Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland.

Chapter 576 Strike
The news that came out of Gray's mouth once again surprised the anti-slavery activists.

this operation.

They gathered almost all their forces and divided them into several groups, and their plan was perfected in both real and fake ways.

The number of anti-slavery people was small.

Every formal member is an elite.

The team from the remote area is not weaker than the team from the Flash Land. They also have war-level ronin leading the team and are supported by the local underground organization in the marginal town... How could they have expected that they would be wiped out?

"..." Diu's expression became even more complicated, "Including... Marian?"

Marian was the ronin who led the team.

"Yes, they were ambushed." Mr. Gray nodded. "In addition to the United City general guarding the area, a strange war-level appeared at that time...surrounded them from both sides."

The result needs no repetition; it speaks for itself.

"But the generals of the United Cities were also severely damaged. It is estimated that the Imperial Army will not be able to set foot in the south again in the next ten years. Without their protection, the expansion of the slave owners' assets has also stopped... This may be the only good news."

"He is great." Upon hearing this, Diu just said this.

The man in gray was right, but he couldn't be happy.

The small number of anti-slavery members means that almost every official member has the opportunity to know each other - and veteran figures of the same war level, such as Diu and Marian, are even more familiar with each other.

The friendship is deep.

The reason why Diu can still maintain restraint.

It's just that this kind of thing has happened too many times in the past, and they have long been used to it.

And be prepared.

But other anti-slavery supporters could not remain so calm. When they heard the news, some of them changed their expressions on the spot.

The mechanical boy who was originally held by Jaeger couldn't stand steadily, fell down with a thud, and sat on the ground in a daze.

Jager failed to hold him back.

Because even he himself, his hands were shaking a little.

The war level is the absolute pillar of every large force. Even an organization like the Tech Hunters, which mainly relies on equipment to crush others, can only hold on after cultivating a Sword Master.

Not to mention the struggles between nations.

The anti-slavery forces were not a country, but they had much more to do than what they were doing, and now they had lost a war-level and determined veteran... It was no exaggeration to say that if the failure of this game was not handled carefully afterwards, it would very likely become a turning point for them.

From vigorous to dilapidated.

No wonder that from the moment Mr. Gray appeared, his eyes were more serious than ever, even making his companions feel a chill.

But in the final analysis.

Mr. Gray always planned carefully, otherwise he would not have been able to lead the anti-slavery movement from scratch - but the United Cities actually calculated their actions and launched an ambush...

That in itself is astonishing enough.

"There's nothing strange about that." The Bee Prince seemed to have anticipated their thoughts and slowly turned his gaze to Lu Meng, "Don't we have such a person here as well?"

But before everyone's attention focused on him, he raised a finger and interrupted them, saying, "I'm not suggesting that it was Mr. Lu who guessed and leaked the information... This is all my responsibility."

"Because the incident happened in a hurry, the preparations were not perfect. In order to prevent the enemy from predicting the trajectory, those obvious routes were deliberately avoided. But if the enemy thought of this in advance..." Hui quickly concluded. His speed became faster and faster with each sentence, but his voice became deeper and deeper. "Plus, Edge Town has always been an independent lord in the Northern United City that broke away from Long En's family. I didn't expect that this was a deliberate flaw and a facade. I didn't expect that they could suppress the commotion so quickly..."

By the end of his speech, others could no longer hear what he said, or perhaps he was just trying to speak to himself.

"And, underestimated the Merchant Guild!"

That strange war-level general was completely beyond the existing intelligence. On the surface, the Northern United City only had five war-level generals, half of whom were deployed on the western front to fight the Holy Kingdom, which was a bit overwhelming. The rest had to be stationed in various places, including the target of this trip, the imperial treasury warden of the Tengu Dungeon.

But, this has always been the strength that is shown on the surface.

That is the so-called royal central power.

In the United Cities system, it used to be the least important, and was only recently integrated by the Merchant Guild for their own use.

You can appreciate Long En’s character.

Would he, like other nobles, hide or collude with other forces? Although the United City is good, it is not his after all.

Now, of course, the president has been forced to reveal his trump card, and his status is also important enough.

The cost is also heavy.

Facing such an opponent.

Blood debt must be repaid with blood.

Only blood can be exchanged for blood.

All the anti-slavery activists, including Diu, remained silent. They could hear the self-blame in Mr. Gray's tone, even though it was not entirely his fault.

The factors of failure he mentioned seem inevitable, but in reality, they are only the extremely unlikely accidents that should be eliminated first. If you try to take them all into consideration before taking action, you will only be self-contradictory and unable to move forward.

Mr. Gray did exactly that.

Unfortunately, the opponent they are facing is someone who can turn extremely small possibilities into reality.

In a way, it's just like ash.

On such a fair stage, the importance of strategy is reduced to an infinitely low level - what ultimately determines victory or defeat is overwhelming strength and background.

But we have to summarize.

He has lived from the Bloody Rebellion to the present. Although his potential has been greatly activated after practicing martial arts and his body remains healthy, and you can't tell anything from his appearance, he is, after all, an old man.

Fatigue would creep into his heart every moment.

Then it was suppressed again.

To lead such a large organization, one has to learn lessons from every setback - they have fewer opportunities to try and fail, so they can only learn twice as much.

Otherwise, everyone’s lives will be lost.

It is even more impossible to fulfill the ideal of that bone man.

"I have also asked Kami, who started from 'Disgust', to withdraw her troops. You are the only ones left among the three main forces." He looked at Diu, "As Mr. Lu said, if we can't even get past him, then in the current situation, going to the United City will only mean our death—"

"Now, do you have any objections?"

Diu paused.

Being defeated is certainly embarrassing, but the example is right in front of us.

He didn’t know if Lu Beiyou could fight against more than two war-level enemies...at least he couldn’t.

If we set out like this rashly.

It will only fall into the trap of the United City.

Same fate as Marian.

He clasped his fists in front of his chest, lowered his head and bowed to Lu Meng.
