But more importantly, at this moment, the acting chairman of Golande Artisan's General Guild—the former head of the Crystal Department—Jupiter Tongwan, this old Dwarf with grizzled beard and wrinkled face, was pointing at the image, his fingers trembling.
It is well known that the Dwarves of Eteliria have outstanding talents in alchemy, but Dwarves often excel as Combat Artisan Masters. Thus, in his youth, Jupiter Tongwan was also the kingdom's top Combat Artisan. But age spares no one, and the previous king, out of consideration, allowed the old and visually impaired man to retire from the Combat Artisan Department, placing him in the Crystal Department to live out his days, which was a special kind of favor.
But speaking of being visually impaired, in all of Colin Ishurian, there are probably no more than five people whose achievements in understanding Combat Artisans surpass his.
At this moment, the "visually impaired" old man was staring intently at the image, muttering to himself as if dreaming:
"Dragon Soul, Fairy Dragon Soul!"
Just then, his assistant pushed open the door and asked, "Chairman, the Class A3 transmission spell is ready, the spell channel is very unstable, but we have only locked down four coordinates."
The man hesitated for a moment and asked back, "Court Sorcerer suggests we could wait another quarter of an hour, then we could lock onto more coordinates, making it more secure."
"A quarter of an hour?"
Jupiter Tongwan, usually seen by people as a red-nosed, smiley, very amicable old man, roared like thunder at that moment, "Not a second later, prepare for the transmission immediately, add some more artisan materials to the list. If anything goes wrong, you wait to be kicked out of the guild by me!"
This frightened the assistant so much that he repeatedly responded affirmatively and scurried out, tripping over himself.
Yet, this little episode was but a momentary distraction to those underground.
Fang Hong's Energy Angels were leading the charge into the enemy lines, using Swift Tactics again—he had already fully assessed the capabilities of these Dragon's Claw followers through several battles. He first controlled two Energy Angels to each take down a target with a sword, then made the pair of metal girls swap places with Blink. Blinking in the midst of a horde is extremely risky, but the Energy Angels' Sensing Field endowed them with unmatched agility.
The moment they swapped positions, they deftly dodged incoming attacks by a hair's breadth and immediately counterattacked. After two swords clashed, they beheaded one enemy and then took down two more.
The Dragon's Claw followers couldn't react in time, their formation broke, and the others also took the chance to penetrate the enemy's formation. The latter seemed unable to hold them back, stepping back and thus revealing a gap.
But Fang Hong paused at that moment, spread his fingers wide, and had the Energy Angels position their arms like a cross, blocking all enemies while deploying a pale blue shield. He pointed forward towards the left wing where the Dragon's Claw followers were retreating and commanded, "Twenty steps, Explosive Crossbow Bolts, no delay, two consecutive shots."
The people of Silver Weslan were long used to following his commands, almost firing in unison without needing to think, and the Dragon's Claw followers' orderly retreat, which was supposed to be a trap, turned into a genuine chaos under the surprise explosion of Flash and shockwaves.
Caught off guard, the monsters' formation was thrown into disarray, and what was supposed to be an ambush turned into genuine chaos. This time, even Paradise's Blossom and Gabriel beside noticed, unable to help but inwardly praise the high standards of the commander of Silver Weslan.
Unknown to them, Fang Hong was just intuitively acting on a hunch, the blind cat that found a dead mouse.
Knowing the opportunity shouldn't be missed, they charged forward without waiting for the smoke to clear, and as they said, although their men weren't as strong as those of Silver Weslan, they pushed forward significantly by relying on numbers and reckless fearlessness, especially since the Dragon's Claw followers had not recovered from the confusion.
Over the team's channel, KUN softly praised Fang Hong, his detailed commands not always captured by Fang Hong's Clockwork Fairy since he wasn't commanding on the field, thus his reaction this time was a beat slower than Fang Hong's.
However, he had long seen that this young man's command standard was mediocre yet he possessed an exceptional sharpness for the dynamics of combat.
And the attack Fang Hong led with the Energy Angels into the enemy ranks looked ordinary, but it was swift and accurate, flowing smoothly, and the technique of that Blink swap caught other peoples' eyes in Golande Square and the major guilds, who began whispering among themselves, asking about the name of this newcomer cultivated by Silver Weslan.
For it is well known that clubs usually heavily promote their star newcomers, and Sophie's title of the Little Princess of Silver Weslan was really a selling point as well. Fang Hong's demonstrated level clearly set him apart from the ordinary, but it puzzled everyone that they had never heard of such a person from Silver Weslan before.
In Gods' Bastion, Chenxi just received a text, he glanced at it and couldn't help but smile bitterly; it turned out to be an 'old friend' asking him if he had hidden another genius newcomer.
He didn't know how to respond for a moment; this was the third such message he received in a short period, and previously he had vehemently denied that Fang Hong was a newcomer from his guild, resulting in a scathing rebuttal from the other party.
