At that time, when Zhuge Feng was looking towards the west with eyes full of earnest wishes, a soft sound of laughter was coming from the highest peak of the western land.
“Yes, it has to be like this. “It has to be like this.”
The messenger, who had just finished reporting, was inwardly relieved to see the blood master nodding his head with a smile on his face.
I brought him good news that he would be fully satisfied with.
The fact that I don’t have to be killed by a violent superior right in front of me like my colleagues who have already been reduced to cold corpses one after another.
But it’s still too early to be reassured.
Because this time is not over yet.
“So, you’re saying you’re just paying attention?”
In response to Hyeolju’s question, the messenger lowered his posture even further and answered.
“That’s right. “Gupa Il-bang and O Dae-sega are only keeping an eye on the situation and preparing thorough defenses, but there is no sign of any further movement.”
“Normally, we praised each other and said that we are righteous and faithful, but when the situation arose, we became very scared.”
At that moment, when Hyeolju’s smile became even deeper, a sonorous voice rang out from somewhere.
“It’s better to be a coward than to be stupid like someone else. is not it?”
After identifying the owner of the voice, Hyeolju frowned without realizing it, but soon responded in a relaxed tone.
“That is absolutely correct. Because stupidity is directly linked to incompetence. “I guess that’s why he entrusted this plan to me.”
“You also arbitrarily took the magicians under my command and did things to them?”
“Is there a need for me, who has been entrusted with all matters in Cheonghae Castle, to consult with the commander?”
The great magician who had been pointed out for his failure in Gansu smiled coldly.
“Your eloquence has definitely improved. By any chance, was it your head that was cut off last time, not your arm? “I have to praise you for being a little smarter.”
For an instant, the smile on Hyeolju’s mouth faded.
At the time of the incident that the Jungwon martial arts group named the Shaolin Blood Death, the loss of one arm from a single blow by the swordsman Mae Jong-hak had long since become an obstacle that should not be touched by him.
‘You damn bitch.’
Of course, the purpose was fully achieved.
He took the most important green jade Buddha statue and killed many monks of the Shaolin Temple, including the head of the temple, Goengdo, causing a huge blow.
However, unlike this successful outcome, the damage to pride suffered in the process showed no signs of easily recovering.
Just thinking about it again gives me a chill in my heart, so much so that the area where the purple sword struck back then still throbs even now that the new arm is in place.
And to the extent that he still retains his anger towards a one-day puppy who stood up to the end without being afraid of him at all.
“Shut up. “Because it’s not something that someone like you who wasn’t even there can argue about.”
The great wizard grinned at the blood vessel’s subdued voice.
“that’s right. “That was the most disappointing thing.”
“what?”
“If I were there, I wouldn’t have even brought up the nonsense from the beginning about losing after competing with the Sword Master for hundreds of battles.”
“… … !”
“Tell me honestly. Fire King (火王), even after going through a life-or-death battle with that violent old man, he won hundreds of won with the Sword Master? The liver is also big. “How dare you lie to him?”
“Your delusions are excessive. “I always told him the truth.”
Hyeolju tried to answer calmly, but he knew better than anyone else that the great sorcerer’s words were true.
right.
He falsely reported to Heavenly Father about the final battle of Maison Hak.
For the first and last time in my life.
Why did it have to be like that?
It was simple.
I was angry, but at the same time, I was afraid.
If he had known Mae Jong-hak’s identity from the beginning, if he had prepared for his appearance in advance and saved his strength, he would not have been able to withstand even three hits and had his arm cut off.
And if you reveal this truth without any hesitation, you may be abandoned by your master, who you trust and follow like a god.
‘But he believed in me. That’s it.’
Hyeolju quietly calmed his mind.
It doesn’t matter what the great wizard says in front of you.
Whether you truly believed in him or knew but pretended not to know him, God did not consider it an issue and it will remain the same in the future.
“Leave it at that. If you keep doing that, it makes me want to blow your bitch’s head off.”
The great sorcerer shrugged his shoulders at the warning from Hyeolju, who had completely regained his composure.
“I doubt if I have the ability to do that, but let’s quit. “I don’t want to lose my energy before a big day.”
Hyeolju nodded his head without saying a word.
They were two people who growled at each other non-stop, like they had been friends since their previous lives, but completing the mission given to them by their master was more important than anything else.
“As you might have guessed, as of now, even the Central Plains will not be able to get involved in the affairs of Qinghai City.”
The westward advance of the Green Lim League and the Yangtze River Waterway Alliance is continuing at this very moment.
Of course, if the Murim Alliance, which has gathered the power of the central plains, shows its full power, it will collapse at once, but it is not easy to take a heavy step as it is shackled by Lee Dong-jin.
No, it’s not just easy, it’s close to impossible.
Recruiting enough troops to save Cheonghae Fortress means cracking the solid wall of the central plain.
“If we want to save Cheonghae Castle, the central defense will be weak, and in order to defend ourselves, we will have to abandon Cheonghae Castle.”
Hyeolju, who regained his smile, continued speaking.
“It’s been worth the effort put into the midfield thieves. This is the perfect external balance. is not it?”
But unlike him, the corners of the great wizard’s mouth, revealed beneath the cotton, did not even move.
“Of course I know. That’s why it’s even more disappointing.”
“Is there any reason to be regretful? “It will only be a matter of time before Seonyeong, where they are concentrated, will be surrounded from front and back.”
“Is that all?”
“Completely take control of Cheonghae Castle, and according to future orders, if possible, secure Jin Tae-gyeong as a new soldier. Wasn’t that his instructions?”
The great sorceress laughed in response to Hyeolju’s question.
“I guess I should take back what I said earlier. “You’re still the same idiot.”

“what?”
“You still don’t know? “If the Murim Alliance had moved this time, we could have gotten the Jungwon Murim, or rather, everything he wanted.”
Staring straight at the blood vessels visible through the dense cotton thread, the great wizard added softly.
“Under heaven.”
“… … !”
“You should have consulted me before making your decision. “You’re using a precious magic circle that can only be used twice for something like that.”
Ugh.
The energy that sways along with the cool voice.
At this moment, the great wizard was truly angry.
Because of Hyeolju’s foolishness in moving a large number of troops without even having a single discussion with him.
As a result, Amcheon wasted dozens of magic circles that it had installed throughout the world over a long period of time, and missed the golden opportunity to take control of the world.
However, despite her angry appearance, the smile on Hyeolju’s mouth did not disappear.
No, on the contrary, it became even darker.
‘what?’
The moment the great wizard belatedly realized something was strange, the blood master blurted out in a mocking voice.
“I think you should take back what you just said. Did I look that stupid?”
“What is that?”
“Yangtang River and Green Forest. Those dirty thieves were only recruited from the beginning to be used as bait. “I had no intention of putting all my effort into bait like that.”
The great wizard’s eyes widened as he realized the meaning behind those words.
“Then maybe… … .”
“okay. It was just to show you. At the same time, I also had a feeling of hopelessness. “Unless the midfielders are quite assholes, they would have been on the lookout for the existence of the magic circle ever since.”
Therefore, an experiment was necessary.
The dozens of magic circles secretly installed throughout the world by dark heaven magicians have yet to be discovered.
So, testing to see if it’s still working properly.
“And, through this opportunity, I was able to find out exactly.”
The result was a success.
A total of 10,000 followers of Dark Heaven crossed over to the central plains through the magic circle and joined the Noklim Alliance and the Janggang Suero Alliance, and Hyeolju only heard about this a little while ago.
Through the messenger in front of me, who until now has not dared to raise his head.
“Perfect. Unfortunately, a couple of the magic circles used when attacking Shaolin may have lost their effectiveness, but most magic circles still have one chance left.”
At some point, the great wizard, who had been listening to the story with his mouth firmly closed, suddenly muttered.
“that’s enough. “If that’s the case.”
There is no need to mobilize all of Amcheon’s current power.
If tens of thousands of troops were dropped into the heart of the central plains at once and the major factions were destroyed, the world could be won in just one great war.
However, this alone cannot calm all the anger.
The great sorcerer stared at the blood master with penetrating eyes.
“I understand the reason and justification. But this is not enough.”
“why?”
“We still have one last chance to activate the magic circle, but that will make them even more wary of us.”
“No, it would be the opposite.”
“what?”
“If thieves start running rampant everywhere and we don’t do anything to help them, wouldn’t it be even weirder?”
“… … !”
“It was something I had to do anyway. “At least to keep an eye on the two thieves who might change their minds at any time.”
Being able to betray once means being able to betray twice or three times.
The 10,000 followers from Dark Heaven sent earlier were also a deterrent to prevent that betrayal.
So that the Noklim Alliance and the Yangtze River Alliance cannot have different feelings.
Another shackle that makes it impossible to even dare to do that.
“No matter how it goes, there’s nothing bad for us.”
Hyeolju stood up and continued speaking.
“If the chivalrous governors of the central region who cannot overcome their guilt stand up and leave their seats, the magic circle will shine.”
Jerk. Jerk.
Following the slowly echoing sound of footsteps, his voice dispersed.
“Even if we maintain our position, we will cross Cheonghae Fortress and head to the central plains.”
Sure.
Following the blood leader’s outstretched hand, the heavy iron door opened.
And below, there were numerous armies dyeing the mountain range pitch black.
“Raise an army. “I’m going to Seonyeong.”
