MMORPG: War God, You are Invincible Again-Chapter 1371 - 346: Realization

The Ming Ze Army, supported by the Ancient Titans, has experienced a spectacular surge in strength. The Martial Emperor masters within the army have all advanced to become Martial Gods. Millions of Ming Ze troops have stepped into the Realm of a Grandmaster, and Martial Emperor level masters are now innumerable. This wave of enhancement has made the Mingze Domain the strongest nation on the entire Dark Continent.

Absolutely the strongest, without any exceptions.

The Titan Blood not only elevated the army’s realm but also pushed them a significant step toward the ancestral return to the Ancient Titans.

Without this catalyst of Titan Blood, an ordinary Martial Arts Grandmaster advancing to a Martial Emperor would simply experience a substantial increase in vitality, with a modest improvement in vitality quality.

However, under the evolution driven by Titan Blood, besides the inevitable enhancement, the size, physical strength, and resistance capabilities all multiply.

The Martial Emperors catalyzed through the Titan Blood’s ancestral return can defeat at least three Martial Emperors achieved through ordinary Martial Arts advancement, while those who have solidified their Martial Arts Realm can handle even more regular Martial Emperors.

Yet, despite the explosive increase in power within just one month, the Sky Family Master has not ordered a direct hunt for the two guards.

The reason is simple; the rapid advance in strength requires time to adapt, allowing these soldiers to become accustomed to their current power.

Having the realm without the corresponding skills and application is like a primary school student unable to lift a rocket launcher, without causing damage, it makes no difference whether you have it or not.

Thus, the Sky Family Master suppressed the urge to kill the two guards and chose to retreat for cultivation.

Once the Ming Ze Army that has absorbed the Titan Blood fully masters its strength, that will be the death day for Da Qin’s two guards!

The Sky Family Master could almost envision the Ming Ze Army sweeping over, annihilating Yanyang, destroying Da Qin, and such a future seemed too easy to realize.

The real ambition was to build a supreme platform within the Zhongding Domain, where all the citizens of the Dark Continent would come to worship him as the sole Dark Continent Emperor!

For the Ming Ze Army to abandon the chase of the Qin Long Guards directly, Lu Hong sensed something was amiss.

"Still no traces of any pursuing army?" Qin Hong asked the eighteen scouts once more.

The eighteen Qin Long Guard scouts all shook their heads: "Reporting to the Emperor Master, there are no signs of pursuing troops."

As they spoke, at least twenty more scouts returned on horseback from all directions.

Minutes passed as more than twenty scouts dismounted and reported to Qin Hong: "Reporting to the Emperor Master, no traces of the Ming Ze Army have been found."

Lu Hong remained silent and continued to wait.

At this moment, even the Qin Long Guard Commander standing beside Lu Hong detected something unusual and spoke suspiciously: "It doesn’t make sense; could the Mingze Domain have set a trap for us somewhere? But if they don’t send troops to pursue us, how would they know our next marching direction?"

This method of setting an ambush without sending even a single pursuer is certainly an event based on probabilities akin to waiting for the rabbit to fall into the trap.

But in warfare, who in the world relies on such an extremely low probability? If you rely on this, you might as well slit your throat early.

Thus, the fact that there has been no trace of pursuit from the Mingze Domain in over ten days puzzled the Qin Long Guards.

And the deputy generals nearby heard their commander’s self-talk.

Someone curiously responded: "Doesn’t the lack of pursuit mean they’ve given up chasing us? Then isn’t it easier for us to plunder cities and complete the mission assigned by His Majesty?"

Upon hearing this, the Qin Long Guard Commander rolled his eyes and then kicked the talking deputy general, knocking him to the ground, saying speechlessly: "You damn dog, how did you learn military strategy back in school? We’re not fighting bandits here. If the Mingze Domain has all its cities destroyed, how can a Great Domain function? Drink northwest wind, huh?"

The deputy general, kicked down, had nothing more to say.

Subsequently, everyone fell silent.

They waited quietly for half an hour, and three or four more waves of scouts returned, invariably reporting no traces of any enemy pursuit.

The last batch of scouts returned slowly, still unable to spot any enemy troops.

Upon hearing this, the Qin Long Guard Commander was even more incredulous: "Damn it, over 700 miles, 700 miles, and not even a single trace of a Ming Ze soldier could be found? Are they ignoring us and going straight to encircle the Upper Martial Guard? Yes, that indeed seems possible!"

The Qin Long Guard Commander excitedly patted his forehead as he felt his intelligence elevating and showing itself.

However, Lu Hong glanced disdainfully at him with his response: "Just shut up!"

Reprimanded by Lu Hong, the Qin Long Guard Commander deflated instantly, retorting without good humor: "Then Emperor Master, what do you think happened that’s causing them not to chase us anymore?"

Lu Hong shook his head: "I don’t know, but I am sure that next time, we will inevitably face extremely formidable enemies."

"Could it be that the Mingze Domain borrowed troops from another Great Domain?" For this terrifying realization, the Qin Long Guard Commander could only consider this aspect.

"No, it’s their strength that has grown tremendously, enough to kill us all!"

"Ha, impossible, absolutely impossible, my Qin Long Guards have exceptional mobility; ordinary infantry can’t pursue us. Even if they catch up, using our Combined Attack Formation, we can easily tear through the Ming Ze Army’s defenses and leave at will. They can’t stop us unless there are layers upon layers, enemies exceeding the number of Qin Long Guards several times over. But if they had that many, we wouldn’t confront them directly, Emperor Master, aren’t you overthinking this?" The worries Lu Hong had were incomprehensible to the Qin Long Guard side.

They simply did not know the means used by the Ancient Titans to cultivate powerful individuals.

But Lu Hong knew, he knew very well.

These past ten days of no pursuit had sparked many thoughts in Lu Hong’s mind.

This time, he had dispatched a full thousand scouts, expanding the alert perimeter to 700 miles, yet still found no trace of the enemy.

Hence, it was likely that the most feared scenario for Lu Hong was occurring.

"The Mingze Domain has allied with the Ancient Titans!" Lu Hong finally surmised the ultimate conclusion after much pondering.

After that, Lu Hong turned to the Qin Long Guard Commander and said: "Immediately gather all the Qin Long Guards, bring only enough dry rations for half a month, abandon all captured loot, and return to Da Qin! I will personally convey orders to the Upper Martial Guard."

The Qin Long Guard Commander was confused by this sudden command: "Huh? No, Emperor Master, we are fighting perfectly, having conquered twelve Ming Ze cities in a row. It went so smoothly; how can we just return now? Yanyang Domain should still be at war with our Da Qin. If we retreat like this, wouldn’t it completely ruin His Majesty’s strategy, all for nothing?"

Lu Hong didn’t bother explaining further to the Qin Long Guard Commander, turning to face him, stating word for word: "Execute my order immediately, or the Qin Long Guard will certainly perish in Mingze. Mingze has allied with the Ancient Titans; they are rapidly cultivating Martial Emperor masters en masse. Once they gather enough Martial Emperors, it will deal a devastating blow to the Qin Long Guards."

"Not that, what do you mean by cultivating..."

"I said, execute the order!" Lu Hong spoke as he began to leave: "If you don’t want to bury the entire Qin Long Guard, you’d better do as I said, leave Mingze, and return to Da Qin as quickly as possible, and relay my words to Qin Hong!"

As his voice faded, so too did Lu Hong’s figure disappear.

Relying solely on scouts to find the Upper Martial Guard fighting on another front of Mingze was a futile effort; they would be consumed by the vast ranks of Mingze’s Martial Emperors before they could be found.

Hence, Lu Hong decided to deliver the message himself.

Utilizing the Simulated Space Law of Chaos Law, Lu Hong performed consecutive space jumps, swiftly searching for traces of the Upper Martial Guard.

In just three days, Lu Hong found the Upper Martial Army, which was breaking through the city and collecting the spoils of war.

Without wasting words, Lu Hong ordered the Upper Martial to immediately abandon all loot and return to Da Qin.

And for the Upper Martial Guard Commander, who was a Martial Fool, communication was much easier.

Before the expedition, Qin Hong had specifically instructed to listen to Lu Hong’s orders, a message the Upper Martial Guard Commander had kept firmly in mind.

Therefore, when Lu Hong’s orders were issued, there was no delay; the Upper Martial Guard Commander immediately led a swift retreat back to Da Qin.
