After five days of marching, all the new cadets of the Royal Military Academy arrived in the Cologne Mountains without any injuries or stragglers.

After that, without any rest, the five classes, led by their respective instructors, went to various mountain passes, and immediately set off from different starting points to start this graduation exercise.

"Be careful after entering the mountain, the record is not important, safety first, I believe this is also the hope of the marshal. ”

Instructor Tim earnestly admonished, his expression was quite worried, obviously he also suspected that the provost had a plan, since Marshal Fontaine could not rush back, he was a little lieutenant colonel who could not help.

"Yes, sir!" Chang Le saluted, took a few steps back, and turned to face everyone, "Search the formation, let's go!"

From the moment of entering the mountain, the "search and hunt" operation officially began.

Chang Le knew very well that he and the fifth squad at this time were the real "prey" in this exercise, and from now on, all actions must be cautious.

The mountain roads were rugged, the jungles were thick, and the principle was that no one could be sacrificed, so he gave up sending the vanguard and flanks, and gathered all fifty-one people, and advanced slowly in as open battle formation as possible, with those with swords and shields outside, and those with bows and arrows inside.

But in too narrow places, it still had to become a column, and at this time it could only speed up the pace and hurry through.

If you want to spread the formation to the mountainsides on both sides, not to mention the obstacles caused by the dense forest, the steep slope alone is difficult to overcome.

Rising from the plains of Havilland, the Cologne Mountains are so tall and hideous that they burst out of the abyss of hell and reach 3,000 meters in the air like the claws of a giant demon.

Not to mention climbing the peaks on both sides, even if you look up to see the snow-covered peak, you have to hold down your helmet hard to avoid falling.

"Chang Sler, this map is wrong!" Xu Si stretched the map out in front of Chang Le's eyes, pointing and pointing out the difference between the distribution of mountain roads and what he actually saw.

Chang Le smiled slightly and pushed away Xu Si's hand:

"It's not uncommon for maps to be inaccurate, drawing maps can cut corners, and the terrain changes with time and seasons, so soldiers must know how to overcome difficulties. ”

The skinny monkey in front looked back:

"Boss, I bet that the provost must have the correct map for those noble classes!"

"Take your brother with you, don't get distracted!" Chang Le reminded sharply.

The fifth class is still divided into five squads, led by Lola, Skinny Monkey and others, but today there is no difference between the "dragon team" and the "sheep team", all of them are elite soldiers.

But this time the opponents are no longer the noble young masters, the provost must have arranged some kind of "hospitality" in the mountains, and it is not surprising that there are many powerful enemies, even including the 5th Division of the Guards surrounding the mountain, which is also said to be the provost's descendant.

Therefore, while Chang Le used a smile to relieve the tension of his classmates, he was already on guard, and his body seemed to be a tightened bowstring.

There are no traces in the mountains, and the occasional ape cry or birdsong brings out the tranquility of the valley even more.

"Right front, on alert!"

With Chang Le's low and powerful command, there was a chaotic sound in the grass under his feet, and the whole formation changed rapidly, the shield bearer pressed forward, the archer retreated slightly, the arrow pointed to the right front, and the bowstring opened until it was nearly full.

"There's indeed movement!" When silence returned to the scene, Lola pointed in a certain direction, "Boss, I'll scout!"

Chang Le thought for a while, and assigned Phil the thin monkey and Lola to go with him, these two people are one strong and the other alert, they are quite suitable adventure partners, and they are also the strongest combination he can send in his hands.

He didn't leave easily, firstly, because he didn't want the large army to lose his command, and secondly, he also knew in his heart that there might be a few orcs ahead, just a few simple "prey".

The judgment is based on his own nose, after the blue wolf soul is upgraded to level 4, Changle's sense of smell is 2,500 times that of ordinary people, and it is easy to judge the type, number and direction of the target in an environment with little wind.

And Chang Le's frequent sniffing and smelling movements, although they did not attract everyone's attention, did not hide from Fanny beside him, after all, the girl's mind has always been on him.

"You're like a dog. Fanny grinned and commented, "Smell something?"

"Hehe, I smell your stupidity, respected knightess, how did you get engaged to a dog?"

Chang Le smiled reluctantly, he couldn't forget Fanny who said that "untouchables are trash", and at this moment, although the phrase "like a dog" was a joke, it also stung him again.

He had already decided that when the exercise was over, he must confess his status as a pariah, and no matter what Fanny chose at that time, he should no longer hide it from her.

With Fanny's sensitivity, of course, she found that Chang Le's mood was wrong, but she thought that she was joking and using inappropriate words, so she quickly explained and apologized.

Chang Le only tried to smile more naturally, and nodded in understanding.

At this moment, there was a sudden roar of anger in the dense forest, followed by the sound of fighting and killing, and the suddenness of the momentum shocked some of the people in the fifth class, and they almost shot the arrows in their hands.

"What's the panic, keep in formation, all forward!"

Chang Le didn't expect that he sent Lola to reconnoitre, but there was a battle, it was estimated that it was not a surprise attack, but that the female man was too belligerent, and he saw that the other party's strength was not strong, so he did it directly.

When he arrives at the scene with a large army, everything is over, and Lola grins and stomps on the orc corpse with a "you're late" expression.

There were five corpses, all males, who looked quite similar to humans, but with particularly strong arms, greenish complexion, and extraordinarily wide jaws.

Changle immediately recognized that this was a common orc on the Yurian continent, with a strange name, called "Japanese Clan".

The origin of the name comes from the special green component of their skin, which allows these orcs to absorb sunlight energy like plants.

The well-developed mandibular and molars allow the Japanese to chew rough and hard food to supplement the nutrients that photosynthesis cannot provide.

These abilities make the Japanese extremely hard-working, as long as there is water to drink and light, they can persist for a long time, so many farmers domesticate them into coolies, buying an adult Japanese orc costs five gold coins, but the future savings are far above this amount.

Since they are orcs, they will always be ferocious, and the Japanese are the same, but they rarely take the initiative to attack humans, and they will only kill people when their territory is disturbed, and their individual strength is average, if they don't have weapons, they are not much stronger than ordinary human strong men.

If the "prey" released into the mountains by the Guards were all non-combat orcs like the Japanese, this "search and hunt" mission would still be quite easy to complete.

This is also understandable, the academy has limited funds, and if the expensive Thunder Clan or Knife Clan orcs are purchased and put into the mountains, not to mention whether there will be major casualties among the noble students, the academy itself may also go bankrupt.

The knowledge about the Japanese comes from Blue Moon, Meizu is also an orc, and he naturally likes to collect alien males as servants, so Blue Moon is more concerned about the information of the orc race, and relish it when chatting with Chang Le, especially willing to analyze the ability of the males of each race "that aspect".

Chang Le didn't care about the "ability" of the Japanese people, so he didn't remember it, but seeing this kind of orc who was not murderous, the students happily came forward to visit, and Lola proudly cut off the right ear of the corpse, which always made him feel uncomfortable.

Cutting off the right ear of the prey as a proof of the battle is the rule of the exercise, and Chang Le has nothing to say, but he feels that Lola's expression should not be so happy when she goes under the knife.

Not to mention the "female man" Lola, even Fanny, who has always been gentle and gentle, is also very happy.

It's not surprising that, in Fanny's opinion, the untouchables who are also humans are all "trash", not to mention the orcs who often mutilate humans, which are simply "pests".

The smell of orcs still wafted in the air, Chang Le kept inhaling, took a few steps, roughly judged the direction, and then closed his eyes, opened his soul vision, and countless spatial veins extended into the distance.

He turned into a spider in the center of the giant web, feeling the slightest disturbance in space, and soon made a discovery.

Not far from the side of the stone wall is a cave that is not too deep, the entrance of the cave is covered with vegetation, and several orcs are hidden inside.

Judging from the smell and the outline of the target, it should also be a Japanese tribe, and they are all women and children, some orcs with towering chests, small orcs holding the size of human children, shrunk into a ball at this moment, shivering.

The few males killed by Lola should have wanted to protect their wives and children just now, which made Chang Le feel more and more depressed.

Lola noticed Chang Le's actions, walked with blood on her hands, and followed his example to raise her head and twitch her nose quickly:

"Boss, what's the smell? Why can't I smell it?"

"Nothing, go back to the original path and keep going!"

Chang Le would rather lose some battle points than slaughter women and children, even though the other party is not human.

But before they could walk back to the mountain path, they heard a few sobs from behind, and although they were weak, they could not escape the ears of a master like Lola.

"And the orcs!" Lola immediately drew her sword and turned back.

"Stop!" Chang Le finally couldn't help but show his attitude, "It's just a few orc women and children!

Everyone in Class 5 has always obeyed Chang Le's orders, but this time everyone's expressions were very surprised, and they expressed their confusion:

"Boss! That's an orc!"

"Women and children, did I hear me right?"

"Boss, isn't the roast suckling pig we ate last time also the women and children in the pig?

Chang Le's face was gloomy, and he shouted:

"When you go back, you can tell me to fuck off! But in this mountain, you must listen to me!"

One sentence suppressed all the discussions, making the scene silent.

His eyes were like knives, and he glanced around the crowd, and a low roar echoed through the valley:

"Whoever doesn't listen, get out!"
