Benjamin's 3,000 Phantom Marksmen, along with more than 300 of his own guards, hid into the primeval forests around Marishin.

Except for a few high-ranking officers, Benjamin did not explain to anyone else that the entry into the mountains was due to the material dilemma, and the order he gave to his troops was: "Garrison the jungle for actual combat training, actual combat exercises!" "Except for the arrows of the bow and arrows being removed, everything is operated according to the standards of actual combat, and each squad can compete with each other for territory and resources, and even allow each squad a certain proportion of casualties.

Such a layout tests not only the combat quality of the army, but also the ability to govern and operate one's own territory. In addition to fighting for each other, each squad can also trade with each other, communicate with each other, and even vertically and horizontally, several squads form one camp to deal with the other camp, of course, Benjamin's Chinese army guard needs to reconcile various relationships from it, and will also participate in the battle for battle, and if necessary, Benjamin will also strengthen the truce to summarize experience.

This is like a miniature version of the Great Melee of the Sixteen Kingdoms, in which Benjamin's more than 300 guards composed of the Chinese army camp is equivalent to the motherland, and the other fifteen squads are equivalent to the vassal states of the motherland, and the military training results of each squad are evaluated in addition to military, but also military, political, diplomatic and other indicators.

Benjamin had to take turns patrolling the territory of the fifteen squads, and in addition to leading thirty guards around him, the other guards were handed over to Dacomar, the chief of the guard, and continued to order and mediate the other fifteen squads.

In the primeval jungle in spring, the snow slowly melts, and all kinds of flowers begin to bloom. But for these jungle warriors, this season is the hardest day of the year in the jungle. Although the elves have the right to dominate the large forest, they never go hunting in the spring, which is not an administrative restriction on hunting, but the elves spontaneously protect the land where they grow.

Spring is the season for life to multiply, and the elves know the consequences of fishing in the dry waters, and unless they are forced to do so, they will not destroy the land, and they will not abandon the rules they have followed for tens of thousands of years. Can't hunt, and it's not the ripening season for mountain fruits, plus the weather is warm and cold, and the snow melts and causes the ground to be muddy, so you can imagine what kind of situation the teams that only brought half a month of supplies will face. Bamboo shoots, mushrooms, wild vegetables, plant shoots, and flowers have all become their food.

Benjamin led his thirty guards and marched towards the farthest detachment to the east of Marishin. Although it is very hard and tiring, because of the goals, actions, and achievements, Benjamin feels that every day is very fulfilling. When I realize my dream of recovering the country, and then look back, in fact, this bit of hardship, this bit of tiredness, and these blood and sweat will only become better memories.

In the evening, Benjamin and his party came to a small lake and, according to the original plan, camped here. The small lake is not big, but it is beautiful, with flat sandy beaches on three sides, and only the northwest side is a high mountain cliff. Surprisingly, even in early spring, the lake is already full of trees, aquatic plants, and flowers. The surface of the lake is misty, and under the light of the remnant sun, it is as mysterious as a fairyland.

Standing by the lake, Benjamin and the others felt incomparably warm and comfortable, which made people feel happy, and the fatigue on their bodies was swept away.

"Your Majesty, this is a hot spring lake!" A guard surveyed the surrounding terrain and came back to report.

Benjamin nodded and said, "Hahaha! Okay, immediately set up a camp, and then divide into two teams and go to the lake to soak in the hot springs! ”

It is rare to have a grand scene, and there is a hot spring bath, and after a simple meal, the group of people who have been tired from the march for a day gradually fell asleep......

"Enemy attack! ——”

Benjamin, who was asleep, heard the shouts of the night guards, and then, ahhhhhhhhh

A white shadow quickly flashed into the camp, heading for Benjamin's location. As soon as the guards woke up from their sleep, they immediately protected Benjamin's position in the center, and several arrows shot towards the white shadow, only to hear the neighing of a war horse, just when several guards thought they had hit the target and rushed forward to capture the enemy alive, the white shadow quickly crossed the encirclement and disappeared into the night sky, leaving only a few traces of blood.

"See what's not clear?" Benjamin asked the guards beside him.

"Too fast, it's too dark, I can't see what it is, Your Majesty!" All the guards answered almost the same thing.

Looking at the injuries of the two night guards, fortunately, the injuries were not too serious, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief!

It was too sudden, without any warning, and it was not clear what the opponent was, but it was clear that the opponent had a clear goal, and that was Benjamin himself.

Benjamin ordered: "Level 2 alert tonight, we'll set off at dawn and get out of here quickly!" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Level 2 alert means half sleeping and half watching.

Nothing happened all night, and by the time dawn everyone was ready to go.

The entire area is foggy and the visibility is very low, so people have to walk in front of each other to see clearly. The temperature of the hot spring lake is already relatively high, and it is normal for the humidity to be so heavy in the early spring morning that no one thinks it is too strange.

Bypassing the hot spring lake, it was another day's journey to reach the destination, so despite some accidents last night, everyone didn't really care and set off early.

Originally, he thought that the fog would gradually dissipate as the sun rose, but Benjamin felt that the fog was getting thicker and thicker, and even in the marching columns, it was almost impossible to see the people who were nearby, which made everyone start to feel faintly uneasy.

After walking for more than two hours, I didn't get out of the fog, nor did I walk out of the lake area, the hot spring lake has always been on my left side, and I can't do without it!

No one spoke, and everyone knew in their hearts that there must be something strange about this lake, but now the fog is too heavy, and the vision is completely blurred, even if you want to explore it, you have to wait until the fog clears before you can go, otherwise, you may fall behind and fall into danger. Without Benjamin's order, everyone was automatically put on emergency alert.

The jungle in front of him suddenly disappeared, and the dense fog disappeared, and what appeared in front of me was a crystal stone forest, with huge red crystal pillars rising from the ground like towering trees, densely distributed on the shore of the lake overgrown with flowers and plants.

Benjamin was about to send someone to investigate the surroundings, but he heard a touching laugh from high in the sky, and a random voice came: "You trespass into the secret realm of the Demon Spring, and you will die, hahaha!" ”

I saw fifteen white flying horses with huge wings standing in the air, and on each flying horse sat a female elf, wearing a tight bronze battle armor, holding a silver-white saber in her right hand and a delicate shield in her left hand. Among them, the girl's Pegasus mount was dressed in silver and white, and it was dazzling.

Benjamin and the thirty guards were stunned, these flying maidens were so beautiful. The jungle warriors of the forest country are generally male elves, and few female elves participate in the battle, and now the sky is full of beautiful and blind fairy warriors, and even the voice of loud speech is so intoxicating and confused.

"It's so rude!" The girl at the head said angrily, and then ordered the Sailor Moon beside her: "Capture them!" ”

"Wait!" Benjamin shouted to stop, and then said, "Ladies and gentlemen, we are passing by here, and we have no intention of offending, I am afraid there is a misunderstanding here!" It's just that I saw the beautiful and moving ladies just now, and I can't help but admire the loss of mind, and I lost my temper for a while, so please forgive the ladies and don't care! ”

Benjamin said this, and the guards around him also lined up, just waiting for an order to attack immediately.

"There is no misunderstanding!" The leading girl said, "I said that those who trespass on the secret realm die!" Capture them first and hand them over to the patriarch! With that, as soon as his legs clamped the horse's body, the silver Pegasus immediately slashed towards Benjamin, and the other Pegasus followed closely behind.

The thirty guards who were waiting for the battle were about to bend their bows and arrows to shoot Pegasus, but a dozen Pegasus had already flown in front of them, and these Phantom Archer guards lost the advantage of their bows and arrows and were forced to switch to hand-to-hand combat.

Those Pegasus warriors were too fast, although they had no rules and attack power, but the skills and tactics that were fast and unbreakable had already caused Benjamin and the thirty guards to fall into chaos, and the Pegasus warriors firmly occupied the initiative.

The fight without saying a second sentence really caught Benjamin off guard, his own guards were mainly shot with bows and arrows, and they were relatively weak in hand-to-hand combat, and they also lost their first move, and several people were immediately knocked to the ground. Benjamin was entangled by the leader on the silver pegasus, and as his guards fell one by one, he didn't even have a chance to make a move. The speed of the silver horse was too fast, and the technical and tactical coordination with the girl was almost seamless, and Benjamin almost only had the ability to parry, and had no power to fight back. After a few rounds, I was already scarred and in pain!

It was a battle without suspense, and the situation was completely one-sided. Silver Pegasus flew towards Benjamin again, and the angry Benjamin carried his sword and rushed towards Silver Pegasus desperately, the blade of which was pointed directly at Pegasus, completely ignoring the fact that he was injured or even lost his life by Pegasus.

The female elf on the silver flying horse was stunned for a moment when she saw Benjamin's way of playing, and then asked Pegasus to slow down, and at the moment when the two sides were about to clash, she hurriedly made Silver Pegasus move to the left, so as not to lose both.

At the risk of being slashed by a female warrior, Benjamin leaped onto Pegasus' back and hugged the female elf on the back of Silver Pegasus with both hands.

The opponent did not play cards according to common sense, and the sudden lose-lose style of play made the female elf and Pegasus have no time to adjust. The knife in the right hand of the female elf quickly slashed at Benjamin's right leg behind her, Benjamin's hands held the female elf, and she was on the back of the horse, her right leg could not dodge, so she simply stabbed the sword she was still holding in her hand at the silver Pegasus, and the tip of the sword pierced deeply into the right front shoulder of the silver Pegasus, and the silver Pegasus who was in pain quickly spread its wings and rose into the air and flew towards the lake.

Benjamin and the female elf were too late to react to this sudden flight, and almost fell from their horses, and the female elf had to give up the attack on Benjamin, and pulled the reins with both hands, trying to control the flight of Pegasus, but the silver Pegasus, who was stabbed by the sword, had already lost control.

Silver Pegasus was so fast that it quickly disappeared into the thick fog of the vast lake. The two didn't care about attacking each other, the female elf grabbed the reins to prevent falling off the horse, and Benjamin held the female elf and didn't let go.

Everyone who was still fighting in the Crystal Pillar Forest was stunned by the way the two leaders played, and forgot to remember the fight for a while, and the female elves chased in the direction where the silver Pegasus disappeared, and the elf guards on the ground also ran towards the small lake......
