Long sighs did not increase the strength of her army, and Catherine looked far away, her gaze beyond the earth and sky to the distant horizon. The Third Expeditionary Force may be somewhere behind that horizon. How could you convince the barbarian to merge with his First Expeditionary Force?

The Overseer patted the gold beneath her, who shook her head unhappily, but quickened her pace. The old dog who was following him glanced up at Catherine, and slowly quickened his pace.

Two hours later, the vicious dogs stopped about two kilometers from the dragon lice phalanx. Catherine rode the gold toward her dragon lice troops, with only the old dogs and demons continuing to protect their overseers.

The seven commanders of the First Expeditionary Force commanded the troops to make way for Catherine. Catherine walked to the front of the formation, looked at the sheep who had adapted to the "new environment" and started to gnaw on the turf again, and she turned to ask, "Did you find any fellows who came to hunt?"

The military leaders shook their heads together.

"Then you send someone to investigate, I need to find out the specific location of the Third Expeditionary Force. Catherine gestured in a direction, "Look in that direction." ”

This direction comes from her perception of the Barbarian Overseers.

The military commanders were ordered to immediately send out reconnaissance troops. Catherine knew that these straight-headed military leaders were good at following orders, and their discipline and obedience were absolutely fine, but their autonomy and flexibility were not very good.

"Ziggy, do you know who attacked your companions?" Catherine asked the demons directly. After two days together, she now figured it out. The demons that these sheep turn into call themselves Ziggy. Their intelligence is actually much higher than expected, but their language skills are relatively weak. However, in this world, the native race doesn't seem to be good at expressing itself, and I don't know if it's because of the influence of the Silver Dragon King's soul.

Ziggy didn't know. The leader of the six demons replied.

Although she knew the answer, Catherine was still a little disappointed. Earlier, when the expeditionary force had a dragon lice that had died violently, Catherine had the old dog ask the Siggy demons. This time, the Overseer asked again in person, just to confirm.

"Ziggy knows the competition. "But I didn't expect the Siggy Demon to take the initiative to put forward his opinion in a rare way.

"Compare, what?" Catherine frowned in confusion.

"Strength, more than strength. ”

"You mean someone is looking for you to test your strength?"

"Test your strength, don't hurt Ziggy. The Ziggy Demon's voice suddenly raised. "Ziggy is not here. Harm to children. ”

"Your guess?" Catherine nodded, and although the demon's words were simple, it was not difficult to guess what he meant. Such speculation is not unreasonable, but there is no urgency to find out the cause now. The identity of the murderer is more important.

The reconnaissance units sent out returned one after another after three hours. The position of the 3rd Expeditionary Force has been found. And according to the report of that squad. It also appears that a defensive structure has been found. It's a pity that the expression ability of ordinary dragon lice warriors is much worse than that of the Zigg Demon, and it is impossible to tell what kind of building it is.

However, this did not prevent Catherine from proceeding according to her own plan. She ordered the two military chiefs to march with their troops, and the destination was chosen where the defensive structures could be seen. Wait for the troops of the two heads to go away. Catherine ordered the four commanders to follow the first two and maintain a distance of about five kilometers.

The army of dragon lice was not slow, and Catherine watched as several troops quickly disappeared into the horizon, raised her horse, and let her tired golden self play.

"Do you know what happened to the building that the scouts found?" she waved casually as she walked towards the flock of sheep in front of her, motioning for the old dog beside her to follow.

The old dog didn't answer immediately, but seemed to think for a moment before saying, "I've heard Lord Scorn mention that in the heart of the world, powerful legions are able to build different buildings in their own territory. The Evil Star Legion has always belonged to the Outlying Legion and does not have the ability to construct buildings. ”

"Neither should my First Expeditionary Force. Catherine looked in the direction of the Third Expeditionary Force, "But the Third Expeditionary Force seems to already have such an ability, and if it were to engage them, it would not cause heavy casualties due to their fortifications." ”

"Actually, the First Expeditionary Force also has buildings. The old dog said with a smile.

"Huh?"

"Tent, Overseer. "It's the Neutral Corps that really can't build buildings, and even if the Third Expeditionary Force can build buildings, it shouldn't be a powerful fortification." ”

"Hmm. The Overseer nodded. Speculating from a simple comparison of strengths, there shouldn't be much of a gap between the three weakest troops in the ranking expeditionary force system. If the 3rd Expeditionary Army had strong fortifications, the so-called merger would have been difficult. An army that does not have much individual combat effectiveness like Dragon Lice will probably not be able to subdue the Third Expeditionary Force by force. In that case, the only way to convince the Barbarians to be able to convince the Overseers was to negotiate with them, but Catherine was not optimistic about negotiations - the Barbarians were simple and rough in their thinking, and they preferred to express their thoughts with their fists.

After a day's rest, Catherine and her vicious dogs are back on the road. As a direct subordinate force, these vicious dogs are all led by Catherine herself from the soul level. The sheer number of women overseers placed a great burden on them. Even if Catherine's soul power was strengthened to a certain extent, it was still difficult to control the nearly twenty thousand vicious dogs. That's why Catherine couldn't go with the army chiefs yesterday and had to rest the night on the sheep's grounds.

After about four hours of travel, Catherine vaguely saw the dragon lice phalanx in front of her. According to the dragon lice warriors sent back by the army commanders, all the troops had successfully reached their destination before nightfall yesterday, and began to monitor the movements of the Third Expeditionary Force.

Judging by the phalanx arrangement ahead, there should have been no clashes between the two sides. That is, the large army that Catherine deliberately sent did not provoke the 3rd Expeditionary Force at the preset distance. At most, the other party is on alert.

After Catherine was tested by the Fat Rat Overseer Visrat, she guessed that within the Expeditionary Force system, the major expeditionary forces were roughly friendly to each other. If the troops of both sides meet, they usually do not engage directly. Of course, this must be carefully verified, and the results of the current verification seem to be true.

Catherine left the vicious dogs between the front and rear formations, and went to the front under the escort of the old dog and the Ziggy demon. The 3rd Expeditionary Army, as well as their buildings, can be clearly seen there. (To be continued.) )
