YM778.TV Chapter 329 The Emperor is moving.
“Why do I feel like the Dynast is taking things too lightly?”
Another Deputy General muttered.
“Because he is an Idiot, he doesn’t understand how serious this situation is.”
“He might be an Idiot, but what about his Ministers? Are they Idiots as well!?”
“Well, as long as the Dynast doesn’t agree, the Ministers can’t do anything.”
“But 10 Beginner Stage Spies!?
That’s all the help they could offer!?
How do they expect us to get any result with a force like this? Do they think we don’t have Beginner Stage Spies under us? Are they trying to mock us?”
“There is no use discussing this right now.”
The room turned silent when Ember spoke and everyone looked at her face with solemn looks on their faces. Seeing that she had managed to gain their attention, Ember continued.
“The Dynast has made it clear that he won’t provide us with any help, so don’t count on their help. If you have any ideas on how to tackle this situation with our own strength, I am all ears.”
“I do have an Idea but I am not sure if it will work or not.”
Deputy General Lawrence spoke.
Ember turned her head towards him and nodded,
The Deputy General nodded back and explained his plan.
“Our biggest problem is lack of information.
Our spies are unable to sneak inside the Enemy Kingdom due to their tight security and it is becoming quite a big hurdle for our future plans.
Therefore, I would like to weaken this ‘tight security’ they have.”
“How do you plan on doing it?” A Deputy General questioned.
Then, a cold look appeared on Laurence’s face and he answered,
“War.
We will start a War.
However, the main motive of this war won’t be to win over the Highcrane Fort, rather, it would be to send some of our spies into the Solid Earth Kingdom.”
“Ahhh… Since they are fighting a War, their Security System would be weaker and our spies would be able to enter the Kingdom…
Is that what you are betting on?”
Another Deputy General questioned.
“Yes.”
Laurence nodded and the Deputy General frowned.
“You are going to sacrifice thousands of soldiers just so you could plant some spies inside the Solid Earth Kingdom?”
Laurence, however, did not back down and answered,
“If we don’t get the information we need soon, a lot more than a thousand soldiers would lose their lives.
It is a neccesarry sacrifise.”
Lawrence didn’t deny it.
He was ready to sacrifice a few to save many.
“…”
“…”
Silence echoed inside the room, however soon, one Deputy General agreed,
“I agree with this plan.
This is a necessary sacrifice”
And just after he nodded, the other Deputy General nodded as well.
“I agree as well. I believe this is the only thing we can do right now.”
The three Deputy Generals then looked at Ember for her response, however, before the General could respond, someone else spoke.
“I strongly disagree with this plan.”
The Deputy Generals frowned as they turned their heads towards Thyra.
Ember had a frown on her face as well.
“Why do you disagree?”
She questioned.
Actually, even she thought that this plan was good, however, this was the first time she has seen Thyra rejecting something so strongly, therefore, she wanted to listen to her reasonings.
“I want to talk to you, alone.”
Thyra muttered as she looked into Ember’s eyes.
Ember and the Deputy Generals frowned.
“We can talk after the meeting is over.”
Ember replied, Thyra, however, shook her head.
“It is important.”
“…”
Ember turned silent.
Then, she looked at the Deputy Generals and suddenly, Lawrence stood up.
“General Ember, I believe I need some more time to think about this plan in more detail,”
Ember looked at him and smiled thankfully.
“Alright, I give you one day to think it thoroughly, is that enough?”
“Yes.”
“Good, today’s meeting concludes here.”
Ember ordered and the three Deputy Generals stood up, saluted at Ember and left.
Then, Ember looked at Thyra and questioned.
“Now tell me what’s in your mind. Why did you reject that Idea?”
“As you are right now, challenging the Solid Earth Kingdom to a War is a suicidal action.”
Ember got her answer, however, the one who answered the question wasn’t Thyra, but someone else.
Ember frowned and then turned around.
Her eyes then widened in surprise when she noticed Nux standing right behind her with a leisurely look on his face.
“Long time no see, friend.”
“When did you appear behind me?
No, when did you even enter inside the Tent?
No, no, when did you even return from the Solid Earth Kingdom?”
Ember asked a series of questions.
“Well, that is not important.
Aren’t you curious about what I learned from my investigations instead?”
Nux questioned with a smile on his face.
Ember frowned as she wanted to ask more questions, however, she knew her priority, therefore, she subdued her curiosity and questioned.
“What did you learn? What’s happening inside the Solid Earth Kingdom? Why is it moving so strangely? Why is the security so tight? How is the security so tight? How are they able to catch every single one of our spies?”
Suddenly, Nux’s playful smile disappeared and he answered,
“The Emperor is moving.”
Then, Nux revealed everything he learned to Ember and the more she heard, the wider her eyes got.
…
30 minutes later.
“…so you are saying they have 7 King Stage Cultivators acting as the Generals of the Army?”
Ember questioned.
“Yes, their current army is a lot stronger than yours. Following Laurence’s plans is no different than suicide.”
Nux nodded and then, a paper appeared in his hand and he passed it to Ember.
“This is the paper containing all the information about their soldiers, their names, affinities, numbers, and their cultivation, everything.”
“H-How did you get your hands on it?”
Ember questioned in surprise.
Then, a playful smile appeared on Nux’s face and he replied,
“I got it from General Armando.”
