Chapter 1692 - 1692 970 Traps and Another Trap_2

Chapter 1692: Chapter 970 Traps and Another Trap_2 Chapter 1692: Chapter 970 Traps and Another Trap_2 “When the time comes, the opposition will still have nowhere to hide. We only need to expose the illusions and wait until the real break-out soldiers arrive to activate the traps,”

“Using illusionary soldiers to clear a path and remove traps at the front, followed by the real soldiers breaking out, must certainly be the opponent’s plan.”

Old Stone nodded at the Fourth Prince and grinned sinisterly, “Moreover, although the Illusion Technique Counter deployed by the Fifth-order Helper I summoned has been countered by the enemy, that helper is already secretly preparing another deadly move.”

“Your Highness, even though the enemy has seen through our objectives, we have merely wasted some hastily placed traps without any real loss. This too was within our expectations.”

Kent’s face also darkened as he agreed, “Ultimately, these defeated soldiers are still easy targets. I have countless methods to eliminate them.”

“You both are correct, this prince has already set a trap-laden enclosure around these trapped soldiers. Relying solely on those illusionary soldiers to break out is nothing but a pipedream for that despicable scum from another world.”

The Fourth Prince scoffed disdainfully and instantly vanished with the two wealthy homeowners, leaving behind a chilling comment still echoing in the tense air.

“This prince is keen to see, once the smoke and mirrors are removed, what tricks that despicable otherworlder can muster. He played his tricks before me once, do not expect them to work a second time!”

…

Just as the Fourth Prince and his group merged back into the darkness.

The explosion sounds that had been ringing through the streets around them gradually came to a halt, returning everything to silence.

“Thanks to Mr. Lane’s arrangements, otherwise, we who were prepared to break out forcefully would have already been torn apart in a blaze.”

Under the moonlight, a middle-aged Commander of the Shanglu legion, his armor streaked, wiped the sweat from his soot-black forehead and swallowed unconsciously.

His name was Andy, one of the main generals of the besieged Shanglu legion, and also Laura’s brother.

Initially, Andy didn’t think much of this sudden Otherworlder who took command of their well-equipped and well-trained military family’s army.

After all, he was just an unknown otherworlder, what right did he have to command them?

However, after learning about the miraculous results in the Central City Area and that Mr. Lane and Princess Ariel were leading the troops to their aid, Andy unwittingly changed his mind.

And surviving yet another brush with death deepened his respect for the yet unseen Mr. Lane.

Having Mr. Lane as their commander was undoubtedly their greatest honor!

“Legion Commander, new instructions from Mr. Lane have arrived!”

At a distance, a crisp and efficient Staff Officer who had just completed magic communication hurriedly bowed and reported, “We only need to continue following directly behind the illusion troops, creating confusion!”

“Very good, then let us continue moving forward.”

Without any hesitation, Andy waved his hand decisively, “Soldiers, this Main Forces Corps has been specially chosen by Mr. Lane as the vanguard, we must not fail his expectations!”

Hearing Andy’s command, the tired but reinvigorated Shanglu soldiers around him grasped their weapons and raised their banners, stepping forward once again.

Before and behind them were illusionary legions convincing enough to create total confusion, so even in direct confrontation, the enemy could not immediately discern their ruse.

In short, with Mr. Lane’s arrangements, they would turn the tide of danger and safely pass through this perilous trap-laden area!

However, what Andy did not know was that they had just escaped one debacle only to enter another meticulously laid lethal trap.

As the legion Andy commanded advanced, their agile figures swiftly caught the gaze of the Fourth Prince and his party.

“Your Highness, I can vaguely sense that despite the vast number of enemies being illusions, there is certainly a formidable force hidden among them.”

Old Stone’s eyes narrowed as he intently watched our legions swiftly moving through the street blocks, smiling sinisterly at the Fourth Prince, “This time, the magic traps are flawlessly arranged with the Detection Barrier I mentioned earlier. That despicable otherworlder’s little tricks won’t deceive my eyes again!”

“It all rests on Mr. Stone now.”

The Fourth Prince nodded slightly, watching closely the developments below.

The Fourth Prince was aware that the highest-tier Illusion Scroll he owned was only Tier 4, and it was the same for the two wealthy homeowners.

If the influence of the magic traps’ explosions could provide some clues, without them they couldn’t directly see through the opponent’s illusionary soldiers.

This meant that, with the Illusion Interference Barrier already ineffective, if they wanted to annihilate their opponents with minimal cost, it all depended on the Detection Barrier laid out by Mr. Stone.

In theory, although illusionary soldiers could be convincingly deceptive and even touched, they were still lifeless illusions, so Mr. Stone’s aura detection barrier was indeed sufficient to leave the opponents nowhere to hide.

Moreover, the portion of the magic traps laid out by Mr. Stone had been heavily reinforced with a Tier 5 Level Concealment Barrier, making it so even a Tier 5 Powerhouse could not detect any signs.
