**Chapter 1193: The First Nine Teams Are Struggling**
Wang Zhenghao and Rong Jie were ng Gang’s subordinates. ng Gang’s words carried more weight than Lin Moyu’s. The two suppressed their inner dissatisfaction and frustration, "We understand."
ng Gang nodded and followed Lin Moyu into the military rit office.
Yuzhu quickly caught up with Lin Moyu, "Aren’t we going to do the task? Why are we going back to the military rit office?"
Lin Moyu replied, "To buy so things."
Yuzhu asked, "Are you going to buy the Zhenjin Pills?"
"Yes." Lin Moyu nodded and had already arrived at the purchasing counter.
To do a good job, one must first sharpen their tools.
Before the task, preparations must be made.
Every area on the battlefield has its dangers. So dangers co from hostile races, while others co from the battlefield itself.
For example, the dark stars and flashing star fires in Area 5-38 are very dangerous.
Even the stellar essence fire itself is unsafe, often burning cultivators to death.
The bismuth gold in Area 6-99 seems less dangerous, but it is not safe either.
Bismuth gold has an associated mineral that contains a peculiar toxin.
This toxin is like invisible light, enveloping the entire starry sky.
As long as you are in it, even without breathing, the toxin can invade your body, and even magical treasures cannot block it. The toxin is not strong but can accumulate over ti.
When it accumulates to a certain extent, the toxicity erupts, affecting cultivation at best, causing severe injuries, or even damaging the foundation at worst.
After long years of research, the military’s alchemists developed a pill called Zhenjin Pill. The Zhenjin Pill can resist the toxin, and one pill is effective for ten days.
Lin Moyu was not afraid of this toxin. Without the influence of laws, pure toxins could not harm him.
But for ng Gang and others, it was a different story.
ng Gang had been to Area 6-99 and had contact with bismuth gold. He must know to prepare Zhenjin Pills. Wang Zhenghao and Rong Jie must also know, and Yuzhu even more so.
In terms of common sense, they certainly surpassed him.
They must have prepared Zhenjin Pills.
But their preparation was their business. As the captain of this task, Lin Moyu had his own ideas. ng Gang ca to Lin Moyu’s side, "Captain, are you going to buy Zhenjin Pills?"
Lin Moyu nodded, "Buy so, just in case."
ng Gang said, "The military has already prepared Zhenjin Pills for us. You only need to buy your own share."
As he spoke, he looked at Yuzhu, who imdiately said, "I have also prepared Zhenjin Pills."
Lin Moyu seed not to hear them. He had already found the Zhenjin Pills in the item list.
Zhenjin Pills are among the most common items, and any soldier can buy them with military rits.
The price is not high, 10 military rits per pill, each pill effective for ten days.
Lin Moyu did not know how long this trip would take, so he bought 100 pills, spending 1,000 military rits.
The military rits were deducted, and soon soone delivered the Zhenjin Pills to Lin Moyu.
"I don’t know how many Zhenjin Pills the military gave you, but this is my military rank promotion task. I am the captain, so the Zhenjin Pills should be prepared by ."
"Here are 100 Zhenjin Pills, along with the search array plate, all handed over to ng Gang for safekeeping."
Lin Moyu handed the jade bottle containing the Zhenjin Pills and the search array plate to ng Gang, then said in a low voice, "Let’s go."
The group exchanged glances. ng Gang saw a different look in Wang Zhenghao and Rong Jie’s eyes.
Lin Moyu’s words: "I am the captain, so the Zhenjin Pills should be prepared by ," had an impact on them.
Yuzhu’s eyes sparkled, but she said nothing and silently followed.
At Fortress No. 6, the teleportation array lit up.
Lin Moyu and his team of five appeared in the teleportation array.
After a brief pause, the teleportation array flashed again, sending them to the forward base in Area 99.
Upon leaving the forward base in Area 99, they imdiately felt a heavy, oppressive atmosphere.
An army was neatly stationed in the forward base, forming square formations in the starry sky.
The formations in the starry sky were not like those on the ground; they were cubic formations.
Each formation consisted of ten thousand soldiers, and as far as the eye could see, there were ten identical formations.
Each formation exuded an astonishing aura, and the soldiers’ aura condensed into one. Even a God King would have to bow before them.
Above the formations, tens of thousands of kiloters away, were nurous warships.
The entire army was ready to strike at any mont.
The presence of the army indicated that the situation here was not optimistic.
ng Gang and the others looked at the military formations with respect. Rong Jie couldn’t help but say, "Is a war about to start?"
Lin Moyu shook his head, "No, it won’t."
Rong Jie was slightly stunned and skeptical, "How do you know?"
Lin Moyu chuckled but did not explain. He flew towards Area 99.
The four quickly followed. Rong Jie kept asking, "How do you know a war won’t start?"
Lin Moyu still did not answer. Rong Jie wanted to ask again, but ng Gang sternly said, "Shut up."
Rong Jie trembled and obediently closed his mouth.
He was ng Gang’s subordinate, and ng Gang’s words were very effective.
After flying for a million kiloters, the starry sky beca quiet, and the forward base was just a small dot in the distance.
At this point, Lin Moyu stopped and said to ng Gang, "Explain why a war won’t start and give a detailed account of the task."
ng Gang nodded, "In Area 6-99, a group of Gold-Eating Beasts suddenly appeared, causing significant harm to various races in the area."
"The number of Gold-Eating Beasts is unknown, but it is certain that there are many, and they have guarded the commonly used passages, making it difficult for the cultivators inside to escape."
"Upon receiving the news, the military imdiately dispatched troops."
"However, other races also dispatched their armies, leading to a standoff."
"After negotiations, it was decided that each race would send teams for rescue, with each team not exceeding five mbers and each race not exceeding ten teams."
"The first nine teams that went in did not achieve satisfactory results. We are the tenth team from the human race."
After he finished speaking, Rong Jie couldn’t help but ask, "Why don’t the armies go in? If the armies went in, it shouldn’t be difficult to slaughter the Gold-Eating Beasts."
His words drew a disdainful look from Yuzhu, as if she were looking at an idiot, "If the armies went in to slaughter the Gold-Eating Beasts, they would also kill the cultivators of hostile races, right?"
Yuzhu’s words left Rong Jie speechless.
Indeed, if the armies went in, they would inevitably kill the cultivators of hostile races while slaughtering the Gold-Eating Beasts and rescuing their own cultivators.
Faced with the army’s slaughter, how many cultivators could resist?
So the armies of various races were in a standoff, and it was impossible to allow the armies of other races to go in.
Sending small teams for rescue was the result of negotiations among the races.
Wang Zhenghao asked, "Didn’t the previous teams bring back any useful information?"
ng Gang shook his head, "No, due to the toxin in Area 99, it is difficult to transmit information from inside."
Wang Zhenghao’s voice was heavy, "It seems this task is very dangerous."
Rong Jie’s face also looked grim. He had realized the danger of the task.
Only Yuzhu remained smiling, her bright eyes shining like stars, showing no sign of worry.
