Chapter 544: Clear Arrangements

Su Chen's mouth twitched. This was the first time he had encountered such a comical member of the Ghost Clan.

Was this particular Ghost Clan influenced by humans, or had they always been this comical?

No one could fathom the inner turmoil of this Seventh Order Ghost Clan. While he indeed possessed the strength of a Seventh Order Ghost Clan, his actual combat abilities were quite lacking.

Originally, he had been a servant in the household of a certain Ghost Clan Young Master, enjoying a life of luxury and privilege. It was this association that had elevated his current status and strength. Unfortunately, he had never participated in any battles, and despite his Seventh Order strength, he might not even be able to defeat a Sixth Order Ghost Clan in combat.

Most of the time, he relied on his superficial strength to intimidate others and coast through life.

After the Ghost Clan had captured most of the human territories, his Young Master had suddenly decided to occupy a human city. Due to his Young Master's high status, the request was granted, and he had naturally followed along, becoming the Deputy City Lord here.

During this time, his Young Master had been obsessed with various entertaining human games and novels, almost forgetting about his loyal subordinate. Though he wasn't careless, he had ordered the lower-ranking Ghost Clan members to maintain a tight defense around the entire city.

In his view, humans wouldn't voluntarily launch an attack on the Ghost Clan. However, he hadn't expected a massive human army to appear this time, catching him off guard.

A Seventh Order Ghost Clan, who had rushed into the city, shouted, "Young Master, something terrible has happened!"

However, no matter how many times he yelled, there was no response. He knew that his Young Master was likely engrossed in the games and had forgotten about his surroundings.

With all his might, he rushed into the City Lord's mansion within a short time and found his Young Master. He immediately used his trump card: he cut off the power supply!

Without power, the games naturally came to a halt.

The Young Master of the Seventh Order Ghost Clan, who had been mentioned earlier, was actually a First Grade Ghost King. Furthermore, he was a First Grade Ghost King who had reached the mid-Ninth Rank in strength!

No one could have anticipated that a First Grade Ghost King, rather than expanding territories outside, would hide in an inconspicuous city and play games.

If the high-ranking members of the Ghost Clan found out, they would probably be dumbfounded.

"Minion, do you know how much time I spent getting to this level? The crucial part is... I didn't save the game!" The Young Master's eyes were filled with terror, as if he were about to devour his subordinate.

"Young Master, humans are attacking!" the Seventh Order Ghost Clan shouted loudly.

Only now did the Ghost Clan's Young Master react, "Humans are attacking? Where did they find the courage?"

He couldn't help but wonder. Weren't the Ghost Clan always suppressing humans? How could humans proactively launch an attack against the Ghost Clan? Could it be that the ultimate showdown between humans and the Ghost Clan was about to begin?

Thinking this, the Ghost Clan's Young Master's face broke into a wicked smile. Despite being an indoorsy gamer, his strength was beyond question. He belonged to the ranks of the strongest in the Ghost Clan.

"How many people are outside?" Ghost Clan's Young Master stood up and casually asked.

"A lot, possibly around a hundred thousand," the Seventh Order Ghost Clan reported truthfully.

"Good timing, our food supply has been running low recently. Fresh provisions are being delivered to our doorstep; we shouldn't let them go to waste," Ghost Clan's Young Master licked his lips, savoring the thought.

Outside the city, Prince Hewlett's expression became somewhat unsightly. They had been bombarding the city walls with tank cannons for so long, yet the seemingly fragile walls still hadn't crumbled. It was unbelievable.

"Your Highness, it seems like something is emerging from the top of the city wall," an aide pointed and shouted.

Prince Hewlett squinted his eyes and indeed saw a series of patterns appearing on the seemingly crumbling wall. However, these weren't cracks; they were patterns!

Seeing these patterns, Prince Hewlett suddenly thought of the Ghost Patterns on the bodies of the Ghost Clan. How had those Ghost Patterns ended up on the city wall?

It wasn't just Prince Hewlett; Su Chen, who was watching the situation, was also curious. Could it be that the Ghost Clan had developed a new way to use Ghost Patterns?

In reality, it wasn't surprising at all. As the foundation of the Ghost Clan's formidable strength, it was hard to believe that they hadn't conducted research on Ghost Patterns. With years of research, they would undoubtedly make some progress and apply it to city walls, enhancing their defensive capabilities. Su Chen considered this a positive development.

"We can consider using them on various weapons. It seems Yun Ru's research project just got a new addition."

However, even though Ghost Patterns were powerful, they couldn't withstand Red Alert Weapons for too long. With a resounding boom, the city walls finally collapsed, revealing the Ghost Clan army behind.

"Your Highness, there are fewer than fifty thousand Ghost Clan on the other side. In terms of numbers, we have the advantage. I believe we can go all out this time without pretending," the aide suggested.

Prince Hewlett was already thinking the same thing. He immediately ordered his troops to attack and capture the city!

Airplanes, large cannons, tanks—all of these were standard equipment for the Red Alert Steel Tide. Despite being the Restoration Army, they possessed a significant arsenal of Red Alert Weapons, covering everything that Restoration Army should have, except for a few specialized Weapons.

Ghost Clan warriors roared as they charged toward the human forces. As long as they could withstand the bombardment of the shells and get close to the humans, the Ghost Clan's chances of victory would increase significantly.

Everyone knew that the Ghost Clan possessed strong physiques, and humans were no match for them even at the same level. Even if they were a higher tier, it wasn't easy to kill a Ghost Clan member. This was the most annoying aspect of the Ghost Clan.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The earth trembled as warriors roared. Prince Hewlett's expression remained calm. The first time he had witnessed this scene, he had been somewhat fearful, but now he was numb to it.

In his mind, the casualties in the Restoration Army were inconsequential as long as they could regain lost territory. This would further solidify his position, and one day, he, Prince Hewlett, would become a king.

By then, those who had looked down on him would pay the price!

Far away in the base, Su Chen raised an eyebrow. Was Hewlett becoming increasingly arrogant? He seemed to harbor ill intentions towards Su Chen. If it weren't for the fact that Psychic technology had already reached version 5.0, he might not have sensed it. After all, Hewlett was quite far away from him.

With the upgrade of Psychic technology versions, Su Chen discovered that Psychic technology was a powerful tool. This technology could be used not only on sentient beings but also on Weapons, making it extremely versatile.

When he was on Earth, the greatest limitation of Psychic power was its range. However, with the advent of version 5.0, the typical range no longer restricted Su Chen. Even if it were more than ten thousand kilometers away, Su Chen could still sense the malice Hewlett felt towards him. Of course, he didn't know the specifics.

"You're really asking for trouble. You might still have some use now, but when the time comes, I'll make clear arrangements for you."

A faint smile appeared on Su Chen's lips as he continued to watch the unfolding scene. (To be continued...)
