Chapter 1219: Chapter 773: Gazing at the Starry Sky City_2 Chapter 1219: Chapter 773: Gazing at the Starry Sky City_2 Yuliss naturally would not let his hard-trained army be the test subjects stepping into a trap. Instead, he whispered in Aarveeâs ear, âWhy not send an ordinary legion in? In this way, everything can be perfectly resolved.â
âI have no objection to that.â
Aarvee shrugged helplessly, âBut if the Lord of Cyan City allows the weaker, ordinary army to leave and waits until our main forces enter the city to make a move, what should we do then?â
âAs they say, soldiers never tire of deception. If I were the general, I might do just that. Killing the main forces is always the top priority.â
Yuliss rubbed the magic wand in his hand, nodded thoughtfully, and then said angrily, âSo we really canât go into the city even though the gates are wide open right in front of us?â
âIt is precisely because we opened the gates ourselves that we need to be cautious.â
As Aarvee was speaking, a deputy general came forward and reported, âMy lords, according to the defeated soldiers from the earlier siege, it seems they heard the soldiers on the city walls shouting something about a red giant dragonâŠâ
âRed Giant Dragon?!â
Hearing this, Yuliss and Aarvee couldnât help but be shocked.
They remembered that not long ago, there were indeed reports of three mysterious red giant dragons circling above several cities without any signs of aggressionâŠ
âBut how could a giant dragon appear here? Is there really a trap?â
As they both thought about this, the uncertainty on the faces of the two new aristocratic kingdom generals increased.
At this moment, a tall figure slowly walked out of the wide-open gates of Galaxy City.
The person was none other than Leo Ray.
And the strategy of opening the city gates was naturally imitated by Leo Ray from the famous Empty City Strategy.
Leo Ray understood clearly that, although this was a very familiar plot twist to the people of the Summer Realm, with a little thought, they could perhaps see the truth behind it.
But this was a completely different world, and there were no profound classical literature for these opponents to read.
Thus, this seemingly empty city strategy was actually a simple plan to take advantage of the information gap.
âAs long as I can force this new aristocratic army to retreat without a fight, my goal will be achieved. Once I have completely stabilized the entire eastern front of Coldflame and integrated the troops, these guys will no longer be a threat.â
As Leo Ray looked at the black mass of new aristocratic army in front of him, he strolled leisurely and thought to himself.
However, although Leo Rayâs pace was graceful and effortless, his heart was in a panic.
If the other party doesnât buy this tactic and insists on pushing forward, then his territory and previous efforts might really be lost entirely.
âAs the saying goes, âThree cobblers make a scholar,â I hope that with so many cobblers between me and my subordinates, we can receive the blessing of the wise prime minister.â
Although Leo Rayâs heart was pounding, his face remained calm.
Of course, he wasnât just unprepared and appearing alone in front of five armies.
Among the free farmers who appeared earlier, the vast majority of them were illusions created by Brocade Winthrop. Only two were real â Taylor and Jasper Richardson.
Since Brocade Winthrop, an illusion master, was by his side, Leo Ray had to make good use of him.
Therefore, in case there was any change in the situation, as long as Jasper Richardson, who was not far away, used a teleportation spell, Leo Ray would not be threatened.
âMy lone appearance is meant to further deter the other party. After all, logically speaking, I wouldnât open the gates and then appear here alone without any preparations, right?â
As he thought about this, Leo Ray stood in front of the opposing ranks, raised his voice, and said, âTwo kingdom generals, I have already opened the city gates. Why arenât you coming in? If you donât come in soon, I might close the gates again.â
Leo Rayâs incredible move caused both the new aristocratic soldiers of the five legions in front of the city and the lords of the Master Leo Fan Club on the city walls to look at each other in confusion.
For a moment, the battlefield with tens of thousands of people fell silent.
Most of the new aristocratic soldiers of the five legions showed confusion and bewildered expressions on their faces.
This man was obviously the leader in the city, but he had just annihilated the soldiers who had attacked the city wall with the force of thunder, and now he had opened the city gates⊠even walking out alone. What on earth was he trying to do?!
As everyone knew, during a siege, the defending army would either resist to the death or surrender. A situation where the gates were open but not surrendered and they were welcomed into the city was unheard of!
Standing on the city wall, the lords of the Master Leo Fan Club were all looking extremely nervous, their hands soaked with sweat, making the weapons they held very slippery.
As citizens of the Summer Realm, most of them understood what Master Leo planned to do the moment he decisively ordered the city gates to be opened.
However, whether this empty city strategy would work on these otherworld natives was something none of them could be certain of.
As their hearts raced with anxiety, the lords of the Master Leo Fan Club, including Quinn Serena, Myla, and Gabriel Jordan, all cast admiring glances at Leo Rayâs receding figure.
At this moment, Master Leo was facing the soldiers of five native legions all by himself!
The momentum of merely two battalions had already frightened them, let alone Master Leo facing an enemy 25 times bigger than 2000 people all by himself?
This courage and audacity alone were enough to make everyone in the Master Leo Fan Club worship him!
âMay I ask if Your Excellency is the Lord of Cyan City, or perhaps the Princessâs Guest Official?â
In a short while, a middle-aged commander resembling a battalion leader emerged from the new aristocracyâs ranks and cautiously asked.
âIndeed, itâs me.â
Leo Ray nodded slightly, immediately understanding the current situation.
It seemed that both Earl Jenkins and Brocade Winthrop were afraid of being beheaded by his Tier 5 Powerhouse, so they had found a proxy to probe the situation.
This also revealed that the opposition had indeed become somewhat apprehensive.
Considering this, Leo Ray felt slightly relieved.
Next, he should probably add fuel to the fire.
âMay I ask why Your Excellency has opened the city gates?â
The middle-aged commander paused for a moment, as if receiving instructions, then furrowed his brows and said, âOur two armies are in the midst of battle.â
âItâs precisely because weâre in battle that Iâve opened the city gates.â
Leo Ray raised an eyebrow and said indifferently, âWhat? Donât you want to see whatâs inside the city?â
âSince you want to enter the city, Iâve already satisfied your request. Why do you hesitate to step in?â
After a pause, Leo Ray shrugged and said, âCould it be that your commanders are scared?â
âDamn it! This guy is pushing it too far!â
Hearing Leo Rayâs words, Earl Jenkins, hiding within the army, spat and said viciously, âIâll lead the charge into the city now and see what kind of tricks this guy is playing!â
âDonât act rashly, this is their attempt to provoke us!â
Brocade Winthrop grabbed Earl Jenkinsâs arm and contemplated before saying, âHe dares to appear alone in front of such a large army and provokes us with blatant words, undoubtedly proving there must be a trap inside the city!â
ââŠIndeed.â
After calming down, Earl Jenkins shook his head helplessly and said, âIâve never seen such a brazen and reckless person before. If thereâs no trap inside the city, then he must be insane.â
âUnfortunately, an insane person wouldnât say such things.â
Brocade Winthrop sighed lightly, then said helplessly, âAt this point, we can only temporarily withdraw. If we delay too long and the traditional noblesâ reinforcements arrive, our situation might become even worse.â
âTrue, let the traditional noblesâ reinforcements come and taste this trap for us. By that time, we can just reap the benefits.â
Earl Jenkins didnât say anything more, just shrugged and said.
With that, Earl Jenkinsâs fierce eyes showed a hint of murderous intent, saying coldly, âIf I face this cunning Princessâs Guest Official on the battlefield next time, I swear Iâll spill his blood on the spot!â
Finally, under the orders of the two Kingdom Generals, the New Aristocracyâs grand army swiftly reorganized their ranks, retreating in an orderly manner.
Upon witnessing this miraculous scene, the lords of the Master Leo Fan Club, as well as Kara and the Grand Elder of the Rivers Family, all became incredibly excited.
