Samore was standing on the back of a demonic dragon as he looked at the distant mountains with a gloomy expression. As a famous general of the Extraterritorial Demon Race, Samore had never suffered such a loss. Tens of billions of people had surrounded the enemy. He thought that it was a sure thing, but in the end, the enemy easily tore a big hole in the encirclement, causing him to suffer a lot of losses. In the end, he had no choice but to retreat. This was a great humiliation for Samore.
Now, Samore had reinforcements in his hands. In addition to his original army, the total number of troops under his command had reached 100 billion, and it was still increasing.
However, this didn't make Samore happy. This was because he received news that His Majesty the Demon King was very dissatisfied with his performance. This time, he sent another person to lead another legion. Samore could only lead 100 billion people. The extra ones were from the second legion. The new legion commander was called Aruye, and he didn't have a good relationship with Samore.
Samore was from the Red Dragon Clan of the Extraterritorial Demon Race. The Red Dragon was the emblem of the Samore Clan, so they were also called the Red Dragon Clan.
On the other hand, Aruye was from the Blue Ice Flower Clan of the Extraterritorial Demon Race. The Blue Ice Flower was the emblem of the Aruye Clan. However, the relationship between the Aruye Clan and the Samore Clan wasn't very good. The two clans were like fire and water. In this case, the relationship between Samore and Aruye naturally wasn't good. However, both of them were famous military geniuses of the Extraterritorial Demon Race. They were both Commanders of their own territories.
This time, Samore suffered a loss, so the Aruye Clan took the opportunity to attack them. In the end, the Aruye Clan won. His Majesty the Demon King agreed to let Aruye lead a 100 billion legion to deal with Zhao Hai together with Samore.
On the surface, it seems that Samore and Aruye had equal status. However, Samore was a criminal while Aruye wasn't. He appeared as a reinforcements. This meant that Aruye's status was higher than Samore's. This was the reason why Samore was depressed.
Originally, Samuel wanted to lead his men to attack Zhao Hai before Aruye arrived. However, when he saw the white fog rising from the mountains, Samuel gave up on this idea.
Samore already knew how powerful Zhao Hai was from their previous exchange. He was very clear that with his current strength, it would be very difficult for him to take down this mountain covered in an illusion array.
Moreover, Samore had another plan, which was to make Aruye suffer a loss! Those who hadn't fought with Zhao Hai would never know how strong he was. But Samore had fought with Zhao Hai before, so he was very clear about Zhao Hai's strength. Not to mention anything else, just the fact that Zhao Hai could break through his encirclement with a single Charge was not something an ordinary person could do.
Now that Zhao Hai had set up an illusion array in the mountains, Samore didn't think that it was a simple illusion array. There must be a hidden danger inside. This was also the reason why he didn't dare to attack the mountains. However, Aruye didn't know this. Aruye didn't want to deal with him. When Aruye arrives, he would definitely want to use a victory to prove his incompetence. When that time comes, Aruye would certainly attack the mountains. This was what Samore wanted to see. Samore believed that Aruye, who didn't understand Zhao Hai, would definitely suffer a big loss in Zhao Hai's hands. This way, they would be even.
Thinking of this, Samore's mood became a lot better. He turned to the messenger beside him and said, "Pass down the order, the army will retreat ten kilometers. The other side has set up an illusion formation. They might attack us while we're relaxed. If the other side really attacks, we'll have time to charge." Samore nodded and said, "Let's go.
The messenger beside him immediately responded and turned around to pass down the order. As soon as the messenger left, a Cultivator beside Samore said, "Commander, why don't we launch a probing attack? If Aruye comes, I'm afraid he'll say some nasty things. "
Samore looked at the person beside him. This person was a junior of his family. Because he had some potential in commanding, Samore kept him by his side and taught him how to fight.
Samore didn't answer his question. Instead, he turned his head and looked at the person beside him. Then he said, "Ell, tell this kid why I'm doing this."
Ell was called Samore's Shadow. He was also a member of the Samore Family. Because of his resourcefulness, he had always been Samore's strategist. Although he didn't reveal himself, his status in the family was very high. His position in Samore's army was also very high. If one were to say who understood Samore the most, it would be Ell.
Els looked at the young Demon and smiled faintly, "Budd, the reason why the Commander did this is because he wants to make up for our shortcomings. Because of Zhao Hai, we were attacked by a lot of people. This time, we lost because of our shortcomings. If we don't want people to talk about us, then we need to let them know about Zhao Hai's strength. We need to let them know that even if they go, they wouldn't be able to win, they would still lose." Budd nodded and said, "Good.
Bard looked at Ell in confusion and said, "Seventh Uncle, what do you mean? I don't quite understand. "
Ell looked at the mountain and said, "There's a white fog in the mountain. In other words, Zhao Hai has already used an illusion formation. With Zhao Hai's strength and that illusion formation, do you really think that it's that easy to break through? We have 100 billion people. It might seem like we have more than Zhao Hai, but Zhao Hai has the geographical advantage. Moreover, he has a lot of troops. If we rush in, we will still suffer losses. If we fall once, people might not say anything. But if we fall twice, then people will look down on us. Therefore, we can't attack right now. "
After saying that, Ell paused for a moment, then he continued, "If we don't attack, then we won't suffer losses. However, Aruya is different. They attacked us before and said that we weren't doing well, so they were sent here to lead the army. If they don't attack Zhao Hai, then people will look down on them. Because of this, they will certainly attack Zhao Hai. Looking at the current situation, if they attack Zhao Hai, then they will also suffer a big loss. Once they suffer a big loss, then our shortcomings will no longer be our shortcomings, because they will be on the same level as us. At that time, we won't be so passive.
Do you understand? "When Bard heard Ell, he couldn't help but stare. He didn't think that a simple military operation would have so many things to do. This was too surprising.
Looking at Bard's appearance, Ell said in a deep voice, "Bard, you have to remember that no war can be purely for military purposes. Behind the war, there must be a deeper political goal. And you have to remember, whether it's on the battlefield or in the political arena, you have to learn to make up for your shortcomings. If you can't make up for it, then you have to make others have the same problems as you, or even more serious problems. At that time, your shortcomings will no longer be your shortcomings, understand?"
Understand? "Bard nodded. He didn't think that things would be this complicated. He couldn't accept it for a while.
At the same time, Zhao Hai also noticed the movements of the Extraterritorial Devil army. When he saw them retreating, he couldn't help but stare. He didn't understand why they would do this. No matter what, the Extraterritorial Devil army had retreated. This meant that they wouldn't attack for the time being. This gave Zhao Hai more time, and this was exactly what he needed. Because of this, not only would Zhao Hai not take this opportunity to provoke the Extraterritorial Devil army, he would also be honest and not provoke them. He would wait until the Extraterritorial Devil army's territory was absorbed into the spatial map before he could make his move.
For the next few days, Zhao Hai didn't move. He just gave the identification formations to the large artifacts. The Cultivators inside the large artifacts began to make their own identification formations. This was because the Cultivators knew that if a battle were to happen, they would need to leave the large artifacts and engage in close combat with the enemy. At that time, if they don't have identification formations, how would they be able to kill the enemy? If they couldn't kill the enemy, they wouldn't get any benefits, no rewards, no spoils of war, and nothing at all. Therefore, these cultivators didn't need anyone to say anything. Many of them brought up the idea of creating an identification spirit design.
During these days, Zhao Hai has been observing the spatial map. Because they were in the territory of the Extraterritorial Devil army, their transmission formations needed to transport a large amount of materials. Naturally, Flowing Silver dust could use these transmission formations to teleport to any place in the Extraterritorial Devil army. As long as the Extraterritorial Devil army teleported there, it would immediately be absorbed into the spatial map. Slowly, the entire territory of the Extraterritorial Devil army would be absorbed into the spatial map. At that time, Zhao Hai would be able to attack.
The identification formation made by the housekeeper was very useful. The Extraterritorial Devil army's scouting formation didn't discover Flowing Silver dust. This allowed Zhao Hai to release Flowing Silver dust without any worries.
Besides paying attention to the Extraterritorial Devil army, Zhao Hai also paid attention to the Extraterritorial Devil army outside the mountains. Zhao Hai discovered that the Extraterritorial Devil army was increasing in number. At this time, there were nearly 200 billion people. However, he also discovered that these 200 billion people seemed to be under different commanders. Moreover, there seemed to be some disagreements between the two commanders. This didn't mean that Zhao Hai heard Samore's words, he just inferred it from the situation of the two camps.
If the two armies were really allies, then they would have divided their camps into two camps. The distance between the camps would also be adjusted to make it easier for them to work together. But from the distance between the camps of the two Extraterritorial Devil armies, they didn't seem to be allies. Instead, they seemed to be guarding against each other. From this point, it can be seen that the two armies of the Extraterritorial Devil Race had some sort of grudge against each other. Otherwise, they wouldn't be like this.
This discovery made Zhao Hai very happy. If the 200 billion troops were able to work together, then they would be in trouble. Even if they used illusion formations and formations to repel the other side, they would still suffer a lot of losses. Now that the Extraterritorial Devil armies couldn't work together, the pressure that Zhao Hai would have to face would be much less.
Although Zhao Hai had absorbed a lot of the Extraterritorial Devil Race's territories into the Space's map, there were still some special places that Zhao Hai didn't dare to let Flowing Silver dust go to. For example, the barracks and the magic artifacts. Zhao Hai also didn't let Flowing Silver dust go there. In the past, the Extraterritorial Devil Race was very strict with their own people. Therefore, places like the barracks would certainly be even stricter. Although Zhao Hai already knew about the identification formation, he still needed to be careful. If the Extraterritorial Devil Race were to know that he had learned about the identification formation, then it would be even more troublesome.
There was nothing wrong with being careful. Zhao Hai had always been very careful. It can even be said that he was a little cautious. If it wasn't for the Space, then Zhao Hai wouldn't have such a big career. However, it can also be said that his cautiousness was the foundation that allowed him to reach where he is today. If he had the Space in the beginning, then he would've been killed long ago. Otherwise, he would've been hidden inside the Space, not daring to come out for the rest of his life.
As more and more Extraterritorial Devil Race troops arrived outside the mountains, Zhao Hai knew that the battle was about to begin. The 200 billion troops that the Extraterritorial Devil Race sent weren't just for defense. If they weren't eliminated, then the Extraterritorial Devil Race wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace. Because of this, the Extraterritorial Devil Race would certainly attack. It's just that Zhao Hai didn't know when they would attack.
No matter when the Extraterritorial Devil Race would attack, Zhao Hai would be prepared. In the past few days, the Space had produced a large number of Law Crystals. And these Law Crystals were used in the offensive formations. Naturally, Zhao Hai's large artifacts still had enough Law Crystals as an energy source. This allowed him to use the energy cannons to attack the enemy at any time.
While Zhao Hai was preparing, Aruye personally led a dozen people to Samore's barracks. After reporting, he entered Samore's body and went to the reception hall. The hall was very big, it was where Samore usually discussed matters. At this time, Samore was sitting on the only chair in the hall, he didn't seem to have any intention of standing up to greet the guests. Samore was currently sitting on the only chair in the hall, he didn't even stand up to greet the guests.
Aruye looked at Samore and couldn't help but smile. He had fought with Samore for countless years, so he knew his opponent very well. The more Samore acted like this, the more it proved that he had a guilty conscience. Seeing Samore like this, Aruye's heart felt very comfortable.
Samore looked at the smiling Aruye, then he coldly snorted and said, "Aruye, what did you come here for? Do you want me to deal with Zhao Hai with you? Didn't I tell you that Zhao Hai has the geographical advantage? It's impossible for us to eliminate him with our people. If we don't do it well, then we'll suffer a huge loss. If you want to go, then go, I won't go. "
