“I wonder where they are now…”at night, after Isabelle finished dealing with some of the miscellaneous matters in the city management, she finally had time to worry about Pu Yunchuan and the others’schedule. …
She looked up at the night sky, and it seemed that it was almost dawn…
These days, dealing with food distribution, regional reconstruction, labor distribution, scientific research decisions, and many other important matters, Isabelle really felt that it was quite taxing on her own…
It was said that the developer’s bloodline could strengthen the brain, and the processing ability would also evolve by several times. In fact, Isabelle had some intentions, but as a warrior-born general of the empire, it made her give up her bravery and focus on internal affairs in the future. She was also a little unwilling…
That was why she had not chosen her new gene… …
After thinking about it, she decided to wait for Pu Yunchuan to come back and decide based on the situation… …
By now, she was almost at the periphery of the black stone forest… …
Isabelle looked out of the window, a trace of worry rising in her heart. However, she also knew that although there was some risk, the current situation could not be delayed… …
Yesterday, she received a video released by the main base. It was about the expedition of the cabbage faction. As she thought, her ancestor would not give up such a good place like the northern plains…
What made her even more afraid was the strength displayed by Alice’s faction in the expedition video…
That group of expeditionary troops were obviously high-level orcs, and they were well-equipped, which made her a little envious… …
She had fought on the battlefield, and her eyes were sharp. From the video, she was keenly aware that the quality of those cold weapons was definitely far beyond the standard of the Imperial Armory’s ordinary military uniforms. The armors of those Tauren were probably only comparable to the armors forged by the imperial dwarven craftsmen for high-level generals… … Perhaps not even…
The runic equipment on those high-ranking orcs at the back made her even more alarmed. Elemental weapons… … Those things were usually only owned by the tribal chiefs, right?
Obviously, in the progress of civilization, the other party was too far ahead. If she wanted to not fall behind, she had to quickly make use of her geographical advantage!
She did not know which route Alice would take. If she took the black stone forest route, her life would not be easy. In this world, the only thing she was afraid of… Was the ancestor who had trained her… …
After thinking for a while, she decided not to sleep. She would go to the laboratory to look for Su Changyun and the others at dawn to discuss how to increase the strength of the army as soon as possible… …
..
On the other side, Pu Yunchuan followed Old Wesker and the others to the outskirts of the black stone forest. As the sky was already dark, it was too risky to enter the forest at night. Wesker told the others to stay away from the forest and set up camp…
At night, in such a wild place and so close to the mutated place, it was naturally necessary to leave someone to keep watch. Therefore, it was stipulated that two people in each tent had to take turns to keep watch at night…
Pu Yunchuan was assigned to the same tent as Jack. After discussing it at night, Pu Yunchuan decided to keep watch at midnight. After all, if he kept watch at midnight, he would be woken up halfway through his sleep. It was a f * cking scene where he had to continue on his journey after staying up until midnight…
Thinking about it, it was still worth it to stay up until midnight…
Pu Yunchuan was once a little prince who stayed up late. He originally thought that with his experience of staying up late, staying up for half a night was nothing. However, when he really stayed up, he realized that it was really difficult to stay up without a phone and computer… …
However, he was still alright. It was just that he was bored. The other soldiers around him were much more miserable. They were all frozen into a ball!
As this place was not far from the black stone forest, Wesker was afraid of alerting some unknown things in the forest. Hence, he forbade the soldiers to start a fire at night. Without a fire to warm themselves, it was winter… Even the mutated soldiers were still shivering from the cold. Pu Yunchuan’s night vision ability allowed him to see clearly. Many of the soldiers’faces had turned purple from the cold…
At the front of the many tents, old Wesker was standing guard at the front, following the soldiers to watch the night. Many of the soldiers were secretly moved when they saw this scene. Being the first soldier was also the reason why old Wesker’s prestige was so high…
However, when Pu Yunchuan saw this scene, his thoughts were completely different from the other soldiers. Instead, it was: it seemed that this old fellow also knew that it was more cost-effective to watch the night…
Just as he was thinking, Pu Yunchuan’s expression suddenly changed and he took a few steps forward…
“Where are you going?”
The voice calling out to him was from Wesker. Wesker was not far from Pu Yunchuan. When he saw that Pu Yunchuan was acting strangely, he asked curiously…
“Over there… there seems to be something…”Pu Yunchuan pointed forward and said.
Wesker was stunned for a moment when he heard that. He looked ahead in puzzlement. The area in front of him was completely empty with no obstacles at all. This was also the reason why Wesker chose this place to set up camp, at this moment, he looked in the direction that Pu Yunchuan had pointed, but he did not see anything. Hence, he frowned and asked, “Where is the thing that you said?”
“In that forest… it seems to be staring at us…”Pu Yunchuan said faintly.
The moment these words were said, the bodies of the surrounding soldiers clearly trembled. For the other party to suddenly say such words in the middle of the night, it was indeed quite frightening, hence, they all stared blankly at PU Yunchuan and said, “Brother, are you serious? What is it?”
Wesker frowned as he looked at the forest that Pu Yunchuan had mentioned. Although these people were facing the black stone forest, they were actually very far away from the stone forest. Moreover, there was a thick layer of fog surrounding the stone forest, even with his strength as a gold knight, his eyesight could not see so far. This fellow actually said that he could see what was inside the stone forest?
“Ha…”
Just as everyone was surrounding Pu Yunchuan and about to ask more questions, a sharp sneer suddenly caught everyone’s attention. Pu Yunchuan heard the sound and looked over. He saw a young man wearing a full set of silver armor…
Most of the soldiers in the base were refugees. Although there were quite a number of soldiers in the Forest of Gondor, they were actually very short of equipment. It was rare for a young man to have a full set of armor like this young man. Most of them were only given the treatment of a general…
“Young man, if you want to show off, you have to find a reliable reason, right? You, who hasn’t even reached the combat aura level of an apprentice, told me that you can see a thousand yards away at such a late hour. Are you trying to make me laugh?”
Pu Yunchuan looked at this person and immediately frowned. He knew this person. His name was Mirren… Dylan saz. He heard from Jack that he came from a traditional military family. He was extremely talented and had reached silver-rank at the age of 24. He was highly regarded by Wesker.
However, from the moment he joined the team, he realized that this guy seemed to be very hostile towards him. He did not know why…
The many soldiers only reacted when they heard this. For a moment, they looked at Pu Yunchuan with disdain. They thought to themselves, “So he is a sensationalist…”.
Pu Yunchuan did not know how to refute. After all, the other party was right. His combat aura was indeed inferior to that of an apprentice. Before he joined the team, Wesker had given him a combat aura test… After the results were obtained, he was often looked down upon by some regular knights. …
“There is indeed something…”Pu Yunchuan could only continue to emphasize the fact that he had seen it. …
Looking at the pale and weak stubbornness on Mirren’s face, the mocking smile on his face intensified, and he could not help but feel even more disdainful in his heart. How could such a person be worthy of Lord Isabelle’s attention? How could someone actually believe such a ridiculous rumor. What a bunch of ignorant soldiers… …
In his heart, even if the pearl of the Empire like Isabelle wanted to choose a man, she should choose someone as outstanding as him…
“Okay…”just when Pu Yunchuan was about to say something, Wesker, who had been silent all this time, said, “It’s almost time for the shift change, Go and rest…”
These words were obviously meant for Pu Yunchuan…
Pu Yunchuan choked for a moment and looked into the forest. The thing just now seemed to have disappeared again. Then, he sighed and walked towards his tent.
“Sir, according to military law, if you lie about military information, even if the situation is not serious, you will at least receive fifteen lashes…”mi lun said faintly.
Pu Yunchuan stopped in his tracks when he heard that. Anger rose in his heart. He sneered and said, “Do you want to apply for you to enforce the law again?”
“If you have such a need, I can also satisfy you…”mi lun said coldly, “But I hit you harder. Whether you can get up or not is another matter…”
“Is that so? I really want to see it. Come, come, come…”Pu Yunchuan rolled up his sleeves in anger and made up his mind. As long as he dared to whip him, he would smash his head into pieces… …
“Enough!”Wesker shouted and said with a gloomy face, “My words are useless, aren’t they?”
“Er… I didn’t mean that…”Mirren saw old Wesker get angry and hurriedly took a step back and bowed.
Pu Yunchuan directly ignored the two of them and walked straight into his tent…
Old Wesker was stunned when he saw this. Mirren’s face darkened, and just as he wanted to stop him, he was stopped by Wesker.
Then, Wesker ordered everyone to disperse. After the crowd dispersed and everyone returned to their places, Mirren walked to Wesker’s side, he complained softly, “Sir, this guy really thinks he’s a big shot. Why Don’t you take a look at yourself…”
“Alright, put away your petty thoughts.”Wesker rolled his eyes at him and said, “It’s better to complete a task beautifully than anything else. That Sir won’t miss your hard work…”
Hearing this, Mirren’s face turned red as if he was a little girl whose worries had been seen through. He stuttered and could not speak…
Old Wesker did not pay attention to the other party. Instead, he looked at the position that Pu Yunchuan had just pointed at and narrowed his eyes slightly. Although he did not really like Pu Yunchuan, who was obviously here to gain experience,. This time, he inexplicably wanted to stand on Pu Yunchuan’s side…
Because even though he did not see it, he could vaguely feel that within the layers of fog, there seemed to be something secretly spying on them… …
