They discuss on their offer and what Zora want.

And they agree with Zora.

.

But they got conflict, when Zora wanted to kill six people, one of them was who accused Zora as a spy before.

(Five from Long and one from Zi Mi group) (Long mean Zi Mi opposite group.)

.

At that time, A scout from Zi Mi carried a new that,

"Lui Feng group that sold us out."

(Lui Feng was one of Long, they run away before.)

.

When people notice that Long side people were trying to harm them and six people before were nowhere to be found.

They run away toward enemies group.

.

They wanted to chase and kill them but Zora told them,

"Now what more important was move away from here."

.

people starting to move out,

"Zora are you not coming?"Yang Yin ask.

"I needed to finish my plan, you all go ahead. But rest at end of the swamp around 10 miles from here. I be there in no time." Z

.

"Anyway you all are so slow."

Zora is always proud of his speed.

.

Many people around there heard it and twisted their faces.

Yang Yin snare,

But something light up in his head.

.

"Ya, you are faster but when I changed into Metal Warrior form I could help carrying many people and run but you could only carry a child."

Yang Yin retort him.

.

Yang Yin arrows hit Zora a weak point.

.

Zora position change winner place to loser place.

And his face change smile into twist.

.

Everyone twist faces become a blooming flower.

.

This war should not end like that,

.

Zora gently pat on Yu Rou and

Zora told them back,

.

"I only wanted to carry Yu Rou, that don't mean I could not carry many." he lie.

.

"hahahaha….." a laugh come out as many people notice that he lie.

"kekekeke..." Yu Rou giggle again.

But Zora did not knew why she laugh.

He did not care why as long as she happy that ok for him.

.

So, "CU all I am going."

Zora starts to move his way too,

Zora wanted to kill the one who told back to him before but he did not have unlimited AP.

His AP still haven't refill yet and he needed to reopen water stream and he needed to fight.

.

"GeGe are you heavy carrying me?" Yu Rou ask him from his back.

She did not leave him even if he told her to go with other.

.

"Nope, never."Z

"Oppa you lie."

Yu Rou shout and punch him on his back with her small fist.

.

"Hehehehehe."Zora could only laugh,

He lied even if he knew that he could not lie.

.

They reach at a stream,

.

Zora hold his both hand and pray.

.

"I am sorry for all who rely on this stream. This time I would not have time to block this channel again. And all the innocent lives I killed here."

.

Zora knew there were many lives lost here because he made swamp and he fought.

That why he never wanted to claim that he is hero.

.

After that he made a channel again.

...…

When he arrived at the end of swamp, he saw a group but not all people arrived here yet.

And still at night time.

He sleep again to refill his AP.

…...

When he woke up,

the sun is already shine brightly in the sky same as other days in here.

But this time food were ready,

He saw Xiao Yu beside him sitting and looking everywhere.

And three small rabbits were not here anymore.

"Have you already cleaned up?"

"Emmm..."

"Have you eaten anything?"

"Breakfast."

"Are you hungry now?"

"Enn. Ennn..."

she shook her head and say no.

.

"Rabbits?"

"I gives it to Ye Lin."

"Should I run away?" Zora asked her.

.

Her ability, he thought something else before and it was wrong. Now what is her ability?

"Nope."

"Ok than let fight."

.

And he looks at the muddy swamp and smiles were came out from Zora,

The swamp was not like normal swamp with only water and mud.

There were forest before so some big tree were still standing tall while some already collapse and some bush were still there.

Ground was not too soft to suck everything down to bottom.

.

To make it simple, it was really messy.

The swamp is really beautiful in Zora eyes but it is really ugly in other people eyes.

.

Some people already left and people who stay here were ready to fight.

Master Gu, Ye Lin and old granny were already left as he told them to go.

.

But Yu Rou was like a house gecko and glue on him, he could not leave her.

.

So he only have Two ways, one run away and second fight with her.

.

She told him not run away,

As he did not have a choice, he decided to fight.

.

That would made him harder in fight but he did not knew exactly why she did not listen.

And she did not say any.

.

He walked toward the group and he saw Zi Mi, Yang Yin, Luo Zhan and other.

"Look like everyone ready?" Z

"Now we would discuss our stagey." Z

.

"Before that is there anyone knew enemies ability?" Z

"I knew some," Luo Zhan answer him.

.

1. Four meters tall humanoid but it has big 4 arms with sabres end.

His strongest ability is spin chop he could chop around where his hand could spread out.

But very dangerous ability.

And he did not use it normally.

Because after he chopped he collapse for 10 mins.

King of Wai Lord rank.

"That why he needs horse." Z

.

2. Pangolin, high around 3 meters but 15 meter longs, it strong skill is just roll but fast and destroy everything in it path and went back.

He is a betrayer of Ting Long.

His weakness is he could not change the direction that was crowd control ability.

.

3. Dog lower body with human upper and four dogs legs, two hand.

Scary evil head and teeth.

His head is most important part and it was round like a ball, big mouth.

His strong skill is capture.

His hand extend and capture. And bite. He is a mercenary.

.

"That one is danger for me. How fast his hand when it capture? Speed is like an arrow or a bullet?" Z

"It is like an arrow. Not too fast like bullet." LZ answered.

"Emmm…. Ok anyway he is still dangerous for me." Z

.

All that three were Lord rank. and there were ten Knight rank.

But there were another one dangerous from Knight rank.

He shot fiery stone, like meteor and his AOE is 10 meters radius, he could cast it 30 meters away from him.

He is an another betrayer of Ting Long.

.

"Ok, from that data, two of them would got problem in muddy swamp. Most dangerous was, Dog Centaur and that caster." Z remarked it.

.

"So normal people stay far away than 30 meters and scatter."

.

His plan was so simple,

"I will tell you all again, we are going to make them delay so that we could run."

.

"We are going to attack them at middle of the route when they were tired from travel."

.

"The main thing here is,

first we will ambush and kill them when they were in their human body."

.

"And second I would be the one at attacking head on, you all stay back and just fight off someone who pass from me."

"Zi Mi cast your magic if you think it is ok. But don't hit me with that."

.

In reality is not a game, magic hit everyone and every attacked hit other without choosing friend or foe.

.

And third, after first and second attack, we fall back and we would fight them in guerrilla system to make them harder to travel along the way.

.

And finally you all started to run away from enemies, I would delay them and run later.

.

"And healer please save at least one heal for me. However it is. I am the one who direct fight with them, so I am sure I needed it and I deserved it."

Zora asked them to save some for him.

.

"Don't worry we would save it for you." Zi Mi answer.

And everyone knew it, fighting alone to Thirteen, is so hard.

But they could not fight at Zora place too.

.

"Yu'er why don't you still with us? Your Oppa would get problem with carried with you and fighting?" Qin Yu asked her.

.

"She don't want to, we already tried." Zi Mi answers instead of everyone.

.

"And.."Z

"Is there anyone have any idea?"Z

.

"Can I ask something?" Tian Yun ask.

"Not only you, but everyone can ask and share all your idea.

I don't want anyone risk their lives without knowing what was a head.

This is the fighting and killing other lives with risking our lives.

So everyone who have idea or question ask now.

I could not explain when I am in fight."

Zora told them to think.

.

And he continue.

"I am not a god that who could make perfect plan. So I needed to listen what are all your idea too."

.

"OK" Tian Yun started.

"When the enemy arrived at the started of them swamp they would rest before they come in?" TY

"YES, If I were them I would rest for sure." Z

.

"Why don't we go toward other end, and start the ambush to them without letting them a rest?" TY

.

"Good question but…

First… we have to go through all the swamp, for that we would be tired too.

.

Second main thing was if I were them, I would went back far and fight with you on hard ground.

At that time, even if they were tired, do you think we can win easily?

If we did not follow them and they would go back and rest there.

And that time what are we going to do?" Z

.

Tian Yun got his answer so he stop.

.

"Why don't we fight here when they arrived here, they would tired too?

If we go to mid way in the swamp and we will be tired too?" Luo Zhan question it.

Everyone was nodding their head.

.

"Ya another good questions. And I am too not sure this time, I would answer with question."

"When they arrived here how tired they were? There were thirteen warrior do you think we could stop them coming on the hard land?

.

Even if we stopped twelve warriors and The 13th warrior escape on hard land,

And than do you think The 13th warrior would do?

The 13th warrior would just make a peace with us or kill everyone around?

.

There were normal gunner and mage here. If he went into them and kill them, there would be many lives lost?

.

But in the swamp they would fight with metal form, it were heavy and that would make them more sink in the mud.

.

In middle of swamp they were very hard to run away from me. Z

If someone think he could stop all of them here, I would follow."

Zora stop and wait but everyone know they could not stop all of them.

.

Every country and war, they all calculate profit and lost on every situation.

.

Same as here, their lost here were more than Zora plan, so everyone understand what they should do.

There were no question so Zora continue,

.

"For that we go in toward the middle swamp, I had already planned, when we started to go in you all would eventually knew." Z

"And is there anymore question?" Z

.

"Yes, there was something confuse me." Qin Xing (Were Goat, Heavenly smasher) started a question.

"go ahead." Z

"I heard that you knew this place from the enemy, am I right?" Weregoat

"Ya." Z

"So why don't they knew about that place and if they knew about this place, how would they coming in the trap? It isn't." Weregoat

.

Now everyone interested in that question. And looking at Zora for his answer.

.

But they were missing many thing.

"That is interesting question but, I would like to ask you many questions." Z

.

"First, you all across this place yesterday and is there anyone notice that there were a swamp before?" Z

"There were no swamp before and you made it." Captain LZ

.

"If you knew that, this place could be made into swamp, and why don't they knew it too?" Lan Qin Yu (healer)

"Next question for all of you, you all pass through before what did you all notice about soil, tree, stone?" Z

"That.."Song Zi Mi (Princess of Ting Long) but before she finished it.

"Wait a bit, let me finished my questions." Z

.

"And you all came here from your city, anyone remember what terrain you pass through?

Or what kind of soil you step on it?

Or at your living city what kind soil at there?" Z

.

"And at around your city what kind of tree were mainly grow or what kind of mountain and that built with what kind of stone?"

"Now answer, anyone knew all or some?" Z

.

There were some answer.

"I don't knew any."

"I know one because of I trip with stone."

"I know one too but I did not knew all."

Everyone answer one after another,

.

"OK, that is the answer and!!!. am I right?"

,

Z continue

Zora frown

And with the serious voice,

He try to talk,

Everyone was more intense looking at Zora,

.

"Do you know?…..., if you asks me that….., do I knew all of this?" Z

Everyone nodded their head,

they wanted to knew that Zora knew all of it.

"I will answer...." Z

.

"Nope."

Zora post his hand like 'give up' position and answered them no.

.

Everyone felt like thunder stuck at them, they were stuck, stop, and face twisted.

They were looking forward the answer like,,,

.

'Zora know many or all of it.'

They wanted to laugh and cry but don't know which one they would choose.

.

"?????" Zora confuse too,

after looking at them.

.

"What!!! don't tell me you think I know all?" Z

"I am just an another human, how could I know all of it?"

.

"I just happened to sat down on that ground, than luckily I found out about the soil and I had some experience about that soil." Z

"To make it simple, I am lucky, that all." Z

.

"Hahahah…."

Don't know who started the laugh but everyone laugh.

.

Zora face turn black,

They all laughing at him because he was telling the truth.

.

"OKOK, Stop laughing."

Zora decided to torture them with many question for laughing at him.

"Another Question, for if they know it is trap here." Z

.

"If they knew there is a trap there, what are they going to do?" Z

.

Some of them answer,

"They would stop?"

"They would turn back?"

"They would find an another way?"

There were many answers,

.

"This it is!! the answer is already there." Z

.

"What do you mean, if we could not trap them mean all our effort came to naught?"

Lan Qin Yu (healer)

.

"No, this is it. I got it." Luo Zhan (captain RG, Royal heavenly Lion.)

Luo Zhan shouting while he is looking around.

.

"But they would come into trap anyway."

Wu Yang Yin (general, The guardian)

.

"Ya, I got it now, but they would come even if they knew it was a trap."

Song Zi Mi.

.

"Could you explain?" Lan Qin Yu (healer) told toward Zora.

.

"What was the main thing that are we trying to do to enemies now? To kill?, to win the war?, to stop?, to delay?" Z

.

"Ohhh, got it." Lan Qin Yu (healer) finally got the answer.

The main thing what they were doing is to delay the enemies or stop the enemies here.

Not for killing, or to win a war.

.

"Any more question?" Z

"I think your plan is the best for our situation as we were so weak compare to enemy." YY

"With your plan, I think we could flee from them safely." Yang Yin said.

.

"I hope so too." Zora answer while looking at swamp.

.

"OK, if no question let make ready." YY told all of them.
