Chapter Eighty-Seven: Response

For the next twenty days, both sides were calm, but both sides understood that it was calm before the storm.

The contents of the day's meeting were revealed, and the team that had infiltrated the enemy-occupied territory found that the number of parades had dropped significantly compared to before, and Yalinda decided to push the line forward by another kilometer, only to be met with symbolic resistance.

Not knowing what the other side was doing, the soldiers at the bottom were very happy with the change, but the four members of the Provisional Combat Committee were all worried about the situation. Both Alinda and Locke conducted a secret clean-up of their subordinates, and the more than 100 men brought by Austin were familiar with the situation, and pounced on the place where the riot was caused like crows with carrion, and blood flowed in the camp while fighting outside.

The warriors finally realized the ruthlessness and cold-bloodedness of the people from the royal city, and they were dissatisfied at first, but later evidence proved that they were indeed killing spies who had been secretly bought by the barbarians, or who had secret dealings with enemy-occupied areas. Such people are common in wartime, and most of the time the military turns a blind eye, but this purge was merciless.

The soldiers also received the news of the decisive battle from nowhere, and the smell of blood and the tension of the battle spread through the camp at the same time.

During this period of time, the encroachment plan was still being carried out, but the results were far less than before. The top brass and staff of the dynasty didn't care about this either, and they were all preparing for the final battle. Austin also went deep into enemy-occupied areas several times during this period, but he didn't see the other party's lair, and retreated after killing a few fourth-order and many third-order.

On one occasion he saw the white-robed figure of the Fifth Order again, but Davix did not follow him, and instead was Blazing Bear and Quiraf. Blazing Bear's armament ability is also excellent, but it has not developed to the fourth order like Davix. Because of the lack of long-range strike force, and at the same time afraid of affecting the final decisive battle, Austin has been extremely cautious these times, and has lost the bloodiness of breaking through the army for the first time, but it is like a cold snake wandering in the shadows, and it will bite a fatal wound if he is not careful.

The consumption of each fourth-order is a big loss on the battlefield. As for the second- and third-order people, they are the backbone, and there are quite a few of them, but they are the cornerstone of the main battlefield operations.

On this day, the sky was rarely clear, and Austin was reluctant to fight in such weather, even if he was on the battlefield, he preferred to stay at the command headquarters and observe the unfamiliar military maps and the sand tables projected by the alchemy matrix.

On the twentieth day, Davix finally returned to him, his face was a little more rosy than before the injury, and even a little more flesh on his face than before, and it was obvious that this time was also very comfortable.

As soon as he was discharged from the hospital, he complained to Austin that he felt almost recovered on the fifteenth day, but the hospital people always limited the amount of exercise he could do.

Looking at Davix's angry expression, the expression on that face became more and more delicate, which made Austin feel pity. Austin felt a chill in his heart about this sudden thought, and he sensed something again, and asked, "Have you made another breakthrough?"

"Of course, I have invested all the nodes ignited during this time, and I have developed a fifth-order ability. The Vulcan Cone, as I call it, is a non-standard fifth-order ability with strong penetration and burst abilities. ”

Austin felt heartfelt joy for the back on this battlefield and whistled happily.

Davix glanced at him suspiciously, and said, "Haven't you also reached the fifth order?" Don't deny it, I can still feel it." What is the new ability? Fifth order power? There should be derivative ability. ”

"Fifth-order strength is for sure, this is the basis of my ability, and at the same time, I have also raised my defense to the fourth order, so the Extreme Speed Thrust has advanced to the fifth order, this is an ability with room for development, I can launch it at thirty meters, I think with the increase in physical strength, this ability can still develop. In addition, I have a newly created fifth-order derivative ability. ”

"Oh my God, God God bless!" Davix let out an almost maddening exclamation, "What kind of monster are you? Even if you kill all the way back, it will be difficult to ignite so many nodes, right? Not to mention the new fifth-order ability! The nodes you ignited are really more than double mine, not to mention that I did a lot of kills when I went." ”

Austin smiled silently, and if he said that he had also developed the blade that a fourth-order armed ability could only dream of, he wondered if the other party would call him a pervert.

He didn't know why, but after Blue Flame ignited the black mist, he felt that there was a strange ability that fed back to make it easier to ignite nodes in the war room.

Davix looked at that face, and suddenly knew that his companion had not told him, and he couldn't help but feel angry, and asked, "What is your ability?"

Austin still maintained that inscrutable expression, and said, "I won't tell you about you yet, I can only say that he is a hole card that can surprise the enemy." ”

The two were chatting, when suddenly a soldier in light armor hurriedly barged in and threw himself directly on the elongated conference table, the orange combat suit inside was orange and red, showing his identity as a soldier in the military headquarters, and his pants were still stained with the mud mixed with snow and water in the wilderness.

Yalinda was whispering something to the other staff officers on the side, and when she saw such a scene, she frowned and said unhappily, "What are you doing?"

Hearing Yalinda's scolding, the soldier finally breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes were still a little dazed, and he searched for a while before determining the location of the chief, and said: "My lord, my lords, the last batch of goods transported by land from Apocalypse City is surrounded, we rangers only have twenty people, and the rest are all in place ready to support at any time, I will come back first to report the news!"

Yalinda's eyes were also a little solemn, saying that it was "goods", but in fact, it was the military supplies sent by Apocalypse City. This batch is placed at the end, and it should be a lot of Red Cloud high-explosive grenades and ammunition with various characteristics, if it is lost, it will have a great impact on the implementation of tactics in the future.

Yalinda glanced at Austin, who understood what he meant, nodded and said, "I'll bring someone over immediately, you guys don't have to follow me." How many of them are there?"

The soldier who came in to report turned his eyes to Austin, of course he knew Austin's reputation, his expression finally calmed down, and replied: "Report to Lord Austin, we didn't dare to look closely, ...... outside"

"Getting to the point!"

"Yes, about fifty people, we don't know how high their abilities are, but the highest is no more than the fourth order, and our people are about twenty, according to convention, they should be members of the Templar Cavalry Regiment. ”

Austin nodded, those who belonged directly to the cardinal's office, the white-armored and red-robed warriors were the elite of the elite, comparable to the personnel under him, even if the fifty rebels were more than twice as numerically superior, Austin believed that they would still be able to deal with it temporarily.
