Chapter 3375

    ---- Chapter 3375 Night fell, and darkness covered everything. Inside Cliffside Gate, the strike team had already assembled. Cormac and Asher personally led 500 elite fighters, preparing to circle around the Three Empires'' allied forces and lie in wait behind them, Meanwhile, Andrew would take a much smaller group, slip quietly out of Cliffside Gate, andunch a sudden assault on the enemy''s main camp. Their job was to draw attention and create an opening for Cormac and Asher. Since this was a sneak attack, there could be no noise.


    The elites stood in formation inside Cliffside Gate, fully armed, yet not a single sound could be heard. Cormac whispered, "Andrew''s not here yet?" Asher was about to answer when they heard footsteps approaching. Andrew came through with Shiloh and Nyx at his sides, all three of them geared up and ready. Cormac smiled. "Are we good to move? Is Ms. Greene joining you too?" ---- Andrew nodded. "Shiloh wanted in. Honestly, having her with us is a major advantage." Cormac said nothing, but he knew well that Shiloh could help.


    After all, a martial artist at the peak of martial god level was an asset that could shift the oue of almost anything. The Cavendish royal family had actually tried to recruit Shiloh before, and she had turned them down t. Cormac had never pushed the issue, partly because he knew he did not have a clean edge over her in a fight, and partly because he had always chosen to keep things civil with the Greene family rather than stir up unnecessary trouble. Jakob was moving out with Cormac''''s group.


    However, as he lined up, his eyes drifted to the two women nking Andrew, both striking, both clearly formidable. Something twisted in his gut as he clenched his jaw and wondered when it would ever be his tum. Asher grinned over at Andrew. "Mr. Lloyd, does the split look good to you?" Andrew swept a quick eye over the 50 men the Cavendish royal family had assigned to his unit, then gave a short nod. "Works for me. Your 500 men need to move first since you''re taking the long way around.


    Once you''re almost in position, we''ll head out, ---- and from that point, we coordinate by signal." Cormac looked excited. "Perfect. We''ll take the lead!" He gave the order immediately, and 500 fighters ghosted out of Cliffside Gate without a whisper of sound. Cliffside Gate had been fortified thoroughly by the Cavendish royal family. Andrew did not need to worry about how they would circle behind the enemy or stay hidden. Cormac and Asher had that side covered better than he ever could.


    His own exit was guided by some of the family''s best, which meant getting out quietly was not a problem either. The real challenge woulde after the attack began, and they needed to retreat safely. Andrew did a final check of the formation, then moved to the front and looked at Nyx and Shiloh. "You two good?" Nyx waved him off. ''I''m perfectly fine. Not so sure about this one, though. Her legs looked alittle shaky earlier. Hope she can keep up." She let the implication hang in the air and shot Andrew a sharp look that said she knew exactly why.


    ---- Andrew pretended not to notice and turned to Shiloh with a casual smile. "You alright?" Shiloh''s cheeks went slightly pink, but her voice was calm. "If Nyx is fine, then I''m obviously fine." There was still a subtle rivalry between the two women Soon, under the cover of night, Andrew led the fifty men out of Cliffside Gate. The Three Empires'' allied forces were camped about 30 miles away. Their numbers were so massive that even from the walls of Cliffside Gate, you could make out the glow of their camp in the distance. "Mr.


    Lloyd, please follow us," a Cavendish expert said respectfully as he led the way. After rushing forward for some distance, Andrew realized they were taking a routepletely hidden from the enemy''s view. From there, circling to the enemy''s nk andunching a sudden strike would be much easier. Half an hourter, word came from Cormac that they were in position. Andrew''s group also reached their designated spot. Lying on a hillside, Andrew stared at the distant allied camp below.


    "If we charge directly, those several hundred yards in between ---- will expose all 50 of us," Nyx said quietly. She had fought many brutal battles overseas, so she instantly recognized the w in their position. If they could not get closer, the moment they moved, the enemy would spot them. Nheless, the whole point was to catch the enemy off guard. If they were discovered too early, the surprise attack would lose most of its impact. The Cavendish expert beside them whispered, "This is the closest we can get.


    Any other position would put us even farther away and make it worse." Everyone turned to look at Andrew. He thought for a moment, then said calmly, "Wait a little longer. It''s not like we don''t have options." The others were puzzled but said nothing, choosing to wait. Meanwhile, Nyx and Shiloh stood quietly off to the side together.
