The sniper team was moving across the Fertile Plains, to the north of the Western Region .

Guided by Sylvie, they quickly reached their assigned position, in a grove of trees, far away from First Army's position .

According to the General Staff's plan, they would take care of any enemies within five kilometers in order to protect First Army without being spotted . Given that, the team had to stay away from the army, in case that some Devilbeasts spotted the soldiers on the plains when the weather was clear .

After all, there were more than 1,000 soldiers in the army . When moving across the plain, it was easy to notice them, even from 10 kilometers away .

When the sniper team set out, the First Army soldiers stopped marching and camouflaged themselves .

The sniper team included multiple witches to ensure its agility and flexibility . Lightning and Maggie formed the Flight Squad and the other witches were in the Ark Squad . They would work together to confuse and eliminate enemies to cover the movement of the First Army . All the soldiers were dressed in special camouflage uniforms which were called "jungle camouflage" . They were dyed with strange colors and made from special materials .

Lightning and Maggie highly praised the camouflage uniforms . According to them, when they looked down from the sky, they could not easily discern the soldiers and after the soldiers stopped moving, they seemed to disappear .

Andrea also wore such a uniform .





But she did not like it at all .

It was not well tailored and completely without a fitted shape . Wearing such clothes, everyone looked the same . The brown and green color seemed to be daubed on the uniform casually and its fabric was as rough as the bark of a tree . If it had not been for the special lining made by Soloya, her skin would have been scratched by the uniform . She wondered where His Majesty found this crudely made material .

However, she would never complain about it no matter how much she hated it . As a noble lady, she had to remain elegant in all circumstances and more importantly, she did not want to give Ashes a chance to mock her .

"She'll tease me mercilessly about being picky and say that I'm still too fragile . She'll argue that my trip to the Kingdom of Dawn must have fed my arrogance . I can clearly predict what she's going to say and how she's going to say it . "



"I was the one who made a vital contribution to our success in subduing the Kingdom of Dawn . While I was fighting, she was just lounging around Lady Tilly doing nothing . "

Sylvie's voice interrupted Andrea's thought . "The demons are only 35 kilometers away from us . We must get ready . Let's rise to the ground . "

"Roger, going up now . The barrier will be lifted in five seconds . Please watch out for the impact," Margie replied .

"Oh, yeah . That's the tone I like!" Lightning shook her fists excitedly and said . "You sound so professional . What a fast learner you are . "





"Did I? Thank you . " Margie touched her head bashfully . She might have never heard such a praise back in the church .

Andrea could not help holding her head and thought, "How come such a cool, crisp tone sounds professional? And where's the impact? When the ark disappeared, we just shook a little before standing firmly on the ground because of our inertia . This kind of impact can't even compete with the effect caused by Ashes' roars . "

"Now it's time for the Flight Squad to get ready . " Lightning gave everyone a thumbs up, put on her goggles, and then leaped up . "The runway has been cleared . The green light is on . Lightning, taking off!

"Maggie, taking off!" With these words, Maggie transformed into a goshawk and followed Lightning . They soon disappeared into the clouds .

"What's a runway? Some road specially built for running?" Amy looked around, feeling puzzled . "Where's the green light?"

"They probably learned these terms during their new training," Phyllis who came to protect the Ark Squad tilted her head and said . "I've heard His Majesty say them in the castle . They may be some technical words or expressions for flight training . However, besides the girls, I also saw Wendy and Anna during the training . It's a little strange . "

"What? Does that mean witches without flying ability could also learn to fly?"

"I don't know . "

"If I can learn it, what should I say to announce that I'm going to fly up?" Amy touched her chin and said . "How about . . . Amy, healing magic?"





"I like the term you created . " Sharon's eyes shone with excitement . "Come on, make up a term for me!"

"Hey, be quiet . Don't disturb Miss Sylvie . She's tracking the enemies . " Phyllis said smilingly .

"Got it!"

Watching the girls, Andrea could not help sighing . According to the plan, in the following week, they would get farther and farther away from the main force of the First Army . As an isolated team, they would advance toward the northwest to mislead the demons . As they penetrated deeper into the demons' territory, they could only rely on their own strength to evade or defeat their enemies .

It was going to a hard journey for the sniper team . Andrea could hardly understand why the girls seemed so happy and relaxed .

Suddenly, someone patted her shoulder, she turned around and saw Iffy who showed her an"I understand you" look .

She felt comforted by this .

"We've no choice . . . because combat beyond normal visual range consumes a huge amount of magic power, we have to bring many assistant witches, such as Amy and Sharon, to provide us with magic power . This is the only way we can shoot continuously . "

At this moment, she was really impressed by Countess Spear, who remained silent this whole time and looked more peaceful than her . She admired the way this great, noble lady dealt with the situation .

"Let's get started . " Andrea took a deep breath and said . "The demons will enter our range any minute . "

"Wait a second," Spear suddenly whispered . "I'm old and feel a little sick after traveling by the ark . "

Andrea was speechless .

Fortunately, she did not have to exert much efforts to set up the anti-Devilbeast sniper rifle . Roland had minimized the installation steps by dividing the weapon into two parts, the gun and the tripod . Ashes and Phyllis had carried them the entire journey .

Andrea quickly got the rifle set up . She found that this sniper rifle without a scope turned out to be easier to operate when compared to a bolt rifle she had used before . She inserted a palm-sized bullet into the chamber of the rifle and nodded to Camilla Dary .

Camilla closed her eyes and extended her hands to touch Andrea and Sylvie .

Instantly, Andrea saw the world differently . Everything within her sight was distorted . She felt as if her soul was pulled out of her body, or another soul squeezed into her's . This weird change always made her feel a little dizzy, but after repeated training, she was able to get used to it and managed to quickly focus on targets that were far away .

Sylvie immediately sensed what she wanted .

The next moment, Andrea could see the world through Sylvie's eyes . The trees and grassland were instantly replaced by a sea of white clouds .

And she saw three black dots flying in the sky .
