Li Yao and Guo Chunfeng breathed hard, shocked by the dreadful future!
Lu Zui's smile was more and more brilliant. He suddenly thought of something and slapped his forehead. "Right. I almost forgot about the reaction of the Blood Demon Sector.
"The thousands of demons of the Blood Demon Sector do not crave peace wholeheartedly in the first place. They only agreed to it reluctantly because of the heavy blows, the internal strife, and the suppression of Jin Tuyi.
"Jin Tuyi is suffering from a terminal disease called 'cerebral sclerosis'. That is why he is so anxious to reach a peace agreement before his brain completely collapses.
"However, if the dozens of towns in the Blood Demon Sector are massacred by the Union Army, will the demons still believe in Jin Tuyi's bulls * it and the so-called peace?
"It's impossible. Once the Union Army invades the Blood Demon Sector, Jin Tuyi's' peace plan 'will be completely ruined. No demon emperor will listen to Jin Tuyi's orders anymore. Jin Tuyi and Jin Xinyue will certainly be ripped apart by the infuriated demons as the greatest traitors in the history of the Blood Demon Sector!
"Under such circumstances, even if there are still a few demons who crave peace in the Blood Demon Sector, they are not sure whether or not the Tian Yuan Realm truly wants peace. Therefore, they will have to choose war.
"By the same token, even if there are still a few fools like you in the Tian Yuan Realm who crave peace sincerely, how do they know the real attitude of the Blood Demon Sector?
"Hehe. Li Yao, you brought back the 'chain of suspicion' and the 'dark forest theory' from the Flying Star Sector. What we are faced with right now is the most standard 'chain of suspicion' and the most typical 'dark forest', isn't it?"
Li Yao was more than infuriated. He clenched his fists so hard that his fingertips were rubbing his palms.
Lu Zui smiled. With creepy brilliance beaming out of his face, he leaned close and said alluringly, "You've felt the strength of anger. It is very strong, isn't it? Don't restrain yourself. Release as much as you want. Kill me. Come, kill me! "
Li Yao stared at his aquiline nose for a long time. Then, he took a deep breath and loosened his hands one by one. He said word by word, "Lu Zui, you've completely lost your mind. First, you took advantage of the hatred and anger of your fellow countrymen. Now, you're taking advantage of the most important camaraderie among the Union Army members! In order to achieve your goal, you have ruthlessly trampled on these most precious feelings! "
"I didn't admit anything," Lu Zui said casually. "I can only say that, even if the Patriots Partnership did have such a backup plan, I never intended to use it in the first place.
"There are too many uncertainties in such a desperate situation. At the very least, the first batch of troops that entered the Blood Demon Sector were almost all killed. It was a heavy blow for the entire Federation.
"Trust me. Unless it was absolutely necessary, I did not want to see the backup plan implemented. We could've arranged everything more calmly. When the Demon God Virus is more mature and the army and the Cultivators are fully prepared, we will march forward openly and sweep across the enemy. With a minimal price, we will be able to conquer the Blood Demon Sector!
"Right now, the blood of more innocent people will be shed on the soil of the Blood Demon Sector for nothing, and it will all be because of your and Guo Chunfeng's smarts!"
Li Yao grabbed his collar and nailed his saliva into his face. "Listen up, scumbag. Not a drop of blood will be shed for nothing. Your plan will never work out. I will stop Zhou Hengdao! Don't talk about a cornered dog jumping over a wall. Even if he jumps into the sky, I will pull him down by his leg! "
Lu Zui did not struggle at all when he was picked up by Li Yao. He was shaking like a puppet whose strings had been cut. His face unchanged, he continued smiling. "Then, you'd better hurry up. If such a desperate plan had been in place, Zhou Hengdao should've jumped by now.
"There's not much time left. Li Yao, keep it up!"
Li Yao sniffed and threw him aside before he turned around and left.
"Brother Guo, wake up the Speaker right now. I'm going to the Grand Desolate Plateau with the 'commander-in-chief' to retrieve the troops!"
Guo Chunfeng hesitated for a moment. "Your Crystal Suit has not been repaired yet, and your wounds are not fully healed yet. At the very least, we need to gather more experts to go with you!"
"There's no time!"
Li Yao gnashed his teeth. "Zhou Hengdao will march into the Blood Demon Sector at any moment. I'll go first and try to stall them. You follow me!"
"There's nothing to say. I'm the best candidate. Many people on Burning Prairie know me. Luoxingzi, the leader of the Flying Star Sector, is an old friend, too. I'm the only one who can stop them!"
…
To the north of the Grand Desolate Plateau, at the edge of the Dark Desolate Domain, a rarely-seen super thunderstorm swept across the entire territory together with a storm!
The sky was a battlefield of lightning, and the ground was a swamp. The black rainwater tainted the sky and the earth like ink. When the lightning flashed, it would be a pale valley, but when the lightning died down, it would be a dark swamp where one could not even see one's own fingers.
BOOM! CRACK!
Huala!
Hiu! Hiu! Hiu! Hiu!
Wind, rain, thunder … It was as if a hundred thousand ferocious beasts were fighting each other in the sky. It was hard to tell who was winning.
At the end of the valley was a small communication base made of twelve spiritual towers. A few signalmen, with water-proof rune arrays around them, were repairing the spiritual towers that had been damaged by the lightning in the pouring rain.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
Sparks were spurting out, and spiritual waves were extremely chaotic. Blue electric arcs were even popping up and dancing around the signaller like sordid vipers.
Thankfully, the signalmen were all wearing thick lightning-proof suits and were not scared of the scourge of lightning.
The three signalmen worked hard for a long time with sweat all over their foreheads. Finally, after a cluster of brilliant sparks, the spiritual energy circuits of the spiritual towers were all reconnected.
The spiritual towers emitted glamorous brilliance in the darkness and illuminated the deep valley.
"Excellent. We can receive messages from the rear now!"
The three signalmen cheered in joy.
However, with the brilliance that beamed out the moment the spiritual towers were connected, they vaguely saw that a few fully-armed armed shuttles were flying toward them quietly under the cover of the black rain.
Under the lightning, the emblem of the Union Army on the front of the armed shuttles looked rather hideous.
Before the three signalmen realized what was going on, the other five signalmen who were responsible for guarding the spiritual towers rushed out of the half-underground sentry post next to the spiritual towers. Their screams and the lightning cut across the sky together.
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Enemy attack! "
The three signalmen were at a loss. But after years of rigorous training, they realized what was going on out of instinct. They jumped down from the spiritual towers and grabbed their storm bolters immediately!
Eight signalmen were standing in a defensive formation with their backs against the spiritual towers. They breathed heavily in the pouring rain.
On their opposite side, twelve soldiers of the Union Army wearing Mystic Skeleton Battlesuits flew out of the armed shuttles and surrounded them from the high ground. The powerful multi-barreled machine guns, whose caliber was at least three times that of the storm bolters in their hands, were all aimed at the critical parts of their bodies!
Storm bolters versus machine guns!
Union Army versus Union Army!
Huala! Huala! Huala!
One lightning after another illuminated the twenty soldiers who looked like they were made of iron in the dark rain!
"This is a restricted military area. Nobody is allowed to approach without a password! Password! Password! "
A platoon leader, who was the commander of the signalmen, bellowed, his mouth full of rainwater.
"We are the first special squad of the Dragon Horse Legion. With the order of Iron Commander Zhou Hengdao here, we will take over the No. 23 communication base immediately! Change the defense immediately and follow our command! "
A cold voice came over from the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit.
"Back off! Back off! "
The platoon leader was not moved at all. He aimed his storm bolter at the enemy and said, "We are the 55th Division of the 24th Army! We are not under the command of the Dragon Horse Legion! Our mission is to defend the No. 23 communication base until the last moment! We will not change the defense until we receive the order from our direct superior! Please give us a clearer order. Otherwise, we will open fire! "
"What — what's going on?"
The tense atmosphere made one of the young signalmen panic. He managed to hold the barrel of his gun and asked the veteran next to him in a low voice.
"I don't know. The platoon leader seems to have gone crazy after receiving a few messages from the rear!"
Illuminated by the lightning, the veteran's face was pale, too. But his hands that were holding the storm bolter did not shake at all. "This is not good. F * ck. This is not good!"
"Let me repeat myself. This is an emergency. Change the defense immediately and follow our command!"
The killing intent of the twelve warriors in the Crystal Suit was getting more and more intense. It was bouncing like an inextinguishable fire even in the heavy rain. "Whoever disobeys the order of the Iron Commander will be executed immediately!"
"I don't know who the Iron Commander is. I only know the password! The password! The password! "
The platoon leader roared and loaded the spiritual energy bombs!
The sound raised a chain reaction. Cracking noises echoed in the pouring black rain. Infinite fire was condensing in the hands of the two parties, ready to be triggered at any moment!
"Second Lieutenant, don't put up unnecessary resistance!"
The voice in the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit was no longer cold. It was anxious, if not begging. "There are only eight of you, and you are not wearing the Crystal Suit yet. You are definitely no match for us. You won't even cause any damage to us! Put down your weapons! Think about your brothers and put down your weapons! "
"Never!"
The second lieutenant raised his gun, his eyes as bright as those of a ferocious animal. "We are the Union Army! The Federal Army, where the guns are, the people are, and where the guns die, the people die! "
"Put down your weapons!"
"Back off! Back off! Or we'll shoot! "
"You will be executed immediately if you delay the plan!"
"You will be executed immediately if you trespass!"
"Don't be stupid. We don't want to shoot at our brothers!"
"Then back off! Back off! Back off!"
In the storm, the twenty warriors of the Union Army seemed to have turned into twenty ferocious beasts. They were roaring and baring their sharp claws and teeth.
"There's no time. Prepare the anesthetic bullets. Finish them now!"
The commander of the Union Army in the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit said to his companions in a hurry.
However, before he could finish his sentence —
"BOOM! CRACK! "
A thunderbolt happened to explode right above their heads.
The nervous soldier in the communication team shook his hand. A spiritual energy bomb rushed out and hit the breastplate of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit on the opposite side.
The dazzling fireball burned everyone's eyes.
"Da Da Da Da Da Da!"
"BOOM BOOM BOOM! BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM! "
There was no telling who fired first. The two squads of the Union Army were both enshrouded in fiery snakes and light balls!)
