Zhang Yun knew that it was useless to think blindly here.
The current most important thing was to take advantage of his second round. He must prepare the traps and be ready to ambush the purple-robed mage.
So…
Zhang Yun chose Option C.
He told Fjolm and Kanan not to care about the details.
As soon as possible, the Battle Conference Room must be modified according to Zhang Yun's instructions.
The most trustworthy group of core members was also gathered to train and placed in a formation that would surround the assassin without disclosing the truth.
After all...
During the second round, the purple-robed mage was able to accurately find Zhang Yun and Fjolm's position and instantly teleport behind them.
There should be a mole who gave out the information…
Otherwise, it was too ridiculous.
With your command and the hard work of the Shadow Soldiers, the conference room in the stronghold of the Silver Wolf Bandits had been secretly transformed into the 'Feast at Swan Goose Gate' that was full of traps and secret passages. As long as the purple-robed mage dared to teleport inside, he would immediately be barraged by long-ranged firepower from all directions and surrounded by an overwhelming number of Shadow Soldiers.
[At the same time, in order to confuse the purple-robed mage and the mole, you and Fjolm would rest in the conference room every night to act like a couple and discuss military affairs on the bed in the conference room every day.]
[Hard work soon paid off. At about the same time as the last round, the purple-robed mage teleported into the meeting room again and attempted to kill the leader of the Revolutionary Army.]
[But this time, the mage miscalculated. He thought he would see you and Fjolm mentally planning, but he didn't expect to see hidden arrows flying at him from all directions.]
Moreover, in addition to the crossbow mechanism in the room, the Shadow Soldiers who suddenly stood up from the floor also made the purple-robed mage deeply realize that his actions had been completely seen through by you...
The purple-robed mage frowned and waved his hand. Without any incantations, he summoned a dark magic barrier that wrapped around him and blocked all the arrows.
"You guys? How did you know I would come?"
Zhang Yun and Fjolm, who were hiding in the secret chamber, didn't appear to answer the purple-robed mage's question. Instead, they pulled the bell tied to the beam on the side and let the lying-in-wait Hero Kanan appear.
Looking at Kanan who walked out of the secret passage, the purple-robed mage's furrowed brows suddenly relaxed, as if he realized something.
"Kanan…did you discover my hidden 'Teleportation' ability long ago?"
Hero Kanan didn't answer this question. Instead, he raised the red sword in his hand and turned into a crimson meteor, ruthlessly stabbing toward the purple-robed mage's chest.
At the same time, the group of long-ranged professionals from the Silver Wolf Revolutionary Army who had received the leader's signal also barged into the meeting room with all kinds of long-ranged weapons. They surrounded the door.
There were also the Shadow Soldiers who had appeared earlier.
Together with the long-ranged professionals of the Silver Wolf Revolutionary Army, they stood in front of them like dark shields, protecting them closely. They did not participate in the high-end confrontation between the Five Dragon Generals.
"Hehe. It's not you. It shouldn't be that Head Commander Fjolm either. In that case, there's only one person left. There's no record of him, and he suddenly appeared in front of the world. He was known as the Shadow Demon…"
As the mage spoke, Kanan had already rushed to the purple-robed mage's face and buried the red sword into the purple-robed mage's chest. It went through the mage's entire body, causing blood to spurt out from his back.
Kanan looked at the purple-robed mage who had been pierced through the heart by his sword in surprise.
"Nesia...are you not going to resist?"
Nesia was one of the Five Dragon Generals of the Prongia Empire. His code name was 'Mage'. On the surface, he was a 'Dark Mage' who mastered dark magic, but he had the special ability of teleporting.
Nesia revealed a helpless smile.
"Resist? Is there any use? Even if I'm lucky enough to defeat you, the professionals in the Ice Kingdom's Revolutionary Army will not let me leave this place safely, right?"
Nesia asked, "I just want to know one thing. How did that guy called Yun discover my secret and guess that I would come here?"
Zhang Yun was speechless.
Why?
Of course, it was because he had a cheat!
But, did Nesia think Zhang Yun would profess the truth before the former succumbed to death?
Zhang Yun could only apologize.
Only he would know the truth!
Idiots always died from talking too much!
So...Shadow Soldiers! All of you! Make your move!
Kill Nesia!
As soon as the order was given, the Shadow Soldiers surrounding Nesia collectively drew their weapons at their waists and rushed toward Nesia. They cut him into eight pieces.
The Mage of the Five Dragon Generals, Nesia!
Dead!
[With careful planning and ambush, you killed one of the Five Dragon Generals, Mage Nesia. His assassination attempt failed. You and Fjolm successfully survived.]
A simple paragraph of words, coupled with the memory image in his mind, eased up Zhang Yun's tension, which had lasted for more than 10 minutes.
F*ck!
He finally got through this!
He didn't expect this!
This b*stard, Nesia, gave up his life as soon as he started!
He chose to mess it up!
Zhang Yun fantasized about countless ways to fight with Nesia. He had considered all means of restricting his ability to teleport, so Nesia wouldn't escape. Zhang Yun even prepared backup plans for the retreat, but none of them were used...
Even so...
Thinking about it, what Nesia said was true.
How could a mere fragile mage dare to face a hero who specialized in magic?
Not to mention.
There were also thousands of hostile long-range professionals around. As long as Nesia's magic shield was out of range, they could shoot him into a sieve with a round of arrows.
Zhang Yun would do it.
He would probably choose to wait for death at the speed of light.
Oh, that was not right! Zhang Yun shouldn't completely mishandle it. At the very least, he should drag a few people down with him and find a way to earn back the capital...
While feeling excited, the words in front of Zhang Yun's eyes began to change. It was akin to an ink painting floating in the air, gradually merging and condensing into a new text.
[Perhaps the Flame Emperor had lost too many of his excellent combatants. He gave up on the plan to invade the Ice Kingdom after the death of Mage Nesia.]
[He didn't activate the sacrificial array, so he couldn't leave the volcanic land.]
[The Revolutionary Army in the north didn't suffer any attacks from the Prongia Empire. The deployed scouts to the volcanic area could even retreat safely with the intelligence as long as they didn't go too deep into the enemy's territory.]
[And so, you and Fjolm focused your attention on the Royal Army at the border.]
[With the addition of Hero Kanan's powerful combat power, your attack efficiency got faster and faster. It didn't take long for you to force the remaining defeated knights of the Royal Army out of the border.]
[That pesky local tyrant was also dragged to the city gate of the border by you and Fjolm. You personally beheaded him in front of all the people of the border.]
[At this moment, the northern territory of the Ice Kingdom was officially liberated. The morale of the Revolutionary Army was high. Striking the iron while it was hot, Fjolm announced that the forces would march south into the capital to rescue the Ice Emperor who had been deceived by the Hand of the King.]
[But the next day, you received a letter from the capital, and the letter said...]
"Urgent report! The capital has fallen! His Majesty, the Ice Emperor, was defeated by Flame Emperor Garukasa in front of the Triumphal Arch. The Ice Emperor died for his country!"
"Fortunately, Her Highness awakened her talent at the last minute and used the power of the Holy Sword to force back the Flame Emperor, escape the capital and head to the north!"
"Warriors of the Northern Border Army, please come to the Princess's aid as soon as possible!"
"The future of the Ice Kingdom...depends on you guys!"
…
…
[You have successfully survived and experienced a major event of the era!]
[This simulation is over!]
