586 Honey trap.

By the end of the next day, all the remaining 5 border cities of the Synder Empire had been captured by the joint collaboration of the League of Assassins and the forces of the Tigeria Empire.

All that was left was to upgrade and transform those cities into strongholds. However, this wasn't going to take much time, especially since technicians were being warped from other captured border cities to quicken the process.

Since most of the equipment had already been built in Tigeria, and the instalment process had been cut down from 12 hours to 6 hours thanks to the extra hands; Seraphina and her group decided it was time to move out.

The job of the members of the League was to approach the city of Willowbrook and activate a portable warp array that would bring in the team of array masters to set up the long-distance array.

Once it was time, Seraphina put on the warping artefact handed to them by the Masked man. The artefact was a necklace with a black fang covered with inscriptions. It allowed the user to warp to any location of their choice in exchange for mana and blood.

The distance covered was proportional to the mana and blood consumed by the artefact, the quality of mana and blood of the user affected the exchange rate.

When she activated the black fang artefact resting on her neck, the inscriptions lit up with a blood-red hue before stabbing into her body. Once it was activated, the five members of the League held hands and warped out of the city.

With the exceptional mana quality and pure blood of an Ordained Angel, they had covered half the distance in one go. Seraphina still had the capacity to go further than that, but she had to be careful since they had no clue of what was waiting for them on the other side. (AN: During each advancement process, the body, blood, mana etc. of the individual is continuously being refined.)

To cover the remaining distance, she passed the artefact to the rest of the team which consisted of 5 peak demigods who took turns using it.

In a matter of minutes, they had arrived at a mountain not too far from Willowbrook. This was going to be their hideout in case things went wrong and the location for warping in the array masters, but first they had to confirm that there were no traps set by the enemy.

Lucius Blackheart, the team's Geomancer stepped forward and placed his hand on the base of the mountain. Using seismic sensing, he watched as the vibrations moved throughout the mountain.

"There seems to be a man-made cave within the mountain with 23 champions and 4 Heroes present. There are also a few traps with most of them placed at the entrance, but they are nothing to worry about." Lucius reported back to the group.

"They are most likely bandits, kill them all." Seraphina said without a change in expression.

Due to the war starting out of nowhere, all cities were immediately locked down and extremely strict searches at the gates began. This left the bandits with nowhere to run, and to make matters worse, they were now jobless since no one dared to travel in such troubling times.

"Hehe." On hearing Seraphina's words, Lucius grinned as he turned back and placed his hand once again on the base of the mountain. contemporary romance

After a few seconds, he withdrew his hand and said. "It's done."

"Lead the way." Seraphina gestured for him to move forward.

With that said, Lucius created a tunnel that led up to the cave created by the bandits.

"Did you have to be so messy?" Specter Dimitri shook his head as they entered the cave only to see bandits impaled in the head and heart from weird angles by earth spikes.

"Clean up this place." Seraphina didn't care about the method Lucius had used to complete the task, all she wanted was for the mission to not be delayed any further.

Immediately, the corpses and belongings of the bandits began sinking into the ground. As for the pool of blood and blood stains all around the cave, a new layer of dirt covered them, leaving the cave ready for the next phase.

Without wasting another second, Seraphina took out a portable warp array and activated it using a thranium crystal.

BUZZZZ!

After a minute of activation, the buzzing sound of the warp arrays soon came to a stop as 10 array masters appeared on the platform.

"You guys wait here, while we go scan the area." Seraphina said to the array masters before leaving the cage with the rest of the team.

From the mountain, they had a clear view of the city using powerful magic-powered binoculars. Not only did they see the range of the sensory formation, but they also had a clear view of the patrols' movement.

"Setting up the Ultra long-distance warping array outside the range of sensory formation would leave the forces at the mercy of the city cannons as they try to cover the distance." Seraphina said as she took off the binoculars.

Dimitri spoke when he heard her comment. "We might be strong, but I don't think we can guarantee the safety of the array masters against the forces of an entire city."

The final stage of the mission requires the array masters to set up the long-distance array. Without them the troops wouldn't arrive at Willowbrook

"No need to worry about that, Granick had already planned for this." Seraphina replied as she took out her communication amulet and contacted Sea Lord Granick to report the situation.

…

"Got it." Granick replied Seraphina as he cut the communication link and turned to his generals.

"Send out the agreed troops to Willowbrook and let's watch how they react." Granick ordered, and immediately they sprang into action.

In less than 30 minutes the agreed number of soldiers had been mobilized; the sound of thousands of troops marching echoed all around the city.

Another round of invasion was about to take place in Willowbrook, but this time they were not sure it would be as 'peaceful' as that of Coastville.
