Infinite Bloodcore-Chapter 661: Section 448: As Long as There is a Chance to Win!

Zi Di rapidly contemplated.

In just a few minutes, she was covered in sweat.

Zi Di tried her best to avoid combat, but Zong Ge made a very compelling argument. If they didn’t take the initiative to fight this time, the next would be even worse and more passive.

Zong Ge was also very responsible. He was willing to fight alone, creating more possibilities for Zi Di and the others to escape.

"I... agree!" Once Zi Di made her decision, she felt as if a huge burden had been lifted from her heart and mind.

Immediately, Zi Di and Zong Ge went to the other side of the gentle hill and, after making temporary arrangements, took out several Array Map plates from their storage equipment.

Zi Di skillfully installed the plates and quickly activated the Deception Array.

Privately, she had trained accordingly to be prepared for unforeseen events.

Zong Ge stepped into the center of the Array Map, and Zi Di took out Pearl Bubble, merging it into the slowly activating Deception Array.

The Magic Array shone brilliantly, emitting a fierce magical aura, yet Zi Di and Zong Ge weren’t worried about being exposed.

Because this Array Map was also endowed with the Deception and Disguise Skill in advance, even a Gold Level Mage using magical detection could hardly see through it.

Zong Ge personally set the effect of this deception.

The effect was simple and very direct, that is, complete invisibility!

Zong Ge first enhanced his equipment. He used two Pearl Bubbles just for the Golden Flower Steel Saw, and together with his other gear and himself, a total of nine were consumed.

Even though Zi Di knew the truth, at this moment, looking at Zong Ge, she could only see some blurry silhouettes.

"I still need to take some Pearl Bubbles. Twenty of them! Crush and scatter them during the battle, perhaps they will have miraculous effects," Zong Ge stepped out of the Array Map and directly stated his demand.

Zi Di shook her head, "To be safe, take thirty."

In her hands, there were only over sixty Pearl Bubbles, and for this battle, she directly invested nearly forty.

Zong Ge’s eyes showed surprise as he took the Pearl Bubbles.

At this moment, he had a newfound respect for Zi Di.

Zi Di managed a forced smile and said, "I am a great merchant, after all. At a critical moment, a great merchant is willing to invest."

"Follow my ghost. They can lead you to the enemy’s camp."

The wind howled and the snow flew.

Zong Ge left the main force alone, guided by a serpent-shadow ghost, gliding through the snowstorm towards the enemy’s location.

His whole person and all his equipment were enhanced with the Deception and Disguise Skill. To those unaware, he appeared as a transparent entity. In this heavy snowstorm environment, there were almost no flaws.

With the great battle imminent, Zong Ge’s mood became even more tranquil; he even began to recall the past.

In his eyes, the swirling snow gradually morphed into a sandstorm.

Back then, Zong Ge was only at Black Iron Level, following his swordsmanship instructor, leading a cavalry unit, fighting in the desert.

The sand pirates had united, elected a king of sand pirates, had already annihilated several towns, and plundered and slaughtered five oases.

The nobles also banded together, forming an alliance army.

When the decisive battle loomed and the two armies saw each other from afar, a sudden sandstorm attacked.

It was an abnormal weather stirred by the Sand God, whom the sand pirates worship.

Caught off guard, the Nobles’ Alliance Army used large-scale military Array magic, but still struggled to change the situation. The meticulous military formation was disrupted.

Taking advantage of the situation, the sand pirates launched a fierce attack; the Nobles’ Alliance Army, originally having superior forces, was embroiled in a bitter fight. Many nobles, seeing the tide turn against them, had already begun to retreat.

Zong Ge’s cavalry unit had lost contact with the main force and had trekked through the sandstorm for a while.

In the sandstorm, visibility was extremely low; Zong Ge could only see up to a hundred meters.

"Just like now," Zong Ge’s gaze was clear, the memory’s yellow sand turning into the reality’s white snow.

He stopped in his tracks, gazing into the distance.

In the swirling snowstorm, he faintly saw a deep green magic tent.

Just like when he had seen the king of sand pirates’ central tent emerging from the sandstorm years ago.

"Enemy spotted!"

"It’s the central camp of the king of sand pirates!!"

The cavalry hurriedly reported.

The swordsmanship instructor laughed heartily, "It seems the sandstorm is troubling the king of sand pirates too. I’ve heard that his faith is not devout; our opportunity is here!"

Zong Ge, still at Black Iron Level, looked worried, "But instructor, we only have a third of our people left."

Most of the cavalry had been lost or perhaps had fled directly in the sandstorm.

"With our current forces, can we really storm the enemy’s central camp? If we get entangled and the enemy reinforcements arrive, we’ll have nowhere to be buried!" Zong Ge expressed his concerns.

The swordsmanship instructor said, "The enemy is clearly unprepared. If we launch a surprise attack, they will likely fall into confusion. The best part is that they simply do not know how many we are. The sandstorm that hinders our army also obstructs the enemy!"

Zong Ge clenched his teeth, "It’s just possible we might win..."

The swordsmanship instructor suddenly interrupted him, "Don’t hesitate, Zong Ge, this is war!"

"Look for every possible chance of victory, even if it means risking our lives."

"The initiative is in our hands. As long as there’s a possibility of victory, we should take the gamble."

"All troops, prepare to charge!"

The charging horns of the past seemed to echo in Zong Ge’s ears.

He drew out the Golden Flower Steel Saw softly, step by step toward the magic tent.

Inside the tent, the Mage Jia Bing was casting a spell.

The spell’s target was the Axe Gang Leader.

"Endure it for a bit, it might hurt," Jia Bing warned.

He was in the process of lifting the Magic Contract binding the Axe Gang Leader.

The Axe Gang Leader burst into laughter, "Bring it on."

The next moment, the brilliance of the spell filled the entire tent, and a transcendent aura surged tumultuously.

"I’ll go out and keep guard," Lin said, maintaining the tacit understanding from his time in the army as he lifted the tent flap alone and stepped into the heavy snow.

He circled the tent, deploying his scouting Combat Skill, but detected no enemy traces.

He moved to the side of the tent, turned his back to the wind, unzipped his pants, took out his organ, and began to urinate.

"Hmm?" While urinating, he frowned slightly and turned around subconsciously.

There was only the wind and snow.

He turned his head back to continue, but suddenly felt a slight pain in his waist and abdomen.

The pain wasn’t severe. Lin muttered, "Is it because I’ve been with too many women recently?"

"I am of the Golden Level, how come I suddenly feel a bit weak?"

The next moment, he was engulfed in darkness.

His upper body, severed by a steel saw, fell into the snow.

Whoosh!

The tent flap was lifted.

The Axe Gang Leader and Jia Bing both turned their heads, only to see the snow blowing into the tent.

A flicker of unease crossed Jia Bing’s mind, but he quickly remembered that Lin was just outside the tent; being of the Golden Level with scouting Combat Skills, he had once been the strongest scouting force in the army.

Jia Bing set aside his worries and concentrated on continuing his spell.

"The snow is getting heavier, are those guys still out there?" The Axe Gang Leader also felt uneasy.

Jia Bing partially diverted his attention to look at the Magic Map on the table next to him, "Don’t worry, these people are still heading towards Rabbit Fur Town. According to their pace, they won’t reach the town until tonight."

The next moment, Jia Bing’s head flew off, and a spray of blood from his neck splattered across the Axe Gang Leader’s face.

In the Axe Gang Leader’s field of vision, the snowstorm intensified, and a plethora of snow hit him in the face, "This snow is a bit odd..."

He muttered, then his expression subtly changed, "Hey! Is this the end? Why do I still feel the Magic Contract?"

He was completely oblivious to the tragic death of Jia Bing.

"Lin, Jia Bing, what’s our password?!" The Axe Gang Leader crinkled his brow and suddenly shouted.

Zong Ge slowly stepped to his side, and upon hearing this, he quickly crushed the Pearl Bubble in his palm.

The Axe Gang Leader’s brow slowly relaxed, "The password is correct, but what’s going on? I feel..."

He subconsciously deployed Defensive Fighting Skills.

The Golden Flower Steel Saw was raised high and then plunged downward.

The next moment, the Axe Gang Leader’s chest was pierced by the steel saw. The saw activated, and his heart was shredded into pieces in an instant.

The rampant Fighting Energy eroded from the inside and swiftly demolished all of the Axe Gang Leader’s internal organs.

The Axe Gang Leader’s eyes widened, and in his dying moments, he saw through the illusion and grabbed hold of the hem of Zong Ge’s upper garment.

Blood splattered, triggering a strange light from the nearby Blood Vengeance Axe.

The odd light struck right at Zong Ge.

This was the last struggle of the Axe Gang Leader.

The next second, his blood-soaked hand fell limply.

Silence filled the Magic Tent, the scent of fresh blood spread, and only Zong Ge stood expressionless.

Minutes later,

Zi Di received the message and left the main force to greet the returning Zong Ge.

In the blizzard, Zong Ge carrying the corpses of three Golden Levels, approached Zi Di. freёnovelkiss.com

A flicker of shock passed over Zi Di’s face, quickly replaced by a complex expression.

Zi Di stared deeply at the Half-Beast in front of her, "So, you have advanced to Golden Level. When did this happen?"

Zong Ge calmly glanced at her, "In Snowbird Port, after the fight with the Li family’s Yue Qian."

Zong Ge’s Fighting Energy had already shown the golden sheen of Golden Level back on Mysterious Monster Island, just missing the last step.

Upon leaving Mysterious Monster Island, his arm injury had held him back, hence he hadn’t advanced rapidly.

After his injuries healed, the pressure from battling Yue Qian helped him successfully break through to Golden Level. However, he hadn’t volunteered this promotion, keeping even Sanda in the dark.

Zi Di took a deep breath, displaying realization, "No wonder you initiated a match with Yue Qian."

"And at Cold Wind Valley, when you fought with a Golden Level fighter, you were not at a disadvantage."

"Facing three Golden Levels just now, you chose to strike proactively because you were fully confident."

"You..." Zi Di started to say but then hesitated.

Her emotions were mixed.

On one hand, she was glad that the Dragon Lion Mercenary Corps finally had a Golden Level. On the other, she was worried that Zong Ge’s advancement to Golden Level would severely challenge the dragon-man youth’s leadership position.

Zong Ge explained, "Advancing to Golden Level is not something worth bragging about for me. More importantly, deceiving the enemy starts with deceiving your own people. Keeping this vital information confidential has proven to be highly beneficial for us!"

No sooner had he finished speaking, a flash of blood gleamed on his body, and then a trickle of fresh blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.
