Chapter 416: Chapter 340: I’m Taking Down Luminous Stone City!_3
But Lis knew that this was a quite formidable and hot-tempered warrior, often leading his troops in the charge herself.
“Good morning to both Dukes, it’s an honor to meet you here, I’ve long admired you both,”
Lis said with a smile, slightly bowing to show respect.
These two border Dukes were actually Yatean’s accomplices, jointly plotting the invasion of the Boditch Kingdom.
But Lis did not particularly hold a grudge against them, as the matters of Bright City were Yatean’s plans, which had little to do with these two.
“I had long heard that our dear Marquis Kane is gifted and accomplished, and seeing you today proves there’s not a bit of falsehood!”
...
Duke Rame said with a smile, clapping his hands.
“Indeed, it makes us feel quite elderly, haha!”
Duke Baird also said, shaking his head with a sentimental expression.
The four exchanged compliments for a few moments, very tactfully avoiding any mention of Lis’s strength and “Judgement Flame,” growing much more intimate in their address.
Soon, the group headed inside at Bevis’s reminder.
Without evasion, Bevis directly led Lis to the core room used for combat command.
Pointing to the Magic Map on the table, Bevis said to Lis with a smile:
“Lis, if I’m not mistaken, you came specifically for the battle at Luminous Stone City?”
Lis looked at the Magic Map on the table, which faintly glowed with Magic Light and clearly displayed the surrounding terrain, distances, and army deployments. He nodded and said:
“Indeed, I traveled across the East Sea from Dillon Kingdom to the Bodichi East Coast and was planning on heading straight back to Bright City. But when I heard there was a deadlock here, I decided to come and see.”
Lis spoke easily and casually, and the others did not mind.
If anyone had concerns before the war started, the subsequent performance proved that the Boditch Kingdom was quite ineffective.
It was just a paper tiger, easily toppled with a single push.
Now, what limited them was rather the slow pace of the Feis Kingdom itself in annexing and occupying land.
It wasn’t until Luminous Stone City that they encountered a real challenge, but this was also the Boditch Kingdom’s last struggle and resistance.
“Oh? Lis, do you have any ideas about the current situation?”
Duke Rame asked, as they had also been troubled about this matter.
Lis pointed to the location of the Boditch Army on the map and said solemnly:
“They have now gathered over two hundred thousand troops here, but except for a very few elite units, most are ordinary soldiers without much training.”
“I’ve observed that their morale is very low, which means they can handle winning engagements, but a setback is likely to cause a morale collapse.”
Hearing Lis’s words, the other three nodded.
“We’re aware of that, but now Boditch has also noticed this problem and has stopped using flanking tactics against us, instead defending directly upfront, attacking us with their large forces as the core,”
Duke Rame pointed to the large plain between Luminous Stone City and their own location, where the previous battles had occurred.
“Boditch has smartened up, not all of them are fools!”
Duke Baird chuckled, his face showing a hint of mockery.
“I know, so a surprise attack from the rear would easily disrupt their formation.”
Lis stated with certainty, but Bevis frowned.
“Of course we’ve thought of that,”
Bevis, feeling that Lis might not have experienced this type of large-scale battle, reminded him kindly:
“They’ve noticed this problem, so they have Transcendent Professionals roaming this entire area.”
“Among them, there are many arrays set up by Mages for alerts.”
“Even if we deploy assassin squads, they couldn’t silently break through.”
“Even Space Transmission won’t work, as it would be detected, too far makes it meaningless as they have time to react.”
Bevis cautioned, knowing about the feats Lis had achieved using Space Transmission in Ice Peak City.
Such tactics depended on catching the opponent off-guard, breaking their will to fight.
Sometimes, catching ten thousand pigs could be harder than defeating ten thousand soldiers.
“Naturally, I know,”
Lis replied with a nod and a smile, clearly aware of these circumstances.
“Then…”
Seeing this, curiosity rose in Bevis and the others.
To them, as a Legendary Disciple, Lis surely wouldn’t aim without a plan, and it seemed he was quite confident.
“I can still muster the manpower, just need you to coordinate with me when the time comes!”
“This time, I’ll take Luminous Stone City!”
Lis said with a confident smile.
After all, he could command that unruly bunch of players!
