Similar moles had also been planted by the Holy Court within the ranks of the undead.

Both sides were playing a game, and both knew there were bad actors within their teams, so they were careful not to reveal too much specific information to the players.

At least for now, the Holy Court team was even more anxious than Yuan Jize and his group, as they had not received any news from Sadrick.

At this moment, Yuan Jize and his brother were lying in ambush in the distance, cautiously monitoring one of the Holy Court teams that was already showing signs of unrest.

The Holy Court team had already noticed that something was not right and seemed to be heading towards the Mork Sanctuary.

Trouble.

The two brothers exchanged a glance.

They calculated that only an hour had barely passed.

If they couldn't stabilize them…

As the two were pondering, a message came through Yuan Jize's survival radio.

Yuan Jize glanced down and said, "Brother, Tao and his brother sent a message saying that Sadrick and the Holy Court team he was following had originally agreed to act after an hour. Now that the time has arrived, the team leader has lost contact with Sadrick and feels that the situation is not good, so they are preparing to leave. He can't dissuade them."

That's terrible.

Yuan Jixian's heart sank.

"Forget it, let's first find a way to stop this team and prevent them from triggering a chain reaction with other teams."

"Okay!"

The disruption of one or two teams wouldn't be a major problem, at most it would cause some additional trouble for the final seal's destruction. However, if more teams successively encountered problems, it would be troublesome, and ultimately it might lead to the overall seal's failure to be destroyed.

Seeing the Holy Court team beginning to gather and gradually leave towards the right side of the basin, Yuan Jixian quickly set off, heading to conceal himself in advance at the exit on the right side of the basin, waiting for the team to enter the ambush zone and launch a surprise attack.

Huh!?

Just as the Holy Court team was about to leave the basin, suddenly, something seemed to happen within the team. They strangely stopped in place and looked towards the distant Mork Sanctuary.

What's going on?

Yuan Jixian and his brother couldn't help but look towards the area behind them.

Looking at the rear, both of them revealed surprised expressions in their eyes.

Since they had already seen the light beam, it meant that the commander's side was still under control. Their current rash departure would only affect the commander's subsequent plan.

"Return! Return the way we came! Set up a magic array and await instructions!"

"Yes! Understood!"

The team immediately returned to the central sealed area of the basin.

In the Holy Court team's view, the commander Sadrick had probably encountered some trouble while setting up the magic array, and was currently dealing with it.

The rising light beam was the best proof!

As long as the legion hadn't encountered an undead attack, the problem wouldn't be significant.

They would continue to wait patiently in place.

Seeing the Holy Court teams calm down again, Yuan Jize and his brother also breathed a great sigh of relief.

Thank goodness.

They didn't have to forcibly attack the team.

However…

The two of them couldn't help but exchange glances again, both seeing the suspicion revealed in each other's eyes.

Didn't Fang Heng say that it would take another two hours to complete the setup? It's only been less than an hour.

So fast?

What was going on with that holy light beam?

"Something's not right…"

Yuan Jixian looked at the light beam in the distance, a look of doubt also appearing in his eyes, "The power of the light beam seems to be stronger than Elder An Bu's description."

What's going on?

Yuan Jixian's brow furrowed even deeper.

The intensity of the light beam was very likely related to the strength of the sword sheath.

Was the strength of the sword sheath actually that much stronger than Teacher Tikas had predicted?

The two of them fell silent.

Regardless, if they wanted to trigger the holy seal, there was still a major problem to deal with.

It was also the point that they couldn't understand the most.

What method did Fang Heng have to gather thirty Holy Court believers to complete the ceremony?

Just as Yuan Jize was worrying about this, he suddenly noticed something and looked up towards the sky.

In the sky, a group of bats was flying towards the Holy Court team not far away.

Upon seeing the flock of vampires circling in the air, the Holy Court team immediately became agitated. The Holy Court team leader, with a grave expression, shouted to command the team, "It's the vampires! Quick! Activate the guardian magic array!"

Engema Empire, war front line.

After suffering heavy losses, the Holy Court retreated to defend.

The undead took advantage of the night to continue advancing, trying to expand their gains.

Small-scale skirmishes between the two sides had never stopped.

Suddenly, the giant holy light beam that emerged from the heart of the Engema Empire attracted the attention of everyone on both sides of the battlefield.

Holy light beam!

How could it appear in the heart of the Engema Empire!?

The undead players were startled upon seeing the holy light beam suddenly emerging from the rear.

Even from that far away, the players could still feel the holy power fluctuations emanating from the light beam.

Was it the Holy Court?

They clearly had the home-field advantage, yet suddenly such powerful holy power fluctuations emerged from the rear of the Engema Empire?

Was it related to the Holy Court legion that had previously invaded the empire?

Had their home been raided?

The situation was unclear, and the undead players immediately dared not continue to advance rashly, immediately consolidating their gains and beginning to retreat to defend.

Soon, the pursuit stopped, and the leaders of the major undead teams and forces gathered again at the base camp to discuss.

After the initial surprise and arguments, the players couldn't help but start arguing again.

The players had great differences of opinion, roughly divided into two factions.

One side believed that they needed to immediately return to the location of the light beam to investigate, otherwise they were likely to be ambushed by the Holy Court from the inside out, and they and the entire Engema Empire would be finished together!

The other side believed that the light beam was obviously a deliberate ruse by the Holy Court, and that fleeing at this time would fall into the Holy Court's trap, and might even be pursued by the Holy Court, suffering great losses.

Lord Danny did not participate in the debate between the two sides, but pondered with her head down, her eyes full of suspicion.

Holy Court!

Their previous attack into the heart of the Engema Empire was indeed plotting something!

The location where the holy light beam rose happened to be the Mork Sanctuary…

Lord Danny thought of the issue of the Mork Sanctuary that Fang Heng had happened to mention to her not long ago.

She hoped Fang Heng could make it in time!

At the same time, at the Holy Court's front-line headquarters camp.

Georgie Gonçalves, the commander-in-chief of the Holy Court sent to the Cheboreya game world and the leader of the Holy Court legion, stood outside the camp, looking at the holy light beam rising in the distance, his eyes thoughtful.

It was very strange.

The plan to attack the undead's hinterland to find the sword sheath this time was not proposed by him.

For him, the Holy Court's dispatched forces had an overwhelming advantage, and victory was only a matter of time.

However, the surprise attack plan could cause a lot of trouble for the undead. If it succeeded, it could save him a lot of time.

Even if it failed, it didn't matter.

So he didn't object to the plan either.

But at this moment, the holy power fluctuations erupting from the heart of the Engema Empire made him feel a hint of surprise.
