Collected (4K)_1
For many lords and generals, being defeated and eliminated doesn’t mean the battle is completely over.
Even in defeat, they still have their missions.
That is to report their experiences in the Chaos Forest, compile valuable information, and somehow deliver it to the lords who are still fighting inside.
For instance, information can be passed on to the internal lords through the heroes outside the battlefield.
Take the rumor about the ‘Five Great Terrors’ for example. Its authenticity is debatable, but many lords are wary about it, aware that there’s no smoke without fire.
“ATree Demon Trap—is it from the Shen Mu Dynasty’s team?”
“Arrow of the Pole Star…”
Someone looked towards the strongmen of the Yongxing Empire.
The Epic Life ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’ is indeed one of their trademarks, with them having the ability to nurture or recruit, to a limited extent, the ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’ via inheritance and targeted promotion.
But,
The strongman of Yongxing remained silent. He just glanced to the side where the legendary strongman ‘Saint of Holy Light’, under his command, was leading a group of priest and nun class experts who had great healing abilities, to heal the injuries of the exiting lords and their soldiers.
One of them was the ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’ from the Thirty-Sixth Princess’s team, who was severely injured.
Although the Thirty-Sixth Princess is still fighting, her trump card, the ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’, has been tragically eliminated.
The process…
The ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’ was reluctant to talk about it, and the team leader couldn’t delve too deep. After all, he was just a strongman of the Empire, whereas the ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’ was a direct subordinate of the princess.
“Since the ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’ from the Thirty-Sixth Princess has been eliminated, then…”
“There must be another ‘Arrow of the Pole Star’ among the princes and princesses!”
The team leader could only think of this possibility.
And that’s not a small one.
After all, as I said, he is merely a team leader, responsible for protecting the princes and princesses. He doesn’t know or care to ask about their troops, about how many Epics they have.
It’s enough for him to live peacefully and collect bonuses.
The Tai Xuan Alliance’s team leaders are pondering.
They feel that one or two descriptions among the ‘Five Great Terrors’ seem a bit similar to the Tianyuan lord’s soldiers?
Is it an illusion?
But speaking of which…
They’re not sure about other nations, but they know that all of Tianyuan’s soldiers are still in place, which was somewhat unexpected.
“Could it be…”
“No no, can’t overthink this. Tianyuan might just be a master at biding his time.”
Surviving for a long time doesn’t necessarily mean gaining more places.
But of course, being able to survive longer does represent competence—the ability to gather intelligence at the hands of each team is nothing to be scoffed at.
While the leaders were thinking this, another general got teleported out from the starting point of Tai Xuan.
It was a massive silhouette.
Its scales were broken, its wings were chopped in half, and its soul flame was dimming as it collapsed on the ground.
“It’s Tianyuan’s Frost Giant Dragon!”
“It seems that Tianyuan’s situation isn’t very optimistic either.”
The Frost Giant Dragon should be able to place in the top three, if not the first, among Tianyuan’s troops.
It’s an Epic of the Dragon Series, isn’t it?
“Sario is indeed not suitable in such an environment as the Giant Forest.
Moreover, it’s better at sieges, dealing with large numbers of enemies that aren’t strong enough,” Mu Yuan contemplated.
Of course, the fact that Sario was eliminated had something to do with it being too flamboyant.
One of the Five Great Terrors, indeed so.
There are at least seven, eight, or nine squads in this Chaos Forest that are stronger than Sario + Rakshasa, and they’re not like the combo of Tree Demon Granny and Hong Yi, who can hide, fight, and outlast.
Due to its high-profile nature, the Frost Giant Dragon, Sario, faced concentrated fire.
Its gigantic figure was extremely conspicuous, and it could not escape even if it wanted to. Therefore, Rakshasa decisively abandoned its team… not quite, Rakshasa decisively carried the strategic object and while Sario was attracting enemy fire, turned into smoke and retreated.
Successfully bringing the object back to Mu Yuan.
This way, Sario has completed its mission; it could peace out… back to the territory to help with killing the Monster Tide.
In the contrived day and a half, Mu Yuan had several encounters with Duolai, Dead Bone, Hong Yi, and several other squads, taking the fully fused objects from them.
His currently formulated strategy was:
To be patient, aiming to preserve the objects he had; other teams could make a big fuss and even if they were defeated and eliminated, their losses would be tolerable.
For such rumors like the Five Great Terrors, lords from strong countries didn’t really believe them.
Especially the royal family members from Yongxing and Shen Mu.
However,
“One of the Five Great Terrors rumored in the outside world is an undead squad that appears plain, likes to fish, and likes to play the fool.”
“I think we might have met him.”
“Lord Black Cloak!”
A lord from a powerful nation murmured.
Another lord was by his side.
After meeting, they teamed up and started to take actions together. They had already collected some objects, and as time went by, they weren’t planning to fight for the scrolls anymore; their current tactic was to survive.
For this reason, their two semi-destroyed squads combined, in order to withstand the mop-ups by the Yongxing and Shen Mu Dynasty in the late game.
However, when they found out about the glow of the fused object, they couldn’t resist coming closer to take a look.
“It’s a trap!”
“Retreat, retreat!”
“Wait, you call this plain-looking undead squad? Damn!”
From the pitch-black cloak of this Lord Black Cloak, spreading out like a shadow, two Bone Dragons and several Vampires suddenly flew out.
