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

Chapter 2074: Chapter 1161: Empty City (Part 2)

“His Royal Highness was right, that Gannon the Ninth has been using the Black Abyss Brotherhood to commit unspeakable acts, and now he is finally bound by the Black Abyss Brotherhood, unable to act recklessly against us.”

Lawrence nodded heavily, looking at Leo Ray with full respect.

Upon hearing this, the other generals also showed signs of excitement, and were overjoyed.

However, despite Leo Ray’s calm demeanor and constant encouragement, he knew well in his heart that no matter what, the opponent was a colossal entity standing among the Human Clan for three thousand years.

Even without using the Black Abyss Brotherhood’s power for now, it is still extremely difficult to shake them with our current strength.

“Alright, let’s talk about the next strategy. Although the opponent hasn’t used the Puppet Legion, we still cannot rule out the possibility of an ambush in the city, and we cannot be confined here as the arrow is on the string.”

Leo Ray pondered for a moment, then ordered, “Let Saul lead 30 of the Summoning Corps into the city to investigate the situation, while the forces in the other three directions split. One group occupies all city wall vigilances, and the other waits in place to establish a defense line, ready to support the Summoning Corps in the city!”

“At the same time, our Sky Knights are divided into two groups. One under Duke’s leadership to monitor outside the city to prevent additional enemy forces from coming, and the other led by Sean, entering the city to provide aerial support and reconnaissance for Saul’s Summoning Corps!”

“Finally, Shirley collaborates with Saul to detect possible illusions to prevent any tricks from the opponent.”

After saying this, Leo Ray slowly took a deep breath.

Even if Saul and others suffer losses, the Summoning Corps can regain vitality after some time, so sending them to scout is undoubtedly the best choice.

At this point, the gigantic war machine of 1.3 million troops immediately started moving at full speed under Leo Ray’s command.

Among them, Saul and the 30 Summoning Corps began to enter the city through Brilliant City’s south gate.

While the remaining 100 corps had half ascend the city walls to control the entire wall area, while the other half remained on standby, building defenses against potential enemy forces.

Under the dazzling sunlight, the shadows of Pterosaur Knights swept over the ground of the streets.

Next, the mounted sounds of the leading Summoning Corps followed suit, appearing at the end of the block.

This was the Armored Ground Dragons Knight Legion led by Peral. These knights donned anti-magic heavy armor, riding strong armored ground dragons, able to charge at extreme distances and break any barriers, or dismount to form an indestructible defense line, undoubtedly the best choice for scouting.

The heavy footsteps of the Armored Ground Dragon Knights echoed in the deserted block, and through the lookout hole of the fully enclosed heavy armor, Peral surprisingly found.

Not only were there no traces of defensive fortifications and traps here, but there wasn’t the slightest killing aura, or even vital energy—as if an empty city.

“How is this possible? Just now the city walls were crowded with people, how did they suddenly disappear?”

Peral lifted the visor of her heavy helmet, her wheat-colored face full of confusion, thoughtfully saying: “Could it be an illusion again?”

“No, there are no traces of illusions, the opponent literally disappeared physically.”

Shirley appeared beside Peral, frowning and said, “General Peral, let’s continue to look ahead.”

Without another word, Shirley’s slender body blended once again into the air, disappearing instantly.

Accompanied by the footsteps of the lead cavalry, and the subsequent infantry legions, under Saul’s command, began to gradually spread out, penetrating deep into the entire city.

Until Saul and others approached the inner city where the opponent’s court was located, they reached an incredible conclusion.

In this vast city that could easily accommodate millions of people, not only were the opponent’s soldiers unseen, but not a shadow of a resident was found either. The entire city was eerily silent, as if it truly was just an empty city.

In the blink of an eye, the news reached Leo Ray’s ears outside the city.

“Until approaching the court, couldn’t find a single person? How is this possible?!”

Upon hearing this, Lawrence’s old face was full of confusion, blurting out, “During our advance, Brilliant City, which has been under constant martial law, hasn’t shown any massive resident movement. If Hall withdrew with soldiers to defend the court, that might make sense, but where did such a gigantic number of residents go?”

“It’s known that even ten courts can’t hold all the residents of the Royal Capital.”

After the old prince spoke, the other generals were all bewildered, looking at each other in confusion.

“Remember there were also incidents of missing residents in other cities?”

Leo Ray furrowed his brows, thoughtfully nodding and said, “Perhaps there’s some connection in all this.”

“His Royal Highness is right, things are indeed becoming more bizarre.”

Lawrence, in astonishment, asked again, “What should we do now?”

“I’ve asked Saul to investigate the opponent’s court; let’s assess the situation first. Currently, what we have is too little information.”

Leo Ray nodded to Lawrence, and solemnly said, “The opponent is clearly setting up a grand scheme, and the only thing we can do now is to maintain stability while seeking the truth; that might give us a chance to break through.”

On hearing Leo Ray’s words, the generals all nodded thoughtfully, quietly waiting for new information.

Yet, within moments, what Leo Ray awaited wasn’t Saul’s report but the astonished voice of Wing Dragon Knight Captain Sean: “Re-Reporting to my Lord, King of Valor and others, as well as the grand Summoning Corps, have all vanished!”

“What?!”

Leo Ray was taken aback, then showed a face full of surprise: “What on earth happened?”

“Reporting to my Lord, your subordinate is also baffled; our Summoning Corps encircling the court suddenly vanished, and the warlords including King of Valor, who were commanding at the front line, have all lost their traces!”

Sean’s voice was filled with disbelief and panic as he stammered: “In the blink of an eye, everyone was gone!”

“Continue aerial reconnaissance, don’t miss any clues.”

Leo Ray closed his mind talk and immediately tried various means to contact Saul and others.

But, just as Sean said, not only was magic communication and communication scrolls unable to connect, even Shirley and a dozen messengers near the Summoning Corps disappeared.

Leo Ray even attempted contact through Ariel Watson, but still gained nothing.

“Through Ariel Watson’s visit to the Lion King Temple, it is confirmed that Saul and the others are still in a survival state.”

Leo Ray looked at the Phantasmal Spirit Summoning Army still guarding him and clenched his fist.

Although Shirley temporarily transferred the command of this Summoning Corps to him, in the blink of an eye, they inexplicably lost 30 elite legions and 21 Tier 5 Powerhouses, which is an enormous loss.

Just as Leo Ray suppressed his inner anger and confusion and furrowed his brow thinking about the next move, a new change occurred.

“Lord look quickly, the soldiers on guard duty on the city walls have all disappeared as well!”

The astonished voice suddenly reached Leo Ray’s ears.

Following the voice, Leo Ray indeed found.

The soldiers with flags fluttering on the city walls were already gone, as if they had never appeared,

Before Leo Ray could react, more reports came like snowflakes, stating that not only the east side of the city walls, but also the soldiers on the other three sides had mysteriously disappeared, leaving the entire city walls extremely desolate again.

For a moment, the entire Brilliant City felt like a gigantic, bottomless Black Hole, mercilessly devouring everything within, causing a tremor in the hearts of all.
