Chapter 1218: Chapter 1219: Made a Mistake
Until the last group of scout teams belonging to the three great Overlord level forces, none were able to detect the approach of these tal cubes.
In the end, they could only watch helplessly as these tal cubes exploded completely, forming a thunder grid that entirely enveloped their fleet.
Among them, a scout leader from the Hude Clan gritted his teeth and suddenly dashed toward the outside of the Cloud Boat.
In his view, he couldn’t send out a ssage, surely because of tricks with this thunder grid.
As long as he got out of the thunder grid, the ssage could definitely be sent out.
But just as he approached the grid, a mass of black smoke suddenly appeared in the void ahead, and a figure erged from this smoke.
This person was a thin human wearing a black hood and soft armor.
As he got closer, he could see the person was wearing a ghastly white mask, sared with scarlet paint depicting a grimacing smile.
The Hude Clan’s scout leader, upon seeing this sudden figure, instinctively resisted, his stone-like body exploding with an earthy yellow glow, heaviness erging.
He was a standout in the Transparent Realm, extrely adept at defense, confident he could block the opponent’s attack without issue.
The force of his charge should carry this shadow beyond the grid’s range.
However, the shadow opened his hands, and dark chains quickly slid out, chains with small blades instantly wrapping his body, trapping it.
On the chains, golden light vaguely flowed, carrying a dignified aura.
The hooded human wearing the blood-colored grimacing mask crossed his hands, pulling forcefully, the dark blade chains enshing together, instantly slicing the Hude Clan scout leader into pieces, falling into the void.
Swipe! Swipe! Swipe!
Such thoughts were not only in this scout team leader’s mind, but many others in the scout teams also sought opportunities to break through to positions outside the grid.
Yet, as soon as they charged out, a mass of black smoke appeared before them, and before they could react, the dark blade chains completely slaughtered them.
The thods were clean and swift, not one could escape the fate of being shredded.
On the Cloud Boat, those who did not act rashly looked at the silhouettes on the deck, who had killed their colleagues, feeling a sense of fear.
These people, after landing on the deck, tilted their heads and looked in their direction for a while, but it was just this brief mont that scared everyone with the scarlet masked grimacing smile.
Then, these black silhouettes disappeared into the black smoke.
But whenever soone tried to break through the grid, these figures erging from the black smoke would ruthlessly eliminate them.
Not long after, they also saw a scholar-like person from the tallic warship land on their Cloud Boat.
“His Majesty harbors benevolence, unwilling to cause unnecessary slaughter. Those who surrender may be spared, and with a guilty body, atone for cris,” the official who ca to the Cloud Boat spoke slowly to the scout teams before him.
The scouts on the Cloud Boat fleet were puzzled by the official’s words. Was he here to recruit?
Indeed, so scouts were eager, thinking that if they could capture this person, they might be able to use it as leverage, perhaps escaping to ascend to heaven.
However, these officials on the Cloud Boat seed to notice the scouts’ intentions and spoke unhurriedly: “If you act rashly, the Ghost Face will directly act and completely eradicate you.”
“Hmm, perhaps you don’t understand, the Ghost Face is a top assassin in our Huaxia Empire Imperial Army. Their movents are unpredictable and can instantly appear where your defenses are weakest, delivering a fatal blow.”
“But…”
At this mont, the officials on the Cloud Boat each unleashed their internal aura, tone teasingly: “Whether you can defeat is still uncertain.”
The scouts, previously eager, turned pale at the Enlightennt Realm aura emanating from this scholar-like person.
At least, in their view, this person alone could wipe them out, let alone the strange being that was Ghost Face.
Just with a turn, Lin Qian had already controlled all the scout teams from the three Overlord level forces.
The first two batches were slaughtered to intimidate and deter them, then the thunder grid was used to interfere with their communication scouting and persuade them to surrender.
Now, Lin Qian could deploy more troops, like the Ghost Face.
Compared to Night Shadows, Ghost Face’s assassination and elimination capabilities were greater, their whereabouts more enigmatic.
Moreover, their ghost masks allowed them to beco one with the black smoke, blending into the darkness and hiding their forms.
The plan proceeded smoothly. The scout teams from the three Overlord level forces were completely captured, leaving the opponent blind, making the upcoming actions more successful.
anwhile, these scout teams, once subdued, also beca valuable population resources.
Lin Qian and the Huaxia Empire were not heavily bound by demonic oath restrictions, coupled with imperial dominance talent, as long as these people were willing to surrender and swear a demonic oath, they would be assimilated by the Empire, becoming a part of Huaxia.
On the other side, within the secret room of Beixuan Heaven, the soul energy avatars of the Clan Leaders of the Four Clans and a group of elders were already left stunned.
“That array is simply incredible, could it be there’s no Array Master controlling it, and it ford on its own?” An elder from the Yuanwu Clan couldn’t suppress his inner shock and called out.
An elder from the Illusion Clan beside him also nodded excitedly: “Indeed, an array that activates on its own without an Array Master—such a thod is terrifying. Imagine, if such cubes flew directly to the opponent’s fleet, deploying our clan’s Illusory Dream Array, then…”
“But what exactly is the function of that thunder grid? I can’t understand.”
“Wait, here’s the explanation. Once covered by the grid, the opponent’s ssages cannot be transmitted—it all makes sense.”
These elders discussed enthusiastically, all astonished by the Huaxia Empire’s thods.
On the other side, the Clan Leaders of the Four Clans also showed joyful expressions.
“Is that the Cloud Boat? It’s terrifying! Can the Cloud Boat still be crafted like that?” War Wolf Clan Leader Lang Zhankuang’s eyes were glowing, eagerly full of desire to possess that warship.
Huan Junli beside him, staring at the Soul Vision Machine, murmured: “I fear we’ve all made a mistake.”
