Willik exclaimed, just hugged his head and face, and activated the source power to protect his body. The wave of fire suddenly lowered and disappeared, and Eren withdrew his bone knife. Willik then said, "This is your new ability?" ”

"Re-ignition, a trap-type ability. It can be placed in a certain area in advance, and can be activated when the time limit is reached or guided by me. Alan rested the bone knife on his shoulder and smiled: "I'm not good at setting traps, so I've been thinking about how to use it in active confrontation these days." I tried it just now, and it was not bad. Let's call it an Ember Storm. ”

"It's really powerful, and the most powerful thing is that it's hard to detect beforehand. By the time I found it, I was already in a sea of fire. Willik patted his chest and said, if Alan hadn't disarmed his ability in advance just now, he wouldn't have been so simple as licking his hair to the fire waves.

With Allen's current strength, the coverage of the Ember Storm is an area within ten meters in diameter with him as its origin. This is his first real large-scale killing move, and if he wants to run into those wolf knights before, Allen will be able to impress them.

This range can be extended if the source force is further improved. Therefore, although Resurrection cannot be promoted, it can be tempered by guò source power to increase its power in disguise.

As soon as the training was over, there was applause on the playground. Kirgeth clapped his palms, then snapped his finger at Alan and said, "It's quite energetic, yes, I just have a job for you." ”

Alan gathered his fangs and walked over to Cogess. The major said in a deep voice: "What is the extent of your injuries?" ”

"Basically, it doesn't affect the battle."

"Okay, I need a few of you to participate in a mission to dig out the sword demon tribe that may be lurking near the base." Kirgeth shook his fist and made a close-in gesture.

Alan's eyes lit up: "Willing to serve." ”

"Okay, follow me. We are already working with two other bases to carry out this operation, and the three bases will work together to cover a vast area of 500 kilometers between the bases. The search area of each team is different, I put you and the two sergeants of Mode and Ye Feng in a group, is there a problem? ”

"Of course not."

The two drifted apart.

In the afternoon, Alan and the others left the base. This mission is special, and in order to facilitate their movements, the base is allocated a single magic energy float. The shape of the float is similar to that of a jet ski, but it is much smaller. Powered by Rubik's Cube energy, two sled-like floors create an anti-gravity field that allows the float to travel over most terrain.

What's more, it is very quiet, reducing the chance of being spotted by the Blade Demon and increasing the mobility of the search team, which is the most useful tool of this operation. The pontoon is easy to handle, and once you get used to it, even a big guy like Bloy can easily drive.

The six-man search party left the base and proceeded in the area designated by Corgeth. The float can reach a top speed of 100 kilometers per hour, and due to its size and power, it is not the fastest vehicle for land travel. However, it has a turbo engine mounted on its tail, which doubles its speed when needed, enough to get rid of any tracker.

Six pontoons spread out across the wasteland in the shape of arrows, the first time they drove this vehicle, causing Willik to scream with excitement from time to time. It wasn't until fifty or sixty kilometers away from the base that he quieted down to avoid being too loud and ruining the mission.

The first day of searching ended in vain, and several people spent the night looking for a leeward place in the wasteland. Building a bonfire in a circle has a unique taste. Alan had struck a dangerous species of the Underworld Star nearby, which looked like a wolf but had two heads, and was much smaller than a wild-horned wolf. The two-headed wolf is very lean, but the legs are muscular, and after the hair is removed, the slices are roasted on the fire, and the meat smells fragrant in a few moments.

Willik swallowed his saliva and reached out to catch the evenly roasted wolf meat, but Alan slapped the back of his knife on his hand to block it.

"Don't be in a hurry." Alan shook his head, took out a small iron bottle from his backpack, poured some powder from it and sprinkled it on the roast: "This is the cumin powder I stole from the kitchen, and I knew it would come in handy." ”

The cumin powder fell to the wolf meat, and then roasted it to the fire, which immediately made everyone swallow their saliva when they smelled it. Alan picked up a piece with a dagger and placed it in a stone shard in front of Lucy. Seeing the strange appearance of everyone's index fingers moving but desperately holding back, he smiled and said, "You can eat it now." ”

Suddenly, everyone rushed to grab it, and Mod took a bite of the wolf meat, only to feel that the meat was full of fragrance. And the wolf leg muscle fiber is rich and chewy. He sighed, "We didn't know that Sergeant Allen's barbecue skills were as fast as his knife skills. ”

Alan himself took a piece and chewed it carefully: "When I used to live in the wild, I could only use this method to cook and eat. At that time, there were no such seasonings as cumin powder, and at most you could only scrape some salt powder from some stones to adjust the taste, and the taste was far worse than that. ”

Hearing this, Ye Feng was stunned and said, "Aren't you from the Beth Kede family?" ”

Coming to the Netherworld Star for nearly half a year, Allen's identity has long been no secret. It was not surprising that Ye Feng would know, Alan shook his head and said, "I lived on the surface until I was 10 years old. ”

Although there are only a few words, everyone can hear that life is definitely not easy.

Bloy then said, "Before I caught Babylon, I also lived in the wild. It's just living with the clansmen, life is hard, but there are also a lot of joys. ”

"You will have the opportunity to be reunited with your wife and children, and when the time comes, you can take them to Babylon." Alan said.

Bloy was overjoyed at first, then sighed, "If only we could bring everyone to Babylon." ”

Willik patted him on the shoulder and said, "Big man, it's impossible. ”

"It really can't be, as long as the resources are always in the hands of the Federation and the nobility, life on the surface will not be improved." Ye Feng said suddenly.

Alan gave him a strange look.

Mod said: "Sergeant Ye was born on the surface of the earth, and he once joined the surface garrison, and because of his excellent appearance, he was recommended to the Sirius Defense Regiment before he had the opportunity to come to the Underworld. ”

He added: "Actually, it is difficult to blame the Federation, and if the Federal Government does not do this, what qualifications does the Federal Government have to fight in the outer lands." If all the resources are distributed equally, we will not be able to fight a high-level war at all. At the end of the day, our planet is too poor. ”

Lucy's ears moved, and she nodded, "My old man often said this, but he also said that human genes are very similar to those of the Adahua, so you also have amazing potential. It's just that your race is still too young for the entire universe to take time for you to develop. If you say it, in about three thousand years, the star field where you are located will gradually prosper. ”

Everyone smiled bitterly, this highness said it easily, but who knows what it will look like in three thousand years?

"It's not early, let's rest, we have to be busy tomorrow." Alan ate the wolf meat clean, clapped his hands, and took a thermostatic sleeping bag from the pontoon.

A few people spent the night in sleeping bags.

Early the next morning, Alan and the others continued to advance 20 kilometers before entering the Ironwood Hills. It is named after the dead ironwood trees that grow here. As soon as the pontoon drove up a low slope, and as far as the eye could see, it was a dense ironwood forest, and Allen's communicator rang. Kirgeth's voice appeared on the communicator: "Report where you are now. ”

"Just arrived at the Ironwood Hills." Alan said, and then reported a set of coordinates to the navigator on the pontoon.

"Very well, there is a small supply team near you that has lost contact, and I need you to go over and investigate." After giving Alan a set of coordinates, Ke Ges said, "Be careful, it is possible that the Sword Demon Tribe is active. Remember, don't act rashly when you find out, it's your job to bring the news back. ”

"Yes, sir."

Ending the communication, Alan gestured for everyone to come back: "There's work to do." ”

Arriving at the coordinates specified by Cojes, a transport truck overturned on its side with some blood stains and two rifles scattered nearby, but no body was found. The supplies on the truck were still there, and Lucy retrieved the work notes from the cab, which was going to drive to another supply base, Eldraine, before heading to a checkpoint at the front of the battle line. Unfortunately, it stopped here.

"Look over here." Ye Feng waved on the other side of the truck.

Alan stepped forward, and Ye Feng was squatting on the ground. There are some clear paw prints on the ground, stretching towards the depths of the Ironwood Hills. Ye Feng raised his head: "What do you think?" ”

"It's the paw prints of the horned wolf, and it's not lightweight, otherwise it wouldn't have left such a clear mark." Alan Dao.

Mod, who heard this, nodded and said, "It must be the Wolf Knight." ”

"If it's a wolf knight, then does it mean that there are tribes in the Temu Hills?" Ye Feng frowned.

The Ironwood Hill is not small, it is located on the southwest side of the Blood Eagle base, about two hundred kilometers away from the base. The area of the hill itself is five or six hundred square kilometers, not to mention a thousand-level tribe in this area, even two or three are more than enough.

"Let's go along and see." Alan said.

After placing the pontoon in a hidden place and carrying out the necessary camouflage. The six of them sneaked on foot, chasing the trails left by the wolf knight. Obviously, the wolf rider did not have the habit of cleaning up the aftermath and left a lot of traces. Sometimes it's blood, sometimes it's a piece of the horn of the iron tree, and the most obvious is the claw prints of the horned wolf, which are like arrows, guiding the search party in the direction of their progress.

In the evening, when the search party had penetrated sixty or seventy kilometers into the hills, the light of the fire was seen in the distance. Alan glanced at the others, and the six of them dispersed, selecting from different directions towards the firelight. Alan walked alone, fangs in hand, and scurried forward like a leopard. After only ten meters of advancement, a terrible cry sounded from the front. He took a deep breath and pressed the thought of rushing forward, approaching at a constant pace.

A moment later, he saw a camp.

A huge camp on which a large number of iron trees had been torn down and tents, flagpoles, wooden fences, stoves, and campfire railings had been erected on the leveled ground. The camp was too wide for Alan to see. I only saw that there were sword demon warriors around the camp, and from time to time there were wild wolf knights passing by the edge of the camp like ghosts. Alan quickly glanced towards the camp, and there were three different patterns among the dozen or so tribal flags as far as his eye could see.

In this camp, at least three tribes have gathered! R1058
