When the 'young man' arrived, a large number of soldiers were already engaged in a bitter battle.
He was part of the 7th Division, and Mia was also in a difficult situation. Her assault rifle had probably run out of bullets, and there was no time to reload. She was waving her light red Dark Sword in all directions to deal with the pale monsters that were madly pouncing on her.
These pale monsters were different from the ones they encountered before. Their masks showed that their energy levels were very high, especially the black-armored monsters, which were almost at a terrifying level seven or eight.
If it wasn't for the fact that they didn't have any combat skills, and were purely relying on their instincts to kill, the soldiers here would have been long dead.
But even so, the soldiers were dying at an extremely high rate. The green dots on the masks were visibly decreasing, but the red dots did not decrease by much.
This meant that against the monsters here, they could all be wiped out!
The 'young man's' mission was still to assist his teammates in setting up heavy weapons, but he was very doubtful that they would be able to retreat in time. They might even be treated as the last ones and abandoned.
After killing a pale monster, they got the target high ground and quickly assembled their weapons. Using this gap, the 'young man' took a look at the battlefield.
The place was very narrow, which was not good for his side to deploy their weapons. On the contrary, the monsters with the advantage in numbers could easily intercept the soldiers. They could drill out from the top of the cave, underground, walls and other directions to attack at any time.
The situation was very unfavorable.
But the good thing was that the order was not to fight to the death and kill all the monsters, but to retreat after achieving their goal.
Mia said that the target had been found, so it must be within their line of sight. Otherwise, there would be no point in killing so many people here.
But there was nothing special here. Other than the dark cave behind the monsters, there was a large stone tablet in the flickering light, there was nothing unnatural.
However, he soon discovered some details. He discovered it when he was beside Mia.
She was trying to get close to a few small boxes that were blocked by the monsters, and those boxes were definitely unnatural.
With the help of a large number of reinforcements, and the heavy weapons, Mia and the others successfully snatched one of the boxes. But the monsters seemed to value the box very much, and immediately started a fight to the death with them.
Another team also snatched a box, and just as they were about to retreat, they were attacked by a black-armored monster that drilled out from the ground, and half of them died on the spot.
The box also fell to the ground, and was destroyed. A large pile of books rolled out from inside!
Books?
The 'lad' did not know why there were books here, but when he controlled the mask to zoom in on the books, he vaguely felt that the words on the books looked familiar.
The problem was that he was illiterate.
His head started to hurt again. He could only force himself not to look at the words in the book or think about it. Instead, he increased the frequency of the assault rifle's firing.
It was unknown if it was because the box was destroyed, but many books were burned in the flames of battle. Although both sides tried to save the books, the ferocious nature of the monsters was immediately stimulated. They roared continuously, and for a moment, the soldiers were forced to retreat, and the number of casualties increased rapidly!
Mia snatched a chest and immediately retreated, but she was immediately targeted by a black-armoured monster and at least a dozen pale-looking monsters. They surrounded her from all sides and fought fiercely.
The soldiers around her rushed to help her, but in the end, she relied on her superb sword fighting skills to escape from the encirclement.
The 'young man' did not have the time to see the process clearly. He was also under a lot of pressure as pale monsters kept appearing and trying to take down the heavy weapons position next to him.
At this point, the battle was already over. The frontline of the soldiers began to collapse, and they retreated.
The heavy weapons position behind them were also destroyed. The black-armoured monsters and pale-looking monsters roared as they chased after them.
The sharpshooter beside the 'young man' signalled to them. He and the soldiers controlling the heavy weapons understood what it meant. At this time, staying alive was more important!
Without saying anything, the three of them tacitly abandoned their heavy weapons and retreated.
At this time, on the path of retreat of the soldiers, seven or eight black-armoured monsters suddenly appeared, completely blocking their path of retreat.
One black-armoured monster was already hard enough to deal with, seven or eight of them together, it was like a god of death!
Everything felt like a trap, the 'young man' had an inexplicable feeling.
Screams came one after another, and the soldiers that had charged in all collapsed. This was not the collapse of their will to fight, they were all elites, but they simply did not have the strength to continue fighting.
In the chaos, the 'young man' saw Mia fly out, hit the cave wall, and then bounced back up. She was barely alive.
Her box was also thrown on the ground, rolled a few times, and landed not far away from him.
Just when he was hesitating whether to pick up the box or not, Mia anxiously shouted from the mud, "Cespia, box, box!"
The 'young man' suddenly remembered that Mia had said that only by achieving military merit would she have a reason to help them get back their property from Niyue. And now he also knew that the target of this operation was these boxes.
He subconsciously raised his assault gun and shot at a pale-looking monster that was close to the box, but at the same time, another two black-armoured monsters approached.
Armor-piercing bullets were useless against them, so he could only watch as they killed the soldiers and approached the box step by step.
At this time, the black-armoured monsters were not far away from him.
"Draw your sword, draw your sword!"
Mia struggled to get up with her heavily injured body, but her bones were probably broken, and she fell heavily on the ground again. She used all her strength to shout at the 'young man'.
She seemed to have forgotten that the 'young man' did not use a sword.
And at this time, the 'young man' had two choices, one was to draw his sword and fight again, the other was to turn around and run.
But the box seemed to be very attractive to him, not only because of the military merit, but also because of that familiar feeling.
So, his hand stopped on the sword hilt for a moment, as if he would draw his sword in the next moment and kill all the monsters that were pouncing on him.
However, under Mia's nervous and hopeful gaze, the 'young man's' hand never fell on the sword hilt. In the end, he did not draw his sword, but instead, he casually buckled a stone from the wall, jumped up, and ruthlessly smashed it on the head of the black-armoured monster that was pouncing on him.
Mia closed her eyes, and hung her head in despair.
…
But the scream that she imagined did not happen. When she came back to her senses and raised her head again, the 'young man' was stepping on the corpse of the black-armoured monster that had its head smashed to pieces.
There was another black-armoured monster in front of him.
Mia did not know what had just happened, but she did not believe that the 'young man' could use an ordinary stone to smash a monster of Energy Rank 7 to 8 to death, not to mention that this monster had a strong shell!
But then, she completely saw how the flashing 'young man' used the stone to smash the second black-armoured monster to death.
There were no fancy combat skills, no precise positioning, no violent roar, nothing at all. He just walked forward, jumped up, and simply smashed it down …
Then, the black-armoured monster's head was smashed to pieces, and it immediately fell to the ground.
How could it be?
That was just an ordinary stone!
Mia's mind was a little confused. She did not notice that the 'young man' only felt that there should be something in his hand to use the stone. In fact, it was not the stone that killed the black-armoured monster, but his fist.
After smashing two black-armoured monsters to death, the other pale monsters were frightened, and did not dare to pounce on him.
The 'young man' picked up the box on the ground, and then continued to use the stone to clear the way, quickly skimming to the back. When he passed by Mia, he also held her under his armpit. He still had to rely on this female officer to get back his property, he could not let her die.
Following the path that he opened with the 'stone', his two heavy weapons team members immediately followed behind and fled. The other soldiers were also elites, and seeing this, they immediately knew that this was the moment to live, so they all followed closely and quickly retreated from the battlefield.
…
Cesbia had done a meritorious service, and it was a super meritorious service!
Not only did he successfully bring back the target of the operation, but he also almost single-handedly saved a few teams of soldiers.
The key was that Cesbia was actually not injured at all!
When Zhuo Ma heard this news, he could not sit still no matter what. He immediately rushed to visit the 'young man'.
However, he was told that Cesbia and Captain Mia were heading to the Purple Emblem Hull Family, and he would not be able to see them for the time being.
However, although he did not see them, the treatment of Zhuo Ma and the other two in the base immediately went up a few levels, especially those who were saved by the 'young man'. They all came to express their gratitude. They did not know where they got the news, but when they heard that Zhuo Ma's property was seized by the Blue Emblem Dean Family, they all expressed to Zhuo Ma that they would go to the Dean Family together to seek justice for him!
These people were not only from the 7th Detachment, but also from other detachments, and even the military elites that had nothing to do with the Hull Family. If they really all went to the Dean Family to seek justice, it would be a powerful force, and many people would be alarmed.
At this moment, although the 'young man' was on the way to the Hull Family, his mind was completely focused on when to get back his property.
"Don't worry, I will go personally. Maybe the Chief Commander will also come."
Mia, who had just undergone treatment, still could not move easily. She seemed to have seen through the 'young man's' mind and said with a smile.
Although the loss of this operation was huge, they had completed the important goal that all the previous operations had failed to achieve. They brought back that box of priceless books. With the situation of Planet 187 approaching day by day, this matter was extremely significant.
The scientists were already working on deciphering those words. They had obtained a book by chance before, and now that they had a box of books to refer to, their progress was very fast.
It was said that if they completely understood the theory in that box of books, their scientific theory system would make a leap!
This was a meritorious service, a far-reaching and very urgent meritorious service!
The Hull Family immediately summoned the Chief Commander of the detachment, and the Great Temple also sent a major commendation.
Now, they were going to meet the young lady of the Hull Family – Hull Chudai.
