Gao Wu: Starting from Awakening the Bloodline of the Demon King
Chapter 167 Rejection
The senior soldiers who rushed to the outermost periphery did not fight to the point of death when their energy was exhausted.
In fact, after the second-level battle line of the eighth-level soldiers was established, they no longer just fought to the death with the giant beasts.
Because their mission has been completed and the team has stabilized its position, they turn to cooperate with the second-tier front line, and the seriously injured senior soldiers will retreat in time.
If you want to win a battle, you don't have to rush forward and fight with the enemy until the last moment. It is impossible to defeat a strong enemy with only bloody courage. Courage must be combined with scientific and reasonable tactics to maximize combat power.
After a fierce battle, the giant beasts failed to break through the position, but suffered heavy casualties.
Even though they were mentally ill and extremely ferocious, they were not without fear after all. When their casualties were close to half, and several times that of the soldiers, the giant beasts finally could no longer hold on, and could no longer block the firepower of the soldiers. Then they all retreated.
But even when retreating, the giant beasts did not leave in a swarm. Although they were fast, they did not appear panicked, and a certain organization still existed.
Of course, Su An was not the only one who noticed the characteristics of the giant beasts. In fact, most of the soldiers had realized that there might be extraordinary beings standing behind these giant beasts.
There is a high probability that he is a demon monk.
Therefore, when the behemoth retreated, the commander did not order a pursuit.
Just when the giant beasts retreated several hundred meters and Su An thought the battle was over, there was suddenly a dense sound of gunshots and grenade explosions about 800 meters away from where the giant beasts were escaping!
"Someone blocked the retreating giant beast?" Su An immediately thought of this possibility.
There is no doubt that the giant beasts are the active party in tonight's battle. They took the initiative to attack and retreat. In the dangerous and mysterious forest of giant trees, the team did not dare to pursue rashly, so they could have been stable. Retreating.
But now, they seem to have switched from hunters to prey.
The mantis catches the cicada and the oriole is behind.
Su An looked like the commander not far ahead, wanting to see what the other party would do.
What is certain is that there are not only extraordinary beings from the Monster Clan, Yan Kingdom, and Zhongshan Kingdom in this ruins, but also Bohai Kingdom, the church, rebels, and other camps that may take action against the Monster Clan.
In this situation, someone must have taken advantage of the situation and launched an attack on the giant beasts when their combat power was greatly reduced and their minds were in chaos.
The commander's arrangement was very simple. While he ordered the team to remain on alert and be ready to continue fighting at any time, he sent several senior soldiers to quietly run forward to investigate the situation.
Su An agreed with the commander's approach. If it were him, there would be no more arrangements at this moment.
Not long after, Fang Ming and others who went to investigate returned with information one after another.
As expected by most people, someone did attack the giant beast in front. In addition, a group of demon monks were stolen from the back together with the giant beast, causing many casualties.
The ones who attacked them were Bohai Kingdom's extraordinary beings. There were nearly 300 people in the team, while there were only a few dozen demon monks. Therefore, the Bohai Kingdom's extraordinary beings had the upper hand.
Fang Ming had already met up with the people from the Bohai Kingdom. The other party invited the team to follow them. The two sides attacked from the front and back, encircling and annihilating these giant beasts and demon monks.
After consulting some people, the team commander rejected the invitation from the Bohai Extraordinary.
The soldiers had just fought a bloody battle with the giant beast. Although they won the victory due to their quick reactions, clever tactics and heroic fighting, there were not many casualties, but many of the soldiers consumed a lot of force.
The team does still have the strength to fight, but it is meaningless to use its strength to attack a group of giant beasts that have already failed. Once an unexpected situation occurs in the battle, the team will not have the ability to cope with it.
Su An breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the commander's order for the team to rest on the spot. He was afraid that these people would rush forward when their minds got hot. After all, the soldiers had just fought bravely.
About half an hour later, the fighting in front gradually weakened until it stopped completely.
Because the team did not participate in the battle, the giant beasts and demon cultivators were not surrounded. They successfully escaped after paying a certain price, and the extraordinary beings from the Bohai Kingdom also did not chase them out.
Ten minutes later, a group of extraordinary beings from the Bohai Kingdom came to the team's camp. They proposed that the two sides join forces and explore the ruins together.
"In this battle for the ruins, the demon clan has the upper hand and is powerful. They know many secrets of the secret realm and are more dangerous than outside. The fact that they can drive giant beasts to fight is proof.
"The human camp should unite with each other to advance and retreat together, so that it can compete with the demon clan for many treasures. If they fight on their own, the result is likely to be defeated by each other."
The speaker was a tenth-level soldier with a handsome face and a tall figure. He was smiling and polite when he spoke, making him feel very approachable.
He didn't mention the fact that everyone just refused to help, causing the giant beast and the demon cultivator to escape.
Su An looked over from the branch nearby, heard the other person's self-introduction, and remembered the other person's name: He Chengfeng.
I have to admit that He Chengfeng’s reasons are very good.
Su An had received an official announcement before setting off. The human side of this operation was an alliance, and the extraordinary beings from the Yan Kingdom could cooperate with people from the Bohai and Zhongshan Kingdoms.
In their team, there are both extraordinary people from the Yan Kingdom and soldiers from the Zhongshan Kingdom. Now if they join forces with the people from the Bohai Kingdom, they will form the Three Kingdoms Alliance.
The person who talked to He Chengfeng was Zhu Feng. To Su An's surprise, Zhu Feng declined He Chengfeng's proposal. His words were very polite, but his meaning was very clear. He just wanted to act on his own.
He Chengfeng tried again and again to persuade Zhu Feng, but the latter was resolute, and in the end he could only leave with regret:
"Then I can only wish you good luck. If we meet in front of the ruins and treasures, I hope Captain Zhu can restrain his men. I can also guarantee that my people will never take the initiative to shoot at you."
Watching He Chengfeng leave, Zheng Nanzhi approached Su An and asked in a low voice: "Do you know why Captain Zhu rejected He Chengfeng?"
She was a little confused and didn't quite understand Zhu Feng's behavior.
Su An thought for a while: "When facing the demon clan, the teams of the three countries are naturally in the same camp. Of course they can work together, but what if they face relics and treasures?"
Zheng Nanzhi suddenly realized: "Everyone is here for the treasure. If you are facing a rich treasure, it is inevitable that others will not have dissatisfaction.
"If the treasure is easy to distribute, that's all. If it's not easy to distribute, maybe the two sides will become red-eyed or even fight each other."
After saying that, she turned her head and stared at Su An lovingly, her eyes full of admiration, and said like a daughter: "You are so awesome, there is no problem that can stop you."
It is difficult for extraordinary people within a country to be of the same mind. Fighting is inevitable, such as Su An and Xu Rong, let alone teams from different countries? Money attracts people's hearts, but often the reason why people are not tempted is because the value of the money is not great enough.
Su An turned around and took a deep look at Zheng Nanzhi: "Zong Zheng, your acting skills are not very good."
Zheng Nanzhi blinked his beautiful innocent eyes and expressed that he didn't understand what Su An was talking about.
Su An was too lazy to say anything and returned to his previous position to meditate and adjust his breathing to regain his original strength.
What we just said is not difficult, and given Zheng Nanzhi’s status and ability, it is impossible to imagine it.
But she pretended not to understand anything when she asked Su An, and showed admiration after Su An gave the answer. She wanted to give Su An a chance to show herself, and also to give herself a chance to express her gratitude. Su An was amazed by the opportunity.
Many men do this, but not Su An.
He was even disdainful.
In the second half of the night, the team remained vigilant and even strengthened their sentries, but no further accidents occurred.
At dawn, Su An's force power was completely restored, and she felt that her cultivation had improved further.
Although it didn't take long to enter the ruins, there were fierce battles every day. The force continued to be polished and the potential was further stimulated. Su An felt that he was not that far away from level six.
The team did not move out all morning. Some soldiers' injuries have not healed yet and will take half a day to recover.
At noon, after a brief meal of dry food, the team set off again.
Because of what happened last night, the team did not speed up and continued on the road at the same pace as yesterday. Until dark, the team did not encounter any problems and did not find anything valuable.
However, as they go deeper into the ruins, each soldier can feel through clues that they are getting closer and closer to the treasure.
At nightfall, the team camped again to rest, without any thoughts of traveling at night.
On the third day, the team officially entered the "main city" of the ruins. The giant trees were thicker and taller, the undulating mountains were more majestic, and the "residences" and "cave houses" of the ancient monster monks were becoming more and more spacious, and the objects inside were more and more spacious. It increased in number and left traces of something being taken away.
Zhu Feng was leading the exploration ahead. That afternoon, he brought back good news from the front.
"500 meters away, there is an inconspicuous hill, covered with thorns and bushes. I had no intention of exploring it in depth, but by some strange coincidence I went in, and I made a major discovery!"
Zhu Feng looked quite excited, "Guess what? Inside the hill are a series of connected caves, caves that have never been entered by monsters!
"The various ancient objects inside are so rich that it's simply dizzying. I just took a look at it twice, and then I picked up a good thing!"
Under the gaze of Su An and others, Zhu Feng took out a long knife that looked very ordinary in both shape and appearance, and injected the force into the rune array on the blade:
"Look!"
The Force array lit up one after another, and the blade immediately exuded a breathtaking and dangerous aura.
There is no doubt that this Force knife is well preserved and still usable.
"It's just a level five long sword. What's so special about it?"
Fang Ming didn't take it seriously. Intermediate soldiers might think this sword was magical, but he could see clearly that it was just a fifth-level sword.
Zhu Feng pointed at the sword at Fang Ming's waist and motioned for him to pull it out. Then he shouted low and slashed with the sword: "Watch it!"
Fang Ming raised his sword and collided with the long sword in Zhu Feng's hand.
A jaw-dropping scene appeared. It was also a level [-] force weapon. The sword in Fang Ming's hand was like rubber, and it was broken into two pieces by the sword in Zhu Feng's hand!
"Is this knife so sharp?"
"Not only is it sharp? It's also unique!"
In fact, after the second-level battle line of the eighth-level soldiers was established, they no longer just fought to the death with the giant beasts.
Because their mission has been completed and the team has stabilized its position, they turn to cooperate with the second-tier front line, and the seriously injured senior soldiers will retreat in time.
