The game has become a real alternate world-Chapter 754 - 436: Deterrence

The sculpture is of a little girl about ten centimeters tall, with the proportions of a normal girl.

Behind her are wings as transparent as a dragonfly's, split into four extending up and down.

You can even clearly see the beautiful patterns on the wings through the light.

The miniature girl wears vivid green clothes with a realistic texture, entwined with vines on the shoulders, where small flowers bloom.

The sculpted girl displays a radiant, innocent smile.

Even her eyes seem to be gleaming.

The little girl's body, simple and plain clothes, natural elements, bare white feet, transparent wings.

Just like the little fairy in the story.

The only element indicating it's a sculpture is on the pedestal below.

The irregular round pedestal seems like a block of earth dug from the ground, with sand, soil, and growing grass and plants on it.

"Yes, that's it."

Kana examined the sculpture carefully for a moment, then smiled and nodded.

Then he put it back into his space equipment.

Seeing this, Red Serpent's expression showed obvious disappointment.

She had wanted to see what different insights Kana would have on this sculpture, but it was clearly not possible now.

However, she was not annoyed, and she nodded with a smile.

"No time to delay, let's decide the details of the upcoming battle first," Kana said.

Then he followed Red Serpent towards the Mage Tower.

...

Meanwhile, as the battle plans were being formulated here...

The rats besieging Red Serpent City had already relayed the latest news back.

"Enemy of God, he is at least a Legendary, a Legendary!"

"We can't resist, we will fail, should we hide, hide?"

In the rats' tattered camp.

The clan leaders, priests, prophets, and officers of their tribe were all gathered here having a discussion.

More than half a year had already passed.

Information on Kana had long spread among the rat hordes, even including information about the Night Watchers.

Their grand strategic actions had achieved decent results at the start, but after the initial phase, their strategies faced obstructions from the Night Watcher's side.

Support from the Night Watchers was not limited to the Blue Sky Harbor area.

That was just a fast route.

A lot of Night Watcher supplies and personnel moved along the regular sea routes, taking a large detour to the other side.

It's not that the Night Watchers didn't want to sail quickly from Blue Sky Harbor to Half Moon Bay.

But in between, at least three sea ports occupied by the rats had to be crossed.

And the rats weren't stupid. After determining the failure to seize Blue Sky Harbor at the southwest corner of the continent,

a large number of rat vessels sailed on the sea, blocking any ships wanting to pass between the two sides.

One must admit, the Night Watchers didn't actually have many warships, nor could they perfectly leverage their advantages.

So in naval battles, the Night Watchers, though not weak, couldn't hold the absolute advantage they did on land, winning with quality over quantity.

The large lands and cities around Half Moon Bay hadn't been captured by the rats, but the rats held them tightly, blocking any of their land escape routes.

This actually meant success in the grand strategy direction for the rats.

The only failure was Blue Sky Harbor.

And the failure there was expanding, forcing the rats to allocate large forces to construct defenses and barely block the United Army.

This chain reaction led to other battlefields having to abandon their former strategies, accelerating the pace of battles to quickly achieve their previously planned objectives.

This was all brought about by the Night Watchers.

Let alone the promotion coming from the Four Gods and their followers on this aspect.

They were eager for the information on the Night Watchers and Kana to spread as far as possible, ideally letting all the Chaos Faction know.

Then target them fiercely.

Best to the point where they didn't have to personally intervene.

"Enemy of God, we cannot fight them head-on, the rats will be wiped out, the tribe will decline!" said the clan's officer, squeaking at the side.

The prophet and priest next to him clearly disagreed, shouting just as loudly, "This is the will of the evil mice! We must take this city, kill those snakes, kill those snakes!"

"That's right, yes, yes, we can't be cowardly, we can't run." If his hands weren't shaking while saying this.

But for the rats, this was quite normal, cowardice was in their nature.

Just as they were arguing with no definitive idea coming up...

A rat in a black robe stealthily appeared in the camp.

"Ahhhhh!" The appearance startled one of the rats.

The clan leader also jumped down from his spot, yelling curses, "Get out you Shadow Blade Clan's mangy tail! You're not allowed to sneak into our tent!"

Yet the Shadow Blade Clan rat seemed disinterested, swinging the poison blade coiled on its tail.

"I've brought battlefield intelligence, including the Enemy of God, whom you all wish to know about."

These words quieted the rats for a moment.

Then they allowed him to start narrating.

As the information was revealed, the expressions on these rats became increasingly grim, some even showing horror.

When the report was finished, the Shadow Blade Clan rat promptly vanished, sneaking away.

"We'll run, escape, even if punished by the evil mice. We'll beg for forgiveness and return with more and stronger clan members," the clan leader said without hesitation.

Even the two rats who had just opposed this idea, all agreed with this strategy without exception.

Because the information they just received detailed what Kana and his group had done along the way.

Which was just from a few days ago.

Such as the death of the Minotaur Demon and the sacrifice of many rats, including the Green Land Kingdom beginning a counterattack to clear the surrounding scouting rat tribes. 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Moreover, they had already succeeded.

What truly intimidated them was how Kana and his group wiped out the elite among the rats.

Troops that had only been trained recently.

Discarding cowardice, leaving only killing desire—mad rats.

For the rats, such troops were too exaggerated, and many clans sent large numbers of their rats for training, hoping to obtain more forces of mad rats.

Yet their clan's mad rat troops sent for training had not returned.

If even the mad rats were defeated by Kana, they certainly couldn't match up now.

The rats wildly found reasons for their cowardice.

The more they justified it, the more rational retreat seemed, and even the more they felt their own wisdom.

Thus they easily abandoned the effort spent with many clan members' lives and resources, about to capture Red Serpent City.

Preparing for retreat, and not even sending their retreat message across the river to the other side, to the tribe besieging Blue Snake City.

Quite in line with the stereotype of rats.
