Chapter 1307 Flaw
Three days later, after being circulated many times, the letter finally arrived at the Congshan command headquarters. After being opened and inspected by Hill Fox, it was classified as "the most important information" and handed over to Edith immediately.
After browsing the information, Beidi Pearl frowned.
"How many people are there on Grand Duke Island now?" she asked loudly.
The staff officers immediately looked at each other, and the first person to answer her was Dawn Dawn, "Sir, there are currently more than 300 people in the First Army stationed on the island, about 2,500 in the engineering team, and almost the same number of islanders. If If you want to know more specific personnel composition, I will go and retrieve the information—"
"No need," Edith interrupted, "go get Iron Ax and other officers over. Our plan must be adjusted immediately! Quick!"
"Adjustment means..."
"Whether it's soldiers or engineering teams, whether it's Graycastle, Dawn, or the Wolfhearts, they all have to evacuate Grand Duke Island as soon as possible!" She said with a solemn expression, "It's already an isolated island in despair."
Everyone was in an uproar, but they were surprised. The professionalism they had trained for a long time still allowed them to execute the order immediately.
Just as the office was buzzing with excitement, Edith's eyes fell on a piece of paper in her hand.
That came with the letter.
After a few breaths, she clenched her fists and sighed.
The senior officers of the First Army quickly gathered together and took turns reading the intelligence sent from Yongdong Xueying Castle.
"Hekzord, the Lord of the Sky..." Brian's expression was not much better, "If the content of the letter is correct, this damn ability is too amazing. It is several kilometers long and can be used many times. , I wonder why in just a few days, the entire Eternal Winter collapsed completely, and there wasn’t even a city that resisted to the end.”
Lightning and Maisie once encountered a high-level devil in the Great Rift Valley. Its ability to come and go without leaving a trace has already been regarded as an object that needs to be monitored. Now they know that the opponent is probably Erslu. The Lord of the Sky mentioned by Ke, and this is far from the limit of its power - not only itself, but even troops can move through the door on a large scale. Such a powerful ability can be called a strategic level.
The attendees couldn't help but have a deeper understanding of the term "Devil King".
Withdrawing from Grand Duke Island has become something that no one questions.
After all, it is easier to get to the island than to leave the island. If the natural dangers of the strait cannot stop the enemy's actions, it will become a cage to imprison oneself.
Not only that, they must race against time!
According to the clues provided in the letter about the movements of the conscripted people and the summary of the staff, the devil may have gathered a considerable number of troops on the front line, and this massive attack may start at any time.
Tie Ax decisively issued the order, "Stop all construction of fortifications on Dagong Island, and immediately evacuate the people on the island! Not only the rented ships, I want to see everything that can float on the sea participate in this evacuation." !”
"As ordered," the subordinates said in unison.
After everyone took the order and left, Agatha asked with worry, "Why didn't such a powerful devil show up in the second battle of divine will?"
"I think there are no more than three reasons," Edith's voice remained calm. "First, Hykezord had not been promoted to a king at that time and did not have the capabilities he has today; second, they believed that humans were not worth mentioning. , the Tianhai Realm is the top priority; as for the third one..." She paused deliberately, "Maybe the devil's higher-ups feel that it is not suitable for fighting humans."
Iron Ax seemed to have read her thoughts, "Do you think it's the third type?"
Pearl of the North shrugged, "Although the theory exists, the essence of the first answer is to avoid the problem. The second answer is difficult to hold - although the devils have been fighting against the world of heaven and sea, but with their attitude towards the relics of gods, if If they can defeat the Federation easily, they will definitely not let go of this relic. In a war that determines the fate of a group, underestimating the enemy is definitely the stupidest thing to do. In other words, I guess they have tried their best."
The ice witch's slightly gloomy eyes finally recovered, "But... at that time, the Federation did not master the method of making firearms. If even the city walls were ineffective, the Federation would probably collapse faster and not even have time to transfer the gods. Relics are not impossible.”
"So this point is worth pondering." Edith tapped the table lightly and did not directly answer the other party's doubts. "I have always been concerned about several descriptions in this letter - according to the author and the Sky Vault, It can be seen from several contacts with the Lord that Hykezord not only never uses his ability to enter the lord's castle directly, but also rarely meets with multiple nobles at the same time. His orders are mostly conveyed through sigils, as if he is on guard against them. This approach is obvious It is not conducive for it to win over people's hearts. You can tell something from the content of the letter. The question is, what threat can those nobles pose to it?"
The ice witch was stunned, "Do you mean...the Stone of Divine Punishment?"
"After much thought, this is the only possibility." North Pearl nodded, "Since extraordinary beings can be ashes or scrolls, does the Great Lord have to be a demon slayer?"
"This..." Agatha also reacted. Looking at the biggest difference between high-level devils and crazy demons is the amount of ability. There is indeed no evidence that those who are promoted will definitely have the power to kill demons. And this can also answer all the previous questions - the reason why the Lord of the Sky did not appear on the front line of the Fertile Plain is simply because it is not good at frontal battlefields!
Whether it is breaking into the holy city built on the veins of the divine stone, confronting the extraordinary person wearing the divine stone of retribution, or facing the extraordinary strike of divine will, it is a great threat to non-demon slayers, and the Vault of Heaven is The Lord's ability is extremely important, so that's why he never appeared in front of the two armies!
"But this time it went into battle in person..." Iron Ax muttered.
"Perhaps due to some changes, it had no choice." Edith walked to the window and looked at the northern continent. "For example, the original main attacker may be Ersluk, or it may be other princes, but the situation is so Under duress, Hykezord could only walk from behind the scenes to the stage. If this is the case, it is definitely a lucky thing for us - in any case, facing one devil king is better than facing several kings Be easy."
"Have you already figured out how to deal with Hykezord?"
"Its ability is almost irreplaceable for strategic deployment, but using it for offense is not a good choice." She said slowly, "As long as we don't lose too much on Grand Duke Island, the outcome will still be unknown, so The top priority is to withdraw personnel and weapons, especially artillery, from the island as much as possible."
Iron Ax let out a long breath, "So, this information is really worth a fortune. I wonder who wrote and sent it? If the information is correct, they can be considered to have contributed a lot."
Edith was silent for a long time before passing the crumpled piece of paper to Iron Ax.
There are only a few simple sentences above.
Written by Hill's staff before the letter was forwarded.
"I don't know his name."
"When we found him, he was as cold as ice."
"I found this letter on his chest."
"This is the only thing that still has a hint of warmth."
