Willik screamed, and just hugged his head and face, the ‘excited’ priming force protected him. "The Fire Wave" suddenly lowered and disappeared, and Allen also retracted the bone knife. Willick said: "This is your new ability?"
"Resurgence, a trap-type ability. It can be deployed in a certain area in advance, and it can be activated when the time limit is reached or guided by me." Allen put the bone knife on his shoulder and laughed: "Arrange the trap I’m not good at it, so these days I’m thinking about how to apply it to active “confrontation”. I just tried it and it’s not bad. This trick, let’s call it an ash storm."
"It's really powerful. The most powerful thing is that it is difficult to detect in advance. When I found it, I was already in the fire." Willick patted the'chest' and said, if it wasn't for Alan to release his ability earlier, now he is "Mao" sent to the fire, "Licked" by the waves is so simple.
With Allen's current strength, the coverage area of Ashstorm is based on him as the origin and the area within ten meters in diameter. This was his first large-scale killer move in the true sense. To meet those crazy wolf knights before, Alan’s custody can give them a deep impression.
If the source power is further improved, this range can be expanded. Therefore, although Reignition cannot advance, it can improve its power in disguise by tempering the source power.
As soon as the training was over here, there was applause on the side of the ‘playground’. Kejiesi patted his palms, and then moved his fingers towards Allen and said: "'Quite' energetic, yes, there is a job to be'handed' to you."
Allen put away his fangs and walked over to Kejies. The major said in a deep voice: "To what extent have your injuries recovered?"
"Basically does not affect the battle."
"Well, I need you guys to take part in a mission to dig out the Swordsman Tribe that may be lurking near the base." Kejiesi shook his fist and made a close gesture.
Allen's eyes lit up: "I am happy to help."
"Okay, come with me. We have carried out this operation jointly with the other two bases. With the cooperation of the three bases, the search range will cover a vast area of 500 kilometers between the bases. Each team has a search area The difference is that I put you in a group with Sergeant Mode and Ye Feng. Is there any problem?"
"Of course not."
The two moved further and further apart.
In the afternoon, Allen and others left the base. This mission is special. In order to facilitate their operations, the base is allocated a single-person magic float. The shape of the float is similar to that of a jet ski, but it is much smaller. Driven by Rubik's Cube energy, two sled-like bottom plates can generate an anti-gravity field, so that the float can drive on most terrain.
More importantly, it is very quiet, reduces the probability of being discovered by the sword demon, and improves the mobility of the search team. It is the most useful tool for this operation. The floater is easy to ‘operate’, and after a little familiarity, even a big guy like Bloy can easily drive it.
The six-person search team drove away from the base, and proceeded in accordance with the area designated by Kojies. The top speed of the floating vehicle can reach 100 kilometers per hour. Due to the consideration of size and power, it is not the fastest land travel tool. But it has an acceleration engine installed at its tail, which can double the speed when needed, enough to get rid of any trackers.
Six floating vehicles spread out across the wasteland in an arrow-like shape. For the first time driving this kind of ‘traffic’ tool, Willick screamed with excitement from time to time. It wasn't until fifty or sixty kilometers away from the base that he calmed down to avoid being too loud and disrupting the mission.
The search on the first day ended in vain. Several people searched for a place leeward in the wasteland and spent the night. A bonfire is formed in a circle, but it doesn't have a taste. Allen hit a dangerous species of Pluto star nearby, which looked like a wolf but had two heads longer, and was much smaller than a wild horned wolf. The two-headed wolf is very ‘fine’ and thin, but the ‘leg’s’ muscles are well developed. After removing the ‘hair’, slice it and roast it on the fire. It smells of ‘meat’ in a moment.
Willik couldn't help but swallowed his saliva, reaching out to catch the uniformly roasted wolf meat, but he slapped Alan with the back of a knife in his hand to block it.
"Don't be impatient." Allen shook his head, took out a small iron bottle from his rucksack, poured some powder from it and sprinkled it on the grilled'meat': "This is the cumin I stole from the kitchen. Fans know it can come in handy."
The cumin powder fell on the wolf’s meat, and it was grilled over the fire. It immediately made everyone swallow their mouths. Allen picked up a piece with a dagger, and placed it in front of Lucy with a stone piece. Seeing the weird appearance of everyone's index finger moving but desperately holding back, he laughed and said: "Now you can eat."
Suddenly everyone flew in, and Mode took a bite of the wolf’s meat, only to feel that the meat was fragrant. In addition, the wolves’ leg muscles are rich in fiber and chewy. He ate his mouth full of oil, and sighed: "We don't know, it turns out that Sergeant Allen's meat roasting technique can quickly match his knife skills."
Allen himself took a piece and chewed it carefully: "When I was living in the wild, I could only use this method to make food. At that time, there was no such seasoning as cumin powder. Scrape some salt powder on the stone to adjust the taste, the taste is far worse than this."
Ye Feng was startled after hearing this, and said: "Aren't you from the Beskard family?"
For nearly half a year after coming to Pluto, Alan’s identity has long been no secret. It's not surprising that Ye Feng would know. Allen shook his head and said, "I lived on the surface before I was 10 years old."
Although there are only a few words, everyone knows that life like that is definitely not easy.
Bloy said at this time: "I was also living in the wild before catching Babylon. But living with the tribe, life is hard, but there is also a lot of joy."
"You will have a chance to reunite with your wife and children. At that time, you can take them to Babylon." Allen said.
Bloy was overjoyed at first, and then sighed softly: "It would be great if we could get everyone to Babylon."
Willik patted him on the shoulder and said, "Big man, this is impossible."
"It is indeed impossible. As long as the resources are always in the hands of the Federation and the nobles, the life on the surface will not be improved." Ye Feng said suddenly.
Alan gave him a strange look.
Made said: "Sergeant Ye was born on the surface and joined the surface defense army. Because of his outstanding performance, he was recommended to the Sirius Defense Group before he had the opportunity to come to Pluto."
He said again: "In fact, it is also difficult to condemn the Federation. If the federal government does not do this, what qualifications does it have to fight in the outer domain. If the resources are evenly distributed, it will not be able to fight high-level wars. After all, Our earth is too poor."
'Lucy's ear moved, and she nodded and said: "My old man often said the same, but he also said that human genes are very similar to the Idahua people, so you also have amazing potential. It's just that your race is for the whole The universe is still too young, and it takes time for you to develop. If everything goes well, the star field you are in will gradually prosper in about three to several thousand years."
Everyone smiled bitterly, this highness said lightly, but who knows what it will be like three thousand years later?
"It's getting late, let's rest. I have to be busy tomorrow." Allen ate the wolf's meat cleanly, clapped his hands, and took a thermostatic sleeping bag from the float.
A few people just spent the night in their sleeping bags.
Early the next morning, Allen and the others continued to advance for 20 kilometers before entering the Ironwood Hills. Here grows ironwood trees like dead trees, hence the name. As soon as the floater drove up a low slope, looking at a dense ironwood forest, Allen's communicator rang. Kejiesi's voice appeared in the communicator: "Report where you are now."
"Just arrived at Ironwood Hills." Allen said, and then the navigator on the float reported a set of coordinates.
"Very well, there is a small supply team near you that has lost contact. I need you to investigate." Kejiesi gave Alan a set of coordinates and said: "Be careful, it may be the sword demon. The tribe is active. Remember, don’t act rashly after you find out, it’s your task to bring the news back."
"Yes, sir."
Ending the communication, Allen made a gesture to let everyone come back: "There is work to be done."
Arriving at the coordinates designated by Kojies, a transport truck rolled over to the ground. Some blood and two rifles were scattered nearby, but no bodies were found. The supplies on the truck were still there, and ‘Lucy’ hit the work record from the cab. The truck was going to another supply base, Aizhuo, before heading to a checkpoint in front of the battle line. Unfortunately, it stopped here.
"Look here." Ye Feng called out, beckoning on the other side of the truck.
Allen stepped forward, Ye Feng was squatting on the ground. There are some clear paw prints on the ground, extending towards the depths of the Ironwood Hills. Ye Feng looked up: "What do you think?"
"It's the paw print of a wild horned wolf, and the weight is not light, otherwise it won't leave such a clear mark." Allen said.
Made, who heard the words, nodded and said: "It must be a crazy wolf knight."
"If it's a crazy wolf knight, do you mean that there are tribes in the Ironwood 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 hill itself covers an area of five to six hundred square kilometers, not to mention a tribe with a thousand people, even two or three are more than enough.
"Follow up and have a look." Allen said.
Put the floating vehicle in a hidden place and perform the necessary camouflage. Six people sneaked on foot, chasing the traces left by the wolf knight and advancing. Obviously, the wolf rider has no habit of treating the aftermath, leaving many traces. Sometimes it was blood stains, sometimes it was a piece of clothing hooked by an iron tree, and the most obvious were the claw prints of the horned wolf. They were like arrows pointing the direction of the search team.
In the evening, when the search team penetrated sixty to seventy kilometers into the hills, they saw the fire from a distance. Allen glared at the others, and the six of them dispersed and began to select from different directions towards the fire. Allen walked alone, with fangs in his hand, and rushed forward like a leopard. After moving forward for ten meters, a stern cry rang out from the front. He took a deep breath, suppressed the thought of rushing forward, and approached at a constant speed.
After a while, he saw a camp.
A huge campsite. In this campsite, a large number of iron trees were torn down, and the shoveled ground erected tents, flagpoles, wooden fences, stoves and campfire fences. The camp was so wide that Allen couldn't come over. Only saw swordsman warriors around the camp, and from time to time, there are mad wolf knights passing by the edge of the camp like ghosts. Allen quickly glanced at the camp, and there were three different patterns in the dozen or so tribal flags that he could see.
At least three tribes gathered in this camp!
