God of Tricksterschapter 1985: last meeting (2)

"We are going to set up the line." Theo snapped his fingers. Suddenly, three lines of different colors appeared on the map. It wasn't something added previously, it was just Theo improvising with his illusion.

The first line was the outer line which was red in color. "The red line is the danger zone. Basically, it's where we take on their World Class Monsters, including the slime. Since the slime is moving slower than the rest of the monsters, we can set up an ambush after the rest of the monsters pass this line.

"The green line is the safest line, which is the nearest line to the base. This line will become the battlefield against the normal monsters. We are going to station the normal army in this line.

"As for the line between them, the yellow line… it's going to act as a buffer. As all of you know that the battle against the World Class Monster would be bigger than anyone can imagine; if we fight in the green line, many will die from our attacks. So, this yellow line will act as a buffer to contain our power.

"So, we're going to station the Transcendent Level Experts in this area to take on their King Class Monsters. There are going to be a lot, so you might need to use our attacks to kill your opponents.

"You don't have to turn every attack into an opportunity. Just take something you can endure. After all, you would be outnumbered by the enemies, so it's better to prioritize your safety. These are the three basic battlefields that I'm going to set up. Is there any objection?" Theo asked.

Suddenly, the Empress raised her hand, asking, "I just want to confirm my doubt. Are we still going to protect all borders when we're already stretched thin?"

"Absolutely." Theo nodded without hesitation.

"But won't this cause our main army to be outnumbered greatly?"

"Of course, I understand that. That's why we are going to change the battlefield a little bit." Theo pointed at the map and zoomed it out, showing the base's map. He then stretched the green line all over the base. "This will be the situation when the enemies arrive.

"Normally, the enemies would have to spread out to attack our base. In addition, in the previous battle, we failed to kill all the monsters. This would only mean one thing… They're hiding and waiting for the big battle to happen before ambushing our base.

"Thus, I'm planning to set up an ambush for them." Theo pointed at the map, specifically the right side of the base. He formed a small green dot to show and said, "There will be a separate elite group that will sweep away those monsters and travel from one battlefield to another."

"Hmm?" Everyone frowned, not understanding what Theo said. On the one hand, they were already stretched thin, so it was impossible to arrange another army filled with elites. On the other hand, Theo didn't seem to be joking.

"What do you mean? I have seen all the reports and base situations. I don't think there is another army that you can use to kill those monsters…" The War Saint couldn't help but frown, questioning Theo.

"I do have one army." Theo smiled. "They are numbered two thousand. All of them are elites who have survived the brutal apocalypse for a few years without the protection of a base. They even have three Transcendent Level Experts to lead them, so killing those monsters shouldn't be that hard, right?"

"!!!" Everyone widened their eyes in shock. Although they had heard about Theo raising someone's level to Transcendent, they had never heard anything about the additional three Transcendent Level Experts from Theo's group.

The War Saint thought it was an army from outside, but there was supposed to be no more army near the base. After all, the nearest one who had that kind of strength was the Mafia Queen, who had already joined the base.

"This is…" The War Saint narrowed his eyes. "Who are those three experts?"

"I'm not going to tell you right now. You just have to know that there is a separate army to handle that matter." Theo shook his head calmly.

Leonardo was a bit confused. There was no reason why Theo hid this information. After all, additional three Transcendent Level Experts would be great to the yellow line, so why would he do something like this? And where did that army come from?

Leonardo muttered, "If there is an army like you said, they should be able to kill those monsters. There is a chance for some unique monsters or even King Class Monsters to hide among those monsters, so having three Transcendent Level Experts will be reassuring.

"And by not telling us about their information, it seems that you're planning to hide this army from us and the slime. I see, it seems that the army is from the outside. I don't know how you get them, but what matters is that they are useful." Leonardo nodded, giving his approval. "Though, you should know that we're vastly outnumbered, right?"

"I know you are worried about the yellow line. After all, there are only a handful of Transcendent Level Experts on our side. Even if we add the Transcendent Level Experts from the union and United Asia, it's still not enough. Even if we stretch it, they might be able to handle thirty King Class Monsters at most.

"However, you forget one thing. We do have an advantage." Theo smirked while raising his finger.

"An advantage?"

"Yes. We outnumber them in one area." Theo smiled confidently before pausing to create some suspense.

Some of them exchanged looks, wondering about the answer. But as one would expect from the War Saint.

After listening to Theo, calculating his words, and thinking about the possibility, he managed to find out the reason for Theo's confidence. He said with a serious expression. "We outnumber their World Class Monsters."

"!!!" All of them looked at the War Saint in surprise.

Meanwhile, Theo smirked as if he knew his grandfather would catch on. "Exactly so."
