The voice had not completely fallen.
Gong Yan, who had been smiling all along, stole a glance towards her side just before the adversary showed an uncooperative attitude.
Dai Lian, already in on the plan from the journey over, immediately understood.
To coerce the enemy into submission with overwhelming momentum, thus taking the military warehouse without bloodshed, one not only needed a grand posture but also a display of forceful military intimidation at a critical moment.
It was not necessary to show too much; just the tip of the iceberg could be even more terrifying.
Thus Dai Lian bent his bow and nocked an arrow, his movements sharp.
With a "whoosh," the arrow cut through the air.
The forceful power instantly pierced through the center of the guard officer's brow. The warriors, tense and only waiting for orders, had not even realized what had happened when the officer's body stiffened and then began to fall backward.
