Chapter 1777: Chapter 1777: Sinister Nightfall
Li Yao sat in the captain’s cabin of the Drying Sun, the ship’s deck in front of him seed to have beco transparent, allowing him to see the situation outside clearly.
At this mont, the Drying Sun and the Queen were respectively patrolling the skies on the fortress’s periphery. Inside and outside the fortress, countless bonfires blazed, people gathered by guilds and teams to revel, distribute spoils, or discuss the next steps of the battle.
Everyone was very excited; even the players who didn’t get their share felt that the rewards for military achievents this ti were quite generous, completely worth the risk.
The sky was reflected in a red hue, and Li Yao, doing nothing, sat comfortably in his chair as if he were dozing, or perhaps admiring the scenery below.
“You’re quite leisurely, I bet everyone else in the guild is frantically busy, except you.”
Li Jie walked in holding a folder; besides Li Yao, only the core managent team had the right to enter the captain’s cabin, so Li Yao made no response.
In this journey, the core mbers of Starfire were only Li Jie and Li Yao; everyone else, including Tong Tong, followed to prepare for the real target attack.
Li Yao was afraid they wouldn’t be strong enough, even sending out the Dragon Queen, so this journey seed formidable but was the re illusion created by two Air Fortresses.
Such a state to take down the main city is just a joke, but outsiders don’t know, thinking Li Yao is deliberately keeping his strength hidden.
Li Yao opened his eyes and gestured for her to sit: “Didn’t you say you can handle these matters yourself? I’m too lazy to care about specifics; it’s such a hassle.”
“It’s not trivial matters but the latest situation from the other two paths.” Li Jie handed the file to Li Yao.
Li Yao glanced at it, still forms and such, and said helplessly: “You might as well just summarize it.”
Li Jie shook her head humorously, who could imagine Li Yao, seeing Starfire developed to such a degree, would dislike handling these affairs, avoiding complex forms unless absolutely necessary.
“Alright, I’ll just summarize it briefly. The other two teams are quite successful, the squad led by the Fruit Knight directly captured a city in Feralas, not far from the main city, also close to the Farwalker Camp, easy for support.” Li Jie said.
Li Yao was surprised: “It’s challenging for them to capture a city on that side; how did they do it?”
Li Jie said: “Of course it’s through cooperation. Starfire’s reputation is worth more than you think; our troops are here showing off their might. The Fruit Knight found several partners over there quite easily.”
“What’s the reason?” Li Yao asked.
“Naturally, the idea that eggs shouldn’t be put in one basket.” Li Jie smiled.
Li Yao nodded: “And what about the other side?”
Li Jie explained: “Demon Concubine and Tong Tong, to avoid attracting attention, used your na to have the strategy departnt sign a file, then forged a false guild upon registration, then transford using a transformation item, and in the na of the new guild occupied a camp in Feralas—not a city, but the surrounding resources are abundant and tight construction of barracks and factories is underway.”
Li Yao nodded: “As long as it goes smoothly, let them stabilize and start transporting materials there, manufacture siege machines; how many days do you estimate for complete readiness on that side?”
Li Jie thought for a while before saying: “Probably about two more days to prepare completely.”
“Two days? Faster than I expected, but good. In two days, I can have fun with the Lizardn.” Li Yao’s eyes glead with light.
“That’s tomorrow’s matter, since you’re free, rest well; the front battlefield is the key to victory, you can’t afford mishaps at critical monts.”
Li Yao shook his head: “I wasn’t referring to playing with the Lizardn; the ga has already begun, now isn’t the ti for rest.”
Li Jie was startled: “It’s unnecessary this late, besides the people below are celebrating, they’re tired and none are in the mood to accompany you for a romp.”
“You’re wrong; it’s not wanting a night of revelry, but the Lizardn won’t sit and wait.” Li Yao smirked, gazing coldly at the distant swamp jungle.
“You an, the Lizardn plan to attack us tonight?” Li Jie asked.
“Not to attack us, even if they killed all the players, what’s the point? Everyone’s at max level now, not concerned about dying once; especially with the army in personal spaces now. Killing players is aningless. However, they need to do sothing, and they’ve already arrived.” Li Yao explained.
“Why haven’t our Scouts detected any movent?” Li Jie frowned.
Li Yao explained: “Lizardn are naturally adept at stealth in the mud; this area is their core map, a swamp environnt they adore. They dominate the dinsion because they can hide in the mud when weak, undetectable by life or heat signatures. Here is their paradise, aerial Scouts naturally can’t detect any movent—and it’s normal. Sadly, they miscalculated; I have Motherbug Bugs, equally adept at controlling the underground.”
Li Jie instantly understood the Lizardn’s plan: “Hmm, if they’ve been lurking for half a day without acting, it’s probably targeted at our Air Fortress. You’ve been waiting, what’s the plan?”
Li Yao chuckled: “Just play with them, what else? Return to the Queen, and do nothing, let the Phantom direct the fortress to bombard the city here, let them pay so price, the Drying Sun stays here, I will play with them—just a warship, even if truly destroyed, I can afford to lose.”
“Alright, let’s play then. Knew from the start of the war the enemy would target the Air Fortress, their threat is too great—it’s unavoidable.” Li Jie took the file and her body flashed with teleportation light: “Finish early, rest early, don’t play too hard and waste ti.”
Li Yao nodded, waited for Li Jie to disappear, then stood up and walked out of the captain’s cabin: “Let’s get started.”
On the ground, players continued to celebrate, and many were resting in tents.
Underground, the Dungeon Lord led a group of fierce Dungeon Spiders advancing quickly.
Beneath the swamp outside the castle, unknown numbers of Lizardn marched silently, their movent undetected on the surface.
Both parties t without warning, the Lizardn’s expressions suddenly changed drastically. The Dungeon Lord’s eyes were filled with ferocity.
“Wretches, your foolish tricks can never deceive the great master; die!”
The bugs in the underground charged violently towards the Lizardn in the mire.
Though Lizardn can stealth underground, they aren’t skilled in subterranean combat. With a piercing, special hiss, all Lizardn rapidly rushed to the surface…
