Chapter 1500 Dilemma
According to the usual script, since this Alice doesn’t take those who are causing trouble in the fortress seriously, it indicates that they do not pose any threat to them. The ease seen in the expressions of the high command from the fortress also suggests that they are quite satisfied with their progress.
Li Yao even suspects that even if the fortress was really destroyed, it wouldn’t have much of an impact on them.
This caused Li Yao to harbor some doubts, feeling that Alice’s vision was somewhat grand. However, Li Yao had too little information to make an accurate judgment.
Alice’s official profile provided by the faction was scant—identified as a faction leader, but with no specific profession mentioned.
It was only when Li Yao sensed the oscillation of the Dark Touch did he realize this person was the actual Divine Envoy. In fact, it made sense—were it not for being a Divine Envoy, Alice would not be an Earth Spirit or Dwarf and still manage to lead others so obediently here.
Moreover, discovering the Dark Touch should have been a very happy occasion, but this contradicted Li Yao’s plan.
With an opponent being a faction leader and a Divine Envoy, and not just a racial-class entity, even in one-on-one combat Li Yao couldn’t guarantee a complete victory over the adversary, not to mention the many high-level masters present.
To seize the Dark Touch was simply an unattainable goal. Li Yao had constantly run through various scenarios in his head and found it impossible to snatch the Dark Touch from the opponent’s hands.
Thus, Li Yao refocused on the mission at hand, moving ahead while observing, as he needed an opportunity. Perhaps after lifting the curse from the Green Dragons and rescuing the captives, the Green Dragons might initiate a counterattack that could present an opportunity.
Then the question arises, upon meeting him, they wanted to show their greatest secret to him within less than a quarter of an hour.
