Monarch of Evernight: One hundred and forty-seven full military exploits
bsp;Li Tianquan’s face sank and he shouted: “Why are you so panicked!”
The female secretary who came in was a little scared, but still said: "Master Jing Zhan just returned to the base, seriously injured and unconscious."
Li Tianquan was shocked and stood up and said: "How could it be possible? He brought out a whole company of elite soldiers! What did they do?"
"All of Master Jing Zhan's soldiers were wiped out, and General Hong was seriously injured before he was able to send him back."
"Where are they? Take me there and see!" Li Tianquan said anxiously.
"Elder, there is another news..." The female secretary seemed a little hesitant.
"Hurry up and say it!" Li Tianquan shouted impatiently.
"The news we just got is that something happened to our troops transporting supplies to the Song clan, and only half of them escaped."
"What?" Li Tianquan was so surprised that he grabbed the female secretary's hand and said, "Isn't that army led by Li Ke? Where are the others? Let him come to see me!"
"According to people who came back, Master Li Ke died in battle."
Li Tianquan suddenly felt his eyes go dark and his body swayed. When he stretched out his hand to hold the edge of the table, he calmed down and said, "Death in battle?"
"Yes, the people who came back said that they saw Mr. Li Ke beheaded by the enemy with his own eyes."
Li Tianquan's face turned pale again, and there was even a taste of blood in his mouth.
Li Ke is a rare backbone of the Li family. He is brave and strategic, and he is a general who can stand alone. If he hadn't come from a side branch, he would have been able to reach a higher position long ago. More importantly, Li Ke is an important combat force of Li Tianquan, and his loss is really a heavy loss.
Li Tianquan tried his best to calm down and asked: "With Li Ke's skills, how could he be killed by the enemy? Who is the enemy and how many people are there?"
The female secretary whispered: "There were only a dozen people on the other side. They rushed towards the Chinese army and succeeded with one blow. The leader was a demon count. It was he who shot the master to seriously wound him and then beheaded him. , the demon-born Earl calls himself Aiden. Abyss of Darkness."
"Demon Earl, Aiden" Li Tianquan silently recited this name, feeling very familiar. He suddenly remembered that Qianye had said that day that he had been fighting with a demon count for more than half a month. What was that count's name?
Li Tianquan tried hard to remember, but couldn't remember anything, and he became more and more irritable. At that time, he didn't believe that Qianye could hold back a demon count from a famous family, and he didn't believe that the reason why the dark army didn't cross the border in that defense zone was because of Qianye's battle with the demon count.
Thinking that Li Ke was dead but half of his men had escaped, he was even more angry. Senhan said: "Send the order, all those who escaped will be taken down, and they will be punished for escaping from the battle and trapping the master to death." , execute them all!”
As soon as this order came out, even the female clerk was startled. She didn't care that she might be reprimanded in her own capacity for admonishing. She hurriedly said: "Elder, do you want to wait for an investigation before convicting this person?"
She said it tactfully, but Li Tianquan immediately realized it. Executing hundreds of family soldiers in one go, even those who escaped from the battlefield, was a huge deal. Even though Li Tianquan, as the second elder, did not have this right. This matter must at least be approved by the elders or the head of the family.
This is the truth, but having nowhere to express his anger made the unknown fire in Li Tianquan's heart burn even more intensely. This fire turned to Qianye: "Little beast, you must have let the demon come here, otherwise How could Li Ke die tragically?"
However, these thoughts can only exist in his heart. Li Tianquan took a deep breath, regained his dignity as an elder, and said: "Where are the people who escaped back now? Take me there. In addition, tell all the information about the demon descendant Send all the information to my office, don’t miss anything!”
Li Tianquan left in a hurry, causing quite a stir in the base. Since the beginning of the war, the Li family has never suffered such heavy losses. In one day, they lost one of their generals and hundreds of private troops. Although those mercenary hunters died, the Li family also had to pay a large amount of compensation. Otherwise, who would work for the Li family in the future?
The more severe the losses, the heavier Li Tianquan’s hatred towards Qianye became. Although he also understood that this was just to vent his anger, he still couldn't control himself. However, Li Tianquan didn't know that his thinking direction this time was rare for the right one.
The losses were just the beginning. Bad news came almost every day. Some of the weaker troops were directly maimed or even wiped out. Strong teams were also attacked from time to time. More than half of the loss records are related to one name, Aiden.
At this point, people truly understood how terrifying the famous demon-born Earl was, especially in the misty forest, where his existence was almost unexplainable.
As the top person in charge of the base, Li Tianquan held several meetings in a row to analyze battle reports and study ways to deal with Aiden. The information about Aiden is gradually improving. However, the more they analyze it, the more people feel that it is possible to solve this demon unless a strong person of level 15, 16 or even higher is mobilized.
However, in the misty forest, simply increasing the level of Force cultivation cannot extend the perception in proportion, unless there is a special talent for perception. According to known intelligence, Aiden's field of vision exceeds four hundred meters, which is a desperate number.
The meeting inevitably reached a deadlock. Is it possible to invite a **** general to join the war in order to solve a dark count? This is definitely not a good idea. If the empire puts a **** general in the misty forest, the Duke of Darkness will appear in the Evernight side. War will escalate when neither side is ready.
While the Li family base was in a state of panic, Qianye completed another hunt.
Unlike Aiden, few of the dark troops who encountered Qianye slipped through the net. He specially selected a team of about a hundred people to attack, quietly adding nutrients to himself and the purple matrix.
It has been nearly half a month since this battle, and the Anduya space is full. If all the military merit certificates are added together, it is about enough to replace a standard second-class merit, which is equivalent to hunting a powerful earl.
It’s time to go back, Qianye thought. He silently smoked the last cigarette in stock, flicked the cigarette **** onto the werewolf corpse at his feet, and retreated towards the base.
In the Realm of Eternal Night, outside Black Current City, a group of trucks is approaching from a distance. There were only five heavy-duty trucks carrying goods in this convoy, but there were more than 20 military vehicles escorting them. The officers guarding the city gate had long seen the hidden fire mark of the convoy, but they still strictly followed the inspection procedures.
It happened that the guarding officer was familiar with a captain in the **** force. He couldn't help but pointed at the truck and asked: "What is so important that a regiment should be used to **** it?"
The captain spread his hands, lowered his voice, and said: "Keep your voice down! It was sent from Werewolf City. I don't know what's in the car. No one is allowed to carry the goods. What's inside , it is said that apart from those in Wolf City, only Duan Tou knows."
The guard officer was suddenly shocked: "Boss Duan is also in the convoy?"
"Of course! The boss personally takes charge of the battle, do you understand?"
Duan Hao was an old man brought over by Song Zining from Ningyuan Heavy Industry. He was considered a direct lineage, and he also received sufficient resource supply and vigorous training from Song Zining.
Duan Hao also benefited a lot from the **** battles. He broke through several bottlenecks in life and death, and successfully broke through the generals before the battle. He also became the number one master under Dark Fire since Qianye and Song Zining. Although Duan Hao is limited by his talent, he may only be able to achieve level 11 or level 1 in this life, but the actual combat power of such a general who came from a regular battlefield is far above the level of the Force.
This time the convoy was actually escorted by Duan Hao himself, which shows how seriously they take it.
The officer guarding the gate did not dare to ask any more questions and waved to let him go after completing the procedures. The convoy only stayed in the city for a short time before heading to the airship landing field outside the city. After a while, a high-speed airship took off and quickly flew away.
In the guard tower, a lieutenant put down his telescope, looked at the aerospace craft disappearing into the sky, thoughtfully, and then wrote something down on a piece of paper and kept it close to his body.
Soon it was night, and it was time for the lieutenant to rest. He handed over the post and did not return to the barracks. Instead, he walked towards the busy business district. In the dark fire, it is not uncommon for low-level officers like him to be alone. When they are not on duty, most people are not willing to stay alone in the camp and will look for some fun.
He hesitated, walked into a tavern, sat down in the corner, ordered a bottle of wine, and drank slowly.
After a while, a seductive woman sat across from him, looked at the wine brand, and said, "Won't you buy me a drink? I like this kind of wine."
The lieutenant let out a breath and held the woman's hand. The woman frowned and took her hand back calmly. With this inadvertent movement, she already had an extra piece of folded paper in her hand. After a while, the two people seemed to have failed to agree on the price, and finally broke up on bad terms.
The woman stayed in the tavern for a while, but then left as if she was bored. She carefully paid attention to her surroundings, walked into a small hotel not far away, went up to a suite on the second floor, and handed the note to a man in his early thirties.
The man has a clean face and a rather elegant temperament, which is quite incompatible with the noisy, lively, rude but vibrant Yongye Continent.
He opened the note under the lamp and read every word on it carefully.
At this time, the woman did not dare to disturb him and sat next to him doing nothing. There was a constant roar of machinery outside the window, and the smell of rust and moist steam filled the air. Even if you close the windows, you can't completely block out this disgusting smell. The woman frowned and wrinkled her nose slightly, showing an unhappy look.
The man finally read the note, looked at the woman, and said, "There's nothing I can do about it. Now that I'm here, I have to endure this."
"Can't we change places? This place is too close to the power tower." The woman complained.
The power tower of Blackstream City uses black stone as fuel. It is a product that has been completely eliminated in the empire more than a hundred years ago. It has shortcomings such as noise, perpetually leaking steam, and low energy conversion efficiency. Can fill a whole sheet of paper.
But it also has the advantage that it is not picky, and even the worst quality black stone can make it move. In addition, it is durable. For example, this big thing that is less than a hundred meters away from the small hotel has long passed its use period. However, it is still running and looks like it can be used for a long time. It just needs repairs from time to time.
This power tower is now responsible for supplying power to the old city. The new power tower that Song Zining bought with his own money is naturally placed in the dark fire. Its power only supplies the camp and city defense facilities.
A ghetto naturally formed around the old power tower. The low-level civilians in Blackstream City and the low-level mercenary hunters don't care much about the environment, and only here can they find affordable food and lodging. In fact, most of the human center cities in the third and fourth level defense zones of Yongye are at the level of the Black Current Power Tower. This is the real life in the abandoned land.
The man burned the note, thought for a moment, and said: "This is the second batch of similar cargo convoys this month. Wolf City"
