To be honest, Jiang Yue's demand for spiritual talismans was still huge after every battle. The key is that he often does not fight alone, team battles are common.
He may not be able to use these talismans all the time, but someone must.
Seeing his father's grabbing gesture, Jiang Yue hesitated.
"Why are you standing there? Too little?" Jiang Qiao asked with a smile.
"Dad, do you have enough for yourself? Don't let yourself be affected by pretending to be wealthy in front of your son." Jiang Yue asked teasingly.
Jiang Qiao rolled his eyes and said angrily: "You underestimate your father's strength, don't you? Maybe I don't have as many strange skills as you, but when it comes to spiritual talismans, your father recognizes that I am the strongest among the three brothers. Excellent. It is also very hopeful to surpass him."
oh?
Jiang Yue really didn't expect this.
In my memory, my father has always been a well-behaved, down-to-earth, and polite scholar-type official who worked in an agency.
I really didn't expect that he was actually a hidden master of talisman making.
The masters are among the people, so this is too hidden, right?
When the conversation came to this point, Jiang Yue naturally put it away without ceremony. Look at the look on Dad's face. If he doesn't accept it, he may be at risk of domestic violence.
The father and son had another pleasant exchange, during which the main content naturally revolved around their family.
Especially the elder sister and sister-in-law's family were asked repeatedly by Jiang Qiao, refusing to let go of even the smallest detail.
"Hey, I feel sorry for you two siblings. Your sister didn't go to college. This is all my fault as a father."
"Okay, even if my sister goes to college, she still can't finish it. Star City University has been closed down a long time ago." Jiang Yue didn't think it was a big regret not to go to college these days.
It’s the end of the world, why are you still worrying about whether to go to college or not?
Even if her sister Jiang Ying successfully entered college, she is still a student in school now, and it is still embarrassing to be unable to get into college.
Especially seeing the situation at Star City University, Jiang Yue didn't feel anything pity.
"It's just that your sister is in the military, and I don't know how much hardship she has to endure. This child has been sensible since she was a child, and I have wronged her." Jiang Qiao felt very guilty about his children.
"Just be at ease. My sister is going to the military, and she was personally invited by the military boss. My sister is also very successful in the military. According to me, this is more suitable for her than going to college. "
When it comes to training people, you can definitely get more training in the military.
Especially in this strange era, the cultural knowledge gained from going to college is not worth mentioning. The comfortable life in the ivory tower has made many people weak mentally and physically. When the strange times hit, the first batch died.
As for my sister-in-law and her family, they live quite safely in Panshiling. My sister-in-law and his wife have a certain ability to protect themselves, and they have even eliminated intruding enemies. Jiang Qiao also felt more relieved.
As the father and son chatted, it was already dawn.
Due to the large number of casualties last night, it is inevitable that the agent team will be reorganized. There are a lot of vacancies in this area, and people need to come and fill them.
There is no doubt that this brings new problems.
After the number of Weird Tree's agents is reduced, the remaining manpower's ability to cover such a large area will inevitably be weakened.
At this stage, it is either necessary to mobilize troops from more peripheral locations. But there are huge problems with the loyalty and ability of the more peripheral agents.
There are many agents in the core area, and the intensity of defense is exaggerated. Manpower can only be mobilized from the core area.
But there will inevitably be new problems in mobilizing manpower from the core area, that is, the defensive density in the core area will have to be sacrificed.
This is a matter of weighing the priorities.
The father and son also discussed this issue.
Jiang Yue felt that the Weird Tree would eventually dispatch agents from the core area, and it would never be possible to abandon such a large open area without anyone guarding it.
Since Jiang Qiao has many activities in the core area, he believes that the weird tree will not sacrifice the defense level of the core area.
Of course, no matter which choice the Weird Tree ultimately makes, it is not bad news for the human camp.
No matter which end of the defense is weakened, it will be a major benefit to their activities in this area.
By about nine o'clock in the morning, new news came.
The surviving agents will be reorganized from above. This reorganization will redistribute teams and rearrange defense areas.
There are six teams involved in the reorganization, and six second-level agents will be sent to take the lead.
The lists of six agents were also announced, and Brother Xia's name was among them.
As a second-level agent whose entire team was wiped out and who had a lucky escape, Brother Xia did not fall out of favor and was able to continue leading the team. This shows that this guy still has a strong ability to survive.
Even Jiang Yue had to admire this.
According to the original plan, the father and son were naturally going to join Xia Ge's reorganized team.
The defensive area that Brother Xia is responsible for is not this area, but a place closer to the core area. It is basically on the edge of the core area, or even the peripheral part of the core area.
In other words, Brother Xia’s territory has one foot outside the core area and one foot inside the core area.
There was nothing fancy about the reorganization, and Xia Ge's team was formed very smoothly.
Among the reorganized team members, several were selected from the core area, and some were survivors of various wars.
There are two more who have retreated from areas as far away as Yuncheng.
Of course, there are also peripheral agents who are newly recruited after investigation.
The composition of such a team is relatively complicated.
But overall, because Brother Xia is a second-level agent and his identity is there, he can control the scene more than enough.
Jiang Yue and his son showed their support for Brother Xia intentionally or unintentionally, and inadvertently showed some strength, making everyone realize that Brother Xia, a secondary agent, also has die-hard supporters.
Some people who have other ideas in mind, or even want to replace him, must weigh their own weight before considering these usurping the throne.
How many of the agents who have taken refuge in the Strange Tree have no ambition at all?
They all want to be on top.
The treatment of upper-level to second-level agents is completely different from that of ordinary agents, and their status is also very different.
Especially for a second-level agent like Brother Xia, who failed to lead the team and had a dark history. He himself is at a low point and his reputation is naturally problematic, so his prestige will undoubtedly be greatly reduced. The members would somewhat despise him, and those thoughts that would replace him would inevitably arise.
Brother Xia is a veteran, so of course he can feel this subtle atmosphere.
During the first team assembly after the reorganization, Brother Xia deliberately brought Jiang Yue and his son to his side, elevating their status to the position of deputy.
This is tantamount to telling everyone that although I am a mere commander, after I reorganize the team, I will still have my own die-hard followers.
You guys, it's best to cooperate and stop making unrealistic ideas.
It's not that Brother Xia is really that obsessed with officialdom, but that he knows the ecology of an agent. As long as you are slightly weaker, these tigers and wolves may peek into his position.
It's a small thing to peek in, but it's a big deal to accidentally lose your life.
There is not completely no strife among agents. Every day, some agents often die in mysterious circumstances. In the end, no reason can be found, and it can only be attributed to being attacked by human infiltrators.
In fact, with such a tight defense, how could there be so many human infiltrators?
Everyone knows that many times, agents do not die in the hands of humans, but also in the hands of their own people.
"Everyone, we didn't know each other well before, but from now on we are going to stir the pot. I don't need to emphasize the purpose of a team. It's always good for you and me and good for everyone. Once there is no unity within the team, Xiao With too many thoughts, the team can easily become a piece of scattered sand. And those teams that are like scattered sand often have the highest casualty rate in battle. "
Brother Xia started to lecture seriously.
Suddenly, an agent on the side said sullenly: "Team Xia, so your previous team was in disarray?"
The speaker was a guy about thirty years old, with fair skin and bangs that almost covered his eyes.
Judging from his cold tone and expression, you knew that this was definitely a thorn in his side, and he was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
Previous data showed that this person was a member selected from within the core area.
Agents from the core area, with the confidence and pride of the core area, do seem to be tougher than others.
A second-level agent like Lao Xia actually dared to openly challenge and even make fun of him.
Lao Xia Dandan glanced at the other party, but surprisingly he was not angry.
"Old Yang, there is no point in saying this. You were not involved in last night's situation, so don't make such nonsense. If you think you are better than Mr. Wu, then you can make sarcastic remarks all over the world."
The agent known as Lao Yang sneered and said: "Captain Xia, let's not use the banner as a tiger skin. Let's be honest. Our brothers will follow you, what benefits can you bring to us? What benefits does it bring? To say anything else is false. We have to see real things. If you want the brothers to support you, just saying nice words is definitely not enough. If you don’t say anything else these days, you will still drink less chicken soup. ? There are many people who are better at giving chicken soup than your Xia team."
"Yes, that makes sense. We want to hear something real."
"Team Xia, I heard that you have a very good relationship with an elder from the women's camp in Sunshine Times. If you can arrange a mother-in-law for all our brothers, you don't have to say anything and we will follow you to the end. ah."
】
"Hehe, you can have this. Mad, I heard that the life of the peripheral agents in various main veins and roots is much better than us. There are not as many rules as here. Especially girls, there are still some choices."
"Uh, Lao Gao and the others seem to have come from Yuncheng, right? Is there such a thing?"
There were indeed two awakened people who escaped from Yuncheng. They were the agents of Jiang Yue's previous heavy damage to the main line.
Cloud City's strongholds were continuously uprooted and destroyed, and they had no choice but to retreat to the main area of the Weird Tree.
The old man who was named said with a smile: "In the places below, the degree of freedom will indeed be higher, but there are also disadvantages. There are too many battles, and I am worried every day. No, when we were in Cloud City, we were Hui Liao rushed here."
Jiang Yue couldn't help but take another look at Lao Gao and the other agent beside him. Did they all escape from the Yuncheng position?
"Lao Gao, stop beating around the bush and tell the truth. Are there a lot of girls over there?"
"Yes, because Yuncheng is a big city in the Western Region. Our team penetrated deeply into Yuncheng. Many survivors in Yuncheng had a hard time. Sometimes, a pack of instant noodles or a piece of bread can be replaced by a hot girl. Throwing my arms around you.”
Lao Gao's words, many of the people he mentioned are full of blood and are ready to take action. I can't help but feel a little envious of the agents on the outside.
One of the agents even suggested: "Team Xia, why don't we just apply to the top to fight and go to a certain base? That would be the day of the gods."
"That's the truth. When I was at the headquarters, I thought it was a safe place and I could try to improve my strength. But now I find that the headquarters is not peaceful either! Hundreds of people can die in one night. God knows what will happen in the future? If it happens anyway Everyone has to take risks, and I would rather take risks where there are many girls."
The team is not all people who think with their lower bodies. An agent in his forties is relatively stable.
He said: "I don't agree with your opinion. The periphery is obviously being targeted by the human camp, and a battle may break out at any time. When it comes to safety, it must be the safety of the headquarters. What happened last night was purely an accident, a big explosion in the mine below. The casualties caused. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for a few lurkers to cause such a large amount of damage."
"Haha, Lao An, your wife and daughter are all at the headquarters and in the women's camp. You have a whole family, and you don't have to worry about having no women. Of course you understand our hunger."
These bastards laughed unbridledly as they spoke.
"Team Xia, do you think this is feasible?"
Several hungry guys in the team stared at Captain Xia, waiting for him to speak.
Team Xia smiled calmly: "The list is still being reviewed. If you don't want to join my team, you still have a chance to quit, and I also have a chance to choose someone else. Remember, you must not think that without you, I will This team cannot be built up. Without you, I, Xia, am still a second-level agent and a captain. Without me, some of you may be just stragglers, unorganized cannon fodder. I will give you Take a minute to think, and those who want to withdraw should go out and turn right to the review office to file a report."
Lao Xia has never been a good man and a believer in women. How could he allow these agents to provoke unscrupulously without respect for their superiors and inferiors?
He had never gotten angry before, he just wanted to see everyone's attitude and expose his face to these people.
The thorns that jump out are not scary, but the ones that secretly cause mischief are scary.
Jiang Yue also cheered at the right time: "You guys, if Brother Xia gives you face, you have to hold it back. It's shameless to give you face, that's an idiot. Our team really doesn't need idiots to hold us back!"
