"I think that's about enough. If it's a fight you're looking for Syradil I can gladly spar with you. I don't think you need to provoke my friend now do you?" s.h.i.+ro asked as she tapped her finger on the table.

Feeling the pressure from her, Syradil understood that s.h.i.+ro didn't mind dissolving their agreement immediately. She had the power to back it up after all.

Deep down, Syradil wasn't sure if she could actually win in a fight between the two of them.

"Fine fine. I'm only joking. But let's get to the main topic now. So far, I've come across three kinds of soldiers." Syradil said as she sat down on her chair.

"First, is the scouts. High mobility, good at evasion, hard to pin down. However, they have virtually 0 attack power. They have a skill that lets them fade between realms and go invisible and can relay information back to the base the second they see it. I'm guessing they act similar to your cameras." Syradil said while glancing at s.h.i.+ro.

"The second are soldiers that I've found, they are what I like to call Suiciders. Very high power, ignores most defences. Very fast but paper like defence. You can kill one with your bare hands but once you do, they'll explode using all of the mana they have within them. And here's the main problem. There are a lot of these f*ckers. If you kill one and prevent it from exploding, the energy will get transferred to the closest Suicider and they'll become stronger.

"Last but not least, is the Supporters. Flying units that will hit you with ranged crowd control and lower your defence so that the Suiciders can kill you easily. They are hard to spot and have virtually 0 attack power as well. They are just there to make your life harder. Very annoying. I would suggest wiping them out first but killing them is no easy task. I don't know what skill they have but when they're not casting a spell, they're practically invulnerable. There is only a small window of chance to kill them and that is when they cast." Syradil explained while s.h.i.+ro brought up a world map.

"Are you able to show us where you fought them? Though I have a slight idea." s.h.i.+ro said as waved her finger and the map started to turn.

Seeing the time, they realised that she was showing them what happened a few hours ago.

Suddenly, a breath attack bigger than New York appeared on the map.

"Bingo. If you rewind the footage, you'll be able to see what they look like." Syradil smiled.

Rewinding the video, s.h.i.+ro could see the army that surrounded Syradil.

The Scouts are androgenous beings with black mist enveloping their entire body and large elongated spider legs protruding from their back. From the video, s.h.i.+ro could tell that they were faster than her. If she wanted to kill them, rely on ranged attacks.

She didn't need to look for the Suicider since there was one in the cage next to them. It was thin and practically had no flesh on its back. The skin stretched across the bones and there seemed to be armour under the skin. On their chest, purple and red lights would pulse between their ribs like a beating heart. They have no eyes and deathly white skin. Two rows of sharp teeth and a crown of bones sticking out of their skull. This crown seemed to twitch every so often and retract back into their head before protruding out again.

Their use was unknown for now.

Finally, the supports were hooded figures with no lower half. Instead of legs, it was just a collection of dense black mist. Protruding from their back was a pair of skeletal wings with purple and red energy where the membrane should be.

"Hmm… how many other units are there?" s.h.i.+ro asked since the army would definitely be more than just these three. Otherwise how would they destroy a majority of Earth.

"Well there are quite a few. And I don't have a name for all of them. For now, think of them as adventurers. There are tanks, ranged units, berserkers and even some strange units that are similar to the trebuchets." Syradil shrugged.

"I see… are there any changes to the ambient mana when they appear or is it just instant?"

"There's a slight s.h.i.+ft but it doesn't last long. So you might as well just call it instant." Syradil shrugged.

Hearing this, s.h.i.+ro clicked her tongue.

"I haven't detected anything from the satellites so I'm guessing they're teleporting them in rather than just catapulting them from s.p.a.ce."

"Mn, I'm guessing the holes that you've poked into the barrier allows them to teleport small amounts of their army. If not, we would still be ignorant of their arrival. I'm not sure if they'll send any more but it'll be good if we go deal with them now."

"I'll have the defence system of the city in full swing just in case they do attack. Same with the satellite. They should be able to deal with them with relative ease. As for the attack force against Rokarn, what are your inputs about this? You faced them before, after all." s.h.i.+ro asked.

"A smaller party would be optimal. The main thing you have to remember is that this isn't just a fight against a large number of monsters. The main problem is Rokarn himself. With strong people like him, you know that numbers don't work." Syradil said as s.h.i.+ro nodded her head.

"True. Alright, I think we'll stick with the main party. Misu is a must since her authority as the Undead Queen can help us create an army using Rokarn's units." s.h.i.+ro said as Misu nodded her head.

In the end, they decided on taking anyone that was higher than level 700 including Aarim even though she was level 695.

Koji and Li Jian had to stay behind since they were only level 650 and were in too much danger to continue despite their cla.s.s advantages. While they would get bonuses from s.h.i.+ro's skills and Divine Court t.i.tles, there was simply too much at risk.

The final party consisted of the following members.

s.h.i.+ro, Attie, Yin, Lisandra, Estrella, Nimue, Iziuel, Nan Tian, Aarim, Helion, Keiko, Silvia, Chen Yu, Misu, Esil, Revel and Syradil.

"You really think we can fight back a demi G.o.d and his army with a party of 17?" Silvia asked as she was a little unsure.

They were powerful yes and had multiple skills that could demolish an army. But the problem was the lack of information. There were too many unknown factors. If they knew more than she would be more confident about their chances.

"Do you have any allies that are higher than level 700?" s.h.i.+ro asked as Syradil shook her head

"Except for my pet summon I don't have anyone else."

Hearing this, s.h.i.+ro scratched her head.

Honestly, if it wasn't for Lyrica and the others, she would probably be solo like Syradil with the exception of perhaps Nimue, Attie, Yin and Lisandra. Without Lyrica, she wouldn't have gone to the Elven Capital and find Iziuel.

"So what's the plan now then?" Syradil asked while leaning back on her chair.

"I think I'll do some experimenting on this monster first. After that I want to fight their scouting party to get some information about their power. Once that's done, we should be pretty much set to challenge them. If things do go south, I'll try to teleport us back so that we can regroup. I'll also see if I can get any information using my satellites but it'll be hard." s.h.i.+ro explained as Syradil nodded.

"Contact me once you're done, I'm going to do some preparations of my own."

Nodding her head, s.h.i.+ro watched as Syradil disappeared into a portal.

Ending the meeting, s.h.i.+ro made her way to a reinforced room with the Suicider. Following behind her, Nan Tian was checking up on the monster's bio scans to see if anything was off.

Noticing that this monster doesn't even 'Eat Mana'. In fact, it has no body functions at all. It was as if this monster was a golem.

s.h.i.+ro had noticed this due to the fact that once it was in a no mana zone, it would poweroff. Which also explains why it was oddly silent during the meeting.

Narrowing her eyes, s.h.i.+ro opened the cage.

*BANG!!!

Springing awake, the monster glared at s.h.i.+ro and opened its mouth, ready to fire a shot at her.

However, s.h.i.+ro was not going to let him.

Snapping her finger, a needle appeared in front of the monster and pierced into its chest.

Collapsing to the ground once more, it lost its functions.

"Let's open it up I suppose." s.h.i.+ro said as she created an operating table next to him.

Placing him on the table, she created a scalpel and started to dissect him.

Occasionally, she would remove the needle to see how he works internally before putting the needle back.

'Hmm… seems like most of the monsters are just golems. They're not controlled remotely but there should be a connection of sorts between them.' s.h.i.+ro thought to herself as she had an idea.

She wanted to see if she could use this golem to remotely observe Rokarn's army.
