Volume 1: Arrogance Chapter 52: The Border is in Emergency
Time passed quickly, and a month later, because the state was stable, the five Dalena left the bamboo forest three days ago. And Rita after arranging everything for the children, in order to enhance her strength, so she once again embarked on the road of training, she has a hunch that a disaster is likely to break out in the near future, but whether it is determined or man-made is unknown.
As for Xiao Yueluo's side, except for pointing out the mistakes in the daily training of the mercenaries, most of the time Xiao Yueluo can be said to be indifferent. Of course, it's not because she's too lazy to care, but because Xiao Yueluo thinks that mercenaries and recruits are different, they all have their own fighting methods, and in terms of actual combat, they are much better than mechanically trained soldiers. Of course, there are advantages and disadvantages, too loose, lax discipline, and because it is a temporary team, the tacit understanding between the team members is not enough, and this often becomes a fatal point in the war on the battlefield.
So during this time, Xiao Yueluo let them sharpen in battle, and team up to challenge mutant beasts that they couldn't defeat alone, all in order to change this. In addition, as Eudora said before, after eating mutant beast meat for more than a month, the mercenaries' own combat effectiveness is much stronger than at the beginning: the increase in strength, the obvious increase in physical endurance, and the speed of movement increases. Of course, these are not groundless, but Xiao Yueluo's experience and summary after fighting them in the past two days.
"Roar!"
"Hurry up and stop it, if you let it run, the old lady will go back tonight and pick your skin!"
Between the dense forests where the sun was scattered, Eudora chased the mutated giant tiger that was constantly running in front of her, and at the same time waved the silver whip in her hand and whirred, and the corner of her eyes fell on Emir's body, and when she saw him stunned, she suddenly felt the urge to beat people.
"I'll do it."
Earl's figure fell from the sky with a loud "boom", and the giant sword in his hand was directly inserted by him, and then his legs were slightly bent, and the two hands were directly pressed on the head of the mutant giant tiger that rushed over.
"Roar!"
The huge impact was transmitted from his arms to his whole body, and Earl's body instantly retreated a few meters, his tense muscles and trembling arms, although his cheeks were flushed, Earl also stopped the mutant giant tiger.
Seeing this, Eudora's eyes suddenly lit up, and the silver whip in her hand suddenly wrapped like a long snake towards one of the hind legs of the mutant giant tiger, and the giant tiger felt the strange appearance coming from the hind legs and became irritable at that moment.
"Caesars, ah......"
The long whip in her hand trembled, and Eudora sensed the struggle of the mutant giant tiger, and was shocked in her heart, and was directly pulled out in the next second. There was a moment of weightlessness, and there was a whistling sound of wind in his ears, but Eudora's small body was picked up in his arms before he landed: "It's really hairy." ”
The helpless and familiar teasing voice made Yudora subconsciously open her eyes, looking at the side face with the corners of her mouth slightly hooked, and her brain instantly shut down.
"Silly?"
Gently placing Eudora on the ground, Xiao Yueluo couldn't help but smile when she looked at her little mouth slightly open.
"No, no."
Eudora sneered and took two steps back, then her gaze fell on the mutant giant tiger in the direction that Xiao Yueluo was looking at. At this time, the mutant giant tiger completely stopped because of the moment just now, staring at Earl with its eyes fixed on it and letting out a low roar of threat.
"General, it'......"
"Leader-level mutant giant tiger, Earl is back, Eudora you go and send a retreat signal."
Xiao Yueluo's eyes narrowed slightly, after a period of training, she was now able to clearly analyze the approximate strength of the mutant beast, and the leader level was the positioning line given by Xiao Yueluo. The reason why it is said to be a positioning line is because the strength of the mutant beast is not only judged by strength, but also by the spirit of the absolute.
For example, the head wolf and the original brown bear are the leader level, they have their own strengths, the head wolf is good at speed and the brown bear is good at strength and defense, and the giant tiger in front of him is a balanced type, so it is not difficult to deal with, it is not difficult to deal with, it is difficult to deal with, as long as these people cooperate well, it is still okay.
It's just that although she understands this, Xiao Yueluo doesn't plan to do it, because opening her spiritual wisdom means being able to communicate, and since you can communicate, you can avoid fighting, no matter what, even if you are careful with a leader-level mutant beast, there is still a great chance that there will be casualties.
Not only that, if you choose to fight and let them escape at the end, there is a high chance that they will be attacked and retaliated by sneak attacks in the future, and Xiao Yueluo naturally can't let this potential danger arise, so once it starts, the mutant giant tiger must be completely killed.
"Human ......"
As Earl moved, the mutant giant tiger also slowly turned around, and finally made contact with Xiao Yueluo in the air.
"I mean, every time you see me, don't you have another name?"
Xiao Yueluo held her forehead and was a little speechless, for these mutant beasts with spiritual intelligence, in addition to the mutant giant tiger in front of her and the brown bear and the head wolf, she had also seen a lot when she was wandering in the forest during this time.
To be honest, there are those with high IQs, but there are even more with low IQs, and it is undeniable that the combat power of these mutant beasts is really strong, and in terms of Xiao Yueluo's current combat power, it is still possible to deal with one at a time. Of course, if the IQ is low, it is a little difficult to deal with the two at the same time, but it is not impossible.
It's just that what makes Xiao Yueluo a little strange is that her physical strength doesn't seem to be able to be improved by eating the flesh of mutant beasts, and her own combat power hasn't been enhanced for a long time, as if she has encountered the bottleneck that Rita once said.
"Human ......"
"Alright, you don't want to be human, I probably know what you're going to say later." Xiao Yueluo waved her hand, her voice revealing a hint of helplessness, "If my people hurt you this time, I apologize to you, and I also ask you to go back where you came from, I still don't want to be enemies with you mutant beasts who have opened their minds; Of course, if you insist on fighting, I will accompany you to the end, but I think you should be able to detect the difference in strength between the two of us, right? ”
"I really can't defeat you, I can choose to retreat, but you need to promise me one condition."
"On what terms?"
Xiao Yueluo was a little curious, this was the first time she had encountered a mutant beast that would make conditions with her, and this giant tiger didn't look like it would make conditions.
"There's a force in the depths of this forest, and I want you to take a look."
"Power ......"
The words of the mutant giant tiger reminded Xiao Yueluo of the voice in Silent Hill, and she couldn't help but guess that the mutant giant tiger was definitely related even if it was not the same kind, but when she looked up and wanted to ask clearly, she couldn't see the stupid mutant tiger in front of her.
"General......
Seeing Eudora waving her hand and running towards her, Xiao Yueluo lowered her eyes to hide her emotions, and then said lightly: "Go back." ”
In fact, Xiao Yueluo didn't want to figure out the truth as soon as possible, because she understood that some things were not something she could do if she wanted to, and if it was really as the voice mentioned at the beginning, then everything would naturally be clear as soon as the time came. And for her, all she has to do is to be prepared before everything happens, to be able to prepare for all disasters.
After returning to the barracks, Xiao Yueluo asked Udora to sort out the injuries of the people who went out to fight this time, and formulated some treatment plans based on the injuries of each person.
"General, is something going on?"
In the tent where Xiao Yueluo worked, Eudora couldn't help but be a little puzzled when she looked at her rare solemn expression.
"To the east, it's almost overwhelmed."
As she spoke, Xiao Yueluo directly handed the things in her hand to Eudora, and Eudora also frowned after a cursory glance: "It's really serious, not to mention the attenuation of personnel, but the logistics and materials are a little unable to keep up." But why didn't the Empire send some troops to support it? If there were enough personnel and supplies, it wouldn't be the current situation, right? ”
"It's not that we don't send support, but we can't send it. What do you think Your Highness is for forming this team? It's because of the lack of personnel. ”
"Understaffed? Why is this happening? Didn't I remember that the empire was supposed to have a reserve army? ”
As the most powerful country in the Islamic continent, Eudora has the impression that there will be no shortage of personnel, you must know that the lack of personnel in the army means the decline and extinction of a country, but this situation is possible in the empire?
"Whew." Xiao Yueluo closed her eyes and exhaled a long breath, then opened her eyes and looked at Eudora and said, "As far as the information we have now, most of the countries in the east of the empire have been destroyed by the hands of mutant beasts, and even if they still exist, they are only struggling to support them, and the displaced people generated after the demise of these small countries continue to pour into the territory of the empire. ”
"So that's the case, those spare armies have been taken to maintain order."
Eudora nodded with a look of understanding, and Xiao Yueluo continued to speak when she saw this: "In addition, a large number of mutations have also been discovered in various parts of the empire, and in order to prevent mutant beasts from attacking the town, it is naturally impossible for those troops stationed to be sent to other places. ”
"What are you going to do, General? If we go to support, as it stands......"
Eudora didn't continue, but the worried look really fell on Xiao Yueluo's eyes: "Don't worry, I won't joke with your lives, with your current combat effectiveness, although the direct cooperation of each team needs to be enhanced, it is already mature as far as each team is concerned." ”
For this, Xiao Yueluo did not have half an element of exaggeration and comfort in it, she saw the progress of everyone in the entire military camp since entering the forest, the tacit understanding of each team from the beginning of the clumsiness to the current proficiency, she believed that if she was given another period of time, she could build this team into an existence that was not inferior to the Black Rose.
