Chapter 415: Chapter 415: Attack and Mimetic Shapeshifting
The night was an excellent opportunity to weaken the opposition, as the strength of all Undead Creatures increased in the dark.
Although since their arrival in this place, they had lost the blessings of the Divine Statue and some special buildings in the Territory, they could not lose the blessing of the night.
The night belonged to the Undead Creatures, a fact that Fang Jie did not fabricate.
The other Undead Creatures knew as well, and when they saw a large group of Undead in the sky heading towards the enemy camp, they acted as well. Unlike what Fang Jie thought, the Undead did not give their all.
Even those who had to act on their own were cautious and did not use their full strength. Occasionally, they slacked off and sometimes even retreated to ensure their own safety.
Fang Jie did not mind these actions, as it was only the initial phase, and everyone was conserving their strength.
Even the natives were somewhat unclear about the situation. Otherwise, more formidable forces would have appeared here. With the night raid by the Undead, even with preparations, the camp quickly descended into chaos.
The discrepancy in strength and their numbers made it challenging to maintain rationality in the darkness.
A single frantic soldier could incite madness among many others around him. Once this frenzy formed a group, other rational people had to join in as well.
At this point, anyone who remained rational would be considered an outsider and face exclusion and even attacks from others.
Meanwhile, a group of individuals quietly arrived at the top of Jade Slope.
"We agreed that you must provide a full payment; otherwise, we won’t help you."
"I’m trustworthy. I need that person alive; I don’t want a dead one."
"Don’t worry, we’ve cooperated before. We’ll make sure it’s done beautifully. But tell me, why are you targeting that powerful one up there?"
"Hmph, he may be strong, but he himself is weak; he’s just a human of Silver level."
"A human, Silver level? Oh, he’s a Lord then."
Someone already figured out what was intended, but since the money was received, the task needed to be done. Reputation was crucial to them, even for the Undead.
Once they lost credibility, it would be difficult to get tasks in the future, complicating any personal advancement.
For the Undead, increasing strength was even more challenging, and it consumed more resources.
"Don’t worry. Don’t forget that tonight’s attack will make that person deploy all their troops. How many could be left by his side? We have a whole eighteen people here."
Eighteen, and all of them were of Gold level.
Moreover, they were not just ordinary Gold level; they were all professional assassins.
They might not be great in direct combat, but stealth attacks were their specialty.
It didn’t take long for the group to arrive at the top of Jade Slope, near the battlefield, where there was a large tent. With a quick glance over the open space in front, they spotted their target.
"That’s the person. He’s still remotely commanding the troops."
"Let’s do it, don’t give him a chance." They didn’t consider whether capturing Fang Jie would cause issues at the front lines. Those people weren’t their own; if they died, it made no difference to them.
Even if their actions led to a failed campaign, it wouldn’t matter.
After all, the outcome of the battle wasn’t greatly concerning to them; it depended on the final results from the Gods. Their goal was to use this opportunity to gain more benefits, that’s all.
Once they reached the position, the person at the front made a hand signal, and everyone surged out.
Shadows swiftly appeared in front of "Fang Jie," and those charged with protecting him faced their swift assault. "What? The protection is so weak; he’s quite bold."
After eliminating the protective Undead around him, they discovered these only reached the Silver level, like the White Bone Griffin. There were also some Bronze level Skeleton Generals that they barely bothered to kill.
However, at that moment, Apas’s expression changed: "Damn, it’s a trap."
Their attacks passed right through Fang Jie’s body. They had only intended to knock him unconscious and seal him away, something that would never cause their attacks to pass through.
Forget a Silver level Mage; even weaker ones wouldn’t suffer this.
In the moment of the attack, Apas knew that their target was not there at all, but just an Illusion.
At this time, Fang Jie was watching the situation from afar through a Death Crow. He did not want to expose his position, knowing the attackers might have special methods.
Silent threads appeared all around, completely enclosing the area. This area instantly became a trap.
When these people first arrived, Fang Jie had already spotted them. Remember, many Gold level Undead Creatures, concealing their presence, lay hidden underground here.
These people, aiming to remain unnoticed, had not delved deep enough during their reconnaissance and had failed to detect these underground Undead.
But their appearance was sensed by the underground Undead, and Fang Jie had known of their presence from the outset.
To deal with them, Fang Jie directly used a Mimetic Shapeshifting magic he had learned earlier, a Silver-tier Dark Magic, essentially creating a highly realistic Illusion.
Even some investigative methods struggled to distinguish it from reality.
Moreover, this Illusion could remain active far from him without him dispelling it. Fang Jie used this Illusion to attract those people, making them think it was him.
How could those attackers anticipate that someone would use a fake replacement during a major battle?
Though he was already hidden in the rear, he still employed such a tactic, which seemed superfluous.
But this thinking led them directly into the trap. "Cursed humans, truly cunning. That human must be nearby; we must find him."
"The task failed; you must give us the payment, and we aren’t staying here to die with you."
Apas immediately said, "Continue with the plan. If successful, the payment will be doubled."
