Chapter 913 - 913 Lighthouse Squad Invasion
913 Lighthouse Squad Invasion
Wei Feng shook his head and said, “He didn’t say anything else. He only said that he had his considerations. Right! Before I left, he reminded us that we could participate in this operation for our own sake. However, we must not participate in the first operation!”
When Lu Dajiang heard this, he said with a puzzled expression, “He wants us not to participate in the first operation? What is the meaning of this?”
Wei Feng asked with a confused expression, “I don’t understand either. Is it because we don’t participate, it’ll be less stressful on his side so that he can withstand Team Lighthouse’s first round of attack? However, the other experts and members of Team Lighthouse are far from what they can defeat even if we don’t participate.”
Ning Shanshan was a little annoyed. “I don’t understand what Liu Yan is thinking. Does he not want to live anymore? How can we help him?”
Liu Qingrou said helplessly, “Captain Luo Feng has just given us a mission. We need to head to the sea region to carry it out. The direction is the opposite of the Hallucinatory Forest. We can’t help Liu Yan.”
The few of them looked at each other speechlessly. In this situation, they could not help Liu Yan even if they wanted to.
Lu Dajiang sighed. “I hope Liu Yan has a better idea. We can only wait for tomorrow’s news. We can’t help much else.”
They were helpless. They did not expect students from the same academy and even friends would become enemies in the Wind Barrier.
Perhaps this was the cruelty of the sixth level’s Wind Barrier.
The next morning.
In the Hallucinatory Forest.
Team Origin was prepared. They followed the original plan and set up an ambush.
Team Origin had already made preparations for the match against Team Lighthouse a day in advance.
Before Team Lighthouse could locate Team Origin, Team Origin had already started preparing.
At this moment, Team Origin had already made sufficient preparations.
Liu Yan and the experts of Team Origin were waiting among the Withered Tree Spirits.
For safety reasons, Team Origin didn’t go forward to investigate. Instead, they handed everything over to the Withered Tree Spirits.
The strength of the Withered Tree Spirits was not comparable to the members of the Team Lighthouse.
However, they were in the Hallucinatory Forest. It was full of wood elemental energy. It was also a place where the Withered Tree Spirits had lived for a long time.
Therefore, the Withered Tree Spirits were familiar with the surroundings and could hide in the wood elemental power.
Even when facing the powerful Team Lighthouse, the Withered Tree Spirits could still scout without alerting the Team Lighthouse.
Not long after, the Withered Tree Spirit in front told the Withered Tree Spirit King about the information it had found.
As for Liu Yan and the Withered Tree Spirit King, their minds were connected. In an instant, he learned about the situation from the Withered Tree Spirit King.
Liu Yan looked at the core members of Team Origin and said, “According to our investigation, the members of Team Lighthouse have already arrived. Fifty kilometers ahead, it’s a squad led by Luo Rui. The number of people attacking is about eighty. Among them, Luo Rui’s strength has reached 18-star combat strength. There are a total of eight experts on the squad. Two of them have reached 15-star combat strength, and six have reached 14-star combat strength. The rest of the ordinary members are all at 10-star or 11-star combat strength.”
The experts of Team Origin were surprised when they learned about the strength of Team Lighthouse.
Xu Han said, “The Team Lighthouse is arrogant. They only sent a squad for the first operation. They didn’t send many people.”
Ye Yifan said, “The situation is similar to what we expected. On the one hand, Team Lighthouse underestimated us and didn’t know our true strength. On the other hand, the terrain of this Hallucinatory Forest is more complicated. It’s not convenient to send too many members. Team Lighthouse only sent a squad over.”
Hans Wilson said bitterly, “Although it’s only a squad, they’re strong. They’re much, much stronger than us.”
The experts of Team Origin looked at each other speechlessly and helplessly.
Team Lighthouse had already underestimated Team Origin and only sent a squad. However, the strength of this squad was still much stronger than Team Origin.
Even if Team Origin had the advantage in numbers in the battle, they were no match for Team Lighthouse.
Fortunately, they were in the Hallucinatory Forest.
Not only was the terrain complicated, but Team Origin also had the protection of the Withered Tree Spirit.
He Yang said, “Team Lighthouse is only a squad, but they are already so powerful. It’s hard to imagine what kind of terrifying scene it will be if they attack with all their forces.”
“Fortunately, it’s just a squad. We can still deal with them. Our chances of winning this time are still relatively high,” Jin Cheng said.
Derek Dole added, “We must make good use of this opportunity. When Team Lighthouse finds out that our strength has increased rapidly and we have the help of the Withered Tree Spirits, they will not give us a chance. This is a rare opportunity.”
Sun Wen said, “In this battle, not only do we have to defend against Team Lighthouse attack, but we also have to attack with all our might. We have to leave as many members of Team Lighthouse as possible and exhaust as much of their strength as possible. Only then will we have a chance to withstand Team Lighthouse’s attack in the subsequent battles!”
Luo Qingcheng said, ” Fortunately, we had prepared. The distance is almost there. Everyone, get ready to move.”
At this moment, Liu Yan looked at the experts of Team Origin and nodded. “Everyone, let’s go. We must return safely!”
“Don’t worry.”
“Understood.”
“Understood, captain!”
…
The experts of Team Origin set off one after another.
Liu Yan also set off from another direction.
Liu Yan and the other experts from Team Origin had expected Team Lighthouse to send only one squad.
Hence, Liu Yan and the other experts of Team Origin came up with a plan to deal with this situation.
Since they had already made sufficient preparations, they could start moving immediately. There was no need to make too many arrangements.
Liu Yan and the experts of Team Origin split up.
With the help of the SSS-grade special equipment, Wings of Wind God, Liu Yan quickly shuttled through the tall trees in the Hallucinatory Forest.
Most of these tall trees were the clones of the Withered Tree Spirit and the Withered Tree Spirit. Only a few of them were real trees.
Liu Yan flew for more than 40 kilometers before stopping.
A few kilometers ahead was a squad of the Team Lighthouse led by Luo Rui.
At this distance, Liu Yan stopped and did not move forward.
Even though Liu Yan was confident in his concealment ability, this operation was vital to them. To be safe, Liu Yan still observed from afar.
He used the S-grade perception skill, Omniscient Insight, and the SS-grade skill, Extraordinary Five Senses.
Several kilometers away, Liu Yan could observe the situation of Luo Rui and the others.
After a round of observation, the strength of Luo Rui’s squad was consistent with the situation that the Withered Tree Spirit had inquired about.
