Since Hunting Kong said that he had something to do at night, Li Xiang naturally could not go back to Lighthouse Academy.
As the evening approached, clusters of fire rose from the campsite in the General's Mansion. Heavy trucks drove out from the warehouses in the city one after another. Burly warriors excitedly carried down boxes of liquor and slaughtered pigs, cows, and sheep.
Seeing these goods, Li Xiang's heart ached. According to Hunting Kong's price, a box of liquor and a set of meat (a black pig, a fat cow, and a Northern sheep) was a standard tube of Source Gas.
That was 100,000 Blue Astral Coins!
The major forces controlled the resources of fishing, livestock, and livestock. There was no telling how much meat they had. There were even many giant creatures. This kind of meat was sold at a very low price.
As for the so-called liquor, it was nothing compared to the liquor served in the high-end bars of the super commercial buildings in the regular numbered cities.
Seeing the excitement of the border warriors, Li Xiang's heart was filled with coldness and sorrow.
"How long has it been since you went to the mainland?" Li Xiang glanced at Hunting Kong, who was next to him. She had changed into a tight black leather suit that showed off her figure. The front of the suit was zipped all the way to the bottom. A small pendant with a demon sculpture was hanging from the buckle. The zipper was open to her navel. Because the leather suit was tight, her smooth, snow-white skin was exposed bit by bit. It was very tempting.
The small pendant happened to block the part that Li Xiang wanted to see the most.
"I've seen dishonest people, but I've never seen anyone as blatant as you!" Hunting Kong spat at him and held his arm naturally. "The mainland? When I was five or six years old, I went to the first zone of the subcontinent with my mother. It was a remote northern city, but the scenery there was beautiful and the atmosphere was very different from the border. It was great. "
Li Xiang exclaimed. No wonder the border warriors were so bumpkins. They had been cut off from the world for so many years.
"Only once? I'll take you there when we have the chance. " Li Xiang said casually. When it came to flirting, he was not bad. However, when it came to getting along with girls, he was not as good as the children of the aristocratic families.
To him, women were a rather troublesome and mysterious creature.
If he could get close to Orion, he would have a chance to get close to Andrea Gamma. She was the highest-ranking member of the Rose Maids that he had met so far. Every maid had a different personality. At least, he could not see the shadow of a maid in her.
As long as Li Xiang was still in Lighthouse Academy, he would inevitably cross paths with the border. If Andrea could lend him a helping hand, or if he had someone like Hunting Kong to assist him, then his business and everything else would be greenlit.
Besides, Li Xiang would have to return to District One of the Subcontinent continent during the holidays. By then, he would have to face a large number of enemies who were eager to fight. Hunter was a good bodyguard.
Obviously, this beautiful female warrior didn't guess Li Xiang's thoughts. She just nodded slightly and led him to a camp on the west side.
"City 0010 has a total of ten border cities. Each city has a hundred such 100-man squads stationed there. Each city will have a guard member as the captain of the city's brigade. The city code is the name of the squad. This is the first squad. Ten captains and ten guards make up Mother's personal guards. The total number of people in the squads will never change. Once a soldier dies and there is a vacancy, outstanding soldiers will be selected from the reserve training camps in each city to fill the vacancy. "
"First Squad?" It was a strange title, but it was normal. This world was deeply influenced by the culture of the Blue Planet. Many messy languages and cultures were common.
From Hunting Kong's description, Lu Li knew that the border used the simplest and most brutal way to encourage soldiers to climb up.
Everyone who was transferred to the border, except for interns, would be assigned to the reserve training camps. When their seniors died, they would replace them. Then, they would be promoted from the lowest-ranking squads to the personal guards.
Their strength would increase step by step.
As for the interns and soldiers, they would be assigned to some clerical work or patrol work.
Those were the benefits of the disabled soldiers at the border.
After going around in circles, Li Xiang finally got the information he had been waiting for.
"The Floating Ship Incident? So that's what you want to ask. It's a confidential document, but Mother sent a message saying that I can tell you whatever you want, so it doesn't matter. That rescue mission was obviously a suicide mission. As for the two survivors, they are now working in the research institute in City No. 5. One of them is a major called Bian Hetu, and the other is called Wang … "Hunting Void frowned. He could not remember anything.
After all, the rescue mission was completed by a player rescue team. It had little to do with the border troops.
"Wang Chongyue," Li Xiang continued. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes.
"You know him?"
"Yes, very close. I was the one who discovered the incident. " Li Xiang sighed. He did not hide it from her. "Unfortunately, no one was saved in the end. Those bastards from the tarot cards succeeded."
"It's not your fault. The one who did it was The Hanged Man, a powerhouse at Mother's level." Hunting Kong squeezed his palm gently to comfort him.
"There are many things that we can't control," Hunting Kong added. She thought that she had cultivated very quickly. Although she did not participate in the so-called important coming of age ceremony or the ultimate trial, she had experienced enough killing at the border.
Eighteen years old, Level 1 Magician.
However, Andrea's level was still very far away from them.
"I don't like my fate being controlled by others," Li Xiang replied coldly. The determination in his eyes made her heart tremble slightly.
The two of them came to a camp in silence. A few burning bunches of fire roasted the bodies and cheeks of the warriors. Dozens of people sat on the ground and spread out the strong alcohol and meat that they had brought, helping themselves.
Li Xiang then noticed that there was a dark red flag in every big camp. There was a number on the tattered flag, which should be the team number.
This was "169."
The first two hundred out of a thousand teams were already at the elite level.
"Yo, did you see that? There were too many unnecessary movements in the battle today. Three hundred people against a thousand mutants, and only thirty or so survived," a big man shouted rudely.
Laughter and curses came from all around.
"After all, they were the last in number. It's not bad that some of them survived. However, a university student from outside seems very fierce. I took a look and he's very strong."
Li Xiang listened to their discussion and was shocked. A slightly more ferocious mutant would require a few Level 1 Magic Apprentices to besiege and kill it. The border warriors were able to win with a loss ratio of one to three. He felt that they were ridiculously strong, but in their words, they were the last in number?
"Tsk, is the university student you're talking about tall, thin, handsome, and has a black box?"
"Yeah, and he's with Captain Hunting Kong. I heard that he's a pretty boy that Captain Hunting Kong keeps outside. Hey, what's so good about that pretty boy? I'm afraid he can't satisfy Captain Hunting Kong. "
“.....”
Hunting Kong's face turned red. No matter how forthright she was, she was naturally at a disadvantage with men in this kind of joke.
"Captain Hunting Kong's waist and abdomen are so strong. I'm afraid he'll break that pretty boy in half. Hahaha!"
The jokes with color were getting more and more explicit. Li Xiang wiped his sweat. He was afraid that he would see a typical case of trouble coming from a loose tongue.
He did not expect that Hunting Kong would just quietly bring him into the camp. When they saw the two of them, the group of big men immediately shut up and ran to serve wine and barbecue.
There was no cursing or fighting as he had expected.
Hunting Kong took a big bowl of wine and drank it in one gulp. She said proudly to Li Xiang, "I heard that you asked Mother for a hundred-man team? This team of warriors is my people. If you have the ability, take them and use them! "
Her voice was full of vigor. The warriors laughed and nodded in agreement.
"As long as you can beat me in drinking tonight." Hunting Kong smiled, showing her white teeth. She stuffed an entire bottle of unopened hard liquor into his arms.
Li Xiang was stunned for a moment, then he laughed softly.
