Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong

Chapter 2070: Chapter 1159: Village of Mist_2

Besides this, Leo Ray also realized immediately that mind talk was again in a disturbed state, unable to connect with other subordinates.

Most importantly, by Leo Ray’s side was Sherry, who was originally the Chief Priest of the Illusion Spirit Race. She had sensed something in the first moment of the mutation.

It was thanks to her reminder that Leo Ray then instructed her to check the surrounding situation to confirm the scope of the illusion coverage.

Upon hearing Sherry’s report, the tense expressions of the subordinates and generals not only did not ease but became even more grave.

The opponent’s illusion matrix had come so unexpectedly that even our Tier 5 Powerhouses didn’t notice anything, let alone the other soldiers.

Astonished, Burt hurriedly asked, “Since in this direction we see scenes of betrayal and abandonment, what about the other directions?”

“What they see is exactly the same as here, except we’ve gone from being the attacked to the attackers.”

Sherry furrowed her brows and replied, “This illusion matrix is indeed very clever. It’s not a single illusion, but an illusion within an illusion, with each direction’s visions, including those of the vanguard and rear army, being completely different, which is why there’s such chaos now.”

Hearing this, our generals couldn’t help but draw a sharp breath.

The situation was already blatantly clear; the opponent was obviously using illusions to drive our forces into mutual destruction.

If this continues, our increasingly panicked soldiers might fail to distinguish friend from foe, the consequences of which are self-evident.

“I’m sorry, Lord, if I had detected it sooner, this situation wouldn’t have happened.”

Looking at Leo Ray’s solemn demeanor, Sherry was full of guilt and added another sentence.

“It’s not your fault. All of this must be the plot of that Number One Black-robed Person. Don’t forget that that guy is not only proficient in illusions but also wields Anti-Magic Power, capable of poking holes even in illusion matrices strong enough to trap Tier 6 Experts, as you can see.”

Leo Ray nodded to Sherry and said seriously, “The most urgent task now is to quickly unravel their scheme.”

As Leo Ray began to devise countermeasures, a completely different scene was unfolding in the enemy’s attacking army camps in other directions.

To the south of Brilliant City, all of the Summoning Corps had ceased their shelling and were on high alert.

“Ancestor, this illusion matrix is truly terrifying and must have been brewing for a long time. The youth cannot solve it, nor can they find a way out of the illusion range.”

Ester shook her head ruefully at Saul, her face full of gravity, “The youth can only try to minimize the illusion’s impact on us, unable even to concern themselves with those chaotic Grim Defectors.”

“Even you are powerless?”

Saul’s stern face remained severe as he shook his head slightly.

“Ancestor, what should we do now?”

Abner looked helpless, frowning and asking in frustration.

“All we can do now is preserve as many of our living forces as possible and not trouble the Holy Lion Prince any further.”

Saul responded without hesitation, “As for what comes next, it will depend on the Holy Lion Prince.”

Upon hearing Saul’s words, the kings and Defend the Nation fighters all nodded in agreement and then dispersed.

In stark contrast to the Summoning Corps was the Defector Corps led by Jered, which had already become a chaotic mess.

The soldiers looked terrified, furiously thrashing at the air with wild gestures, sometimes collapsing with white eyes under the illusion of being struck down by unseen enemies.

“Holy Knight Commander, those brave and fearless Puppet Soldiers are about to charge at us!”

A middle-aged defector general, trembling with fear, practically crawled in front of Jered with terror in his eyes.

“That can’t be true, His Royal Highness the Holy Lion would never strike us down mercilessly.”

With utmost certainty, Jered commanded, “Order the soldiers to continue closing ranks. This must be the enemy’s trick from within the city!”

“Yes, sir!”

The middle-aged defector general grit his teeth again and went off to carry out the order.

Watching the other’s embarrassed retreat, Jered felt a complex mix of emotions.

Though he couldn’t see through the illusions whatsoever, he stubbornly chose to trust Leo Ray, even if it led to destruction.

“Royal Highness Prince, I’ve entrusted everything to you, hoping you can bring a dawn.”

On the west side of Brilliant City, chaos was unfolding just as intensely.

“Your Majesty, my left and right flanks are under fierce attack from the Coldflame Grand Army! The northern siege forces have also completely lost contact! The order soldiers sent out can’t break through!”

The Spirit Wand Prince Valentin looked puzzled, asking in confusion, “Your Majesty, what is going on here?”

“The situation is more evident than ever; let’s not forget the cunning techniques of the chief Black-robed Person.”

Catherine, without hesitation, commanded Valentin, “Instruct the soldiers to shrink their formations. The Holy Lion Prince will surely find a way to break this illusion; we just need to wait for the good news!”

“But relying completely on an ally is too risky.”

Valentin showed a hint of hesitation on his pale face, suggesting, “Why not let me organize elite forces to break through first? At least ensure Her Majesty’s safety!”

“Do you think the enemy, having deployed such a net, would allow us a chance to break through?”

Catherine’s tone grew heavier, frowning, “Blindly attempting to escape the illusion will only result in getting deeper into trouble. No matter what, we absolutely cannot drag the Royal Highness Prince down!”

“As you command!”

Seeing Catherine’s resolve, Valentin said no more, immediately setting off to carry out his orders.

“Rest assured, whatever happens, the Royal Highness Prince will be my most important ally, and nothing can change that.”

After Valentin left, Catherine nodded at Taylor, who was anxious due to the inability to contact Leo Ray, her fair face full of unwavering determination.

While chaos reigned below the city, the New King Hull on the city wall laughed unscrupulously as he watched the illusion projections displayed by the grandly robed bishop.

“As expected of Chief Cardinal Gusta, causing a Million Army to fall into chaos with a snap of the fingers!”

As Hull laughed, a ruthless shadow slowly emerged, his voice chilling, “Though Father King didn’t destroy the Coldflame Kingdom, the Coldflame Kingdom will eventually be destroyed at the hands of the Lonely King! The Lonely King will make Coldflame Kingdom a field of corpses!”

He then turned to Gusta, chuckling sinisterly, “Of course, all this depends on Your Excellency, the Chief Cardinal.”

“Rest assured, to successfully cast this ’Killing Realm’ illusion matrix, I used a half-step Tier 6 Illusion Scroll as the base formation, with the help of that Supreme Lord, enough to slip past Tier 6 Experts for some time, invincible in the Human World.”

Gusta, full of pride, calmly declared, “This ’Killing Realm’ is even more profound than the one cast by those Otherworldly wretches in the Eternal Sleep Canyon.”

“Let’s not mention that most of the Otherworld illusions are currently focused in the Eternal Sleep Canyon; even if they all came here, there would absolutely be no way to unravel it, including that Rosy Queen Ester.”

“In other words, those Otherworld wretches are doomed this time.”

Gusta’s murky eyes narrowed with malice, mocking and disdainful, “While these foolish guys are still just fighting wits with illusions, in no time, they’ll be unwittingly slaughtering each other—that’s the truly interesting part.”

“Heh, the Lonely King can’t wait to see that scene.”

Hearing this, a sneer also surfaced on Hull’s malicious face, and he laughed chillingly.
