Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 750: Chapter 496: Battle Before Dawn (Part 1)_2

After contemplating for a moment, Ariel continued thoughtfully, “Judging from this point, it is obviously easier to defend and harder to attack on our right hand side!”

“It may seem so on the surface, but we can’t rule out the possibility that the enemy will take an unconventional approach.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly and immediately instructed his three subordinate groups outside through mental communication not to engage in battle, but to observe any surrounding suspicious activities in order to find the opponent’s weaknesses.

At present, Serena, Stella, and Linda were located in the fortress on the left.

On the right-hand side of the fortress were Gideon, Scarlett, and Bianca.

As for those near the mountain fortress, Taylor was with Abigail and Amelia.

“Lord, from where my subordinates and I are at this Forest-side Fortress, although the attack from the Saint Night Army seems fierce, in fact, it is not. They are just using long-range output at the extreme limit of both sides’ range, without any intention of approaching for a siege,” said Linda with a determined voice, which reached Leo Ray’s ears, “It seems that the opponent might just be doing this for show…”

“Lord, the situation at the Open Fortress where I am at is the same.”

On the other side, Gideon’s elegant voice also sounded, “By doing this, the opponent is obviously just trying to attract the attention of the troops inside the fortress, but in fact, the actual casualties and damage are minimal.”

“Is that really the case?”

Hearing this, Leo Ray furrowed his brows.

It could be seen that the opponent was obviously waiting for the right opportunity to play their powerful trump cards.

“Currently, one thing we can be sure of is that one of the opponent’s trump cards is undoubtedly the missing legion.”

“However, up to now, neither my subordinates nor Lord White’s scout troops have found anything.”

With a resigned shake of his head, Leo Ray continued to ponder, “So, trying to find a breakthrough from this point has become very slim, and according to Lord White, the opponent’s hands are not limited to just one trump card…”

At this moment, Leo Ray’s gaze deepened, secretly considering, “At this stage, when the opponent’s trump cards are unknown and we need to preserve our strength to the greatest extent, although I don’t want to admit it, the initiative in the battle has practically fallen into the hands of the opponent.”

“Originally, I wanted to find the weaknesses of the opponent’s trump cards first and then take corresponding countermeasures.”

“However, Red Devil, the opponent’s cunning commander, has been nearly flawless in his execution, so if we continue to wait, I will become even more passive.”

Thinking of this, a decisive look flashed in Leo Ray’s eyes.

He then thought silently, “If that’s the case, then I might as well take the initiative to lure the opponent’s trump cards. Only in this way can we change from being passive to active.”

“After all, there is a limit to the trump cards in the opponent’s hands. Once they play one, they will have one less.”

Deciding on his plan, Leo Ray’s brow relaxed again.

He briefly shared his thoughts with Ariel and then said, “All right, my dear Fifth Princess, I am about to start my next move, you…”

“Of course I’m going to act with you!”

Ariel interrupted Leo Ray impatiently before he could finish, “Sitting idly by is not the way of my Coldflame Royal Family!”

“True, after all, your family’s emblem features a lively, adorable kitten.”

With a slight shrug, Leo Ray smiled and took a step forward.

“You wretched fellow, that’s a majestic Cold Flame Sacred Lion, not some cute kitten…!”

On the other side, Ariel raised her eyebrows indignantly, her small face puffing up like a bun, and hurriedly followed.Nôv(el)B\\jnn

So, after explaining his plan to Lord White,

Leo Ray immediately put on the Invisibility Cloak with Red Night and Ariel Watson, disappearing under the night sky.Soon after, with a swift journey, it didn’t take long.

Leo Ray and the others met up with Gideon Black, Scarlett, and Bianca White, who were located at the small fortress in the open area on the right side of the mountain fortress.

“Lord, their attacks have been neither cold nor hot, I wonder what they’re plotting now,” Scarlett said with some embarrassment as she nibbled at a large chunk of strawberry cake, laughing with Leo Ray.

Because the cake was so huge, the tip of Scarlett’s witch hat was smeared with a lot of cream.

“I don’t know what they’re plotting, but your way of recovering magic is quite unique,” Leo Ray said casually, his expression serious as he began observing the battlefield.

Currently, their position was on higher ground, with a clear view of most of the battlefield.

On the smoke-filled battlefield, cries of battle and horns of attack were non-stop.

As Scarlett and Gideon Black had said before, the Holy Night Legion had encircled the small fortress on three sides, except for the cliff-side.

The concentrated long-range troops and the fortress defenders engaged in mutual bombardment. Although the battle was fierce and tense, they had not advanced any further.

Looking at the back of one side of the Holy Night Army, a faint smile appeared on Leo Ray’s slightly narrowed eyes.

Since the Holy Night Army had concentrated their elite heavy infantry and long-range troops in the front row, the rear was basically composed of light infantry formations, without any defense.

It was the perfect opportunity for their side to attack!

“It’s easy to imagine that the reason the enemy has chosen to attack from two directions simultaneously is to confuse us and tie up our forces within the fortress,” Leo Ray continued to ponder.

“So, as long as we manage to inflict a devastating blow on one of the Holy Night Army’s besieging forces so that their plan is threatened, they will have to use their trump card to counter.”

“In this way, we can disrupt their original plan to the maximum extent, allowing us to regain control of the battlefield.”

Without hesitation, Leo Ray summoned all 18 Ice Knights from the Space Bracelet.

“These high-level alchemy puppets are at Tier 3 Peak level, with impressive attack and defense capabilities that are just right for harming the enemy and breaking their formation.”

“Besides, the open terrain here is conducive to high-speed-moving knights attacking, so I don’t think the Holy Night Army would expect a new force from our side to suddenly appear behind them.”

With a faint smile, Leo Ray immediately ordered the 18 Ice Knights to charge in a wedge formation at the Holy Night Army’s unprotected rear.

The next second, under the cover of night, the group of Ice Knights raised their long lances and went straight towards the enemy’s camp.

Due to the noise and chaos on the battlefield, the sounds made by the Ice Knights were completely covered up.

It wasn’t until the Ice Knights, who had raced down the slope with the momentum of a thunderstorm, were about to approach the Holy Night Army camp that the soldiers at the rear realized the ground was trembling and instinctively looked back.

However, they were greeted by the sharp ice crystal lances, which were even sharper and more solid than most metals.

In an instant, blood splattered everywhere as the high-speed moving lance tips pierced through the bodies of the soldiers in the last row without resistance, hanging them on the lances.

The nearby soldiers were hit by the incoming tall Ice Horses, thrown into the air and screamed as they crashed into the soldiers in front of them.

For a time, the dull sounds of the Ice Horses hitting armor, screams of the soldiers, and the sound of hooves landing on the ground intertwined. A bloody storm erupted in the rear of the Holy Night Army, causing chaos in their formation.
