Nameless King

Chapter 245 An Organized Attack



Wain walked into the Forest of Frozen Dreams with Gisle. They appeared in the forest, and Gisle was mesmerized by the beauty of the place. The monsters stared at him warily, but Wain let them know that Gisle was not the enemy.

"As I told you earlier, I grow many useful resources here, and I and the creatures that live here receive many bonuses. When you have free time, you should grab some Void." Wain said.

"Yeah, it's definitely worth it. I didn't pass the test for anything. So why did you bring me here?"

"Several thousand monsters live in my territory, but there are five special creatures among them. I'd say they're kind of like members of my team in the World of Darkness. One of them is Construct."

"This is unexpected, but it's a good opportunity to learn more about the enemies in the military base and plan an operation."

"Sure, but first, we need to get the others together." Wain said and closed his eyes.

A map appeared before him, and he found Frigus and Elegan on it. He didn't know where Reto was, but Wain was sure that Elf was at the stone wine barrel. It was actually his favorite place.

'Hmm, what is that golden dot in the shape of a lion? Is that where the Luar is?' Wain wondered, looking at the dot not far from them.

"Okay, let's go." Wain nodded and headed deep into the woods. Gisle followed him.

A few minutes later, they came to a stone wine barrel, and to their surprise, Luar and Reto were there.

They were holding on to each other's shoulders, talking, and constantly drinking wine. Several dozen monsters were sleeping around them who couldn't stand such strong alcohol and quickly fell asleep.

"Reto! Damn, it looks like you're cursed since everyone who associates with you turns into alcoholics!" Wain said loudly.

"Oh, Wain!" Luar said cheerfully, taking a sip of wine.

"Long time no see." Reto continued.

"Is that the Dark Elf?" Gisle asked.

"Yes, that's the one, okay, two are in place. All that's left is to round up the others."

...

A few minutes later, Wain, Gisle, Luar, Reto, Frigus, Elegan, Edena, and Lui Bu were sitting at the same table.

Lui Bu had nothing to do with the military base operation, but he could consult with Edena about Construct's equipment.

"Edena, we have a problem. Construct has appeared in my world with Gisle. They have occupied an important point for us and have fully equipped it since we have noticed many robots. Do you have any advice for us?"

"Yes, I would like to go with you if possible. Lui Bu and I have already made some progress. Also, Elegan is helping us a lot, but the equipment wouldn't hurt."

"Hmm... I don't mind, but do you think they brought their alchemical equipment with them?"

"It doesn't matter. Lui Bu and I are still just learning, and simple furnaces, burners, flasks, and so on will suffice. Even if Construct doesn't have it at their base, I can create it from the materials at hand. However, I'm sure they've already set up a lab." Edena said confidently.

"Why do you think so?"

"Constructs act consistently and measured, and the same goes for me. They definitely cleared the area of all hostile creatures first, then removed everything unnecessary and brought the place into a suitable condition for building a base. Some time after that, the Constructs will explore the area. They need an alchemical lab and the proper equipment to test the samples."

"Huh, that's great. Then in one move, we solve two problems. Your race's alchemical equipment will surely advance your progress. Right?"

"Yes, it certainly does. Can I ask you something?"

"What is it?"

"Who is it?" Edena pointed her finger at Luar.

Wain wanted to answer, but Reto did it instead, "That's my new friend!"

"I agree! Wain, I didn't know your Void had such good conversationalists!" Luar exclaimed.

Wain slapped his palm on his forehead and muttered, "What idiots..."

"I don't understand why you like wine so much? I've tasted it, and I can't say I'm as thrilled as you are." Frigus joined in the conversation.

"That's because the wine is frozen in your hands! Who drinks frozen wine anyway?!"

"What? But it's not my fault!"

"HAHAHAHA, you've got some pretty funny stuff going on here." Gisle laughed out loud.

"All right, that's enough fun. Gisle and I will be back here in a little while, and you should be ready. Lui Bu, this operation could be dangerous, so you stay here. There's no point in you taking any chances."

"Of course, I have many things to do. The resources that are growing here have great potential. If we get the Construct's equipment, we can create something amazing." Lui Bu calmly replied.

"Good, then let's go back. Wait for us." Wain said, and he and Gisle disappeared into the space passage.

...

A few hours later, it was deep into the night, Wain and Gisle decided that they would begin the operation at this time.

No one but them was to know about it, they were not yet ready to tell about the World of Darkness and other races to people. It was a responsible and important step for which time was needed.

Wain, along with Gisle, met in a quiet and inconspicuous place and made their way through the city's narrow alleys toward the military base.

Everyone was now asleep and resting. Only a few squads were patrolling the area in case of a sudden monster attack.

"Wain, have you ever fought Construct before?"

"No, only with Elves, one Demon, Ashen, and Inerian. I'm sure the Construct will be powerful. They are one of the Pillars and are the most technologically advanced race of all."

"Got it. That girl, Edena, she's also a Construct. Is she okay with us killing her kin?"

"That's a stupid question. Humans kill people every day, even in an apocalypse. Do you really think the other races are any different from us in this regard? Furthermore, Edena and Lui Bu have hard fates. I don't know everything, but they certainly won't get in our way if we have a conflict with any of their races."

Gisle nodded.

...

When Wain and Gisle were fairly close to the military base, they went into the spatial rift and Wain's Void.

Luar, Reto, Frigus, Elegan, and Edena were already waiting for them there. Luar decided to stay in the forest because he wanted to talk to Reto more. He was interested in learning more about the other races.

"Edena, do Constructs have any weaknesses?"

"Hmm, I can't say Constructs have any critical vulnerabilities, but I would advise you to take a closer look at their modules. It's best to deal with those with a round module first. Without support, they will be hard to fight. Those with a square module would be the last ones I would advise you to combat. Their defense is high, and their speed is low."

"Good, then go ahead. We will move stealthily and try not to create unnecessary destruction. The military base should have the equipment and gear we all need."

The group members nodded, and Wain entered the spatial rift. They were in a dark alley not far from the military base a minute later.

"They've protected this place with an energy barrier. You can penetrate it by force, but if you give me some time, I can silently disable it." Edena said.

"Okay, then that's what we'll do. I've got your back." Wain said and headed toward the barrier with Edena.

The girl immediately knew where the power unit was because this barrier was a simple type.

Edena and Wain stealthily approached it, and she got to work. The others waited in the distance. As soon as the barrier fell, they would attack Constructs immediately.

At this point, there were several dozen robots and Constructs on the main base. They, unlike humans, did not care when to sleep, they could do it at any time of the day.

Moreover, Constructs could stay awake for several days. In this respect, they were much better than humans.

"I'm going to remove the barrier now." Edena said.

Wain nodded and made a sign. Simultaneously, the group moved forward, and Edena disengaged the barrier.

Edena was the weakest link, so someone had to protect her. That role fell to Elegan, who replaced Wain after disabling the barrier.

Wain and the others attacked the robots and Constructs. The strangers were shocked and didn't have time to react to this attack.

Frigus used his skill and cut several robots in two in one move. Luar acted together with Reto. They attacked four Constructs that had triangular modules.

The triangular modules meant that these Constructs were the attacking type. They should have been the main threat, but Reto and Luar far outnumbered them in strength. Reto tricked them with illusions, and Luar ripped them to shreds with golden claws.

Wain and Gisle acted separately from each other. Their weapons went through the robots' sturdy armor like a red-hot knife through butter.

"We are under attack! Call for reinforcements! Restore the barrier!" Shouted a tall man standing in the distance.

Whoooosh.

Suddenly Wain appeared in front of him and swung his platinum sword diagonally. The man's head flew aside like a ball, and his body collapsed to the ground. Wain swung his hand, knocking away the clinging blood.

In just a minute, they had completely cleared the outside of the military base.

The most interesting part was the underground, but the Constructs had already found out they were under attack and weren't going to wait for them to come and kill them.

Several Constructs came out of the passageway. Their modules were of all types, but the ones with the circle stood behind.

"Who are you? Dark Elves? Monsters? Who are you?" The girl with the triangular module looked at Luar, Gisle, and Wain. She couldn't tell their race, and that alarmed her.

She had long, lush, purple hair slicked back and amber eyes. In her left hand was a massive mechanical blade, and on her feet were bulky boots.

"Huh, do dead ones need to know that? You have invaded our territory, so you must be prepared to die!" Wain exclaimed.

The girl frowned and the mechanism on her boots activated. She lunged toward Wain and turned into a purple flash. Her mates attacked Wain's group in the same way.

Whooooooosh.

The girl appeared in front of Wain and swung her sword sharply. Wain reacted instantly.

He took a step back and blocked the attack with a smooth sword movement. However, the next moment his eyes went wide with shock.

The mechanism at the sword's hilt glowed brightly, and an energy charge flew toward Wain. He stepped aside, and the girl kicked with a turn.

Wain blocked this attack with his arm, but then the girl's eyes flashed, and there was a loud click. An engine on her boots activated, like a rocket, and greatly increased the power of her kick.

Also, she stomped her foot on the ground with force and her second boot glowed brightly. She created additional impulse and channeled it into her kick.

Wain did not expect that she could increase the power of her kick so significantly and was unable to keep his balance. The girl's kick threw him aside, but he quickly regrouped and got to his feet.

Then Wain felt what it meant to fight a technologically advanced enemy. Even normal equipment had so much functionality.

"Huh, not bad, but are these toys all you've got?"

"Of course not. That's just the beginning." The girl said coldly, and suddenly her sword turned into a bow.

"Oh, that actually looks cool."

The girl's eyes sparkled, and a plasma arrow appeared in her hands. She aimed and was ready to fire, but suddenly her body trembled.

"Too bad a pile of scrap metal can't be called true power." Wain uttered, and a white beam flew out of his finger.
