With such doubts in his mind, Duan Qing also changed the direction of his investigation in the next few days. The relationship between keywords such as "god envoy" and "sacred mountain" and the beast tide also appeared in the gray robe. During the past few days, the magician frequently appeared within the scope of his inquiries. The front did not collapse as quickly as Duan Qing and other members of the Qingling Adventure Group imagined. The attack from the beast tide gradually restored stability and calm in the past few days. The caller sent to the western front The Lun troops were also constantly rotating and changing during this period: "Heather Army! It's up to you!"
"We are the best defensive team in the Hulun tribe! Let you see it again today!"
"Why didn't the Cangdong Army and the Kexi Army come? Are they watching a show in our formation?"
"They were responsible for the defense lines in the other two directions. One went to the north where the Libei Army was supposed to be responsible, and the other guarded the east..."
"It seems that the scale of the beast tide's attack is larger than we imagined."
After frowning and thinking for a while, Duan Qing, who returned to the camp from a day of investigation, took a deep breath: "If the battle on the third front is as fierce as the battle Hu Mobei is fighting now, then I We all have to admire the tenacity and strength of this tribe.”
"Unfortunately, this is not the case." Sitting in the corner of the camp with heavy steps and scars all over his body, Goldman's movement of wiping the shield seemed much slower at this time: "I have heard it from other people's mouths, There is no enemy like beast tide appearing on their side, what they should be guarding against is something else."
"Let me think about it, the eastern front should be to prevent other central tribes from taking advantage of the situation." Duan Qing wiped the dust from his face, panting and began to regain his strength: "As for those in the north... they are What are you guarding against? The pursuers of the Nashi tribe?"
"Compared with the current battles, the existence of the Nashi clan is like drizzle." Shaking his head, Gedmane replied in a heavy voice: "But according to the news I heard, the northern front It hasn’t stopped in the past period either, and it sounds just as intense.”
"It seems that the situation we are facing is still very serious." Slapping his thigh hard, Duan Qing finally got up slowly after a moment of silence: "I don't know what the loss of the Libei Army will be, but even if it brings If we go to the Shi Nan Army, they probably won't be able to completely eliminate this beast wave. If another accident happens during this period -"
"I asked about the so-called 'victory conditions'. According to experienced members of other Hulun tribes, the attack of the beast tide often takes several days." Gedman continued without looking up. Shen Sheng replied: "According to past experience, as long as we can block the continuous attacks, or kill all the waves of attacks by the beast tide, causing heavy losses to the opponent, we may be able to win the entire battle. .”
"How many waves of attacks have we killed now?"
"Not even a wave."
Shaking his head, Goldman again answered Duan Qing with a sense of despair in his voice: "Enemies like the tide, fearless of death, and well-controlled... It's hard to imagine if there wasn't the same enemy. If the Hulun people, who are skilled in fighting, stand in the way, what will happen to us now."
"Don't worry so much. This is just a new test given to us by the system." Duan Qing smiled and tilted his head: "Just think of this tug-of-war as a brand new stage set up for us by the system. , there are still a lot of secrets waiting for us to discover."
"So I admire you, a heartless guy, and Asahi Dongsheng." The movements of his hands paused slightly, and a wry smile appeared on Gedman's face: "They have already been beaten like that. He can barely lift his hands, but he still has the energy to jump onto the battlefield alive."
"This shows that he has a certain consciousness." Duan Qing's lips twitched slightly: "Look, if he can survive this battle completely, that guy will definitely win in a duel. you."
"Okay, I admit that I'm old." Slowly holding on to the shield, he climbed up. Gedman then hid his wry smile in the movement of turning around: "But in terms of experience, I can definitely I won’t lose to him, not to mention that I also participated in this battle, and there are more and more people who realize that the situation is not good and want to go to the front line to support.”
"Although we have learned about the safety of Surtu, the Su and Wabu tribesmen have not seemed to relax at all recently." Pointing to the front of the tent, Duan Qing asked in a low voice. : "Are they also worried about the situation on the front line?"
"Including the people from the Lufen Chamber of Commerce, everyone is ready." Nodding as a response, Gedman began to shuffle forward: "Of course, I want them to be in such a situation. The possibility of risking one's life and selflessly helping people like the Hulun people under such circumstances, and after having witnessed such tragic circumstances, is extremely slim."
"...Among the forces that came to live here, is our Qingling Adventure Group the only one participating in the war?"
"Probably yes, even Bai Bu Wushuang didn't move." Walking to the entrance of the camp, Gedman replied sideways: "I guess it was because he was stopped by President Lu Fen, otherwise he is so competitive. With his martial-arts personality, he has already rushed to the front line."
"In the face of such an oppressive attack, it's good to be able to maintain the courage to stay here." Duan Qing shook his head and lay on his back on the grass with an indifferent expression: "No one complained. , and no one thought about escaping - the natural character of these grassland tribesmen is indeed admirable."
"What's the use? It would be great if they really had a way to repel the attack of the beast tide." As if he was ready, Gedman walked towards the depths of the grassland in front of him without looking back: " If this momentum continues, we probably won’t be able to survive the final dawn.”
"Remember to help me keep an eye out for suspicious guys." He shouted these words at the other party. Duan Qing then stopped pouting: "Just stay here, just stay here. Anyway, rush up." They are all given away.”
"If we don't hurry up and find a breaking point, everyone will die in the end."
The bleak wind kept blowing over the grassland as the fighting unfolded in the past few days, driving the black and gray battle lines back and forth between the vast world. The Hulun tribe who occasionally retreated later also With endless shouts and boundless momentum, they took back the original territory, and used the steel walls formed with each other to welcome the increasingly fierce attacks and bites of the roaring beast tide. Also participating in these defenses and counterattacks again and again, a one-armed man named Asahi Dongsheng also retreated from the battlefield several times in the past few days. He was also covered in scars, but he never showed the same behavior as Gedman He was exhausted, and his gesture of greeting Duan Qing also seemed to be in high spirits: "It's great! It's so great! Once you get used to this rhythm, killing is like mowing grass."
"Yes, I see that the murderous aura in you is about to overflow - how are you feeling lately?"
"Feeling? Of course it's great! As long as you see more of them, those tigers, leopards, bears, wolves and the like will look very cute!"
As if he had fallen into some kind of post-stress reaction, Asahi Dongsheng's face swept away the gloom he had shown when he returned to the camp on the first day: "My combat effectiveness is constantly improving! My combat achievements are also constantly increasing! If you give me a few more chances to play, I might even be able to work as an official in the Hulun army! Hahahahaha!"
"I hope you can really make a name for yourself." Duan Qing shook his head with a wry smile, and Duan Qing watched the almost tireless one-armed man jump into the frontline battlefield again: "Sure enough, there are all kinds of wonders in the world. "
"Even the taste is so unique."
He tugged on his gray magic robe and package, and also returned to his investigation again. Baibu Wushuang, who was occasionally pulled over by them to be a strong man, was now standing at the door of the tent with a tangled look on his face, watching this man. The magician disappeared from his sight. More and more grassland passed under the feet of the magician as he launched another investigation, and more and more Hulun people began to get to know this man who liked to investigate alone, until the impending crisis. When the bloody aura was once again pressed near the Hulun tribe and the battle lines began to shrink again, the figure belonging to Xue Ling Huan Bing appeared in front of Duan Qing again: "I feel relieved to see that you are still so energetic. It’s over.”
"Back?" Duan Qing was chatting with an old man passing by. He raised his eyebrows in surprise: "How is the situation?"
"There aren't many things I can find, and the situation is the same as what you described." The white robe was also stained with stains and blood. Xue Ling Huanbing reached out and brushed away the white hair that had stuck to her forehead due to running around. Long Hair: "All traces have been erased, it's like the person was never here - it's incredible."
"Although I have guessed this a long time ago." After sending away the old man in front of him, Duan Qing also lowered his head thoughtfully: "In addition to the power of the system, it is difficult for me to imagine that there is What kind of power can achieve this in the Hulun people?"
"When you mentioned this, I already felt very strange." Walking along the gap formed between the tents, the voice of Xueling Huanbing also appeared with the sound of footsteps: "Although our The status is indeed a bit low, but coming here for so long without receiving any reception is an anomaly in itself."
"It's not that we haven't been received, but the other party obviously adheres to a certain level principle." Duan Qing, who followed him, replied in a low voice: "The one in charge of us is Elder Humobei, and the ones in charge of Surtu are them. ——This seems very reasonable, doesn’t it?”
"That's why this guy came into our sight." Xue Ling Huan Bing's eyes narrowed slightly as she frowned: "As the other suspect, he did not come into our sight at the beginning. However, this also makes our current investigation very difficult.”
"When both lines are blocked now, at least we should find clues to open the joint." After saying this incomprehensible words, Duan Qing then raised his chin: "For example - they mentioned What was the reason for the conflict in Apollon that day?"
"The tokens we spent a lot of money to get from the Lufen Chamber of Commerce played their role - the tribal merchant who knew the tokens introduced me to one of the Hulun elders." He took a deep breath. After a breath, Xue Ling Huan Bing then opened his eyes to sort out his thoughts: "That guy is obviously more interested in beauty and the like, so I took advantage of him a little bit. What happened that night? He He also revealed some to me."
"That night seems to be a tribal meeting, which is the day when the clan leader convenes other tribal elders to discuss important matters." Pointing to the center of the Hulun tribe's huge settlement, Xueling Huanbing continued in a deep voice: "Because the monsoon has stopped. , everyone understands what needs to be discussed in this tribal meeting, but-"
"That woman named Nasia broke into the big tent somehow."
As if following the other person's voice describing the changes in the scene in his mind, Duan Qing's eyes also followed Xue Ling Huan Bing's waving fingers: "She made a loud noise and stopped the meeting from proceeding. The elders and soldiers tried to She pulled her away, but the aura displayed by that woman who was supposed to be very weak made it difficult to approach."
"To describe it in his words at the time: She felt like a saint at that time." Speaking of this, Xue Ling Huan Bing paused slightly, and the obviously personal voice turned to Duan Qing: "Do you believe this? Description?"
"I have been inquiring about Naxia's origins in the past few days, but the people of the Hulun tribe can't tell. They only know that this woman is a woman who has been active in the tribe a long time ago. Although she is weak, But very kind." Duan Qing replied in a low voice: "If the identity and the reasons she described are consistent with each other, then this plot can still be believed."
"In short, only the patriarch can confront her, and the patriarch finally issued the order to expel Nasia." Nodding his head, Xueling Huanbing continued: "The elders present still did not make any move or object. Opinion, only the guards were still going up to arrest people, and at that moment, Nasia suddenly rushed forward and snatched away the wind calming stone placed in the center of the tent."
"This is all that the elder could reveal to me." The white-haired swordswoman spread her hands: "'The envoy of the gods will punish you' - except for this sentence, she did not leave anything extra. words."
"She then ran out of the tent and disappeared into the chaos inside and outside the venue."
