In the sea outside Mingcheng, because now Kong Ming is slowly adapting to life at sea, he has always put his command on the Magic Eagle aircraft carrier, in fact, to put it bluntly, it is habit to become natural. At this time, Kong Ming also received a letter from the city refusing to surrender, claiming to fight to the last man, and believing that those who surrendered were betrayals of the Demon Shark, traitors who should be executed, and would be attacked with all their might.

"Is there any information about the city now?" asked Kumei. This is the most important thing, because Kong Ming wants to know why they still have such confidence now, otherwise, if they don't find out and send troops, the expeditionary force will suffer irreparable losses, and Kong Ming doesn't want this kind of loss to accompany the expeditionary force every step, you must know that they have to conquer far away places.

"Not yet, we only have information from the other days. Sima Wei replied.

"In other words, we don't know anything about Sewing now?" Kong Ming said, with some annoyance in his voice, because intelligence is the eye of an army's battle, the basis of an army's battle, and the lack of intelligence means that the army is blind.

"That's true. None of the intelligence agents we sent sent out a word of information about Sei. Sima Wei said silently, his voice was trembling with a hint when he said it, Kong Ming and Li Feizhi knew that if this situation occurred, then it could be considered that the intelligence personnel had been killed by the enemy, or they had no way to pass on the information. Why can't it be transmitted? That's a big question, in other words. That is, in the city of Quilt, there is enough strength to block magical communications and capture those pervasive intelligence agents or make them unable to transmit information, this ability is very terrifying. Because intelligence officers are masters of this way.

"In other words, an external force has intervened in our war with the Demon Shark. Kong Ming said slowly. This is something they very unwanting. Because this unknown thing will make their judgment skewed, and in war, the slightest deviation will make a battle lost, which is not allowed by Kongming, and it is also what he avoids during the day.

"And this force should be able to fight us, otherwise they wouldn't have the confidence to stay there, or they wouldn't be there for a long time. Li Feizhi said, as a sword master. He has always been very sensitive to this kind of thing, this is not a feeling he has alone, but a little intuition of all sages about the unknown. To put it bluntly, if you believe in it, it will exist, and if you don't believe it, it won't, but after they reach their level. It's always a little more accurate.

"If that's the case. It's probably going to be very scary, don't even think about it, they must want to use the sewing as bait to fool us. Sima Wei said that this was a mistake in his intelligence, and if there was a real mistake, the army's damage would be irreparable.

"Let's think about it, how sure are they that we're going to be wiped out there?High Sage?or Magic Array?" Kong Ming said, this is an important reason.

"It's not clear. I think maybe both. Li Feizhi skeptically that this is very likely. No one wanted to face an army composed of countless powerhouses above level six, let alone a large number of sages in this army.

"I think they're trying to use something we don't know about to get rid of us. Kong Ming thought for a moment and said again.

"If they want to defeat us, they may be able to do it, but if they want to destroy us, then they have to have a certain amount of terrain, otherwise it will be difficult for them to achieve this goal. Li Feizhi said.

"Anyway, I think they should have some kind of magic circle for our people to get caught up in and can't extricate themselves, and this magic circle must also have the function of isolating magical communication. Sima Wei is really obsessed with the lack of intelligence, and now he can only rely on the intuition of experts to make guesses, so as to make up for the lack of intelligence, which is a common practice.

"It is impossible for the magic array to be open all the time, or they have made a distinction between the opening procedures of the magic array, only in this way that the magic crystal will not be wasted. Kong Ming thought for a while and said, this is an opportunity, the enemy has an unknown magic array, this kind of magic array wants to leave all the expeditionary forces behind, there must be enough magic crystals as support, and there must be enough strong people waiting for them there, and now their army of more than three million, to Kong Ming Island is only more than 100,000 people, and the rest are still training in Binhai City, because after the enemy's main force is eliminated, they do not need more troops to this place that has not been fully developed, and then they only need to recruit some ordinary soldiers to solve the remaining problems, so they have to focus the rest of their energy on other islands。 But now that the enemy dares to attack them in a provocative way, and is there waiting for the arrival of the expeditionary force, it can be said that they are ready to kill the expeditionary force on the island, and perhaps they do not seek to completely annihilate the expeditionary force, but they still have the ability to make the expeditionary force retreat in the face of difficulties.

"In other words, it's a trap, and we have to go there. Li Feizhi said, this is an obvious fact, if the seam is not knocked down for a day, then the other cities under the island will be stupid and pre-move, standing there and watching, and the entire island will slow down the reception process, which the empire does not want to see.

"Sima Wei, immediately send out aerial reconnaissance, I want to know a few locations, one is the range of the magic array, the other is the range of the magic communication failure, and the most important one is where the center of the magic array is. These three must be done. As long as you know these three points, then the next thing will be very easy to do.

"Also, you start from the surroundings or the sea, and see if anyone has been in the sea, or has been in contact with them during this time. ”

Kong Ming's words made Li Feizhi a little alert. He smelled something unthinkable,

"Kong Ming, are you saying that there are other forces involved in this war?" Li Feizhi said incredulously.

"It should be, or else. They don't have that much courage, and after the death of a high-ranking saint and the annihilation of the main army, they still have the ability to call us out. And those who work with them are meant to put a trap in the seams, so that we can focus on this place and ignore the others. It is either Cornerstone Island in the north or Thunder Island in the south that can do these things, and in either case, they want to use this large array to sabotage our operations, because they know it. As long as we destroy the enemies on Kongming Island, the next stop will be them, if they want to prolong the war. The only hope is to drag us here, so that they will have more time to prepare, knowing that our goals are very clear, and this is something that the world knows. It's possible that they didn't come alone. It could be two, three or even more. They may have figured out a way to get us to abandon our plan of attack on the Sixteen Islands. Well, this can make me think about it, there are too many cats in it, so I have to think about it. The more Kong Ming said, the more he felt that there were some things in it that he didn't know, and there was really too little information here. It was not enough for him to make a correct judgment, and he walked outside the command cabin while thinking about Kongming. Standing under the eaves, looking at the sea that was still raining, maybe he thought too much, although it was possible for these sixteen islands to unite to deal with the expeditionary force, but because the Huayuan Empire seized Kongming Island, that is to say, Kongming directly cut off the connection between them, if they wanted to come over, only the Tongguò teleportation array, and the Tongguò teleportation array could only send a few strong people over, and in the previous information, these sixteen islands did not have a universal teleportation array, after all, they were all mixed up on the sea, and no one would set up a back door in their own backyard to let others attack, but now I want to come, they should have been united, even if there was no union, they would have this kind of intention, after all, the death of the demon shark gave those high-level saints a sense of threat. And the fall of Demon Shark Island is to make their lives really threatened, at this time, a few people from each of their islands came to Demon Shark Island to test it, and it is very necessary to think about it. Because several islands were connected by the teleportation array, those remnants of the Demon Shark saw a glimmer of hope for regaining the Demon Shark Island, so the two sides were in love with each other, and they hit it off, although this is also a plot with the tiger, but it is better than dying now. And so it was in this situation that they came together. In other words, there are not many people who come, most of them are Sages, and it is not excluded that there are high-level Sages, because if there are no High-level Sages, no one can suppress the Sages of these sixteen islands, so there should be a trap commanded by high-level Sages with Sages as the main body.

Thinking of this, Kong Ming's eyes lit up, there was no mistake, it should be like this, and that magic array was to avoid leaking this kind of information and let the expeditionary force be prepared.

Kong Ming didn't know, his guess was almost not much different from the truth, but he still underestimated the power of that magic array, which was built by those high-level saints on the fifteen islands with gritted teeth. This magic array is a magic array based on illusion and water attack magic, which is also combined with electricity, wind, dark and other magic killing arrays in it, known as the ten unique arrays, because its area covers the entire seam, so the cost is quite strict, according to the high-level sage sitting in the magic array at this time, the island owner of Thunder Island, Thunder Eagle said, I don't want to come to this kind of big array again. His pocket had shrunk by a tenth, which was his savings for thousands of years, not a tenth of a year, as the state would say. You must know that when Kong Ming slaughtered the Demon Shark, the income of the entire empire increased several times, and that did not include those high-level sages who took it privately, but only those who handed it over to the treasury, so you can see what a big expense this is. In order to keep their work secret, they even locked all the residents of the seaweed in the house, and some even advocated killing all of them, but they were opposed by the Demon Shark Island, what a joke, among the people who lived in it, nine out of ten were related to the Demon Shark, although the dead Demon Shark did not know this, but his sons knew. This is also the reason why the scouts inside the seam can't send information. In order to prevent the expeditionary force from knowing about this, Thunder Eagle opened the magic array to a minimum, of course, this is only a vigilance nature, and it does not have real resistance.

Nestled on a high hill outside the city. There were two lightning eagles and four soldiers from the expeditionary force, who were one of the men sent to reconnoitre.

"Brother Hou. What are we doing here? Can't you go a little further, you're always so careful, really. A medium-sized swordsman of about one meter eight said. Since there are not too many archers in the expeditionary force now, many times the great sword master is required to learn the most basic archery skills, because the requirements of Kong Ming are not very high, like what three-point arrows and five-point arrows in archery. You don't need to track arrows, just learn to shoot, and you're good to go. Therefore, most of the people who cooperate with the magicians are also great sword masters, and those great archers are reserved as elite talent types.

"If you want to die, don't pull me. A thin young man of a little over 1.7 meters said. He is the leader of this small reconnaissance team, Hou Zhiqing, who is secretly a great sword master, and he has a natural premonition for this kind of work. It's as if he was born to scout. How many times he has gotten the information he wants from all kinds of incredible places, which also impresses his peers, and this time the expeditionary force was formed, he was also assigned here, because in his opinion, Kongming's goal is also his goal, and the starry sky is a place he has longed for since he was a child.

"What's wrong?" asked the wind magician Wind Walk from the side. He and Hou Zhiqing have only known each other for a long time, but because the two of them are in the same team. The two had a temper again, so they quickly became friends. Hearing the magician's words, another magician also looked at him, and he was with the medium man.

"I'm very sensitive to things like magic circles, and although I'm not a magician, I can feel as if there's a huge magic circle in front of us. Hou Zhiqing said, his words shocked the other three people, you know, there is a magic array and there is danger, so after he felt it for the first time, he stopped.

"Let me take a look. Feng Zhixing said, he didn't have much research on the magic array, but if he just looked at the scope of this magic array, he had a difficult means for others, I saw him silently recite a few spells, and then a light wind passed by him and flew towards the location of the magic array, for him, the wind is his eyes, and the other three people knew that he had such a ability, standing aside without speaking, quietly waiting, and at the same time guarding for him. An hour later, another light breeze blew from the opposite side, circled around the wind a few times and then disappeared without a trace, the wind traveler's face was blue for a while, it seemed that this magic made him consume a lot, the wind line said: " The scope of this magic array is very large, the entire seam is all encircled, it is centered on the palace of the seam, the places where the magic fluctuations are more intense are in the palace, and the palace is five kilometers away from the palace in the southeast, northwest and four directions, their magic fluctuations are electricity, dark, wind, the most of which is the water system, and there is a kind of spiritual magic, in which the magic array of the spiritual system is in the palace, the water system is in the east, the electricity system is in the west, the dark system is in the north, and the wind system is in the south, they use five magic arrays and other magic arrays to surround the entire seam。 ”

Hearing this, the person who said it didn't feel anything, but the person who listened to it gasped, in such a large area, the enemy must have a strong person in the magic array that they couldn't understand. Hou Zhiqing immediately used the original words of Feng Zhixing to transmit them back using magic communication. Moments later, they were asked to return immediately. This decision made them all wonder, how could this task be so easy to complete?

It's not a simple task at all, except that they are only responsible for one aspect of it, and the rest is sent back by other teams. After quickly summarizing all the information, Sima Wei immediately came to the command cabin and explained the situation to Kong Ming and Li Feizhi.

"According to the information brought back by the scouts, with the Imperial Palace of Suiyi City as the center, a radius of five kilometers is the range of this magic array......" Sima Wei had just said the beginning, and Kong Ming said to him: "Stop first, don't rush, drink saliva, and wait until the others have arrived." Kong Ming said indifferently.

At this time, Sima Wei was almost mad, he didn't expect to come here in a hurry, but he let Kong Ming put it aside, and didn't even ask him about the content of the information. Seeing him like this, Kong Ming smiled and said, "I know you are in a hurry, and I know that you want to say it now, but if you say it now, then you have to say it again later, you might as well wait and say it again." After saying a few nonsense, Kong Ming looked at the sea, after a few battles, his view of the sea completely changed, he now hates the sea very much, but now there is no other scenery to see in this direction except the sea, so he can only look at the sea. He was calculating, thinking, to see which island had the most effort, the most hard, and sometimes the enemy's initiative was not a bad thing, they could defeat the enemy's main force here, and then it would be easier to occupy other places. After a while, all the people came, Li Feizhi, Tang Xiang, Feng Jiaming, Lu Zhongyi and Ling Yun, and Zhuge Yibu was specially invited.

"Okay, Minister Sima, tell everyone the information you have obtained, Staff Officer Zhang, mark it on the map with magic, and follow this example in the future, I won't repeat it. Kong Ming said to Sima Wei.

"Well, I'll give you the latest information I have gotten, according to our aerial reconnaissance, a huge magic array has been set up in the city of Suiyi, with the palace as the center, within a radius of five kilometers. The scope of the whole magic array is very large, the whole seam is all encircled, it is centered on the palace of the seam, the places where the magic fluctuations are more intense are in the palace, and the palace is five kilometers away from the palace in the southeast, northwest and four directions, their magic fluctuations are electricity, dark, wind, the most of them are the water system, and there is a kind of spiritual magic, in which the magic array of the spiritual system is in the palace, the water system is in the east, the electricity system is in the west, the dark system is in the north, and the wind system is in the south, they use five magic arrays and other magic arrays to surround the entire seam。 In addition to this, they have an effective height of fifty meters, which means that in order to protect against our Air Force, they at the same time arrange possible magic arrays to prevent air attacks by our Air Force. Since the situation is under the cover of the magic array, we don't know their specific deployment now. Sima Wei said, thought about it again, and added gloomily, "This is already the most detailed information we can get." ”

"Well, first of all, we thank the intelligence officers, for the simplicity of intelligence, but it was bought from the lives of many of our intelligence officers, and we must pay tribute to them. From this information, we can conclude that there are already external forces joining this battle, and in order to challenge our authority, they chose to set up a battle formation in the city of Suiyi, as a bait to make our soldiers pay a huge price for the capture of this city, and we have reason to believe that there is already a teleportation array in the city that can lead to the other fifteen islands, that is, they can get the support of the strong people of the other fifteen islands at any time, you must know that the wealth of the East China Sea is beyond our imagination. Oh, I was wrong, I should be able to get a lot of support from strong people at any time. So what should we do now?" After Kong Ming finished speaking, he pointed directly to Zhuge Yibu and motioned for Zhuge Yibu to speak. Seeing this situation, Zhuge Yibu, who originally planned to come to the future, could only speak, after all, he still had the title of a senior staff officer.

"The most important thing we should do now is how to destroy the teleportation array. Zhuge Yibu said. This is also the common sentiment of all people. It's a pity that Kong Ming's answer disappointed them.

"The first thing we should do is to determine which of the High Sages who are coming here, or two, in fact, we prefer two to come better. And in order to determine this thing, so gentlemen, we are going to have another battle, air raids. (To be continued......)
