Chapter 217: Battle Plan

ms to be interested in card-making. As a fire mage, he's definitely faster at learning than me. Would giving him some guidance on card-making bring us closerLu Cheng put the weight-bearing mechanism d...Lu accepted the necklace and absorbed a large amount of magic energy. It became even more dazzling in his hand, but there was also a lot of corrupted energy mixed in. Lu still needed to cleanse it.

The necklace turned into a card. Lu Cheng glanced at the front of the card and couldn't help but be amazed.

This necklace is called "Tides" and is a card master equipment card.

The skill is very simple, like the tide coming in and going out. It can quickly store and release temporary energy, just like an energy card.

But the difference is.

Wow!

The capacity is really big!

The magic energy contained within the legendary card fragments was heart-palpitating, immense beyond imagination. Lu Cheng never thought that such a small necklace could hold so much tremendous power.

This isn't even the most exaggerated part, recovering energy with energy cards is very slow for mages.

Li Cheng suffered greatly from it, and the energy extraction speed of this card is three times that of an ordinary energy card!

Think about the time before I created the 【Soul-Capturing Sail】. I was still using energy cards back then, and a necklace brimming with so much power would have been too outrageous.

But unfortunately, if the [Imperial Mage's Tower] were still around, it could continuously absorb environmental energy to supply its owner, while [Tidal] does not have such a function.

"Yes, that's it! With this, there's a chance!" Lu Cheng nodded.

Thousands of magic-powered machines are still left in the city. The mages of the country are not capable of cleaning them all up at once.

The two huddled in a relatively intact building, pouring over the city's remaining magical machinery as they devised their final battle strategy.

"Devil sir, can the disciples really be entrusted to you"

Fana secretly glanced at Lu Cheng.

Although everyone in front of me seems to have low skill, after two days of getting along with each other, this person acts decisively and has a very logical way of thinking.

She knew he was doing the right thing, this was the only and last chance, there was hope only if they replaced [The Rising Sun Country].

"Otherwise, there's no other way," Lu Cheng shrugged. Actually, he wasn't confident this time either, he could only make a big deal out of it.

Fana nodded, she could only believe him.

Then when do we attack

On August 12th, Lu Cheng was very sure.

Fana was suddenly taken aback, she seemed to have remembered something

Two months ago, Professor [Terloni] woke up from a nap and suddenly shouted something about landing.

Then she had a bizarre premonition in her dream. At the time, Farah was grinding for pulls in an online game during her divination class and got really scared when it happened. She remembered it vividly. Could it have been a coincidence

"From the sea, it only takes nine days to reach the sunrise country's east coast. Why wait until 11 days later for the attack " Fana asked eagerly, The attack should be as early as possible. Without the support of the mage tower, something could happen in the upper-level duel."

"Because that day, there was mysterious outside help." Lu Cheng answered with his mouth while his hand kept drawing.

Fa Na, hearing this, leaned in slightly.

"Mr. Devil, my fortune-telling teacher made a prediction two months ago, it was exactly August 12th.

"Seven fortune tellers, eight mediums... uh, what did she say" Lu Cheng smiled without looking up.

"The final battlefield of the setting sun, August 12th. The mountains there are pitch black, the sea is invisible, and the islands are shrouded in mist," Fana whispered softly.

There was a clatter as the pen fell to the table.

"What did you say!" Lu Cheng suddenly stood up.

"This is a prophecy, after all." Fana said with certainty.

Lu Cheng's heart was pounding, followed by the ecstasy of surviving a near-death experience!

The Imperial Mage Tower has collapsed, the situation is extremely desperate. The only way out is to replace [Dawn Country], but before Lu Cheng predicted that the success rate of this plan was less than one in a thousand, and if it failed, they would all die.

But this prophecy

In the prophecy, the pitch-black mountain corresponds to Youdu Mountain, and the sea that never sees light is Beiming.

And where are the islands shrouded in clouds and mist

The answer is right there, Cang Hai Island!

How is this possible Her divination class teacher couldn't possibly know about Youdu Mountain, Beiming, and Cang Hai Island!

Even Lu Cheng only knew about Youdu Mountain and Beiming, but not about Canghai Island!

The only explanation is that the fortune teller really saw the scene from August 12th, and this prediction is very likely to be true.

That means, on August 12th, they might really come!

My heart pounded like it was going to burst out of my chest, just as a person gasping for air would.

Let out a long sigh.

Stay calm!

The plan remains unchanged.

"Miss, that's the plan. The Imperial Fleet is going to summon apostles, they won't have the manpower for a fight." Lu Cheng was drawing a map on the side.

This is his memory after he came out of the prison in the Land of Rising Sun.

"Wizard Cards, I entrust you with this! Summon the Wizard Guild at this zenith position, crush the [Holy Pegasus Knights]! Send word to the [Cotton Lan] via owl: once battle commences, cease astral travel and land on the West Coast. Seize the [St. Mary's Wall]!"

He knew this domain card was incredibly powerful, but not fully under control, much like his own black card. However, he believed the girl in front of him could seek assistance and trusted her abilities.

Before she came, she did well. But dealing with Jin Qixing's disciples was just too difficult.

"Mr. Devil, what about the ground The army of the Land of the Rising Sun is not something we can handle." Fana's eyebrows furrowed.

"【Tides】 The stored energy is enough to power all the existing magic-infused mechanical cards in the city for a day and night. With them leading the charge, they are machines and have some resistance to deterioration. They can hold off the fanatics." Lu Cheng drew a large arrow.

"But we can't wait too long, can we" Fana asked.

"When the time comes, there will be a mysterious aid, Miss. Remember this place," Lu Cheng pointed to a location on the map. "It's going to be very chaotic then, and a giant fortress will appear here! When things are in enough turmoil, we and the card masters of the Cotton Lan Number retreat here! Hold our ground! Be sure to lure the Apostles and the Holy Nation to attack!"

"A pass Uh, do you think we can hold it" Fana was startled.

"If you can't hold on, then die." Lu Cheng said in a concise and straightforward manner.

"Didn't he keep it"

"That means the teachings of the kingdom are in retreat. After winning, we can destroy the core of the Rising Sun Nation and make the Bishop lose his support!" Lu Cheng said while looking at the map.

Fana tilted her head and looked at the map. I have to say, Mr. Devil's handwriting was truly terrible, but his drawings were really good.

"Well, but you've drawn so many. How do we know which one is the wonder card supporting the bishop"

Lu Chengsi's thoughts returned to the scene of him leaving prison, and he smiled faintly.

There's a saying that goes, "If any building in the city were to be taller than the cathedral, then God Himself would lose face!"

Also, I'll fix the next chapter in 20 minutes. Damn it, diarrhea, gotta use the restroom to type, my butt hurts, grasseavy resistance at sea.This is a terrifying fact.The extent of the corrupted domain's power is unknown, but from what Lu Cheng gleaned in scraps of information, 【Pandeia】 was dead.
