Chapter 469: 468, [Illusion Duel] (XI): The War Intensifies _1
 

Alex and ChungSeong! Seong! led their army swiftly south, marching at breakneck speed toward the coordinates Boss Ke had given them.

During their march, they encountered cavalry scouts sent out by Denial of Clothes, knowing that Denial of Clothes would also be leading his troops to the south in support.

So, they instructed the mages in their army to cast speed-enhancing spells, racing south at the fastest pace, striving to reach the destination before Denial of Clothes could.

Meanwhile, they were actively discussing strategies while on the move.

At present, Alex held a hand-drawn sketch map showing the areas surveyed by their scouts. The locations of the camps, gold mines and strongholds were clearly marked.

They had also dispatched cavalry to scout the southwestern region, and several key strategic points were marked on the map.

Alex pointed to a gold mine at the bottom left corner of the map, saying to ChungSeong! Seong!: “The coordinates Nemesis sent overlap with this gold mine. This means Sandwich Sugar is not at the stronghold, but is lingering around the gold mine.”

ChungSeong! Seong! nodded: “If they are at the gold mine, it will be much easier to deal with them. In the upcoming battle, we don’t need to do much, just kill them outright.”

“That’s exactly what I thought.” Alex brushed her hair back. “But before we head to the target location, I suggest we first stop by here.”

Alex pointed at the [Flame Camp] marked on the map.

“[Flame Camp]?” ChungSeong! Seong! furrowed his brow: “Going there means we can’t travel in a straight line which will affect our marching efficiency!”

“No worries, just listen to my analysis.” Alex said seriously: “First, by going to the [Flame Camp], we can convert all our gold into troops, thus enhancing our army’s combat power;

“Second, Sandwich Sugar is so close to this camp, he will definitely go there to recruit troops. If we check the exchange list at Flame Camp, we can guess which type of troops he recruited.”

Thinking it over, ChungSeong! Seong! finally answered: “Alright, then we do as you say.”

…

Three minutes later, Alex and ChungSeong! Seong! arrived at the [Flame Camp].

After checking the camp’s exchange list, Alex nodded: “According to my calculation, the troops Sandwich Sugar recruited should be ‘Flaming Guardian Knights’. These troops have the highest defensive power in the camp and are perfectly suited to withstand our troops’ charges.”

ChungSeong! Seong! thought for a moment and agreed: “I also think so. It’s been 6 minutes since the start of the game. Assuming they have 3 mines, till now they must have gained 3000 gold, which is equivalent to 10 ‘Flaming Guardian Knights’.”

Alex shook her head: “Definitely not that many. They had to explore for mines at the start. They could at most have 8-9 ‘Flaming Guardian Knights’.”

ChungSeong! Seong!: “Then, what kind of troops should we exchange for?”

“Exchange for this, [Flame Magician].” Alex confidently marked it on the list, and a mage clad in red magician robes appeared at their side.

“Mages overcome heavily armored knights. Their troops of Guardian Knights can’t handle even one of our mages.” Alex was full of confidence.

ChungSeong! Seong! opened his mouth, but didn’t say anything.

Alex, this woman, made decisions without his consent, which irritated him.

But considering she was a noble white woman, he didn’t show his annoyance.

“Since we’ve exchanged, let’s move on.” He stated bluntly.

…

Half a minute later, at coordinates [324,223], Alex and ChungSeong! Seong!’s troops were just the last 100 meters away from Sandwich Sugar’s force of 2000.

Both Alex and ChungSeong! Seong! were surprised, they exchanged a shocked glance.

Sandwich Sugar had remained stationary, and the Flaming Guardian Knights they speculated he had exchanged for were not found among his ranks. What exactly was happening?

Could it be that he had already given up on the game and stopped fighting back?

But it didn’t take them long to realize that this was not the case.

Because Sandwich Sugar, who was clad in a red and blue magician robe, stepped up to the front of his team, waving his magic wand high and laughing at them: “You’ve been fooled!”

“What?” Alex and ChungSeong! Seong! were both taken aback.

Immediately afterward, earth-shattering battle cries echoed from the valley on the side.

A group of cavalry about a hundred strong, stepping on a speed-enhancing magic circle, charged into their lines of vulnerable archers and priests like low-flying missiles.

Moreover, following the cavalry was a round of tremors from the ground they had just crossed. 24 Flaming Skeleton Archers emerged from the ground.

The greatest advantage of the undead Flaming Skeleton Archers was that they didn’t need to breathe and could hide underground for a long time.

Now that they had emerged from the ground, they posed an immediate threat to Alex’s troops.

“All ranged professionals, listen to my command! Concentrate fire on the ‘Flame Magician’ at the center of the mage group!” Denial of Clothes surveyed the surroundings and immediately noticed the greatest threat of the Flame Magician.

The Flame Magician was a fourth level unit, and as a fire mage, he was best at dealing widespread damage with his spells. If they allowed him to attack without pressure, the consequences would be unthinkable. He needed to be removed first.

Receiving the commander’s command, the archer squad, the mage group and the 24 Flaming Skeleton Archers launched an attack on the Flame Magician at the same time.

A storm of spells and arrows rained down onto the Flame Magician.

Alex was startled.

In a hurry, she commanded the priests and mage groups to cast layers of spell shields to protect the Flame Magician.

However, after all, archers are a bane for mages. The simultaneous shots from the 24 third-level Flaming Skeleton Archers were incredibly powerful!

Under the command of Denial of Clothes, the ranged units released three rounds of volleys in succession. The knights also rushed into the crowd as if flying, piercing their sharp lances mercilessly onto the enemy’s spell shield.

The spell shield couldn’t cope with such a high amount of physical damage, and was shattered on the arrival of the third round of shooting.

The Flame Magician tried his best to defend, but he finally died under the fourth volleys from the Flaming Skeleton Archers.

The balance of victory began to tilt towards the side of Denial of Clothes and Sandwich Sugar.

…

Facing this sudden turn of events, ChungSeong! Seong! did not panic, but instead calmed down.

“Now, all troops, listen to my command!” ChungSeong! Seong! shouted loudly: “Everyone charge forward disregarding your safety to kill Sandwich Sugar! All of you, lock your targets on Sandwich Sugar!”

“Understood!” The soldiers and knights around ChungSeong! Seong! ignored their precarious situation at the rear, gritted their teeth, and launched an all-out charge toward the position where Sandwich Sugar was stationed.

Alex, however, glared at ChungSeong! Seong! with resentment. This despicable South Stick man dared to give orders over her, did he not understand the concept of hierarchy?

But she also understood that ChungSeong! Seong! was right, so she didn’t say anything further and urged her troops towards Sandwich Sugar.

Sandwich Sugar only had a force of 2000 around him. As long as they took him down, they would win!
