1889 The Chase

At that time, they could only run around the world like a fireman.

Defeating one normal squad after another wouldn't be a problem, but doing so consumed too much time.

In terms of mission duration, it was too late.

It would be best to find the enemy's main force and devise a way to inflict significant damage!

However, Fang Heng didn't expect that his pursuit would last for over half an hour, even reaching the border between the Enkama Empire and the Jones Kingdom.

Passing through a canyon resembling a gourd, the Jones Kingdom's territory lay behind the plains.

Fang Heng, high in the air, observed the three buildings ahead.

Large war fortresses were constructed by the Jones Kingdom.

The three fortresses stood at the edge of the plain.

Two of these fortresses were built against the mountains, boasting formidable defense abilities.

After circling high above for observation, Fang Heng descended to the ground.

Following the scattered retreat of the Holy Court, they took shelter in one of the war fortresses.

It seemed the Holy Court had established a close collaboration with the Jones Kingdom.

The Holy Court team directly took refuge within the fortress.

This was troublesome...

Initially aiming to locate the Holy Court's main force and attempt to complete the mission through them, Fang Heng didn't find the main

"Should I consider assaulting the fortresses?" he thought.

However, these three military fortresses had exceptionally high strength, and capturing them posed a significant challenge. Furthermore, these belonged to the Jones Kingdom. Would capturing them contribute to the mission's completion rate?

As Fang Heng contemplated, a game notification appeared.

[Hint: Gan City, the territory of the Enkama Empire, is under attack. Players, please be cautious.]

[Hint: Mission completion rate reduced to -5%. The estimated remaining mission time is 56 minutes.]

Soon after, Fang Heng received a message from Li Qingran on the survival radio.

Excellent. This canyon segment wasn't the sole link between the Jones Kingdom and the Enkama Empire.

However, circumventing it would entail a significant time investment.

The Holy Court's team sent to assault the hinterland would probably opt for this passage!

Fang Heng ventured into the canyon to investigate.

Just as he had foreseen, the internal passage resembled a winding gourd shape, perfectly capable of concealing a multitude of zombie creatures.

Ideal for an ambush.

"This is it!"

Fang Heng surveyed his surroundings, leaping onto a massive rock.

Now, it was a waiting game.

Before long, magical arrays began to materialize on the ground around Fang Heng.

[Hint: Player's zombie clone (Normal Form) has been resurrected...] [Hint: The player's zombie clone (Vine Form) has been resurrected...]

The zombie clones steadily resurrected, gathering in the canyon and forming a loose assembly behind Fang Heng.

Under Fang Heng's control, the zombie clones, shaking and unsteady, stealthily hid within the gourd-like area of the canyon.

Fang Heng glanced back at the canyon entrance.

New tactic: intercept the line!

Whether it was the reinforcement lines or the retreating participants...

Intercept! Sweep!

Within the military fortress, the Jones Kingdom had decided to collaborate with the Holy Court, temporarily allocating a substantial section inside the fortress, including the teleportation passage, to the Holy Court.

Meanwhile, Bishop Kotter, following orders from the Holy Court's higher-ups, remained within the fortress, guarded by a contingent of Holy Court soldiers, keenly monitoring the unfolding battle.

At present, the Holy Court's knightly reinforcements were continuously descending from the advanced game world into the military fortress through the teleportation passage.

However, due to spatial fluctuations, the teleportation passage could only be activated intermittently, not in a continuous fashion. Once again, the teleportation passage emanated a dark golden light. Urbe, the Holy Court's Captain, accepted the mission and was the first to ride his Holy Warhorse out of the portal.

"Kotter."

"Ah, Urbe. It's been a while."

Kotter recognized Urbe and nodded. He checked the list in his hand and continued, "Your team comprises entirely of honorary knights known for their skill in ambush missions. Your task this time is to infiltrate the heart of the Enkama Empire and cause as much havoc as possible. In the event of encountering the enemy's main force, retreat immediately."
