Among the puppet army, Leo did not find any other hidden Lord of Souls, nor did Yaoyao; it seemed that there were only these fifteen in the puppet army.
The remaining nine, along with the strongest one, the Level-Five Lord of Souls, have all disappeared without a trace.
"Hmph, even if you hide underground, I will still find you."
Leo gazed at the vast army of puppets below, his Godslaying Staff flashing as waves of lightning swept across the land.
Like a silver ocean overflowing, a world of thunder descended, and with each casual strike, millions of puppets perished.
Leo's sorcery attack range is too wide; it can easily cover tens of kilometers in one go, and if he chants a spell, it can cover more than a thousand kilometers.
Since the remaining nine Lord of Souls did not appear, Leo simply helped the wizard army relieve some of the pressure.
With light footsteps, Leo appeared repeatedly on the battlefield, his figure visible wherever the puppets were concentrated.
Each appearance was accompanied by terrifying thunderous destruction; within a single day, hundreds of millions of puppet soldiers perished.
"Sir, the mothership is under attack."
As Leo was frantically slaughtering the puppet army, a distress call suddenly came from the mothership's command center.
"Damn, these Lord of Souls actually attacked the mothership."
Yaoyao cursed angrily and instantly disappeared into the shadows with Leo. If the mothership were destroyed, not only would it be difficult for these wizard armies to return, but the compensation for the loss of the mothership would also make Leo want to vomit blood.
Shadow Walking
Leo appeared quickly and saw eight Level-Four Lord of Souls besieging the mothership.
The mothership had no time to recharge its main and secondary guns and could only passively withstand the attacks of the Lord of Souls.
Fortunately, Leo had the mothership activate its protective shield in advance. Although the shield was on the verge of collapse under the attack of eight Level-Four Lord of Souls, it still managed to protect the mothership before Leo returned.
"Court death."
Leo let out a cold snort, and a loud 'boom' followed.
The low-level wizards could no longer see Leo, and the eight Lord of Souls besieging the mothership could only see a flash of silver light.
As the silver light flew past, the eight Lord of Souls completely lost their sense of the outside world. This was not because they were knocked unconscious, but because they were killed.
Leo's face was terribly gloomy. These Lord of Souls actually attacked the mothership while he was away. Fortunately, this time it was eight weak Level 4s who came, instead of that Level 5 one, otherwise the mothership would have been destroyed today.
"There's only one Level 5 Soul Master left. He's in the shadows, and we're in the open. He's not easy to deal with." Yaoyao's eyes darted around, trying to find the Level-Five Lord of Souls was hiding somewhere.
"Pass the order: lure the puppet army to the vicinity of the mothership for battle."
Leo dared not venture far, so he could only keep the battlefield around the mothership, so that he could take care of both low-level battles and protecting the mothership.
"Yes, esteemed Atomic Control Stigmata Wizard."
The command center issued an order, and the wizard army, which had already pushed far out of the battle line, began to retreat continuously. The puppet army had no subjective will; as the wizard army retreated, they advanced and attacked.
Once they were close enough, Leo unleashed a barrage of attacks from inside the mothership.
Despite the relentless attacks, over 70% of the puppet army has been killed, but the hidden Level-Five Lord of Souls still hasn't shown himself.
"Could it be that they left early? Or perhaps there was no such Level-Five Lord of Souls at all?"
Yaoyao couldn't help but raise a question. It wasn't that she doubted Black Soluo, but rather that the battle had continued for so long, and the Level-Five Lord of Souls mentioned in the intelligence reports still hadn't appeared, which was indeed easy to be suspicious of.
Their best chance to defeat the wizard army has now passed.
Just like when they attacked the mothership before, if that Level-Five Lord of Souls had joined forces, they could have inflicted the greatest losses on the wizard army. But even so, that Level-Five Lord of Souls still did not appear.
At this point, all the Level-Four Lord of Souls had been killed, and the puppet army was reduced to only 30%. This Level-Five Lord of Souls was powerless to prevent the Green Shade World from falling into the hands of the wizard army, so his concealment was meaningless.
But it still hasn't appeared!!
"A medium-sized world can't possibly have only some useless level four defenses. A Level-Five Lord of Souls is already rare enough; it's impossible that even this last Level-Five Lord of Souls doesn't exist."
Leo is more inclined to believe that there are Level-Five Lord of Souls in the Green Shade World, who may be hiding too deeply due to terror, fear, or other reasons, and never come out.
"You stay on the mothership, I'll travel the world, maybe I'll run into him somewhere," Yaoyao said.
"Okay, once I find the direct anchoring shadow, I'll be there instantly," Leo instructed.
Yaoyao left to search the world for this hidden Level-Five Lord of Souls, while Leo stayed behind on the mothership to assist the wizard army in besieging the remaining puppet army.
A year later, the puppet army had been wiped out, but there was still no sign of the Level-Five Lord of Souls, and Yaoyao had not found any clues.
"Disperse all wizards and slaves in groups of three throughout the world, reporting their routes and safety every hundred breaths up the chain of command."
Still unable to find the final Level-Five Lord of Souls, Leo had no choice but to use his entire army of wizards as a test. If he dared to make a move, he would expose his whereabouts.
The death of a few wizards and slaves is nothing; as long as we can find him, this price is entirely worth it.
Another year has passed, and the Level-Five Lord of Souls has still not been found, nor have any wizards or slaves encountered any unexpected situations.
Leo kept replaying Yaoyao's words in his mind. Did this Level-Five Lord of Souls come and then leave, or were there changes to the initial information about Black Soluo? He didn't know.
Just as Leo was getting a little irritable, the voice of Black Soluo appeared in his mind, Leo immediately entered the ocean of consciousness.
Black Soluo was waiting for him to appear above the ocean of consciousness.
"Did you not find that Level-Five Lord of Souls in the Green Shade World?" Black Soluo asked impatiently the moment he saw Leo.
"Yes, we've searched for two years, turning the world upside down, but we still haven't found him," Leo said.
"That's right. That Level-Five Lord of Souls left the Green Shade World before you arrived to carry out a secret mission."
"I'll briefly give you the next piece of information, and after you hear it, you must leave immediately."
"I've roughly figured out what those worlds that set traps are about. The Returning Breath World secretly found some level four and Level-Five Lord of Souls and sacrificed their lives to directly detonate the World Will that had been assimilated by the Returning Breath World Will," Black Soluo said in his fastest possible voice.
"What did you say? Detonate the World Will?"
Upon hearing that the so-called trap was like this, Leo not only felt a chill run down his spine, but his very soul felt a chill as well.
The World Will of these worlds has long been Returning Breath World Will. Now, by sacrificing the Lord of Souls to detonate the World Will, not only will the entire world be shattered, but the will of the Returning Breath World itself will also suffer a strong backlash.
This kind of tactic is simply a case of hurting the enemy by 500 while also losing 1000 of your own.
"That's right, just as you thought. And the Returning Breath World has already prepared its counterattack. Right at the edge of the Returning Breath World Will radiation, it's waiting for the wizard army to suffer heavy losses so that it can trap them all in these worlds. At that time, not only will their hidden Lord of Souls make a move, but the Supreme Lord will also join in."
"Leaving now is our only chance to escape," Black Soluo said.
"Okay, I understand. I'll leave now."
After hearing Black Soluo's intelligence, Leo was truly terrified, breaking out in a cold sweat. He felt that the Lord of Souls of the Returning Breath World had gone mad, willing to sacrifice even the world's World Will in order to harm the wizard army.
The World Will to ignite 521 worlds
Leo had never heard of a more outrageous plan than this.
If they succeed, wiping out all the wizard armies in these worlds, and if they can subsequently block all the Stigmata Wizard have been on their expedition to a thousand worlds, they can hold out on the battlefield for a longer period of time.
Even if they killed all twelve hundred Stigmata Wizard in these thousand worlds, it wouldn't change the final outcome. If such a battle were to occur, the Wizard World would not allow the Returning Breath World to surrender.
The enraged Wizard World could very well destroy the entire civilization of the Returning Breath World!
However, if such a plan fails, they will lose their last chance to turn the tide because their Returning Breath World Will will be damaged.
"They're insane, insane! How dare they do this?"
When Leo's consciousness returned from the ocean of consciousness, Yaoyao returned to Leo's shoulder. He also received Black Soluo's information and kept repeating unbelievable words.
"Let's run! If they trap us in these worlds, our strength won't last long." Yaoyao saw Leo wake up, she immediately requested that the mothership be activated to return.
"We cannot activate the mothership. We lack sufficient justification for returning. War Command will not approve of our actions. Once the Lord of Souls initiate the plan, we will be the first to be questioned by War Command."
"Besides, there's not enough time. It would take at least eight years to jump out of this thousand-world zone from the Green Shade World." Leo refused to pilot the mothership back.
"What should we do then?" Yaoyao asked.
"I'll contact Blue Dragon Heluoluo to open a spatial portal. You go and notify all wizards and slaves to return quickly. For those at distant teleportation arrays and locations with large numbers of people, use starships to transport them back. We must get them away as fast as possible."
Leo was thankful that he had entrusted the Thousand Pools World Thousand Pools World to Blue Dragon Heluoluo before leaving, which had truly saved his life!
