Apocalypse Descent: Farming with My Harem - Chapter 863: 326: Arrival at the Battlefield, the Light Church's Plan
Chapter 863: Chapter 326: Arrival at the Battlefield, the Light Church’s Plan
“What are they doing?” Cao Xing felt a bit puzzled.
At the same time, Sarah’s report sounded in his ear.
“At the foot of this mountain, there’s an abandoned mine, the temperature inside is tolerable, we can use it as a temporary shelter.”
Hearing this, the doubt in Cao Xing’s eyes disappeared and was replaced by a look of delight.
“Well done, Sarah, we’re coming over now.”
With these words, he led a dozen or so of his experts and rushed all the way to the foot of the mountain.
…
…
At this moment, in the legion on the plain below.
Tens of thousands of soldiers stood in place, looking at the giant city in front of them but had yet to launch an attack, appearing somewhat anxious.
After all, this time, they made ample preparations to erase the shame of the past!
They wanted to capture Dorun Lake City with the most overwhelming stance.
However, without the generals’ orders, all of them could only remain on standby in place.
In the war chariot at the center of the army.
Two generals sat face to face, seemingly discussing the plan ahead.
The one named General Kro asked straightforwardly: “General Tasid, when are we launching the attack?”
“The army arrived in the morning, and now both the Youlan Kingdom and Nakrode Kingdom are watching us.”
“The King is also waiting for our news.”
However, the one called General Tasid calmly said: “General Kro, don’t be in a hurry.”
“I am sending people to investigate the exact situation inside the city to see if the Light Church has any hidden tricks.”
“Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we achieve a hundred victories in a hundred battles, right?”
Upon hearing this, General Kro across from him asked again: “Hasn’t it been confirmed that there are only the Alien Ghost Army and three Red Robed Bishops in the city?”
“With the forces we brought, along with the Frost Blue Knight Order, it is enough to crush them head-on.”
“What is there left to investigate?”
Last time he dared to launch an attack with just over 20,000 men.
This time, with over 40,000 Heavy Infantry on our side, he was still probing.
This made Kro feel that Tasid was a bit too cautious.
Hearing the other’s questioning, General Tasid’s face showed a slight displeasure.
But he did not lose his temper and instead said: “General Kro, my way of warfare is different from yours, I like to wage wars with 100% confidence,”
“This way, we can minimize the loss ratio.”
“Moreover, the Light Church has a vast influence and has long been rooted in our Ice Crystal Kingdom, who knows if they have other tricks up their sleeves.”
“Does General Kro want to be caught off guard like last time and let the soldiers sacrifice their lives?”
Upon hearing this, General Kro’s face turned somewhat stifled.
The loss from the previous defeat was too great.
If it weren’t for the war at Dorun Lake City requiring him now.
Even removing his general rank would be lenient, and execution was not out of the possibility.
Mentioning this made his face look a bit unpleasant.
Tasid did not overly push and spoke again: “Alright, General Kro, let’s wait a bit longer.”
“After the investigation is complete, I will regain Dorun Lake City with a thunderous momentum.”
Hearing these words, General Kro sighed, but could only leave this place.
Moments later, Tasid looked at Dorun Lake City, a hint of worry appearing in his eyes.
He thought to himself: “Sigh… The Light Seed asked me to delay the army’s attack time as much as possible, I see this can’t be delayed for many more days…”
“And after this time, I suppose my identity won’t be hidden any longer…”
…
…
Meanwhile.
Cao Xing and others, under Sarah’s guidance, had already arrived at the abandoned mine she mentioned.
They had Blom and Assam, two strongmen, clear the rubble from the mine entrance, and they went inside.
As Sarah said, the temperature inside the mine was -12℃, much warmer than outside.
Lighting a torch or setting up a tent would make it even warmer.
Cao Xing praised: “This place is quite nice, the space is also spacious, we’ll use this as a temporary base.”
He first connected with Bojie through communication and informed him of the abandoned mine’s location.
Then he looked at his other team members.
“Sarah, there’s another task that may trouble you.”
The Dark Elf Assassin appeared, then lightly shook her head and said: “Serving the Lord is my mission, please command as you wish.”
Hearing her firm response, Cao Xing also felt a sense of gratitude.
Throughout the journey, Sarah was responsible for reconnaissance, combat, and exploration, truly all-around.
And she worked tirelessly, never saying a word more about the tasks Cao Xing assigned, always completing them at the fastest speed.
Cao Xing continued: “I now need you to probe near Dorun Lake City, check that Barrier for any weak spots.”
“If there aren’t any, then observe the defenses inside the city.”
To infiltrate that Giant City, the Barrier was a hurdle Cao Xing had to face.
But through the last battle, everyone knew that the Barrier’s defensive power was extremely strong.
Even under the heavy bombardment of those large siege devices, it took such a long time to shatter.
With Cao Xing’s power, if he were to forcefully attack, who knows how long it would take.
Moreover, there was a risk of exposure.
Therefore, Sarah’s task was very important, directly determining Cao Xing’s subsequent action plan.
Of course, if there really was no breakthrough point, it was fine, after all, Cao Xing still had a [Dark Crystal Ball] to open a Teleportation Gate.
But this Teleportation Gate only existed for 60 seconds, so he would have to find a way to get out then.
