Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

The streets of the city were bustling with people. Every household had decorated their houses with lanterns and prepared things for the festival. It was very lively.

A carriage drove towards the city gate.

Geng Kongyu lifted the car curtain and looked at the prosperous scene outside, but his thoughts drifted elsewhere.

Last night, the commanders of various war zones discussed for a long time and finally set a date for counterattacking the beast tide and recovering lost territory. The date is after the New Year. He is now going to the military camp outside the city to discuss the deployment.

The scene outside the window flashed by like a mirror, and suddenly, he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye.

"parking!"

He looked back through the window and saw Xiao and Huang Guxuan walking on the street.

"Wait for me here." He told the driver and got off the car and walked towards the two people.

Xiao was looking at the goods on the roadside stall when he suddenly heard an uncle's voice coming from behind him.

"Have you two finished your work?"

Xiao turned around and found that the other person looked familiar. Just as he was searching his memories, Huang Guxuan spoke:

"Well, it's all done."

"Did you come back specially to celebrate the New Year?"

Xiao remembered that the opponent was General Geng from the Red Butterfly Army.

"New Year's Eve?"

He only had a clear concept of time during the days when he was studying in Licheng. After all, what student didn't look forward to the holidays? But after that, he was no longer clear. At most, he knew that winter had arrived when the weather turned cold.

Is it the Chinese New Year? This is his first time to celebrate the Chinese New Year here.

"Well, the New Year is in a week, and people in the city have already started preparing for the New Year." Geng Kongyu said.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Huang Guxuan went straight to the point: "General Geng suddenly got out of the car. He shouldn't be here to chat with us, right?"

As he spoke, he looked past Geng Kongyu and towards the car not far away.

"I have some things to arrange. I saw you on the way, so I decided to take you with me. As for you..." Geng Kongyu looked at Xiao, "Have you considered joining us?"

"Yeah." Xiao nodded.

"Well, come with me."

Huang Guxuan did not refuse Geng Kongyu's invitation. In other words, he came with Yuanliu's mission - to assist the army in counterattacking. So, the three of them got on the car, and the space was just right. The baggage cart started and continued to rush towards the city gate.

In the car, Geng Kongyu spoke first.

"The order has come down from above. We will start the counterattack after the New Year."

"Well, I'll help."

"When you, the Fox King, take action, it's more than just a simple assistance." Geng Kongyu teased, and then said, "The enemy's strongest combat force is a third-level commander, which is a god-level combat force. In order to prevent accidents, a god will be sent down to each major battlefield, and the area I am responsible for is assigned to one. The gods are not on good terms with you, do you need me to tell them not to send gods over?"

“No need. They can’t do anything to me. I’m giving you my combat power for free. Don’t refuse it.”

"Well."

Looking at the two people talking about important things, Xiao felt a little complicated.

Why didn't you avoid him and treat him as your own so quickly? Don't suddenly remember and try to silence him.

"It's not certain who will defeat whom by then." Hong Xiao suddenly spoke.

elf:......

Red Xiao: "I'll kill him and sell him off. Do you dare to touch me?"

Xiao: “Ahem.”

Red Xiao: "Are you catching a cold? You are already so powerful, why are you still so weak?"

Green Mandrill: "He was just reminding you. What did you do? Read minds?"

Red Xiao: "Why would I read your mind? I don't care about your little thoughts. I'm just guessing."

Green Mandrill: "You don't have to hide it, he doesn't care."

Xiao: “Well, I still care a little bit.”

Green Mandrill: “?”

Xiao felt that he couldn't continue the conversation on this topic and had to change it.

Xiao: "From what they're saying, it won't be long before we can say goodbye to the beast tide that represents disaster."

Red Xiao: "It's been so long, I don't need to take action this time, right?"

Xiao: "I thought you would be very interested."

Red Xiao: "You want me to take action? Then you have to be mentally prepared."

Green Mandrill: "What preparations?"

Red Mandrill: "Be prepared to die together."

Green Mandrill: "Is that beast tide... dangerous?"

Red Xiao: "You don't really believe it, do you?"

Green Mandrill: “?”

Red Mandrill: "Want to kill me? Those ants are not worthy."

Green Mandrill: “…”

Xiao: “Just get used to it.”

The three of them chatted until the car left the city.

"What's wrong?" Xiao asked when he saw the car suddenly stop.

"The car is too slow." Geng Kongyu got off the car and said, "Flying is prohibited in the city, and there are also restrictions on the types of cars. Now that we are out of the city, let's change to a faster mount."

Hearing this, the other two also got out of the car.

Suddenly, a long cry was heard in the air, and a big bird appeared in everyone's sight.

"The Swift Heron is a transport-type flying mount commonly used in our army. It is equipped with a wind-blocking magic circle." Geng Kongyu introduced.

The Swift Shadow Heron was very fast. It landed in front of everyone just after Geng Kongyu finished introducing it. Its eyes swept over the three people who were not even half as tall as it. When it saw Xiao, its body trembled slightly, but soon returned to normal.

"Let's go up... huh?" Geng Kongyu looked at the swift heron in surprise. He saw it lying obediently on the ground, even drooping its wings as a step.

Normally, the troops stationed at the entrance to the Wild Ancient Territory did not have access to transport mounts. These Swift Shadow Heron were hastily deployed when the Red Butterfly Army officially decided to rush to the frontline. In order to put them into use as soon as possible, they were not tamed to this extent, and could only carry people.

Could this unusual situation be caused by them?

Geng Kongyu glanced at the two people behind him and climbed onto the seat on the back of the Swift Shadow Heron.

Is it because of the divine aura on the "Fox King" or is it because there is something special about this young man named Xiao?

When all three of them came up, the Swift Shadow Heron flew towards the direction of the military camp. Before Geng Kongyu could activate the magic circle, it formed a wind-blocking barrier on its own.

Something is wrong, very wrong.

Geng Kongyu decided that when he had time he would ask someone who knew the business, such as the one who helped them tame the animals.

The scenery below flashed by quickly, and before long, they arrived outside a military camp. The military camp was protected by a large formation, and they could only enter through the main gate.

As soon as they arrived, someone came to greet them.

"Zeng Xin, I leave this young man to you." Geng Kongyu took out a letter from somewhere and handed it to the man who was walking towards him. He then said to Xiao, "You follow him first."

Then, he led Huang Guxuan inside.

Zeng Xin glanced at the contents of the letter and said to Xiao calmly, "Follow me."

"Where are we going?" Xiao asked.

"Let me run some tests first, then go get your belongings and I'll show you the situation."

Xiao was stunned for a moment.

So soon? He wanted to spend the New Year here.

Although he was somewhat reluctant, since he had agreed to join, he still followed.

The first step was to test his realm, and he found out he was at the king level two star.

It actually got upgraded by one star without me noticing.

Xiao looked at the result and said in his heart.

"How old are you?" Zeng Xin looked at Xiao in surprise.

He muttered to himself, why does this king-level warrior look so young?

Xiao tried to recall how old he was when he first arrived, but couldn't remember, so he just gave a random number: "Sixteen."

Zeng Xin had no doubts. After all, his height and the unique temperament of a young man made him very credible. Now he couldn't keep calm anymore, and his face showed a look of as if he had seen a ghost. He had seen a lot of things in the world, but he had never seen someone like Xiao.

Another eye-opening day.

Afterwards, he took people to measure strength, speed and other indicators, but he never changed his look of surprise throughout the whole process.

Where did General Geng find such a powerful person?

After testing individual strengths, the assessment of capabilities begins.

"What attribute did you awaken?"

"wind."

"Wind? Then you can do intelligence gathering and assassination, right?"

"Ah."

"Okay, next question..."

"..."

Zeng Xin and Xiao kept asking and answering each other like this, and the former kept writing things down in the notebook.

"Have you ever led troops?"

"No."

"There will be an exercise tomorrow morning. You can go and try it. I'll take you to get acquainted with your comrades later." Zeng Xin said without raising his head.

"No need." Xiao thought that once he started his Nuo dance, there would be gun shadows everywhere, so he decisively refused.

This is not a game, you can't hurt your friends.

"Here, it's not enough to just talk about it on paper." Zeng Xin raised his head.

Then he heard Xiao's answer.

"I don't need soldiers."

"I am an army of one man."
