Chapter 1255  Ashbloom Order

If it was a normal situation Zhang Mengyao would give the permission immediately, but it was a different time. Especially after knowing the God Rank could invade Earth at any time in this one month. Lu An was actually the key to every Tang Empire's move against the World Government. She was not sure that the empire was ready to fight without Lu An. While they retreated from Europe, their next goal was to fortify the main territory and expand to the middle east and South East. Lu An returned to report the information he got from Reinar Thamsen. Of course, there were more than the resources that the Giteron Dynasty wanted from the Tang Empire.

However, it was not good to delay Lu An's advancement as well with the big battle ahead of them. The stronger Lu An was, the better for the next battle. After a little bit of consideration, Zhang Mengyao came up with a decision, "You can take the trial. This might be too much for you, but I hope you can finish the trial faster. We do really need you for the upcoming battle."

Lu An smiled, "I will do my best. I have assigned Sis Viona and Yeon Hee to take command of TEID. You can trust them just like how you trust me." After saying that, Lu An left the room.

Mongolia

The Polar Guild kept harassing the border of Mongolia after the Tang Empire took over. The person in charge of Mongolia was having a hard time with the constant harassment from the Polar Guild because their force was sparse with how big their border was.

Abaka, the native who was in charge of Mongolia, had been requesting reinforcement from the Tang Empire. However, he heard that some factions from the dimensional tower came to Earth, and the main force was fighting those factions. He understood why the Tang Empire could not send reinforcements to help him to hold the border.

A few hours ago, he received a message from the Vice Supreme General that reinforcements would come to help him. The news was received well by Abaka, and he had been waiting in front of the teleportation portal for three hours even though the message mentioned that the reinforcement would arrive in three hours. He kept reminding himself to keep his attitude respectful.

After three hours of waiting, the teleportation portal made a noise. Abaka raised his head in excitement, looking at the portal. The first four people came out of the portal, and four of them were women. He subconsciously frowned even though he reminded himself to be respectful.

The four women were Liang Suyin, Ashley, Delia, and Li Na. Followed after them were Wen the Jade Eagle and Kairu the Flaming Lion. Then five hundred knights of the Ashbloom Order followed. The five hundred knights were people picked by Ashley personally that she created after returning from the Ortis Continent. The five hundred knights were elite of the elite, all of them were Epic Rank.

Li Na recognized Abaka as the leader of Mongolia's territories, and she immediately approached him, "Hello, Sir. I am Li Na, and we are sent here to help you to fight the Polar Guild."

Abaka was distracted for a moment while questioning himself, 'Does the Tang Empire think that our territory is not that important?' Not just because of the four women, but also because of the number of people. The two beastmen were surely fearful, but their enemy was thousands, maybe over ten thousand. He thought that an additional five hundred people would be useless, 'Did I send the wrong data?'

Before sending the reinforcement, the Tang Empire asked the enemy's average level and also the number. He did not know the exact number, but there were dozens of Epic Ranks and their number easily surpassed five thousand. He could not get the exact number, but he estimated that low, hoping the Tang Empire would send at least a few thousand Tarriors to help them. He was not expecting a full force to wipe out the Polar Guild with the current predicament. However, he did not expect for the Tang Empire to send just five hundred people. What could five hundred people do against the thousand?

"I know you are disappointed with the number, but they are elite of the elite, Sir Abaka. I give you permission to use Detection on Ashbloom's knights," Li Na noticed the disappointment. Rather than having an unnecessary misunderstanding, she told Abaka to use Detection instead. Using Detection without permission was kinda rude, and it was an effective rule for everyone, including the people that were not in the non-combat class that was part of the Tang Empire. If one used Detection without consent, the violator would be fined. Repeated violations would end up in the dungeon for a few years. That was why Abaka did not use Detection from the start.

Abaka used Detection on the knights, not all of them, but all the knights in his sight. He showed no hesitation which proved that he did indeed doubt the Ashbloom Order. He did not mean to offend them, but that was just the logical thinking for the people who did not know about Ashbloom Knight.

Abaka's jaw dropped, and he could not help but glance at Li Na with a bewildered look. He was asking for confirmation, "That's right, all of them are Epic Rank, every single one of them," Li Na nodded with a polite smile, "Can we get somewhere else? I need to tell you our plan."

She told her plan, not discussing the plan. The meaning was clear that they came with a plan and would not receive orders from Abaka.

"Ah, yes. Please follow me," Abaka snapped out of his daze and returned to his respectful attitude. It was different if it was five hundred Epic Ranks. That should be enough to content the Polar Guild until the Tang Empire solved their main issue, but he was wrong about something, about Li Na's plan.

"Have you found their main base operation?" Li Na asked.

Abaka was confused at first, but he answered truthfully while shaking his head, "We don't know their main base operation. We focused on defending in the last few months."

Li Na glanced at Ashley, "We have to start from that." The latter nodded her head.

"Wait… May I know your plan?" Abaka interrupted the two. He felt like the plan did not align with his plan. His plan was simple, defending the border until the Tang Empire sent their main force to hit the Polar Guild. Their opponent was a guild, one of the top eleven guilds in the world. There was no way they would beat them with just five hundred. He was relieved with the five hundred Epic Ranks, but he felt like it was still impossible to beat the Polar Guild with just five hundred.

"We plan to attack their main base and force them to retreat," Li An told the plan as simply as possible. That sounded simple, but that was not simple at all in Abaka's head.

"Is there another reinforcement coming?" Abaka could not help but ask. That was the only explanation for Li Na to make such a plan.

"No, just us. Don't worry, we will not ask you to join us. It will be just us," Li Na explained, misunderstanding Abaka's question. She thought Abaka did not want to join because they were too weak to participate in a fight. Abaka himself was Epic Rank, there were no more than thirty Epic Ranks in Mongolia. It was a miracle that they managed to hold down for long.

"That's not what I mean," Abaka shook his head, waving his hand, "We are talking about the Polar Guild. From what I know, their Guild Leader, Yury Semenov, is Myth Rank. They also have a few thousand mercenaries from the dimensional tower, and the mercenaries are stronger than the Polar Guild's main force too. There's one Primordial Rank from the mercenary."

"We know about that. Didn't you give us the data? We are aware of their average level and ranks," Li Na nodded, "Leave everything to us. We will drive them away."

Abaka was left speechless. During the discussion, he just listened to them quietly from the side. He made sure not to miss a single piece of information. They asked him where the Polar Guild would frequently attack, and more questions about mercenaries. Mostly about where they attacked them from. After fifteen minutes, they ended the meeting and asked him to lead where the mercenary attacked pretty often.

 "We have lost a few hundred people because of the mercenary, and we stopped defending the area for a while because of that. However, the mercenary never entered our territory even once, as if their attack was just a distraction," Abaka led Li Na's team to the mountainous area. The area where the mercenary was active. There was a tall wall separating the border between Russia and Mongolia, and Abaka bought the wall, "The wall had been destroyed twice, but they never entered our territory or even tried to take over our territory. I don't know why."

They stood on the wall, below them was a forest. The trees obstructed their vision as they could barely see through the tree. It was hard to see the enemy's movement if the enemy wanted to be sneaky, and Abaka did not try to clear trees. At least, they should cut the tree below the wall and five hundred meters further, or else, the wall was pointless.

"I guess this is good for us," Ashley commented, "We can sneak through the forest if the mercenary makes the camp nearby."

"Then I will start right away," Li Na summoned her summon.

The creature was a big black sticky ball with a pair of wings and one eye occupied most of the body. It was the creature she summoned through The Circle of Void, a void creature called Void Eye. Void Eye had the ability to see through inanimate objects, and its vision covered a vast area, more than ten kilometers. Of course, that was not the only one of its capabilities. It has many deadly skills, and one of them was Petrify Gaze. One of its strongest skills, turning anyone who saw its eyes into void stone.

Li Na used Void Eye to scout the area, and they shared the vision together. It did not take long for Li Na to discover the track of the mercenary. Just as they predicted, the mercenary made camps, many small camps, scattered around the forest. She found seven small camps through Void Eye.

"I have found seven small camps, but there might be more. Should I look further, or do we take action immediately?" Li Na asked Ashley. While she was the one who talked with Abaka, Ashley was the one in charge of this fight. She was the one who made the decision.

"Let's enter the forest and scout more areas if possible. After we find all the camps, we will attack them immediately," There was no reason for them to delay the attack. Ashley decided to enter the forest and took action as soon as they arrived.

"Are you sure you don't need our help?" Abaka asked once more for confirmation. He felt bad for not helping, though he was still doubting them. He felt like he should help them at this time.

"Just keep contact with us and immediately notify us if the Polar Guild attacked another place," Ashley shook her head and gave the man a command. There was no discussion anymore as she brought five hundred knights into the forest with Void Eye floating above him with its invisibility.The source of this ᴄontent is nov????l(f)ire
