Chapter 1226  Mercenary

Zhang Mengyao immediately ordered tight security on the portal as soon as they returned from Lisbon. Lu An left with the prisoners along with Viona and Yeon Hee while Zhang Mengyao held another meeting. She informed everyone what she encountered on the other side and asked for the other's opinions on how to handle the situation.

"Should we destroy the portal?" Wei Xi was quite hesitant, but he felt like destroying the portal might be the safe choice. That way the other side could not get to them.

"The portal is important. While they can get into our castle, we can also utilize the portal to get into them. No, I think we can use the portal to take over Lisbon. We take Lisbon back from them, and we can use Lisbon as our base to take the initiative to attack them instead of waiting for them to attack us," Virion immediately opposed the idea of destroying the portal. He felt like the portal might be the key to the war.

"I agree with Virion. Taking Lisbon for ourselves then we can take the initiative from there. However, I think we should wait for Lu An before making the decision. We need information to make our next move," Marshal Alton supported Virion's idea.

"Then we will wait for Lu An before we decide what to do with the portal," Zhang Mengyao nodded, "What about their Primordial Rank, Marshal Alton? Are they stronger or are they the same as the ones you killed in the Dimensional Tower?"

"They are about the same, but I don't think they are the main reinforcement from the Divine Church. They are not the Holy Knight, and they are also not part of the Federation of Allurion," Marshal Alton furrowed his brows as he realized something fishy. The people of the federation were a non-human race, either elves or beastmen. However, the one they faced was human, and they were not Holy Knights either.

"They are mercenaries hired by The Federation of Allurion. They smuggled ten thousand mercenaries in disguise, and more mercenaries will come for Earth," Lu An came out of the shadows and told them the information he got from the prisoners.

"What about the World Government's movement? Do the mercenaries know something about their plan? Like how they will fight us?" Zhang Mengyao furrowed her brow, not expecting the people they fought, were mercenaries. If not for Marshal Alton, she would not notice it.

"They will not attack us," Lu An shook his head, "They don't plan on attacking us, but they plan to take the unconquered territories. At least, that's the task of the mercenaries."

"As for the Belem Guild. They are killed in the surprise attack by the mercenary. All fighters were killed by them.

"I see…." Zhang Mengyao let out a sigh, but it was not the time to dwell on the dead. She turned toward Marshal Alton, "Then we should take Lisbon, we will take the initiative instead of letting them take all the territories."

Marshal Alton nodded and agreed with the direction. They did not know why they chose to take all the territories despite the reinforcement they had, but whatever the World Government planned, they needed to disrupt their plan.

"Alright, we will split the force. The Tarrior will focus on China and the surrounding countries while Marshal Alton will lead the Beast Coven and The Elven Kingdom to Lisbon. Lu An will help bring his team to help you gather the information," Zhang Mengyao split the force.

Then She turned toward the sub-region, "What about Korea? Have you taken all territories in your country, General Park Nam Hoon?" Park Nam Hoon, the former guild leader of the Legion Guild, who was now taking up a General position in the Tang Empire was in charge of Korea's territory.

"I apologize, Ma'am. We only take half of the smart base in South Korea, and we haven't touched any territories in the north," Park Nam Hoon bowed his head.

"What's wrong? Do you lack people? Do you need help?" Zhang Mengyao turned toward Lu An, "What about The Lycasian? Are they ready yet? Can we use them to help General Park Nam Hoon?"

Park Nam Hoon was not given a chance to respond, he indeed needed a hand to capture all territories in his country. But there was a drawback with the help, that would take the chance for his people. More people would come, meaning less chance for his people to grow with more people coming in. However, this was a special circumstance, and he could not reject the help.

"Not yet. They have taken the class and talent, but they are still in the advancement trial. It will take another month or even even a few months before they are ready to join the battlefield," Lu An shook his head, "We can use the Fogged Ape though. Wen and Kairu also have returned, we can send them to help General Park Nam Hoon."

Wen was the Jade Eagle and Kairu was The Flaming Lion from the same world as Elinova. The former Black Dragon's subordinates who served Tang Shaoyang after the Black Dragon died from inheriting the bloodline to Tang Shaoyang. They were known as the Wandering Beasts of the Tang Empire and were traveling all over the Earth to get stronger.

"Good, then we will dispatch them to Korea. I don't know why they want the territories, so we will capture as many territories, not just to disrupt their plan but also the first step for us to rule the Earth," Zhang Mengyao then turned toward the two leaders of Asahi Region, Japan. Izuhara Tachibana and Kado Taukai were the leading figures for the Japan, Asahi Region, "What about Japan?"

"We have taken more than half the cities in Japan. We just need time to capture all territories, Ma'am," Izuhara Tachibana responded politely.

Zhang Mengyao continued with the other sub-regions, making sure for them to capture the available territories. This was the last plan when they decided to pull out from the Dimensional Tower, taking over Earth. She was still in the dark about the situation on the America side. She did not touch that side because they were in a temporary alliance with the First Order Guild who were rooted in North America. Out of goodwill, the Tang Empire will not touch that side unless the First Order Guild asked for help which she predicted soon. Saint Guild and Amazon Guild were from the same continent, and with the additional mercenary, the First Order Guild would not be able to hold out against them.
