Volume II Chapter 418 Corpses are also resources
Just when Qianhai and the others thought that the ground battle was about to end, the roar of the beast and the horn of the soul clan suddenly sounded on the ice field at the same time. None of them thought that at this time, the soul clan and the ghost beast would actually be able to launch another charge!
But in the next second, everyone found that the hostile sides on the battlefield were very tacit, and began to fiercely compete for the corpses scattered on the ice field?
In less than ten minutes, on the vast ice field battlefield, all the severed limbs and broken bodies left after a night of fierce fighting were all snatched away.
Qianhai and a few people looked at this scene in the distance in a daze, and only then did they realize that living in the harsh environment of the Arctic Ice Domain, whether it is for the soul clan, or for ghosts and evil beasts, even corpses are scarce resources.
As the warm sunlight dispelled the darkness of the ice field, the blizzard, which lasted all night, gradually calmed down. The slowly falling snowflakes shimmer in the sunlight, which inexplicably makes people feel a kind of joy of rebirth.
Standing on the city wall and looking out, the terrifying beast tide surging in the darkness had long since receded out of sight. If it weren't for the tranquility of the ice field, which had been stained red by the blood of the ghostly beasts, everything last night seemed to be nothing more than a nightmare.
And everyone on the city wall knew in their hearts that the nightmare would continue tonight, and it would surely be even worse.
The Soul Clan officer who was in charge of arranging the defense of Qianhai and several people yesterday led a team of Soul Clan soldiers to the city wall, and when he saw that Qianhai and several people were gathering together and chatting easily, he walked directly towards Qianhai with an excited expression.
The Soul Clan officer stepped forward and grabbed Qian Hai's hand, "Last night, you rushed down the city wall to attract the ghost beasts to give up the siege and kill the leader of the ghost beasts, right?" Your bravery has relieved the defenders of the city walls on both sides of the city to relieve a lot of pressure to defend the city! ”
"Hahaha, polite, polite, this is what we should do," his hand was tightly held by a big man, which made Qianhai a little uncomfortable, he smiled and withdrew his hand, "Then our record, you see..."
The Soul Clan officer didn't wait for Qian Hai to finish speaking, and hurriedly said, "Of course, we will record this battle for you alone." Also,"
The Soul Clan officer solemnly saluted the Qianhai and the others, "I'm very sorry, I doubted your strength yesterday, I hope you can forgive me." Your extraordinary bravery and outstanding strength are admirable, thank you for your dedication! ”
"It's serious, it's serious, it's not so exaggerated," Qian Hai hurriedly picked up the Soul Clan officer, patted the other party on the shoulder and smiled: "We are very happy to be recognized by our Soul Clan friends." ”
The soul clan values the most powerful and truly strong people, and when they heard the other party call themselves friends, the officer laughed heartily and said, "Yes, we are friends!" You are our esteemed friends of the Soul Clan, my name is Talosebu, and I am honored to know you! ”
"Hahaha, we're glad to meet you, Talosebu." Qian Hai said happily: "You are the first friend we have met here, this beast tide will not come again until the evening, let's go and celebrate now!" ”
Talosebu smiled and declined: "Haha, I'm afraid it won't work today, you kept a night last night, and I brought someone here to rest in place of you." Besides, our soul clan is strictly forbidden to drink alcohol privately during wartime, and when the beast tide recedes this time, I will invite everyone to drink! ”
Qianhai said a little disappointed: "Huh?? You really have such a rule! Relax when it's time to relax, and bring out the best when you're fighting! ”
"Do you think anyone is as unreliable as you are?"
An Xiu scolded Qian Hai angrily, walked up to Talosebu, and handed the token to the other party, "I'm sorry, I lost two elite soldiers last night, and my equipment was damaged a lot, so I put them all over there." ”
Talosebu looked at Anshu in a daze and asked incredulously, "You mean, you only lost two skeleton soldiers last night!?" ”
An Xiu was afraid that the other party would misunderstand, so he quickly explained: "No, there are more than two. Those two were pulled off the wall by the demon beast because of my mishandling. In addition, thirty-six elite soldiers were injured to varying degrees. ”
"What!?" After hearing this, Talosebu was even more surprised and said, "You mean, after the battle before dawn, there are more than a hundred skeleton soldiers who are completely uninjured!?" ”
An Xiu looked at Talosebu's surprised expression and was a little overwhelmed, and nodded, "Well, that's right." ”
Talosebu looked at An Xiu carefully and asked tentatively, "Excuse me, have you received professional military training in the past on the Arcane Continent, or have you specialized in commander-in-chief command?" ”
An Xiu was slightly stunned, "I've never been to the Arcane Continent, let alone been trained by them, why do you ask that?" ”
"You're not from the Arcane Continent?? But you're just..."
"Hahaha," Qianhai was afraid that An Xiu would make a mistake if he continued to speak, so he hurriedly interjected: "Talosebu, although this kid looks like he is from the Arcane Continent, he and I were born on a small island in the Inland Sea. I'm a demon half-blood, maybe this kid is also a half-blood~"
"I'm not—"
"An Xiu," Lao Bai stretched out his hand and pressed on An Xiu's shoulder, and said with a smile: "There are many descendants left by the major civilizations on the Inland Sea, and we will definitely find out your background in the future." ”
Seeing An Xiu looking at Lao Bai with a complicated expression, Talo Sebu said with admiration: "So that's the case, An Xiu, you are really a natural military genius, I have never seen someone control the skeleton elite soldiers for the first time, and they can achieve such a low battle damage ratio." ”
"Don't praise him, this kid is purely calculating, and that's all he can do." Qian Hai teased with a smile.
An Xiu retorted angrily: "Hmph, I don't have any skills, so why don't you do it, this should be your responsibility." ”
"Hahaha, I'm not giving you a chance to perform, otherwise the credit won't be all mine." Qianhai turned his head and said to Talosebu: "Then let's go and rest first, and when the beast tide is over, we must drink together." ”
"Yes, definitely!" Talosebu readily agreed, and watched Qian Haiyi walk down the city wall.
Back at the hotel in the city, the warmth and comfort of the store once again made everyone's fatigue come from the inside.
Although the actual battle they participated in last night was not as fierce as before, the pressure on the battlefield that had been fought all night was not easier than before.
So, after a full meal in the restaurant on the first floor, several people returned to their respective rooms to start resting. I slept until it was dark in the afternoon, and Qianhai woke up completely, cleaned up briefly, and beckoned everyone downstairs to eat.
And when Sister Wan led Ammo to open the door, everyone was surprised to find that Lola, who had always liked to sleep the most, was not in the room.
