Chapter 80 Infiltration

At night.

Thick clouds cover the silver moon in the night sky.

The moonlight is faint, like a touch of elegant ink in the dark night, looming.

Five or six hundred meters away from the south gate of Yinghuo City, in a dug trench, three scouts were lying in the pit, monitoring the movement of the distant city gate.

"This Yinghuo City is like a turtle shell. It's really hard to defeat it even after attacking it for so many days."

"Well, after all, it's still the Black Rock Leopard. Those monsters are too troublesome. I heard they were puppets created by wizards."

"Tsk tsk, wizard. I heard that it was because there was a wizard here in the Shining Leader that the Marquis sent two Earls to come together to create such a big battle."

"Is the wizard really as powerful as the legend says?"

The scout lying on the far left said dubiously. After a while, he found that the two companions did not respond. He turned around and looked in confusion, and was shocked to find that they had collapsed on the ground, motionless.

"not good!"

His heart tightened, and he immediately realized something was wrong, and was about to jump up. The next second, he felt a sharp pain in his neck, and his consciousness fell into eternal darkness.

Su Nan slowly retracted his palm, his face calm without a trace of ripples.

With his current physical fitness comparable to that of a peak knight, even without casting spells, it would be easy to quietly deal with three scouts who were not even knights.

After taking a closer look at the corpse's appearance and figure, Sunan breathed a spell.

Under the moonlight, his body shape and appearance changed rapidly, and in an instant he became exactly like the dead scout.

Even the clothes and weapons on his body are exactly the same.

[Magic Disguise]!

This spell can change the caster's appearance, including clothing and equipment.

Somewhat similar to [Transformation].

The difference is that [Magic Disguise] can only change the appearance. Even if it changes into a creature, it cannot obtain the ability of the creature.

Otherwise, a human spellcaster can only transform into a human, humanoid, or other bipedal creature that looks like a human, but not into a creature of another race.

After the disguise was completed, Sunan woke up the other two scouts and used [Charm Humans] to control them.

Then, he used [Silent Phantom] to transform himself into an injured appearance.

At this point, everything is ready.

Sunan ordered two scouts to lift him up and hurried back to the Storm Army's camp.

The storm army camp was brightly lit.

The bright light extends to a hundred meters away from the camp, and anyone who gets close will immediately notice it.

"stop!"

The guarding soldiers immediately noticed the three people approaching and immediately ordered them to stop.

"We were attacked by the enemy and a brother was injured!"

The guard captain signaled everyone to be alert, and he stepped forward to check. He quickly recognized that the three of them were the scouts sent out to monitor the city gate. Looking at the bloody wounds on the injured man's body, his doubts were relieved.

"The enemy troops have left the city?"

"No, Yinghuo City has not opened its gates. Those who attacked us should be enemy scouts."

The guard captain was relieved when he heard this, as long as there were no troops on the other side.

But just in case, he still said to the men beside him: "Ham, you go and report this matter to Lord Thomas."

"Yes, captain!" A soldier took the order and left in a hurry.

The guard captain turned to look at the three scouts, waved his hand and said, "Go in and carry the people cleanly to the injured camp."

The two scouts thanked him, carried their injured 'comrade', and hurried towards the wounded and sick camp deep in the camp.

Seeing this, the guard captain couldn't help but secretly sigh, the friendship between these three people is really deep.

In the center of the camp, command the camp.

In the spacious tent, a group of people sat together.

Earl Storm sat at the top, his face gloomy and silent.

The generals below looked at him with their eyes, nose and heart, but they were also silent.

After a while, Earl Storm finally broke the silence with a hoarse voice.

"It's been five days. You obviously have such a huge military advantage. Why haven't you been able to capture Yinghuo City yet? Give me a reasonable reason!"

The corners of the eyes of several older generals twitched, and they couldn't help but secretly curse in their hearts.

Military superiority is nothing.

It is true that we have more troops than Firefly City, but Firefly City also has the elite Black Rock Cavalry Regiment.

Apart from anything else, those five hundred black rock leopards used to defend the city were more useful than ten thousand soldiers.

If it weren't for the large number of knights on their side, Baron Flash would have led his men out long ago, let alone siege the city.

Being able to say this shows that the new Earl of Storm's military ability is worrisome and is far inferior to that of his brothers.

But having said that, if his abilities were not mediocre and easy to control, the Marquis of Jinyan would not have supported him to rise to power.

Seemingly realizing that he had lost his temper, Earl Storm took a deep breath, calmed down his anger, and said coldly: "This coward Key has been hiding in the city and won't fight us head-on. Can we bypass Firefly City and attack directly? Glitter City, force him to come out?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's mouths twitched and became more and more happy.

A general finally couldn't bear it any longer and said, "Sir, if we don't capture Yinghuo City first, if during the attack on Glitter City, Yinghuo City sends troops to attack from behind, the consequences will be disastrous!"

Earl Storm's expression froze, and he realized that he had asked a stupid question, and said angrily: "This won't work, and that won't work either. You guys should come up with a solution!"

Everyone looked at each other.

After a long while, an older general suggested: "Sir, we don't need to rush at all. Time is on our side. We just need to wait for Earl Wintershuang to capture Qilin City and join us. Then, with the combined strength of the two armies, it will be much easier to capture Firefly City."

Earl Storm's face darkened.

He understood this truth.

But if he really did this, Earl Wintershuang would take most of the credit for the attack on Flash Territory.

He was not willing to make wedding clothes for Earl Wintershuang!

Thinking of this, Earl Storm rejected with a dark face: "No, before Earl Wintershuang arrives, we must capture Firefly City!"

The generals looked at each other, and their faces showed helplessness.

At this moment, there was a sudden noise outside.

The Earl of Storm was just annoyed. He was furious when he heard the voice. He slammed the table and said, "Whoever dares to violate the military camp discipline and make a noise in the middle of the night will be dragged down and hanged!"

"My lord, something is wrong!"

The general who had just spoken stood up suddenly, and without waiting for the Earl of Storm to respond, he rushed out of the tent with a solemn look.

The rest of the people also reacted at this time and rushed out of the tent.

After leaving the tent, the sound suddenly became much clearer.

The crowd heard faint screams from a distance.

"That direction. It's the wounded camp!" The general's face changed drastically.

At this time, a messenger ran over with a panicked look, knelt on one knee and said urgently: "My lord, there is a monster over there in the wounded camp!"

"Monster? What monster?" The Earl of Storm was stunned.

But he soon no longer had to wonder.

With a rumbling sound, a tent a hundred meters away was suddenly blown up into the sky, and the strong wind blew away the smoke and dust, revealing a four or five meter tall humanoid creature made entirely of rock.

It casually punched down, smashing several soldiers in front of it into a meat paste, including their armor, and a huge pit appeared on the ground in an instant.

The terrifying power made many generals scalp numb.

Farther away, many identical rock monsters were destroying everywhere and slaughtering the soldiers who were fleeing in panic.

"What, what's going on?"

The Storm Lord stared at the monster in horror.

This is the core of the camp heavily guarded by tens of thousands of troops. How did these monsters appear here?
