Carl, who was excited, could not listen to Fei'er's persuasion, and now he finally experienced the feeling of walking like flying, and how could he end this experience easily.

Just as he was about to speed up and move deeper into the jungle, Karl glanced out of the corner of his eye, and with his super eyesight, he saw something very strange on the ground.

Carl immediately turned around, kicked his legs on the ground several times in a row, and finally forced himself to resist the inertia of the advance, and rushed towards that side.

Fei'er, who was following closely, looked at Carl's back with some depression, not understanding why he suddenly changed direction...... Even if you want to return to the Punk Fortress, you should return the same way, how can you go in this direction?

"Hey! Karl, where are you going? If we don't return to the Punk Fortress now, it will get dark, and it will be even more dangerous! Phil shouted disgruntled behind Carl.

Unexpectedly, Karl not only did not stop, but his figure flashed suddenly, and he swooped down in an instant.

In the next second, Karl canceled his shape-shifting state and squatted down with a frown.

The breeze drifted by beside him, and Fei'er also appeared beside him, just about to complain about Carl, but he was completely shocked by what was in front of him.

What caught Carl's attention was a human corpse that had been dead for a long time, but the human corpse was wearing a military uniform armband with a golden shield pattern.

"How could someone who is the shield of the empire die in this place? It's not that he is on a mission, but in such a close place to the war zone, he is still out on a mission alone, and he is a little too bold! ”

Fei'er quickly recognized the identity of the other party, but she didn't understand why the other party died alone in this place.

Karl silently observed the ground, where he could faintly see a large number of annoying footprints, as well as some signs of movement that were clearly not human.

"No, he didn't come here alone on a mission!" Karl frowned, pointing to the footprints on the side.

Fei'er also frowned, looked at Carl and said, "What should I do?" Now are we going to follow these footprints? ”

Carl nodded, touching the corpse with his hand, carefully feeling the sensation coming back from his hand.

"There is still a little residual warmth, it seems that this person has only been dead for two or three days, what reason could there be for him to die so close to the war zone?"

"The wounds on the corpse were clearly caused by Zeg bugs...... But the war zone is ahead, why do bugs appear in such a place......"

"There is only one possibility, and that is that war zone has been torn apart by the swarm, so the bugs will appear in this place!" Karl guessed with an ugly face.

Unexpectedly, Fei'er exclaimed: "How is it possible! The war zone defense here, but the Sarasgar line, if it is torn apart by the swarm, the Punk Fortress and the surrounding 4 towns will bear the brunt! ”

Carl silently touched the sand on the ground, shook his head, and continued: "It's impossible to judge yet, let's go, I believe that with our speed, following these footprints should quickly find the remaining people!" ”

"Let's go!" Fei'er had already taken the lead in shifting shapeshifts and rushed out in the direction of these footprints.

Karl smiled slightly, followed behind Fei'er, and rushed in the direction of the footprints.

Along the way, from time to time, I would pass by some dead soldiers, and these soldiers who belonged to the Imperial Shield died extremely tragically.

Finally, after advancing for a while, there were many corpses of the Zeg Zerg next to the corpses of these warriors.

"Looks like they're being hunted by a bunch of bugs......" Carl said with an ugly look on his face as he looked at the corpse of the bugs in front of him.

"Go ahead! These people, it seems, are not in a small number, even in the face of the siege of the swarm, they will not suffer such heavy casualties if they have the intention to fight. ”

"But judging from the number of dead swarms on the ground, these people didn't even think about fighting the swarms, it seems that they must have a more important task to carry ......out," Fei'er urged with a heavy face.

"That's right, Fei'er! Can I ask a question? Carl asked curiously.

"You ask!" Fei'er was a little anxious in her heart, and she didn't have time to talk nonsense for a while.

"Why is it that inside the Punk Fortress, there are all the people of our Imperial Sword, but here there is a war zone defense line, but all the people who died are the people of the Imperial Shield?"

When Fei'er heard this, she sighed helplessly, and quickly explained: "In the Gamma Empire, except for the group of guys in the Inquisition, almost all towns and defense lines are guarded by the team of the Imperial Shield. ”

"Compared to the full-time defensive function of the Imperial Shield, our Imperial Sword is a full-time offensive function, and our task, to put it bluntly, is to take the initiative to attack, exterminate the insect swarm, and regain the lost territory of mankind!"

"I see...... And what about the Punk Fortress? As a frontier fortress of the Gamma Empire, shouldn't it also be handed over to the Imperial Shield to garrison? ”

Fei'er shook her head and smiled helplessly: "Even if the Imperial Sword is responsible for the attack, but his troops must always have their own place to stay!" That's why, after you, John, and Leo choose to join the Imperial Sword, they will be assigned to the Punk Fortress. ”

"Oh...... I see, it turns out that the Punk Fortress is a large army camp under the jurisdiction of the Imperial Sword. Carl said as if he had an understanding.

"That's right, whenever the Imperial Sword team is mobilized or supported, a station similar to a Punk Fortress can come into play."

"Understand ......" Karl clarified his doubts and set off in the direction of the footprints again.

I've been tracking for so long, and the footprints that can be found have gradually shrunk by more than half.

There are only a few human footprints left, and the footprints of the swarm are still disorganized and staggering.

"Wait! Look there! Karl pointed abruptly to the side, but there was a continuous trail in the footprints.

"This doesn't look like a normal bug moving track!" Karl had subconsciously already accumulated his battle spirit power.

The closer he got to the area, the more terrible the corpses on the ground became, and he had a hunch that they were about to enter into a fierce battle.

Just as Carl was about to get up and continue to drive forward, Phil suddenly rushed over and threw Carl from the spot to the other side.

"What's wrong! What's wrong! Carl subconsciously held the blade of the wind spear in his hand, and when he looked back, the place where he was standing was already in a mess, as if he had been attacked by something.

"Phil? Why don't you speak? Carl suddenly realized that Phil had been curled up in his arms after throwing herself upside down, and had not made any reaction.
