Chapter 1144: Chapter 1114: Array Pavilion
"What?!"
"Baka!!!"
Hojo Takeshi was about to explode with anger upon seeing the message from his subordinate.
He looked up at the battlefield, and sure enough, at some point, those players from various war zones who came to support were nowhere to be seen.
In the entire battlefield, as far as the eye could see, there were almost only players from the He Clan War Zone.
If it was just a coincidence that Satan J led the players from the United States to Sapporo City, then with King Caesar and others showing up, it was clear that it was not just a simple coincidence.
However, it would take more than an hour to break into the center of Celestial River City.
Conquering Celestial River City clearly couldn’t be abandoned halfway.
Thinking of this, Hojo Takeshi could only instruct his confidant to closely monitor these people’s movements.
There was no other way to deal with it.
Besides, Hojo Takeshi also had a sliver of hope in his heart.
He thought that perhaps these people really were coveting some resources in Sapporo City, which was why this happened.
Compared to the control of Celestial River City, the importance was obviously clear.
As for the possibility of them attacking Sapporo City.
Not only had Hojo Takeshi not considered it, but none of the players from the He Clan had thought about it either.
After all, as the central main city of the He Clan, Sapporo City’s combat power was not something current players could match.
Don’t even mention just those people.
Even if ten times more people came, it would still be in vain.
Since they did not occupy Border City, as long as they dared to attack Sapporo City, Hojo Takeshi could revoke their resurrection privileges in Ueno City.
At that time, if they died, they could only return to their own war zones to resurrect.
With all this back and forth, how could they possibly capture the behemoth that is Sapporo City?
...
...
Meanwhile, Satan J had led his people to a peculiar building beside the central square of Sapporo City, known as the [Array Building].
Surrounding them were those players from the He Clan War Zone who did not go to seize the city.
Everyone seemed curious about the arrival of Satan J and his group.
When Satan J gave the order, nearly ten thousand players from the United States War Zone quickly surrounded the [Array Building].
At that moment, everyone realized something, but they hesitated to be sure.
At the same time, facing this elite group from the United States War Zone, the He Clan players felt a natural sense of inferiority.
As a result, no one dared to ask anything up front.
The [Array Building], as the name suggests: every main city has a defense array.
Perhaps these arrays are not comparable to the [Spirit Awakening Array] of the Floating City.
But when the main city is attacked, activating the defense array provides the city with some defense and buys more time for reinforcements.
Some may say, why didn’t Celestial River City activate its array when it was being attacked?
That’s only because the battlefield of Celestial River City was breached, and the Demon Race would directly appear inside the city; even activating the array would be of no use.
Moreover, at that time, even the City Lord of Celestial River City had fled and abandoned the city; activating the array by then had already lost its significance.
Although the players from the He Clan didn’t know what Satan J and his group from the United States wanted to do.
However, seeing them surround the [Array Building], not all of the He Clan players were fools.
The event had already been announced on the He Clan’s world notice, and many players from the He Clan hurried to Sapporo City.
...
...
While the city became extremely tense due to Satan J’s actions, in a forest outside Sapporo City.
Sweat Dripping and others watched as King Caesar and his group entered the city, all with serious expressions on their faces.
Divine Hall Madman said in disbelief:
"They really came."
At that moment, the first thief of Shengshi Dynasty, Ghost Blade, suddenly appeared among them.
Ghost Blade’s silent arrival startled Sweat Dripping.
Shengshi Drunkard nearby asked:
"So, did you find anything?"
Ghost Blade looked up at the peak of the mountain:
"Those Demon Race members are gathered at the highest point of the mountain."
"But I was worried they’d discover me, so I returned when I saw their shadows from afar."
Upon hearing this, everyone’s heart shook.
Emperor Pu then spoke with great interest, laughing lightly:
"Oh, I see."
Famous Clan Kun Shao beside him looked puzzled:
"What are you thinking, Emperor Pu? Why don’t you tell us?"
Emperor Pu laughed and said:
"I think Satan and the others went into the city to sabotage the [Array Building]."
As soon as he said this, everyone instantly understood his meaning, and Luoshen Liunian’s eyes glimmered:
"The Demon Race plans to coordinate from inside and outside to capture Sapporo City in one fell swoop."
Shengshi Drunkard could only bitterly smile:
"Who could have thought of that."
"Players from various war zones would help the Demon Race to clear the obstacles."
Lost Words analyzed on the side:
"If the defense array were activated normally, the Demon Race would certainly not be able to breach the city quickly."
"If the He Clan players return from Celestial River City as reinforcements, capturing Sapporo City would become increasingly difficult for the Demon Race."
"If they fail to capture Sapporo City, and Celestial River City loses control again."
"The Demon Race would have to return to the battlefield of the [Great Rift Valley]..."
At this point, everyone understood.
It seemed that the Demon Race was determined to take Sapporo City, especially after deciding to abandon Celestial River City.
If the [Array Building] were successfully sabotaged, the defense array of Sapporo City couldn’t be activated.
With the terrifying strength of the Demon Race, combined with interference from various war zones, the fate of Sapporo City was already sealed.
Thinking of this, everyone felt a chill down their spine.
If they hadn’t received Emperor Pu’s intel beforehand, who would have suspected the Demon Race would target Sapporo City?
Sweat Dripping then said:
"So when do we take action?"
All the big shots suddenly fell silent, exchanging glances.
Eventually, it was Luoshen Liunian who spoke up:
"Why not wait for the Demon Race to attract most of the firepower, then we can strike."
"That way, we can also minimize casualties."
This decision was unanimously agreed upon by everyone present.
After all, their goal was simply to rescue someone, not capture the city.
When the time comes, as long as they can rescue Isabelle amidst the chaos, the mission will be over.
As for the fate of Sapporo City...
To be honest.
While some felt sorry for the impending doom of the He Clan, others couldn’t help feeling a certain sense of schadenfreude.
No matter whether it was Hua Country or Russia.
The grudge against the He Clan was long-standing.
Here, no one would stand from the perspective of the Hundred Races to consider the series of issues Sapporo City would face after its fall.
While everyone’s attention was almost entirely drawn to the battle of Celestial River City, most people still did not know that Sapporo City was about to face a grand City Seizing War.
Including Lin Yi, who had just escaped from that void space at the last moment:
"Samson, it’s time for us to settle the score!!!"
