"What have you encountered? Why are you all in this state, where are the others?"
These n had just returned, alarming the military upper class. General Luo Ha quickly appeared in front of them.
A mission managent staff mber beside them, clutching a notebook, said, "Many of these people are new recruits who only joined a few days ago. They were given a border patrol mission. They were supposed to have just gone out on patrol."
The mission tag clearly recorded it all. How many people participated, the ID number of each individual, everything was very clear.
Xi Qianxue stepped forward and said, "Indeed, our mission was a patrol, but we were attacked by Half-Beastn. Half-Beastman hero Lucas, with his elite Half-Beastman army, is ready to cross the East Mountain gap and enter our rear."
Xi Qianxue had the highest military rank amongst them. It was her that accepted the mission, so she was the most appropriate one to speak out.
"Lucas? That guy, how could he appear there. And how could there not be a single lookout at the East Mountain gap. That area should have been monitored by Wood Shield City... I see now."
A sharp light flashed in Luo Ha’s eyes, he said solemnly, "Tell about the battle situation, I want the most detailed intelligence."
This was sothing Xi Qianxue had prepared for beforehand. The battlefield record keeper quickly handed a notebook to General Luo Ha, which recorded all the information from the beginning to the end of the entire battle.
Looking at the records, Luo Ha’s gaze seed incredulous. Three hundred ordinary-looking soldiers had annihilated three thousand elite Half-Beastn, including Lucas himself, it was an extraordinary achievent. Seems like these newcors had more potential than he had imagined.
Perhaps, it was ti to give them more responsibilities.
Thinking of this, General Luo Ha imdiately said, "You all did a great job, I have to discuss this with others, your rewards will be given to you tomorrow." Saying this, Luo Ha grabbed the notebook, took the record keeper with him, and left the premises.
After having been on the road the entire day, each person returned to their room to rest.
The rewards were distributed quite quickly, by the second day noon, the military had already delivered the notifications.
"Ha ha, my performance was so eye-catching, my promotion was certainly swift." Du You discovered that he had surprisingly obtained the rank of a centurion. He had actually surpassed Xi Qianxue in rank overnight.
Of course, that was only previously. Before, Xi Qianxue was only a deputy of a hundred-person team, but after this ti, as a commander, Xi Qianxue’s rits were the greatest. Rumor has it she could now command a large team of three hundred people, which was much higher than his own rank. But Du You didn’t care about this rank at all.
Being in charge of a hundred-person team was too troubleso, with managing their relationships and their eating, drinking, and other daily needs. It was really troubleso.
It was much more comfortable to be by himself. Plus, he had a plan.
After completing this mission, their ban had been lifted. They were previously not allowed to leave. Du You walked into the mission hall by himself. Next, everyone had their own plans, they would not likely team up.
"I’ll take this mission, register for it." Du You took a mission tag.
The mission tag stated that there were so disturbances at the Black Fla Iron vein and soone needed to investigate. This was exactly what Du You had chosen. That’s right, Du You had been aiming for this vein for a while.
To be precise, he was planning to search and see if he could find a piece of Dark Elent Stone. If he could find one, then his third summoned creature would be set.
"Are you certain you want to take this task? This task is very dangerous, and there isn’t much benefit. After all, we don’t have any use for the Black Fla Iron ore." The receptionist said hesitantly.
"I’ll take it, there’s nothing much to do temporarily anyway, I’m going to check it out. Maybe the vein will co in handy at so point." Du You still rembered what Lao Da had said, in the later stages of the Derived World, so mages will join and the Black Fla Iron vein will beco a target of contention.
"Alright, if you insist." The other party quickly registered Du You.
With the status of a centurion, in Border City, he is already considered a high-ranking military official. Even though he can’t participate in the decision-making yet, he is already a mid-level personnel. There aren’t many centurions in this Border City.
Without anyone else tagging along, Du You left Border City alone. Without any burdens, he could ride on Xiaozi, using the Purple Lightning Golden Eagle as his transportation, it was very fast.
The level 4 peak Purple Lightning Golden Eagle had grown in size compared to before, its speed had increased, and it had more stamina. A short while later, they were near the Black Fla Iron Vein.
This place was not far from where Du You had exterminated the bandits with Lao Da and Lao Er last ti.
Only, this ti they were further north. "This barren place does not seem like a good place", Du You thought, looking down from the air. The area was surrounded by a verdant forest, but it turned barren all of a sudden here. It had been eroded by the power of the Black Fla Iron, almost nothing grew around it.
Also, by judging the plants, they could easily deduce the real size and direction of the Black Fla Iron Vein. It was one of the easiest veins to determine.
"According to the intelligence, there’s sothing strange about this place. This strangeness...could it be haunted? I wonder who could be in such a place. If it is man-made, there might be a presence of a dark mage in the vicinity."
Du You was on guard; mages and warriors were different. Warriors generally clashed directly, and their tactics were evident. But it was different for mages, they had endless tricks and guile.
They didn’t have professional skill slot restrictions. So no one knew what they have learned.
First, he had to determine what was hiding here: was it the mage he worried about, a magical beast, or sothing else. Du You landed and slowly walked towards the direction of the mine.
"It’s so strange, they clearly don’t need the ore, why did they have to dig a mine. Who could have done this?" Du You murmured to himself, approaching the mine unnoticed. As a Dark Shaper himself, a dark class, Du You didn’t need things like torches for light anymore. After entering, his eyes could adapt to the dark environnt.
