Monarch of Evernight: Regret at six or seven
bsp;Li Kuanglan said helplessly: “Qianye, I told you to stay alive!”
“Over there.” Qianye pointed to the officer sitting against the wall.
The officer was dying and was a bit weaker than an ordinary soldier. However, when Li Kuanglan sensed it, he found that his body was almost exhausted, and his vitality was like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.
This state is very much like being caused by a vampire who has sucked all the essence and blood from his body, but there are no teeth marks of blood-sucking fangs on the officer’s neck.
Li Kuanglan frowned, thinking about the scene when he rushed into the cave and saw countless blood lines entering Qianye’s body, and felt a slight chill in his heart.
Li Kuanglan extended his finger to the officer’s heart, and a thin line of ice pierced into it. The officer let out a cry of pain, and then his energy became more and more vigorous, and an abnormal blush appeared on his face.
“Where are you from?”
The officer struggled and said: “We are the Wild Wolf Mercenary Group. This time we were recruited by the Chaocheng City Guards to fight. After the battle, we are responsible for cleaning the battlefield and handling the prisoners.”
Looking at the corpses hanging on the surrounding cave walls, one can imagine that the process of ‘disposal’ was definitely not as lighthearted as the officer said. Li Kuanglan didn’t know much about the Neutral Land, so he looked towards Qianye.
“They are scavengers.” Qianye’s words made Li Kuanglan understand the nature of these mercenaries.
This kind of mercenaries are cannon fodder. They participate in wars during peacetime and are responsible for cleaning up the battlefield after the war. Because of their low strength, they were not paid on weekdays, and all their gains depended on the trophies they obtained while cleaning the battlefield. In fact, after the war, the main spoils of war must have been taken away by the regular army, leaving very little for these cannon fodder mercenaries. So they won’t let go of even a little bit of oil and water, which is why most of the corpses outside are naked. For them, slightly intact armor is considered a good harvest.
This kind of mercenary is accustomed to torturing prisoners of war, partly to see if they can squeeze out more money and water, but mostly to kill for fun. They are like cannon fodder on the battlefield, and even their own people look down on them. So once there is an opportunity, the long-term oppression will turn into indescribable violence and be inflicted on the weaker ones.
No wonder Qianye was so angry. He used his killing move to wipe out this small mercenary group with a single strike of vitality.
At this time, the officer’s aura passed its peak and became weak. Li Kuanglan tapped his heart again and said, “Who are you fighting? How is the situation of the battle?”
“I heard they are from Nan Qingcheng, a newly established mercenary group and the city defense army there. They just defeated the Wolf King’s legion and suffered a lot of losses. They didn’t expect us to appear suddenly, so we didn’t How long does it take to defeat?”
Li Kuanglan asked the most critical question on behalf of Qianye: “Where is the general of Nan Qingcheng?”
“How can we know? We only heard that a big shot was captured and then escaped. We don’t know anything else.” The officer’s breath gradually weakened, his head tilted, and he stopped moving.
Li Kuanglan stood up and said, “It seems there are only so many.”
This officer was originally on the verge of death after being hit by Qianye’s vitality attack. He was able to say so many words after being stimulated to life by Li Kuanglan’s finger with the force. Now that his life was exhausted, he didn’t even have the last chance to survive.
Qianye asked: “Who will be caught? Who will run away?”
Li Kuanglan sighed: “You also know, why do you need to ask me? For all reasons, the one who escapes will be Ji Tianqing, and the one who will be caught will be Song Qi. Maybe neither of them was caught, and the so-called big shot has other people. People.”
Qianye took out a breath and said, “No, I have a feeling that it must be Zining who was arrested.”
Li Kuanglan said: “Don’t be anxious yet. If the other party can defeat Ji Tianqing and Song Zining, they must be someone like them. In your current state, I’m afraid it won’t be of any use if you pass.”
A cold light flashed in Qianye’s eyes, and he said calmly: “I may not be able to save Zining now, but no matter who the other party is, I will let him know that I am here. If he dares to do anything to Zining, Then sooner or later I will uproot his entire clan.”
Qianye didn’t gnash his teeth at this moment, nor did he get angry. He just told a fact calmly. Li Kuanglan looked at him with complicated eyes, and sighed: “Song Qi is very lucky to meet someone like you. Let’s go, let’s continue tracking. The opponent’s main force must be not far from here.”
Li Kuanglan turned around and left the cave, followed closely by Qianye. Then Li Kuanglan sent a signal to let the aerospace ship take off and stand by at high altitude, while he and Qianye followed on foot.
This floating ship is extremely valuable, but its defense is mediocre. Since the opponent had someone strong enough to capture Song Zining, Li Kuanglan was not willing to let the aeroplane take risks. In front of a strong man of this level, the floating ship is a living target.
At this time, an old man suddenly appeared behind Li Kuanglan and said, “Old slave, please accompany the young master for a walk.”
Li Kuanglan frowned and said, “This is my own battle. It has nothing to do with my family. No one is allowed to interfere!”
The old man “Master” wanted to persuade him again, but Li Kuanglan had already taken Qianye away. The old man could only sigh and fly towards the floating ship.
Li Kuanglan and Qianye are both good trackers, and Qianye is a master hunter in the wilderness. The two searched for it and soon found their target.
It was a valley with water. A temporary military camp had been built at the mouth of the valley, and about a thousand soldiers were stationed here.
Qianye and Li Kuanglan restrained their auras, and took advantage of the terrain to quietly get closer to observe.
Although it is a temporary military camp, it is also built in a very orderly manner. Various open and hidden sentries are arranged staggeredly, plus patrolling soldiers. There are almost no dead spots around the barracks. It is very difficult for even an experienced hunter to sneak in.
Although these soldiers have all removed the markings on their armor, looking at the style of their armor and equipment, they are clearly Tingchao City’s troops. These warriors all have deep auras and are well-equipped. Compared with them, both the Dark Fire and the Nan Qingcheng City Defense Force look like a mob. Even the Wolf King Legion is inferior.
The combat power of these more than a thousand troops is very strong, and it is more than enough to defeat the more than ten thousand defense troops of Nan Qingcheng on the frontal battlefield. Song Zining was leading a ragtag group, and when he was unexpectedly attacked, his defeat was expected. But who is it that makes Song Zining unable to escape?
Li Kuanglan observed silently for a while and said softly: “There are experts, so don’t act rashly.”
Qianye’s eyes were filled with blue waves as he scanned the entire military camp. Suddenly his whole body was shaken. In the center of the military camp, he saw a vague leaf, floating in the wind!
Qianye opened his true vision at this moment, and all he saw in his eyes was the flowing force. This leaf is not an entity at all, it is just formed by the Force. Normal people cannot see it at all. Only eyes like Qianye True Sight that can see the Force can see its existence.
This floating leaf is lifelike, seeming to float irregularly in the air, but the petiole always points faintly in the same direction.
Qianye looked in that direction and saw a flash of green light in the far distance. With his eyesight, he could barely see clearly that there was a leaf of the same force reverberating in the air.
At this point Qianye can confirm that this is the secret message left by Song Zining to guide the direction. It seems that Song Zining has indeed fallen into the hands of Tingchaocheng, while Ji Tianqing has disappeared.
Li Kuanglan pointed to a corner of the military camp and whispered: “There is a **** smell there. It seems to be a place where prisoners of war are being held. Do you want to go and take a look?”
Just as Qianye nodded, a gloomy aura suddenly rose in the military camp, and someone shouted: “Who is sneaking around there?”
Li Kuanglan and Qianye were both slightly shocked. Qianye had just discovered the mark that Song Zining secretly left. His mind was in turmoil and his aura was a little exposed. He didn’t expect that he would be discovered by someone. This person’s perception and agility are probably not inferior to Qianye’s.
A figure rose from the military camp and rushed towards Qianye and Li Kuanglan seemingly slowly but quickly. Seeing the face of the person clearly, Qianye was startled again. It was actually the old man who was hidden in the clouds that day.
The old man was startled when he saw Qianye, and then he sneered, with murderous intent in his eyes. It seems that he is still brooding about what happened that day.
Li Kuanglan pulled out the Hanyue Cage Sand and slashed the old man with a flash of water-blue sword light from bottom to top, then shouted to Qianye: “You go first!”
However, Qianye did not retreat. Instead, he stared at the old man and suddenly shouted: “Did you sneak attack Zining?”
The old man snorted, drew his sword to block Li Kuanglan’s sword light, and then said: “What a sneak attack? I used my troops openly and defeated the opponent, and then captured him alive on the battlefield. That little girl was slippery. Very soon, she will run away when she sees an opportunity, otherwise, I guess she won’t be able to escape from my grasp!”
Seeing the old man draw his sword, Li Kuanglan’s expression changed slightly. The sword in his hand suddenly became several times faster. The sword light zigzagged towards the old man, and he said urgently: “Qianye, hurry up!”
At this moment, Li Kuanglan, apart from not using Fu Lu’s fast sword, was already going all out. However, the black crystal sword in the old man’s hand made many sword shadows, blocking all the aqua blue sword light, but he still seemed to be able to do it with ease.
The clues can be seen from the brief confrontation. Just looking at the old man’s ease at this moment, it can be seen that Li Kuanglan is probably not his opponent, and Song Zining did not lose unjustly.
However, Qianye still did not move and shouted: “Where is Zining?”
The old man smiled sinisterly and said: “That little guy has been sent to the Wolf King.”
Qianye’s eyes were filled with murderous intent, and he gritted his teeth and said, “You are so brave!”
The old man snorted and muttered: “Hey! No one has dared to say that to me for many years. It seems that you have a good relationship with that little guy. Let’s do this. Kneel down now and tie your hands. For your sake How about saving me a lot of trouble and maybe letting the little guy go?”
Qianye took a deep breath and said: “Zi Ning won’t want to see me surrender, and the same goes for me. So let me tie my hands and don’t even think about it! Kuanglan, you go first!”
Li Kuanglan shouted: “Are you crazy?”
“I’m not crazy, I just want this old guy to know what regret means.”
The old man laughed and said, “Okay, I would like to know how you can make me regret it”
Before he finished speaking, the old man was suddenly startled.
Qianye’s figure flashed and he rushed straight into the military camp. Immediately, a flash of blood appeared within a hundred meters radius, and the area was immediately devoid of life.
The old man’s eyes were about to burst and he shouted: “How dare you!”
PS: Although it’s a little late, I finally finished it and solved one thing on my mind. Good night everyone.
