Shadow Hack - Chapter 621
Chapter 621: Northen Land of Ice
In the Flying Cloud City, people had already begun to prepare for war with great fanfare. They weren’t from the same plane of Earth, strictly speaking, and weren’t affiliated to any power on it.
Instead, they were the powers of a region of one of the planes among the sixty-six of them who had dispatched countless flux experts with the intention of launching a large scale attack on Lucky Wind City.
This was a historic moment for them. If they could wipe out Lucky Wind City, they would successfully become its and even the Earth’s masters. With time, they could also enjoy the resources of this plane.
Moreover, all the powers and people of Earth would be under their command!
Jade Face Master and Green Woods Manor Master led the countless flux experts in the vicinity of Lucky Wind City to launch a sneak attack.
In the meantime, Black Mountain’s old goblin would draw out the people of Lucky Wind City from the front. As for the Red Bearded Saint, he was at the rear of Lucky Wind City, intending to sever their path of retreat.
The four had investigated for a very long and planned meticulously before deciding on this strategy.
If Li Yunmu was present, their attempt would have been impossible, and they knew it very well. But with Li Yunmu being gone, they looked upon Lin Yuerou, that little lassie, with quite a lot of disdain.
A woman sitting in the position of a city lord seemed quite flashy, and in their eyes, she wasn’t qualified to become the hegemon of this region.
They felt that with her watching over them, Lucky Wind City would only be formidable in appearance. Although its supreme transcending experts possessed tyrannical strength, their numbers were pitifully low. If that woman thought that Lucky Wind City could resist the magnificent army by just relying on its top people, it was simply a joke.
A crisis had come at Lucky Wind City from all directions, but there was still no movement within it. Regardless of how much Black Mountain’s old goblin coerced the people of Lucky Wind City to come out, they remained aloof like a ghost town!
“What’s the situation?”
Black Mountain’s old goblin became somewhat suspicious. This was a strategy decided upon after negotiation by all of them, so how could Lucky Wind City become empty all of a sudden? Could they be pretending?
Black Mountain’s old ghost didn’t dare to launch a large scale attack and could only continue to stand lifelessly in front of Lucky Wind City. In the end, he decided to break all the defensive mechanisms in the surroundings before leading his men to forcefully enter the city.
But what left him astonished was that Lucky Wind City’s originally invulnerable defenses were broken effortlessly.
This also went without a hitch?
Black Mountain’s old goblin stood at the gate of the city, hesitant once more. Should they attack or retreat? He found himself in a situation where he could neither advance nor retreat.
Jade Face Master and Green Wood Manor Master, who had been waiting to launch a sneak attack, began to grow impatient.
“What is Black Mountain’s old goblin doing? Why hasn’t he launched the attack until now? Is it possible that he is waiting for us to attack first?”
“There’s something strange going on in this Lucky Wind City! How could everything proceed so smoothly? Is it possible that she is using the empty city strategy, where she left the city unattended hoping that we will suspect an ambush?”
Jade Face Master narrowed his eyes and stated, “What sort of war strategies could this silly little girl understand? Hurry up! The more you delay the battle, the deeper we’ll sink into their trap!”
Hearing the chiding by Jade Face Master, Black Mountain’s old goblin, who had been hesitating for a long time, led his flux experts into the city.
But what caused him to panic was that when they entered, several transcending level experts appeared before they had even stabilized themselves. The ambushers were all elites, and the people led by Black Mountain’s old goblin were caught off guard.
The situation of the battle was reversed instantly!
“Damn, we have fallen for their trap! This little girl—”
Before he could even finish his sentence, the four shadows appeared before him. They were Li Yun, Li Fend, Li De, and Li Tian left behind by Li Yunmu. They appeared like demons and surrounded Black Mountain’s old ghost.
Although his strength couldn’t compare to that of Battle God or Blade Master, he was still confident in himself. Yet he and the powers with which he had allied that were good at strategy and skillful in scheming had fallen for the trap set by the little girl.
Jade Face Master and Green Wood Manor Master were extremely shocked. The city lord of Lucky Wind City hadn’t relied on brute force to crush the opponent, but instead used strategy and tactics! This knowledge left them panicked!
“Quick, flee! The present Lucky Wind City isn’t the same as the one which relied only on brute force!”
Green Woods Manor Master hadn’t finished speaking when continuous shouts rang out all around him. The flux experts attacking the city had been encircled and annihilated while the ambush armies were outflanked by a group of people from both sides in a way that not a single person could escape.
Red Beard Saint who had been stationed at the rear of Lucky Wind City to cut off further reinforcement was also caught by vampires who had surrounded him promptly.
The head of vampires laughed heartily. “Just as the city lord anticipated, you ants from another plane joined forces to stand on equal footing with our plane?”
Black Mountain’s old goblin shook from head to toe when he saw the little girl Lin Yuerou appear at the center of the battlefield without the protection of any supreme transcending level experts.
She coldly snorted and stated, “Your thoughts to attack our Lucky Wind City have been seen through a long time ago. So I laid this inescapable net, waiting for you all to walk right into it. Now, are you convinced?”
The people were naturally convinced. When Li Yunmu was present, they had been suppressed by force. When they found the opportunity at the time Li Yunmu wasn’t around, they were surprisingly proved inferior in terms of intelligence as well!
Feeling ashamed, Black Mountain’s old goblin said with a sigh, “Heavens didn’t support me!”
Lin Yuerou waved her hand. “I will let you all do the rest.”
Li Yun, Li De, Li Feng, and Li Tian replied positively and tied up all those who had launched the surprise attack, taking them as captives.
As for the other flux experts, all those who surrendered and paid allegiance to Lucky Wind City lived, while others died.
Upon hearing such choices, all the flux experts naturally surrendered. Because of that, Lucky Wind City expanded, and their military force also grew much stronger. This was of great significance for the future of the city.
Li Yun, Li Tian, Li De, and Li Feng had followed Lin Yuerou’s arrangement. All of them wondered where she had obtained the information that the people of the other planes with ulterior motives would launch a surprise attack. The only reason the four had resisted their desire to attack was because of their complete confidence in her.
Li Yunmu’s choice hadn’t been wrong. With the arrival of Lin Yuerou, Lucky Wind City became even more stable. Its influence spread even farther, and the right to proclaim itself as the hegemon of the sixty-six projection planes was just around the corner.
Black Mountain’s old goblin, Jade Face Master, Green Woods Manor Master and Red Beard Saint were brought to Lucky Wind City and put in front of Lin Yuerou.
“Do you still intend to stand against our supreme transcending level experts?”
