Chapter 2137 A Symphony of Coordination
âJust listen to me, and everything will work out!â Magnusâ lips curled into a smile brimming with unshakable confidence,

âWhen you lure the enemies to the peak on the left, thereâs a narrow trail at the two oâclock direction leading to the central ridge. Take that path to retreat, then head toward the five oâclock direction to the rightâside mountain. Midway up the slope, you can start the fire.â
As Magnus laid out his plan, Solana and Quintus couldnât help but exchange a glance, their expressions a mixture of doubt and curiosity.
âMagnus, how do you even know the lay of the land here? Donât tell me youâve been here before. You arenât secretly tied to the Five Poison Sect, are you?â Quintus asked, his tone dripping with suspicion.
Magnus dismissed him with a scoff. âThis is my first time here, same as you. But if youâre going into a fight without knowing the map, you might as well stay home and sell potatoes. I scouted the terrain thoroughly as soon as we ascended the mountain.â
Solanaâs eyes widened in shock, her gaze toward Magnus now tinged with admiration. Even though she hadnât yet figured out why he wanted them to set a fire on the slope, his meticulous preparation left her in
awe
âEnough chatter,â Magnus said, waving them off. âExplaining more to you is pointless. Mackenzie put me in charge here, so all you have to do is follow my ordersâ
With that, Magnus began escorting Claudette and the others toward the rightâside mountain for their
retreat.
âDâmn it! I canât stand that guy. But for some reason, I want to do exactly what he says, just to see if heâs really as impressive as he acts!â Quintus muttered, his tone both begrudging and intrigued.
âLetâs go, Mr. Quintus,â Solana replied, ignoring his complaints. As long as he followed orders, that was all
that mattered.
Sure enough, when the main forces of the Five Poison Sect scaled the mountain, they pursued Solana and Quintusâ team toward the left peak as planned.
With the martial prowess of Quintus, Solana, and their team, shaking off their pursuers was childâs play. Following Magnusâ earlier instructions, they navigated through the central ridge with ease and arrived at the mountainside on the right without incident.
Per Magnusâ orders, they waited for a considerable amount of time before Solana finally used her unique. skill to ignite a roaring fire.
Thick smoke curled into the sky, dark and ominous, catching the attention of the Five Poison Sectâs troops. Before long, the sectâs forces shifted their focus moving toward the source of the fire.
Whatâs the point of this? Weâre still surrounded. We shouldâve just had a bloody showdown with these venomous freaks yesterday. All this sneaky maneuvering feels like pulling down your pants just to fart- completely unnecessary!â Quintus grumbled loudly, his frustration boiling over.
Solana had no idea what Magnus endgame was, but she trusted he had a larger strategy in play.

confident smile lighting up his face. âAll right, this is where we take them out. Today, weâre going to crush the Five Poison Sectâs 500 troops with a pincer attack.â
âA pincer attack?â Quintus sneered. âHal Magnus, are you dreaming? Whereâs this phantom force coming. from to help us out?â
âYouâll see in five minutes. You can start the fight now if you want, or wait for them to arrive and join us. Your call,â Magnus said casually, before heading further up the slope. His priority was to guard his princess, leaving the rough work to others.
Quintus was about to unleash another round of complaints, but Solana suddenly gasped with delight. âMr. Quintus! Look below usâour unit is here to reinforce u
Quintusâ head snapped toward the mountain base, his w dropping, Sure enough, a large contingent of Wolf Warriors, armed to the teeth, was advancing swiftly. They had already cut off the Five Poison Sectâs retreat and would reach the mountainside in about thirty minutes.
âUnbelievable! How did that b*stard Magnus know this? He predicted everything down to the last detail. Infuriatingly impressive!â Quintus exclaimed, both amazed and exasperated.
Quintus had been waiting for an opportunity to catch Magnus off guard, just once. Yet, up until now, that man had never made a single mistake!
The team ascending the mountain was led by Anna, and they had over five hundred men. Quintusâ forces launched an attack from both the front and the rear, and it didnât take long before the Five Poison Sectâs five hundredâstrong team wassent scattering like startled rats, completely routed in thaos.
âMr. Quintus, is everyone alright? Were there any casualties?â
After the enemy was subdued, Anga immediately turned to Quintus with concern.
It was a clear directive from Mackenzieâcasualties were to be kept to an absolute minimum.
âHey, nobody died! Just a few brothers got injured. How did you know we were here? Did you come specifically to back us up?â
Quintusâ curiosity got the better of him as he asked.
Solana, standing nearby, perked up her ears to listen closely,
âOur main forces arrived. It was the Saintess who realized that Lexi and her group had also infiltrated the Serpent Lair. She ordered us to rush in for reinforcement. As soon as we got here, we spotted fire and smoke, so we came straight over!â
Anna briefly explained the situation.
Solanaâs face immediately lit up with admiration. âLooks like everything was calculated perfectly by Mr. Zelinsky!â
âBut how did he know the main forces would arrive at just this moment?â
Quintus still couldnât figure it out and asked Anna, âDid you coordinate with him?â
Anna simply shook her head.

As they puzzled over it, Magnus descended from the mountain alongside Lexi and the other women. With a smile, he explained, Emmanuel told me two days age that reinforcements would arrive within that time. Didnât you hear the sound of jet engines yesterday?â
Quintus shook his head.
Solana suddenly slapped her forehead. She had heard something, but at the time, she hadnât connected it to the arrival of reinforcements!
Magnus chuckled as he continued, âBased on the timing of Claudetteâs group entering the area, it was easy to deduce that Mackenzieâs forces would arrive around how. As for the five minutes I just mentioned, thatâs because I saw the army entering from afar
So that was it!
It all sounded so simple when laid out, but to calculate so precisely and set everything in motion ahead of time required nothing short of brilliance.
âMr. Zelinsky, youâve got my respect. From now on, in every battle, as long as you give an order, Iâll carry it out without question!â
Solana spoke with genuine admiration.
Anna and the others voiced their agreement, openly expressing their awe for Magnus.
Watching the scene unfold, Laura couldnât help but sign âNo wonder that kid Magnus has so many fans. outside. His talent makes it so easy for people to admire him!â
Claudette only nodded in acknowledgment, but her heart remained untouched by any romantic stirrings, She couldnât quite figure out why.
âAlright, Magnus. Iâll follow your lead too. Whatâs the plan for our next move?â
Quintus straightforward manner surfaced again as he said, âWith the strength we have now and the weapons weâre equipped with, we could storm in directly without much issue, right?â
âWeâd certainly win,â Magnus affirmed before quickly adding, âBut it would come at a heavy cost, both in lives and resources. If we want to eliminate the Serpent Lair without losing a single person and rescue the innocent hostages, weâll need a strategy that combines forces inside and out.â

âMr. Zelinsky, whatâs the plan for coordinating from the inside and outside?â
Solanaâs interest in Magnusâ every word had reached a fever pitch as she eagerly awaited his next move.
âThereâs no time to explain it in full. Someone must immediately follow the Grand Protectorâs retreating forces and infiltrate the building!â
Magnus casually gestured, and everyoneâs eyes landed on the Grand Protectorâs fleeing figure.
Despite the earlier pincer attack, not all of their enemies had been wiped out. The Grand Protector, along with twenty or thirty others, had managed to escape. Now, they were scrambling back into the stronghold in utter disarray.
