Ultimate Assassin System
Chapter 442 Red Weasel!
Bran and the Northern Wasteland have been fighting for so many years, and the front line stretching for thousands of miles has been engulfed in flames of war. .To exaggerate, almost every inch of the land here is soaked in dark red blood.
Of course, just almost. Compared with the frequent battles elsewhere, the Zichen Army's defense area seemed particularly peaceful. Awed by Zi Yi's domineering power, the barbarians rarely brought war to this area for more than ten years. And even if there is, it is basically successfully intercepted and solved on the periphery. Therefore, the urban civilians in this defense zone feel very strange. They are in a war-torn area, but they have enjoyed a quiet life for more than ten years, and they have almost forgotten the appearance of the barbarians.
The barbarians are like this, and the soldiers of other legions are also like this. So when we got here, the rich experience of Elt and Tucker couldn't be used. It's not that they had never been to the Zichen Army's defense area, but it was basically just for wartime needs. They hurriedly walked around and left again, not at all. Be familiar with the terrain here.
In this case, everyone had no choice but to just walk straight towards the east, thinking that they would always encounter the patrol soldiers of the Zichen Legion. However, they didn't know that Tiwu had already led his people to do the demolition work diligently and removed most of the military strongholds on the periphery of the Zichen Army's defense area. So if they didn't walk for a long time, they basically couldn't expect to encounter any living people.
Fortunately, Tang En and others were in a good mood and did not care about this. For them, after spending more than ten days on the run, being able to walk confidently in the sunshine is a rare blessing. Coupled with the fact that he had just narrowly escaped death, the team was joking, telling dirty jokes, etc., and it was very lively.
While talking and laughing, everyone didn't realize how long they had been walking, probably half a day, because the sky was getting darker and dusk was approaching.
It was at this time that the team finally encountered a group of soldiers wearing standard armor. Or to be more prepared, they were surrounded by each other. No one panicked. For people like them who walked in without asking, it was inevitable for the other party to be careful.
Sure enough, after getting closer, it was probably clear that this was not a bulky barbarian. The surrounding soldiers immediately stopped and put down their weapons, and then several burly figures came forward.
He gave a standard military salute and said, Purple Chen Army Light Armor Battalion, Butters!
Returning the military salute, The Fourth Thunder Army's epee camp is Elt. The battle ax camp is Taka.
The new gray army's spear breaks the camp, Frey.
…
The three major armies on the front line are all competing openly and secretly, but now is the war period, and they are united to the outside world, but there is less intrigue than usual.
After such an introduction, the big man named Butters did not have the arrogance of being a member of the Zichen Legion. He had a rather bold personality and was also very talkative. As for Frey and the others, who originally sought refuge with others to avoid risks temporarily, they naturally agreed. So soon everyone got in touch and headed to the nearest checkpoint together.
Although it was temporarily determined that Tang En and others were Bran soldiers, Butters naturally wanted to ask them why they were here during his conversation. Tang En and Frey have already discussed this point. First of all, we can't talk about Weiner's frame-up of them. The other party is also a deputy general. Although this is the Zichen Legion, logically speaking, there should be no conflict with Weiner. There is no connection between Gnar, but in order to avoid possible complications, the best option is to keep it secret until the matter is resolved.
Next is the matter of breaking out of the encirclement of tens of thousands of barbarians. This can be said, but the key is that the other party does not believe it... So in the end Frey just vaguely said that the three battalions of his side came out to patrol, and then encountered a large number of barbarians. To attack, we can only evacuate here. We suffered heavy losses along the way, and there are only so many people left here.
This is naturally believable, because it is originally true. And after crawling into the ravine for more than ten days, everyone now looked almost the same as savages. This is why Butters and the others were so close just now and why they hesitantly put down their weapons.
After listening to Frey's words, Butters nodded, looked at everyone and said with emotion: We have all heard about the situation in the wilderness. Barbarians are almost everywhere. More than a thousand of you can survive across the wilderness. It’s a miracle that so many people have come here.”
Frey and the others couldn't help but look at each other and smile bitterly when they heard this. Who knows if it weren't for the Wild Wolf Riders, more of them would have made it here alive.
However, the expressions of several people were misunderstood by Butters, who comforted them: Don't be too sad. Death on the battlefield is considered a soldier's destiny. The next time you see the barbarians, just kill a few more people. Think of it as revenge for them.”
Although I misunderstood it, the words made sense. Tang En and others nodded in agreement, and then Elt changed the topic and asked casually: Brother Butters doesn't seem to be surprised at all that we are here?
Haha, of course. Butters raised his head and laughed a few times, and explained, You guys don't know something. You are not the first group of people to come here. In the past few days, other teams from the Thunder Legion often came to avoid it. Our defense zone. But you are the first to be able to cross the wilderness with more than a thousand people. Basically, those who arrived here are division-level. I seem to have heard that there are a few generals, and the teams have suffered heavy losses.
There was quite a bit of pride in his previous words, probably because the Zichen Legion was strong enough to become a refuge. But there’s nothing wrong with that, because that’s the truth.
Frey and the others suddenly nodded when they heard this. Yes, of course they couldn't be the only ones who thought of running here. Considering the conditions of the wilderness at that time, this place was indeed a perfect refuge when the war situation was unfavorable.
Oh, that's right. Frey seemed to have remembered something and said quickly, When we came here, we met... saw tens of thousands of barbarians. What's going on?
Butters grinned when he heard this and smiled: Oh, them, haha... They have been here for almost a week. They are only working hard to demolish our abandoned military stronghold on the outside, but they dare not go deep inside.
Frey was surprised: Abandoned?
Nodding, Well, there hasn't been a real war here for several years. The buildings in some military strongholds are seriously aging and dilapidated. We are also having a headache. Let's demolish it. This project is quite huge. And we are a little reluctant to part with it. After all, it is just make-do. It's still usable. Don't tear it down. You can't build a new one. Butters scratched his head to show his distress, and then he smiled happily and said, But it's better now. These barbarians spent a week knocking down most of it. It saves us a lot of worry.”
... Tang En and Frey looked at each other in shock when they heard this. They were all speechless. Then they collectively made gestures on their chests and held a moment of silence for the tens of thousands of barbarians they had just seen.
But Butters seemed a little dissatisfied, and buckled the sword on his waist: Of course, our commander ordered not to attack, otherwise we wouldn't let these barbarians wander around our defense area like this... Forget it, it's boring to say this. .Well, you are lucky, fortunately you did not run into those tens of thousands of barbarians.
Uh... haha, yes, luckily we didn't bump into each other. Frey's smile was a little stiff, and he and Tang En looked at each other, with the corners of their mouths twitching. Then he changed the subject, I see that those barbarians are in a hurry, as if they are running for their lives. Are there any actions on your side?
Huh? Is this the case? Butters scratched his hair, shook his head and said, I don't know much about this, I haven't heard about it. But this may be important information. I will report it to my superiors after I send you to the checkpoint. Well, thank you brothers. Butters is only a battalion commander, and he is still on patrol. He obviously has not received combat orders from above, so he naturally does not know.
Haha, Brother Butters is too polite. We just happened to see it, so we shouldn't thank you for what you said casually.
…
After chatting like this, before the sky completely darkened, a vague level finally appeared in everyone's sight, with several firelights jumping on the wall.
With Butters leading the way, everyone entered the level after being briefly searched by the soldiers guarding the city.
Bran's levels are all similar, with all the city defense equipment and patrol soldiers in sight. The same is true here, there will be no special things just because it is the Zichen Legion.
After being sent to the gate of the inner city of the level, Butters pointed at the soldiers on the side and said, All you need to do is follow him. Well, that means simply registering, and then they will open a route for you. It's a routine matter.
Okay, thank you Brother Butters for this trip. We'll come over and treat you to a drink when you have time.
Haha, that's good, I'll wait...
After exchanging a few words, Butters turned around and strode away. But it's not the wilderness outside, but somewhere inside the level, probably to report the information about the barbarian retreat that Frey just mentioned.
Tang En and others followed the leading soldier and turned left. Before they had gone far, a house made of thick stone appeared in front of them. The soldier who led the way opened the door, smiled and said a few words, as if he had a good relationship with the people inside, and then waved his hand and made an invitation gesture to invite Frey and the others in.
The so-called registration means that outsiders like Tang En write down their military ranks and the regiments they belong to. Then the other party will check it, and after confirming it is correct, they will open a route. With this route, their team can walk through the city behind them. Of course, the other party will also provide food and accommodation until they leave this defense zone and return to their own army.
This kind of work originally only required Frey, Elt, and Taka to do it, but Tang En was in the front position and was actually invited in as an officer by the soldier leading the way.
Tang En only found out about these matters after he came in. He touched his nose but didn't care and just stood aside. Then out of boredom, he looked around at the checkpoint office.
To be honest, this place is very simple, just a table and a few benches. The only thing that stood out was the standing wooden cabinet at the back that was similar to a bookcase. After Frey and others registered, a soldier opened the wooden cabinet and took out a stack of papers.
Tang En's sharp eyes saw the handwriting of the Four Thunder Armies on the paper. It suddenly dawned on me that this was the voucher that the other party had checked. Probably noticing Tang En's gaze, Frey came over and introduced: For serving officers, Bran's military will record them. Of course, this is just a checkpoint, so some can only be from the battalion level and up, and they only have names. Waiting for simple information. When we enter the next city, we will be registered again, and the inspection will be more detailed at that time.
Tang En nodded in understanding. After all, this place was close to the front line, and it was even during a war. Naturally, he did not dare to be careless in management. I was about to open my mouth to say something, but suddenly,
Hey! After the surprise, there was a loud sound of turning pages.
Tang En and Frey subconsciously turned their heads and saw Elt's body shaking violently in front of the table, almost helpless. Then Taka on the side looked over and had almost the same reaction. Because the two of them had their backs to each other, Tang En didn't know what was going on. However, from this strong body movement, Tang En had reason to believe that their faces must be shocked now.
At this time, Elt had turned around, holding a book in his hand. It should be the book they had just registered. He walked directly in front of Tang En and Frey with a few strides, pointing to a page of the book, with a strange expression. : Look.
Tang En lowered his head, and there were lines of writing on the pages of the book. Some pens are so powerful that they can penetrate the back of the paper, which is quite a sign of their skills. Some pens are like earthworms, showing their teeth and claws, simple and natural...
As for Erte's short, thick, carrot-shaped finger pointing at the location, his handwriting was excellent and seemed quite powerful. The content of the article is, Weiner, the deputy general of the Thunder Army!
Weiner? It seems a bit familiar... Before Tang En could react, a hoarse voice with extremely suppressed anger sounded next to his ear,
Red, fur, weasel!
Uh... (To be continued.)
