Volume II: The War of Strife Chapter 68 Planning
The next day, Wu Jue came back, his eyes were bloodshot, and he probably hadn't slept all night.
Accompanied everyone to have breakfast, and then let the squad gather, some of the squad had one or two more, which was made up later, after all, more than a hundred people died!
Wu Jue stood at the front and spoke: "Today, as a soldier, I will give you the first task, go out of the city today, and each team will bring back at least one fierce beast." ”
After saying this, the calm camp suddenly became noisy.
"What!
"It's going to kill us!"
"Why?"
“......”
I don't understand, I don't understand, the fierce beast is the god of death for ordinary people, and it's too late to hide, and he goes to commit suicide.
Many people felt that Wu Jue was joking.
Maybe someone thinks that such an army is bad?
No, it's that this matter is too big, and they only cultivate a few months longer than ordinary people. If you think about it, isn't it just for them to seek death?
It's not like I didn't see what was going on outside the city.
There was only humility in the ranks, and they were silent.
They know that this is the price of eating that meat. It is not unreasonable that any soldier in Demon Dragon City is so powerful.
Wu Jue didn't stop it immediately, but listened to these complaints for a while, and only roared angrily when someone began to question him: "Shut up, you bastards, this is an order, you are soldiers, and it is your duty to obey orders." Don't think about running away, the veterans of Demon Dragon City will monitor the periphery, and if they find out, they will be executed directly. ”
The expression was cold, and the cold aura spread through everyone. was watched by Wu Jue, more than 200 people were silent, and the needles on the battlefield of Nuoda could be heard.
"I don't want anyone to run away, and I don't want to hear you complain anymore......"
When the words fell, Wu Jue seemed to want to say something, but in the end he didn't say it. Then he raised the long knife in his hand and ordered, "Go." ”
No matter how dissatisfied you are, no matter how ridiculous you feel, as a soldier, it is your duty to obey orders, and it can be said that it is the trend of the times......
"Wait a minute, follow me, and don't leave without permission. Yi Fei suddenly said to Qian Xiao.
Qian Xiao nodded: "Okay." ”
The team moved forward in a group of four, and after a while, the black steel gate came into view.
The flesh-faced city lord I saw that day was standing under the steel city gate, and behind him stood about thirty veterans of Demon Dragon City wearing broken iron armor.
The veteran's gaze was on the recruit, not ridicule, no contempt, but also no look at the look that people should see, it was as if they were looking...... Dead person.
Same as the two guys guarding the city.
"City Lord!"
Wu Jue walked up to Zong Jie and called out calmly.
"Hmm. Are you all there?"
"It's all here. ”
"Then let's go straight away!"
Zong Jie nodded slightly at Wu Jue, did not smile, and then waved his hand to the thirty or so people in the rear, and the thirty or so veterans walked straight out of the city gate.
It wasn't until more than thirty veterans disappeared from sight that Wu Jue waved behind him and said "go", and the large army went out of the city gate under Zong Jie's indifferent gaze.
After walking a short distance, I stepped on the black earth under my feet, surrounded by ancient trees that had been cut down and only left with stumps.
Wu Jue stopped, turned around, pointed to the dark forest behind him, and said, "Now you go in, don't think about escaping, I said it before." Don't even think about hiding, those who don't complete the task are not qualified to return to the city. ”
"Spread out ...... now"
When he said this, who could see that Wu Jue gritted his teeth. The soldiers who wanted to say a few words shut up.
The army began to disperse in a formation, and Wu Jue stood in place and watched silently.
Standing on the steel wall behind him, Zong Jie looked indifferently and said to the thin bony adjutant beside him, "You can start." ”
The skeletal adjutant shook his head, and with a breeze blowing, he disappeared in place.
Zong Jie looked up at the faintly red sky, the 'evil beast' seemed to be alive, and the direction of his gaze was the more than two hundred recruits. Waiting to devour them.
"Captain, what do we do next, the Sprinkle family is up to you. ”
Li Kui walked to Yi Fei's side and said in a grand manner.
Yi Fei glanced at him, and then glanced at the eyes of the other eight people, knowing that these people really regarded themselves as leaders at this time, which was a good thing, but it was also a pressure.
Yi Fei took a deep breath and said, "Wait first, find a place to observe, after all, there are three days, so there is no hurry." ”
The nine nodded, agreeing with the idea.
"Now, then, let's separate from the big army!" Yi Fei said again.
"This ...... Isn't that more dangerous?" Li Kui was a little puzzled.
Although the large troops were scattered in the form of squads, because everyone was afraid, they were not completely separated, and they were basically within a range of 200 meters, so that no matter where something went wrong, others could be rescued in time, and it would be safe to watch.
"Nope. ”
Yi Fei glanced at him and shook his head: "This is actually safer, we are not qualified to deal with large fierce beasts now, we can only find smaller ones, but there are not necessarily many small ones." But once they encounter a large fierce beast, more than 200 people will be finished, and it is possible that the entire army will be wiped out at that time. ”
After thinking about it, everyone nodded, and then the ten people left in the eyes of other people who were puzzled, angry, or looked at with contempt, and disappeared into the darkness......
A day later.
At dusk, the light without temperature shone on the green forest, and Qian Xiao jumped from tree to bush, his steps were very light, and he barely made a sound. He landed outside a bush, cleverly dodging the trap on the ground, and peeling through the bushes to reveal a camp behind him hidden under a large rock.
Humble walked into the camp, and there was some hay in it anyway.
"Qianxiao, what's going on outside?"
Yi Fei opened his eyes next to him and asked.
The remaining six people in the camp were lying on the ground, and they all got up and looked at Qian Xiao with inquiring eyes.
"The situation is not good, the large army encountered a Yanhu, was scattered, died a lot, and there is still a little ......"
Qian Xiao hesitated, his expression was a little resentful, a little painful, and a little powerless: "Those guys who want to escape were killed by the veterans guarding outside as soon as they ran out of the forest, and there is no chance to resist at all." ”
Hearing this, Li Kui, including Ruan Hong, was resentful, scolded a few words, and then thought of the current situation and fell silent again.
Cousins are desperate and can't see life.
There were only eight people in the entire camp plus Qian Xiao and Yi Fei who had returned, because two of them were already dead and their bones were gone.
Last night, while they were sleeping, a huge fierce beast, the black bear, jumped out, five meters high.
Although they desperately escaped, they still killed two companions, plus the large and small injuries on their bodies, Li Kui even received a claw in the chest, if it wasn't for Yi Fei sealing the wound for him with spiritual power and carrying out a bazaar, he should have died at this time.
That's not what they can fight against at all, have you ever seen a big tree with a paw of five people hugging the thick tree!
Until now, Li Kui felt a little unreal, and he didn't believe that the eight members of the team had escaped under that kind of monster.
Now that they heard the news again, Li Kui and the others felt that the entire Shuikou Town recruits would be wiped out.
Seeing everyone's expressions, although they have experienced more, they can't help but be in a bad mood, put down the bag in their hands, and humbly comforted: "Don't think too much, we will definitely be able to go back." Eat something first, this is some wild fruit I picked on the road, it tastes great and there are no side effects. ”
As he spoke, Qian Xiao poured out a dozen blue-green fruits from the bag, which looked like a hybrid of apples and pears.
picked up one and threw it to Yi Fei, and then ran to the others in turn, picking up one himself and eating it.
All that remained in the camp was a crisp snap.
After a while, the fruit was finished, and the stomach that had not eaten for a day was comforted, and Qian Xiao groaned for a while, and said to everyone: "Tonight is a day off, tomorrow is the last day, we must hunt a fierce beast, otherwise we will not be able to make a difference." ”
Then Yi Fei turned his gaze to Qian Xiao and asked, "Qian Xiao, when you go back, do you find that there is a suitable target, that kind of small one is less dangerous." ”
Yi Fei and Qian Xiao are the strongest in the team, surpassing the others by a large margin, naturally Yi Fei stayed in the camp to protect the others, and Qian Xiao went out to find out the news.
This is also Qianxiao's own decision.
And he went out to find out the news not only to see the situation of other people, but also to find the target.
"Yes. ”
Qian Xiao replied without hesitation, he had indeed found a suitable beast.
As soon as he said this, everyone else showed a look of surprise, and Yi Fei's brows moved.
"But it depends on timing. Qianxiao's words changed.
"What do you mean?" Yi Fei asked, frowning.
Qian Xiao said: "It is the cub of an adult fierce beast, I have been observing for several hours, and from time to time the adult fierce beast will go hunting. And then only the cubs are there, and we can do it. ”
"Well, when the beast will go hunting, we only have one day tomorrow. Still frowning, Yi Fei thought a lot, fierce beasts are not human beings need to eat every day, some fierce beasts do not need to eat for a month, two months or even years after eating once.
"Would go every day. ”
Qian Xiao explained: "Because the adult beast has to feed the cubs, we have to catch a kind of rabbit for the cubs to eat every day, and it will be our chance for about half an hour at a time. I also followed the adult beast before I found the cub. ”
Yi Fei's brows relaxed, and he nodded: "In that case, then we will go and see tomorrow." ”
"What do you think? The next is dangerous, including tonight, and we could die at any moment. Yi Fei looked at Li Kui and Zhang Miaoyang, and they asked.
"Nope. Li Kui said firmly.
Zhang Miaoyang shook his head.
And Ruan Hong is complicated. He felt that he was useless, if Qian Xiao hadn't saved him before, he would have been in the belly of the beast by now.
From the resurgence of pride since childhood, he felt that he was dragging his feet.
"Take turns keeping vigil tonight, Brother Li will recover from his injuries and make the last round tomorrow. Seeing that no one spoke anymore, looking at the gradually darkening sky, Yi Fei finalized the next arrangement.
