Chapter 1330: The War God Lord's Request
Time passed quickly; before long, the sky began to lighten slightly.
Li Yue, lying in bed, opened his eyes, looked out the window, and saw that it was nearly morning—a very critical moment.
Ding-ding-ding!
A knock on the door suddenly rang out.
Li Yue sat up on the bed, knowing that something must be about to be told to him.
Opening the door, he saw the figure of Lord Chenxi's subordinate, Todd Nelson.
"Lord Chenxi, how did you sleep last night?" Nelson asked with a smile.
"Very well, thank you for your concern, Lord Chenxi. Did you need something from me?" Li Yue replied.
"Here it is; the items you asked me to prepare are ready. We can begin the breakout according to plan at any time." As he spoke, Todd Nelson handed a document to Li Yue.
"Hmm!"
Li Yue took the document and examined it carefully; this was the information he had ordered collected last night, all of it the content he and Lord Chenxi had discussed, which Lord Chenxi had then transmitted to him.
After reading the document, Li Yue nodded in satisfaction: "Excellent; this document is very timely, and I have also gathered this information."
"Then when shall we begin the operation?" Lord Chenxi, Todd Nelson, inquired.
"Later; when the sun sets, we will act!"
Li Yue looked out the window; the sun had not yet risen, but it had already begun to warm, and such light was entirely unsuitable for a breakout, as it would also lead to their discovery, which would be very unfavorable for them.
Therefore, waiting until the sun sets is the best choice; in that case, even if discovered, there would be some room for maneuver, since a daytime breakout would expose their objective to broad daylight.
So Li Yue decided to wait until nightfall before acting.
"Very well; I will go arrange it immediately!"
"Very well; thank you for your hard work!"
After Todd Nelson left, Li Yue returned to his room and continued to rest.
Despite several consecutive days of battle, although his mental state was still acceptable, he needed a proper rest, especially since he had been busy all night without a moment's respite.
This plan was a rather dangerous mission; if it failed, it would mean certain death, and for this operation, he did not wish for Lord Chenxi to participate.
Therefore, Li Yue had to be fully alert, without the slightest slackening; thus, he had to gather his strength and ensure he was in peak condition, so he lay down properly on the bed.
His mind was pondering how to make use of the night operation; this breakout was not only about escaping alive but also about causing significant trouble for the Demon Clan and preventing their plans from unfolding smoothly.
After thinking for a long while, he still could not devise any feasible method.
At that moment, the room door suddenly opened.
"Lord Chenxi!"
A voice came from the doorway.
Li Yue looked up and saw a guard standing at the door.
"Is there something?" Li Yue asked.
"Yes, my lord; the War God Lord wishes to visit you!" the guard said respectfully.
Upon hearing the words "War God," Li Yue's brows furrowed.
"What is going on? Why does the War God Lord come to see me?" Just as Li Yue fell silent, the guard continued to explain, "But the War God Lord said he has something important to say."
"I understand; then let him come in!" Li Yue said indifferently.
Upon hearing the order, the guard withdrew.
"This War God Lord, I wonder what scheme he is up to now," Li Yue muttered to himself.
A short while later, the War God Lord, Baldacas, entered.
"Lord Chenxi!" Nelson said respectfully.
"Is there something?" Li Yue asked.
"Yes, I have a small request," Baldacas said.
"What request?" Li Yue asked.
"During the night breakout, may I charge out first? Let me draw the Demon God's attention," he said.
"What!" Li Yue was startled.
He had thought it was something else, only to find it was for this.
Such a request left Li Yue utterly speechless; they were now at a life-or-death moment, yet Baldacas was still fixated on charging out first, and it was unclear whether he was truly foolish or merely pretending to be.
"My lord, Lord Chenxi, I know this request is unkind, but the situation is urgent, and I must insist on doing so," Baldacas said earnestly, looking at Li Yue.
