Chapter 1877 - 586: This Is My Escape Route!
Chapter 1877: Chapter 586: This Is My Escape Route!
Of course, his surveillance went unnoticed by others.
This type of surveillance spell was unique to him, a personal talent that others could not replicate.
Since he left the "Gray Gang," he had always kept it hidden; only his colleagues from the gang had some understanding of it.
The Magician gazed at the battlefield within the image and sighed slightly.
The escape route of these guys was too rough; indeed, they were still a bunch of ordinary people who suddenly gained power...
That colleague in the team should be able to understand my hint, right...
"Those followers have temporarily changed direction; they’re headed towards Zone 5 now. Team 4, prepare to support Zone 5!"
The Magician shouted again in the communication network.
His orders contained no deception; there would inevitably be a battlefield cleanup after the battle, and as the commander, he would leave no discrepancies with the evidence.
In the beginning, those believers indeed attempted a raid in the direction of Zone 4, but he didn’t mention that the raid was actually aimed at the edge of Zone 4, extremely close to Zone 5.
And now, those believers were indeed heading towards Zone 5.
Even if they changed direction to avoid a building along the way, they did still turn, didn’t they?
The Magician squinted his eyes slightly and pretended to be anxious as he shouted again:
"No, they have turned back to Zone 4; the previous direction was a trap!"
"What?!"
"We must go back to support immediately!"
The voice of the team captain responsible for several area defenses echoed in the communication channel.
In the previous two encirclements, they had already encountered similar situations where that breakout team of believers provided misleading answers only to change the attack location at the critical moment.
Seizing the opportunity as they aided the neighboring region, they successfully broke through a gap that they had torn open themselves.
Having been fooled once before, this time they definitely wouldn’t make the same mistake!
Watching as the Transcendent team in Zone 4 actively moved toward the direction of the adjacent Zone 3, appearing confident as they prepared to ambush the breakout believers team.
The Magician smiled imperceptibly.
He intentionally did not warn them, just to create this kind of misunderstanding.
And besides, it’s not his fault; he’s just an unremarkable Magician who can only surveil the positions of those believers teams and cannot see the situation on the front line, right?
Since he can’t see the mistakes of the frontline team, wouldn’t know they’ve ambushed the wrong spot, it’s perfectly normal for him not to issue a warning.
All of this is simply the failure of the battle team responsible for encircling and besieging...
"Here they come!"
The Magician watched the believers team approaching the edge of the encirclement and gave a prompt.
The subjugation team hiding inside the building in Zone 4 immediately tensed up, peeking out slightly to observe the interior of the encirclement area, ready to activate their Magic Power at any moment to counter the believers’ raid.
"I’ve heard that the believers there possess a high-powered destructive spell ability..."
A Martial Artist team member held onto their weapon tightly, gazing tensely at his own captain.
"Ha, I’ve heard about it; friends from other fleets have mentioned it. It’s the 4th rank Divine Arts of those believers that can turn potions into spells.
During that encounter, they faced a temporary breakthrough of a 4th rank, and my friend almost didn’t make it back."
The captain shook his head slightly, aiming to relieve the tension with a casual tone, but still couldn’t avoid sounding nervous in the end.
"However, this time should be different. Earlier, the chase team reported that they used a peculiar firearm; it must be some kind of Divine Artifact or Abnormal Object.
There’s a limit to firing.
To suppress us, they must fire first.
With our strength, as long as we can withstand the first shot, we can easily engage them!"
This time, the captain’s tone was extremely confident, reflecting the confidence in his team’s power.
With two 4th rank Transcendents, they believe they can achieve it!
The team calculated the timing in their minds and silently waited in tacit understanding.
Finally, just a few seconds later, the long-awaited "Potion Spell" they anticipated finally detonated.
Boom—
The intense rumbling filled the air, yet the team members displayed faces of shock.
It wasn’t surprise at the spell’s power, nor astonishment at the special effect of the Potion Spell.
Instead, it was because...
That Potion Spell didn’t even hit them!
"Damn, they didn’t break through on this side; we’ve been tricked!"
Listening to the explosion not far away, the captain angrily fired a small energy cannon, shattering a building’s outer wall and dashed out from hiding.
After just a few steps out, upon seeing a large hole erupted in the distance and the demolition of the structure several times over, the captain confirmed that it was indeed within his designated defensive range.
He even managed to catch a glimpse of the silhouette of a slow-running believer disappearing into the cavernous opening of the building.
The encirclement they were executing had been divided into several arcs for ease of command.
Just now, the location they were ambushing and the position of the believers was exactly at the two ends of the arc.
"What’s going on? Why didn’t Zone 4 block them?"
The magician’s accountability came through the earpiece, and the lead captain had no way to refute.
The earlier command clearly mentioned a turn back to Zone 4 without specifying the exact position.
After all, directions can always change before reaching a target, and as long as they rearranged troops back to their original posts, no matter where the assault position was, there should be someone to intercept temporarily, delaying until others arrive.
