Chapter 529: Chapter 122: Red Heart Arrow_2
He is the Main General of an army and also comes from a noble family, thus he naturally possesses detailed enemy intel.
The military power of an army comes from many sources. Apart from the soldiers themselves, there are also weaponry, timing, geographical advantages, and other external factors.
This is why military equipment must be placed outside, stored in armories.
If put into Storage Equipment, it would not enhance military power, and if the key storage points are taken down when concentrated, the loss would be even greater.
Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
War has too many unexpected factors; hence, placing military equipment in batches is an excellent strategy.
Of course, some military equipment will also be stored inside Treasure Equipment used for storage.
However, the more Magic Artifacts and Magic Treasures stored inside, and the higher the end of these items, the more Mana needed to maintain the storage correspondingly increases.
For an individual Cultivator, it’s possible to store almost all of one’s possessions inside an excellent Storage Treasure and still have space left.
But for an army, there are too many items, and it’s difficult to meet the massive logistics demand solely through storage treasures. Or in other words, the cost-performance ratio is very low.
When Shuangjing heard that the Old Monster in Stone also sneaked in, his heart sank to the bottom.
Right now, they are stretching themselves thin against Lord Long, on the verge of collapse.
“If the Old Monster in Stone joins forces with Lord Long…” Thinking of this possibility, Shuangjing gasped.
Then the next moment, he saw a towering Virtue Light Illuminating Tower suddenly disappear.
Following that, the successful Stone Ball thief quickly burrowed underground and vanished.
Shuangjing’s eyes bulged at this moment!
He hastily scanned around and realized that out of the original seven Virtue Light Illuminating Towers, now only four remained.
Three Virtue Light Illuminating Towers had been stolen without his notice.
Even though Shuangjing came from a noble family, he felt an immense pain at this moment.
A single Virtue Light Illuminating Tower contained top-grade spiritual stones and was at Magic Treasure Level, with a market price of 3,600,000 Mid Grade Spirit Stones.
Three Virtue Light Illuminating Towers meant a loss of 10,800,000 Mid Grade Spirit Stones.
“This damn Old Monster in Stone!!!” Shuangjing wished he could drag out the Old Monster in Stone and thrash him right now!
Lord Long also wished he could drag out the Old Monster in Stone for a beating!!
“Old Monster in Stone, what are you sneaking around for?”
“Quickly join forces with me and crush this White Jade Camp!!”
Lord Long’s Divine Sense was vast, reaching over to Sun Ning and the others.
Sun Ning and the others ignored him, their eyes gleaming, focusing only on looting the treasures of the White Jade Camp.
They broke into an armory and saw over five hundred warhorses.
White Feather Light Dust!
A troop of white horses, slender and graceful.
Their hair was as white as snow, covering their entire bodies like the most delicate white jade carvings.
What was peculiar was their manes seemed like bird feathers, long and soft. Silver-white plumes extended from their heads down their necks, cascading like waterfalls, giving a sense of ultimate lightness and full of Immortal Energy.
Their tails were also replaced by long white plumes, and when the tails hung down, the feathers fluttered lightly, shining with an icy glow.
The limbs of the White Feather Light Dust Horse were long, and their legs bore subtle grey speckles, resembling fine dust marks.
The military equipment of the White Jade Camp was extremely luxurious!
All of them had mounts, though they couldn’t be counted as cavalry yet because they lacked the training in corresponding Battle Formations.
This time when the attack occurred, the White Jade Camp was behind the Barbarian Demon Camp and received a warning in advance.
So they dismounted early, placed the war-weary horses into the stables, then formed a defense on the spot.
Training their own riding Battle Formation was precisely the plan of Shuangjing and others.
Ning Zhuo clapped one fist into an open palm and sighed, “Good horses, they’re all good horses. It’s a pity they’re harder to steal than weapons.”
Sun Lingtong then said, “Little Zhuo, don’t be sad, I have a way!”
He took out the Mist Smoke, lit it directly, and created a large cloud of smoke in front of him.
Sun Lingtong activated his Stealing Technique, and whenever a White Feather Light Dust Horse appeared within the Mechanical Dragon, it was immediately enveloped in smoke.
The White Feather Light Dust Horses were already restrained and couldn’t move. After quickly breathing in the smoke, they promptly fainted.
“What an impressive smoke, Boss, how did you get this?” Ning Zhuo was quite surprised.
Sun Lingtong said, “It’s not mine; I got it from Yang Chanyu.”
Ning Zhuo then realized.
Yang Chanyu also came from the Bukong Sect, and compared to Sun Lingtong, she was very adept at Poison Technique.
After fumigating the White Feather Light Dust Horses, Ning Zhuo neatly stacked them, filling up one compartment after another.
Objects with life are not like inanimate objects; they don’t easily shrink in size.
Hence, transformation techniques always had a threshold, requiring Cultivators to study and practice diligently to gradually master it.
The Stone Ball rolled a few times, stole the entire herd of horses, and then moved downwards.
“Our horses!” The Golden Core Deputy Generals were in utter despair.
When this horse herd was being collected, they all paid a great price, begging and pleading, and only with the support of their families, were they finally able to procure them with great difficulty.
But now, they were all gone!
“Old Monster in Stone, I curse you!!”
“To think you are such a Nascent Soul, without a shred of shame!!”
“An esteemed Nascent Soul acting like this, with such adept stealing skills, you are the disgrace of Nascent Soul Cultivators.”
But Shuangjing was already calm: “Let him steal, let him rob!”
“If he had joined forces with Lord Long, maybe we would have already collapsed.”
“Right now, indeed the loss of wealth is heart-wrenching and makes it hard to breathe, but at least we have stabilized the enemy’s second Nascent Soul Cultivator.”
“Generals, we must fight valiantly to the end, defeat Lord Long first, then repel the Old Monster!”
