BXBX NOVEL Chapter 538: Panic
538 Panic
After bidding his goodbye to Evelyn, Alex didn\'t immediately come back. Instead, he looked at the sky.
Evelyn deserved more than he could give. As long as she was careful, she could reach the apex with the help of a Martial Saint. He thought maintaining the status quo would be the best he could give to her, so at one time, he could protect her from his future problems. On the other hand, her dedication to him made it hard for him to do that.
In the end, just like when he entrusted Alicia and Firia to Maxwell, he placed Evelyn on Manness\'s hand. No one would attack her again like this. He was planning to rescue Evelyn, risking his very plan if the Joyful Union Sect decided to kill or do their \'specialty\' to her though.
"Go. You can fly on your own now." Alex said with a half-happy half-sad smile. He created a teleportation array and disappeared.
...
On the other side,
Anna frowned upon hearing Noel\'s report. In the end, she asked Noel to summon her back as to get all the necessary information from the system. It turned out the powerful person was Maxwell\'s friend, and she asked Noel to standby.
She waited for a while until Alex came back without Evelyn.
"Is she gone?"
"Yeah. She is in a better hand now."
"Indeed. Besides, you would protect her if they... No, I should stop."
Alex didn\'t reply. Although he was a bit strict, he was by no means worried about her. At first, he wanted to have someone from the N squad protect her from the shadow, albeit he thought it was unnecessary after finding Manness\'s strength.
"What are we going to do now?"
"Our objective is still the same. Annihilate the Joyful Union Sect." Alex said with killing intent.
"Because of Evelyn?"
Alex pondered for a moment before replying honestly, "Part of it is for Evelyn. I never thought they would use a certain aphrodisiac... It\'s time to destroy this sect."
Anna smiled, fully knowing what he felt. With an aphrodisiac that powerful, she could picture what they would use it for. In fact, she was also furious at the Joyful Union Sect right now.
"We still have one more day before the big war. For now, I want to disarm all the traps they use."
"I understand. Don\'t worry about this place, we would not be discovered in this place." Anna pondered for a moment before stopping him. "Alex, I feel we should have another meeting about the detailed plan."
He wanted to have it after this, but considering Evelyn was not here, he needed to adjust his plan a bit. Besides, for an old man to be restrained on the lowest floor like Evelyn, this would cause quite a ruckus inside Joyful Union Sect. So, it was better to adjust their plan early.
"Alright. Summon all of them back." Alex nodded, opened the map of the surrounding area and placed it on the ground.
Anna took everyone\'s card out and summoned them here, including the N squad.
"First of all, like we originally planned, we will fight them here." Alex pointed at a big plain in the Southeast of Joyful Union Sect. The plain was more than enough to hold a battle of hundreds of thousands, making it perfect as their battlefield.
There was a forest on their left and a hill on their right, but not really usable for them. If they fought in the forest, it was easy to ambush the enemy and vice versa. On the other hand, the Blackwade Clan would come from the hill direction, so it was better to avoid using the hill.
"Leoz will take care of the grand elder, and Jeanne will kill the sect master."
The first bomb exploded on Jeanne\'s ears as she looked at Alex with a surprise.?She wanted to say something, but Alex continued.
"Listen, these two would be crucial in this war, so failure is not allowed. Are we clear, Jeanne?" Alex narrowed his eyes and looked at Jeanne with a grim expression.
Jeanne was taken aback but soon regained her calm. Her expression turned serious, and she said, "Understood."
"Good." He then turned back to the map, pondered for a moment before pointing at the plain. "We will have them charged at us until they reach the south part of this plain before trapping them there. After all, it would be annoying if the sphere was in your way.
"At the same time, Anya, Greg, Sherry, and Kyle will protect the sphere from our enemies. Sherry and Kyle would be our main power in defending the sphere while Greg became their shield. On the other hand, Anya would use her support skills to strengthen our power."
"Understood."
"This means we only have me, Stina, and five spirits. Stina would be our main cannon to pierce through the enemy ranks and deal with a few 9-Star Martial Emperor elders. At this time, the Blackwade Clan will surely make their appearance and flank them from our right. Considering their number and power, it would be best for us to retreat a bit and make them our shield.
"This battle can\'t go on more than a day, so you are free to use your True Spirit Body. Don\'t forget to check your own status. If you almost leveled up, you may use your biggest move to obliterate our enemies since your energy would be restored." Alex turned to Anya, "Do you want to add something?"
This was a normal occurrence as even after asking his spirits about this type of thing, only Anya would answer him.
"There is one thing I need to clarify. From this battle plan, I can foresee that their enemy line would be tight. In other words, there is no opportunity for Leoz and Jeanne to strike at them. So, I am suggesting we don\'t attack too deep as to prevent ourselves from being surrounded. As soon as the Blackwade Clan appears, we will attack them like a spear and pierce through their defense." Anya crossed her arms, observing the map carefully.
"I see." Alex agreed with her and made a change to his plan. "I am planning to remove all the traps inside the sect to ensure our safety. One of the N squad will guide me to the location of the traps... Wait, maybe I can replace their trap with my own?"
"Do you have any arrays for that? As far as I remember, you don\'t have any attack type array at the moment." Anya shrugged.
"True. Such a shame." Alex sighed. "Any more?"
All of them shook their head, and Alex ended the meeting.
Noel volunteered to be his guide, so he took her offers and went around using his Spatial Gate.
...
The next day, the situation inside the Joyful Union Sect was in turmoil.
They had been played by both Spirit Nest and Blackwade Clan. At first, they had expected for their elder to die, but they would never predict that the Blackwade Clan would launch an attack toward them by bringing more than five thousand disciples. If that was all, they could feel a bit relieved, but according to the report, the previous patriarch of Blackwade Clan, Song Yi, participated in this raid.
The previous trump card they had brought to deal with the Spirit Nest, their grand elder, would certainly need to stop Song Yi.
The biggest factor in this war would be how many people did the Spirit Nest bring.?In that case, the sect master could only utilize his other trump card.
"Grab that little b*tch from the prison. Tell our disciples to get ready for war." The sect master ordered.
When the messenger was about to leave, another one appeared and kneeled in front of him. "We have bad news from prison. The two people on the fifth floor are gone! We haven\'t received any news about what happened."
"!!!" The hall fell into silence, as they were too shocked. There were even two elders watching over the prison, and they still let the two people slip. This certainly angered the sect master. "What?! Call Fourth Elder and Six Elder here!"
Not long after, both elders kneeled in front of the sect master, trembling out of fear. Even though they were guarding the prison, they did not feel or see anything suspicious as usual. And in that one night, they were gone.
"We didn\'t know anything, Sect Master. There was not a single clue about what happened inside. Many arrays reinforced our prison, so we seriously didn\'t know anything. The only clue we had was our bamboo had been destroyed by them," The fourth elder explained.
"You bast-" The sect master was about to blow up, but an old man appeared and stopped him.
"Wait a bit, This is really intriguing." The old man had no hair left in his head while his beard reached his stomach area. Despite his aged face, this old man could beat the sect master black and blue easily, so with a single word from him, he managed to stop the sect master.
"Grand Elder!"
"Our prison is reinforced by a space element array to prevent any thief from coming in. Yet, they could still escape, or someone managed to take them away. Looking at the timing, we can be sure this matter is related to the Blackwade Clan and Spirit Nest. The problem is which influence." He paused for a moment before answering his own question. "We have a lot of information about the Blackwade Clan, but almost nothing about Spirit Nest.
"The probability becomes twenty percent to eighty percent, with Spirit Nest as the suspect. This little influence might possess more trouble for us than the Blackwade Clan..." The grand elder closed his eyes and sighed. "How is the condition of our array?"
"Many elders are checking it right now, but there is nothing to be found. In other words, they also did not escape through the array."
"This is really suspicious. No one has managed to escape from our prison for many centuries, and two people suddenly break that record..."
"We are currently investigating the matter, Grand Elder. There are more than a thousand disciples in prison to check every nook and corner."
"I will leave it to you. Still, if the other influences know about our prison trick, then it will be dangerous to us."
"Yes."
"But this is hilarious. Those two are man and woman, with how potent the aphrodisiac is, they must have sex right now... Anyway, impose an information lockdown for the time being. We can\'t let the other influences know anything about this. If any of the disciples are untrustworthy, kill them."
"Yes."
The others agreed with him. Their prison was protected with a rank 7 Space Element Array that would prevent anyone from teleporting inside. The only way to come inside was from the main door, which was protected by the fourth elder and sixth elder. They could not think of a single plan that would let these two escape unnoticed.
"How about our preparation, like pills and traps?" The grand elder asked the sect master.
With the question coming from him, the sect master became docile and answered respectfully. "We can\'t really secure many pills for this battle because of the Blackwade Clan, so we can only make a short but decisive war. As for the traps, we have set many arrays in our surroundings, so no matter which direction they attack us, we have enough traps to slow them down."
"Good." The grand elder nodded. "From the direction of Blackwade Clan, we can roughly guess the battle location. It should be in the plain south of our sect. With five thousand people, they should only arrive tomorrow if they come at us right after the auction. Haiz... we are outplayed by them. To think they use the auction as bait to camouflage their real intention. Anyway, we shall prepare to the best of our ability. All elders shall gather the disciples and group them up."
"Yes, Grand Elder."
