However, when Zhang Bo arrived at the safe house below the apartment, he found that someone had already arrived.
"Bo Ge, you're here?" There was already a Wood Elf waiting in the safe house, and this Wood Elf was a Blue Star Human who had achieved Wood Elf resonance.
"Yes, I'm here." Zhang Bo nodded, looking at the familiar face of the Blue Star Human. He knew they had met before, so his tone relaxed considerably: "Did you bring everything?"
"Everything's here." The Blue Star Human gestured behind him, and from the dense bushes nearby, two more Wood Elves emerged.
These were Wood Elves from the Spiritual Realm, his Wood Elf followers.
They were each carrying two backpacks.
Seeing the Blue Star Human's signal, they quickly walked over and placed the backpacks beside him.
"Bo Ge, check this. This is your Magic Crystal Ball." The Blue Star Human handed Zhang Bo a larger backpack first.
"Hmm, yes, it's indeed my Magic Crystal Ball. It's truly powerful. I can feel the abundant magical energy within it. It seems the Wood Elf Plane has already repaired a part of this Magic Crystal Ball."
After receiving it, Zhang Bo placed his hand on the familiar, crystal-like sphere of the Magic Crystal Ball, closed his eyes, and gently sensed it. Then he opened his eyes and nodded in satisfaction: "If I hadn't known beforehand that it had been modified, I wouldn't have realized that it had actually been enchanted with the power of a teleportation array."
"Of course, these were made by the elders on the Wood Elf Plane." The human responsible for bringing the items nodded.
Then he handed the other package to Zhang Bo and said, "According to your instructions, Bo Ge, this is the core foundation found on the Wood Elf Plane. It consists of magic items with light power and magic items with natural aura. They are quite precious and have also been modified by the teleportation gate."
"Very good, very good." Zhang Bo took the backpack again, and a smile appeared on his face as he saw the strong light aura and natural aura emanating from it.
His plan was now halfway complete.
However, at this moment, Zhang Bo put away his smile and looked at the Blue Star Human, asking seriously, "Are you sure there are no mistakes? Have the teleportation gate spells been enchanted onto all of them?"
Zhang Bo needed to be certain, as this concerned the success or failure of his ultimate plan, and he absolutely could not relax.
"Of course, Bo Ge, rest assured. These were all specifically instructed by Big Brother Zhang Song, and General Yang was also present and confirmed everything." The Blue Star Human nodded seriously. After all, being chosen to deliver such important items meant he was quite clever, very alert, and worked diligently.
It inherently represented recognition of him.
"Good, that's good." Zhang Bo finally relaxed, then continued to discuss some detailed aspects of the plan with the Blue Star Human. Once he confirmed there were no issues, he turned and left.
Of course, he wasn't heading back to Deherim. Instead, he walked deeper into the apartment complex, towards other residential units or apartment buildings in Bali River Street that had not yet been covered by Mount & Blade Rules.
Zhang Bo needed to use some special actions to cover his movements.
After all, he couldn't just inexplicably acquire magic items with light power and magic items with natural power. He needed an excuse. Going out to those unexplored and undeveloped apartments and residential areas in Bali River Street was a very good move.
After all, even the Spiritual Realm Commander team, composed of Zhang Caidong and the senior managers and middle-level managers, had not yet ventured into those apartments and residential areas, nor had they developed them.
Therefore, if he risked going there, he might very well gain some unexpected rewards, which served as an excellent excuse.
After all, no one would suspect that he had secretly contacted the Wood Elf forces, and that the Wood Elf forces had even transformed his magic items into special ones capable of opening teleportation gates at any time.
But Zhang Bo needed a good excuse to conceal the reason for suddenly acquiring these two magic items.
As it stood, Zhang Bo had successfully repaired his Magic Crystal Ball, and he had even mentioned to Shen Mu earlier that his Magic Crystal Ball would recover some basic functions in two or three days.
Now, two or three days had passed, and it was only natural and expected that his Magic Crystal Ball would begin to recover some basic functions.
Everything was going smoothly.
Everything was falling into place.
So Zhang Bo now walked into a residential area in Bali River Street, looking at the sparsely populated surroundings, where practically no signs of life could be seen. A hint of joy appeared on his face.
The environment here clearly indicated that few people had come this way, which was good and very suitable for him to cover his tracks.
Without any hesitation, Zhang Bo walked in and found a residential building. He began to climb the stairs and quickly found a house with an open door that had already been thoroughly looted.
This was evidence that the surviving Blue Star Humans had come here to scavenge for supplies, as they also needed to find resources.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to live.
Of course, none of this mattered to Zhang Bo now. He had long since moved past the initial period of needing to wander and scavenge for supplies. He was now living quite well in Deherim and didn't need to worry about resources.
And even if Deherim were to fall and he returned to Green Leaf Group, he still wouldn't have to worry about supplies.
He wasn't some poor wretch with no one to help him.
So Zhang Bo was in a very joyful mood now.
Especially seeing the two backpacks he was still carrying, his mood was even more elated. After all, he would soon be able to orchestrate the entire downfall of Deherim, like a general director finally able to start filming, finally able to set his plan in motion.
Sitting by the window in the room, Zhang Bo looked at the dilapidated scenery of Long City outside.
A hint of emotion flickered in his eyes.
One must know that Long City was once so prosperous, but three years ago, with the arrival of the death spirit rules, Long City turned into a terrifying, monster-like ruin. All its former prosperity vanished, and its past glory had become a mournful graveyard.
Now, Long City no longer represented the glorious achievements of human civilization, but a paradise where monsters dwelled.
Everything was built upon the tragic reality of the Blue Star Humans.
Only these Blue Star Humans were struggling to survive, moving towards an unknown fate.
"Of course, none of this concerns me. What I need to do now is destroy Deherim." Zhang Bo snorted coldly, then looked at the dusty sofa nearby. He gently extended his hand, and the fluctuation of Spiritual Realm magic appeared in his mind, sweeping directly over the dusty sofa.
A special power instantly appeared in his attributes, and then the countless dust particles on the dusty sofa immediately vibrated, scattering directly to the side.
They spread out and fell all over the floor by the wall, forming a small pile of dust.
But the sofa itself was now completely clean, allowing Zhang Bo to sit or even lie on it comfortably for a nap.
Zhang Bo relaxed and quickly fell asleep.
However, as he drifted off, he also had a sense of vigilance within him. He had set a sleeping limit for himself; he would wake up around the afternoon.
This was a biological clock that Blue Star Humans could now regulate.
After all, Blue Star Humans who couldn't regulate their biological clocks were already dead.
Just imagine, if he overslept, it would be night. If there were no matches, no light, no flammable materials, then when darkness and death spirit rules descended, it would mean the monsters of death would also descend.
Even as a Spiritual Realm Commander, he was just a Prophecy-type Mage with no close-combat ability.
He would die a terrible death then too.
So Zhang Bo was truly used to it.
Thus, he fell into a daze and slept. Then, when he woke up around three or four in the afternoon, he opened his eyes blankly, a smile on his lips, and sat up from the sofa.
"So comfortable."
Zhang Bo stretched vigorously. Seeing the two packages still in the corner, with no issues, his mood became even more cheerful.
Looking out the window, the sunlight was still slightly dim but bright.
It was clearly afternoon.
Zhang Bo rubbed his stomach. Since he hadn't eaten lunch, his stomach was now rumbling with hunger.
So he picked up the two backpacks, moved a little to loosen his stiff bones from sleeping, and then left the room, left the apartment building, and walked towards Deherim.
From afar, he could see the outline of Deherim, and he could also see the Torch Tower, shimmering with white light, within Deherim's Castle District.
"No matter where or when I see it, I can feel the pure light power permeating and emanating from that Torch Tower. It is truly astonishing."
Zhang Bo was also filled with emotion at this moment, and his eyes held a complex look: "However, this might also be a main reason for me to apply to enter the Castle District. After all, possessing such powerful light power, it's not surprising or unreasonable for me, as a Prophecy-type Mage, a spellcaster, to want to go in and see it."
Just as he said, the reason he was so confident he could enter the Castle District was because the Torch Tower was simply too powerful. The light power permeating it, which was a mage's power, astonished even him.
Or rather, for any mage with a spellcaster inheritance, it was quite astonishing, and they would want to continue to examine its magical structure, magical circuits, and the mysteries of magic.
Therefore, this excuse was very natural, and it also fit his identity as a mage. Even as a Prophecy-type Mage, it was consistent with his identity to want to go in, study, or gain some inspiration.
It was through this excuse that Zhang Bo could bring the Magic Crystal Ball into the Torch Tower and then place the crystal ball inside the Castle District.
This way, as long as the teleportation village on the Magic Crystal Ball was opened, the pre-prepared soldiers could be directly teleported into the Castle District through the Magic Crystal Ball.
Then they could launch a rapid surprise attack.
Furthermore, Zhang Bo had another plan: he wanted to use the excuse that the light magic item also needed light magic fluctuations to be activated, so that the light magic item could also enter the Castle District.
Similarly, Zhang Bo would also find a way for the magic item with the natural aura to enter the Castle District.
This way, each of the three magic items would be a teleportation gate. As long as they could activate the teleportation gates, they could suddenly attack the entire Castle District from three different locations.
This would produce a very good effect.
This sneak attack would also cause immense damage to Deherim.
And if possible, beheading Shen Mu on the spot would directly plunge Deherim into a state of disarray without command, making it easier for their troops to enter and cause internal destruction.
Moreover, it's important to know that in the Town Area, Zhang Caidong and the Blue Star Humans would also cause a commotion, creating unrest within the Town Area and tying up a large number of human soldiers' attention.
Most crucially, at night, the Skeleton Legion from the Black Arrow Tower Seventh Dynasty would pour out from the underground tunnels, continuously surrounding the entire Deherim.
With these three simultaneous attacks, no matter how strong Deherim was, it would fall into a state of chaos in a short time, giving him an opportunity.
Thus, with this self-satisfied emotion, Zhang Bo returned to Deherim. However, just as he reached the east gate and was about to enter, he saw Manid and a portion of the human soldiers had arrived there again.
And they began to draw the outlines of some buildings on the ground with white lime, as well as the outline of a city wall about three meters wide.
"Indeed, are they preparing to rebuild the city walls and expand the town's area again?" Zhang Bo pondered this. He had already guessed this before, so it didn't exceed his expectations.
After all, surveying the space was for expanding the construction area. Deherim's Town Area was already quite crowded, so it was only natural for them to start expanding it.
It did not prove Zhang Bo's prediction wrong.
Instead, Zhang Bo didn't feel much joy in his heart now just because his prediction was accurate.
Because the key to success or failure lay tonight. (End of Chapter)
