Is He Really The Protagonist?

After restarting the car, they soon arrived at the temporary meeting point, which was an abandoned lumberyard. After putting on their masks, they got out of the car and the two of them walked in side by side.

When I walked into the only intact building, I saw three people wearing masks already sitting inside. Hearing the sound, the three of them turned their heads, and the man with a leaf printed on his mask nodded to Yun Fangche.

"Captain of Haicheng's second team, Ye Fei."

"Haicheng Team 2, snow is falling."

"Haicheng Second Team, Mumu Warrior."

"Jiangcheng alone, water, fire and cloud."

"Jiangcheng alone, Xingchen."

Judging by just listening to the voice, Ye Fei is a middle-aged man; Xue Fenfei is a young girl, about the same age as herself, but her voice is a bit mute; Mumu Warrior is a man, between 20 and 30 years old by the sound of his voice.

Shuihuoyun is Yun Fangche, and Xingchen is naturally himself. The names given by several people are all code names. According to Yun Fangche, spiritualists usually use code names to separate tasks from life.

As for masks, because of convenience, people usually use the castrated version of Thousand Faces. Using brainwave control to establish a group chat within a certain range, the convenience of communication surpasses that of various devices.

"He is...First Order?"

Ye Fei looked at Yun Fangche and asked with some uncertainty.

"Yes, I am his guide, and I will be responsible for his safety on this mission."

Ye Fei nodded and did not ask any more questions, but still warned Xiao Bosheng.

"Be careful at all times, don't be left alone, protect yourself, don't get in trouble, survival is the first priority, and the second is the mission."

"Uh-huh."

Xiao Posheng nodded. Yun Fangche looked around.

"Where is your other team member? Have the others not arrived yet?" Because the mission mentioned that only one of their team members was killed, there should be four more, so he asked when he saw that there were only three people present.

"When we retreated last night, we were surrounded by those second-level beasts. Black Hand was left behind, and his life and death are unknown. Lieku was too seriously injured, so he quit the mission and went back to recuperate. So it was just the three of us who continued the mission. .”

"Sorry, my condolences."

"It's okay. You were ready to face this day when you joined Yu Ling, weren't you?"

The three of them had no intention of continuing to talk and were cultivating themselves silently. Yun Fangche walked out and stood on the corridor, looking at the jungle in the distance. Xiao Posheng followed him and remained silent.

"It's a coincidence that I know Black Hand. He is from Haicheng, but he went to university in Jiangcheng and I brought him into Yuling. His parents divorced and they all thought he was a drag. He grew up with his grandparents.

Later, after he graduated and was promoted to the second level, he said he wanted to return to Haicheng to support his grandparents. I still remember the first time I took him on a mission. I asked him why he wanted to join Yuling, and he said he just wanted to protect his grandparents.

Alas, counting the time, this is his second year of graduation. "

Xiao Bosheng didn't know what to say.

"What about you, boss? Why did you join Yuling?"

Yun Fangche said calmly: "Because I can."

Neither of them spoke anymore. In the afternoon, Jiangcheng's second team and the third-level master also arrived one after another. After briefly introducing themselves, more than a dozen people gathered together and listened to Ye Fei briefly introduce the intelligence they had previously investigated.

“The total number is about 100-200, basically all of them are first-order ones, there are also dozens of second-order ones, and it is suspected that there are third-order ones.

The strange thing is that the spirit patterns of these spirit beasts are very unified. They are all blood-colored patterns covering the body. They can greatly increase speed and strength, reduce negative states such as pain, and can enhance defense.

All three entrances and exits of the base are occupied by spirit beasts, and the distribution of spirit beasts in other places is temporarily unclear. "

Xiao Bosheng and Yun Fangche looked at each other, and they thought of the canine spirit beast when they first met.

"With so many spiritual beasts gathered together, there should be friction. Let's wait until their internal consumption is almost exhausted before taking action."

He turned to look at the person who spoke. It was a single person from Haicheng, codenamed Ridge. He looked like an uncle-level figure, that is, the third level.

"No, the battle within the spirit beasts is not fierce, and there is even a certain amount of progress and retreat. Moreover, the supplies inside the base are insufficient. If we continue to delay, the base will eventually be unable to hold on, so we must enter the base early to take a look at the situation." It was Xue who spoke. Flying.

The captain of Jiangcheng's second team, Zhu Huo, also spoke: "Understood, it's not too late. Let's allocate tasks now. My suggestion is to roughly determine the distribution of the spirit beasts, send a few people, and create some noise to attract the attention of the spirit beasts." , the other part goes through the gap to rescue the target.”

"agree."

"agree."

"agree."

Yun Fangche, Shan Ji, and Ye Fei agreed to this simple plan after thinking for a while, and then divided the personnel into groups. In the end, the five members of Jiangcheng's second team were responsible for attracting the spiritual beasts, which was apparently the more dangerous part. They were originally a small team, and they cooperated There needs to be a more tacit understanding, and the remaining five people are responsible for infiltration and rescue.

As for Xiao Bosheng, everyone thought he was here to gain knowledge and made no plans until Yun Fangche said he would follow them and be responsible for gathering intelligence.

However, no one said anything, which made Xiao Bosheng a little disappointed. The slap in the face that was necessary for time travel did not happen to him, and he was a little disappointed.

There was no action that night. On the one hand, everyone was rushing from other places and needed to rest. On the other hand, Haicheng's second team had just lost a teammate and needed to adjust their mood.

Early the next morning, everyone organized and set off. The Jiangcheng Second Team looked for a location that was convenient for fighting and could retreat at any time, while Xiao Bosheng and his group looked for a convenient route for sneaking in.

The group of people moved towards the place where Haicheng's second team was ambushed. After walking for about an hour, Xiao Bosheng felt something was wrong and called out to Yun Fangche who was walking at the front. Everyone else also stopped and looked at this young man who had high hopes from Yun Fangche.

"Something's not right."

Xiao Bosheng closed his eyes and felt for a while, still not sure, so he opened his spiritual pupils.

"The spiritual energy here is too even. And."

He raised his hand and moved, and the spiritual energy in the air stirred like mist.

"Try exiting this range first."

Others looked toward the team's only third-order ridge, trying to determine accuracy. Ridge activated his spirit pattern, and the pattern on the back of his neck lit up. Then his expression changed and he nodded. Everyone looked at each other and backed away slowly.

After walking more than a hundred meters, Xiao Bosheng called to stop the team, and the ridge also made a sound.

"We have fallen into a trap. I don't know how many spiritual beasts are coming."

"There is only one, and the opponent will be invisible. Originally, it was waiting for help. If we continue to move forward, we will probably face the same situation as Captain Ye and the others yesterday; but when we retreated, it could not sit still and chased after us. It should be I didn’t have time to communicate with other spiritual beasts.”

Ye Fei was surprised: "Can you feel where it is?"

"Well, my spiritual pattern makes me very sensitive to spiritual power fluctuations. But after we stopped, the other party also stopped."

"It's okay, let's keep moving. Little brother, if you keep looking for it, it will still be unable to help but chase us."

Xiao Bosheng nodded. The spiritual energy in this area should be released by the opponent. Its function is to hide himself and locate the enemy. He has a strong spiritual pattern talent. It's a pity that when he met himself, the advantage of the spiritual pattern was directly erased.

Under the leadership of Xiao Bosheng, several people circled several times and stopped. Just as Yun Fangche was about to speak, a sentence popped up in the group chat on the mask.

"Ten meters ahead, under the first tree on the left side of the bush, it should be about the same size as a Tibetan mastiff. If you get closer, it will retreat."

Seeing this sentence, the spirit pattern on Yun Fangche's hand immediately lit up, he flew out and punched where Xiao Bosheng said it, but felt nothing. At the same time, the next sentence popped up in the group chat.

"Brother Ye, five meters to your right, on the tree, two meters above the ground."

Another sentence quickly followed.

"Brother Shan, it's going to pass by you, it's up to you."

When Ye Fei took action and left a small crater in the tree, Shan Ridge felt the fluctuations in the air beside him and took action immediately. Then he felt something furry on his hand, twisting and turning. Pressing him to the ground hard, spiritual power spurted out from the palm of his hand, and the other party immediately stopped moving.

At this time, Xiao Bosheng felt that the special spiritual energy around him began to dissipate, and it returned to normal after a while. It seemed that there was only one. Everyone looked at the men on the ridge. The spirit beast's invisibility had also failed with its death. It was a huge spider-like creature. Its round body was surrounded by eight claws, and its head could not be seen at all.

After Shan Ridge wiped the mucus from his hands, he said to Xiao Bosheng: "It's a second-level one. It seems to have some special abilities. Little brother Xiao, if you encounter a spiritual beast, just send a message in the group chat."

In the next section of the road, Xiao Bosheng fully utilized the characteristics of Xingpu, leading everyone through the forest, avoiding the spiritual beasts scattered everywhere.

Everyone quickly arrived at the place where Haicheng's second team separated from Black Hand. No spiritual beasts were found around them. The battlefield was in a mess, with large blood stains, but no corpses. In the end, Yun Fangche only found a bloody mask in the crevice of a rock.

After handing the mask to Ye Fei, the three of them quietly dug a hole next to it, solemnly placed the mask in it, and buried a small earth bag. Soldier Mumu used the dagger he carried to cut a small wooden board and handed it to Ye Fei.

Ye Fei didn't answer: "Xiaoxue, come on. This kid has always disliked my ugly handwriting."

The last simple tombstone was erected in front of the soil bag. There were no extra words on it, only his code name.

No one spoke during the rest of the trip, only Xiao Bosheng's words from time to time on Qian Mian Mian, reminding everyone that they were now in a jungle full of spiritual beasts, not at a memorial service for colleagues.
