Chapter 239 Departure(1/3)
Returning to the Zhenwu Division, Su Yu ordered Ma Zai to summon the hundreds of households under his command.
Half an hour passed, and nine of his subordinates came to Su Yu's study.
"grown ups."
Nine people said in unison.
"Um."
Su Yu looked around and then said: "According to Master Wei's instructions, in the Soul-Destroying Monster Forest in Kaiyang City, there is a sixth-order red-bellied brocade python wreaking havoc and causing trouble."
"Master Wei personally led the team to hunt."
"I, Mr. Liang, and others will accompany you to assist."
Hearing Su Yu's words, everyone's hearts could not help but sink.
Missions such as this to hunt high-level monsters are extremely dangerous, and it is almost unheard of to say that participating in such missions will not lead to death in the line of duty.
After Wei Lianyi brought his people back some time ago, the news about the red-bellied brocade python spread a lot in Zhenwu Division.
At that time, they were still rejoicing that they were following Mr. Su and did not have to participate in this hunting mission.
But they never expected that this task would now fall on them.
Now they can only hope that they will not be selected by Su Yu.
After all, the Zhenwu Division definitely needs to maintain normal operations, so naturally not all of them will be involved in this task.
Wu Ling's pretty face was full of worry.
How could my cousin let Su Yu participate in such a dangerous mission?
He is just a warrior in the copper-skin realm, so he should let the other two thousand households choose someone, right?
If Su Yu makes a mistake
She decided to stay later and discuss with Su Yu alone whether she should go talk to her cousin and remove Su Yu, or whether she should take part in this task on Su Yu's behalf.
Su Yu continued: "I and Mr. Liang each need to dispatch three hundred households and their lieutenants to assist."
"This mission is very dangerous, so I will naturally select those with the highest cultivation level among you to participate."
"Hong Heng, Yu Tianhe, and Sha Benziliang, you three have the highest cultivation level, so you three will lead your lieutenants to participate in this hunting mission with me."
When several other people heard this, they couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, and their hearts that were hanging in their throats reset again.
When Hong Heng and the other three heard this, they all couldn't help but smile bitterly.
At this point, the three of them had no choice but to bite the bullet.
"Master Wei said that for this mission, a crossbow will be prepared on hand. This will greatly help us reduce the dangers faced by our personnel."
"As for the other people who stay behind in Zhenwu Division, just do the job at hand."
Su Yu said: "Hong Heng, you three call the people below to get ready and set off tomorrow morning."
"Okay, there's nothing else to do. Let's go back."
"yes!"
Everyone clasped their fists and bowed, then turned and left, except Wu Ling who stayed.
"Su Yu, this mission of hunting the red-bellied brocade python is really too dangerous."
Wu Ling's pretty face was full of worry and she said: "I'm really worried about you, a bronze-skinned warrior, participating in this mission."
"How about I go talk to my cousin and ask her to replace you?"
When Su Yu heard this, he shook his head and said with a smile: "Ling'er, you also know what your cousin's temper is like."
"What would she think if you went to her to open the back door?"
"In her eyes, as a Qianhu, I naturally have to shoulder the responsibilities of a Qianhu, and I am not being treated specially because of my personal cultivation level."
"If she really does this, how can she convince others in front of her subordinates in the future?"
"Besides, as Lord Qianhu, I am mainly responsible for sending troops and generals and issuing specific instructions."
"The person responsible for the main attack must be Mr. Wei. We are just responsible for supporting the attack from the side. Nothing will happen."
"But."
Wu Ling's pretty face was still filled with worry as he said: "As a bronze-skinned warrior, you will almost certainly die if you are attacked by the red-bellied brocade python."
"Since you don't want your cousin to open the back door for you, then let's do this. I will also participate in this task. With me by your side, I can still protect you."
Listening to Wu Ling's caring words, Su Yu's heart felt warm.
He laughed and said: "Ling'er, this task requires sleeping in the open air. The people participating in this task are all men. It is really inconvenient for you, a woman."
Wu Ling said dissatisfied: "Isn't my cousin also a woman?"
"This is different."
Su Yu smiled bitterly and said: "As your cousin is the main force in this mission, if she does not participate in this mission, then we will have no chance to kill the red-bellied brocade python."
"Think about it, if you participate in this mission, how big of an impact can you play?"
"You only have the Iron Bone realm, so you won't be able to help much in hunting this red-bellied brocade python."
"Any captain holding a crossbow can provide greater assistance than you."
"And I am your husband. Taking you with me on a mission will inevitably make the people below gossip."
"Just stay in Tai'an City and wait for my return."
"Don't worry, I will protect myself."
"I just married such a beautiful daughter-in-law, how could I bear to lose my life?"
Hearing Su Yu's words, Wu Ling's pretty face couldn't help but blush, and said, "Okay, but you must pay attention to safety and don't act recklessly."
"clear."
Su Yu nodded and said with a smile.
He has already killed Soul Palace realm warriors, so naturally he won't worry about making a mistake at the hands of a sixth-level monster.
The only thing that worried him was that when he was hunting the King of Hell in Tiankui City, Wei Lianyi was attacked by two mysterious Hidden Dragon Realm warriors.
This time, will they take this opportunity to ambush in the Soul-Dead Forest again?
During the previous trip to Liangzhou, no assassins rushed to ambush Wei Lianyi. Su Yu speculated that this group of forces knew that there were two commanders assisting in the investigation.
They went to assassinate Wei Lianyi and almost threw themselves into a trap.
But this time is different, there is no soul palace level commander present, these guys behind the scenes will definitely be waiting for an opportunity to act again.
In other words, in this mission, in addition to hunting the target red-bellied python, you also have to beware of cold arrows suddenly shot from behind.
And this cold arrow shot secretly is obviously more dangerous than the red-bellied python.
"I just don't know what preparations those girls will make."
Su Yu's eyes flickered and he murmured in a low voice.
Since he had already been assassinated once before, it was impossible for Wei Lianyi not to take appropriate precautions.
Especially when the phoenix dance bracelet in her hand has been snatched away by him.
But this group of people in the dark didn't know that the phoenix bracelet was no longer in Wei Lianyi's hands.
In their understanding, the phoenix bracelet is still in Wei Lianyi's hands.
If they really know how to take action this time, they will definitely use more powerful forces to kill Wei Lianyi in one fell swoop.
And this was exactly what Su Yu didn't want to see.
Because he was also involved in this mission, he definitely didn't want Wei Lianyi to make any mistakes, causing His Majesty to blame him.
In other words, he had to protect Wei Lianyi in this mission.
"Well, if I had not participated in this mission, then of course I would not be responsible for her life or death."
"But since I participated in this mission, if anything happens to Wei Lianyi, I will be the one to take the blame."
Su Yu smiled bitterly.
I just wanted to wait for Wei Lianyi to come back to handle this task of the red-bellied brocade python.
But now it's fine. Even if we have to wait for Wei Lianyi to come back for this task, he and Liang Yuxuan are still involved.
"If these guys really show up, I will protect her once. After all, the phoenix dance bracelet was also snatched from her hands, so saving her life is nothing."
"Besides, it's not certain whether this guy in the dark will dare to assassinate him."
Su Yu murmured softly.
Although according to his speculation, this group of secret forces would most likely use this opportunity to assassinate Wei Lianyi.
But Wei Lianyi will definitely take corresponding precautions, and it is impossible for the last sneak attack to happen again.
After fishing until the sun went down, Su Yu found Wu Ling and walked toward his home together.
