Chapter 44: Getting Started
After several hours of bumpy journeys, the people of the Kassel Academy finally arrived at the village pictured.
Looking at the more barren villages than in the photo, and the terrified gazes in the shadows, Ewen felt extremely troubled.
It has been at least two months since the accident, and there are still people alive in this village, which is not a good thing, but it means that the three generations have recovered a long time ago and no longer need to eat a lot.
In this way, even if it is the best outcome, they will have to face a three-generation species that is in its heyday and fully prepared, and in the worst case, the three-generation species has even left the place and is lurking.
At the speed at which dragons learn, it won't be long before these three generations can fully adapt to the new world and awaken more sleeping dragons.
When the time comes, facing a group of dragons who are fully aware of human technology, the half-breeds will lose a lot even if they can win, and there is a possibility that the existence of the dragons will be exposed to the public.
I didn't expect that to be a possibility, even Ewen couldn't be completely calm. After a short rest, they quickly arranged to meet the people here, and they entered the jungle in batches according to the pre-set plan under the guidance of the guide.
The team is divided into three squads, with Team A led by Ewen and Caesar at the forefront.
Caesar's Words: The Scythe can help them detect movements around them on a large scale, and with the experienced Commissioner Ewen, they can minimize the possibility of the execution team being raided by this dragon.
Zheng Shu and Senior Valery led Team B in the middle, and Zheng Shu sensed the specific position of the dragon and guided the direction of the entire execution team.
Valery is a graduating Kassel cadet, second only to Commissioner Ewen in the team, and his spirit is dustless and has the strongest protection ability, so the main task is to protect Zheng Shu from being attacked. With his words, even if the front team did not detect the whereabouts of the three generations and was attacked by the other party, he could support it for a period of time and wait for rescue.
Chu Zihang led the rest of the team to form Team C at the end of the other teams, and their main task was to act as a mobile force, and when the other teams came into contact with the three generations, they immediately went to support.
Truth be told, Zheng Shu showed the ability to impress others at the beginning of the mission, and according to Ewen's experience, a search mission in this environment usually lasts for more than a few days, and can even last for weeks if the target is unlucky or the target is too good at hiding.
This is still supported by sufficient manpower and a large number of equipment, and if they follow their current configuration, it will take more than a month just to search the entire dense forest.
Zheng Shu's way of acting was completely different from before, as soon as he entered the jungle, he pointed in a direction and asked the whole team to move there, and the team found abnormal traces after advancing for less than an hour according to his guidance.
No matter how well this dragon is hidden, when it reaches a certain size, it will still have an irrepressible effect on its surroundings.
Around a tree hole, Ewen's Team A found several severed plants. Note that it is cut off rather than broken, although ordinary large creatures will break plants when walking, the gap caused by it will definitely not be so flat, especially one of the branches, the finger-thick branch cut is as smooth as a mirror.
The one that can cause this kind of trace is most likely the three generations they are looking for.
Based on the surrounding traces, Ewen speculated that the three-generation plant lived in the hollow for some time until about a month ago, when the hollow was no longer suitable for its size.
After a little calculation of the size of the hole in the tree hole, Ewen deduced that the three-generation species was close to the size of the Siberian tiger when it left. This also corresponds to the fact that in the beginning, only small animals such as chickens, ducks and dogs were lost in the village.
Continuing to follow Zheng Shu's direction, the team members noticed that blood stains similar to those in the photo began to appear in their surroundings. Although some of the blood stains have become less noticeable due to the passage of time, there are still a lot of residues.
Perhaps because the deterrent left by the three generations of the species itself is too strong, these bloodstains are basically not touched by animals except for the influence of plant growth, and there are not even traces of ants on the bloodstains.
With these discoveries, the members of the team were more confident, and Ewen also felt refreshed, feeling that the headmaster's wisdom was really not something that ordinary people like me could understand, and that it was possible to find a talent with such a specialty.
After moving forward for a while, the traces found began to decrease instead of increasing, and Ewen instead drew the attention of the group, which meant that they were already approaching the range of movement in the three generations.
As highly intelligent creatures, dragons are arrogant but not stupid, and when they know that they are being hunted, they will also carefully avoid the places where they live and go further away to hunt.
I looked up at the sky and saw that the sun had begun to set. Out of an abundance of caution, although the others were not tired, Ewen signaled the rest of the team to come closer and camp on the spot for the night.
The people who participated in the mission this time were all elites, and it didn't take long for them to have a suitable location for camping. In order to prevent the enemy from using stealth spirits to sneak attack the camp at night, Eun also spread various sensor devices around the camp.
From infrared sensing to vibration pressure sensing, various sensing devices from the equipment department can immediately sense when a creature passes by, and even use it as a bomb to attack the enemy if necessary. Moreover, the interior of all devices has been modified with alchemy, and will not be perceived by the dragons of the Bronze and Fire Lords.
It can be said that the batch of sensors arranged by Guang Youen is worth more than 50 million US dollars if they are taken out for auction.
After having a relatively safe camp, the half-bloods were also a little relieved, but after all, it was a mission, in order to avoid being discovered by the enemy, the people in the camp did not dare to heat the food, and could only gnaw some cold and hard marching dry food prepared in advance.
However, no one in the team objected to this, and even Caesar, who had always been pampered, only silently gnawed on his dry food, so that Eun, who was originally worried about accidents, was also a little relieved.
After settling down, Ewen looked at Zheng Shu, who was gnawing on dry food, and his eyes also unconsciously sparkled.
Seeing Zheng Shu's terrifying search ability, he was now thinking about how to propose that Professor Schneider keep him in the execution department after this mission. If it really doesn't work, it's a big deal to see if there are any beautiful seniors in the executive department and hook him in.
For the execution department, most of the time their headache is not how to take out the opponent, but how to find the opposite.
Zheng Shu's almost illegal search ability is simply a tiger for the group of murderers in the execution department, and with his help, most of the mission execution department can descend from the sky and kick the opponent's dog head before the target can react.
