"It's possible that you're talking about it...... What is it? Lucy asked, and Willik and Bloy stared intently.

Alan and Catherine looked at each other and shook their heads. Catherine said: "It's useless to talk about this now, let me tutor you on the relevant matters of the reconnaissance group first." ”

The so-called "possibility", the two have different ideas. Catherine thinks of Eren who drank the blood of the king snake, and Eren thinks of the demon salute. Both of these are the "interests" that the two of them can think of, far beyond the sequence or the struggle of the new party. Naturally, such a topic should not be brought up for discussion in the current situation.

"The so-called reconnaissance regiment is a special organization that is responsible for a series of advance work such as investigating enemy strongholds on the front line, reconnoitering troops, mapping the terrain, and confirming the route of the march. The reconnaissance regiment did not focus on combat, but the mortality rate was not much lower than that of the forward battalion. That's because the area in which the reconnaissance mission is responsible is usually ignorant or where the Federation has very little information. When you go to such a place to investigate, the danger is usually unknown. And once exposed, often because there are no reinforcements, if you can't get out, you will only have one way to die in battle. Catherine saw that the faces of Allen and the others became a little unnatural, and coughed lightly: "Although the reconnaissance group is dangerous, it is better than going directly to the forward battalion. There is only one rule for the forward battalion, once the charge is launched, there is no way back, either open the enemy gates or die on the way to the charge. ”

"If you don't bring it up, will Russon throw us out of the forward camp?" Alan asked.

Catherine nodded, "Nine times out of ten, you should know that it is the best way to make an assessment of your 'interests' in a short period of time." ”

Willik looked at the two of them and sighed, "I don't understand what you're saying now, what do you say, big man?" ”

Bloy crossed his hands around his chest, his eyes closed, and his expression was deep. Willik narrowed his eyes and said, "Well, you're not listening at all, are you?" ”

"I know what I don't understand, and besides, I'm not good at analyzing this kind of thing." Bloy rightly said.

"Anyway, let's survive the scout. Your teacher, I'm afraid it will be a few more days before he reacts. I've heard that the interstellar defense line has been attacked by aliens again. Catherine glanced at Allen.

Alan clenched his fist and slammed it: "The teacher will be fine, so let's just live until she comes." ”

The secret tunnel is five kilometers long, and it crosses the Yales Mountains to reach a secret outpost of Death Transmission in the Plains of Alex. The sentinel was built under a hidden hill, and the entrance was disguised as a mountain. It's hard to find out if it's wrong. The director of the outpost, who was also the commander of the reconnaissance regiment, Second Lieutenant Gosa, was a man in his thirties. Beneath his short light brown hair is a lean face, and a long scar runs across the left eyebrow, eye, and cheek, which is said to have been caused by a mission that nearly caused the famous sword demon general to cut off his head.

"Major General Catherine, why did you come here in person?"

When he saw Catherine jumping out of the truck, Ensign Gosa thought his eyes were glazed. Death is notoriously ruthless, and Catherine, the god of death, actually came to this front-line outpost where birds don't, and no one will believe it when she says it. The second lieutenant of Godsa was a little excited, after all, it was rare to see a woman here, especially a beautiful woman like Catherine.

This moment would be even better if you didn't have to think of the horrific deeds about Catherine.

"This is Sergeant Allen, and I'll leave them to you, Second Lieutenant Gotha." Catherine ignored the excited look on the lieutenant's face and pointed back.

Alan jumped out of the car, and Willik, who was following him, also came down. Second Lieutenant Gotsa nodded, "I've been notified by headquarters, that's great." We're short of people, so it's a good time to have new people on board. Hey, are there any female soldiers? ”

His eyes fell on Lucy's body, and Lieutenant Gosa said in surprise. Catherine stepped forward and said, "This young lady is not on the list. You'll just think she's here for a vacation. ”

Holiday? The Godsa lieutenant was a little skeptical that he had misheard, what was this place, the entrance to the Plains of Alex. Advancing to the southwest, it is one of the ten sword demons, where a border camp of the Iron Hoof tribe is located. In addition to that, God knows how many other tribal strongholds there are on Alex. Soon, this plain will become a battlefield. Ensign Gotha didn't think it was a good place to spend a vacation.

But in this way, Catherine came specifically to protect this girl. The person who needs to be protected by the major general, no matter how stupid the second lieutenant is, knows that it is definitely not a high-ranking person that he can reach, and it may also be the son of a wealthy nobleman. Anyway, Catherine bothered, even if she wanted to go to the heart of the fire to hang out.

"Let's familiarize them with the sentinel today." Catherine said.

"This ......," Gosa said with a dry laugh, "there is actually a very urgent reconnaissance mission, and if they are okay, I hope the three of them will be able to leave immediately." ”

Catherine didn't want to be too close to Allen, shrugged her shoulders and said, "You are the person in charge here, so naturally you have the final say." ”

Godza looked at Ellen, even though Bloy seemed to be the older of the three. But both the Highlanders and Willik stood behind Allen, and it was clear who had the higher status. Alan nodded: "We can go at any time." ”

"That's great, you come with me." Gosa looked at Catherine again: "Major General, please ...... Visit. ”

He couldn't think of anything to visit about a humble outpost, but he couldn't have a better word. After Catherine nodded, Gosa left with the three Allen, and they walked into the ensign's office. A very simple room with a topographic map spread out on a table in the middle. Alan glanced at it, this is a topographic map, and it still needs to be corrected by the necessary numbers before it can be entered into the three-dimensional model.

Second Lieutenant Goresa flattened the slightly wrinkled map with his hand, took out a red pen in one of the corners and drew a circle: "According to our observations, the Ironhoof tribe has been active a lot recently. It stands to reason that winter is the season that Sword Demon dislikes the most. They will not choose to move at this time unless it is necessary. The information brought back from the previous scouts indicates that this qiē may have been in preparation for the attack on the Shadow Fortress, but we do not know the exact route and station settings of the other side. So the recent task is to figure out the shape of this area, and we have already reconnoitred all over the place. But there are still not enough people, and your arrival can be regarded as a solution to my urgent need. ”

"If you're all right, I'll need three of you to go to this coordinate location at once. Remember, our task is not to fight, but to observe and record. Get back the information we need, and you've done a great job. ”

Then he gave Allen the coordinates of the reconnaissance site, and Gosa said, "Wait here, I'll go and prepare food and water for you, as well as other necessities, for three days." ”

Leaving Alan and the others in the office, Gosa made his way to the warehouse, only to turn a corner and enter the communication station behind him. One of the communications soldiers inside was working, and Gosa closed the door and said to him, "Connect me with Major Luda." ”

Moments later, on the communication screen, Gosa saw Luda. The second lieutenant glanced at the communications man, who was willing to leave. Gosza said, "Major, they've arrived." ”

"Very well, did the coordinates give them?" Luda asked.

"Yes, but ......" Gotha hesitated, "It's a border stronghold of the Ironhoof tribe, if you go, ......"

"That's none of your business, Gosa. You just have to do what I say, these three guys dare to make trouble for me, I'm teaching them a lesson. Major Luda said with a hideous face: "Or are you not going to transfer back to the fortress?" ”

"Of course not, I wouldn't want to stay in a place like this for a minute longer." Second Lieutenant Gotha said nervously, "Then after this matter is done, how long will it take for the major to transfer me back." ”

"Rest assured, as little as ten days, as much as a month, you will definitely come back. Godsa, well done. But don't let Catherine know about it. ”

At the end of the communication, Gosa sighed and said, "Don't blame me, if you do, blame you for offending Major Luda." ”

He left the communications station, went to the warehouse and received the supplies for three people, and then returned to the office to hand over the things to Allen. The three of Allen checked themselves and confirmed the equipment and supplies before preparing to set off. Seeing Lucy at the entrance, Alan nodded and said, "We're going on a mission, we should be back in two or three days, you can stay here." ”

Lucy reluctantly said to Catherine, "Can't I go with me?" ”

"It's just a reconnaissance mission, there is no danger, Your Highness will stay here." Catherine said indifferently: "Otherwise, if you follow, according to the general's orders, I will also have to follow in order to take up the responsibility of protecting you." If the Sword Demon knew that a major general of the Federation had intruded into their territory, it would definitely lead to a series of accidents, which was definitely not what the general wanted to see. If Your Highness insists, then I will have to use the necessary means. ”

Lucy gritted her teeth and said, "You're a threat. ”

Catherine spread her hands and said, "It's better than the consequences." ”

Alan shook his head: "Stay with the major general." ”

"Okay then." Lucy said helplessly.

The trio left the outpost and followed the rugged mountain road towards the entrance to the Alex Plains. On the way, Willik reluctantly said, "Are we just going to let that one-eyed dragon lead the way by the nose?" ”

"Bear with me." Alan said: "For the time being, we can only do this, after all, we are in a weak position now. What's more, Catherine left Lucy, which was both protection and coercion. ”

Willik was surprised, "I thought that beautiful woman was on our side." ”

Alan shook his head: "Catherine is not that simple, for the time being, she is a little biased towards our side." But in the end, she will only be on her side. ”

"It seems that I can only obediently obey orders." Willik sighed.

"Not necessarily." Alan laughed: "Although it is more dangerous to be transferred to the reconnaissance group, the advantage is that Russen's vision cannot see so far." In order for us to live long enough, I think it will be necessary to cause some trouble for Russen and the spread of death. ”R1058
