Chapter 1265 - 1265 Wait!



1265 Wait!

Three days passed quickly. Without any ruckus, the Mystic Heaven Lightning Sword Array was completed. The time it took was shorter than expected.

Pittman and the other rune masters were flabbergasted, finding the situation unbelievable.

They had the honor of partaking in the construction of the fifth-rank grandmaster level array, and experienced how hard it was firsthand. However, the whole process was extremely smooth.

So smooth in fact, that the job was completed before they knew it.

The ten rune masters started to view Wang Teng in a different light. Not many rune grandmasters had such a level of mastery.

Most importantly, he was young.

Wang Teng took the rune masters back to the battlecraft. Huo Qiya and the others were already waiting for him and quickly approached to greet him.

“Commander, how did it go?” Feng Gang asked, feeling agitated.

The others looked at their leader with anticipation.

“It’s done. All we have to do is to wait for the lightning to come!” Wang Teng stared at the sky and smiled.

Everyone felt elated and astounded at the same time.

They succeeded!

The Mystic Heaven Lightning Sword Array was an extremely difficult fifth-rank endeavor, with a high failure rate, which had them worrying for the past few days.

They only had one chance. If they failed, they would need to fight the dark apparitions face on.

They couldn’t wait another three months.

If that happened, the number of casualties would go beyond their expectations.

Fortunately, Wang Teng succeeded.

He gained more of their favor this time.

“That’s great. We can give the dark apparitions a huge surprise with this array.” Wei Tong sniggered.

“Prepare yourselves. The lightning will come at any moment,” Wang Teng said.

“Don’t worry. Our martial warriors are always ready,” Deputy Jira replied.

“Don’t be so tense. The real battle hasn’t started,” Wang Teng said with a smile.

“Yes!” everyone responded with smiles.

The atmosphere became more relaxed. Knowing the array was there gave them much confidence.

“How’s Red Scorpion and Raging Bear?” Wang Teng asked.

“They launched their second wave of attacks over the past few days and destroyed more than 30,000 dark apparitions. The results are striking,” Huo Qiya said with shining eyes.

“Looks like they can’t wait anymore.” Wang Teng smiled.

“Three forces were dispatched together, so competition is inevitable.” Marly snorted.

“They paid a great price too, though. Many of their elite martial warriors were sacrificed. We have better odds of winning,” Jira added.

Wang Teng nodded. A sharp glint appeared in his eyes.

It was up to heaven to decide if they could win the battle beautifully.

Meanwhile—General Cameron received news of the three troops. He knew their progress clearly.

“I expected Red Scorpion and Raging Bear to act. As for Tiger Strike…” General Cameron shook his head. “They haven’t moved in three days. What are they waiting for?”

The General would not meddle in the three forces battle plans. Hence, he wouldn’t ask too much.

He only wanted results.

But, he was starting to become curious about Wang Teng’s plans. Why did he stay put?

Is he afraid?

Or does he have other plans?

“Continue watching them,” General Cameron ordered.

The latter wasn’t the only one. The few generals with real power, including General Ukeri, General Qi Yuanju, and General Kimberly, all of them were keeping a close eye on their battles.

They were being especially attentive towards the Tiger Strike Force. The new commander, Wang Teng, had great potential. He caught their attention during the fight for commander, so they naturally placed more emphasis on his first mission.

They were shocked and puzzled upon learning that the guy had yet to make a move.

This made them even more curious and interested.

Another day passed.

Wang Teng and his subordinates stood on top of their battlecraft, which was parked on the outskirts of the 13th frontline. They observed the skies of the Angoro Grand Canyon.

Everything was normal. There were no changes.

Lightning had yet to appear.

The five deputy regimental commanders looked at the sky with a frown.

However, they weren’t the most nervous of the group. It was Peggy. She was the one who came up with the plan. She would no longer have the face to remain in the Tiger Strike Force if a mistake were to occur.

Wang Teng placed a hand on Peggy’s shoulder and said calmly, “Don’t panic. The lightning’s arrival can fluctuate; three months is just an estimate. It’s normal to have a difference of a few days.”

“Yes.” Peggy took a deep breath and nodded.

“Either way, let’s get ready to battle and keep our defenses strong. We’ve been here for a few days; I believe the dark apparitions already know we’re here. They’re probably waiting for us to let our guard down,” Wang Teng added.

Huo Qiya and the others were stunned. All their attention was on the array, so they forgot about this matter altogether.

This was the best time for the dark apparitions to attack.

Everyone waited for lightning to arrive but the sky remained calm. They could only head back, disappointed.

On the fifth day—still no signs of lightning. The atmosphere inside the battlecraft gradually became depressing. Huo Qiya and the others grew restless.

News came from Red Scorpion and Raging Bear.

Victory!

That same morning, the two forces broke through the dark apparition ranks and reclaimed the 9th and the 17th frontlines.

The Red Scorpion Force killed more than 80,000 dark apparitions, including 7 low-tier devil emperors. They also managed to heavily injure a mid-tier devil emperor under the combined effort of their commander and the deputies, forcing the creature to beat a retreat.

The Raging Bear Force achieved better results. They killed more than 90,000 dark apparitions, including 8 low-tier devil emperors, and inflicted heavy injuries on a mid-tier devil emperor.

Everyone was invigorated when they heard the news.

General Cameron was also overjoyed. He gave much praise to the commanders of both forces.

After excitement died down, he shifted his gaze to the Tiger Strike Force again.

The third force had not moved, not even for a single battle. It was hardly justifiable.

Everyone wondered if Wang Teng was afraid, not daring to attack.

All kinds of voices rose in an instant.

Many generals with real power sent messages to ask about the Tiger Strike’s situation.

Huo Qiya and the others were stressed. They had never been met with such a case, since the Tiger Strike Force was formed. They didn’t know what to do.

“Commander, I’ve sent our plan to headquarters,” Deputy Jira walked over and reported.

“Okay.” Wang Teng nodded.

“Commander, why don’t we force our way in?” Wei Tong asked after some deliberation.

The others also looked over at their leader. Most of them wanted to barge their way in. Only Huo Qiya and Jira hesitated.

They didn’t want to give up after waiting for so many days.
