Shayi Judgment was slightly surprised to see Wenren Shanshui leading the team back.
After hearing the other party's description of the situation, his expression was equally grim.
In this way, the five hundred of them would most likely be blocked in the eastern stronghold. Five hundred people being trapped by fifty people would definitely be laughed at if this were made public.
Even if these fifty people were assisted by those Alice thieves.
But Alice's thieves are mainly there to act as a deterrent, and can leave at any time, and they have no way of knowing anything else that happens in the forest.
The forest surrounding this eastern stronghold was like a dark forest that surrounded them, carrying deep murderous intent and oppression.
"Let them use the teleportation scroll to leave and set up the teleportation array at the central base?"
"It's useless. This forest spans five thousand yards. We need at least two teleportation scrolls to send one person out. We only have one hundred, so we can only send out fifty people at most. Moreover, the materials used to make the teleportation point are very fragile. The spatial fluctuations caused by the teleportation scrolls will affect the stability of the materials."
Wenren Shanshui immediately rejected this suggestion.
"Find another way out of the forest?"
"This is probably the only way now, but it will take a long time, and there's no guarantee that Alice's men will launch a surprise attack. Anyway, take the thieves in your team to check for traps in the northeast of the base."
Killing Judgment nodded and immediately took people to carry out the execution.
"I can only hope that the team sent by Qiu Lu..."
Wenren Shanshui took a deep breath.
At the same time, the people sent by Qiu Lu to support the northern stronghold had also arrived at the area near the stronghold. Not long ago, they had received news that the stronghold had fallen and more than a hundred people from the Blue Shadow had died, including the elites of the Black Hand Studio.
"Brother Hong, are we still going over there?"
Tianhui, along with Licheng and Zhimu beside him, cast their gazes towards the figure in front.
They are all members of Blood Moon's secret service, and the person Tian Hui was asking about is none other than the head of Blood Moon's secret service, Xue Hong, who was once ranked among the top 30 professional players in the world.
"We must go there. We cannot let them easily occupy the northern stronghold no matter what."
Xuehong said in a deep voice.
Since Xuehong has made his attitude clear, the others will naturally follow suit.
The team of three hundred people, including the twenty thieves of Blood Moon, immediately quickened their pace and stepped into the outskirts of the area near the northern stronghold.
However, they did not enter immediately, but instead searched around for a small teleportation array left by the blue shadow.
This small teleportation array is also one of Blue Shadow's trump cards. Although it can only teleport a distance of three thousand yards, it can still save the team several minutes of travel time.
There is a similar small teleportation array in the central stronghold, which is why they were able to reach the northern stronghold so quickly.
If Wenren Shanshui's plan could succeed, the two small teleportation arrays and the group teleportation array would be able to connect the three fortresses, which would then form a tight line of defense to keep Alice out.
Although the plans have changed now, it does not hinder their use.
Both ends of the transmission point are set in very hidden locations to prevent being discovered and destroyed by the enemy.
With flickering lights, three hundred people were divided into two groups and moved to a hidden hillside in the forest, while Xuehong led the first group of people and advanced rapidly.
"There seems to be a trap ahead."
Tianhui noticed something strange in front of the forest with his sharp eyes.
"Don't worry about it, those were buried by the Blue Shadow."
Xuehong said.
Unless it is an indiscriminate attack trap, the trap buried by the friendly side will not be triggered when your own people pass by.
In his subconscious mind, Alice had just captured the northern stronghold and had no time to set up defenses and traps around the stronghold. These traps must have been buried by the Blue Shadow's people in the northern stronghold.
However, his judgment pushed the team into the abyss.
Chapter 113 No Hope
Because of someone's deliberate arrangement, the reflex checks of the traps replaced in the forest were all at a lower level. Elite thieves like Xuehong had high reflexes and simply ignored them, but this was not necessarily the case for the team at the back.
In the forest, there is a patch of mottled grass scattered under the sunlight.
A warrior from the Holy Angel Guild followed several of his fellow warriors in cutting through the bushes that blocked their way. Before they had taken a few steps, they suddenly stepped on an uneven ground.
trap?
His heart skipped a beat, but he suddenly felt relieved when he remembered that the Blood Moon Chief had said that these were traps that Blue Shadow had buried around the stronghold and would not be triggered by their own people.
However, the explosive trap didn't care about anything. Just when the warrior calmed down, it exploded with a powerful impact force and knocked the latter out, just hitting a buried area of a spike trap.
The spikes that rose up in unison took away all the opponent's blood in an instant.
Although the trap is very simple, the damage will not be inflicted at all.
At the same time, similar situations occurred to other people. Because the team was in too much of a hurry and was crowded together, the traps often covered several people, resulting in twenty-two deaths at one time.
"what happened?"
Noticing something strange at the back of the team, Xuehong looked surprised and doubtful.
Tian Hui came over with Li Cheng and Zhi Mu with grim expressions, holding the traps that had just been removed from the forest. "Brother Hong, these are not Blue Shadow's traps. They were replaced by Alice, and their reflex tests are lower than our talent judgment."
Xuehong immediately understood.
Alice actually made perfect use of the thief's talent and set up this kind of trap that was equivalent to an active trigger. Of course, the most crucial thing here was that she took advantage of their preconceived thinking, which resulted in the failure to remove the surrounding traps in time.
"Let the thieves gather and take people to the front to check for traps."
Xuehong immediately gave the order, and together with Tianhui and the others, led the thieves in the team to the front to dismantle the traps.
They didn't notice that a few shadows flashed by in the distance of the forest.
Although the trap was simple, it took a lot of effort to dismantle it, and the team's advancement speed suddenly dropped.
Just when Xue Hong and the others had just dismantled the traps within a dozen yards, he suddenly felt the abnormal magical fluctuations around him and was startled, "Disperse!"
Just as Xuehong finished speaking, a large magic circle with mysterious patterns engraved on it suddenly appeared in the sky.
At the same time in the northern stronghold.
After Qiu Li summoned the mysterious door, a dozen top wizards including Meng Yi, Xingkong Tianbo and others nearby put into practice the secret techniques they had learned in the Wizard Tower.
Raging flames, biting cold currents, sweeping thunder and lightning...
These magics passed through the mysterious door and emerged from the magic circle a thousand meters away.
It poured down like a torrent of magic.
Xuehong and Tianhui reacted in time and quickly used their skills to dodge, but the team behind them were not so lucky. The magic circle covered an area of 50*50 yards. After the magic spells fell, they also brought their own range of group damage.
Even though the teams were scattered, they were generally in the same area.
The moment the magic came into contact, more than fifty Blue Shadows were killed.
When the follow-up team was hastily evacuating the area, they were attacked by a group of thieves led by Alice. The aftermath of the magic caused the deaths of more than 30 people, including two Blood Moon thieves.
When Xuehong and Tianhui arrived, Alice's thieves had already retreated in time.
Before the direct battle with Alice's team, the team had already lost one third of its members, which made Xuehong feel very frustrated, but helpless.
He gritted his teeth and gave orders to the team, "Retreat, retreat from the teleportation point."
The team's position has been exposed. If they continue to move forward, they may encounter an ambush ahead. The most important thing is that they have no idea how many traps are hidden around them.
We can only retreat to a safe area first and then consider the next plan.
During the retreat, they also encountered Alice's sneak attack. Fortunately, the team gathered together, and with the vigilance of Xuehong and others, there were not too many casualties. Only five soldiers were killed.
However, when Xuehong led the team back to the teleportation point, his face looked grim.
The fifteen-member team they were responsible for staying behind were all killed, and the teleportation point was destroyed in a mess. No news was sent out beforehand. It was obvious that the top thieves sent by Alice took action to deal with it.
Or perhaps Alice had already known about the existence of this teleportation point, and she made a lightning move right after they left, with the purpose of luring them into this killing zone.
Looking at the darkness all around, it seemed like a forest hiding countless man-eating beasts.
Xuehong felt extremely heavy.
Inside the Eastern Stronghold.
Wenren Shanshui pounded the wall hard, as if he was trying hard to calm himself down, but after calming down he seemed to have lost all his strength and collapsed.
"Judgment, let your people come back, there is no hope."
"why?"
Killing Intent Judgment was still leading his men from the northeast, trying to open up a safe path outward. When he received the news from Wenren Shanshui, he was stunned.
Wenren Shanshui informed the other party of the news of the northern stronghold.
"Xuehong was ambushed and delayed. Alice has completely occupied the northern stronghold. Now even if we rush to the nearest southern stronghold, it will be too late. And it is not difficult to guarantee that they have also set an ambush."
"We lost this battle." Wenren Shanshui closed his eyes, "Let's just end it like this, and don't add any more meaningless losses."
After hanging up the phone, Killing Judgment was silent for a moment, shook his head, and arranged for the people in the team to withdraw to the base.
After hearing the explanation of Killing Judgment, everyone in the team was suddenly in an uproar, and morale dropped several points. After all, anyone would feel the same after learning that there is no hope of winning.
However, just because they have given up resistance doesn't mean Alice will let them go easily.
Just when the team of Killing Judgment was halfway back to the base, they were blocked by Hui Grey Liu Nian and others who had been lying in ambush, and they were intercepted and killed by Ye Yuan, Posa and other members of the thieves' gang.
At the same time, Qiu Ru also led more than 400 members of Alice, avoided the eyes and ears of Qiu Lu, and quietly returned to the area near the Eastern Stronghold, and launched an attack on other teams outside the stronghold who had received orders from Wenren Shanshui to return.

Chapter 114 Killing
In the central base.
"Cousin, the situation over there with Brother Wenren is very critical."
Draw a circle on the ground to make a prison and say it cautiously.
"You think I don't know?" Qiu Lu rubbed his forehead irritably. He just felt a headache. "So what if we know? Can we still send people over to support us now?"
Of the 300-man team sent out from the northern stronghold, only Xuehong and a few thieves from Blood Moon were left who escaped using random teleportation scrolls. In total, there were only about 650 people left in the central stronghold.
They also had to deal with the harassment from Alice who kept sending people to the surrounding strongholds.
The Blue Shadow people in the stronghold were exhausted both physically and mentally.
By the time one of the teams had not appeared for a long time, the other party had already brought that team quietly to the eastern stronghold and launched an attack on Wenren Shanshui's team.
According to the news they just received.
There are only more than 300 members of the Blue Shadow team left in the Eastern Stronghold. They can only huddle inside the stronghold, and even so, they still have to face the assassination attempts of Alice's group of top thieves who sneak into the stronghold.
The Eastern Outpost has already been declared dead.
While the two were talking, news came from outside that Alice had launched an attack. Eleven people were killed again in the central stronghold, but only Alice and her two companions were killed.
"Why does Alice keep sending people here? Haven't they already occupied three strongholds?"
"They did it on purpose. Do you think they would just let us go? They want to kill us all."
Qiu Lu took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself down, but his voice was filled with suppressed anger.
The Eastern Stronghold was sentenced to a slow death.
The situation was the same for their central stronghold. Alice's people had already built preliminary defensive fortifications around the stronghold using traditional methods, and they also occupied the high ground around it.
Every attack would cause casualties to the team defending inside the stronghold, and they could only barely fight back.
If it was a normal battle, Alice's people would not dare to be so arrogant.
