The defeated soldiers of the Game God Sect, who had been placed in their large camp earlier, suddenly launched a counterattack, activating various magical artifacts simultaneously. This sudden anomaly left them bewildered, and all the Divine Warriors could not comprehend how so many magical artifacts had appeared within their own defenses—could it be that the elders above had already set up traps within the formation that were now coming into play?
What followed was akin to the apocalypse for the Divine Coalition. Those suddenly appearing magical artifacts, along with the Game God Sect warriors they had previously considered allies, mercilessly raised their blades against them!
Kill!
"The western front collapsed first; there were no elders stationed there. Several elders had counterattacked while retreating from the Demon Clan, only to be entangled by them! Once a breach was created, others could no longer hold on. In no time, all defenses were breached by these bastards!" When Lingxuan Elder explained the situation, he could not suppress his anger and grief. It was not just that his disciples had suffered heavy losses; more importantly, they had been defeated in a shameful betrayal!
"Alright, we now have a general understanding of the situation. The Demon Clan has completely shattered our outpost! The current situation is extremely urgent. Although we have barely formed a temporary defense, it won't hold for long. Even if we cannot repel the Demon Clan in a short time, we must think of a way to block them."
An elder from Xuanmen suggested, "What other options do we have? It's nothing but fighting to the death. However, on the other side, the Dragon City forces also sent seven thousand warriors this time, didn't they? Although their strength is far inferior to ours or any faction of the Holy Divine Gate, they are still a relatively strong force under the current circumstances. Please have Jiang Xue bring people for support immediately, and also draw some warriors from other directions to assist us here. We don't believe that they can exert such pressure on us simply because our forces are scattered while theirs are concentrated in one direction. If we also concentrate our strength, they will surely not be our match!"
A portion of those in the Main Tent changed their expressions!
While this elder's suggestion sounded reasonable, they knew that the high-ranking officials of the Allied Forces had already received intelligence about Dragon City's forces being diverted elsewhere, and this elder was certainly one of those in the know. Since he was aware that Dragon City's Army had been moved away yet still deliberately proposed such a suggestion, it was clearly intentional!
However, even if Jiang Xue understood his intentions, she found herself in a difficult position. Previously, during the great battle with the Demon Clan, it was precisely because Jiang Xue brought reinforcements from Dragon City in time that they turned the tide and reversed the situation; this left a profound impression within Xuanmen and even among all the Allied Forces of the divine race.
Now his proposal deliberately pointed out this fact to push Jiang Xue and Dragon City into a corner.
—If you do not send your Army this time, it will be seen as abandoning us; if you come but ultimately fail, it will imply that Ming Long City's strength is not impressive after all—perhaps last time was merely a fluke—and then why should we maintain this alliance with you?
As for the second proposal, it was merely a smokescreen intended to avoid leaving behind a reputation specifically targeting them.
The expression of the True Navigator darkened. He had always known that there were some people within Xuanmen who were quite dissatisfied with his close ties to the Dragon City forces. However, as contact with the Dragon City forces increased and the major cities controlled by Xuanmen reaped more and more benefits, even high-ranking figures like Elder Wuxuan had shifted to a "it wouldn't hurt to engage with them further" attitude.
He did not expect there were so many hidden dissenters.
With the proposal from the high ranks of Xuanmen, the members of the Holy Divine Gate could no longer sit still, each one shouting in response.
"Everyone, no one can guarantee that there won't be other Demon Clan members launching surprise attacks from the direction of our Dragon City. Frankly speaking, while you are setting up camp, your defenses in our direction are likely the weakest, right?"
"Uh." The crowd exchanged glances, feeling uneasy.
"How about this? We will also provide support, but it will be limited to fifteen hundred people. This way, it can serve as a fresh force. However, I still want to remind you that the Game God Sect understands you far better than the Demon Clan does. This is why they were able to strike at your weak points directly this time. If you do not make targeted changes, you will suffer similar losses in future battles."
Upon hearing Jiang Xue mention sending only fifteen hundred people for support, the expressions on everyone's faces were somewhat acceptable. After all, many among them were aware of the current situation on the Dragon City side in the mountain camp; they viewed this as a significant display of Jiang Xue's sincerity.
Although some people scoffed at this number upon hearing it, their momentum was considerably diminished.
The True Navigator recalled what Jiang Xue had said when she was invited here earlier. He sincerely stated, "Jiang Xue, the situation has indeed changed drastically as you mentioned. The battle tactics of us old fellows have already been understood by those from the Game God Sect. Therefore, it would be better for you to propose some ideas; perhaps they will catch them off guard."
Jiang Xue nodded slightly. After this turn of events, it seemed that those self-important individuals from Xuanmen and Holy Divine Gate had also suffered considerable blows. Especially among those elders aligned with their side, their status had been greatly elevated.
Now even if she said things they usually dismissed, it would likely not be too hard for them to accept.
"First of all, we can at least reach a consensus: for whatever reason, the Game God Sect has established connections with the Demon Clan and is currently in an allied state. Moreover, due to some special reasons, the power of the Evil Extermination Sect has suffered significant blows in a very short time. Therefore, regardless of any unexpected events on their side, we must not place all our hopes on them."
"That is true! During the last great war, when we were encircling the Brahma Demon King with several Masters, the Master of Victory suddenly went missing halfway through. He even claimed to have seen movements from people of the Third Realm and went to track them down. It seems that at that time, he must have already been in cahoots with the Demon Clan. That is why he showed mercy to the Bowan Demon King's subordinates at such a critical moment."
Jiang Xue exchanged glances with the True Navigator, who did not agree with his speculation.
At that time, the Demon Clan had already begun indiscriminate assaults on the entire divine race. The cooperation between the two forces could not simply be resolved by a few words from their leaders. It was believed that the significant losses suffered by the Game God Sect during that great war would have instilled a deep-seated hatred towards the Demon Clan, not to mention the grievances built up over ten thousand years.
It was certain that something unknown had occurred during this period, which also greatly benefited the Game God Sect, allowing Bowan Demon King to persuade them.
However, such speculation would at least not harm their current situation. It could strengthen everyone's resolve for a desperate fight.
Jiang Xue no longer hesitated and directly said, "First, I hope everyone can mentally prepare for a complete defeat in this battle. Although we may not necessarily lose, since the Game God Sect and the Demon Clan dare to launch an attack directly, their preparations are definitely not limited to just this one move!"
As soon as Jiang Xue finished speaking, everyone's expressions turned extremely grim.
This included the True Navigator, who had humbly sought her advice.
They had just begun fighting and she was already preparing them for defeat? What was this woman thinking!
