"But what?"
The old man sighed: "I haven't seen these strange beasts before. Although there aren't many of them, but we have suffered heavy casualties. Last night in the early hours of the morning, the sentinels in front of us sent a warning. They said that there were traces of fire dragons and a lot of beasts heading towards us. It is estimated that the beasts were driven by them. At present, the number of beasts is' II '. I'm afraid that we won't be able to defend if they concentrate on attacking area 7. That's why I sent a message to the Empire overnight to ask for reinforcements."
Dean who was quietly listening to the old man's words was moved. Sent a message last night? Felicia said that it would take more than a month to reach the Empire from here. Didn't it mean that it only took them one night to send the message to the Empire?
Or even faster. After all, if the Empire had received the message and sent people immediately, then it would take time for the three envoys to arrive.
Thinking of the flying speed of the purple-winged dragon, Dean estimated in his heart. He felt that if there was no hindrance all the way, it would be as long as they traveled on land for more than a month. This was probably the efficiency of the 'air force'.
"'II' level of beasts?" The youth's face changed. There was a trace of dignified look in his eyes.
The old man nodded: "The information we got isn't very accurate, but it is usually about 80% accurate. At present, I have sent people to patrol the front of the fortress. If there is any movement, they will immediately report back. I'm relieved that the three of you have come to reinforce us. If there is no accident then we should be able to defend!"
"The matter of border defense is an important matter. There can't be any accidents. Otherwise it will be our dereliction of duty!" The young man with the brush cut showed his attitude, and then glanced at the warriors around him. He frowned and said, "There aren't many of your weird demonic beasts. How can you cause such heavy casualties among the warriors? Is it a group of high-level monsters? "
The old man shook his head and smiled: "In terms of combat effectiveness, they are not as good as our soldiers. But their lurking ability is extremely strong. The sentinels in front of us are not aware of them. Moreover, their bodies are poisonous and they will explode when they die. It will form a poisonous area. If more than a dozen of them explode in the same place, then the poisonous gas will be released. Many soldiers were unable to guard against it and the poisonous gas entered their bodies. They are currently being treated by the medical team. But the situation is not very optimistic. Many soldiers have died due to the poisoning."
"So powerful?" The young man's expression changed slightly. It was common for soldiers to be injured or poisoned, but it was a great loss if they died. These soldiers were trained with great effort. They were the most elite soldiers in the Imperial Military Department. Each of them was trained with countless resources and money!
Dean was also shocked. The monsters were not as powerful as the pioneers, but they had caused so much damage to the border. Sure enough, strength was not the only criterion to judge the enemy. Many low-level monsters had more terrible soft power than the abyss!
"Let's talk as we walk." The old man turned around and glanced at Dean: "This young man's strength is not weak. What are you going to do?"
"Just follow the arrangements of the other temporarily recruited soldiers." The young man said without thinking. He knew that the reason why the old man noticed Dean was not because Dean was an abyss expert but because he was worried that Dean was brought by them. Perhaps Dean had a close relationship with them. Or perhaps he was the child of a big shot in the empire. The old man wanted to take this opportunity to send him to the border to accumulate military achievements.
"Got it." The old man nodded. Since the young man said so, it meant that what he said before was not a lie. This young man was really an unlucky guy that the old man met on the road and recruited temporarily.
"Lisa, arrange this young man," the old man said to a tall woman in a silver-gray military uniform behind him.
The woman was wearing red glasses and a military cap. Her temperament was sexy and charming, but also a bit cold and arrogant. Any man who saw her would be moved. She responded indifferently: "Yes!"
The old man led the young man and the other two to leave the place. The rest of the people followed and surrounded them like stars around the moon. Only Dean, the female officer named Lisa, and the soldiers were left in the place.
"What's your name?" Lisa turned to look at Dean.
Dean thought for a moment and said: "Dean."
"Dudi?" Lisa looked at him and nodded. "Come with me."
Dean immediately followed her with Haisha.
The top of the Wall of War was very wide. The inner part was the living area where the soldiers camped. The outer part was the line of defense. Some enemies who broke through the layers of attacks and climbed to the top of the wall would often be killed outside the line of defense. It was also a temporary battlefield on the wall. The ground was always filled with the smell of blood.
Dean followed Lisa through the barracks. After a long time, they came to another pile of tents. There were also soldiers stationed nearby, but there were not many idle warriors. Moreover, they were different from the warriors outside the barracks that Dean passed first. Although these warriors were wandering, sitting together chatting, and even gambling, they were all wearing military uniforms and armor. It seemed that they were ready to go at any time.
At first glance, the soldiers here gave off a feeling of laziness. Almost none of them wore a complete set of military armor. Some of them only wore military pants and a white shirt, looking very loose and casual. Some of them had messy hair and yawned as if they had just woken up.
All the people's faces changed when they saw Lisa come over. The people who were laughing and joking immediately stopped.
Soon, everyone's attention shifted to Dean and Aisha who were following behind Lisa. Some people's eyes flashed when they saw Aisha. They seemed to be aware of something. Some people looked at Dean and Aisha with gloating eyes. Some people had sympathetic eyes.
Lisa didn't pay attention to the people who were wandering outside the barracks. She went straight to a large tent in the middle of the barracks. It was very spacious inside. There was a desk at the top. A bald man was sitting on it. His feet were on the desk. He was holding a young woman in military uniform in his arms. Her snow-white hemisphere and flat abdomen were as smooth as silk. A rough hand was moving over and kneading them.
The big hand was bigger than the woman's waist. It seemed that it could break her waist with one hand.
Seeing Lisa come in, the two of them stopped in their passion. When the baldy looked up and saw that it was Lisa, he immediately swallowed the vulgarities that had rushed to the tip of his tongue. He said angrily, "Can't you get someone to inform us?"
Lisa looked at him indifferently: "Is it necessary? Even if you are at a critical time, I can wait by the side. It's also good to watch a live performance. It's good to relieve my fatigue."
Dean didn't expect that a beauty like Lisa, who looked like an iceberg, would say such tough words. Sure enough, you can't judge a person by their appearance. But he had seen a lot of people like her. These days, shy girls were much rarer than passionate aunties.
The bald man rolled his eyes. He pushed the young girl away and waved his hand, motioning her to leave.
The girl nodded obediently. She put on her clothes and left with small steps. When she passed by Dean, she glanced at him. She saw that Dean was also looking at her. Her cheeks turned crimson. She showed a touch of shyness and hurried away.
Dean's face was calm. He knew that the shy expression on the girl's face was deliberate. In fact, some prostitutes who received countless customers could do the same. As long as there was a need, there would be a supply.
Lisa casually walked to the side and sat down. She glanced at Dean who was standing at the entrance of the tent and said: "This is the temporary recruitment camp. What are you good at? What are the magic marks? Tell this bald man and let him arrange suitable soldiers for you. He will be your boss in the future. Of course, he will be the second boss when I am here."
The bald man's face was full of black lines. But he had long been familiar with her temperament. It wasn't the first time that such a thing happened. He ignored Lisa and asked Dean: "Look at your appearance. You should be from the abyss. Very good. Such a level of master is rare in this temporary recruitment camp. What is your name? Also, what is the matter with the corpse king next to you? "
He showed a more interested look. But he didn't think that the corpse king was under Dean's control. It was too unrealistic.
Dean frowned: "My name is Dean. I caught her in the wilderness. After the recruitment period is over I will return to the empire and give her to the king." Along the way, he heard the others call the Holy Kingdom "Empire", so he also changed the way he addressed it and deliberately used the word "return" to hint at his identity. At present, only three people knew that he came out from the wall. But he felt that the three of them wouldn't deliberately tell others that he came out from the wall and wasn't a person of the Kingdom of God.
As for the accent problem, Dean thought of a lot of excuses. For example, he was sent out to perform tasks when he was a child. Also, he had internships in the wall and so on.
"Is it for the king?" Baldy and Lisa glanced at each other slightly, but they did not show any strange expressions. Baldy nodded and said, "This Corpse King seems to be abyssal grade. To be able to capture an abyssal grade Corpse King, your ability is not small. However, Corpse Kings are easy to cultivate. There is no difference between abyssal grade and hunter-grade. It should not be able to exchange for many things. Why don't you give it to me?
Dean frowned: "What are you going to do?"
Baldy didn't care that Dean's tone was slightly rude. He used an expression of "You are a man so you should understand" and said: "Of course it is to have fun. You just came here so you don't know how boring it is here. Drinking is prohibited and gambling can't last more than an hour. The only thing left for entertainment is women. I'm tired of playing with the girls outside. I haven't been an Undead for a long time. Hehe, I really miss it!"
I miss it! "Dean's eyes flashed with a cold light. His fingers clenched but soon loosened. He lowered his head and restrained the killing intent in his body. After a moment he slowly said:" I'm going to give her to the king. I'm afraid it won't be good if I can't send her to him. "
The bald man chuckled: "What are you talking about? You should have been temporarily recruited when you were out on a mission. You haven't returned to the empire yet. How can you tell the king about this thing? Besides, why would the Sovereign King contact you? It's not a good habit to learn to lie the moment you arrive. "
Dean's fingers slightly trembled. He lowered his head and shook his head: "I didn't lie. The captain of the fifth squad of the Blood Thorn Legion, Phineas, was going to recruit both of us. But she has an important task and has to go back. I mentioned it to her. She should help me report to the king, so …"
"Phineas?" The bald man slightly frowned. He hadn't heard of this name. But it seemed that Dean wasn't lying. The smile on the bald man's face quickly disappeared. He stared at Dean while his fingers gently tapped on the table. The atmosphere in the tent seemed to be a bit depressing.
If it was someone else, they would have been very nervous at this moment.
But Dean was desperately restraining himself, restraining his own killing intent.
"How about you lend me a few days? I'll clean her up and return her to you. How about it?" The bald man emphasized each word.
There was silence in the tent.
The silence lasted for a long time before Dean's voice came: "What if I don't want to?"
The bald man's eyes suddenly turned cold. Just as he was about to speak, Leisha suddenly interrupted and said impatiently: "Okay, let's talk business. What are you talking about? You fool around with women every day, and now you're a walking dead. Aren't you afraid that your thing will be infected or bitten by you?"
The coldness in the bald man's eyes faded as if nothing had happened. His face once again showed a smile: "I'm just kidding. Why are you so serious? I was just joking. But the excitement of an Undead is really different. You haven't experienced it yet. Besides, how can it be infected with an isolation membrane? Remember the Undead I used to deal with? I broke its teeth and handed my work to it. Don't even mention how cool it was when it desperately bit me! "
"Enough!" Lisa frowned and scolded: "It's not over yet. Did your sperm get to your brain?!"
The bald man's face slightly changed as he knew that the joke had gone too far. He scratched his head: "I'm just joking. Well, I won't say it. It's all your fault. You made me hold back my anger."
Lisa stared at him.
The bald man smiled and no longer mentioned the matter. He looked up at Dean and said in a serious tone: "What is your magic mark? Tell me your specific strength so that I can arrange you into the corresponding army."
