Chapter 1023: Heart Toward the Light (2)

Master Mu Chang and Captain Wu Lang and the others stepped forward a few paces, standing at the top of the slope.

The other alien-race lords also gathered over, looking down from their high position at the family lords.

Master Mu Chang swept his gaze over everyone, then said: "Alright, let's begin the operation. We set out."

Captain Wu Lang waved his hand: "Everyone follow me, up the mountain!"

The lords exchanged uncertain glances.

Xiao Qiran asked respectfully: "Captain Mu Chang, aren't we waiting for our allies?"

Master Mu Chang tilted his head, mouth stretching into a grin: "No need, everyone's objective is the same. Let's go."

Captain Wu Lang said: "Everyone try your best to kill more, so our squad's contribution can be higher. Understood?"

Captain Wu Lang's words drew little response.

Only those alien-race lords clenched their fists and shouted loudly.

Captain Wu Lang grew a little annoyed: "Didn't you hear what I said? Understand or not?"

"Understood…"

Only then did some of the lords respond.

But Captain Wu Lang was still not satisfied: "Damn it, why the hell are you all so listless? I—"

Just as he was saying this, Master Mu Chang stopped him: "Enough, Captain Wu Lang, we're about to fight. Save the lecture for after the battle."

Captain Wu Lang nodded, then pointed at the lords: "Damn it, when we get back I'll properly teach you all the etiquette of the Holy Race!"

Master Mu Chang gave the order: "Everyone advance, surround them and try to persuade them to surrender, or force them to activate their formation."

Captain Wu Lang nodded: "Yes!"

A formation has both a duration and a cooldown.

A village-level formation lasts 10 minutes; once activated, it can teleport invaders into a temporary space.

Then the defending side can take the initiative in choosing opponents.

If no choice is made within 10 minutes, the attacking side will be released.

Once released, the defending side no longer has the initiative in choosing.

A town-level territory's duration should be longer, roughly 1 hour.

Master Mu Chang issued two orders.

The first was to persuade surrender.

Persuading surrender is something that must be done before almost every battle.

After all, once fighting starts, both sides will suffer losses.

Even if you win, the losses are great, and the final gains will be far smaller.

If you can persuade surrender directly, that's 100% gains—naturally the best outcome.

The second matter was to force the other side to activate their formation.

A formation's function is not only to pick opponents first; it can also achieve strategic effects.

Especially a town-level formation, which can teleport enemies into a special temporary space for 1 hour.

That one hour is equivalent to trapping the attacking side.

The attacking side can do nothing, only waiting for the other side to connect with them.

This way, the defending side can take them out one by one.

Achieving a tremendous strategic advantage.

For example: one night.

Gu Qing, Tang Ruan, Qi Yue, and Su Qin all came to find Zhao Chi.

Although Zhao Chi is strong, he cannot possibly deal with all four of them at once.

Fighting by force, he would surely be attacked from all sides.

Although it is a heaven-like pleasure, he could very likely be made to surrender by them.

That would be far too embarrassing.

If at this time Zhao Chi had a formation, he could trap them in the temporary space.

Zhao Chi could then take them out one by one.

First match with the weakest, Su Qin—a few minutes would be enough to make her collapse.

Although the other women were anxious and wanted to come help, they were all trapped in the temporary space, completely unable to assist, only able to passively wait for their match.

Then match with Qi Yue.

Qi Yue is also very weak, completely unable to withstand a long assault.

Never mind that on the battlefield she can cut through everything, invincible.

But in bed, she really isn't formidable at all, easily trembling and surrendering.

Then comes the most skilled, Gu Qing.

She can be considered the teacher of the other women, with all kinds of techniques, but Zhao Chi still has the confidence to suppress her.
