“So its effective range is the problem here?” Mo Fan asked for clarification.
“The effective range of an army is critical in a war. If you are using a long-range bow against the enemy’s crossbows, the long-range bow will have the upper hand as long as you keep your distance from the enemy. The army isn’t going to sacrifice the Crusaders, unless they send out riders and assault troops to take the enemy’s attacks at the front, or a huge regint is around to escort and defend them,” Brigadier General Blair stated grimly.
Mo Fan had rarely fought in a true battle. He was not familiar with the rits and drawbacks of the armies.
“What if I have a way to increase their effective range?” Mo Fan asked while glancing at the Wind Destroyer.
“How are you going to do that? Are you going to construct a Magic Formation? It’s not going to work! Even if you know how to construct a Magic Formation, the Crusaders are already using the Cross Chaos Formation, and their effects won’t stack. Our army isn’t strong enough to use two Magic Formations simultaneously!” Brigadier General Blair shook his head, rejecting Mo Fan’s suggestion.
“I learned a special Space Spell from a university in China. It’s called the Space-Compressing Bridge. I will open a Space Tunnel in front of the Crusaders which they will fire their destructive spells into. The spells will only need to travel a few hundred ters to cover a distance of a few kiloters,” Mo Fan explained.
Brigadier General Blair stared at Mo Fan, reassessing him. “Are you saying that you are an Advanced Space Mage?” he blurted out in surprise.
“Don’t worry about the details. If I can set up the Space-Compressing Bridge, can you convince the general to send out the Crusaders?” Mo Fan said.
“Well...” Brigadier General Blair hesitated.
He only had the clearance to dispatch a single troop of Crusaders at most, but they would need at least three troops of the Crusaders to defeat the enemy’s Wind Destroyer!
He would need to ask the Lieutenant General for his permission!
Lt. Col. Mason stepped forward and stated sincerely, “Sir, he’s the main reason why our troops were able to break through the enemy’s defenses and contribute to the army consecutively. Brigadier General Blair, please have faith in him!”
Mo Fan was a little touched. Mason had finally acted like an intelligent human for once!
Mo Fan’s rank was not high. He would need officers of higher rank to agree with his suggestion for their superiors to even consider it.
“Fine, I’ll give it a try!” Brigadier General Blair nodded.
He could no longer rely on the people from the Aorus Sacred Institute. The rciless Professor Xylan only cared about her students’ safety. She had treated the soldiers and riders who were paving a path for her like re ants. She did not blink when they died in front of her.
Brigadier General Blair had recruited and trained those n himself. His heart was bleeding after the Perishing Dragon Breath took their lives!

“Mu Bai, you need to figure out a way to hinder the cat-eyes guy’s vision. I’m going to need so ti to construct the Space-Compressing Bridge. I’ll have to start over again if soone disturbs the process,” Mo Fan told him.
“Alright, I’ll try to distract him.”
——
Brigadier General Blair was very efficient. He soon brought Mo Fan so good news.
The Crusaders were on their way. They would be waiting in the trenches three kiloters behind Mo Fan and the others. Once Mo Fan completed the Space-Compressing Bridge, they would co forward and deliver a huge blow to the Wind Destroyer!
Mo Fan was overjoyed.
He had been searching for a suitable spot to set up the Space-Compressing Bridge. He would need to set it on high ground, similar to how he had done it in Xian, to ensure the spells coming out of the Space-Compressing Bridge would reach the enemy.
“This area is completely in ruins because of the Wind Destroyer. The wind has even blown off a few layers of the ground. It’s going to be difficult to find so high ground,” Zhao Manyan comnted.
The area used to be part of the rainforest and its three layers of vegetation, but only mud and rocks were left after the Wind Destroyer’s attack. All the trees had been uprooted. It was unlikely Mo Fan would find a suitable high ground at least two hundred ters taller than the Wind Destroyer.
Mo Fan frowned. He would have a hard ti following the Wind Destroyer’s location without the high ground!
“You will need a tall structure,” the female student with a tall nose spoke up.
“The problem is, we are in the middle of nowhere, a forest that has been destroyed.” Mo Fan had a feeling the woman was sneering at him.
“I can build it,” the female student stated firmly.
Mo Fan looked at her, a bit surprised.
The woman was very tall and her skin was as pale as snow. She had the figure of a Russian beauty.
Her long peach hair was tied in a ponytail that reached her waist. It almost hit Mo Fan in the face as she turned around.
“Is this the spot? Did you say two hundred ters?” the woman pointed at the spot Mo Fan had chosen.
“Yes, this spot is perfect for following the Wind Destroyer’s movents. It’s also the perfect angle for the Crusaders,” Mo Fan confird doubtfully.
Could she really build a two-hundred-ter high structure here?
Even Zhao Manyan would struggle to build a structure that tall with his Earth Magic. After all, it was not as easy as stacking up soil and rocks. She would have to make sure the structure was firm and solid!
It was similar to laying bricks. If she laid them randomly, the structure would collapse eventually after reaching a certain height. However, if the bricks were laid properly, with cent between them, they would form a building many tis more solid than the bricks alone.
It was even more complicated to build a two-hundred-ter tall structure. It was almost impossible to build one in a short amount of ti, despite the abundant resources nearby.
“Sa thing again, you just need to gather the Earth Magic,” the Russian woman told him.
“Oh, alright.”
The woman stepped forward a short distance.
“Eyes of the Rock Demon!”
The color of her eyes shifted. They were dark brown, like pieces of stone without any luster.
The ground began to shake vigorously. The Eyes of the Rock Demon greatly increased an Earth Mage’s control over Earth Magic. Many Builders in cities were skilled at using them.
The sturdy ground started loosening. The Russian was scattering it like sand.
A mont later, several sand dunes erged and rged swiftly, turning into mud in the heavy rain.
Mo Fan noticed the Russian was combining the rocks, sand, and mud around her and stacking them up!
The mixed substance solidified in re seconds, like water freezing rapidly after it was poured out from containers in an extrely cold environnt.
