This filled his heart with pride, confidence in his future, and gratitude at the same time, which was a gift from Yulia, the goddess of the forest.

Philip looked at Afu who was guarding the side, and out of nowhere he got the courage, stepped forward and grabbed her hand, hugged her solemnly, and whispered in her ear: "Thank you!"

In exchange for Afu's blushing face and old Ivan's smiling eyes.

In the second awakening, the four abilities of madness, calculation, fortification, and prediction have all successfully evolved to the second level.

What makes him especially happy is the ability to predict, if the original pattern of the ability to predict is a bud, now with the lighting of the second node, it has become a flower that is gradually blooming.

The petals that wrap around the heart of the flower are already half open, but they haven't fully shown their delicate posture yet, and they are ashamed.

This was his magic weapon to restrain the sneak attacks of the speed players, and he didn't even want to wait a second, so he practiced with Ale.

Sure enough, it didn't disappoint him, after the second awakening, his total spiritual power had been opened to 40%, and his basic physical qualities had been greatly improved again.

And the amplitude of madness, under normal circumstances, is already three times the amplitude, four times the amplitude is also very easy, up to five times the amplitude, referring to the case of the first level of awakening, as long as the step-by-step exercise is still there room for further improvement.

Compared with before, because of the increase in total spiritual power, the proportion of spiritual power consumed by various abilities has also decreased by one-third year-on-year.

The ability to predict really didn't disappoint him, just like he had guessed before, the evolved prediction was still a passive skill.

The difference is that now he doesn't need to open the awakening, and if there is danger approaching, he will also passively trigger the awakening to activate.

That's how this ability really works, otherwise only an hour would be far from enough for him to defend against the ubiquitous sneak attacks and threats on the battlefield.

In addition to this, he also awakened two abilities, an active skill and a passive skill.

Passive skills are simple but very practical, in order to enhance his body's endurance, when he opens the awakening, the heart becomes more powerful, the blood vessels in the body become wider and more elastic, and the ability to transport blood oxygen is increased exponentially, which can provide him with strong support in high-load battles.

And that active skill, he has not yet studied and understood, and needs to further explore and try.

After this incident, his relationship with Afu became much closer, and the only embarrassing thing was that old Ivan canceled the room he stayed in for some reason, which made him have to come to Ave's house to rest every day with the teasing eyes of everyone.

Fortunately, Afubi imagined that he was much more reasonable, not only did not turn him away, but would help him make hot water every day, and wait for him to wash his face and feet before sleeping in the next room.

At first, he was naturally flattered and scrambled to pour water to clean up, but over time, he gradually got used to it.

It wasn't until three days later that he received a notice from old Ivan that the manpower had been deployed and that it was time for them to hit the road.

Murphy and the others have already set up camp in the outlying areas of the Sunset Tribe, where the latitude is higher and the terrain is much more precipitous, so there is no need to worry about the threat from the steppe people for the time being.

He personally led a team of 300 men, temporarily serving as scouts for the opening of mountains and bridges, and they were of little use now, and only when they reached a little further north could they take advantage of their familiarity with the terrain.

Old Ivan and the others naturally didn't have a good impression of these half-breeds, but at this time, whether they were facing the threat of the steppe people together, or for the sake of Philip's face, they didn't show much hostility, at most they just turned a blind eye.

Philip, on the other hand, followed the large army of the Sunset tribe all the way to the northeast, with a total of 3,000 men, which included almost all the men of the entire tribe, including even 500 powerful women.

Compared with the well-equipped and armed Wardsman Empire, most of these alpine Wardsman warriors are only wearing leather armor, but these leather armors are very heavy, and their protection ability should be quite good.

The hides of the King Kong Demon Lion that he had collected earlier, especially the ones with thick armor, Philip presented to old Ivan as a gift to thank him for helping to connect them.

Old Ivan made several pieces of leather armor from these precious furs and gave them to the two siblings, Afu and Ale, as well as a few young men destined to follow Philip down the mountain.

Ave and Alle managed to occupy Chand's original position, guarding Philip's two directions, one in front and one on the right.

Behind him is Duke, and on the left is Julian, guarding Philip so tightly that he can't laugh or cry.

The vast majority of male warriors of the Gaoshan tribe did not have mounts, because there were few suitable animals that could withstand their huge weight and height, and only a few people rode tame beasts, from bighorn deer to beast dragons, and many of these mutated varieties made Qian De and others look at them very hotly.

What is more special is the hundreds of female warriors, they all ride a sturdy black-lipped reindeer, each with a wooden bow and a dozen javelins made of colorful birches, all of them are fit, heroic, and the leader is called Avril, three-level awakening.

If there are no accidents, these female warriors will be Philip's direct subordinates in the future.

After four days and nights of walking northeast, they came to the meeting point that had been agreed upon beforehand.

This is a small plain that is rare in the mountain and forest areas, and it is also the location of the Cangyan tribe.

By the time Philip and the others arrived, the small plain had gathered more than 50,000 warriors from dozens of tribes.

Along the way, Afu stayed by Philip's side, popularizing all kinds of common sense to him.

For example, those who wear black suede armor and have animal bones on their heads are from the Xiaolin tribe, those who have developed horizontally and use thick logs as weapons, they are the Tiger Roar tribe, and as the most powerful mountain tribe in the entire alpine tribe, they have the largest number and the best equipment.

Coincidentally, all the tribes sent female warriors ranging from a few hundred to more than a thousand, all dressed up in one of the Sunset Tribe's equipment.

Philip asked suspiciously if it was a tradition, but Afu just smiled wordlessly, without explaining.

However, from her expression Philip, it can be judged that there may be something unspeakable in this.

The male warriors were all under the control of the twelve tribal chiefs, while the female warriors were all gathered together to form a large army of 12,000 men, all of whom were placed under Philip's command.

This made him very happy, and he accepted it excitedly, and then looked to Afu for answers.

The truth was cruel, and Afu tearfully introduced their life and fate, which made Philip fall silent for a moment.

He had already discovered that these girls were not girls in terms of age, all of them were between thirty-five and fifty years old, and it was when a woman was the most mature and attractive.

But they were the most wretched people in the mountains, and they had a common name, 'Magah', which in Old Wald, was forsaken by God, and their military camp was next to their respective stockades, called Camp Maga.

Because they are all women who have not given birth after seven years of marriage, in the Black Forest, where the ratio of men to women is equally large, but the living conditions are much more cruel, this means that they have basically lost the possibility of becoming mothers.

Therefore, although they cannot be said to have been driven out of the village to fend for themselves, they have become the most special ethnic group over time.

Every year, Afu spends a lot of energy and time examining and treating these poor women.

I don't know if it's from the balance of the Earth Mother God Gaia, or the restrictions of some rules, the fertility rate of the Alpine Ward tribe is also declining year after year.

No one knows why, it's clear that the body is in a mess, but it just can't have children.

It is clear that in such a big war, it is not a happy ending that awaits them in the cruel battlefield.

It can't be said that Old Ivan is too cruel, each ethnic group has its own rules of survival, but Philip still instinctively feels uncomfortable.

So he took command of the team without saying a word, and even if he returned to Gokan City in the future, he did not intend to let these poor girls come back, for he had already thought of the most suitable place to arrange for them.

There, at least, they will not be abandoned and become part of the innocent consumption.

There are still four or five tribes that have not yet arrived, so they need to be repaired here for two days for the time being.

Philip sat on the soft hide, stretching out his hands and waiting for Afu to wipe it.

It's not that he pretends to be an uncle, but it's completely different from his tall and straight figure, handsome and heroic appearance and powerful skills, and even forms a strong contrast, our Afu girl is a very gentle and very small woman in her bones.

After seeing Philip's sassy and heroic appearance and fulfilling the prophecy that day, she seemed to acquiesce in something, and began to demand herself and Philip in a certain capacity.

Although he is not yet willing to recommend himself to the pillow seat, he does not mind showing his most gentle and delicate side in front of Philip.

On the first day, Philip refused.

The next day, Philip refused.

On the third day, Ave was a little sad, and Philip reluctantly accepted it, but insisted on cleaning up himself.

Day 4 & 5......

The power of habit is terrible, after seven days, Philip can already accept her fiddling and waiting with peace of mind, as long as she is happy, otherwise with her strength, he will be forcibly stripped and washed again, and Philip feels that he is also powerless to resist.

After much temptation, he finally opened the girl's mouth and knew what had happened that night.

There was nothing glamorous he had imagined, and that night he had soiled his clothes and room with a violent squirt, and was carried like a punching bag in one hand, and came to a forced cleaning.

Although ice water is not used, the process is by no means so glamorous.

So when he woke up the next day, his skin would be a little weirdly red, and there would be blood in some sensitive places.

And these days, let alone quarreling with him, Afu has not even done anything against his will.

Philip was very embarrassed by his submissive appearance, but he was secretly complacent, and it was hypocritical to call himself a slut.

After the reorganization, there were more than 12,000 people in the women's corps, divided into three regiments, and their respective leaders were elected.

All Philip needs to do is find a suitable leader for these girls, and he has the most suitable person in front of him, whether it is in terms of ability, seniority, popularity, etc., although this person is washing his hair.

"Afu, as I said, you are not a servant, so you don't have to wait for me all these things. Philip wiped his wet hair and said, though he felt quite underwhelmed.

Afu didn't say anything, just picked up the basin and walked out, not answering the stubble at all.

Philip had no choice but to say his thoughts directly: "I want you to lead those girls, and there will be fewer casualties among them with you." ”

originally thought that something would go wrong, but Afu not only didn't agree, but pulled down her little face for the first time, obviously emotional.

When Philip asked him repeatedly, he was told that he couldn't laugh but couldn't refute it.

"It will take me at least seven years to live in the camp of Magah, or after I am thirty-five years old.

When the time comes...... I'll pack up and move in by myself, so I don't need you to remind me. ”

Although he wasn't sure if he was married, although he didn't do anything at night, after all, the girls lived with him and were still cultivating feelings for each other.

Therefore, looking at Afu's cold face for the first time and the fangs that Alie bared out again, Philip decisively gave up any justification and persuasion.

The old thoughts are terrible, even for Afu, who is kind and gentle, and is also a woman.

Sure enough, those women didn't feel how miserable they were, maybe they were used to it, and the camp was chattering all day long.

Philip personally met with the commanders of the three regiments, and unlike what he imagined, there was no deadline for Ai Ai, nor did he cry, but they all looked like they were in a state of war.

"Are all the supplies allocated to you in place? are they enough?" he said as he silenced the three women on the other side.

In the end, it was the eldest, Avril from the Sunset Tribe, who tried to explain: "It's always been like this when we come out to hunt, we're all used to it, and it's enough to save some food." ”

Who knew that after Philip heard this, his brows furrowed, this is not hunting, but fighting, and people will die.

However, material baggage is not so easy to want, especially for him who has no power and no power, and he will never believe that he can say everything because of his great power that night.

There is also a need for a suitable reason, or opportunity.

But who knows, this opportunity was delivered to him that night.

Tens of thousands of strong warriors from dozens of tribes have gathered here, and the pressure of the big war is about to start, and the desire after a full meal makes these strong men full of male hormones have nowhere to vent, and naturally there will be shameless people who take risks.

There are only two types of women here, one is the women of the Cangyan tribe, but those are all masters, even if they are drunk, they still have a trace of sanity.

There is also a category of women in the Maga camp, although these women are not easy to provoke, but they have much less trouble.

Besides, they have done a lot of the same thing before, in fact, many women in the Maga camp are also voluntary, and not being able to give birth to children does not mean that they are physically defective, and of course they will be empty, lonely, and cold.

Even if they are unlucky and don't meet the right eye, they will take advantage of the strength of the wine to come, even if it is big, as a man, they will not suffer, as long as they do not die, no one will punish them for this.

But that was before, and the Maacahs did not have a leader named Philip.

If it is really you and me, Philip is naturally not good at interfering, at most he will strictly enforce the discipline of the military camp and drive away the matter.

But tonight it was their bad luck, and the three men gagged the two patrol girls and dragged them into the woods.

Before he could do anything, he was violently resisted and abused by the parties.

The three of them, who were carried away by the alcohol, made a decision that they later regretted, that is, to come hard, and brutally beat the two female fighters.

As soon as they took off their pants and prepared to commit murder, they were blocked in the grove by Avril with dozens of warriors.

A not-so-violent conflict soon ended, and the three bruised-nosed and swollen men were taken back to the barracks, and Philip rushed to the scene after hearing the news.

Kicking the big guy under his feet, Philip casually asked, "What tribe are they from?"

"It's from the Tiger Roar Tribe. ”

"How's our guy?"

Ah Fu said angrily: "One has broken a rib, the other is deaf in one ear, and the other has countless bruises. ”

The faces of several regiment commanders were also very ugly, and it was obvious that this was not the first time that something like this had happened.

Philip turned to Avril again and asked, "What did you do when you encountered this situation before?"

The look in Avril's eyes dimmed a little, and she replied with some disappointment: "This is the first time in the past ten years that we have joined forces with other tribes, and in the past, the people of my own tribe turned a blind eye and just threw them out. ”

Philip nodded and ordered: "Afu will take me to see the two wounded, as for these guys, hang them up first, and naturally someone will come to the door to ask for someone." ”

"But will that make a big deal out of that way?" said Sasha, the leader of the second regiment, with some concern.

Philip suddenly realized that compared to the team leaders under Sophia's who could put their nostrils on top of their heads, these women were simply terrifyingly weak, no wonder even Ave was like that.

He sneered and said, "It's just going to make a big fuss, our people are being bullied, how can they be so cheap." ”

"Can you still kill them?" Zoya, the leader of the Third Regiment, asked tentatively, his eyes lit up.

Philip nodded, shook his head again, and confused everyone before he said: "Killing nature can't be killed, after all, our people are not dead, and the teacher is unknown."

But capital sins can be forgiven, but living sins are unforgivable.

I know you're used to some things, but from this day forward, you're all my soldiers, and you're completely different from before.

If you want others to respect you, you must first respect yourself from the bottom of your heart.

Passing on my order, the three major regiments are all closed and sealed, and not a single fly wants to get in. ”
