Chapter 616: Internal Troubles (2)

"These are just my unilateral speculations, and in the absence of actual evidence, it is better for everyone not to leak it out." Alan thought for a moment and said, "But I do have an idea, but it's not something we need to worry about now, and I'll talk about it later." ”

He looked at Rhys and said, "In principle, we are acting independently, but don't hesitate to ask us for help if you need to." ”

Rhys laughed: "I won't do those things that slap a swollen face and become fat, don't worry." As for the news, I will let you know if there is the latest information. ”

After setting up several secret codes so that they could communicate with each other while in the field, Rhys and the two took their leave. Alan stretched and said, "Everyone is tired today, let's get news early." Tomorrow there is work to do, and only by raising the spirit can you earn the military merits of the Federation. ”

As the night deepened, the lights at the Kaiyan base grew brighter. In particular, the two high-power searchlights in front of the gate of the base are constantly sweeping the thick lampposts and monitoring the front of the base. Night is the true beginning of a day at Froststar, and in the vast darkness of the night, the planet's indigenous life will be busy. The less intelligent ones only haunt and forage like wild beasts, while the higher intelligent beings like the headhunters are always secretly planning to regain lost territory from the invaders.

Of course, not all headhunters are hostile to humans or Adahuas. Their IQ is not low, and it is precisely because of their intelligence that they can be co-opted and bought. Whether it is the Federation or Idahuaxing, they all have their own set of soft policies towards the natives of the planet. If it is not necessary, it will not exterminate life on the planet.

A pointless war is not beneficial for either side, so as long as the intelligent life on the planet learns to compromise. After the initial phase of repression, the relationship between the invaders and the indigenous people tends to develop in a symbiotic and mutually beneficial direction, which is also in line with the strategic purpose of maximizing profits. Only those who are extremely life-hating in the Yotun Domain would use pure violence to conquer a planet.

There is a holly forest near the Kaiyan base, and there are many headhunters in this forest. The natives of these planets sometimes drove wild beasts to attack the base at night, and there were many such cases during the period when the base was first built. Therefore, even if it has been built so far, every base director does not dare to take it lightly. Frosty nights are long, and they are also dangerous.

For Holly Forest, the night is like the day of the earth, the beginning of the day. If someone haunts the forest at night, they will find traces of life everywhere, and there are some dangerous things in it.

On a hillside where you can see the base of Kaiyan, there is a rare clearing. The clearings are overgrown with Grim Reaper grass, which, at night, glows from the inside of the rhizome and attracts creatures in the darkness of the night. The Reaper Grass is one of the rarer hardy vegetation species in Frost Star, and it is able to convert the frost and snow covering the surface into water and store it in the zĂ i rhizome, so it has also become a natural water reservoir for some organisms.

Creatures attracted by the fluorescent light emitted by the Reaper Grass dig out their rhizomes and absorb the transformed fresh water inside for their survival. But while you ask for it, some unlucky guys will be entangled in the Death Grass. The Reaper Grass will entangle its prey like a snake, and when it is wrapped around a lot of Reaper, the prey will often be strangled in the grass, and the corpse will become the nourishment of the earth.

Asking and giving, giving and receiving, forever and so on.

Now it's time for the Grim Reaper to hunt, and a little bit of yellow fluorescent light rises, staining the top of the clearing into a sea of light. Unfortunately, tonight's hunt was not destined to go well, and before the prey was attracted to arrive, a dark starship quietly appeared in the sky above the meadow. The dark gold lines on both sides of the starship were glowing, and the starship finally landed on the grass.

The Grim Reaper grass beneath the metal creations clung to the earth, and they could strangle the beast, but they couldn't do anything about it for a big creature like a starship.

After landing, the lifting deck was lowered and several people came out of it. The first person was Catherine, followed by one of her lieutenants. The adjutant hurriedly followed behind the general and said, "Major General, it is better for us to land on the surface base." We don't have much supplies and fuel for ourselves. ”

"Long-winded." Catherine said without looking back: "After using up the above information, I will find another base to replenish, I will not starve you to death." ”

The adjutant said embarrassedly: "It's okay to replenish it, but it's very dangerous to stay in the wild casually, this is not the earth after all." ”

"Dangerous?" Catherine turned her head, her eyes sparkling: "Which side do you think is more dangerous, me or the natives of the planet here?" ”

"What a coward, what qualifies to stay with me like this!" She jumped off the lift deck and stepped directly on the grass.

The Grim Reaper felt the breath of life and began to move. Catherine snorted, and the scorpion gun somehow came to her hand. After a spin in her hand, it thrust heavily into the ground. At the moment when the scorpion spear plunged into the grass, the adjutant screamed as if he heard something. Then, with Catherine as the center, a large area of Death Grass withered and died, forming a death area several meters in diameter in an instant.

Outside of the Dead Land, the other Grim Reaper Grasses were desperately trying to restrain those dim fluorescent lights like creatures, completely turning themselves into ordinary plants. Catherine said indifferently: "Now you can set up camp." ”

The adjutant was helpless, and whistled into the hatch, and a group of soldiers rushed down. They were skilled in the division of labor, a few of them were responsible for setting up camp, and several were on guard. Two other female soldiers began to cook and prepare dinner for Catherine.

Catherine herself walked to the end of the hill, and at her feet a handful of Death Grass wriggled restlessly. Catherine stepped on it, and it couldn't be quieter any more. She had just looked up into the distance, and in the night, the lights of the Kaiyan base flickered in her eyes. She said a silent word to the boundless night, her lips twitching, "Wait for me." ”

Allen, who was in the dormitory of the Kaiyan base, felt a chill for no reason. This was not the first time he had felt this sensation, and he quickly got up from his bed and looked out the window, but could not see much more in the darkness.

It's seven o'clock on Earth, but it's still night for Frost Star. But the sky was already a little white, and the sky in the east was a white light that stretched into a band, but it would take five or six hours for this white light to stain the sky. Eren had woken up on time, and after washing up, he put on the blade armor and walked out of the room with the blood in his hand. The others also got ready and gathered in the hall.

Reina had already left first, and Alan had no idea about this independent brother, so he led the others to the base's restaurant. There was already a corner in the dining room for these free-hunting powerhouses to eat, and when Alan walked in with the team, he could clearly feel the eager gaze of the soldiers in the restaurant.

Many people looked at the heavy knife with a rough shape and a red body behind Allen. When he looked at Allen again, the soldiers, especially the veterans, already had something more in their eyes. Allen's body is on the slender side, but such a person uses a domineering and rude weapon like Blood Concealment. If it is not used for the scene, it has the strength above the appearance.

And such a person is often difficult to measure his strength by rank and appearance. The soldiers had already heard more or less that Eren and his party had broken through the Jotun alien blockade yesterday and had worked together to take out a Dark Titan. Those who have experienced those battles and were able to return to the base were either extremely lucky or powerful, and naturally no one questioned their strength.

In the dining area, Rhys and his men arrived early to greet the rest of the family. This guy is really good at sociability, he has only known each other for two days, but he already seems to have known people for a long time, and even Alan can't help but admire his social skills.

"Hi bro. You're late. Rhys saw Alan and stood up to say hello, but drew everyone's attention to the dining area.

Alan and Reina's performance yesterday was dazzling, even though the Dark Titan was ultimately killed by Reina. But if Alan hadn't broken through the giant's defenses for him before, it would have been difficult for Reina alone. At that time, Eren slashed with a knife, and the Dark Titan was still deeply remembered by everyone present. In particular, those who have fought against the Dark Titan have experienced first-hand the defensive power of the giant's metamorphosis.

Eren seems to have easily slashed open the giant's chest, but in fact it is not that simple. And that knife also illustrates some problems from the side, that is, Allen already has the strength to hit a strong man at the level of a major general. What is interesting is that he is only level nineteen in the official information of the Federation!

Therefore, when looking at Allen's gaze, most people's eyes are friendly. After all, it is always reassuring to have such a strong person by his side, but there are also some hostile eyes, and some even swim in the vital parts of Allen's body. Alan immediately had a feeling, his hands were holding the blood, and his eyes narrowed slightly. His eyes condensed into swords and looked at the hostile gazes, and suddenly the heads of those people screamed in pain as if they had been stabbed into the heads by a steel needle.

Then he shot up and glared at Allen.

Alan sneered, let go of the blood hidden, looked at them coldly with his hands behind his back and said, "If you want to find trouble, you can change the time and place, as for here, I advise you to eat quietly." ”

Behind him, a dark shadow emerged. Wearing volcanic armor, Reina squeezed Alan out of the way, found a random table and sat down, gently placing the piercing hammer at his feet, but crushing the concrete floor to a third of the ground. He said as if to himself: "Before you want to find trouble with Beskode, you should weigh your own pounds and talk about it." ”
