CHAPTER 110: CHAPTER 110, WE HAVE A MOLE ON OUR SIDE_1

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH...

Several beams of light targeted Jiang Chen, who easily dodged the attacks while maneuvering his Pegasus through the air.

Jiang Chen laughed. It really worked.

His connection with the Pegasus allowed him to evade attacks, which was paramount. In the air, the enemy’s hit rate dropped significantly. Compared to a dragon, the Pegasus was considerably safer.

"Dragon in the Sky" activated.

"It’s him! That Swordsman from the Dragon Zone Union!"

"Huh, he actually changed his mount! It’s not a Giant Dragon, but a Pegasus."

"This Pegasus is as fast as a dragon but has no offensive power at all. Is this kid crazy?!"

"Attack him together! We must not let him live!"

"Kill!"

Hundreds of beams of light shot towards him, along with Yuan energy bullets streaking through the air. Jiang Chen nimbly dodged and swiftly flew towards them.

WHOOSH WHOOSH WHOOSH...

Wherever the Sword Qi passed, Dragon Knights fell, along with the riders on their dragons’ backs. No one could withstand Jiang Chen’s attack.

His offensive power, amplified a hundredfold and boosted by various stats, meant this was simply not a fight on the same level.

White light flared wherever he passed.

Dozens of Dragon Knights perished.

The Dragon Knights and Angels of the Nordic European Union were so enraged they spat blood.

"Damn it! How can such a formidable person exist?"

"Such terrifying offensive power! And each Sword Aura... we simply can’t defend against it!"

"Did this guy foresee the future or something? He didn’t ride a Giant Dragon today but came on an Abnormal Beast instead, making the Dragon Knights prime targets!"

"What do we do? This person is terrifyingly strong; we can’t kill him at all!"

"Retreat! Retreat immediately!"

"Let’s go!"

Over a hundred figures instantly fled. Unable to withstand Jiang Chen’s attacks, they departed in frustration.

Li Xiaozhen approached on her Giant Dragon.

"We owe you for this one."

"We are an Alliance."

"This was just a probe. What are your thoughts on the upcoming battle?"

Jiang Chen smiled. "What thoughts can I have? We just go on the offensive. It’s the same principle as attacking the Sakura Alliance: you dispatch thirty thousand troops, our side dispatches thirty thousand, and we launch a joint attack on the Nordic European Union."

"Once the city gate is breached, we can annihilate the Nordic European Union."

Li Xiaozhen nodded. She had witnessed Jiang Chen’s terrifying power firsthand—wherever his Sword Qi passed, only death remained. Was this guy really just a Swordsman?

Li Xiaozhen vividly remembered the attack on the Sakura Alliance. In the city, Jiang Chen had slaughtered at least tens of thousands; a single man comparable to an army of one hundred thousand.

Jiang Chen was confident that as long as the city gate fell, he could annihilate everyone in the Nordic European Union.

"Alright, I will pass on your message."

"Good. Let the commander decide. I’ll head back first."

Jiang Chen steered the Pegasus back to his city.

...

When Francis heard the report from his subordinates, his face twisted in anger. "What?! Over a hundred Dragon Knights, plus super long-ranged attackers, and you still couldn’t kill him? Instead, he killed dozens of ours?"

"Is that Jiang Chen a god? How did you even attack him?!"

Francis was so furious he wanted to curse. Over a hundred people had ganged up on one person, yet they were the ones counter-killed! He truly couldn’t fathom how anyone could survive an assault from over a hundred long-ranged attackers. Is the opponent a god?

Bernal, a Divine Envoy of the Nordic European Union, stood up. "Francis, do not be consumed by anger. Rage is unbecoming of a commander."

Francis bowed his head. "Yes, Divine Gods. I just can’t understand how that Jiang Chen can be so strong when he’s merely a Swordsman."

"Don’t underestimate any class."

"Understood."

Francis turned to Fernal, Commander of the Mei Zone’s Union. "Fernal, you remember that treasure you have? It’s time to use it!"

Fernal nodded. "Yes, but we need an opportunity to trap that Swordsman for it to be fully effective."

Francis said, "Good. Give it to me. We’ll use this to confront the Dragon Zone Union head-on. As long as we eliminate Jiang Chen, Black Phoenix, being just an HP Recovery Warrior, is nothing to worry about."

...

「In the Dragon Zone Union conference room.」

Black Phoenix said, "Jiang Chen, the Nordic European Union and the Mei Zone’s Union are preparing to move against you."

Jiang Chen nodded. "They’ve already made their move. But don’t worry, we’re definitely taking first place in this Alliance competition."

"No, this time it’s different."

"What’s the difference?"

"They have a Seal Scroll—a One-time Scroll—and they’re preparing to seal your skills."

It was a One-time Scroll. The Seal Scroll could seal all of a Hero’s skills, turning them all gray. Without skills, one would be like a lamb to the slaughter.

It was a heaven-defying scroll that could strike fear into the hearts of all Heroes.

Jiang Chen asked, puzzled, "How do you know?"

Ruo Li smiled. "Of course, it’s insider information. We have an undercover agent in the enemy camp. Now you get it, right?"

Uh...

Spying? They play that game too? Jiang Chen hadn’t expected espionage to still be in vogue.

However, with Black Phoenix’s reminder, Jiang Chen knew he had to be extra vigilant.

So what if they have a Seal Scroll? Can they even use it?

With his powerful Perception, no movement could escape his notice.

Black Phoenix added, "I know you’re powerful, but what if one of our own makes a move against you?"

"You mean there’s an enemy undercover agent on our side?"

Black Phoenix nodded. "Among a hundred thousand people, there are bound to be one or two moles. Of course, I’m just speculating. If we can place agents, why can’t others?"

"I understand. I’ll pay extra attention."

"I’m just reminding you so you can be prepared. If you get sealed, we’ll face an all-out offensive from both Alliances, with no room for retreat."

Jiang Chen stood by the windowsill.

Ruo Li approached quietly and whispered, "Jiang Chen, I’ll tell you a secret."

"What is it?"

"Actually, I’m the undercover agent."

Jiang Chen shot her a look. "Can you stop kidding around at a time like this? Even if Black Phoenix were the mole, you wouldn’t be, right?"

"Why not?"

"Pretty women are never undercover agents."

TEE-HEE...

Ruo Li laughed. "Junior Brother, you’re so cute! If I were the mole, what would you do to me? Capture me? Torture me with whips and candles...?"

Jiang Chen chuckled. "If you were the mole, those things would have no effect on you. I’d use another method to ’torture’ you."

"What method?"

"Do you want to know?"

"Spill it."

"I’d shove your head into a toilet bowl and make you taste the water."

Ruo Li stood there, stunned and fuming. Damn you! One day, I’ll show you what I’m capable of!

Jiang Chen walked on the street.

A Seal Scroll, huh... The Nordic European Union and the Mei Zone’s Union wouldn’t attack until they had a way to contain him, to seal him before striking.

But who could the mole be? Finding one person among a hundred thousand is harder than scaling the heavens.

Forget it. I’ll deal with it when the time comes.

「Two days later.」

Still, there was no activity from the Nordic European Union or the Mei Zone’s Union.

Bored, Jiang Chen strolled down the street.

"Jiang Chen."

Jiang Chen turned to see a man rushing towards him. He recognized him as Gao Hong, another Dragon Knight.
