New fic: Evolution Paradise in Anime. Curly haired baboons mentioned
Hobert noticed that the Ancient Sun God said "Celestial Worthy" was a brand left during the ritual of becoming the "Black Emperor," not within the Uniqueness or Sequence 1 characteristics.
This was extremely vicious. To become a god, one had to accept the fact that "Celestial Worthy" was part of their divinity.
The brass-colored eyes, possessing the consciousness of the Ancient Sun God, continued in a faint voice, "Within the high sequence Beyonder characteristics of each pathway, there is the imprint of the 'Original,' including the characteristics of the Outer Deities.
"'Primordial One' and 'Celestial Worthy' are using this to allow their will to appear in the divinity of all high sequence Beyonders, but they focus on different pathways."
Hobert nodded: "Primordial One" is biased towards "combat types," so it should be easier to influence pathways like "Hunter." "Celestial Worthy" is biased towards "insidious"... cough, cough, biased towards "strong spirituality." Pathways like "Prisoner" and "Mystery Pryer" are more easily influenced.
He pondered briefly and then asked, "Why would 'Celestial Worthy' send some of the Beyonder characteristics of the 'Son of Chaos' and some of the Source of the 'Nation of Disorder' back to the cosmos?"
This time, Klein was also a little surprised. This information was also very unfamiliar to him.
At this time, Hobert had isolated the hearing of Colin and others, because for them, this information already had a certain degree of corruption.
"I don't know the specifics," the brass-colored eyes said. "But according to the clues I have obtained, 'Celestial Worthy' is experimenting to maintain sufficient sanity for himself.
"'Primordial One' and 'Celestial Worthy,' to a certain extent, are 'the Oldest One,' but they also have their own personalities. They both hope to become the main personality of 'the Oldest One.'
"Whoever can be more rational when 'the Oldest One' awakens has a chance to become the main personality of 'the Oldest One.'"
Hobert nodded: It can be seen as "Celestial Worthy" fighting against "the Oldest One"!
Then he said, "I heard from Medici that Solomon was given the surname 'Solomon' because he became an angel of the 'Black Emperor' pathway? Did you disrupt some of 'Celestial Worthy's' plans because of this?"
That ethereal voice said, "Yes.
"'Celestial Worthy' has two backup plans for resurrection, one in the 'Sefirah Castle'…"
As he spoke, all the eyes glanced at Klein, and then continued: "One in the 'Nation of Disorder'. The main Beyonder characteristics of the 'Black Emperor' and 'Justiciar' were sealed by 'Celestial Worthy' around the 'Nation of Disorder'.
"But Solomon, under the influence of the 'Uncertain Mist,' obtained the 'Son of Chaos' sealed by 'Celestial Worthy,' and under the guidance of the 'Son of Chaos,' obtained a copy of the Beyonder characteristic of 'Duke of Entropy' through a complex ritual.
"I used Solomon's advancement to pull the Beyonder characteristics and Uniqueness that 'Celestial Worthy' sealed around the 'Nation of Disorder' into the real world, basically destroying 'Celestial Worthy's' plan."
Hobert slowly nodded: On this basis, "Future Klein" completely destroyed "Celestial Worthy's" arrangement and defeated the "Celestial Worthy" who planned to travel with me. This allowed me to be relatively pure before becoming a god.
But it's hard to say after becoming a god, or rather, any god who wants to fight against divinity, a large part of the divinity is the consciousness of those ancient existences.
Klein, who was on the side, was thinking about another thing: Obviously, Hobert's experience wouldn't be similar to mine, right? He obtained the help of the 'Nation of Disorder' and became the "Creator"?
Hobert then said, "Don't you find it strange? Logically speaking, 'Celestial Worthy' should be able to realize that 'Son of Chaos' would destroy His plan, but why didn't He make the seal tighter?"
"He can't! 'Son of Chaos' is a life directly conceived by 'the Oldest One,' even closer to 'the Oldest One' than the 'Mother Goddess of Depravity,'" the brass-colored eyes said:
"As for the 'Uncertain Mist,' I have made many guesses. It may be a part of 'the Oldest One's' will within 'Celestial Worthy,' or it may be a part of the consciousness of 'Son of Chaos.'
"But I don't have time to verify it."
Hobert nodded: "Thank you for your answer."
Then He asked Klein: "Do you have any questions?"
Klein was slightly stunned before asking: "Since 'Dark Angel' Sasrir has returned to your main body and became the True Creator after the plan failed, then who is sleeping on the throne in front? Why does the True Creator want to see 'Dark Angel'?"
"The other me should want to see the state of 'Dark Angel' and whether the first 'Blasphemy Slate' is still here," the ethereal voice said:
"As for the guy on the throne, it is a product of the fusion of the will left by another me and the will of 'Primordial One'…"
At this time, Hobert and others felt something spiritually and looked at the iron-black throne together. The illusory wings of the "Dark Angel" seemed to move suddenly.
One by one, the brass-colored eyes gradually closed: "Yes, he is about to wake up, but he is not your opponent. Gentlemen, I see hope in you, the hope of defeating divinity. We will meet again…"
One by one, the eyes closed, and the will of the "Dark Angel" completely disappeared.
Before he could think about what the last sentence meant, Hobert lifted the blockade on Colin and others, and they all looked up at the throne above.
Between the gentle undulation of the "Dark Angel's" black wings, a stone that gave people an unusually ancient feeling was revealed. Its surface was mottled and weathered, engraved with a line of text that Hobert and others had never seen before, but could understand at a glance.
This is the "Blasphemy Slate." While Hobert was sighing, he browsed through some of the contents: Sequence 3 "Demoness of Unaging," Sequence 2 "Demoness of Catastrophe," Sequence 1 "Demoness of Apocalypse," Sequence 0 "Primordial Demoness."
Before he had time to look at other pathways, "Dark Angel" Sasrir had already opened his eyes.
Hobert felt Lovia's body rapidly becoming corrupted and betraying her.
At the moment when the City of Silver elder let out a shrill scream, Hobert dragged the Uniqueness of the "Black Emperor" out of the "Nation of Disorder" while "gifting" the corruption and betrayal on her body to the "Dark Angel."
As Hobert expected, his "bestow" was successful.
In other words, the current "Dark Angel" looks very powerful, but it is basically an empty shell propped up by the position of "Dark Angel" and the power provided by the "Chaos Sea." Sequence 1 level attacks can completely hurt Him!
The surrounding "corrupted" aura surged, and at the same time, a dark cloud appeared on the top of the hall, and streaks of pale white lightning struck everyone.
Just as everyone was about to dodge, they found that these lightning bolts perfectly avoided them, and even the "corrupted" aura did not affect them, not even Lovia!
Because Hobert made the attack target of the "Dark Angel" "chaotic." All of His attacks would hit the ground, hit the giant pillars, hit the walls, but would not attack Hobert and the others.
At the same time, the "Sun Scepter" in Hobert's hand shone brightly, and rays of pure white light that had been "magnified" shot towards the "Dark Angel" sitting there.
The "Dark Angel" squinted his eyes as he was illuminated by the dazzling sunlight and raised his arms to block the sunlight. At this time, brass-colored eyes appeared on the palms and arms of His hands.
The pure white sunlight was "seen through" and suddenly turned dark yellow, causing very limited damage to the "Dark Angel."
Hobert couldn't help but frown. In theory, the power of the "Sun" pathway restrained the "Dark Angel" more, but the problem was that under the influence of the "Chaos Sea," the current "Dark Angel" was in a state of "omniscience and omnipotence."
This made the "Dark Angel" more "knowledgeable" about the power of the "Sun" pathway, so it was easy to "see through" such attacks.
The brass-colored eyes on the "Dark Angel" looked at Hobert again, which immediately caused Hobert's "Disorder" power to disappear.
But at the same time, Hobert "tampered" with the "Dark Angel's" attack. All of the "Dark Angel's" attacks still perfectly missed Hobert and others.
Klein and others did not try to be brave and stood behind Hobert.
They could feel that the current "Dark Angel" was one level higher than them. Their abilities could attack the "Dark Angel," but the effect would not be very good, and at the same time, they were easily harmed by the "Dark Angel."
At this time, Hobert finally took out the Uniqueness from the "Nation of Disorder" and immediately put it on his head.
After putting on this crown with the black gem, His aura became even more majestic, to the point that even the "Dark Angel" dared not look at Hobert.
The "Sun Scepter" in Hobert's hand suddenly lengthened, becoming similar to a spear.
In the next instant, Hobert had already appeared in front of the "Dark Angel", He "magnified" the power of the "essence" of the "Sun Scepter", causing it to emit a golden light, piercing into the "Dark Angel's" chest, bursting out with dazzling light.
This caused the "Dark Angel" to reveal a painful expression, a golden flame ignited in its chest, and the "Dark Angel's" figure and illusory feathers simultaneously became even more illusory.
At this moment, Hobert felt that the "Dark Angel" was replenishing power from the "Chaos Sea" through the "Blasphemy Slate".
Beneath Hobert's feet appeared "Order Crystals" that resembled ice crystals, and they rapidly covered the "Blasphemy Slate".
However, upon reaching the "Blasphemy Slate", the "Order Crystals" suddenly stopped.
Hobert was stunned, this was the first time he had encountered something that the "Order Crystals" couldn't directly seal.
A viscous black liquid engulfed Hobert, and He immediately felt signs of betrayal from His body.
Hobert immediately "exploited" these viscous liquids, and under His control, the viscous liquids that appeared out of nowhere disappeared into the surrounding space.
This was an operation Hobert completed using Uniqueness. If he were using the Sequence 1 level, he might not have been able to complete the "Exploit" process, after all, the "Dark Angel's" level was also not low at this time.
Immediately afterward, Hobert "altered" the "Dark Angel", along with its chair, to the central position of the hall. Since it was difficult to seal the "Blasphemy Slate", then simply separate the "Dark Angel" from it.
At this time, when Hobert went to sever the "connection" between the "Dark Angel" and the "Blasphemy Slate", the "Dark Angel's" figure became even more illusory, and at the same time, the golden flame in its chest fiercely covered the "Dark Angel", burning and purifying this corrupted existence.
The "Dark Angel" used the abilities of "The Sun" and "Tyrant" one after another, but was unable to extinguish the flames on its body. It originally wanted to continue struggling, but the golden flames had already burned it into a state of illusion, and ultimately returned to nothingness, even the iron-black throne it was sitting on was burned to ashes.
Hobert's "Sun Scepter" possessed the power of essence. If the "Dark Angel" had the Uniqueness of the "Hanged Man" pathway within its body, even if it had a Sequence 1 characteristic, it wouldn't have "died" so quickly.
The shadows covering the walls, stone pillars, and floor tiles rapidly disintegrated, revealing inch by inch the orange-red radiance, which was the original color of the giant king's residence.
Just as Hobert and the others were about to return to the real world, a force pierced through the barrier, causing Klein's chest to bulge out, transforming into a mass of pitch-black flesh.
This flesh then separated from Klein's body, rapidly squirming and growing, transforming into a shadowy giant hand, grabbing towards the first "Blasphemy Slate".
The "Sun Scepter", which had just returned to Hobert's hand, shot out again, pinning the giant hand to the ground.
The Uniqueness still had about ten seconds of usage time left, even if the True Creator descended, He wouldn't be without any resistance.
"Thank you!" Amon, wearing a monocle and a pointed soft hat, appeared silently next to the "Blasphemy Slate". He was thanking Hobert for helping him block the True Creator.
Immediately afterward, Amon raised his hand and adjusted the monocle on his right eye, the lens that seemed to be ground from crystal instantly became dark and deep, as if mixed with countless colors.
A illusory, terrifying, and slightly rippling deep "ocean" then appeared in front of Amon.
This "Blasphemer" released some kind of power that he didn't know when or where he had stolen it from.
The "Blasphemy Slate" suddenly vibrated, emitting a "buzzing" sound, as if it had come to life.
Hobert, who was looking for an opportunity on the side, immediately realized that Amon was currently the master of this "Blasphemy Slate". Even if he snatched the "Blasphemy Slate", Amon only needed to beckon, and the "Blasphemy Slate" would return to his side.
Hobert didn't have corresponding preparations for this, or rather, He didn't have a pathway to make corresponding preparations. After all, who in their right mind would approach the "Chaos Sea" for no reason?
Therefore, He didn't rashly snatch it, but instead held the "Sun Scepter" in one hand and asked: "Why did you steal Erebus's slender-necked glass bottle on the day I advanced to Angel?"
Amon said with a smile: "Of course, it was to help you deal with the 'Uncertain Mist'."
"Heh heh." Hobert smiled: "Liar."
Immediately, He pulled out the "Sun Scepter", and the increasingly solid shadowy giant hand immediately grabbed towards Amon.
Klein, while rejoicing that he had finally severed all connections with the True Creator, quietly retreated while taking advantage of this opportunity, and widened his eyes, trying to peer at the surface of that grayish-white slate.
"Sequence 1: Attendant of Mysteries..."
As soon as the corresponding words entered his eyes, Amon reached out and grabbed the "Blasphemy Slate", then suddenly turned around and instantly left through the door.
The shadowy giant hand had already swelled into a black shadow at this time, and it chased after Amon and rushed out of the door.
In the next second, all the shadows disappeared, and the orange-red radiance illuminated the palace where the giant king once lived.
Colin and the others came back to their senses. At this time, they felt that the entire castle was once again bathed in the power of dusk. For a moment, they couldn't believe that this exploration mission was coming to an end.
At this time, their gazes all turned to Hobert and Klein, and their gratitude was overflowing.
These three demigods were of course clear that if it weren't for Hobert, they would have paid a huge price to defeat the "Dark Angel".
Colin was the first to recover: "From today onwards, everyone in City of Silver can freely convert to Mr. Fool."
Klein also said with a solemn expression: "The respected Mr. Fool will send people to guide you to the outside world and help you integrate into the outside world. The 'Creator's' Favored will help you prepare residences and churches."
Derrick no longer concealed: "Praise the Fool! Praise the Creator!"
Then, everyone simultaneously looked at the two huge stone doors behind the high platform.
Hobert put away the Uniqueness and said to Colin and the others: "I think you should be the ones to push open that door."
The three City of Silver demigods no longer concealed the excitement in their hearts and quickly came to the gray-blue door depicting the dusk scene.
Derrick and Lovia, along with the "Silver Knights" they pastured, used their strength to push the door. At this moment, Derrick seemed to see his father and mother, and see his dead comrades such as Joshua and Antina.
Two lines of tears also flowed from the corners of Lovia's eyes. She seemed to see her mentor and husband who had died in front of her, as well as the son she had personally killed.
They stood beside the two people and simultaneously placed their hands on the door, pushing the gray-blue door together with them.
Drops of tears slid from the faces of the two people, and the heavy creaking sound rang in their ears.
A gap then appeared, allowing the golden sunlight to enter.
The part of the giant king's court that existed in the real world was displayed in front of them. Under the twilight, the huge castle was full of a decaying aura, but in the eyes of Derrick and the others, this was still a peerless beauty!
In the distance was the boundless sea, pushing up layers of golden waves under the glow of the dusk.
This was the real sea, not the kind of obscure and difficult to understand sea that they had seen before, and could only see from a distance!
Derrick and Lovia's tears suddenly disappeared, replaced by a huge shock and expectations for a new life.
Derrick, who had heard about the sea from the Tarot Club before, suddenly felt his scalp tingle. At this moment, he realized that no matter how gorgeous the words in books were, they could not describe the magnificence of the sea.
Even Colin, who had always been stern, slightly moved the corners of his mouth, revealing a pure smile and a faint yearning.
Klein on the side took out the "Miracle Invoker" potion that he had prepared long ago and drank it all in one gulp.
He completed the advancement very easily. Not only was the advancement ceremony of allowing City of Silver to see the light again very in line with the advancement requirements, but also because he had already digested a part of the "Miracle Invoker" potion in advance.
After Colin and the others quietly looked towards the outside for a full minute, Hobert stepped forward and said: "Everyone, there is something you need to pay attention to."
The three people then came back to their senses and looked at Hobert together.
Hobert said: "The remarks you just heard about the Ancient Sun God being betrayed by the King of Angels, do not spread them casually after you get to the outside world."
Colin was taken aback for a moment. Seeing Derrick, who knew the inside story, using his eyes to tell him that he could agree, he said, "We won't publicize it."
Hobert didn't explain why he had such instructions, but instead said to Lovia, "Whether it is the great 'Creator' or the respected Mr. Fool, they all regard the Fallen Creator as an enemy."
Lovia's expression changed. She first adopted a defensive posture, but then realized that no matter how she defended, the other party could easily kill her.
Derrick quickly explained, "Your Majesty... Mr. Hobert, Elder Lovia, she..."
At the moment he pushed the door open, he suddenly understood the elder's difficulties. Everything she did was for City of Silver.
Hobert raised his hand and interrupted Derrick's words, "Listen to me first."
Derrick opened his mouth, but ultimately chose to listen to what His Majesty the Emperor had to say.
"There are two paths in front of you." Hobert said to Lovia, "The first is to agree to let me help you sever all ties with the Fallen Creator. From now on, if you don't actively pray to Him, He will no longer be able to influence you."
"But if we find that you have started to believe in the Fallen Creator again, I will kill you without hesitation."
"The second path is to reject the previous condition I offered you. I will turn you into Beyonder characteristics."
Lovia glanced at the distant sea and smiled, "This is not difficult to choose."
Then she said seriously, "I choose to change my faith."
Hobert looked at Klein.
Klein, who had just been promoted, said, "I will make a special report to Mr. Fool about this matter."
Hobert nodded and said to Colin, "In addition, I hope that your 'Council of Six' will be changed to 'Council of Seven', because we are more familiar with Derrick and he can complete the communication between the two parties."
Colin nodded, "Of course, no problem."
Only then did Hobert take out the uniqueness of the "Black Emperor" again and cut off Lovia's "connection" with the True Creator.
After completing the corresponding operation, Hobert did not immediately put the Uniqueness back, but said to Colin, "Let's talk in another room."
Before Colin could answer, Hobert had already taken him a few meters away and very cautiously used the uniqueness to "tamper" with the surrounding environment. Not only that, but he also covered it with a layer of "Order Crystal" to form a barrier.
Hobert said solemnly to Colin, "The origin of the two Grade 0 Sealed Artifacts in City of Silver, that is, the God-level Sealed Artifacts, must be kept at the highest level of Concealment and must not be revealed to anyone."
"I suggest asking Mr. Fool for help to keep that secret, otherwise you will be in big trouble."
Most of the people in City of Silver are Beyonders of the "Warrior" pathway. Hobert was afraid that the God of Combat might exert some influence on them.
Of course, such a thing would hardly happen. After all, the God of Combat is quite busy at this time, but if He really notices this group of Beyonders, it will cause huge variables in the future battle of the gods.
Seeing that Hobert said it so solemnly, Colin immediately said, "I understand. I will pray to Mr. Fool later."
Hobert "hmm"ed, lifted the two layers of blockade, and put the uniqueness back into the "Nation of Disorder" again.
He smiled and said to everyone, "Well then, everyone, this exploration has been successfully completed, so I will leave first."
The next second, Hobert disappeared in front of everyone.
Klein asked Colin, "Do you need me to take your vanguard team to the outside world?"
"Thank you." Colin added, "But let's take this path ourselves. You only need to help us prepare a ship."
Because they can't build ships.
"Okay." After Klein agreed, he tipped his hat to everyone and disappeared in front of everyone.
...
September is the last sultry period in Backlund.
This morning, Leonard, who had just dealt with a Beyonder case, came out of the cool church. Even though he was already a Sequence 5, he could still feel the heat wave outside: "Damn weather."
He waved to a rental carriage. Just as he was about to get into the car, he heard a sweaty newsboy shouting, "Extra! Extra! The Duchy of South Balam has officially declared war on the Feysac Empire and the Intis Republic! The first batch of reinforcements will arrive in Backlund tomorrow!"
"Give me a newspaper." Leonard took a penny from his wallet and handed it to the newsboy.
After getting the newspaper, Leonard got into the carriage and read the newspaper while returning to his rented residence.
Leonard was not surprised by the news that the Duchy of South Balam had joined the war, because at the Tarot Club two days ago, "Emperor" had already revealed that the final negotiations between the Duchy of South Balam and the Loen Kingdom had been completed and would join the war in the next few days.
And "Emperor" also said: This time, the Duchy of South Balam has gained many rights and interests in the Northern Continent, and also obtained many territories in the Southern Continent.
These territories include a portion ceded by the Loen Kingdom, and also the Feysac Empire and the Intis Republic will have to pay as part of the war reparations after the war.
Thinking of this, Leonard once again sighed at the exploitation of Loen by the Duchy of South Balam. Yes, in his opinion, it could be completely described as "exploitation!"
Not to mention the previous negotiations, this time the Duchy of South Balam has obtained many franchise rights such as tobacco, alcohol, and electricity.
Similarly, these franchise rights are not only held in Loen, but if they win, they will enjoy these privileges in Feysac and Intis as a way of war reparations.
This gave Leonard the illusion that the Northern Continent was colonizing the Southern Continent, and the Duchy of South Balam was colonizing the Northern Continent!
At the Tarot Club, Leonard asked "Emperor": Why are you so sure that Loen can still win?
Judging from the current situation, Loen has no hope of winning the war. It is already a miracle that the Balchis Mountains front line can be defended until now.
"Emperor" smiled and replied: "I believe in the Evernight Goddess."
Thinking of this strange answer, Leonard shook his head again. He preferred to believe that this was a gamble by the Duchy of South Balam.
If they win the gamble, a large amount of wealth will flow into the Duchy of South Balam in the future.
If they lose the gamble, it will only be a loss of some soldiers and Beyonders. Anyway, the relationship between the Duchy of South Balam and Intis and Feysac has always been tense.
Leonard then realized that he was distracted. He turned his attention to the newspaper again. The second half of the report was full of praise for the Duchy of South Balam's participation in the war. From the king to the officials to the ordinary citizens of Backlund, it seemed that they had been looking forward to this moment for a long time.
Leonard sighed: Loen needs assistance too much now, even if it's just a show of support.
...
Three days later, in the western Balchis Mountains of Backlund, inside the vanguard camp of the Duchy of South Balam.
The frequent gunshots and artillery fire in the distance reminded the people in the camp of the urgency of the war.
Currently attacking the western defense line of Backlund is the main force of the Intis Republic, which is said to total more than 500,000 people, but they cannot be fully deployed due to the terrain.
According to reliable information provided by MI9, there are more than 300,000 people stationed in the rear not far away, waiting to break through the Balchis Mountains and besiege Backlund.
Attacking the northern part of Backlund is the main force of the Feysac Empire, which also has hundreds of thousands of troops. Similarly, so many people cannot be fully deployed due to the terrain.
Fortunately, there is the barrier of the Balchis Mountains, otherwise the Loen army would have been unable to resist the offensive of these two great powers.
The western front is now very critical. The Intis Republic joined the war later, and its army still has a lot of stamina.
The Feysac army, which has already experienced two large-scale battles, seems to be somewhat Decline, so the northern front is not very tight at the moment.
A Medici with fiery red hair was lying on the grass under a tree, intently reading a booklet published internally by the South Balam army, not at all affected by the gunshots and artillery fire not far away.
Just as He was reading the last page, a flame flew from the distant sky and landed steadily not far from Medici.
The flame separated, and Raymond, with a ring-shaped jade pendant hanging from his waist, walked out of it: "Sir, the enemy is about to repair the railway."
Two days ago, the vanguard officially joined the war. They were not subject to the control of the Loen military and only needed to roughly report their battle results.
This time, the Duchy of South Balam sent 100,000 troops, but it would take some time to complete the assembly in Backlund.
So yesterday, Medici led the vanguard, which was mainly composed of Beyonders, to sneak attack a railway used by the enemy to transport supplies. After a day and a night of repairs, the railway was about to reopen.
Medici "hmm"ed, shook the booklet in his hand and asked, "Have you read this 'Interpretation of Guerrilla Warfare'?"
Raymond, who looked very young and handsome, replied, "I've read it several times."
"Hobert is quite good with words!" Medici sat up and said, "Look how well these sentences are written: 'When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy camps, we harass; when the enemy is tired, we attack; when the enemy retreats, we pursue!' This is an excellent summarization of war tactics! Even a novice could understand this!"*
He sighed, "It's not like I haven't fought guerrilla warfare before, but I've never taken this tactic seriously. That's wrong!"
It was after seeing this passage that Medici suddenly realized how to fight this war where the enemy is strong and we are weak.
Then he was a little puzzled: "He can write something like this, so why is he so useless when it comes to actually fighting a war?"
Raymond just smiled. Medici could say that, but Raymond couldn't say similar things.
Medici put away the booklet: "Forget it, forget it, we should get to work. Go gather everyone."
"There's one more thing," Raymond said. "Everyone is talking about whether we've been abandoned by the Duchy of South Balam."
Medici stood up: "What do you mean?"
"After learning how strong the enemy is, everyone believes that Loen will hardly achieve victory…"
Before Raymond could finish speaking, Medici sneered: "They easily think about these useless things when they haven't experienced major setbacks. In the previous few battles, we had obvious advantages. Suddenly, we are no longer dominant in strength, and before the battle even starts, they are scared out of their wits."
Raymond smiled: "It's not that serious."
Medici said coldly: "Tell them, anyone who dares to desert will only meet death!
"Anyone who dares to talk nonsense again is questioning Grand Duke Hobert's decision. I will send him to Hobert and tell Hobert how this person is questioning him."
Raymond immediately said, "Yes."
Finally, Medici said in a deep voice: "Hobert is indeed not good at fighting, but his strategic thinking is ten times better than yours! Don't you think too much either."
Raymond was slightly stunned before saying, "I understand."
A few minutes later, everyone gathered and, through the "Traveler's Gate" that had already been established, arrived in a forest in the Tucker Plain.
Not far from this "Traveler's Gate" was the railway that the enemy had just repaired. Over a day and night, the eight military trains parked on the west side slowly started. At this moment, Medici led his men to launch another surprise attack.
The Intis Republic was afraid of being attacked by the enemy again, so they transferred a demigod to avoid accidents. This is also why Medici would come in person. The enemy would never have dreamed that the Duchy of South Balam would send two angels to sneak attack a logistics railway!
The battle ended in just over half a minute. The train caught fire, and the bombs on board were detonated, destroying the railway again.
Medici led the team to leave quickly. Raymond walked at the end, carrying the "Traveler's Gate" and followed.
After this success, the advance team went back to summarize their combat experience and then divided into eight small teams to continuously sabotage the enemy's railway transportation. For a time, the Intis Republic's frontline supplies were almost cut off.
Not only was Medici amazed by the "guerrilla tactics" proposed by Hobert, but currently no military officers in the entire Northern Continent took guerrilla warfare seriously.
In their impression, guerrilla warfare was a tactic used by resistance organizations composed of civilians in enemy-occupied areas. The combat effectiveness and combat thinking of these people were not much stronger than gangs. It was a tactic that could not be brought to the table.
When the high-level military officials of the Intis Republic heard that the Beyonders of the Duchy of South Balam were actually conducting guerrilla warfare, they once thought that this information was incorrect.
After suffering huge losses in supplies, the Intis military had to accept this fact and had no choice but to transfer Beyonders to protect the railway.
Currently, the railway is too important to them. The three railways on the Tucker Plain, running from west to east, are no exaggeration to say that they are their lifeline.
The Tucker Plain is easy to occupy, but it is too large. Currently, the Intis Republic's supplies must cross most of the Northern Continent from east to west before they can be delivered to the front line.
In ancient battlefields, such a long supply line was fatal.
Now that there are trains, the front line can be fully supplied, but the prerequisite is that there can be no major omissions. Grain can still be plundered around the battlefield, but there are only three days' worth of shells.
If the shells cannot be supplied, the captured positions can easily be retaken by the Loen army.
Therefore, the railway is very important to them and must be protected by Beyonders along the way, but the small teams of the Duchy of South Balam that harass the railway disappeared after two encounters with their Beyonders.
After learning this news, the high-level military officials of the Intis military speculated that the enemy might know that their surprise attacks would not achieve great results, so they withdrew to Backlund. After all, the Tucker Plain has already been occupied by the Intis Republic, and the Beyonders of the Duchy of South Balam cannot achieve great results here.
However, the Beyonders protecting the railway must continue to follow the train for a period of time to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
…
On the night that the Beyonders of the Duchy of South Balam disappeared, a military train of the Intis Republic sped along the southern railway of the Tucker Plain under the moonlight.
Seven or eight Beyonders responsible for following the train were in a luxurious carriage, joking about the mission while paying attention to the situation along the railway.
Among them, the highest level was a Sequence 4. This demigod was somewhat disdainful of such a mission. He really couldn't understand how the enemy's demigod would use such a low-level tactic as attacking the railway?
Could it be that, as everyone guessed, the Beyonders of Loen did not dare to engage in face-to-face confrontation with the Beyonders of Intis, so the Beyonders of their affiliated Duchy of South Balam did not dare to confront the Beyonders of Intis head-on either?
If this demigod knew that the Duchy of South Balam would send angels to sneak attack the railway, he would definitely be shocked.
In fact, some traces of angels participating in the initial sneak attacks were left behind.
However, Intis did not believe this information because, to them, it was impossible. Which angel would be so sick as to do such sneaky things?
Just as the Sequence 4 following the train was thinking wildly, his spirituality suddenly issued a warning: "Prepare for batt…"
Before he could finish speaking, his tongue seemed to be stuck, and he couldn't utter a single letter.
Looking at the people around him, each of them moved slowly like wind-up toys. The demigod saw from the train window that the train was suddenly surrounded by tall walls on all sides.

Elliot closed the "0-72" Sealed Artifact: "The guys on the train are quite spiritually sensitive."

The next morning, Hobert came to the advance team's camp to visit everyone. From far away, he saw six long trains parked there.
A team of South Balam soldiers were registering items. Obviously, these were the spoils of war from last night.
After entering the camp, Hobert was about to enter the main tent when he heard Medici's lecture to the officers in the main tent: "…Use your pig brains, what is the core advantage of guerrilla warfare?
"You idiots, it's that I decide when to attack him, and I attack him whenever I want! When to attack, how to attack, and how many people to use is up to me!
"Second question, what are the elements of guerrilla warfare?
"I'm telling you, even zombies wouldn't eat your brains, afraid of becoming stupid after eating them!
"The elements are written in the book. The first is to concentrate superior forces to attack a part of the enemy!
"The second is to divert the enemy's attention, so that the enemy can't understand our intentions…"
Hobert was stunned for a moment before thinking: This guy has understood the essence of guerrilla warfare.
