Can you withstand the power of this sword strike, which has been used twice in the game?

They will do everything in their power to secretly hinder the actions of the heroes and the Hero Alliance, and provide the heroes with information and all intelligence.

By then, the hero had grown to the point where he could threaten the demon race.

Not only are their strength enough to threaten the royal servants, but the warriors, specializing in large-scale battles, are also slaughtering the demons, and the demons' territory is being taken over piece by piece by humans.

Therefore, it is hoped that what the Empire is doing is exactly what the demons need.

Hopefully, what the Empire did directly broke down the information gap between the two sides, and the heroes were no longer terrifying upright apes with unknown information.

At the same time, a large number of the heroes' followers were assassinated, and the heroes' solid support was directly punctured.

Thinking of this, Annie subconsciously glanced at Lycorina.

Lycorina, walking beside him, noticed his gaze, turned her head and looked up at him: "Anyi, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, I just think you're amazing," An Yi said calmly.

"Huh?" Lycorina was taken aback, then chuckled sheepishly. "Why is Annie suddenly praising me? What's so special about me? What are you thinking?"

An Yi: "The ability to sever cooperation with the Empire of Hope without hesitation."

He wasn't lying.

By severing ties and cutting off all cooperation, the Hero Alliance will prevent much of its information from falling into the hands of the Hope Empire.

Not just information about the present, but also information about the future. (Six)

He didn't lie, but he didn't finish his sentence. (Four)

An Yi couldn't believe how this seemingly silly and sometimes eccentric little beauty could lead all the warriors through such a desperate situation.

It's unimaginable what kind of pressure she was under, or what methods she used to get to the end.

Back then, An Yi, who knew the future and was skilled in combat, was not there to help her.

Therefore, she is remarkable.

She was truly remarkable in her past life.

Suddenly, the voice stopped abruptly, as if it had been abruptly cut off without warning.

Meanwhile, the twenty warriors walking through the abandoned city also vanished from the road, as if they had evaporated into thin air.

From the outside, this was how it appeared; however, the group of heroes who continued on their way were unaffected and continued walking through the alleys of the abandoned city.

In fact, they had been moving at a certain agile speed the whole way, and only slowed down when they entered the city, and then had some time to chat.

The reason for slowing down is that we are about to "arrive at our destination".

"We're almost there," Milu said from behind An Yi.

It appears that the Saintess Squad is leading the way, but in reality, the only one who knows the route is Miluko.

Before they could even look around, they turned the corner and saw a black-haired boy in white with a childlike face standing at the end of the alley.

He faced the crowd with a slightly nervous smile: "Everyone, you must be tired from your journey."

I am the Phantom Hero, just call me Zom.

Please follow me, everyone. I will take you to the supply station.

Zom very stiffly bent down slightly and stretched out his hand towards the dead end, making a "please" gesture.

Before him stood the Saintess Squad! The legendary Saintess Squad!

And just the day before he was having a headache over how to defeat slimes, this morning he suddenly became a member of the [Demon Hero's Dedicated Supply Station]!

Although I don't know why it turned out this way, it all happened so suddenly!

An Yi nodded: "That's right, you can create this kind of illusion even at a low level."

Once we enter the Demon Realm, someone will guide you to hunt demons and level up. We look forward to seeing how you perform.

"Ah...ah...yes!" Zom was at a loss for words!

That's the Sword Hero, right?! It must be the Sword Hero, right?!

The Sword Hero actually praised me!

Zom's outstretched hand trembled slightly.

What young person doesn't admire heroes?

Even if someone stubbornly says, "What's so special about that?!", they still acknowledge the other person's achievements in their heart.

The group continued onward, and Zom shouted, "I'll lead the way!" before heading towards the wall at the end of the dead end.

The next moment, he vanished from everyone's sight, just like the heroes had disappeared into the city.

Some brave souls were secretly amazed, thinking that even with their own agility, they couldn't see how the other person disappeared.

An Yi, without blinking, walked into the "wall" search group.

Behind the wall was another road, and waiting beside it was yet another brave warrior, an old acquaintance.

"Senior brothers, you've finally arrived."

The dignified young lady, Felia, smiled at An Yi.

Chapter 145 Humans Still Have Experts?! (4k)

One of the biggest roles of the Brave Alliance is as a large supply depot.

After all, he's a hero; he needs to eat too.

Now that we've severed ties with the Empire of Hope, the Hero Alliance can't establish itself in the border regions, so we'll have to resort to other means.

That is, to mobilize heroes with the relevant abilities to establish supply stations outside the borders of the Hope Empire, closer to the demons, and in places that the Hope Empire would find hard to notice.

Since this supply station only serves the five teams involved in this operation, there's no need for a large number of people, and certainly no need to establish a heroes' alliance in this abandoned city.

If a small settlement were established, involving too many people, it would be easier to leave traces that would be discovered by the Empire of Hope.

Interference in a general sense and direct interference are two different concepts.

Hopefully, the empire won't cause too much trouble in the grand scheme of things, because while maintaining its "glorious, righteous, and correct" image, it also has to create trouble by creating a huge information gap.

However, if a Hero Alliance is established, it would be like giving the other side a loophole that they can control out of thin air. Therefore, it would be better to just find a few necessary heroes to do the minimum level of material transportation.

First, since it's about resupplying resources, a fixed supply point is extremely important.

The supply point must be in a sufficiently safe location.

Leaving aside the threat from the demons, since the demons had no idea these people existed, there was no need to worry about them being found by the demons.

For security reasons, it's only intended to prevent the Hope Empire from discovering it.

The reason why it must be a fixed location is quite simple.

With a fixed location, a fixed supply route can be developed from the demons.

Given that the demons are unaware of their existence, a fixed route is much more convenient than randomly changing locations.

Furthermore, randomly changing locations requires sufficient familiarity with the demon territory, which is beyond the capabilities of the heroes at this stage.

In order to ensure that the supply location is discovered, a brave warrior who can hide his whereabouts is crucial.

After screening, the Hero Alliance selected the most suitable hero.

【The Phantom Hero】

Since awakening his abilities, the Phantom Hero Zom has possessed the passive skill [Illusion].

Within a certain area centered on him, everything will become an illusion that he can freely control.

He can alter what outsiders perceive to some extent.

Hearing, sight, smell, and even touch can induce hallucinations in people within the field.

This is actually a negative state, but...

Just like Elsa's domain, most heroes find it difficult to actively realize that they have entered a negative state.

Elsa's domain at least instills fear, but this "illusion" doesn't evoke any real feeling in the person experiencing it. (4%)

The system will display that it is correct, but you need to open the status panel to see it; it will not provide a prompt automatically.

Finding the city where everyone was in the vast cluster of abandoned cities was already difficult enough, let alone finding a single building within that city.

While finding a building, you also need to realize that the street is shrouded in an illusion, and then find the specific alley where it is located.

No matter how capable the Empire is, it would be an impossible task for them to accomplish.

Moreover... the other side was unaware that the secret operation team had already arrived at the border of the Empire.

Perhaps they even thought that their actions had caused the heroes to be too afraid to act.

In addition to the heroes hiding in the concealed locations, a highly agile hero is also needed to coordinate the operation, facilitating the transfer of personnel and supplies.

This highly agile warrior is none other than the trustworthy [Agile Warrior], Felia.

The heroes at the supply station don't stay here for long, because the heroes who venture into the demon realm don't return every day.

The current resupply time is tentatively set at one week, but this may be changed to half a month or one month once all the infiltrating heroes are familiar enough with the demons and have a fixed route.

The timing depends on the progress of the heroes. If more heroes infiltrate in the future, the frequency may increase, but that's a matter for later.

During the period before resupply time, Felia can send the heroes who come to help back to their original areas to continue fighting the border demons and leveling up.

After Zom and Felia met the group, they went through several more dead ends.

Actually, it's just a few turns, but to someone who doesn't know the area, it looks like a dead end no matter which way you go. In the end, you can only return the way you came and leave the area from another direction.

"How is Marley doing lately?"

On the way, An Yi asked Felia about another junior sister, the Wind Warrior.

[Wind Warrior] was introduced to Irene by An Yi.

Initially a mage-type hero, but under Irene's tutelage, she is now also a [magic swordsman] proficient in wind and magic.

If any apprentice's path is most similar to that of Irene, it would undoubtedly be Marie.

However, she was busy fighting demons in the area she was in charge of, improving her sword skills' proficiency, so An Yi rarely saw her compared to Felia.

Upon hearing An Yi mention Marie, Felia smiled and said, "Marie has been doing very well recently, and she has gained a certain reputation in the area she is protecting."

We would regularly go back to our master to learn new sword techniques, and Marie always learned faster than me.
