Firefly Journey

Chapter 300 The World's Attack on Chu (10)

“I don’t know anything about the Allied Forces,” Wind Chime said. “Don’t try anything with me.”

Despite the meetings between the Seven Churches, they have not communicated, let alone acted together.

The battle between the Empire and the State of Chu on the plains had nothing to do with the Church of the Seven Gods; it was entirely a unilateral action by the Empire.

Wind Chime was unaware of information within the empire.

Besides, even if she knew, she represents the Dark Temple, which stands on the opposite side of the Chu Kingdom. Why would she help you?

Lin Yuanran coughed awkwardly a few times.

"I have a bold idea; I need to make a trip to the Imperial military camp."

"There are fewer people in the west, what are you planning to do there?"

Lin Yuanran wanted to tell the truth, but he swallowed the words back.

If I told you I was going to assassinate Mond Toby, would you think I was crazy?

Others might think that way, but Fengling wouldn't, because she was an adventurous girl, and this was nothing to her. Perhaps if their positions were reversed, she would even dare to assassinate Henry I.

Lin Yuanran didn't say anything because their current situations were rather awkward. Essentially, he and Feng Ling were enemies. Could he just tell the enemy, "I'm coming to kill your people?" That would be... well, that's just too much.

"No matter what, I don't want to be on the opposite side of you," Lin Yuanran suddenly said in a deep voice.

Feng Ling didn't seem to care much: "This isn't something you can decide."

Lin Yuanran said, "I'm serious, that day will never come."

"I hope so. If so, I will prepare your body for burial."

"thank you."

"You're welcome."

Lin Yuanran was annoyed by the wind chime again and ended the call in frustration. To be fair, the wind chime did provide some information, such as that the probability of a successful infiltration from the west was higher.

Lin Yuanran watched the approaching sunset, then his body leaped into the air and teleported to a nearby tree branch.

It's still early, why not take a nap first?

Around seven or eight o'clock in the evening, when it was completely dark, Lin Yuanran suddenly opened his eyes.

Looking out into the boundless night, the place that was once a battlefield is now quiet, presumably because the victorious Empire has already cleaned it up.

Lin Yuanran jumped down from the tree branch and took three steps at a time to reach the plain.

The night wind was cold, the smell of blood had not yet faded, and there was no one around.

In such a short time, the Imperial Army naturally could not completely clean up the battlefield, and there were still many corpses and bloodstains everywhere.

After a full day of fighting, the imperial soldiers were exhausted and returned to their tents to sleep. Only a few sentries remained on the remaining battlefield.

The soldiers were far apart and occasionally dozed off, so Lin Yuanran could easily avoid them.

After traversing this shocking battlefield and rounding a hill, we arrived at the western camp that Fengling had mentioned.

At this distance, Lin Yuanran dared not use magic. There were definitely powerful superhumans nearby, and if there were any fluctuations in magical power, they would notice, which would be detrimental to his infiltration.

Therefore, Lin Yuanran made preparations in advance.

Under the moonlight, Lin Yuanran put on the "Thousand Illusions" and transformed into a soldier in imperial attire he had seen before.

After disguising himself, he swaggered into the camp gate.

Even at night, the allied camp was brightly lit, with patrols of soldiers passing by, and the defenses were tight.

Of course, this level of security is only relative to ordinary people. Lin Yuanran is a superhuman, and the patrolling and guarding soldiers are completely unaware of him.

The monstrous thing about the "Thousand Illusions" artifact is that once the disguise is complete, it will no longer emit any magical fluctuations until the owner manually removes it.

In other words, as long as Lin Yuanran does not reveal himself, even a god would not be able to detect his disguise.

Lin Yuanran, who infiltrated the Allied Forces' western camp, was not a headless fly. Through several days of observation, he roughly understood the layout of the Allied Forces' camp.

Henry I's main tent was in the very center, surrounded by layers of walls, making it the safest place in the entire camp.

Secondly, there were the various ancestral god churches, which were stationed on the northern slopes, far from the battlefield.

The west side is the route we came from, or you could say the rear. This position has the lowest probability of being attacked, so it's usually not heavily guarded.

That's why Lin Yuanran was able to easily sneak in.

Lin Yuanran remembered that officers of Mond Toby's rank held high positions, and his camp was located not far from Henry I.

Being so close to Henry I meant that there were many extraordinary individuals around, and if Lin Yuanran made a mistake, it would be difficult for him to escape unscathed.

However, Lin Yuanran wasn't worried about escaping at all.

He set up a spatial node far away from the allied forces' main camp, so that he could escape immediately if any unexpected situation arose.

If it succeeds, great; if it fails, run away. Lin Yuanran won't lose out either way.

Just kidding, his life is precious, why would he give it away so easily? Everything is under control.

With a general idea of ​​the location in mind, Lin Yuanran sneaked into the Allied Forces camp and disguised himself as a patrolling soldier, gradually approaching the center.

The closer to the center, the stricter the scrutiny. Lin Yuanran had no identity verification, so it was easy for him to be exposed.

So he quietly withdrew from the patrol team and went to a secluded corner to plan his next move.

Just then, an Imperial soldier appeared not far away.

He looked left and right, humming a little tune, but he couldn't see Lin Yuanran in the corner.

"brother!"

Lin Yuanran appeared from behind him and patted him on the shoulder.

"Who's there? Enemy attack!"

The man was so frightened that he quickly pulled up his pants and reached for the standard military knife at his waist, but the instigator, Lin Yuanran, didn't seem to care.

"Hey bro, what a coincidence, you're relieving yourself too?"

Only after seeing Lin Yuanran's face and attire did the man finally feel relieved.

You can scare someone to death, you know? Why did you suddenly appear behind me?

"Ahem, what a coincidence! Which team are you on, bro?"

Lin Yuanran didn't understand the detailed division of the Empire's army designations. His eyes darted around, and he said, "Oh! Don't even mention it. The troops were almost wiped out. I only escaped by playing dead!"

"Impressive!" Unexpectedly, the man gave a thumbs up. "You must be from the Bison Regiment. To be honest, I could tell from your outfit. You're really something, brother, to get into the Bison Regiment."

The Bison Legion... Why does that name sound so strange?

Forget it, I'm too lazy to complain. The important thing right now is to get information out of this guy.

"Don't even mention it, I just got back now, bro. Do you know where our corps' camp is right now?"

The man tilted his head and thought for a moment, "As for the exact location, I really don't know, but the Bison Legion performed bravely in this battle, so their encampment should be near the center."

After saying that, he pointed in a direction: "It's roughly around that spot."

Lin Yuanran smiled: "Thank you!"

"No need," the man replied politely. "Your unit's reputation is well-known, and I greatly admire it. We're both from the Empire; I was just pointing out the way, no need to thank me."

Lin Yuanran chuckled, thinking to himself, "I'm not on your side." He then announced his departure and headed towards the central command tent.
