Chapter 362
byChapter 362: Launching the Attack
“Alright!”
Guli did not take it to heart. With the Map of Mountains and Rivers and the Binding Immortal Rope in hand, she was confident in emptying the Crane King’s treasure vault while even capturing the strong members of the Swift Tribe left behind.
If that was not possible…
She would have to temporarily move a batch of high-grade treasures from the Crane King’s treasure vault instead, because time was tight.
“Since that’s the case, let’s begin implementing the plan now!”
Guli looked at the four vice-captains.
Tai Shi, Zong Shan, and Rog slightly nodded, while Chief Nika reminded with surprise, “Even if we rush to Fengmang planet at full speed, it will still take us a day. After a day, we will likely need to make slight adjustments based on the changes in the Crane King’s territory defenses.”
“A day?”
The over three thousand high-end combatants of the Black Tiger Tribe were stunned.
Could this flying treasure really be that fast?
As far as they knew, the flying treasures made by the Swift Tribe were the fastest among the various tribes.
This was because the Swift Tribe could use their scales infused with the power of the wind laws to create Wind Sails, accelerating the flying treasures.
Even so, the fastest royal pirate ship from the Swift Tribe required almost two years to travel from the blood-colored planet to Fengmang planet.
They had always thought that the plan discussed earlier was merely a rehearsal.
They believed they would adjust it according to the actual conditions of the Crane King’s territory upon arriving at Fengmang planet.
What did it mean to reach Fengmang planet from the blood-colored planet within a day?
Did that mean this flying treasure was hundreds of times faster than the Swift Tribe’s royal pirate ships?
“We should already be at Fengmang planet; we are possibly right above the Crane King’s territory!”
Guli did not know the exact location of the flying treasure, but she had a hunch that Yi Chen had already arrived at Fengmang planet through the teleportation array.
Since they chose the Crane King’s territory as the target, it was highly likely that they had controlled the flying treasure and reached above the Crane King’s territory.
“Already at Fengmang planet?”
Chief Nika could not help but look up at Yi Chen, who was constructing law seals on the throne.
How could they reach Fengmang planet from the blood-colored planet in just over ten minutes?
“Guli is correct; the flying treasure is above the Crane King’s territory. Directly below us, about three thousand kilometers away, is the Crane King’s old nest and palace.”
Yi Chen nodded, confirming Guli’s guess and deduction.
“…”
Chief Nika was left speechless.
Incredible!
In just over ten minutes, they had traveled from the blood-colored planet to Fengmang planet.
He could not understand how Yi Chen accomplished this.
But he understood very well that Yi Chen could not be lying to him.
He did not have the qualification to do so.
“How is this possible?”
“If we reach Fengmang planet this quickly, does that mean the speed of this flying treasure is hundreds of thousands of times faster than the royal pirate ships of the Swift Tribe?”
“If it’s really that fast, can we just rob the Swift Tribe and return to the blood-colored planet in the blink of an eye?”
The over three thousand high-end combatants of the Black Tiger Tribe were skeptical.
If the flying treasure really was that fast, it would be too exaggerated.
It was far beyond their understanding.
As they looked at Yi Chen, their awe deepened further.
If that were true, there was no doubt that Yi Chen, as the master of this flying treasure, must possess strength far beyond their comprehension.
“If there are no objections, let’s begin the operation now!”
Guli decided.
“Yes!”
The four vice-captains quickly responded.
“You all heard the plan from earlier; the top one hundred and fifteen high-level combatants of the Tiger Stripe Stage will now assemble.”
Chief Nika immediately gave orders to his subordinates.
The Tiger Stripe Stage, named Crossing Tribulation Stage by Yi Chen, was also the ninety-level stage established by the Federation Military.
Although the high-end combatants of the Black Tiger Tribe were still somewhat skeptical, none dared to hesitate.
In their hearts, they were somewhat dissatisfied with Chief Nika’s submissive attitude.
Yet Chief Nika represented the entire Nika tribe.
If they questioned or acted against Chief Nika’s orders, it would only make their leader look down on the Black Tiger Tribe even more.
One hundred and fifteen combatants above ninety-five level of the Black Tiger Tribe quickly assembled.
With a thought, the top geniuses used teleport to appear beside them.
“Bai Ruo Xin, you will take control of the flying treasure and proceed as planned!”
Guli looked at Bai Ruo Xin beside her and continued to make arrangements.
Logically, the control of the flying treasure should be hers, as she was the captain of the entire Great Flame Pirates, and being on the flying treasure would help coordinate everything better.
However, Bai Ruo Xin had a special status; she was the leader of the Intelligence Organization and the most trusted high-ranking member by Yi Chen.
Thinking it over, to avoid any conflict, Guli handed control of the flying treasure to Bai Ruo Xin, as she also had experience in operating this flying treasure.
At the same time, Guli instructed Bai Ruo Xin to assemble a few top geniuses from the Intelligence Organization to form a small team dedicated to conveying messages.
There was no doubt that after training with the four armies for many years, Guli had improved her skills in strategy and manipulation.
But this also indicated that she had become increasingly cautious in front of Yi Chen.
This made Yi Chen, who was building law seals, feel a bit sighful.
Back then, Guli constantly expressed her love to him, wanting to mate and have a genius offspring; that recollection was still vivid in his mind.
Now, Guli had become cautious in front of him, even starting to be wary of Bai Ruo Xin, who was closer to him.
This was an inevitable result and cost of being a ruler, so he would not take the initiative to draw closer to Guli or help her regain the feelings they once shared.
But this is why he valued Bai Ruo Xin and the Little Gold Ball so much.
In the entire Great Flame Empire, only Bai Ruo Xin and the Little Gold Ball could truly be unrestrained in front of him without constantly trying to guess his thoughts and intentions.
“Alright!”
Bai Ruo Xin responded straightforwardly.
Guli was actually overthinking.
She and the Intelligence Organization had always been a special presence in both the Political Council and the Military.
No matter which side it was, they cooperated fully.
However, she did not interfere or participate in any internal conflicts of either side.
Everything focused on Yi Chen’s interests.
Since Guli was appointed by Yi Chen as the captain of the Great Flame Pirates, she would follow whatever arrangements he made without considering her personal interests, nor would she feel dissatisfied when Guli ordered her.
“Let’s go!”
Guli teleported to Chief Nika’s side.
Chief Nika led the way, taking Guli to fly out of the flying treasure first.
The high-level Black Tiger Tribe fighters of the Tiger Stripe Stage followed closely, with more than a hundred top geniuses right behind them.
Further back were the three thousand or so mid-level Black Tiger Tribe combatants of the Tiger Stripe Stage.
Bai Ruo Xin stayed behind at the flying treasure with six top geniuses, controlling the flying treasure to follow closely behind the Main Group.
The Great Flame Pirates officially launched an assault on the Crane King’s lair.
A distance of over three thousand kilometers was almost instantaneous for the high-end combatants of the Black Tiger Tribe.
“Enemy attack, enemy attack…”
“The Black Tiger Tribe? Are these the Black Tiger Tribe slaves from the coliseum escaping?”
“What boldness! The Black Tiger Tribe actually dares to come here and cause trouble!”
The guards of the Swift Tribe in the palace quickly sensed the presence of the high-end combatants of the Black Tiger Tribe. While surprised, they remained calm.
To them, the Black Tiger Tribe was nothing but useless.
As they sounded the alarm, they did not retreat but instead charged toward the Great Flame Pirates.
Those Swift Tribe members above level ninety were significantly faster than the Great Flame Pirates.
