1843 Dealing with
Yin Mo, the second-in-command of the Mundt Gang, had been fighting against the Federation to stop them from setting up the magic array. Both parties were entangled in a battle, but he was suddenly stimulated by the black fog and his strength increased greatly!
The situation instantly reversed!
He could stop them!
Yin Mo quickly assessed the current combat strength of both sides, and an elite light instantly appeared in his eyes.
“Whoosh!!”
Yin Mo sped up and rushed to face the captain of the Federation’s military team.
He struck out with a punch!
Before the fist arrived, the black fog attack triggered by the fist attacked forward first!
“Bang!”
The captain of the Federation army defended the attack with both hands in front of him.
The black fog exploded!
Instantly, the captain felt a sense of weakness in his body.
Oh no!
The influence of the black fog was too great!
He was able to fight Yin Mo with a 60 – 40 ratio just now, but now he was at a disadvantage!
In the conference hall of the Mundt Gang’s encampment, Meng Ruhui saw the black fog erupting in the distance. His eyes were fixed on it, and his eyes were filled with astonishment.
That position was…
How could there be such a strong spiritual energy fluctuation?
Suddenly, Meng Ruhui thought of Aktu who had suggested to him to improve the magic array!
It was Fang Heng!
Meng Ruhui didn’t have much hope at first. He just wanted to try his luck and make a big deal out of it.
They were already in a desperate situation and could face death at any moment.
However, Fang Heng’s successful modification of the magic array allowed them to successfully extend their lives!
“I’ll go find Fang Heng. The rest of you stay here and guard the holy land.”
“Understood!”
Meng Ruhui could no longer care about protecting the holy land. He immediately went to look for Fang Heng after saying that.
He urgently needed to know how Fang Heng did it!
If they could borrow the power of the magic array to simulate spiritual energy to activate the magic array and significantly increase the efficiency of the ritual, they might even be able to break through the Federation’s blockade this time!
Even…
He had completely removed the seal in the holy land!
Outside the encampment, seeing the beams of Holy Light that invaded the interior of the Mundt Gang’s base dimming and gradually coming to a halt, the members of the Federation team fell silent.
They had thought that victory was in their hands, but they did not expect a thick black fog to seep out at the last moment.
Judging from the feedback from the holy light pillar, the situation was very bad.
Seeing this, the archbishop of the Holy Court, Robert, had a solemn look on his face.
Commander Zhou Chen stared at the interior of the encampment and asked in a deep voice, “Archbishop Robert, if we choose to attack now, what are our chances of winning?”
Robert frowned.
He thought carefully and replied, “The chances of winning are not low, but I don’t recommend attacking by force.”
“Why?”
Archbishop Robert raised his head again. He looked at the thick black fog that could not be dispersed. He uttered in a deep voice, “I’m not worried about the Mundt Gang. I’m worried about the game rift.”
“The source of the black fog comes from the game rift. The density of the black fog has far exceeded the warning line. In the worst-case scenario, if the enemy controls the opening of the game rift…”
The archbishop did not continue, but the meaning was already very clear.
It was very likely that the Mundt Gang had already found a way to control the game rift. What if they forced the other faction into a corner and destroyed the game rift completely?
At that time, the problem would not be so easy.
Kleinman and the leader of the Federation’s Inspection Bureau looked at each other.
Now, they realized it.
The gravity of the matter increased once again.
Originally, the mission objective was to capture the extremely dangerous demi-humans.
Now, it had become a possible mutation of the game rift.
He needed to be extra cautious when dealing with this matter.
No one wanted to be the last one to take the blame.
“It involves the mutation of the game rift. We have to be prepared for the worst.”
“Archbishop, do you have any solution…”
“Yes.” The archbishop pondered for a moment and said, “I suggest a temporary retreat.”
While everyone was discussing, one of the pillars of light that kept flickering in the cave finally lost its luster.
This meant that one of the pillars had been destroyed by the Mundt Gang.
Everyone’s heart sank.
Zhou Chen shook his head when he saw this and said, “Forget it, let’s retreat first.”
He had already lost a movable alchemy stone slab, and the entire large-scale magic array couldn’t be completed. There was no point in continuing.
“I’ve already contacted the headquarters of the Holy Court. They’re also very concerned about the black fog that erupted here. Oracle Autolia is already on her way here.”
“You mean Lord Autolia?”
When everyone heard this, their eyes could not help but flash with surprise.
In the real world, the Holy Court had three other powerful figures besides the Holy Court’s Pope.
Oracle Autolia, the controller of the holy weapon, the Silent Libra.
She had once destroyed a high-level world’s game rift single-handedly.
From then on, he became famous.
Many people had heard of her name.
He did not expect her to be on her way.
With Autolia’s personal arrival, the problem of the black fog should be properly suppressed.
“Yes, this matter is very important. Only by using the holy weapon to suppress it can we ensure that the game rift is safe.”
“With the help of the oracle, we will be able to take down the base of the Mundt Gang.”
The archbishop continued, “To prevent the aura from spreading further, we will continue to set up a magic array around the perimeter to prevent the Mundt Gang from escaping.”
The military commander, Zhou Chen, thought about it and nodded, “Alright, we’ll give them one more day.”
The archbishop gestured for the believers to control the magic array outside the camp of the Mundt Gang to emit intermittent light, sending a signal to the infiltration teams to retreat.
Zhou Chen could choose to continue attacking.
There was indeed a chance to annihilate the Mundt Gang.
The military didn’t want to see such casualties.
If there was a safer way, Zhou Chen was not willing to risk his subordinates’ lives.
Soon, the teams retreated from the encampment.
Many soldiers were slightly injured and were taken for treatment.
The leader of a conflict team, Ravi, retreated to the outside world with the guardian alchemy stone slab and followed Zhou Chen. He said, “Sir, there’s something I need to report.”
As he spoke, Ravi whispered a few words into Zhou Chen’s ear.
Zhou Chen’s eyes lit up when he heard Ravi’s report. He asked softly, “This is a serious matter. Are you sure it’s reliable?”
“I’m sure. Please give me a chance, sir! We must take them down!”
“Good, very good.”
Zhou Chen nodded. He admired Zhou Chen’s drive to climb up and was willing to give him a chance. He nodded and said,” You will be in charge of this operation. Act according to the circumstances and ensure that the plan succeeds.”
“Thank you for your nurturing, sir!”
Ravi was excited. He cupped his fists and thanked him before immediately going down to organize the operation.
Kleinman noticed Zhou Chen’s whispers and asked, “Officer Zhou, from the looks of it, do you have any new plans?”
Zhou Chen looked as if he had everything under control. He kept them in suspense and said, “A hard fortress is often broken through from the inside.”
If everything went smoothly, they might not have to wait for the reinforcements from the Holy Court. They could solve the problem of the black fog one step ahead of time.
