It was very lively at the foot of the mountain. The soldiers lit a bonfire to disperse the darkness and brighten the camp. Except for the guards who were responsible for guarding, the rest celebrated the victory on the flat ground in front of the camp. After several fat six legged deer were slaughtered, they were divided into strips of meat and roasted on the fire. Skillful soldiers were responsible for cooking this rare game. As the greasy meat strips are roasted thoroughly by fire, the venison gradually presents a golden color, with a meat fragrance that makes people move their fingers, floating in the air with the evening wind. Accompanied by the soldiers' songs of self entertainment, the atmosphere of the celebration was naturally pushed to the climax.
When zero came to havila, six or seven soldiers were singing some songs that zero had never heard. Their songs are wild, like the burning flame, with the masculine smell of men's iron blood. Even the zero ice state of mind felt surging after listening to it, let alone others. Even Haiwei blushed and hummed, obviously very excited.
Finding the arrival of zero, brown boldly pushed him into the crowd and said, "boys, look who's coming."
Seeing that it was zero, the soldiers gradually quieted down, and even the soldiers who sang loudly stopped singing awkwardly. Zero became the devil's coach in two months of training, and what the soldiers feared was zero. The coach not only completed all the training he set, but also did more than ordinary soldiers. So in the eyes of the soldiers, it seemed that there was a devil like power hidden in the slender body.
Zero nodded to the soldiers. Brown was obviously excited and said to zero, "head, don't you say a few words to us?"
Nodding, he looked at Brown and at the soldiers. His eyes became sharp. Even Brown had the feeling that he didn't dare to look at anyone if his real eyes fell on him.
"Celebration party?" the zero voice was a little cold, which lowered the originally high atmosphere. He said faintly: "I have to say that your battle is commendable from strategy to action. However, it is not perfect. Apart from other loopholes, you are obviously careless about the night attack on the ER nationality base. You launched an attack without exploring the truth inside and outside the base, resulting in failure. Although you won today, don't forget that you are Carry a new era rifle to deal with the barbarians with machetes and sledgehammers. If the other party's technology is equal to yours, you won't win so easily. Remember me, never let victory confuse your mind. You still have a long way to go. "
After that, zero turned to leave. But he stood still. Finally, a smile appeared on his face, like the ice and snow unsealed. Zero smiled and said, "but in general, you did a good job! Continue to work hard!"
I don't know who suddenly shouted, "yes, head!"
With everyone attached, the roar shook the sky and the atmosphere was warm.
The camp regained its vitality, found a quiet place on the edge and sat down. Looking at the slightly red clouds in the distance, I didn't know what to think. Suddenly, footsteps sounded in my ears, followed by Brown's loud voice: "head, the meat is roasted, have some."
The big man sat next to zero with a dagger in his hand. The dagger carried two strips of meat. The strips still exuded light smoke, and the rich meat aroma suddenly got into zero's nose. Zero was not polite. He reached out to pick up one of the strips and sent it to his mouth, and ate it clean.
After eating the venison himself, brown patted his stomach and said, "head, you were right just now. We really got dizzy about victory."
"Don't take it to heart. I say those are trying to frustrate their spirit and save themselves from being too happy. It's not good to go to the battlefield again with such a mentality," zero said casually.
"No, you're right," Brown said awkwardly, touching his big head. "I was a little complacent before, but now I think there are still many mistakes in some of the details. If we had found out earlier, our casualties could be reduced."
When it comes to casualties, zero comes up with a number: 27.
This is the number of soldiers killed on the zero side of the Crusade mission. On the whole, this number is still within the acceptable range of zero, but it is not ideal. In terms of scientific and technological content, the zero army undoubtedly has an overwhelming advantage, but the most ordinary soldier of the El nationality also has two-level enhanced strength and defense equal to those with ability. This virtually brings each other closer The distance between science and technology, but the cause of soldiers' casualties is not caused by the soldiers of the El nationality. According to the statistics after the war, the soldiers who died in battle mainly died in the hands of the clan leader of the El nationality and another elite soldier killed by Haiwei.
Needless to say, the head of the El clan finally launched a move like the weather and directly killed more than ten soldiers. According to Haiwei's report, the elite soldiers killed by her also had at least three to four levels of strength and defense.
After all, capable people are always natural enemies of ordinary people. Even a cat armed to its teeth will not be an opponent of a lion.
On a deeper level, in asgat's evaluation system, the El nationality belongs to a newly civilized low intelligent race. If it is low, there are medium, high and even unknown races. Among these races, God knows how many life beings have the power no less than those with ability.
From the Julian mountains to the west, there is a vast land. Even if asgat sends the golden Tomahawk to the west, the scope of the golden Tomahawk is extremely limited from the overall area of the land. What's more, the Legion is only marching vertically, so the information they find is extremely limited.
In this vast land, I'm afraid there are more alien beings who have evolved more completely.
Thinking of this, zero would like to immediately rush to the western land for exploration. But he knows that he can't do this with his current resources and strength.
Only patience, development. When the wings are plump, they are qualified to explore the mysterious land in the West.
Brown didn't know that zero had thought so much. He just felt that zero suddenly became silent and his eyes became boundless. It seems that there is a world, even the universe, hidden in those strange eyes.
It was not until the sound of a dispute floated into their ears that zero's eyes returned to focus. Looking at the source of the sound with brown, it turned out that Haiwei and Yelu came together. It's a dispute, but it's Haiwei who keeps talking from head to tail. On the contrary, Yelu still looks like Fu Ping. After starting the natural stay mode, Yelu ignored Haiwei's fierce verbal attack, but occasionally insisted on her own words, so Haiwei opened her teeth and claws like a kitten stepped on her tail.
"What's the matter, you two?" Brown asked with a smile when he saw the two girls.
Haiwei saw that it was two people and immediately dragged Yelu to come over. Yelu's arm was seriously injured in the battle with Kos. It has been dealt with now. However, Yelu's ability does not have the advantage of recovery. Therefore, in the next period of time, I'm afraid the girl's combat power will be reduced. It's just that Yelu doesn't seem to care. She is dragged by Haiwei like a delicate doll, but occasionally frowns and tells that she is helpless about Haiwei's behavior. This expression makes the girl look a little cute. If she doesn't know Yelu, I'm afraid she can't connect her with the cold killing against Kos.
"Boss, and uncle brown. You said, haven't we cleaned up the El tribe? Xiaoye insisted that there might be some fish missing!" Haiwei said angrily.
Yeliu said quietly, "don't call me Xiaoye. I'm older than you."
The natural girl obviously has her own support. Looking at the two girls with different temperament, zero smiled and asked, "why do you think so, Yelu? To be honest, I have personally confirmed that there are no other El people except the two prisoners in the two battlefields."
Yelu ignored Haiwei, who looked pale next to her. She looked at zero and said, "because the human bear said the words mother and revenge when he died. So I think there may be other branches of the ER nationality."
"Mother?"
It is not clear whether the ER nationality has a side branch zero, but the "mother" in Yelu's mouth makes zero care very much. He remembered as if he had heard the word somewhere, so zero quickly searched his memory and soon found the familiar reason.
It was when he became a shining knight, when he took Lilith's dark crown. Part of Lilith's memory was briefly shared at the spiritual level through the dark crown and zero. But it was agradis who controlled the body at that time, so the whole process was short and vague. But in that, one word is very clear.
That's mother.
Obviously, this word has a very profound meaning for Lilith. From the fact that Lilith was created by prohughes, the so-called "mother" of Lilith should refer to prohughes.
So is the mother in the mouth of the El patriarch the same?
This is not impossible. The evolution of mutants was also promoted by Proteus, in order to evolve organisms that can help it tear up the "prison". However, the evolution of mutants could not reach the speed and results that Proteus wanted, so it was regarded as a failed product, abandoned and changed to the emergence of the real king. But these failures, after decades of evolution, also appeared intelligent life.
Alien is a new life form similar to the real king and different from the real king. It's hard to guarantee that Proteus took a fancy to the particularity of the alien race, so he reconnected with these creatures through some mysterious channels.
If this conjecture is confirmed, it is possible that Proteus has cast a hidden net on the whole planet.
Zero felt it necessary to inform Ben of this matter. After all, with his current ability, he was unable to make any response to this kind of thing.
Three days later, zero returned to asgat.
He first went to the headquarters and handed over the task. When the items about the Crusade task in the task system were marked as completed, there would be more than one million in the zero account. This operation can be said to have gained a lot. The income from the mission is only the book income, but more income comes from the two El fighters. They were brought back to asgat and handed over to Ben's biochemical base.
These two living specimens were purchased by asgat at the price of 3 million each. The living El people have great research value. In addition to body composition and genetic code, more importantly, they can enable asgat to make a valuable contribution to the study of the evolutionary history of alien species.
Of course, asgat did not get many exotic specimens, and there were also many living specimens. However, the body structure of each alien is different, and the genetic code is also very different. They are like a huge biological database. Only the more they are collected can asgat find out the whole picture of the database. Therefore, asgat does not refuse new specimens, especially living specimens.
In addition, zero also sold two intact Er corpses. Of course, the value of dead specimens is not as much as living ones. As for the alien race, it is obvious that the black rose family is not interested in research, so the two specimens let Brown sell on the black market, with a total income of about 1 million.
So all together, zero won about 8 million for this mission, and after deducting equipment consumption and pensions for soldiers killed in battle, there are still 6 million left.
The income after deducting costs is profit. It's just a battle with other races, and zero sees huge profits. No wonder those powerful families or companies will vigorously promote the exploration of Korean unknown regions. Unknown represents risk, while bearing huge risk, it is often a high profit.
Soon, the money was divided into several parts. One is to inject into the capital chain of zero technology to provide stamina for subsequent development and R & D; One is remitted to the account of Victor laboratory to provide financial guarantee for rebirth plan and future pharmaceutical development; The third part is the salary, bonus and other expenses of the party's personnel; The last one is zero.
Zero shook his head when he saw the wealth of his few numbers. Sometimes, the boss is not so easy to be.
The next few days were a blank period. There were no tasks worth sending troops to the headquarters, but the soldiers did not get a leisurely holiday. Zero was not in the base, but he handed over the important task of training troops to brown, so the title of devil coach was quickly changed from zero to brown. But brown seemed to enjoy the title and kept pressing on the premise that the soldiers could bear it, making the soldiers cry every day.
Veterans are training, and recruits begin to recruit one after another. But this time, the requirements of recruits are far less demanding than last time, because zero knows that quantity and quality are always relative. He already has a group of veterans of good quality as the base team. Naturally, he also needs some recruits as cannon fodder.
Yes, it's cannon fodder. Zero can never let the elite rush up in every war. In economics, this is an extremely shameful waste. It is impossible to fight without sacrifice. Instead of sacrificing the elite made with a lot of effort, it is better to use these cheap ordinary soldiers who do not need to invest much training funds as cannon fodder.
Cruelty is inevitable. After all, this is not an era of kindness.
Even if they are not elite, if these cannon fodder are killed in battle, zero will pay their families about 20% higher than their peers. In this regard, zero is far kinder than others.
Therefore, when horizon technology hung up the recruitment notice again, a large number of retired soldiers or mercenaries poured into the ground building of the base.
This time, zero recruited 500 recruits, but it was to prepare for the next slave hunt.
During the busy period of the company, zero took time to meet Ben and told him the word "mother" mentioned by the El patriarch before he died. But zero conceals the existence of procius. After all, it's his secret. Zero can't tell Ben everything. Just the word "mother" is enough for this imagination, so the purpose of zero warning has been achieved.
After that, he visited theon again. The founder of remt is now living a life of drunkenness and dreams in asgat. When he visited him, theon was full of wine. And in his house, zero saw two beautiful women, and I don't know which noble lady or lady it was.
When zero left theon's house, he could only sigh secretly. This man with outstanding talent still allows himself to sink into pain, which means self exile. Because theon is too smart, it is difficult for outsiders to get him out of the trough. Everything depends on theon's own will.
Maybe it will take some time. Zero thought that he did not give up his intention to persuade theon to join his team, and became more and more determined.
In such a busy day, zero finally received Beyonce's invitation. Apparently, it was a private dinner held by the black rose family, but in fact, it was a meeting to discuss the slave arrest plan.
When I received this gilded invitation on a black background from the servant of the black rose family, I knew that the day of the war would come again.
It is night, over asgat, the holographic electronic plate evolves the magnificent star sea and milky way. The Milky way formed by countless stars runs across the night sky. The huge moon wheel with silver light hangs in a corner of the Milky way, presenting a beautiful picture like a dream, setting off the city in the mountainside like a kingdom of God.
Zero drove his SUV alone on the road of asgat. Although he had only been to the manor of the black rose family once, his extraordinary memory recorded the road map without error. Now it's just to review the route taken that day, but it's hard to go back to zero.
The wind blew across my cheeks, bringing up a little black hair, flying like inflammation. Driving in this great city and watching the endless flow of vehicles, zero can feel the great vitality of the city. In this situation, how can there be some apocalyptic scene? If you live in asgat for a long time, you will forget the cold and cruelty of the wilderness outside the city.
When thinking like this, zero shook his head mockingly. How could a man who worked for a living like him be so leisurely to live in asgat for a long time. In the final analysis, only those noble lords are qualified to have a drunken life.
The car turned a corner and got off the road. Follow a private road opened by the black rose family and drive to the suburbs. The manor of the black rose family is located in this suburb. After passing several towering electric towers, zero can vaguely see the Gothic ancient building, dotted with gorgeous lights under the starry river.
It seems that the dinner party has begun.
