Chapter Sixty-Four: Team Battles Begin (5) The Calm Before the Storm
Freya was wounded, and the others couldn't continue their journey, so they camped on the spot and prepared to rest, set up a tent, settled Freya, and turned away to find Lilin.
"Mentor Lilin, there are some things I want to discuss with you."
"Xiaoyao, what's the matter?"
"How are these days arranged?"
"You want to ask this, now that Freya is injured, it is not easy to take her around, so I want her and you to find a place to temporarily station as our base camp, so that it will also facilitate our movement, what do you think?"
"This is not very good, the beast tide may come at any time now, and even the periphery of the Black Feather Forest will become very dangerous at that time, once you fall into the beast herd, it will be difficult to get out, I suggest that you suspend the mission until the beast tide breaks out, we have a certain amount of information to carry out the mission, and by then Xiaoya's injury will be healed, and it will not affect the battle."
"This ...... That's right, I didn't take into account the beast tide, and we will definitely die if we fall into the beast tide, so let's find a place to make some preparations tomorrow as our base camp. ”
"Okay, since Tutor Lilin agreed, then I won't bother, I'll go back to take care of Xiaoya."
"Okay, I'll tell everyone about that too."
Leaving Lilin's tent, she turned around and returned to Freya's tent.
Freya, who was lying on the quilt, heard the sound and turned her head, just in time to see Xiaoyao returning to the tent, "Xiaoyao, you're back?" What did you just do?"
"Discuss tomorrow with Mentor Lilin."
"Where are we going tomorrow?"
"I've discussed with Mentor Lilin to find a place to hide tomorrow, and wait until the beast tide breaks out to gather some information before continuing the mission, and then your injuries should be healed."
"Thank you for being free, it's all because I hurt you that Mentor Lilin stopped performing the mission, right?"
"There are also reasons for this, in fact, even if you are not injured, I plan to stop you from continuing to hunt demonic beasts in the next day or two, it is too dangerous for you to do this when the beast tide breaks out."
"Okay, Xiaoyao, come over and help me roll over, my back hurts when I move a little now."
"Didn't you shout that it was okay?"
"However, it really hurts, and it's uncomfortable to lie on my stomach all the time."
"If you're lying down, it's easy to get into the wound."
"Then what should I do, I can't sleep at all when I'm lying on my stomach."
"Then I'll sleep with you in my arms, so you won't touch your back."
"Hmph, you know to take advantage of me, I'm hungry and get me something to eat."
"Then be careful, don't get a wound."
"Got it, don't be a mother-in-law anymore."
Xiaoyao turned around and went out to prepare food for Freya, who had planned to make dinner for the culprit, but after thinking about it, it would be better to make Freya something light, and the culprit was able to survive.
After dinner, Freya lay in Xiaoyao's arms and gradually fell asleep, and Xiaoyao was afraid of touching the wound on Freya's back, so she didn't sleep all night and looked at the beautiful woman in her arms like that.
Freya woke up very early in the morning, and she slept very comfortably this night, but when she opened her eyes, she saw Xiaoyao staring at herself, so she quickly closed her eyes again, "What are you doing with your eyes closed?" Am I that scary?"
"yes, it's scary, you must not have thought of anything good when you look at me like this early in the morning."
"Isn't that a good thing for you?"
"Hmph, it doesn't count." As she spoke, Freya was about to get up, but she seemed to forget that she was injured, and as soon as she got together, she touched the wound on her back, "Ah, ah, it hurts." ”
"You're just not careful." Despite the reproach, Xiaoyao gently patted Freya on the back with his hand.
"You tap, it hurts."
"Okay."
Freya finally felt no pain after being caress for a while, "Help me up, I'm going out." ”
Gently helped Freya to ask with some doubts: "What are you going out to do early, I'll make breakfast for you and bring it in."
"Leave it to me." As he spoke, he walked outside the tent, "You are not allowed to come with me and hear it." ”
"Got it." Seeing Freya's appearance, she guessed what Freya wanted to do, so she didn't go out.
Not long after Freya returned, everyone got up one after another, had breakfast, and began to discuss today's destination.
"I had the swarm scout last night, and there's an abandoned cave about two kilometers from here, which I think could be used as our temporary base camp."
"Caves? Could it be the territory of other monsters?"
"Probably not, there is no trace of demonic beast activity in that cave, it should be a borderland, and it is not far from here."
"In that case, let's go and have a look, Xiaoyao, Freya has no mobility and you can take her forward."
"Okay."
Everyone packed up neatly and began to move towards the cave, Freya was carried in Xiaoyao's arms because of her injury, Freya didn't agree at all, but Xiaoyao didn't discuss with Freya at all, and she just picked her up and left, and Freya, who was being held, didn't dare to struggle too much for fear of pulling the wound, even if it was a tacit acquiescence to Xiaoyao's behavior.
After a while, everyone came to the cave, the cave was quite spacious and there was a stream flowing down from the top of the mountain, "It's very good here, even if it is besieged by demonic beasts, don't worry, the entrance of the cave is not big, and it is convenient for us to defend." ”
"That's it, what does Mentor Lilin think?"
"It's nice, everybody moved everything inside and put it away, and then started setting traps and defenses around it."
"Okay."
Everyone put their things away and began to get busy, Freya also wanted to help, but was rejected by Xiaoyao, and everyone persuaded Freya one after another, so Freya had to stay in the cave, and everyone showed their magic and began to arrange their defenses, and at this time, Xiaoyao quietly returned to the stone city.
"Abasser, taking advantage of the coming of this beast tide, you have to collect as many samples of various magical beasts as possible to strengthen the insect swarm."
"Obey the master."
"Rod, how's the Shadow Dream Organization going?"
"Back to the Lord, Shadow Dream has been developing very smoothly recently, and even the Sardar royal family has already touched it, but that person is only a peripheral member of the royal family, but I am confident that it will not be long before I can get in touch with the core of Sardar."
"So fast?"
"Yes, because of the beast tide, the attention of our intelligence personnel within the Sardar Empire is not as high as before, so we have the opportunity to develop rapidly."
"Are you sure they didn't do it on purpose?"
"It shouldn't have been done on purpose."
"Why?"
"First of all, Sardar doesn't know that the Shadow Dream Organization has anything to do with you, so it shouldn't be possible to set a trap for us, and secondly, when the beast tide occurred before, all countries were focused on preparing for the beast tide and didn't have the energy to think about anything else, so in the long run, all countries were the most vulnerable when the beast tide occurred."
"That's good, get access to the core secrets as soon as possible, but don't expose it too quickly and the gains outweigh the losses, and stay vigilant in case this is a trap."
"Yes to the Lord."
