Yangyang in Danger

In Jinzhou Norfall Barrens returned to his camp at Midnight Rangers.

"That's strange... They said Threnodian was about to wake up, but Retroact Rain has stopped for quite a while..."

"Yes, the supplies have already been delivered ahead of schedule, and our comrades are ready for battle... but there's still no movement from the north..."

"The Tacet Discord of daily harassment have decreased... I have a feeling something big is about to happen..."

Listening to the discussions among the soldiers of the Midnight Rangers under his command, Jiyan, who had been sitting in front of the sand table with his eyes closed, opened them. His golden dragon eyes looked towards the huge stone statue in the east that represented the Jué.

Even the ordinary soldiers could see it: Threnodian acting suspiciously, so how could he, as the commander-in-chief, not know?

However, there was no intelligence at the moment, and if they underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, they could easily fall into Threnodian's trap, resulting in heavy losses. Therefore, Jiyan had no choice but to send Pioneer to gather intelligence, while the main army remained stationary.

Hurried footsteps came from outside the military tent, and a Midnight Rangers dressed as an officer entered, standing at attention and saluting Jiyan.

"General, Yangyang Pioneer has sent intelligence that half an hour ago, a large number of low-level Tacet Discord appeared in the Tacet Field the Dim Forest Frontline Line, heading towards the high mountains in the northwest, their purpose unknown."

"The northwest..." Jiyan lowered his head in thought. "I understand. Tell Yangyang Pioneer not to act rashly and to maintain contact. Summon all senior officers of the Vanguard to my tent for a meeting!"

"Your subordinate obeys!"

The sea breeze is gentle, Phoebe chirps.

Well, actually the sea breeze isn't gentle, and the climate in the Stormy Ocean is very changeable, especially for Lu Guan crossing the ocean from north to south from Lahai-Roi to Huanglong Jinzhou.

Having learned from his previous experience by boat, and in order to avoid any unexpected encounters, Lu Guan chose to conserve his Resonance Power and head towards Jinzhou using only the simplest method of flight.

Dania originally planned to come along, but after Lu Guan refused, she decided to take the route through the Black Shores and had even accepted the mission. However, the Shorekeeper refused her because she was not allowed to participate in high-risk missions independently during her internship.

Unlike the original storyline of the game, Huanglong, who received an advance warning from Black Shores, did not completely abandon Jinzhou.

The Huaxu Academy in various states provided Jinzhou with a large amount of anti -Retroact Rain medicine and "Desolation" inhibitors. In terms of supplies, neighboring states also signed temporary emergency transportation agreements with Lollo Logistics to deliver supplies to the front lines in Jinzhou.

In terms of troop support, adhering to the principle of valuing quality over quantity, in addition to Lu Guan himself who came from Lahai-Roi, several other high-level Resonator from Teng have already set off for Jinzhou.

It can be said that, due to the "Desolation," the Huanglong Jué this time is beyond imagination.

"I wonder how Yangyang is doing now?" Lu Guan thought of his friends in Jinzhou as he flew, "Jinhsi, Changli, Sanhua..."

"And then there's the Rover; according to the Shorekeeper, her arrival should be within the next few days..."

"I wonder how the Jué is doing... This is the first time I've faced Threnodian afflicted by the ' Desolation,' I hope it won't be Aleph-1's fight..."

"Oh right, and the Fractsidus. Those lunatics—after that probing attack by ' Balanophora,' they haven't made a sound. Could they be secretly plotting something big for me?"

Lu Guan's mood grew heavier as he thought about it. Based on his understanding of the Fractsidus, he was certain they would get involved in the Jinzhou incident. Adding this variable to an already complex situation...

The situation may very well exceed his expectations...

"Whatever, let's trust the Rover for now. If all else fails, I'll just unleash the explosion..." Lu Guan shook his head, putting his worries aside. "At worst, I'll just activate the Immortal-Slaying Sword Formation again..."

Meanwhile, Yangyang encountered some trouble.

After receiving Jiyan's order, Yangyang did not act rashly, but instead concealed herself and observed the "marching" of the Tacet Discord tide.

The more she looked, the more horrified she became. In her memory, most of the Tacet Discord were just monsters that acted on instinct, relying on the frequency of their devouring. They had no discipline whatsoever, and they didn't even have self-awareness.

But what she was seeing now overturned her previous understanding. The Tacet Discord had actually formed a formation like an army, as if someone was controlling them.

"The Whiff Whaff on the outer perimeter, the Violet-Feathered Heron and Chasm Guardian are deployed throughout the formation, and the Havoc Warrior are leading the way. Their positions and roles are clearly defined. Is this a wandering Tacet Discord or an army marching?"

"No... I must report this to the general." Yangyang took out her terminal to try to contact the camp, but there was no signal.

Yangyang immediately understood the reason. "Is it because the frequency of a large number of Tacet Discord is interfering with the communication channel?"

"It seems we must evacuate and find a safe place."

When this thought popped into Yangyang's mind, a strong sense of crisis suddenly warned her, and she retreated without hesitation.

Moments later, the boulder where she had just hidden was blasted into dust by a rain of lightning bolts falling from the sky.

The Tacet Discord legion, which had just been marching towards the mountaintop, all turned their gazes toward Yangyang, who had been exposed.

"Oh no! We've been discovered!"

Knowing she couldn't win, Yangyang immediately tried to retreat, but the Tacet Discord Legion reacted quickly, with the more mobile Whiff Whaff scattering in all directions and spreading outwards.

"It will be dangerous if they form an encirclement!" Yangyang immediately understood the Tacet Discord Legion's idea. Shocked, she didn't dare to hesitate and immediately broke through towards the area where the encirclement had not yet been formed.

However, there are also many ranged Tacet Discord in the Tacet Discord legion. The team that attacked Yangyang's hiding place earlier was a group of Violet-Feathered Heron. Now they are using the same method to block Yangyang's movement.

The Tacet Discord Elephant Legion moved with lightning speed and precision, completely unlike what one would expect from a Tacet Discord Elephant. Their discipline and coordination were even more terrifying than some of the armed forces in the Huanglong region...

After all, even the best-trained army cannot accurately convey orders to every ordinary soldier, but the Tacet Discord Legion is different; whether attacking or acting, they are like a single person.

Soon, Yangyang was surrounded by the Tacet Discord Legion. Several Havoc Warrior emerged from the legion and pressed closer to Yangyang in the center of the encirclement.

The encirclement closed slowly, but every time Yangyang tried to break through, several Chasm Guardian would release ranged attacks to interfere with her movements. The ranged units did not unleash saturation attacks; it was as if an old man was toying with a child, deliberately playing tricks on her.

Several attempts to break through the encirclement ended in failure, failing to inflict even significant damage on the Tacet Discord Legion, while she herself suffered considerable injuries. A sense of despair began to slowly spread through Yangyang's heart; at this moment, she couldn't think of any way to break the deadlock on her own...

"So... this is the fate of soldiers?" Yangyang said with a bitter smile. She had thought about this day coming, but she never expected that just one oversight would lead her to be imprisoned.

I originally thought that I could quickly get rid of these Tacet Discord by relying on my high mobility as Resonator, but I didn't expect that the Tacet Discord would also cooperate with each other.

These Tacet Discord possessed intelligence far exceeding that of any enemy she had ever encountered before; they were more like a group of well-trained enemy soldiers than mindless Tacet Discord...

Just as Yangyang decided to activate Overclocking and fight the Tacet Discord tide to the death, a familiar voice rang out from the sky.

""Jiu Gang", "Polarized Light", "Black and Statement", "Between the Outside and the Inside"--virtual style ""!!!"

As the purple light fell, several Havoc Warrior who tried to approach her were instantly wiped out by the violent energy, and the blast from the explosion also created a small opening in the outer encirclement.

"Oh my... isn't this that tattletale girl who writes letters?" Lu Guan slowly landed in front of Yangyang, a sly smile on his face. "Long time no see, what happened to you?"

Yangyang's expression was extremely complicated. She felt both the joy of surviving a disaster and the helplessness and anger at seeing the demonic pill.

"Sigh... looking at your savior with that expression isn't the attitude a well-educated young lady from a prestigious family should have," Lu Guan shook his head, deciding not to pressure Yangyang this time, and turned to look at the Tacet Discord tide that had reformed its encirclement.

"Such excellent discipline... is she being manipulated?" Lu Guan frowned. In his memory, only that woman could control or command the Tacet Discord tide...

The inherently evil Fractsidus, I will personally...

"Be careful, they're probably being controlled," Yangyang quickly warned. "They can even coordinate with each other, don't underestimate them!"

"Cooperate? With these low-level Tacet Discord?" Lu Guan laughed. "A bunch of small fry, no matter how well they cooperate, are still small fry."

Having said that, he stopped dawdling. The cups that needed to be filled had already been filled, and now it was time to get down to business.
