Chapter 278: Underground Labyrinth

urely movements.Even they, if they could get through, wouldn't be able to withstand this barrage of gunfire!"Ah~!"Suddenly, a drastic change occurred!Blood splattered onto Huyan Rong's back, causing t...The rose creaked open, and a blood servant appeared in the doorway.

"Sister, the mist in Fog City has dissipated. They have built war fortresses and the front line is heating up. The Crown has retreated, and our country has shifted from offense to defense." The Blood Clan maid spoke.

The rose nodded.

"Go ahead and leave first."

After the maidservant left, the rose also floated out gracefully.

She wants to find the captain.

The team leader has been coming over to get food these two days. He seems to really like home-cooked meals

However, things are heating up now. The three temples are about to be completed and the front-line situation will soon turn into a stalemate. King Lionheart is expected to return to the province soon.

The leader truly kept his word. The worsening of the cardmaster situation is likely due to their awareness of the Moon Temple and the development of their own plans. They have become surprisingly quiet recently, and the trouble they cause residents is even less than the various taxes imposed under different pretexts.

Even the civilian groups rarely receive commissions for escalation incidents.

Some radical members are still quite dissatisfied, saying that this way they can't hunt mutated creatures anymore, and what about the card packs they were promised

The rose knew that a growing evil was brewing something big.

According to reconnaissance, the Evolved Ones have abandoned the surface. They control all the subterranean water systems of the province and have overlaid a Stage 3 Evolved Zone beneath it.

And the [Source Blood Pool] is also nearly ready, but what exactly does the captain plan to do How can one create a grand blood moon in this chaotic situation

She walked to Lu Cheng's room door and knocked.

In a short while, Lu Cheng opened the door.

Hello, captain.

"Sister Mei, is something the matter" After Rose entered the room, Lu Cheng gently closed the door.

"This is urgent," Rose said. "The Source Blood Pool is ready. It contains over 600 of the purest blood cards, nearly all the power we can command. And the three temples are about to be completed. What are we going to do"

The team leader has always only been responsible for providing and receiving cards, basically not caring about anything else, but now we can't do without him.

Lu Cheng listened.

He did know that, Zhurong's senior brother had asked him this question long ago. If you were truly a Tian Sheng blood clan member, how would you deal with the Lion King

At that time, Lu Cheng was at a loss. Zhuge Liang then gave him an idea. Lu Cheng cleared his throat.

"Rose Sister, where is the most likely place for the evil card master to launch an attack" Lu Cheng asked.

"Down below, while our people have been busy with the source blood pool recently, we have also made some discoveries."

"Then it's settled, they can leave, and we can too. Blood doesn't just flow through vessels, you know." Lu Cheng smiled.

"The sewer!" Rose exclaimed.

"Yes, we just need to crush the deteriorating domain unfolding underground and make the young lion king believe that the Deteriorating Card Masters once visited his temple. Then, let us help defend the underground, and we can take control of the waterworks in return. They are the city's arteries, and of course, they can reach the [Moon Temple]."

The rose thought about it and felt it was feasible. This might also be the only feasible way!

"Leader, you shouldn't expose yourself. We can handle this battle, but we need more siege cards. It won't be easy for the sisters and the Red Moon Guild to defeat the corrupted domain underground." Rose sounded troubled: "And large-scale purchasing of siege cards would raise suspicion. I wonder if I could contact the Wintermoon black market..."

"Hey, sister, don't!" Lu Cheng immediately stopped Rose.

Siege card

Don't go to the black market, is the Eastern fortress assault card not powerful enough

Before the war, Zhuge Liang had Lu Cheng purchase a large amount of gunpowder raw materials. He repeatedly warned Lu Cheng that if the vampires attacked, they must place their orders.

"Sister, I know a black market mercenary who has a mysterious mercenary corps card. He specializes in sieges and his identity is secure. He can cooperate with you to conquer the territory."

Zhuge Liang taught Lu Cheng that if one wants to do something that should not be known by too many people, it is best to create an identity.

If Huaxia Card needs to be used in the future, it will definitely have to be exposed. But in the early stage, it cannot be exposed by ourselves. Then we can hide a dragon-like identity that appears but disappears.

In the future, during the winter month, there will be a lord named Lu Cheng on the bright surface. Secretly, there will also be a powerful mysterious person. This looks very normal.

"Really" Rose King was delighted to hear this. It seemed that the leader had connections after all, despite spending many years in hiding as a Winter Lion.

So far, the team leader has planned everything perfectly, there's no way she could have any doubts.

"Should I have him come meet you You two could talk" Lu Cheng said.

The rose naturally agreed with a full mouth.

In the afternoon, at Chikuyaku Garden, a man in formal attire with a mask was led by vampire maids to an abandoned field in the backyard.

The face after the mask wasn't Lu Cheng either.

I have to say, Dan Xiu's 【Disguise Pill】 is really good!

I'm not very good at social interaction, but I learned some rhetoric from my brother Zhuge. I believe I should be able to get a good price.

"Sir, are you the one introduced by the Captain What should I call you" Rose had been waiting in the field already, while the maidservant stepped aside.

"Your Majesty, Rose Prince. Our organization only uses codenames, you can call me Ursa Major." Lu Cheng bowed.

"Alright, Mr. Ursa Major, time is of the essence. Let's get down to business," Rose nodded. "This time, we plan to launch a subterranean battle within the warzone, aiming to shatter an aggravated domain. We need siege cards for this."

"Alright, I'll follow procedure and give you a live demonstration." Lu Cheng never wasted words.

Took out a [Grenade Bucket] and threw it away.

Boom!

Explosives are always straightforward; the abandoned field immediately blossomed with the force of the blast.

"Not bad." Rose looked at the card's power with approval.

But it's just not bad, that's the power of an ordinary high-star blue card magic, and it has explosive destructive power. Calling it a siege card isn't impossible, but in terms of power, it's really not strong.

She doesn't even need to transform to block this card, but it's still decent.

"Is there anything better"

"Your Highness, don't be so hasty. You are a Gold Card Master, did you feel the energy fluctuations just now" Lu Cheng asked.

"Eh" Rose furrowed her brow.

That's true!

The Crimson Moon Estate is surrounded by traps set by the Blood Clan. Many of them are designed to trigger when they detect bursts of energy, which is the principle behind the "countertrap" that Card Masters often mention.

A trap card was activated in response to the duelist using energy to power up their monster cards.

But there was no reaction at all!

This man caused an explosion of power just now without using any energy.

Lu Cheng naturally knew this. A gunpowder barrel is a consumable card, not a spell card, and not even a scroll-like one. It doesn't require any energy to use; it simply triggers upon contact with the enemy. In the eyes of the enemy, it's essentially no different from a basket of bread – it wouldn't be detected by energy detection cards.

“Your Highness, this is an anti-detection siege card. We've hired our organization's military engineers, a squad of 100 invisible engineering teams, to carry this siege card. In the complex underground city, they can bypass detection and silently blast any obstacles in your way for your little sisters. You will be invincible!” Lu Cheng smiled.

"Do you still have the invisible soldiers" Rose, of course, knew the value of this mercenary. With them, their chances of victory in the field would greatly increase. They could also help quietly lay traps within the Winter Moon's underground irrigation system, playing a crucial role in the final "blood pumping" plan!

"Oh, well..." Lu Cheng sounded a little awkward.

"But what's the matter" Rose saw that Lu Cheng was a little hesitant, and hurriedly asked.

"These cards are still in the experimental stage, this price..."
