"I say, brother Mage, let's retreat. This father still wants to live a little longer! As you can see, there are five professionals in each patrolling team, and neither of us is an assassin, so we can't take them out silently, and if the alarm goes off, then all the professionals of this whole camp will come to kill us."
Kane spread his hands and said to Punk,
"Although I don't know if I am a good mouse or not, they are definitely a group of good cats."
Kane said helplessly at last after looking at the security of the army camp! There was actually no flaw in defence of this camp, and the enemy also looked like they were well-versed in this kind of situation. Although the number of manpower assigned to patroling was not that large, it was just enough to complete a flawless defence.
Now Punk's group was hiding behind the bush. It felt like a mouse trying to pull a turtle but didn't know how to get hold of it.
(Note: Idiom- a turtle's shell is smooth and hard, and after it retracts its head and feet into the shell, the mouse does not know where to bite before dragging it away. "no clue where to start, when faced with an unexpected situation")
"We will wait. Wait until some other team becomes impatient and takes action first!"
Punk had now given up on the infiltration plan. It was almost impossible for a mage to sneak into and then set fire on the granary under the vigilant patrol of a trainee-level professional and four apprentice-level professionals. Now Punk planned to find an opportunity when the other teams created chaos inside the camp!
"I say, brother mage, those guys are not stupid. How can they be willing to become canon fodders for others?"
Kane had already boringly drawn circles on the ground with the armour on his fingers and seemed to had no faith in Punk's plan.
"Bang!!!"
Almost as soon as Kane's words fell, a huge explosion sounded, and a faint light of burning fire came from the area close to the enemy's granary.
In the swaying shadows, the entire camp was like the calm water of a lake being smashed by a huge stone, and the originally quiet and peaceful environment was replaced by noise and clutter. A sharp alarm rang from the camp, which pierced the entire night sky like the miserable howling of some animal. All the soldiers and professionals rushed in the direction where the flames rose!
"Don't tell me there really are such unredeemable fool!"
Kane looked at the fire in the distance with a dazed expression. He quickly picked up the lance from the ground, and a slight battle qi began to entangle his armour and lance like a snake.
When Punk saw the fire, his pupils shrank slightly. He resupplied his mage armour with mana and took a defensive stance for any unexpected situation.
"Do you really think there are really such fools among the apprentice-level professionals of Konola City?"
Punk said to Kane in a gloomy and cold tone.
"Yes~"
Kane turned his head towards Putt discretely while smiling hysterically.
"..."!
"Okay, okay, don't you put on such dead face~ at least there is one fool, and don't tell me otherwise, or I will start to doubt life~."
Kane said while still smiling cynically. Simultaneously his battle qi started to surge violently.

"We can all see how commender Lunka has deployed an impermeable defence, Is there really such a fool among those professionals who were willing to sacrifice themselves for everyone else! And if not, then who caused this chaos?"
Punk regained his calm expression. He gently touched the ruby on the head of his Staff and then seemed to questioned himself.
"It doesn't matter who did it! Our mission is done. I am leaving."
After saying this in a serious manner, Kane jumped out of the bushes, rolled on the ground lightly, and ran into the dark. At the same moment, Punk also cast a swiftness spell and retreated through the pre-planned route with Kane at a breakneck speed.
"Uhh! Ah!"
"????"
Putt had a confused expression on his face; He still had not recovered from the joy of discovering the fire. In his mind, he thought that "He will follow the seniors and rush into the enemy camp, kill seven enemies in seven strokes(Idiom), and then triumphantly return like the heroes under the sun".
But the reality was that two seniors had said something, turned around and ran away. Completely different from the style of the heroic knight from the novels. Watching Punk and Kane leave, Putt also subconsciously started to chase them, and his fantasy of heroes completely shattered in his heart.
Punk and Kane didn't have time to pay attention to Putt's idiotic thoughts. The enemy's tightly guarded camp was in chaos, and most probably, it was made by themselves!
Thinking of this, Punk had an impulse to swear. An enemy, who planned to rely on the material gap to bring down Konola City, would definitely deploy their best defences on the granary. So, although it was hard, but not impossible to find a flaw and complete the task. After all, according to Punk's thought, the enemy's patrols would mainly be composed of ordinary people. How could those proud professionals be willing to do "low-level" tasks such as patrols, so a lax defence was almost inevitable! Now not only the camp was strictly guarded by elite troops and experienced professionals, but it seemed like it was also a huge trap. Where they actually created chaos on their own to attract the Konola city's professionals. Now all the professional, blinded by the reward, would definitely take advantage of this "great opportunity" to march towards the granary where possibly heavy ambushes were set.
And if official-level Lunka joined hands, it most certainly would be the end of those Konola city's professionals, which had more then 20 trainee-level professionals, equivalent to half of the Konola City's military power,
"Too inexperienced!"
Punk secretly complained in his heart that he was not comprehensive enough and reminded himself to never forget this lesson!
"Those guys are really unlucky! if they all dispersed; even Lunka, an official-level warrior, can't catch all of them, but now~hehe, a group of big fishes has taken the bait by their own free will~."
Kane had a smiling expression on his face while saying such heartless word. He was running at a very high speed. Although this kind of speed was even a little faster than the sports car on Earth, it did not consume much of his physical strength!
"But in this way, their granary will be completely destroyed. After all, those guys still can do some damage before their death."
Punk spoke at a very fast speed because of the effect of the swiftness spell.
The scenery under the night sky passed quickly in Punk's vision. The afterimages of the trees were like the ghosts hidden in the darkness, silently roaring in the deep shadow while showing their fangs and claws............
Suddenly, Punk stopped. As he was moving very fast, the sudden stop blew away a cloud of dust from the loose ground! In the faint dark night, Punk's eyes were gleaming with blue light. Suddenly he moved to the left, and the Staff in his hand immediately blocked his chest!
"Ping!!!"
A clear trembling came from Punk's body, with the redhead of the Staff inlaid with rubies started to spin, like a fallen bird from a branch, in the dust on the ground. A blade shone with a cold green light, as if a dagger that was about to tear the entire night with one blow, flashed by the tip of his nose.

The fleeting green streamer was sharp like fine silk, flashing with a cold light under the moon.
