Enforcer's Handbook

After being released from the cage, the night heron ran very fast.

All members of the Barossa Group's elite troops also cooperated with this "secret" escape operation. It was not until nearly a quarter of an hour after the three left Antigon that they discovered what happened in the square belatedly. And sent out pursuit troops with extremely poor efficiency.

Even with the help of the "Transportation Team", it took the three of them a full night to reach the "mine".

The huge body of the "Transportation Team" helped them fight a bloody path on the battlefield, and also allowed Lu Xiang and Song Lan to observe the purgatory-like scenes of the towns along the way up close.

Flesh and flesh tissue of unknown origin swallowed up the houses, and a large number of mutants occupied the entire city. The people who "survived" this disaster also turned into twisted forms that are difficult to describe in words.

The mutants have completely lost their minds and will attack any living thing they encounter along the way.

Shrouded in the smell of blood, the two of them, led by Night Heron, finally arrived at the forbidden area of ​​the Lunar Eclipse Cult. Looking at the hole in front of them that was completely covered with squirming flesh, they couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

No sane person would want to put himself in such a horrible place.

But after arriving at the "mine", Night Heron told them another important news - she could sense that the archbishop was somewhere in the "mine" at the moment.

On the other side, the Barossa Group airship located over the third neutral country is also paying close attention to the actions of the three.

Intelligence agents observed several giant insect mutants that were like large war machines. They were powerful enough to easily crash into walls, and ordinary mutants would only be crushed in front of them.

But just when they thought the swarm had finally revealed their trump card for the upcoming decisive battle, the scene at the "mine" shocked everyone.

The Swarm's giant war weapons were repatriated.

They burrowed into the soil and soon disappeared without a trace on the battlefield, and there seemed to be no insect swarm troops suitable for fighting in a small environment around them.

Just like before, they again adopted the method of two-person action.

"As of now, the war situation is developing in the direction we expected."

The commander of the Third Army reported the intelligence that the Ash Knight Army had found from the front line. To be more precise, Lu Xiang and Song Lan's operations went smoothly beyond their imagination.

They were still hesitating whether to use the firepower of airships to support the insect swarm troops when they were attacked, but from what they observed, it seemed that they did not need reinforcements at all.

And when they came back to their senses, they realized what was really weird about the whole incident.

Even if the two army commanders with the most combat experience were selected from among them, there was no guarantee that they could escape from the "mine" unscathed.

"This is the right tactic."

A mechanically synthesized male voice came from under the metallic black exoskeleton armor of the commander of the First Army. He faced the holographic map of the strategic command center and said, "The swarm is also a creation derived from the Devourer. It is difficult to use it in the battle situation." It's good for you and me, and for the entire Legion, to make sure they're not affected by that consciousness."

The previous night's battle had served as a warning to them.

For those with weak willpower, the influence from unknown consciousness will immediately turn them into irrational mutants.

"Its genes also exist in our bodies... You have done enough, now let me end this war."

"But……"

"The Barossa Group must not be completely wiped out."

The commander of the First Army stopped everyone who wanted to raise objections with his eyes. Just now, he suddenly understood a truth.

If even he is defeated in the next war, it means that their current strength is not enough to compete with the "god", and no matter how much more troops are dispatched, it will only increase the number of people killed.

Although they want to end this war in this final sacrifice, as the commander of the legion, he must think further, and this also includes the possibility of failure, because their enemies this time are not Not those individual Devourers who are scattered around the world and have not yet evolved completely, but the source of everything, the terrifying existence that is regarded as the omniscient and omnipotent "Father God" in the teachings of the Eclipse Sect.

"At that time, you will be needed to reintegrate the strength of the First Army. If necessary, win over all potential allies, even the coalition government is no exception."

Before that, they had always been wary of each other.

Because based on what they or any neutral country know about the coalition government, once they master the genetic modification technology, they will definitely apply these technologies to the army immediately, and no one will be able to stop them from becoming the masters of the world.

But compared to the demise of the entire human group, they can only deliver this "key" to the hands of the coalition government.

…………………………

On the other side, Ye Lu finally asked a sharp question after walking with Lu Xiang and Song Lan for such a long time, "Why do you guys always fight alone?"

When she raised this question, the three of them had already entered the "mine". They stood on a high platform, looking down at the mutant structure below that looked extremely dangerous.

A pool of blood that bursts like lava illuminates the scene below.

This scene brought many frightening memories to Ye Heron's mind. They had been here before and had seen with their own eyes the purgatory-like scene below the "mine".

They only dared to stay in the area above, spending every day and night in fear and anxiety.

But even so, the monsters below were still unwilling to let them go. Ye Lu vaguely remembered that several of his friends were dragged down by the mutated structures that emerged from the "mine", and were eventually submerged in the blood below. In the pool.

In order to survive, they had to learn to fight with the monsters below the "mine".

The familiar scene awakened the fear hidden deep in Ye Lu's heart. Even though she clearly sensed that the Archbishop was below, she still did not dare to jump and let herself fall into those twisted mutant structures.

After some observation, she finally made a strange discovery.

Lu Xiang is the leader of the insect swarm.

The Archbishop once mentioned that "Father God" had foreshadowed the threat of the insect swarm to them, saying that they were a group that was very good at winning with numbers.

However, apart from transportation, Lu Xiang did not dispatch any troops to participate in this war.

"Because this is the strategy adopted by the swarm."

Facing Ye Lu's question, Lu Xiang coughed lightly and said, "As for what the strategy is...Song Lan, please explain to her the specific content of the strategy."
