Chapter 1555
"Attention!" Dallas abruptly roared, prompting the members of the Divine Strategy Squadron to quickly get into formation. They stood tall with their chests puffed out. "Salute!" he shouted, leading by example as he saluted Nash. Although Nash was to be his future grandson-in-law, Dallas was still his subordinate in the work context. Nash and his team reciprocated the salute.
Dallas then spoke up, "Allow me to introduce you all to the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron, Nash Calcraft!"
Exclamations of surprise rippled through the ranks.
"He's so young?"
"He's handsome!"
"Damn, I can't see his core even with my X-ray vision!"
"Keep it down, will you? He's the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron and you dare use your abilities on him?"
In the meantime, Robin's team had all also landed and assembled. After ordering them to stand by, he jogged over to join the group.
Meanwhile, Dallas, along with a few team leaders, approached Nash. "Let's formulate the battle plan now. The quicker we act, the better."
Euria rolled out a satellite map of Munford on the ground and pointed to the red circles marked on it. "These circles represent the third-rate families in Munford. There are 35 in total, and they're all under the control of the Aoen Sect, which is under Duncan himself. "Each family is guarded by 30 individuals-two great-grandmasters, five grandmasters, and 23 martial artists at the Energy Cultivation Realm."
Nash's eyes narrowed slightly, only now having just learned of Duncan's Aoen Sect and their considerable martial artist force.
Euria gave a quick glance over at the Divine Strategy Squadron troops and then continued with her instructions, "Robin, you'll divide the Dragon Soul Special Forces team into 35 groups. Geoff's team will support 20 of these groups while June's team will support the remaining 15." June frowned slightly. "Why not just assign a Profound Reality Realm fighter?"
"Just follow her orders," Dallas rebuked.
Euria had demonstrated her superior strategic planning abilities while at the Divine Strategy Squadron. With accurate intelligence, her combat plans were foolproof.
Euria explained, "The Aoen Sect has stationed Profound Reality Realm fighters among the second-tier families, and there are 26 such families in Munford."
June hesitantly nodded. "Okay, do we move out now?"
Euria affirmed. "Yes. Use your abilities wisely and try to remain undetected."
"We should remain undercover as long as they don't have anyone as strong as our commander with them," June confidently stated.
Robin frowned. "Given the enemy's formidable strength, how do you propose we remain undetected?"
June then reached out and touched Robin's forehead, causing him to gradually fade to nothing.
"Why did you poke me?" Robin asked, somewhat annoyed.
June laughed. "Look at your hands!"
"My hands... Damn... What... Where are my hands?" Robin's voice echoed, filled with both panic and astonishment.
Even with Nash's Third Eye, he could barely make out a transparent figure.
"June has the power of invisibility. Since evolving into a second-generation Esper, she can use her power to make others invisible. Only those she has rendered invisible can see each other," Euria explained to the team.
Dallas glanced at Nash with a smug
expression, seemingly boasting about the resources and capabilities of the Divine Strategy Squadron. Nash merely curled his lips
dismissively while thinking toelines
himself, 'Why are you so proud? Two of your family's prodigies are with
me.'
"Next, we'll deal with the second-tier families. Each family is guarded by a Profound Reality Realm expert, and the top three families also have an early-stage Mystique Loyalty Realm expert.
"The Divine Strategy Squadron's martial arts team will handle the latter 20 families while Elder Gerbind and five Mystique Loyalty Realm experts will take on the first five families.
"Wait, it should be the Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Elders as well as Elder Cricton who will take on these five families.
"Sixth Elder, you're a Parasite Master. Can you break the One God Bug?" Euria asked with narrowed eyes.
The Sixth Elder's pupils contracted sharply before he responded gravely, "The One God Bug can't be removed. We can only kill the one controlling it and dissipate their influence, which will then free the bug from the soul."
Nash quickly accessed information
about the One God Bug in his mind.
He learned that it was cultivated using blood and spiritual power. It could integrate itself into someone's soul, which then allowed the wielder to manipulate the soul through spiritual power and cause it to explode.
Euria's brows furrowed slightly. "The core members of the first-tier families have all been afflicted by the One God Bug. If we can't find a way to suppress it, many businessmen could die." "Why not just kill the person who implanted them?" Bertram asked.
།
Euria shook her head and sighed. "For the moment, Orlando is only able to confirm that it's someone from the core of Duncan's group, but we don't know exactly who it is. Plus, that group often stays together. They're extremely formidable. Killing that person would be incredibly difficult."
No sooner did she say that than Orlando's voice sounded in her earpiece. "Peter Sontag of Duncan's group is heading to the city hall... He's the one who implanted the bugs!"
