"You all should know the history of Andalus, so I won't go into it. Just talking about the cracks in the barrier in the Endless Canyon, they appeared about a thousand years after the barrier was laid out." Reptanton tapped his index finger. He knocked on the table and made a rhythmic sound: "I don't know the specific situation. I only know that almost no dark creatures could escape through the cracks at the beginning. According to the situation at that time, even if a dark creature could appear in one or two years, It’s a high frequency, and they are still seriously injured and on the verge of death.”
"However, as time went by, the situation slowly changed. More and more dark creatures crawled out of the endless canyon. From the first two years, one gradually developed into one every few days, and then one day. Dozens of them. Although we outsiders cannot know the specific reason, it seems that there is nothing wrong with the barrier..."
Shen Yun also heard similar content from Yu Qianqian. At that time, he had a doubt in his mind: "Since the barrier was arranged with the help of angels, then if there was such a big problem with the barrier later, they would have nothing to do." Does it mean?"
"Yes!" Reptanton nodded, with a strange expression on his face: "Although all parties wanted to solve the problem themselves at first, as the problem gradually expanded, they finally found the angel. At that time, it was said that the angel It was very straightforward and directly sent down more than a hundred strong men to help. But what I didn't expect was that almost the same number of fallen angels appeared in the dark creatures... What the hell, not only was the barrier not repaired in that battle, , but because the battle between the two sides has expanded a bit! From then on, the angels did not dare to take action casually, and could only occasionally send people down to help eliminate the dark creatures that penetrated deep into the mainland."
After a pause, a dumbfounded expression suddenly appeared on Reptanton's face: "It was also because of that time that the armies of all forces had to abandon the fortifications and fortresses originally arranged on the edge of the canyon in order to avoid the angels' battlefield. .And when the angels on both sides retreated, all forces found that those areas had been occupied by a large number of dark creatures. After a unsuccessful struggle, Andalus has since lost the best position to fight against the dark creatures."
After listening to Reptanton's words, Shen Yun also felt that it was very strange. Although angels and fallen angels were incompatible with each other in the epic, and they were rivals when they met, but based on the past history, Shen Yun always felt that there was something a little bit weird in some aspects. Disharmonious.
After thinking for a long time without understanding, Shen Yun shook his head and put the thought aside for the time being, and continued to ask: "What is the current situation?"
Hearing this question, Reptanton was silent for a while, then frowned and slowly said: "Actually, even though we were lucky in the past, with the cooperation of all the forces, the defensive front was not difficult. The real trouble. It started a year ago..."
A year ago... Shen Yun and Sean looked at each other and felt that all the troubles seemed to have started a year ago.
Reptanton behind the table did not notice the strange expressions of the three people below him. He was already lost in his own thoughts.
"Since about a year ago, the frequency of dark creatures began to increase significantly, which put great pressure on the defense lines of all forces. Of course, with the support of the entire Andalus, we were finally able to persevere. But since a new species of dark creatures appeared in the camp two months ago that had never been seen before, the entire battle situation has been completely different. Although they are only close to the 11th level in strength, their number is close to a thousand. And since then If we don't disperse our operations, ordinary soldiers can't resist them at all. Although we also have a standing squad of high-level warriors here, the number is too different from theirs. If we want to increase the number, we must transfer the commanders of those squadrons..."
Reptanton punched the table hard, obviously disgusted with those "new species". He snorted coldly and said: "I have reported the information about that kind of monster to the imperial capital. Let's take a look at the military." What can the Ministry do? Before that, I also ordered the army to retreat a certain distance and try to avoid large-scale battles with them. Hey, I know there are people in the imperial capital who say that I am afraid of fighting. They know how to do it! Now the empire’s military strength is extremely tight, how can we still have so many soldiers for us to consume!”
"New species..." Chen Yun frowned, and suddenly thought of the skinny monkey, and couldn't help but ask: "Does it look a bit like a human, with a magic crystal on its forehead..."
"How do you know?" Reptanton looked at Shen Yun in surprise, then slapped his forehead and said suddenly: "I remember, you were members of the last Jihad! Yes, those monsters should have met you. The one of the same type."
As the empire's frontline marshal, Reptanton naturally knew about the accident that happened in Licai City last year. At this moment, he remembered that Shen Yun and the two were also present, and he immediately felt relieved.
After receiving Reptanton's confirmation, Shen Yun also sighed secretly. At first, he only had time to completely smash the corpse, but he asked Aden to take the head of the thin monkey back. Now it seems that they have succeeded in their research.
In this way, Shen Yun understood. He had fought against Slender Monkeys many times at that time, and he knew the abilities of this dark creature very well. If there were nearly a thousand "Skinny Monkeys" on the opposite side, with their strength close to the 11th level As well as the weird "Shadow Transformation", let alone those ordinary troops with only single-digit strong men, even the same number of strong men of the same level may not be their opponents. However, if this is the case, it seems that the opponent There is no need to dwell here...
After hearing Chen Yun express his doubts, Reptanton also rubbed his eyebrows with some annoyance: "My worry is also here. It stands to reason that with such strength, not to mention annihilating us completely, but to take advantage of the victory to attack A few games were normal. But in fact, since I exited the original area, there has been no movement from these dark creatures. To be honest, I am worried about whether they will make any big moves, but the current situation makes me realize Don’t dare to act rashly…”
"What about other forces? How do they deal with these new varieties?" Shen Yun asked.
"Them? They're nothing to deal with!" I don't know if he had been depressed for a long time, but Reptanton opened his mouth and said a curse word: "I have contacted other frontline commanders, and they all said that they have never seen such dark creatures. It has appeared on our own position... We Blue Water really hit the jackpot! Huh, I have thought about it anyway. If it doesn't work, let other forces recruit strong people to form a coalition and concentrate their firepower to kill these bastards first. Say it again!”
Chen Yun was also a little speechless. His romantic partner also organized all the "skinny monkeys" into sharp knives, and Lan Shui happened to be on the edge of this sharp knives?
While Shen Yun was deep in thought, Reptanton suddenly said: "By the way, in two days I will arrange for you to go to the front line to fight two contact battles, so that you can become familiar with the battles on the front line. Wait for you to deal with those dark creatures. After understanding this, I will send the personal guards to perform a mission, and then you two...oh, and that Catwoman, you three will go with you!"
"Yes!" When talking about the mission, Shen Yun and the others did not dare to neglect, and quickly stood up and touched their chests to promise.
Two days later, under the leadership of Laurent, Shen Yun and the others arrived at the forefront of the battlefield. This was not the first time for Shen Yun and the others to come here. Although this area was an area that was not allowed to enter except in combat order, Shen Yun and the others As a personal guard of the marshal, he sometimes has the responsibility of supervising battles, so naturally he is no stranger to this place.
The four of them walked to a trench. At this time, a small team was building fortifications here. A rough man was sweating profusely and waving a shovel while shouting something with the soldiers around him. He seemed to be the leader.
Laurent walked up to the big man and coughed lightly. Seeing that the big man didn't respond, he had no choice but to reach out and pat him on the shoulder. The big man looked back and was shocked. He threw the shovel aside and stroked his chest. A military salute said: "Aruba has met Captain Laurent!"
Laurent nodded. He took out a warrant from his arms and handed it to the strong man. He said sternly: "Captain Aruba, by order of the Marshal, starting today, the Marshal's personal guards Shen Yun, Sean, and Vierra will draw the order." Returned to the 17th Squadron of the 9th Squadron of the 3rd Battalion of the Empire's 2nd Legion for a period of three days! During these three days, the captain of the Aruba Squadron must treat the three of them as new recruits, and no preferential treatment will be given upon completion of the mission!"
"Yes!" Aruba took the order scroll and subconsciously returned the salute. He turned to look at Shen Yun and others. The moment he saw Shen Yun, the name in the order scroll and the face in front of him instantly overlapped, making Aruba He cried out in shock: "Benefactor!"
"Huh?" Sean and others from Laurent looked at Aruba inexplicably. Even the soldiers who were digging trenches were attracted by his voice.
Shen Yun was also surprised at this time. The first time he saw the strong man, he felt that he looked vaguely familiar, but he really couldn't remember where he had seen this man. Now that he heard the other person say "benefactor", Shen Yun finally thought Get up, isn't this the man who wanted to ask his boss for a "Nine Dragons Capture the Phoenix" on the first day he entered Blue Water City to go back and honor his mother? I remember that he said that he would go to the front line to avenge his brother, and he still So I gave him a handful of Dolan's people. I didn't expect to meet him here today. It seems that he has become the squad leader.
Shen Yun now knows a lot about various affairs in the army. He knows that the captains of the Blue Water Army are basically warriors who have reached level 9 strength. If a warrior like Aruba who is not good at personal strength wants to To be promoted to squad leader, one must either have exceptional commanding ability or have made some great achievements. Apart from these two, no matter how brave he is in fighting, he can still be promoted to deputy squad leader if he dies.
Shen Yun was also a little happy to meet an acquaintance on the front line. He smiled and said, "Aruba, long time no see! Judging from your appearance now, you must have avenged your brother!"
"Aruba doesn't know if it counts as revenge. In short, as long as those black guys are still here, Aruba will be a warrior here for a day!" Aruba grinned, touched his head and laughed innocently. Then he looked at Shen Yun eagerly and said: "Benefactor, Aruba has always kept the sword you gave to Aruba. Many times Aruba and his brothers were about to die, but this sword saved them. !”
As soon as these words came out, the eyes of the soldiers surrounding them became eager. They only knew that their captain had a sword that was given by a benefactor and was said to be able to "bring back the dead". This sword had indeed saved many seriously injured members of the team.
brother. But what they didn’t know was that the “benefactor” in the captain’s mouth was actually the young man in front of them who looked less than 20 years old! (To be continued...)
