"Don't even think about it," Wang Zhong said decisively. "Even if the higher-ups want to save them, they will never let a Great Teacher come alone. He is the core strength of the Holy City Army, especially after the defeat on the southern battlefield. Before the real battle begins, no Great Teacher will act alone. Frankly speaking, I think the Holy Land's estimation of the Octopus people is wrong." Hyde and Noraba's already pale faces turned as white as a sheet.
What Wang Zhong said was the truth, and Hyde actually knew in his heart that the possibility of the base sending an army to rescue them was slim. Even if they were willing to send troops, it would be like what Wang Zhong said; the army wouldn't be able to save them at all. Not to mention that the remaining people in the castle couldn't hold on for much longer. Although there were only seventy to eighty people left after half a month, many of them were on the verge of death, and most of them would die within a few days. The most important thing was that once the base found out that they had disappeared, only God knew what would happen.
"Doesn't that mean …" Hyde's voice was a little choked, and the little bit of spirit that he had just lifted disappeared in an instant. Beside him, Napier sighed and patted him on the shoulder.
Wang Zhong smiled. "Don't be so pessimistic. Don't you still have the few of us?"
Except for Mu Zi, the other three people in the cave were stunned for a moment. Hyde and Noraba did not react, but Napier was speechless. "Boss, the mission given by the higher-ups is to investigate. It is already a pleasant surprise that we can save two people. Do you still want to do something big? Will it be risky … Let me say this first. I am definitely not afraid of death. I will definitely follow whatever you want to do. If we can really save them, we can take the risk, but they have a Warlock Saint and a heavily guarded castle. It's not good for us to go and die like this, right? "
A Warlock Saint was a more terrifying existence than a Sword Saint. Frankly speaking, humans actually had very little understanding of the use and accumulation of Soul Power, let alone the power of nature, which was even more confusing to humans than Soul Power. Humans even had a special classification for this. However, during the Casted Soul Stage, it was commonly known as special abilities and was generally divided into five elements. After reaching the Heroic Soul Stage, it was further mixed up and mixed with Dharma Idols. Even the concept was blurred. However, in reality, the five elements were only the basic elements in this huge category. The scope of the power of nature was quite wide. Humans had not even understood the most basic elements and were still exploring. They did not even have a clear concept. In this regard, there was a world of difference between them and the Mizobudapi civilization.
A powerful Warlock Saint's attack power was comparable to that of three Sword Saints, and his understanding of the elements was even higher.
Hyde's and Noraba's eyes, which had just lit up, instantly dimmed again. The Warlock Saint was like an insurmountable mountain in front of everyone, cutting off any possibility of their rescue success. What's more, Napier's words also reminded them that Wang Zhong and the other two had already taken a huge risk to save the two of them. Even if Hyde wanted to save his companions, he couldn't do such a thing.
"Of course it's risky, but on the battlefield of the Holy War, which day isn't risky? As long as the risk was meaningful. Besides, it's not like we have no chance at all. " Wang Zhong still just smiled. "We won't fight the Warlock Saint head-on. We will definitely find a way to sneak in. You just need to know where the captives are being held in the city."
Without the slightest hesitation or reluctance, Hyde was truly moved. It was not only because of Wang Zhong's confidence, but also because of Wang Zhong's words, as long as the risk was meaningful. He was obviously very clear about the danger of sneaking in and how powerful the Warlock Saint was, but he was still willing to take the risk.
Hyde slowly stood up and was about to kneel in front of Wang Zhong, but Wang Zhong quickly stopped him. "Hyde, what are you doing? We are comrades. It's our duty to save them!"
Although the dimensional humans kept a low profile, they were arrogant deep down. Thus, they united as a group and did not easily accept outsiders.
"Wang Zhong." Hyde's voice was a little hoarse. "Whether you succeed or not, you are the benefactor of the dimensional humans. You are our brother!"
Beep, beep, beep, beep …
At this moment, there was a long warning sound in the distance. It came from the direction of the Shadow Moon Fortress. Napier stood at the entrance of the cave and looked through the telescope.
"It seems that they have realized that you guys have been rescued. Hey, their reaction is really slow." Napier laughed. Wang Zhong said that he wanted to save them. Although he complained, he still agreed with Wang Zhong in his heart. This was Wang Zhong's style. "The flying troops have been sent out. They are circling around the fortress."
"Find some dead branches to block the entrance of the cave. Mu Zi, we still need your Life and Death aura to help us cover up. Let's rest in this cave for a day. Hyde, you have stayed in the fortress for a long time. If you know the terrain and the layout of the buildings, try your best to remember it. Let's make preparations for the day and take action tomorrow night!"
At the command post of the Kaiser Corps, Solomon was playing with a silver dagger of the Mizobudapi people. This was an arcane weapon, but it was now part of Solomon's collection. This kind of silver was very strange. It was similar to the silver on Earth, but it seemed to be of a higher quality. During his time in the Mizobudapi World, Solomon paid special attention to studying the world itself. The basic conclusion was that there were some similarities between intelligent life and living worlds, but the Mizobudapi people were better than humans.
The humans had won against the Holy Land.
The Kaiser Corps was becoming stronger every day, and more elites were applying to join them. They had just formed the tenth squad. Now, the exploration team no longer needed Kai, Enoch, and the others to lead the team on missions. They only needed to be responsible for coordination and communication. They would only be dispatched when support was needed.
"Young Master, there's news!"
As usual, the little man with a mustache rushed into the barracks. His eyes lit up, and he bowed to Solomon. "Wang Zhong did indeed kill the Sword Saint with his own hands. This is consistent with the analysis of the information obtained from the Octopus people!"
"Be more specific." Solomon put down the arcane dagger in his hand and looked at him.
"Yes, Wang Zhong should have created a new combat skill that can increase the combat power of Heroic Soul soldiers by several times. If you can obtain it, you can change the situation in the Holy Land." The little man with a mustache was extremely excited. This was due to his sensitivity to intelligence. He didn't even notice the loli Xiao Wu deliberately spreading her legs.
The little man with a mustache's seriousness made Xiao Wu, who was afraid that there would be no fun, stand up. Her face was full of curiosity as she shouted, "Really? Is there such a magical thing? "
"It doesn't matter if you don't believe me, but Dandelion's information has never been wrong."
Solomon looked at the straight eyes of the little man with a mustache and smiled. "Very good. If it can be popularized, it will become my biggest bargaining chip in negotiations with the Holy Land. God bless the Kaiser!"
However, the little man with a mustache looked a little troubled and said, "Young Master, there is a small problem. According to the seed, Grai is actually a little hesitant. I'm worried that living in the Federation for too long will make people degenerate. Should we …"
As soon as he finished speaking, on the other side, Enoch, who was dealing with a document, suddenly raised his head and said, "No, Grai is my good brother. I believe in him. Just like me, his life was saved by Young Master. He has an irreconcilable blood feud with the Federation. He will never betray Young Master!"
Back then, Enoch and Grai had come out of the hell-like training camp together.
The little man with a mustache shrugged his shoulders and just smiled without saying anything. There were all kinds of people in Dandelion, and there was no lack of naive people like Enoch. Of course, Enoch was Solomon's sword, and he was Solomon's brain.
Solomon gently waved his hand at Enoch, indicating that he didn't care, and then said indifferently, "We'll know the results soon."
Solomon's confidence in his grasp and control of human nature had always exceeded his strength.
At the same time, in the central area of the Holy Land camp, in a unique barracks, Carolyn was thinking about how to break out of this situation. Others were just trying to survive or improve, but she had a higher level of vision. From the beginning, she was not a frontline soldier.
The Stuart Family had already sensitively discovered that the world had entered a period of turmoil. They had to seize this opportunity, or even they would be in danger. In fact, they were facing internal and external troubles, and they had to grasp the Holy Land's movements well. Solomon's 100,000 reinforcements had put a lot of pressure on the Federation, but the 10 Great Families were all pushing the blame to each other for the rapid increase in troops. No one was stupid, and they all wanted to preserve their strength.
As for how to break out of this situation, Carolyn had already made some preparations, and there would be news soon. Some were hidden, and some were open.
"Young Master, the Gui Family Head is requesting to communicate with you."
Carolyn paused slightly, then smiled and said, "Connect it."
"Yes, Young Master."
As the communication signal was transferred, Carolyn's Skylink flashed slightly, and the oppressive face of the Gui Family Head, Gui Mi, appeared in front of her. That was the characteristic of the Gui Family, arrogant and sharp, especially when it came to denouncing someone.
However, Carolyn did not intend to follow his rhythm, and revealed a sweet smile.
"Grandpa Gui Mi, why do you have time to look for me? Ah, how do you maintain your looks? You're getting younger and younger!" Carolyn said coquettishly.
"Hahaha, you little sweetheart, you really haven't changed at all!" Gui Mi followed Carolyn's words, and a smile hung on his cold face. Their ages were not equal, so he really couldn't be too rigid. There were some tricks that he couldn't use, and Carolyn was even more shrewd.
"Little girl, I've watched you grow up. Let's not talk about Gui Hao's incompetence, but you're actually siding with an outsider when it comes to dealing with the remnants of the Assassins. This is too much!"
"Grandpa Gui Mi, you think too highly of me. My cultivation in the Holy Land is already in a terrible mess, and now we're in the Holy War. I only found out about this matter recently, and I don't know what news you received, but it must be someone deliberately slandering you. My side's intelligence has already confirmed that the Kaiser Empire is secretly playing tricks. Everyone knows their intentions, so you might not be fooled."
Carolyn's words were half-truths, but in fact, everyone knew that in the general direction, the interests of the 10 Great Families were still one. As long as they didn't pierce through the last layer of paper, there would be no real boundary in everything, and there was always the possibility of a reversal. The only problem was what kind of exchange of interests.
