Chapter 46: Temptation
Fifty-two kilometers to the north of the Qinghua gathering place, there are no herbivores near here, and the wild grass is not taken care of, so it grows wildly on its own, and it is more than one person tall at a glance.
Homer is walking cautiously in this meadow with his two brothers, who were originally wanderers who depend on each other in the wild, and have received a mission from the Supreme Commander of the South Settlement, Bu Tingshan, to reconnoiter and explore the south, looking for target laboratories and human settlements.
The weapons that Aragai had brought with him illustrated the potential of that lab, which was too tempting for the Supreme Commander.
Tall weeds are good for their own hiding, but they also make it difficult for them to spot enemies.
Fortunately, He Ma didn't have the luxury, and he didn't want to really find out what the situation was, he was just a B-level ability, and he grabbed a lot of money near the billet south, and he just had to pay a hard fee, if he really made a big discovery, he would be hated by others for being in the limelight, and his own safety would not be guaranteed.
Although the people of Bi Nan repeatedly assured them that the enemy they were scouting was weak, and the scouts they caught spying on them on a few occasions also confirmed their claims, he heard from his friends that a B+-level capable person had gone and never returned, which could not help but make people's hearts tremble.
It's just that often the will of heaven is easy to make people, and things backfire, and the group walked, but his second brother suddenly stopped.
"Brother! Look at that, that's people! ”
The second brother, He Niu, shouted in a low voice excitedly, if the clues can be found, the reward given by the Billet South Gathering Place is to give the right of residence, which is a great benefit for the wanderer.
He Niu pushed aside a tuft of weeds, and He Ma and his third brother He Yang leaned over to look, and through the gap, they could see a row of heavily armed soldiers in the distance, leaning side by side, blocking their way.
The sunlight reflected a blinding light on the shields held by those men, and the weapons they held were Homa had never seen before in the south of the billet, all black military uniforms, cold faces, they stood upright, motionless, and silently did not make a sound.
He Ma secretly complained in his heart, and wanted to slow down and think about it in the long run, but the second He Niu couldn't wait to close the grass and go to the rear to report the good news.
Homer shook his head and could only follow.
In the matter of the desolate sacrifice, some people judged that he had found a laboratory and a small gathering place, and he had a different heart, so he simply became the emperor of the soil, so there was no return. This conjecture is not unreasonable, after all, he seems to have left a hand in his hand when he reported the location of the laboratory, and only said a general direction, but did not say the distance or location.
Therefore, now that Bi Nan hires and dispatches wanderers to carry out reconnaissance work, he often has to be accompanied by his own people in a gathering place with sufficient strength and trust, who are used to supervise them, so that they cannot be deceived.
The overseer of Homer's group is called Jiao Ding, a B+-level ability, and an old man in the Billet South Gathering Area.
This time, he not only supervised the three of them, but also the other wanderers in groups of threes, threes, twos, and twos, for a total of five groups.
When He Niu returned to the camp with panting and ecstatic, the other groups were sitting around discussing something.
"I think we can test it first, we are all capable people, and there are 5 of them who are B-level ranks, and I have observed that those soldiers are just ordinary people......
"I think it's better to be safe, let's just report the situation back, and the specific things will be arranged......"
"I'm in favor of testing first, ordinary people are just ordinary people after all, even if we kill them all, it doesn't matter, just leave a few live questions to ask!"
“......”
Looking at this heated discussion, He Niu still didn't understand that the information he had detected was outdated, and he was stunned for a moment.
The two brothers He Ma and He Yang rushed up, and the people who were discussing saw He Ma hurriedly greeting: "Old He? You see it, soldiers. ”
After all, he is a B-level high-level capable person, and he can have his own place wherever he puts it, while He Niu, who is weaker, is naturally ignored.
"Yes." He Ma patted He Niu on the shoulder, walked over to them and sat down. A trace of unwillingness flashed in He Niu's eyes.
"It's a long line, we've all seen it, those soldiers, disciplined, look really imposing, and the soldiers in Bi Nan can't compare."
Homer sat down and said in a deep voice.
"Hey, so what, if you don't have the ability, you can only be a lamb to the slaughter!"
One pouted his lips in disdain, and Homer, although he felt that something was wrong, only smiled bitterly and did not refute.
"Okay, okay," said the old man who had been squinting on the side, he was the prison soldier Jiao Ding, "Old He, tell me, how to act?" ”
"I think we can report back as the Supreme Commander instructed us to detect the enemy, after all, they have set up a guard line here, which we have not seen, which shows that we are quite close, and even have reached our destination...... I'll leave the rest to the Billet Army......"
Jiao Ding shook his head, the older he gets, the more he loves the power position, and he wants to make some achievements to make Tingshan use him more.
"That's not right, since we're scouting, how can we retreat when we reach the enemy? You have to find out what they do! ”
Someone next to him immediately accosted: "Lao He, you are too careful in everything!" If you want me to say, we'll kill his mother, maybe we just take over his gathering place! ”
This is trying to do the same thing as Chen Ning at the beginning, if Yunhe is still in power now, it is not impossible to realize this, but unfortunately, with Qinghua's defense now, he is a fool's dream.
Jiao Ding smiled and waved his hand: "It's too radical, we are all human compatriots, let's talk about it first, talk about it first......"
Homer made up his mind to be a shrunken turtle, and all of them seemed to have forgotten about the missing Wasteland, if it was good that Wasteland was really the overlord here, they might still be able to talk about it, if it was another situation...... If the other party can solve the desolate sacrifice, it will naturally solve them!
In fact, Jiao Ding also faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, but the defense line formed by ordinary soldiers was like paper paste in his eyes, seducing him with tricks, and he was fascinated by the inflated mentality held high all the way.
Jiao Ding is the one who is qualified to make the final decision here, since he has expressed his attitude, others naturally have nothing to say if they want to take the benefits of Billet Nan.
The plan was agreed, prepare today, and tomorrow directly find those soldiers and call their messengers out.
In the evening, everyone returned to their tents after having eaten, and the three Homer brothers were no exception.
Before closing his eyes and going to sleep, Homer solemnly confessed: "If there is a conflict tomorrow, we will avoid it from afar, and don't make such a show!" ”
He Yang nodded, he had always obeyed his brother's words, but He Niu's eyes implied disbelief and disdain.
............
The next morning, Jiao Ding led a group of people straight through the grass, and sure enough, the group of soldiers was still there, maintaining the same posture as yesterday, seeing this scene, Homer's heart became more and more uneasy.
He finally knew the cause of the uneasiness, those warriors could not be the soldiers that the Wanderer Desolate Sacrifice could bring out in a short period of time, that is to say, his conjecture yesterday was infinitely close to the second!
Unbeknownst to Jiao Ding and the others, they pushed aside the grass and walked towards the soldiers blatantly.
The soldiers found that Qi Qi crossed the shield and raised his guns: "Someone from the front has reported his identity!" ”
The voice is majestic and imposing.
