Volume I: Departure Chapter 81 New Mission

"Isn't it because the aliens sent small troops to bypass the front line and enter the rear, destroying our resources and interfering with our production, that we guerrillas will fight against them and open up a rear battlefield?" Ling An wondered.

"The rear battlefield is also an important resource for our human beings, with many rare metal deposits, as well as necessary materials such as water sources, and it is indeed one of the purposes of the rear battlefield to protect these materials and maintain the stability of the rear."

"But," Matt said, "if the aliens really want to cut off production, gathering, and transportation in our rear, why not send out stronger alien monsters, but instead send these Crimson demons, plus some raiders at most?" ”

"This ......" Ling An hadn't thought about this.

"This is because the existence of the rear battlefield is in itself a compromise, or rather, a tacit understanding between the alien race and us humans." Matt saw that Ling An was a little confused, and continued to explain:

"We guerrillas, at the beginning, the combat effectiveness is not much different from that of the garrison, but because of the developability of the engine, we can improve ourselves and strengthen ourselves through continuous fighting and sharpening on the edge of life and death."

"If there are no guerrillas, no powerful engine fighters, our Glorious Army will not be able to stop the strong among the aliens, in that case, even if the frontal troops can block the huge number of alien troops, it is meaningless in front of those extremely powerful aliens."

Ling An bowed slightly, he knew this, just like for S-level warriors, no matter how many scarlet demons and raiders there were, they could easily deal with a large number of them, in the same way, no matter how many ordinary warriors there were, it didn't make sense to the demon lord and demon lord in the alien race.

"We are strong, we need to be strong through fighting, to feel the crisis of life and death, but if the gap between the two sides of the battle is too large, even if we can break through, it is impossible to escape death, and there is no point in breaking through."

Rowan is the best example of this, even if he breaks through himself, the raiders can still easily kill him, and for the raiders, the outcome does not change.

"And the rear battlefield happens to be an excellent place, compared to the frontal battlefield and the battlefield behind enemy lines, the rear battlefield is much less dangerous, especially after the strong in our glorious army monitors the border, the alien race can only send weaker monsters over, and the really powerful alien race is basically unable to pass the blockade of those strong people."

A truly powerful alien race, there is only one race: demons.

Demons, Great Demons, Demon Lords, Demon Venerables, these guys are the true essence of the alien race.

"That's the tacit agreement they've reached, we use alien monsters to train our troops, and aliens use this to eradicate potential characters among us. Of course, it is not excluded that the alien race has a hidden passage to reach the rear, but it is usually not used, and if one day, we find a demon in the rear battlefield, it means that the alien race is doing something. ”

Knowing what was going on in the rear battlefield, Ling An left the training room, he had just recovered a little, but he didn't want to be pulled over by Captain Matt as a sparring partner.

Ling An did not go directly back to the temporary dormitory of the team, and walked on the street of the White Tiger Fortress, it was the night of Mars, the temperature was very low, Ling An wrapped his clothes and opened the Tianxun personal terminal.

"All is well, don't read it."

After choosing the type of service and about to send it, Ling An hesitated for a moment and added a Tianxun number to receive the message.

One for parents, one for Xiaoxuan, one for Su Man, and one for the eldest brother......

A message was a meritorious point, and Ling Anxin pressed send painfully.

After sending it, looking at the account that had been deducted three merit points, Ling An breathed a sigh of relief.

"Wait, I'll be back......" he muttered as he stared at the night sky.

……

It had been a month since they returned from their first mission, and in a few days, the Seventh and Eighth Brigades would have to change guards.

Fifteen days ago, Ling An and Luo Wen had fully recovered. As Ling An expected, Rowan had indeed made significant progress, and the limit energy that his body could withstand reached thirty degrees! The combat power has also correspondingly reached thirty combat power.

After recovering, Luo Wen's first thing was not to relax, not to talk to friends, but to find Ling An as soon as possible.

"Do you want to learn Stacking Fist and Ghost Step?" Ling An was surprised.

"Hmm." Rowan nodded, clenching his fists.

He felt the lack of his own strength, and longed for more powerful power, Ling An and Ye Zixu's combat skills were what he had always wanted to learn.

Ye Zixu also tried to teach Luo Wen before, but he didn't have enough talent and comprehension ability, Ye Zixu objectively thought that it was difficult for him to learn, so he didn't teach him anymore.

Of course, Rowan knows the details of such a combat skill.

"You want me to guide you personally? But haven't you tried it before? Ling An also knew that Ye Zixu had taught Luo Wen, and he had also told Ling An that if anyone could learn these combat skills, he could teach them at will.

However, the problem is that all combat techniques involving the use of force cannot be mastered simply through hard work, and without the ability to perceive how strength operates, no matter how they are practiced, they are only superficial and flashy.

"I couldn't before, it doesn't mean that I can't learn now, just treat it as a mutual sparring, okay?" Rowan pleaded.

"Okay." Ling An had no reason to refuse.

But Ling An never expected Luo Wen's perseverance to be so shocking.

Bang!

"Well, would you like to take a break?"

Ling An was out of breath, squatting down on one knee with the slashing blade he used for training, looking at Rowan lying on the ground, he seemed to have no physical strength.

Rowan was lying on his stomach on the ground, and just now he was disrupted by Ling An's stacked fists, and he was hit in the leg by the knife of the slashing blade and fell to the ground. His face was also lying on his side, his eyes closed and he did not speak.

Ling An looked at Luo Wen, in fact, he also hoped that Luo Wen would take a break, after practicing for so many days, he felt a little numb.

But Rowan is like a tireless machine, knocked down again and again, but always able to get up.

Ling An couldn't be a killer, and he also asked Rowan if he wanted to use a more gentle way, such as demonstrating by himself, Rowan to imitate, and then he would guide Rowan .

But Rowan refused, and asked Ling An to use the most brutal way to make him realize in the battle.

"Being beaten is the way to become stronger." Rowan said in all seriousness that this was what Captain Matt had told him.

Ling An was speechless for a while, could anyone else beat Captain Matt?

Fortunately, Ling An finally drained Luo Wen's physical strength, and he could rest.

Ling An sat down, and was about to use Zhou Tianjue to reduce his fatigue, when he saw Luo Wen slowly raise a hand and stretched out five fingers to him.

"Rest...... Five minutes. Trouble. ”

Ling An was like petrifying, "Luo Wen, forget it today, you can't be in a hurry in training." ”

"Thanks, I can hold on." Rowan's voice, though a little weak, was full of determination.

Brother, you can hold it, I can't hold it! Ling An was sad and indignant in his heart, and began to think about whether to knock Luo Wen unconscious next time.

At this moment, the Tianxun terminal of the two of them rang, and Ling An's heart moved, and he hurriedly answered.

"Ling An, Luo Wen, assemble at the temporary station in half an hour."

That's great! Ling An was overjoyed.

Rowan was a little regretful, "Then let's practice again next time, it seems that there is a task." ”

Ling An wasn't worried that they would be too late to carry out the tasks now, because most of the tasks were assigned a day in advance, and now Ling An and Rowan were only a little physically exhausted, and they were not injured, and they would definitely be able to recover in one day.

Seeing Rowan stand up, with some unfinished feelings, Ling An couldn't help but shudder.

He seems to have discovered Rowan's talent: tenacity.

Luo Wen's physical strength recovered quickly, and his will was extremely firm, and more importantly, he was willing to give up a lot of things in order to become stronger, and this determination made Ling An feel a little terrifying.

Looking at his somewhat stumbling figure, Ling An couldn't help but sigh in his heart, even if there was a limit to talent, given time, Luo Wen's achievements would definitely not be low.

They simply packed themselves up and returned to their temporary station.

The temporary shelter in the White Tiger Fortress is far worse than the small apartment in the human fortress, after all, it is a more front-line location, and there is no way to do it if the conditions are simpler.

When Ling An and Rowan arrived, Captain Matt and Sun Lei were already sitting behind the table.

Matt closed his eyes to recuperate, Sun Lei was bored playing with a small pebble, and his eyes lit up when he saw the two come in.

"You're finally here."

Ling An was embarrassed, it seemed that they had arrived early, and the rest of them had not yet arrived.

"If the captain doesn't talk to me, I'm going to suffocate." Sun Lei complained.

Sun Lei is a lonely person, but except for things related to training and tasks, Captain Matt never chats with them.

didn't wait too long, Zhao Bin, Yan Hong, Lu Anguo and others came, and Woodlow, who had changed into a mechanical arm, came in with a heavy sword on his back, looking even more fierce than before.

When Silas and Youmei, who were slightly disheveled, came in, Sun Lei, Yan Hong and others all cast ambiguous glances at the two.

"Silas, stay safe, don't get killed." Sun Lei smiled and patted Silas on the shoulder.

Yumi blushed and glared at him.

"Ahem, everyone has arrived, don't you get down to business?" Silas coughed dryly twice and said with a red face.

"Okay, Sun Lei."

Captain Matt opened his eyes and looked at everyone.

Sun Lei also put away his ridiculous demeanor and sat back in his place.

"Our mission was laid out ahead of schedule." Captain Matt said lightly, and then sent a document to the others through the Tianxun personal terminal.

"We are asked to work with the Seventh Brigade to sweep up the rear battlefield and protect the establishment of new outposts. The time was just before the 7th Brigade switched guards with our Brigade. ”

"The Outpost?" Zhao Bin frowned.

"Why are you re-establishing the outpost now, has it been decided what to do to the aliens?"
