About half an hour later, all the team leaders were called to a meeting by Jiang Muye.

To the surprise of the team leaders, as soon as Jiang Muye spoke, it was the [Owl] who set off to retreat back to the White Tiger Fortress.

"Captain, we've only been in the Red Mist Zone for a few days, and we're going to retreat?" The captain of the fourth detachment scratched his head and expressed puzzlement.

"Yes, Captain, according to the general practice, if we come out once, we will at least have to wait until the supplies are only a third of the time left, right? As soon as we [owls] entered behind enemy lines, we were in a hurry to withdraw, and the other squads had to laugh at us when they saw it? Su Peng, the captain of the second detachment, also advised.

The other squad leaders also expressed their opinions in a few words, and Jiang Muye was among them, without saying a word.

Under normal circumstances, Jiang Muye would not prohibit each detachment leader from expressing his opinions, and even if he was an ordinary team member, he would listen to opinions according to the situation.

Because he understands that fighting in a unit like the Fifth Army Corps, in places like the enemy's rear area, he must be prepared at any time, and he is also consciously cultivating several detachment leaders in peacetime, in case he encounters an accident, no one can act as a temporary commander.

"Let's stop arguing, let's listen to what the captain has to say." Ike, the leader of the first detachment, clasped his hands and said calmly.

For a while, the excited crowd also quieted down, yes, the captain has never done things for no reason, let alone greedy for life and afraid of death, saying that there must be a reason for retreating.

"Everyone," Jiang Muye said at this time, "the first task of our Fifth Legion is to contain the enemy, intercept the supply of the alien race, and disrupt the rear of the alien race, but if there are special circumstances, these tasks can be placed in the back first. ”

"During today's battle, the third division team discovered a new type of alien race, suspected to be a metamorphosis of the Scarlet Demon, with the strengths of many other alien races, and the combat power is more than two hundred." At that moment, Jiang Muye also described that kind of monster.

After hearing Matt's report, he called the cloud storage content of the Ling'an recorder team and took a picture of the Scarlet Demon Transformation in it and looked at it again.

After listening to Jiang Muye's description, except for Matt, all the team leaders showed shocked expressions.

"What? New alien? Or a Scarlet Devil with a combat power of more than two hundred? ”

"Captain, does this new alien have the fecundity of the Scarlet Devil?" Su Peng looked worried.

This is also the most worrying thing in the hearts of all those who know about the transformed Scarlet Demon.

For a long time, the alien race has a flaw, that is, the gap between their combat power is too large.

Except for the demons and a few alien races, as well as the metamorphoses of various races, the combat power of the rest of the alien races almost did not exceed two hundred.

Even the most disgusted raiders of the Glorious Army only rely on their stealth ability to evade most detection effects, and their own combat power is just over a hundred.

And the human engine warriors, taking [Owl] as an example, not counting the captains of each detachment and the general captain Jiang Muye, the average combat power of the rest of the team members is about three hundred.

That's why they can easily fight their way through a group of aliens with dozens of combat power, but if the enemy is replaced by that kind of metamorphosed scarlet demon, it won't be so easy.

After all, the difference in combat power is not too big, and this metamorphosed Scarlet Devil also has the talent of other races.

I didn't expect that the scarlet demons at the lowest level of the alien race could evolve such a terrifying thing.

"At the moment, we don't know about this metamorphosis, so we must bring back the captured red crystal for the people of the scientific research department to study." Jiang Muye picked up the black box in his hand, but he didn't open it.

"In that case, there is a reason to retreat." Ekmo rubbed his chin.

"Then retreat, send this thing back, and then come back and fight these alien cubs." The big man clenched his fists violently.

"That's it!"

……

Fall back?

Ling An looked at the command on the communicator and blinked.

"Hey, One-Eye, are we really going to retreat?" On the side, Zorn was a little puzzled.

Didn't you say that the Fifth Legion squad came out once, and often did not return for several months? It's only been a few days, huh?

Ling An glanced at him, of course he knew the reason, but wasn't this kid the Scarlet Demon Transformation that he intercepted with him? Why can't you think of any of this?

After a few simple mentions, it dawned on Zorn.

"So, we have made extra meritorious contributions? How many merit points does this award? ”

This guy has a really strange focus. Ling An shook his head, but he also unconsciously counted his merit points in his heart.

In this mission, the third team will face fewer battles, which also means that there will be many fewer merit points for killing the enemy.

But for the credit of discovering the Scarlet Demon Metamorphosis and perceiving the alien interception route, I have to give a ...... One or twenty thousand, right?

Ling An is poor now, and the merit points on his body are less than 5,000.

Yes, there were originally 50,000 merit points, but now there are only 5,000 left!

These meritorious points, Ling An spent painfully on the second basement floor of the meritorious hall.

After being promoted, Ling An knew that the consumption he had seen before belonged to the cheapest and most ordinary, and the second floor of the Meritorious Hall was a really good thing, of course, it was not cheap.

It took nearly 1w5,000 feats to upgrade his weapon Flying Star Gun to a higher level, adding a lot of materials to make it stronger and at the same time, it also has excellent energy conductivity.

In addition, Ling An also replaced the scatter bomb launcher of the Flying Star Gun with a launcher that could fire armor-piercing explosive shells.

This armor-piercing explosive bomb has extremely penetrating power, and can also cause an explosion when shot into the enemy's body, even if it is a demon, it may be deflated if you are not careful.

Then it was equipped with a short knife, after all, Ling An often liked to throw the Flying Star Spear, and it was still not very convenient to have a secondary weapon on his body.

These two, after all, are still real weapons, although Ling An is heartbroken, but when he got the weapon, he was really satisfied.

The rest of the merits, as well as 2w, were spent on the learning of various combat skills, some of which must be used with spiritual power, after Ling An paid the merits, he completely dived into the technology through his consciousness and entered the virtual space, where he was guided by his predecessors.

These skills are very valuable, unlike other skills that can be practiced by themselves, and they need to be taught by the engine warriors who know this skill, so they are much more expensive.

Even, it includes a secret technique that can improve combat effectiveness in a short period of time like opening pupils, called blood explosion.

Just the battle skill of exploding blood cost Ling An 1w feats.

For the rest of the merits, some potions were purchased to cooperate with the body's training and improve energy capacity.

It can be said that Ling An's combat power has improved so fast, leaving Zorn, who was promoted at the same time, far behind, to a large extent, it is the result of kryptonite!

"Alas, when will I be able to accumulate so many merits again. Or, kill another demon, no, the demon can too. Ling An sighed in his heart.

Only later did he know that ordinary demons only reward 1w merits, and Eh Brown is a demon who has been confirmed, so he has ten times.

Thinking of the devil, Ling An frowned.

There is no concept of a younger generation in the interracial race, except for demons.

And among the demons, the leaders of the younger generation, among which the most talented thirty-nine, are called demons.

Every demon son is extremely talented, and there is even a possibility of breaking through to the thirteenth level in the future, and the human race has paid a huge price to know the identity of the twenty demon sons.

The Fifth Legion's Guidelines: If you encounter a devil, if you have the ability, you will kill it!

"Pack up, we should be leaving soon." Ling An patted Zorn's shoulder, and waved at Cheng Yi, Zhao Gu, Kaisen and others in the distance.

"Right now!" Cheng Yi gestured.

They came out to stand guard, of course, not only the third team, but some of the areas on the left were handed over to the eighth team that had not fought directly before.

"The newcomer to the third team, gone!" Sure enough, the members of the eighth team waved their hands here.

Ling An could sense that after the previous battle, although the third team still hadn't fully integrated into the [Owl], many of the team members no longer looked down on them.

"Let's go, let's go, it's better to go back early." Zorn stretched.

"Sister Lena made an appointment with you?"

"Uh-huh...... Huh? What about your little master's words? ”

"Let's go, it's late. Captain Matt will be angry. ”

……

The red mist stirred, and several figures appeared in the clearing.

"Someone has been here, mostly the human bed bugs." One of them shrugged his nose, grabbed another handful of dirt on the ground, and pinched it.

"There were traces of stampede, and although it was covered up on the surface, the red clay was tighter, indicating that something very heavy had been present on it. It should be a human mecha. The Great Demon turned back and said to his companion.

"Lady Eya, what's next?"

Eya crouched down and walked around, and the rest of the demons didn't dare to speak.

"No hurry, they should be retreating to the Red Mist Zone." Half a ring, Eye said.

"Tell them to take a team of bug catchers, plus our people here, and let's go find those humans."

"Humans, Lady Eye, humans have always been cunning, can we find their traces? What's more, the strength of [Owl] is not weak. On the edge of the boulder, Ei Fist asked respectfully. By his words, the demons had already recognized which Fifth Legion squad was fighting them.

"Hehe......" Under the puzzled gaze of Er Fist, Er also approached him step by step, gently pushed him away, and looked at the boulder that was blocked by him.

"This is?!" Er Fist looked at Er Ye's gaze, and his eyes suddenly shrank.

"Doe fist, you are just too timid, you are cautious when you say it is good, and you are afraid of things if you say it is ugly."

"Lady Erya is right." Fist lowered his head, the look of shock in his eyes still lingering.

"Jiang Muye is indeed cunning, but the enemy can't come when he wants, and leave when he wants, can he?" Eya reached out, and his slender fingers brushed over the boulder, as well as the marks on it.

"Let's go, go find our guests."

"Yes!"

With the order of Eye, in the red mist, countless figures moved, but there was no sound, only a slight pop of a few demons waving their wings.
