Chapter 493: Chapter 493: An Unexpected Troop Type

The matter of the War Balance was immediately reported to Muse’s ears.

"This war is indeed hard to fight," Muse knew, but he still could not let others know. Otherwise, the chance of winning this war would be even smaller.

If he were at an advantage, revealing it would increase his advantage.

Some who knew about the existence of the War Balance were already feeling somewhat uneasy.

At this time, Muse could only act confidently, to reassure everyone else.

"Don’t worry, after all, we’re just on defense. Just do our jobs according to the rehearsal plan. As long as we can delay, it won’t be long before the other side collapses first."

"Right, their logistics can’t keep up, unless they target those cities."

In fact, they were even more hopeful that the other side would target those cities.

As long as they lost the support of the people, controlling Kapala Island would be much more difficult for them. And with the chaos among the civilians in the rear, various resistance forces would emerge.

With these, their logistics would be even more likely to have problems.

This is why the larger the force, the harder it is to win from an external attack, because of these reasons.

"Report, the enemy’s battle formation has changed."

Hearing this, Muse didn’t continue talking to others. He immediately ordered: "Bring it up."

The next moment, a giant crystal panel lit up in front of him, displaying all sorts of images from the front lines. Moreover, the panel was divided into many sections, each able to display images from different areas.

Everyone’s attention gathered on the screen, and no one spoke anymore.

"Zoom in on that, let me see over there," Muse suddenly commanded.

The central screen now showed the image from the smaller screen. In the display, something strange on the other side was transforming. Indeed, it was something resembling a wooden framework, unfolding bit by bit.

"It’s a siege weapon, and it’s produced by a Functional Building, so it should be mechanical."

Everyone was from the Human Faction, and they had collected a lot of information about the Human Faction.

Even before owning a Territory, they had to gather such data, let alone now that they had acquired a Territory. And to prevent the enemy from capturing their Territories, they destroyed all the Territories along the retreat route.

Although they didn’t target the cities or forcibly evacuate the people, those Territories had indeed become ruins.

If the enemy occupied them, as long as they had resources, it would be like driving a wedge in this side, continuously generating troops. For this reason, they had to painfully give them all up.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the wooden framework finally unfolded.

"It turns out it’s a catapult. Such a small catapult can’t be very powerful; it must be of low quality."

As he said that, suddenly a catapult began to operate. A brownish glow gathered behind it, and then the catapult lightly flicked, sending the orb flying far away, directly demolishing a distant Defense Tower.

The orb exploded, countless fragments flying in all directions, injuring many soldiers.

Immediately after, a barrage of orbs came flying from the other side, forming a large wall of fire.

"It’s a Gold-level catapult, the runes are crucial. Damn it, they actually have this kind of attack mode." The enemy’s attack range was farther than theirs, and this type of attack was very troublesome.

"It seems the numbers aren’t many, otherwise they wouldn’t just attack one spot."

Muse said gravely, "The number is small, but they can keep producing more. We can’t do that on our side, we must uproot them. Otherwise, they will be able to create a breach from one point and continuously expand their advantage."

"And even if they can’t, if we remain indifferent, it will also cause a blow to our morale."

"So what do we do?" Someone immediately asked below.

Muse felt tremendous pressure. How could they not know? They just wanted him to give the order. If the order came from him, the credit would be his, but so would the losses and punishments.

"Use the air force, have the Griffin Knights forcefully break through and cause destruction."

He knew that the enemy must have a lot of traps waiting, but this was the only way. Whether friend or foe, both sides understood this.

The air force was a great threat to the enemy. If they could use what they must attack as bait to set traps and severely damage the air force, the enemy would not hesitate to do so, and the same would go for them.

The others breathed a sigh of relief; after all, the responsibility for the air force’s heavy losses would not fall on them.

Before long, Griffin Knights took flight, rushing toward them rapidly. Seeing those overwhelming shadows approaching, Hillciss was not worried at all.

"Finally cleared out, just like in our plans. Next, let them fight us properly. These catapults are not really meant to be destroyed by them."

As soon as he finished speaking, a large number of black dots also took to the sky from their own rear.

They were also Griffin Knights, and even their appearance was quite similar. Only a slight difference allowed each side to distinguish friend from foe.

These Griffin Knights, looking like long-lost brothers, met in the sky.

The Griffin Knights on the ground were stunned for a moment, puzzled, as the enemy was not supposed to have air forces. But there was no time for them to think carefully, as the air forces of both sides collided immediately.

Because the adversary’s angle of attack was targeting the catapults, their adjustment was poor, giving the adversary the upper hand.

Therefore, at the outset of the battle, their losses far exceeded those of the enemy.

"It’s Griffin Knights, how can this be, how can they have Griffin Knights?" Muse cried out in disbelief, and others also widened their eyes, never expecting to witness such a scene.

Weren’t they lacking air forces? Weren’t they always holding air superiority?

How did it change this fast? If the adversary also possessed air forces, then everything would be different.

Meanwhile, inside the palace, the War Balance tipped again towards the hostile side. Seeing this, everyone’s complexions began to turn sour.

"Damn Muse, what on earth is he doing, why has he let the enemy’s advantage increase again?"

"Don’t just stand there spouting nonsense. If you’re so able, why don’t you go ahead?" Everyone was holding their anger, ready to explode at any moment, and the atmosphere in the entire palace quickly heated up.
