Not long after, Principal Kongming returned, having finished washing up, waving his fan.
"The journey has been quite smooth; we haven't even seen any scouts from the void."
"Don't let your guard down. Be vigilant tonight and avoid any accidents."
"Don't worry, the people Lao Yao arranged are all martial arts practitioners with sharp ears."
After Kongming and Fu Jinlong finished speaking, they turned their attention to the north-south corridor.
They will send a signal halfway through the attack, so that, under the combined attack from both sides, they will surely be able to retake the North-South Corridor.
The only difficulty is the offensive along the way.
The Void must be on guard; they must act swiftly.
"Hmm? Liu Lang, what brings you here?"
Just as the three commanders were discussing tactics, Kongming suddenly heard Liu Lang's voice coming from outside.
"Uncle Kong, I have some bad news..."
Bad news?
...
A hundred miles away from the army group, a void army was approaching them. According to Liu Lang's weapon clone, he discovered that this void army had a peak nine-star void lord and five mid- to early-stage nine-star void commanders.
If they continue to be stationed there, they will be within the army group's alert range in two hours.
"Take the initiative? Damn it, they think we're easy targets and are planning to wipe us out before we get there!"
Yao Shangzhen never expected that Xu Kong would be so bold as to actually pull this stunt.
Aren't they afraid that our Dragon Kingdom military region will ambush and wipe out this Void Army?
"What if... what if the Void Army's target isn't just us?"
Fu Jinlong and Kong Ming both looked toward their base along the way.
Although the journey is rugged and long, it is undeniable that this is a military fortress, and there were originally two army groups stationed here, and they were one of them.
If we really want to defeat them and then attack their base, it might actually relieve the pressure on the Void Front.
"It seems we can't rest. We'll have to march through the night. Once the battle starts here, the Void forces in the North and South Corridors will definitely be on guard."
Of course, in order to buy time, Fu Jinlong, the president of Polar Night University, proposed that he take a group of army group members to cover the rear.
After much deliberation, Kongming decided to let Liu Lang stay by Fu Jinlong's side as well.
"Delay as long as possible. Our base was originally guarded by the Seventh Prince of the Dragon Kingdom and Commander Lü. Now, one of them has gone to the mainland and the other is seriously injured. They cannot resist the Void Lord in a short time."
Liu Lang, I know you can enter that divine state and possess ten-star combat power.
However, I also know that to get you into this state, we need the divine power fragments that the military region is currently researching, which were originally your spoils of war.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't able to apply in time, so don't panic if you're struggling. Just stall for enough time, and we'll send troops from the Northern Region to support you."
Kongming didn't know if Liu Lang had left any fragments of divine power, but it was highly likely that he hadn't, because the military region had promised them that they would return the fragments of divine power to them before the war of the gods.
However, the operations Liu Lang had previously carried out were not combat missions.
Therefore, it is unlikely that they possess fragments of divine power.
However, all of this is based on his own analysis. Would Liu Lang not have it?
He kept two more!
Furthermore, he now possesses 57% divine power, just like Bu Xiaosai, who can enter a divine state with a single fragment of divine power. Liu Lang can do the same now.
But it's unnecessary.
Because Liu Lang had a strange feeling that he was about to advance again.
His next advancement will be to the Nine-Star Realm, and his special ability will finally return from the SS-level to the original SSS-level. I'm really looking forward to it...
Therefore, the group, who had just settled in for less than an hour, had to set off again.
Principal Kongming led the troops forward along the north-south corridor, while another group stayed behind with Principal Fu Jinlong to cover the rear.
"Why are we covering our retreat like this? Let's go, let's ambush them!"
Fu Jinlong immediately issued the order to begin advancing towards the Void Army.
The night was dark and windy; it was the perfect day for an ambush...
"Human presence detected!"
"The sound... Oh~ so they want to attack another fortress."
"Should we pursue them? Or act according to the will of the gods?"
“He is not under our jurisdiction; another unit will attack him.”
The unit's sole Void Lord relayed the intelligence to another Void force operating covertly in the Void, tasked with eliminating the humans attempting to conquer the North-South Corridor.
Their goal remains the human base.
"boom--!!!"
A deafening roar tore through the silent night sky as the Void Army was ambushed, with its vanguard suffering heavy losses in an instant!
