"But what is this mission to escort?" Zaro was a little curious.

The content of the escort, Jordan didn't say anything but waved his hand: "Everyone pack up and gather at the door in ten minutes." ”

Soon, the five hundred members of the Firebird Corps left Shahe City in a mighty manner.

After walking about twenty miles north, we came to a huge farm.

The farm was so large that as far as the eye could see, there was a large field of golden corn (corn is a crop of the continent of Leo, similar to the wheat of the earth), and many people were busy harvesting it.

At the entrance to the huge wooden gate of the farm, there was already a team of chariots and horses waiting there.

It was a convoy of about 200 wagons, and although I didn't see what was in the wagons, I guessed that the wagons were filled with husked corn from the smell of corn wafting out.

The middle-aged man in his forties who led the excavation was gorgeously and exquisitely dressed, but between his eyebrows was full of a mercenary and shrewd look unique to a businessman.

It can be seen that he and Jordan are still quite familiar, and when they saw Jordan coming with a large team, they hurriedly greeted him.

"Brother Jordan, I'm going to ask you again this time."

"You're welcome, thanks to Dorma for your care over the years, we should say thank you."

The relationship between the two seems to be good, which can be easily heard from their conversation.

"This shipment must be delivered to Cairo within two months, Brother Jordan, don't miss the time."

"Haha, don't worry, I promise to send it to Cairo City within two months."

Jordan's voice was loud and confident.

It seems that a large quantity of corn was being transported this time, and it was to be sent to the city of Cairo, which was closer to the north.

Aoyama's mind immediately had all sorts of information about Cairo City, which was also a city near the northern snowfields, and it was said that it was originally the capital of the Ice Empire, but that was five years ago.

The former city of Cairo has now become an administrative city of the Demon Empire, and the city defense army of the Demon Empire is stationed, and it is also the main force of the Demon Empire stationed in the north to encircle and suppress the remnants of the Ice Empire.

Because of the long-term confrontation with the guerrillas, that area should be considered a frontline area strictly speaking, and it stands to reason that it should not be an ideal place to do business.

"Strange, isn't there still a war there, why is this shipment being sent there?" Saeki hesitated.

"What's so strange about that?" Another old member of the Firebird Corps smiled lightly: "In the past few years, the Firebird Corps has often helped the military transport logistics materials, and this time it should be the same, the military funded the purchase of Mr. Doma's corn, and then we are responsible for transporting it to the front line in Cairo City." ”

"In other words, we are now equivalent to the logistics department of the imperial military." Zaro was taken aback.

"That is, the military pays a lot of money for hiring, and it's still paid out of the pocket to do business with them." The old member was a little proud: "This is not something that any corps can do, because Commander Jordan and the military have acquaintances to grab this beauty difference, if this trip is completed, everyone can receive at least 50 gold coins, which is a lot of income." ”

"I see." Zaro, Saeki and the others nodded slightly in admiration.

The price of the Leo continent is not clear, but listening to them talk about fifty gold coins should be considered a lot of income.

However, when everyone was talking about the military excitedly, Aoyama found that Adam's indifferent eyes flashed with a strange essence.

It was an extremely sharp murderous aura and resentment.

Although it was only a flash, and others didn't pay attention to it at all, Qingshan clearly sensed it.

It seems that there is really something wrong with this Adam, and maybe there will be some unexpected gains from this escort mission.

The Firebird Corps was only an escort, and the coachmen and carriages they pulled were actually hired by Mr. Doma at an additional cost.

Therefore, along the way, Qingshan and the others only need to follow the carriage all the way.

If you don't run into any bandits along the way, it's a very easy job.

However, half a month later, when the team entered the snowy area, everyone was no longer so relaxed, and everywhere they saw was a white expanse, and the temperature was dropping sharply.

Fortunately, everyone was prepared, and after entering the snowfield, they changed into thick winter clothes.

It's just that because of the snow, the speed of the carriages and horses has been somewhat affected, so everyone has to slow down the speed of the march.

In addition, after entering the snowfield, Aoyama obviously noticed that Jordan and the old members of the Firebird Corps had become a little nervous.

They all looked solemn, and the march was also very cautious, and the horses were sent out from front to back, left and right, and every hour the horses would report on the surrounding situation.

It can be seen that this is a rather cautious and experienced corps, and it is no wonder that the bureau would choose them as a transport force for logistics supplies.

In the blink of an eye, another five days passed, and there were no decent enemies along the way, except for a few blind wolf packs and beast pack attacks.

For those who still maintain a steady propulsion speed.

As for Adam, there was still no special action, but Aoyama did not relax his observation of him.

In addition to surveillance, Adam also turned on the bioradar, carefully sensing the wind and grass around him.

However, there is nothing special to be found in the sensing of the bioradar.

On this day, the procession marched to a hilly area with a snowy field.

Seeing that the sun was about to sink into the horizon, Jordan ordered the team to stop and bury the pot to cook.

-------

After dinner, the soldiers, who had been tired all day, returned to their tents and rested early.

The distribution of tents is the same as in the wings, with a capacity of six people per tent.

Although the camping conditions in the wilderness are a little harder, it is already commonplace for adventurers, so it does not affect everyone's rest at all.

After activating Blue Moon's vigilance mode, Aoyama slipped into his sleeping bag and closed his eyes.

However, Aoyama did not fall asleep, but squinted his eyes and thought about his next plan.

Just today during the day, Qingshan received a summons from Qing Ming and Lan Yi and others.

They have made contact with the Sauron Empire, the Allen Empire, and have started negotiations.

In addition, Qianyu also successfully arrived at Leo City, the capital of the Demon Empire.

Unfortunately, the information that Qianyu Tan heard was extremely limited.

Originally, I thought that Ram should at least live in Leo City after occupying the Leo Continent, but the fact is that there is no half Ram in the palace at all.

In addition, Qianyu also found out that those excavated underground palaces were all garrisoned by the army of the Demon Empire, but the Lam beast weapons such as predators did not even see a shadow.

But the strange thing is that taking down the troops stationed in the underground palace is more like a storm, because they don't have to practice at all, but keep mining all day long, and then refine these minerals into various metals or Tiangang energy blocks or something.

What the hell is going on, Aoyama has never been able to figure it out.

It took so long to unify the continent of Leo and establish a country without sending administrators.

But what are they trying to do when they are mining under the belt?

Could it be that they also want to form a powerful artillery unit like themselves?

But no matter how you think about it, it doesn't feel realistic.

Based on Aoyama's understanding of Ram, it is certain that although Ram has an extremely developed scientific and technological civilization, they do not need to manufacture conventional weapons and arm large-scale conventional troops.

In fact, the predator's ability to reproduce and evolve is enough to destroy any force that dares to stand in their way.

The Predator itself is the strongest conventional weapon.

Of course, none of this is the point.

Where is Ram's lair that Aoyama really cares about, and the information from Qianyu shows that these underground passages that have been opened out are not Ram's real base, but just mining holes dug by Ram to obtain the mineral resources that are measured.

As for Ram's lair, it must be hidden somewhere.

It's really cautious enough, Qingshan couldn't help but think with a headache.

Just when he was thinking about it, a strange reaction suddenly came from the bioradar.

The radar clearly showed a force of about a thousand men rapidly approaching.

There is a case! It seems that there should be a lot of excitement tonight, judging by the creatures, this army of 1,000 people will be able to get here in the early hours of the morning.

Sure enough, when it was time to approach the Li people, the force arrived two miles north of the garrison.

At this moment, Qingshan suddenly felt a slight change in Adam's steady breath.

In fact, this guy didn't sleep all night, although he disguised it well, but with Aoyama's intuition and sensing ability, he could clearly distinguish this.

Obviously, he also sensed the approaching troops, so his aura seemed a little disordered.

However, Adam did not inform everyone, and in the darkness, Aoyama could clearly see that Adam's gloomy eyes showed a hint of excitement, looking far away to the north.

He didn't wake everyone up, but quietly touched his weapon and continued to pretend to be asleep.

This guy really has a problem.

The force did not rest and continued to approach this direction, and soon approached within a kilometer of the camp.

Next unsurprisingly!

Woooooo Suddenly, the horn sounded!

"Enemy attack."

Although he couldn't get outside, Aoyama clearly knew that the sentry on duty had spotted the enemy and sounded the horn.
