The white Ghost Knight shuttled through the woodland.
The sky was filled with a thick white mist.
Behind the Ghost Knight followed dozens of Lantern Knights, clad in fine armor, with a lantern emblem emblazoned on their cloaks.
They moved out from the fortress, bypassing the troops gathered at the front and plunged obliquely into the enemy’s rear.
Kreya instructed her Ghost Knights to disperse and conduct reconnaissance in the surrounding area.
This task should have been assigned to the Dark Servants, as they are very talented in this regard.
However, they had already infiltrated deep behind enemy lines to capture camps, leaving this task to the relatively more suitable Ghost Knights.
The main goal was to explore the surrounding troops and find a suitable unit.
A white Ghost Knight, similar in size and build to Kreya, ran swiftly towards her.
She didn’t engage in verbal communication but touched Kreya’s body directly, transferring the information she had seen into Kreya’s mind.
Kreya imdiately waved her hand and ran in the direction from which the Ghost Knight had co.
Not far away, Kreya spotted an enemy support unit from a hilltop.
She could sense that this support unit’s strength was mostly silver level; judging by their attire and deanor, they appeared to be interdiate troops.
This indicated that the unit had rushed in from a zone in the middle region, not from the rear.
Only areas closer to the battlefield would respond so quickly.
Upon careful inspection, Kreya estimated the unit’s size at around 4,000 to 5,000, consisting entirely of lee units, with no mages in sight.
This target was perfect, very suitable for Kane’s long-range attack, and large enough in number.
She directly pulled out a chanical device resembling a compass from her space equipnt.
She picked up the device, aid it at the distant troops, and threw it with all her might.
The compass-like chanical device flew rapidly toward the distant troops.
In mid-air, it beca invisible and lightened its weight, precisely hitting a soldier’s body without being seen, gently attaching to his armor.
The soldier continued marching with the main unit, completely unaware of any problem on his body.
Then, Kane, far on the fortress’s wall, heard an ethereal voice: "Information received from the locator, target location calculated successfully, signal position locked, ready to fire?"
Kane imdiately replied: "Permission to fire!"
A missile had already been constructed in the silo, and Kane was now sitting beside it, drinking a magic potion to restore his internal magic power.
A single missile almost completely drained his magic power.
Of course, the missile’s power would not disappoint him, justifying the enormous magic power expenditure.
Kane hadn’t experienced a shortage of magic power in a long ti.
However, due to the increasingly powerful and defensive soldiers in this dungeon, Kane had to update his weapons.
Better damage and technology naturally require more magic power, especially since these technologies fully integrate magic runes and machinery.
The source of the technology is the limb of the God of All Machines, leading to even greater magic power expenditure.
Correspondingly, the damage of the manufactured weapon exceeded Kane’s expectations.
From afar, Kreya watched the compass she had thrown; she didn’t know if it would be effective.
She had a dozen or so of these compasses in her space equipnt, all created by Kane at the ti and made real.
It’s said that the compass is a magic machinery device, very simply constructed, with a tiny energy core plus a communication and environntal scanning system.
It also has a simple invisibility array.
The use thod is to throw it forcefully towards the enemy army; it will automatically hide, identify, and attach itself to an enemy soldier, then provide a signal to Kane and others.
The signal is configured to match YuYo’s body, allowing her to accurately receive and analyze the signal’s aning and precisely calculate the transmitted location.
As magic power surged into Kane’s hand.
A missile launcher, cylindrical in shape, began extending its surroundings.
With the sound of chanical gears turning and clashing, the casing started to open and assemble, with the magic runes on it slightly glowing, indicating operation.
A sharp warhead slowly erged from the launcher’s mouth.
The eerie smiley face insignia on the warhead remained clearly visible.
Then all the runes on the missile silo shone with a blue magical glow, and the energy waves gathered atop and spread around.
"Whoosh!"
A piercing launch sound erupted, and the powerful force sent bursts of dust along the walls.
A missile darted out from the launch silo, separated in mid-air, then veered towards the army Kreya had targeted.
Seeing this attack, the army in front of the fortress quickly raised their shields.
However, the missile ignored them, soaring overhead and disappearing at the horizon.
"Where’s that attack going?" a burly man within the enemy formation murmured.
Yet, the general beside him said nothing, frowning deeply at the missile’s trajectory.
They all knew it was heading towards their rear, where their reinforcents were approaching.
A mage-dressed general said plainly: "Can it really hit from such a distance? It’s hard to defend without knowing the target location."
"What should we do now, Commander Stern?"
The middle-aged male general in heavy armor frowned and said helplessly, "If they can attack the supporting troops at such a distance, we have no choice but to urge them to hasten their progress and rush here quickly."
Then he turned his head to look at the majestic fortress opposite and said, "Such a long ti with only one attack ans the frequency must be very low and there are many preconditions, just pointless struggling."
After listening to him, the surrounding generals showed various expressions on their faces but said nothing more.
On the other side, Kreya still tightly followed the unit she had marked.
She needed to see the unit get hit by Kane’s attack to gain a clear understanding and make her subsequent actions more efficient.
At this mont, she heard a sound of sothing piercing through the air; an unidentified object was rapidly approaching.
Before she could look up.
She saw an object hit the swiftly marching unit not far from her.
First, a light as bright as the sun illuminated the surroundings like daylight, turning it into a field of white.
Kreya couldn’t help but raise a hand to shield her eyes, turning her head to avoid the glare.
"Bang!"
Then ca the enormous sound of the explosion; fortunately, Kreya was in Ghost Form, and the usual loud noises couldn’t harm her.
The dozen mbers of the Lantern Knight Order following behind her also quickly covered their ears the mont the light appeared.
They already had blood-soaked experience.
The light ca swiftly and went quickly, disappearing without a trace soon after.
When the dust blown into the air was dispersed, Kreya and her comrades looked toward the unit’s location.
Due to marching formation, the unit was very tightly packed.
Apart from soldiers at the front and rear surviving, the middle section had a massive crater which was slightly crystallized under the imnse energy.
The soldiers within were long gone.
Kreya looked at the fewer than 200 soldiers remaining.
A halo around her and the blood lion phantom on her body suddenly appeared.
"Attack!"
The speed and attack enhancent issued from her mouth.
The Ghost Knight beside her and the Lantern Knight behind her charged straight towards the remaining enemy forces.
Though these remaining soldiers had not died, they were all injured, and Kreya’s soldiers were not ordinary ones.
They had overwhelming strength against the current Blue Faction troops.
With all factors combined, these few surviving soldiers were quickly wiped out by Kreya within minutes.
"Quickly gather the loot and prepare to retreat."
After Kreya finished speaking, she imdiately let her Ghost Cavalry spread out to monitor whether enemy reinforcents were arriving.
On the fortress wall, Kane.
Watching the massive light rise in the distance and feeling the slight tremor below his feet.
Beside him, Youyou said, "Master, the surprise gift has been successfully delivered."
"I saw it, Youyou did great."
Not only Kane, but the soldiers around him also saw the enormous light rising into the sky in the distance.
The enemy on the other side of the fortress felt it even more strongly, especially the slight shake of the ground after the explosion.
"Damn it, such an intense explosion and tremor, at least one camp’s troops are heavily damaged."
"Can’t anyone stop him?"
"Easy to say, then you go!"
"You f---"
"Enough! Stop arguing, quickly urge the rear troops to rush here at the fastest pace, march quickly, stop dawdling."
The enemy commander stopped the conflict among the generals behind him.
If he didn’t stop such verbal conflicts, it would soon turn into a bloody clash.
No choice, with hearts already divided among them, they were forced to gather under dungeon orders to attack the enemy.
Most of these generals had already beco Spirits of Freedom, but they still followed the dungeon’s commands.
Because to them, even as Spirits of Freedom, this world was not much different from the past.
Regardless, they fought for their recruiters as ordered, sothing engraved in their souls.
Therefore, freedom or not didn’t have much impact on their actions.
So if their commander let these people keep arguing, they wouldn’t hold back their emotions for the sa faction.
They would surely start a fight.
If they started fighting, the soldiers behind them would naturally follow and riot.
Stern sighed and turned his head away.
