Chapter Seventy-Three: A Great Reward
Not long after Leng Feng and the others lay down, there was a thunderous sound of horses' hooves on the official road, coming quickly from far and near. A hint of joy appeared on Han Li's face, and he roared in a low voice, "Be careful with me, if anyone makes suspicious moves, or can't control his mouth, Lao Tzu will kill him first." β
"Don't worry, Captain. We still want to follow the boss!" the group of people whispered, and then the dense forest fell into dead silence once more.
After a while, a large number of black-clothed warriors on horseback, led by a man who exuded a strong and bloodthirsty aura, rushed to the edge of the acacia forest. The man frowned, looking at the fallen trees not far away, and the battlefield full of chaos. The big hand quickly lifted upward. Behind him, many knights stopped in unison. A team of nearly four or five hundred people, riding horses with straight waists, did not come out of the slightest sound. A strong aura came to his face. The elite soldiers of a hundred battles are afraid that this is nothing more than that.
"Search me and see if there's any alive. Surround me with this and carpet search for enemy spies. A trace of sadness appeared in the man's eyes, and he clearly knew in his heart that it would be difficult for these hunter brothers to save their lives under the attack of a great magician. At this time, we can only do our best to obey the fate of heaven, and I hope that these heroic hunters will still have survivors.
"Yes, sir. The black-clothed guards turned over and dismounted, and under the leadership of their respective captains, they quickly rushed towards the woods. Some of them quickly chased after the marks of battle on the ground and trees. Others, under the captain's shout, looked at the hunters lying in every corner of the woods. Such a heavy loss made these people look angry.
When a black-clothed guard cautiously turned over Han Li's body and carefully checked his breathing pulse, an undetectable ** sound came out, and the black-clothed guard shouted with ecstasy, "Captain, this person is not dead, he is still alive." β
The sudden roar immediately caused a commotion. Some water mages rushed over quickly. He spared no magic power to heal Han Li, who was seriously injured. The black-clothed guards, who were carefully searching for the survivors, erupted from time to time to cry, and in this wood, sixteen survivors were found.
After the treatment of the water magician, the pale faces of these people gradually had a trace of blood. The man leading the team strode into the woods, stared at the scarred men on the ground, and asked with respect, "May I ask who is the captain?"
Han Li struggled weakly to sit up, but it was only with the help of a black-clothed guard that he was able to achieve this simple goal. Gasping for breath quickly, he said weakly: "We are the third squad under the command of Commander Lin, and we are ordered to intercept the enemy spies. I'm Captain Han Li. β
Looking at this person's hideous injuries that could be seen in the bones, his face showed an unbearable look. The man sighed lightly and turned his head to look away, and said in a low voice, "Is the mission completed?"
"Lord Qiyu, Commander Lin took the lead and unfortunately died in battle. Fortunately, the mission has been completed, and all the spies along the way have been annihilated. It's just that the loss is too great. Han Li looked at the group of friends lying in wait, and he couldn't hold back his tears anymore.
The man's serious face shook violently, and he said in disbelief: "Annihilation of all, has that great magician ever been caught?"
"My third squad, Leng Feng and Psius, killed the Great Mage with their own hands. Han Li knew that his credit was not small, and of course he would not forget the two Leng Feng who risked their lives to complete the task.
The man nodded, and asked suspiciously, "Leng Feng is the protΓ©gΓ© of Martial King Wang Zhen?"
"Exactly. β
"Okay, great. He is worthy of Wang Zhen's protΓ©gΓ©!" The man burst into a burst of happy laughter, waved his hand and motioned to the black-clothed guards to transport these lucky surviving warriors back to Sky Star City to recuperate from their injuries. The remains of these warriors who sacrificed their lives for the country were sorted out for burial.
When Leng Feng sat in a carriage, he looked at Han Li and whispered, "Captain, your injuries are okay!" Looking at the other party's deep injuries, his face was full of concern.
Han Li smiled slightly, staring at Leng Feng with dead eyes, and said gratefully, "If it weren't for you tonight, I'm afraid we would have been dead for a long time." Without further ado, from today onwards, you will be my brother. β
Psius struggled to get up and said, "Stinky boy, I'm going to change my name to second brother in the future." The big hand patted Leng Feng's shoulder hard, and he smirked happily.
"Big brother, second brother. Leng Feng stretched out his hand, and the three of them held it tightly and didn't let go for a long time. experienced a purgatory-like bloody battle together, and the relationship between the three suddenly became a lot closer. They all regard each other as siblings.
Han Li whispered, "It is estimated that we will stay in Heavenly Star City for a few days, and we must not take the review above lightly. As long as the matter of Commander Lin is erased, he will definitely be able to deal with the past. β
Leng Feng frowned and thought for a moment, then said with a smile: "Big brother, Commander Lin is dead, the various squads have suffered heavy casualties, and you are the only one left, isn't it time for you to take a step forward." β
Psius whispered with excitement on his face: "Big brother, what the third brother said is not unreasonable!"
Han Li glanced at Leng Feng bitterly, and joked happily, "Can you not be so smart?" As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them laughed happily.
At the Heavenly Star City City Guard, a separate courtyard was demarcated, and Leng Feng and the others were housed. Idlers and others are not allowed to approach, and every day there are water magicians to treat their injuries, and all kinds of elixirs to heal injuries are constantly being sent. Three meals a day are taken care of. In addition to the tiresome censorship that goes on, it can almost be said that the most laid-back and enjoyable days of the cold front.
In the face of scrutiny, these people have done nothing to account. This includes your position at the time of the battle, as well as your route of travel. Who did you fight with, how many people you killed, etc. The remnants of the third squad pushed everything on the head of Commander Lin. The third squad, which was originally used as cannon fodder, has been transformed into a kingdom hero who is ordered to cut off its back and tail to chase and kill.
After the on-site inspection by the black-clothed guards, and the results deduced from various clues, they are basically consistent with what the third team said. And so the long review came to an end. According to the size of their contributions, the number of enemies killed, etc., each person was listed in detail on the list of meritorious contributions, and then handed them up step by step.
On this day, the third team, which had long since healed, sat together and chatted and farted. The noisy laughter continued. A group of black-clothed guards pushed the door and walked in, and under the gaze of everyone, a tall man with thick eyebrows and big eyes slowly walked in.
Seeing this, Han Li hurriedly stood up, bowed and saluted, "See your lord." β
Leng Feng and the others were stunned, and they all got up and saluted respectfully. This person, nicknamed the butcher, is the leader of the black-clothed guards, and he is only one step away from stepping into the ranks of the Martial King, and his strength is unfathomable. The Black Guard is a spy agency that is more tightly organized and powerful than the hunter, and has always been trusted by His Majesty, far from being comparable to the hunter.
The man happily waved his hand to signal everyone to be exempt, and looked at everyone with admiration on his face. Nodding slightly, he said loudly: "You have made great contributions to the first battle of Acacia Lin, Han Li, the former captain of the third squad, was promoted to the position of commander because of his merits. Leng Feng and Psius were promoted to captain after their outstanding achievements. The rest of the people have an equal sceles card that goes up one level and a bounty as a reward. β
When the award was read, they all cheered excitedly. You must know that the level of the waist card has risen, but it is directly linked to the rich benefits. Everyone is a human-level waist card, and the benefits they enjoy are enough to make ordinary hunters blush. Leng Feng and Psius glanced at each other, as the captain of the team, he was wearing a ground-level waist card, and the defensive magic array embedded inside could even resist the full force of a high-level martial artist. At a critical moment, it is a good thing that can save your life.
"I hope you will continue to work hard and make new contributions to the kingdom and your majesty. Tu Tiejun, nicknamed the butcher, joked happily. smiled and waved goodbye to everyone, and left.
"Congratulations boss. β
"Our good days have come. β
"Boss, you must have a treat!" the hunters screamed with excitement.
"Please, of course, please. Let's go to the Tianlong Leisure Club, let's get drunk. Han Li glanced at Leng Feng with bad intentions and closed his mouth happily.
Psius bumped Leng Feng's shoulder and laughed in a low voice: "The eldest brother is thinking about ghosts again, if you really go there, will the third brother still collect money?"
Leng Feng, who reacted, laughed for a while. He said solemnly in a low voice: "Once or twice is okay once in a while, but if I do it too many times, I will become a poor bastard." β
The muscles on Psius's face moved, and he held back for a long time before he scolded: "Damn, I don't know who the hell, the clubhouse is opened by you, what kind of poor people are playing with me here?" As soon as the words came out, the whole room suddenly fell into a dead silence. Everyone stared at Leng Feng with shocked faces.
Han Li slapped his forehead, pointed at Prosus and scolded with a smile, "With your broken mouth, can you pretend to be a doorkeeper." The crowd had red eyes and rushed towards Leng Feng with a fierce momentum. A terrible scream suddenly rang out from the room.
When the group returned to the imperial capital, the hungry wolf seemed to occupy an ultra-luxurious box in the Tianlong Leisure Club, eating and drinking. Of course, Leng Feng is responsible for all expenses, and Leng Feng doesn't need to spend money anyway. Tossing and turning until late at night, Han Li and the others, who had eaten and drunk enough, dispersed drunkenly.
Leng Feng returned to the room dizzily and fell asleep, these bastards came to pour themselves wine one by one, even the iron man couldn't stand it, and couldn't help but sigh that he was not ladylike when he met someone, and he fell asleep after a while.
