When Yang Zi Qing heard He Si Ji's high evaluation of the Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts, he immediately knew that they had let go of a big fish, and could not help but feel regret.
All his attention was on the fleet that was constantly approaching.
Only a few strong martial artists would view it as a form of training. But even these powerful martial artists would easily lose their lives in the Sea of Energy. It was Yang Zi Qing's first time hearing of an army training in the Sea of Energy, wasn't that seeking death? Wouldn't the soldiers rebel?
The light regiments floating around the fleet were densely packed, with at least a few thousand people. A few thousand strong martial artists? Impossible!
He Si Ji did not know how to continue.
There was even a period of time where Yang Zi Qing secretly guessed that Master He Si Ji had suffered an injury on his face in the past, and was left with facial paralysis.
Master He Si Ji was an old soldier that abided by tradition, and had always maintained a poker face. Even in the most dangerous situations, there was no change in his expression. Yang Zi Qing had interacted with him for so long, but had never seen any change in the old man's expression.
Could it be that their Vast Star Continent was actually defeated by a group of beggars? Yang Zi Qing was in disbelief, he felt that there was a possibility that the fleet was recruited from somewhere by the Shang Continent.
"Yes, they are training their synchronization." He Si Ji's eyes flashed with a light aura: "From the flow of energy, their synchronization has reached a terrifying degree. Looking at the blood stains on their clothes, they should have a doctor with them. Looking at the damage on their equipment, they have definitely trained in the Sea of Energy for a long time. The enemy's military leader is very experienced, and has received proper military education, and is extremely solid. "
He Si Ji had a pair of blue eyes, his aquiline nose made him look somewhat stern and stern, he stood perfectly straight, the military uniform on his body was meticulous. He did not reveal any emotions, and the expression on his face gave people the feeling that it was carved out of stone.
Yang Zi Qing had never seen such a shabby army before.
"The real Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts?" Yang Zi Qing was startled once again.
"Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts?" Yang Zi Qing was startled, but then snorted: "No wonder! The Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts are the most untrustworthy, they are indecisive people! "
"It should work." He Si Ji muttered: "As long as we increase the training, we can specially design tactics for them, and raise their individual strength. An army that was transformed like that was extremely useful. Look at them, they no longer have the slippery aura of mercenaries. On the contrary, they have the aura of elites. Their formation seemed to be unorganized, but there was actually something special about it. It should be a specially designed tactic. The enemy's commander is very impressive. "
He actually has a mercenary group under him? Could it be that they did not have enough soldiers? Yang Ziqing was puzzled.
Then why?
He Si Ji noticed Yang Zi Qing's expression, but he did not get angry. Even he himself thought that it was impossible when he first thought about it.
Very quickly, Yang Zi Qing came to his senses and couldn't help but mock himself in his heart. Why am I thinking so much? Lord He Si Ji had a pair of eyes that could see through everything.
What was it that could cause the iron-faced old man to reveal such a shocked expression?
Yang Ziqing narrowed his eyes and said uncertainly, "It seems to be flowing?"
He Si Ji shook his head: "Don't underestimate them. The content of their training was clearly targeted. Small-scale infiltration and intersecting attacks were very sharp. The enemy's commander in chief should be thinking of building them into an army that specializes in urban warfare, it's a genius idea! "
Yang Zi Qing pointed to the group at the back that obviously had fewer people: "What about the group at the back? They seem to have less people. "
He Si Ji was extremely sensitive to the aura released by the army.
~ Training in the Sea of Energy? Are they tired of living? ~
That was the reason why He Si Ji followed them, the Shang Continent's military strength was completely exposed to the old general. The old general's evaluation would determine their mission.
Shi Sen's betrayal was originally not a big deal, he was just a commander of a cannon fodder army that was made a figurehead. But the silver grade general Sun Jie had also lost his life to him, and that caused an uproar, and that was the first time his name entered the ears of the higher ups of the Vast Star Continent.
He Si Ji who was by his side watched attentively. He Si Ji was the military minister of the Vast Star Continent, and he and Yang Zi Qing were the left and right arms of the Continent Lord. Yang Zi Qing was in charge of internal affairs, while He Si Ji was well versed in military affairs. When he was young, he was a famous general with outstanding military achievements, but as he grew older, his body weakened, and he had no choice but to return from the frontlines, and was in charge of teaching the talented youths in the continent. Out of all the silver grade generals in the Vast Star Continent, a third of them were groomed by him, and the rest had all received pointers from him, thus his reputation in the Vast Star Continent was second only to the Continent Lord.
Suddenly, he reacted, and his face became unnatural: "Shi Sen! That is Shi Sen! "
The two of them looked at each other, they were excited and worried at the same time.
But he quickly frowned, he had crossed paths with Bing before, that crafty and crafty man would definitely not make such a low level mistake. And there was also Crane, that quiet young man definitely had noble blood flowing in his body, and was similarly not someone who could be easily fooled.
"Mercenary army?" Yang Zi Qing was startled: "What do they want to do with a mercenary army?"
Yang Zi Qing nodded his head, He Si Ji was truly worthy of being an old general who had groomed a few silver grade generals, his sharp eyes were far from what Yang Zi Qing could compare to.
He Si Ji was extremely familiar with Yang Zi Qing, and did not hide anything, and said: "Exactly the opposite. If this old man did not guess wrongly, this group must have just gone through a long and arduous journey. No, it should be in the Sea of Energy, undergoing training on foot. "
What kind of place was the Sea of Energy? Danger lurked everywhere, and it was a place where people could lose their lives at any time. There were energy corrosion everywhere, and the unstable chaotic energy flow, even warships sailing in the Sea of Energy would easily have accidents.
"Those are not armies." It was the first time He Si Ji revealed an uncertain tone: "They might be strong martial artists."
"Strong martial artists?" Yang Zi Qing was dumbstruck.
It was Yang Zi Qing's second time coming to the Shang Continent, he had just arrived, and witnessed the strange fleet entering the Shang Continent.
"We did not lose unjustly." He Si Ji regained his usual expressionless face: "The other party's strength far exceeds ours."
Just at that moment, the old man heaved a sigh of relief.
Yang Zi Qing acutely sensed the dispirited look on the old man's face.
He Si Ji was full of praises.
"They have three armies." He Si Ji said solemnly, he knew that his evaluation was crucial to Yang Zi Qing's judgement, so he decided to tell Yang Zi Qing everything that he had observed, so that Yang Zi Qing could refer to them.
He Si Ji's expression became serious: "Those are the Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts."
For some reason, Yang Zi Qing's heart jumped.
He did not explain further, it was just a guess.
"The first army is a typical standard army. Look at the way they are advancing, furthermore, notice the energy flow around them. "He Si Ji said.
This topic made him feel uncomfortable, and he immediately asked: "What about the people behind them that are covered in light?"
He almost thought that he had heard wrongly, the Vast Star Continent had organized a few training in the Sea of Energy, but that was in fleets. Training in the Sea of Energy on foot? If not for the fact that these words came from He Si Ji, whom Yang Zi Qing respected, he would have snorted.
Yang Zi Qing was cautious and curious: "I hope Master can give me some pointers, Zi Qing does not understand much, and can't tell what's so special about them? Their equipment seems to be tattered, and look somewhat unpresentable. "
He Si Ji knew that Yang Zi Qing was not clear about such things, and explained: "There are many fake Underworld Continent Demonic Mounts in the market, and it is extremely common. There are very few real Underworld Continent Demonic Mounts, and their examinations are extremely strict, and they are extremely strong. To be able to gather 500 real Underworld Continent Demonic Mounts, that is extremely rare! Do not look down on these 500 people, their fighting strength is extremely terrifying. They are most likely the last batch of Underworld Continent Demonic Mounts, and now is the time where they crave for glory the most, and must not be enemies with them! "
"The second army, should be a mercenary army." He Si Ji continued.
Yang Zi Qing's expression was somewhat tired, the unstable situation in the Vast Star Continent had caused him to be mentally and physically exhausted. He had come here in hopes of forming an alliance with the Shang Continent, and just relying on the Vast Star Continent's own strength, they were unable to intimidate the wolves that were eyeing them covetously.
Yang Zi Qing calmed down: "Seems like, they are very strong."
Yang Zi Qing was also curiously observing the fleet.
Yang Zi Qing did not disturb him, He Si Ji was much older than him, and even he had to respectfully address him as "Master" in front of the old general.
"They are extremely strong!" He Si Ji was extremely certain.
Yang Zi Qing still had some doubts in his heart: "Is that possible?"
Even He Si Ji felt that it was impossible for there to be so many strong martial artists, and spoke with hesitation: "Their individual strength is not bad, but their coordination is too weak, no, they are completely uncoordinated, that is why I said they are not an army. The light regiments on their bodies should be miraculous, as for so many people …. "
When Yang Zi Qing saw the shock on Master He Si Ji's face, a strong sense of curiosity and unease rose in his heart.
There was nothing worth praising about the fleet, and his attention was attracted to the soldiers with dust all over their faces. He was surprised, all of the soldiers were skinny, their faces covered in dust, their clothes were tattered and tattered, they looked like a group of beggars who were scavenging for scraps.
The strength of an army for hire was far weaker than a regular army. Even if they were both silver grade armies, a regular silver grade army could easily destroy a silver grade army for hire. Regardless of quality, training or equipment, an army for hire could not be compared to a regular army. Even the famous armies for hire had a fundamental difference from a regular army.
"No, they are the true Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts." He Si Ji's face revealed a rare look of regret, the Vast Star Continent actually had the true Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts, but he did not know about it.
Yang Zi Qing's face revealed a look of shock: "Master is saying, they are training in the Sea of Energy?"
He turned and was about to ask He Si Ji, but he noticed the shock on He Si Ji's face.
The reputation of the Underworld Continent's Demonic Mounts was not good, other than the fact that it was hard to differentiate between the real and the fake, they were notorious for killing their masters. Yang Zi Qing's face revealed a look of disgust.
