Gabriel pointed at the battle scene below, specifically at the Thunder Clan and the group known as "Handsome Guys," and asked with a hint of doubt, "Chen Ping, Qiuqiu, is the reason why the Thunder Clan and the Handsome Guys are staying on the island in case of unforeseen circumstances?"
Ball bounced a few times nimbly and gave an affirmative answer: "That's right, Gabriel. The Thunder Clan and the Handsome Guys, as two major combat-oriented races, are indeed much stronger than other races in terms of overall strength."
The Thunder Clan, with their superior speed, can stop any intruders attempting to sneak into the Heart of the Divine Island in an instant; while the handsome young men not only possess the strength of a late-stage God King, but their defensive capabilities are also comparable to the Turtle Spirit Clan. Although slightly outnumbered, their second line of defense is undoubtedly very solid and reliable.
Qiuqiu further explained: "The strategy devised by Ela and the others is to ensure that no intruder can set foot in the core area of the Heart of the God Island, but there will inevitably be some who slip through the net on the battlefield."
At this moment, the role of the Thunder Clan and the handsome young men becomes apparent. As we can see now, the handsome young men are positioned around the breakthrough areas of the clan leaders, such as Deer Tree and Linafil. They bear a crucial task: ensuring the clan leaders can safely complete their breakthroughs, which is why they haven't joined the front-line battle.
Chen Ping nodded repeatedly after listening, agreeing with Qiuqiu's analysis and also feeling gratified by the unity, cooperation, and clear sense of responsibility among the people of the Divine Island. He knew that under such collective protection, both the breakthroughs of the clan leaders and the safety of the Heart of the Divine Island could be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
Gabriel stroked her cheek thoughtfully, muttering to herself, "I see. I didn't realize that before. Back in Heaven, I just charged in blindly. My older sister, Angelica, always took care of commanding the battles. I never imagined there were so many intricacies involved."
Hearing Gabriel's mutterings, Chen Ping couldn't help but laugh: "Hahaha, mindless charge? Hahaha, that's the style you'd come up with."
Gabriel pouted, glared at Chen Ping who was laughing heartily, and then turned her gaze to the intruder.
......
As time went on, it became clear that the number of invaders was decreasing. There was no way around it; although they had a slight advantage in numbers, they were simply no match in terms of strength and teamwork.
In addition, some people secretly betrayed others to make a fortune. At first, this did not happen, but when someone discovered that the people of the island did not pick up the weapons and spatial items left behind by the defeated after the battle, greed drove them to start stealthily taking action.
As time went on, more and more invaders joined this "backstabbing game," either hiding in a secluded corner or launching attacks at the end of the battle, all for the sake of seizing the spoils.
These intruders, skilled in stealth and specializing in backstabbing and looting, mostly chose to avoid direct confrontation, making full use of the ships on the battlefield as cover to carry out surprise attacks. Although their actions were covert, they ultimately could not escape the keen observation of Chen Ping, Gabriel, and Qiuqiu.
On the battlefield, countless damaged ships provided excellent hiding places for these "Voldemors," allowing them to both ambush others and steal spoils of war—a win-win situation.
However, even the most cunning fox eventually reveals its tail. Half an hour later, a stronger intruder accidentally discovered this secret and promptly informed his companions of his findings.
The news spread quickly among the invaders, and more and more people realized that there was a group of "traitors" on the battlefield who only cared about their own interests and disregarded the lives of others.
Anger burned like wildfire among the invaders, who loathed these backstabbing "sixth brothers" even more than they hated the people of the island.
Driven by intense anger, the invaders made an unexpected decision—they began to retreat without warning, abandoning ship after ship, and everyone quickly left the battlefield, moving tens of thousands of kilometers away from the Heart of the Divine Island in a short period of time.
This sudden retreat caught those "sixth operatives" who were engrossed in backstabbing and looting off enemy supplies off guard. Some lucky "sixth operatives" noticed something amiss and followed the main force in time to retreat, but some "sixth operatives" who remained hidden and unaware of the news were still hiding in the shadows, completely oblivious to the fact that the war had temporarily subsided.
They are trapped in place, facing an awkward situation of isolation and helplessness, though they are unaware of it yet.
Seeing the invaders suddenly retreat, the clan leaders, including Ela, exchanged puzzled glances before ordering a complete withdrawal from the battlefield and a return to the shores of the Heart of the Divine Island to strengthen vigilance. Having endured a fierce battle, their people inevitably suffered varying degrees of injury. At this moment, the Flower Fairy Clan and the Spirit Plant Clan swiftly sprang into action, treating and helping the wounded to recover.
Upon returning to the Heart of the Divine Isle, the various teams began taking attendance. Although the strength of the enemies they faced varied, the sheer number of them still posed a risk of losses. Fortunately, after verification, every team was confirmed to be intact.
This is thanks to the fact that the people of the divine island are not only powerful, but also equipped with top-tier gear meticulously forged by the fire elemental race. Currently, they possess tens of thousands of sets of god-king level equipment, providing every warrior with sturdy armor and weapons.
In addition, the people of the divine island possess various special potions. These life-saving potions are remarkably effective, capable of instantly restoring a warrior's vitality to peak condition when they are wounded and on the verge of death. Therefore, with ample preparation and unwavering fighting spirit, the people of the divine island possess extremely high survivability and the capacity for prolonged battles.
Although the sudden battle has temporarily come to an end, the people of the island have not let their guard down. They have regrouped, held their ground, and are ready to face any challenges that may arise.
......
Unlike the harmonious coexistence on the Heart of the Divine Island, the invaders outside were also in chaos. They couldn't feel at ease until the traitor was found, so chaos began to break out. Everyone was a suspect, especially those who didn't have any wounds.
For a time, people were filled with anxiety.
Now, unless the backstabbers, Old Six and Voldemort, are found out, there's no way they can attack the Heart of God Island. Moreover, once things calm down, they'll most likely not attack the Heart of God Island anymore.
Because this island is clearly inhabited and has extremely strong defenses, that's why the idiot continued the attack.
