with our remaining reinforcement legions, putting us in a disadvantageous position.

“Ladies and gentlemen, there’s another reason why I am focusing primarily on the breakout battlefield,”

Leo Ray’s concise and clear voice once again rang in everyone’s ears.

“That is, while top-tier strength can indeed play a significant role, its effect is even more pronounced in beheading operations and on small-scale battlefields. In a large-scale battlefield with dozens of legions clashing, it can be somewhat overwhelming.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly, summarizing, “The chaotic and blind nature of a large-scale battlefield not only accelerates the energy consumption of top-tier fighters but also risks friendly fire. This will inevitably affect the performance of top-tier strength, thus, to the greatest extent, we can level the playing field against the enemy’s Tier 5 Alchemy Puppets.”

“Mr. Lane is correct; even those Alchemy Puppets who do not fear pain will reach a point of energy depletion and will not have the time to replenish automatically!”

Kane nodded in realization, echoing, “And the soldiers of the Commercial Land Army are well-disciplined, having specifically trained to face National Level threats with the Imprisoned Dragon Army Formation, which can truly eliminate a significant part of the threat posed by the enemy’s Alchemy Puppets!”

“Then let’s start taking action. For monitoring of the Fourth Prince, Serena Clark and Stella Clark can keep a close watch. Jasper Richardson will withdraw for now, ready to support the breakout battlefield at any moment.”

With a light snap of his fingers, Leo Ray immediately began to take action.

After making all the arrangements, Leo Ray pondered for a moment, then made a special deployment.

This would further diminish the enemy’s top-tier strength, easing the pressure on our side when facing top-tier combat power.
