Extra tasks

Today is destined to be an unquiet day, I unintentionally looked up, and the whole sky turned bloody at some point, and the weirdest thing is that Bart and Ben didn't react, is it only me who can see it?

The three of them squatted on one knee......

"We're here now, and if nothing else, we'll be here at noon!" Ben said, pointing to the map on the ground.

On the map, the class indicates the location, where a triangle is marked.

"Where is this?" I asked.

"It's one of our camps, where we'll get some supplies, and if we sleep at night, we won't have to worry about wild beasts attacking. Ben explained.

"Oh!"

I looked up at the sky and said to myself, "I hope my fears are wrong!"

Three hours later, we came to the place marked on the map, which should be considered the edge of the primeval forest, and further on, there was an endless primeval forest. What surprised me was that most of the people stationed here, except for a few conciliators, were ordinary soldiers, and the hunting party mentioned earlier did not see a single shadow. (Don't ask me how I know who the Mediator is, the Reconcilers can sense each other, except for me, because I haven't activated the Sigil.) )

Follow Bart as they enter through the gates of the camp, and the soldiers who come out of it will immediately salute us.

I stopped because I was confused, but the squad on the side returned the salute with skillful movements, and at the same time introduced me to the soldiers, after entering the camp, Instructor Bart went to handle the registration matters, after all, it was someone else's territory, and the etiquette was still necessary.

"Yo!"

Someone slapped him the shoulder, and when he looked back, he looked familiar, but he just couldn't remember who it was.

"You are?"

"Well, this is embarrassing!" The senior !! "Someone came to look at the end of the work as if they were complaining."

"Hahaha!" Ben laughed heartily, and finally held back his laughter, and whispered a few words in my ear.

"Is he?Lee Goss?" I shouted to draw the attention of the people passing by the camp.

"Is it necessary to be so surprised?"

An indignant Lee Gauss continued to complain: "When I heard that you were coming, I put down my work and came to see you, and you forgot me..."

Seeing Lee Gauss continue to speak with exaggerated movements, without any intention of stopping, I had to interrupt him, "Well, I'm sorry! Didn't you train at the academy? How could you be here?"

"Oh yes, this, this... It's a long story!"

Hearing Lee Goss begin to be vague, I understood that there were military secrets involved, and since he didn't mention what had happened before, I had no reason to say anything, and I seemed to be petty.

"Then don't talk about it!"

"Huh!"

Perhaps I couldn't find a topic to talk to, so Lee Goss turned around and started talking to Ben...

Of course, there will be no welcome party here, and it will be time for lunch after Instructor Bart has completed all the formalities and the group has settled down to sleep at night.

Eating here is a military industrial system, except for the guards stationed in the camp, the rest of the people must exchange military merits for food, which means that there are no idlers here.

The monsters that were killed along the way before were just usable, and after everyone had eaten, an explosive news came back from the camp that a hunting party that had gone out from here a few days ago had lost contact with the camp.

The top commander of the camp reacted immediately, and one was to form a search party and go to the place of the incident. The other is to send people back to the empire to ask for help.

Because in the camp, there are currently most Putong soldiers, purely in terms of personal strength, the commander and a few reconcilers are stronger than me and the squad, and the commander cannot leave the station at will, and this kind of thing of sending a letter will obviously not let us do it, and those only those reconcilers can return to the imperial capital as quickly and safely as possible. Of course, we were all sidelined into the search party.

......

The commander of the camp looked at everyone and began to speak in a semi-brainwashed manner:

"Thank you all for participating, I think everyone already knows the situation, what awaits us next may be an extremely vicious battle, but I believe that with your strength, we will be able to successfully complete this difficult task, let us dedicate ourselves to the empire!"

As the commander shouted forcefully, the members of the search party roared in exhilaration, and I was smacked at his fanaticism and demagoguery, and there were people who were crazy about this brainless speech.

"Then we're leaving!"

After Ban Yi finished speaking, he waved his hand and took the lead in setting off, here, after all, his title of second-phase student was not given in vain.

What makes me wonder is that Bart didn't go with him, and the gang of people did the alliance salute, but they wanted to sacrifice themselves to the Empire, which side of the mockery was this?

"He's a hostage!"

"Hostages?"

"Yes, it is not a token to identify people here, it may be a coincidence that we appeared and this incident, but others will not see it that way, and it will definitely be absolutely unsafe to leave us all in the camp, and there is no reason for us to leave, the only way is to use one person to contain the other, killing two birds with one stone." ”

"Oh!"

"As for why it is the alliance ceremony, some soldiers here are directly under the alliance, which is why the alliance turns a blind eye to certain actions of the empire, ninety percent of the things here are classified to the outside world, and any thing released can cause an uproar! The alliance needs the empire to suppress everything here. ”

"What about Gauss?"

"He, how can I say it? Lee Goss, to be precise, is a student of the third phase, with you, just for that entrance ceremony, he comes from an old aristocratic family, in other words, a bunch of old-fashioned people, who care more about formality. As for Mr. Bart, if you have a fate, you will know. Ben said he was a little helpless.

It seems that everyone who appears here has a secret. While talking to Ban, the search team arrived at the location of the incident.

"This is the location of the last communication before contact is lost!" said the leading outpost, pointing to the entrance to an underground cavern.

"The communications officer stays, and a few others guard the entrance to the cave, and the rest follow me down..."Ban neatly gave the order, turned and jumped into the underground cavern first.

I was the second to go down, and when I went down to the ground, I found that the walls here were as if they had been artificially polished, and there were black stones arranged in a straight line like mirrors, and the air seemed to be cold and damp, and a faint mist slowly surrounded the ground.
