Although he speaks softly, Mr. Gong, a small earthly immortal, is inconspicuous in this battlefield of immortals and demons.
Being assigned the task of detecting the enemy's movements, I could only admit it with pinched noses.
A tall figure walked out of the tent and glanced at the two of them casually.
"The reconnaissance army's camp is in the north. Counting you two, there are eight people in the Seventh Reconnaissance Team. Let me introduce myself first. My name is Luo Jun. I am from the Heavenly Immortal Realm. I am your direct superior.
If you find anything in the future, just report it to me directly."
Mr. Gong quickly lowered his head and said yes.
After Luo Jun exchanged soul breath with him, he explained.
"There are ten teams in the reconnaissance army, five of which are responsible for daytime, and the other five are responsible for night. You have one night to adapt to the battlefield. From tomorrow, the reconnaissance will officially begin.
Remember to be cautious, don’t act rashly after discovering the demon’s movements, and report to me as soon as possible, do you understand?”
"Understood."
Luo Jun nodded slightly and handed the surrounding terrain map to Mr. Gong, "In that case, you go to the camp first and get familiar with the other members of the team."
Mr. Gong took the terrain map and walked north with Xu Chunniang.
It wasn't until he walked a short distance away that the oppressive feeling he felt from Luo Jun gradually disappeared.
Elder Gong exhaled softly and complained to Xu Chunniang.
"It's going to be difficult now. Not only is the job of a scout dangerous, but it's also not very profitable. If you accidentally run into the demonic army, you'll be dead.
When I left the Third Heaven, my good friend comforted me, saying that she was trying hard to get me the job of cleaning the battlefield, but it seemed she had failed."
Xu Chunniang was thoughtful and suddenly asked, "Mr. Gong, have you offended someone?"
Mr. Gong was slightly startled. He had offended someone before, but it was just a trivial matter, and it had been hundreds of years.
The other party used some tricks to force him to hide in Zhangwei Mountain. At this moment, that person might have forgotten about him.
"It shouldn't be. The person I offended back then was a distant relative of a certain immortal. Not long after I went to Zhangwei Mountain, he settled in Saturn with that immortal. Since then, I have rarely heard from him.
Related news."
Mr. Gong recalled, "I also inquired about Li Mu Tianxian's birthday in advance. Li Mu Tianxian was at odds with the distant relative of the immortal whom I had offended.
I thought about asking my friend to say a few nice words in front of Li Mu Tianxian, so as to take the opportunity to return to Chang Jingtian. However, the transfer order was issued, but I was thrown onto the battlefield. It can only be said that I was unlucky.
"
Mr. Gong felt that he was unlucky, but Xu Chunniang felt that things were not that simple.
"Could it be that your former enemy bribed your good friend?"
Elder Gong was stunned and subconsciously shook his head in denial.
"It's impossible. Although I don't have much contact with that friend on weekdays, we worked hard together in Zongdongtian back then. We know each other well and she will never betray me.
And the person I offended, I heard that he was very successful after going to the third heaven. He might have forgotten about me long ago and was transferred to the battlefield. I can only say that this is his fate."
Xu Chunniang did not comment. Since Mr. Gong chose to trust her friend, she would not say anything more.
It’s just that people’s hearts are fickle, and often the answer that’s least willing to be believed is the one closest to the truth.
After Gong Lao adjusted his mood, he took out the terrain map, looked at it carefully, and pointed to a mountainous road billowing with black air in front of him.
"There are often demon soldiers in the mountains here. Those demonic auras are the traces left by the demonic ice. I saw from the terrain map that the scout camp is at the foot of the mountain. Let's go."
Based on their current walking distance, they could reach the camp in less than a stick of incense.
Xu Chunniang used the immortal energy in her eyes and looked far into the distance. The foot of the mountain was surrounded by evil energy. Dozens of tents were corroded and pitted, looming in the evil energy.
"Not quite right."
She stopped suddenly and looked ahead warily, "There seems to be something abnormal about these tents. All the tents have been eroded by demonic energy."
Elder Gong paused in his steps, and the immortal energy gathered between his eyes. He glanced at the tent at the foot of the mountain and found that the situation was exactly as she said.
But he was still a little hesitant, "This place is surrounded by demonic energy, and it's normal for the camp to be eroded. It shouldn't mean anything, right?"
"But don't you think the extent of erosion of these camps is a bit excessive?
Precisely because this place is surrounded by demonic energy, heavy protective formations must be set up near the camp to block the invasion of these demonic energies. Now that most of the tent has been eroded, there is only one possibility: all the protective formations at the foot of the mountain have been destroyed.
Got it!"
Elder Gong's expression changed suddenly, and he finally realized what had happened.
"These camps have all been attacked by the demonic army! I'm afraid these demonic armies haven't gone far yet. Let's leave here first!"
Mr. Gong's face was solemn, and he immediately took out his identity token to inform Luo Jun, and then he and Xu Chunniang flew away in the direction they came from.
Not long after the two flew back, they saw a group of elite soldiers flying in this direction in the distance. The leader was none other than the immortal Luo Jun they had met not long ago.
Luo Jun's face was as dark as water. He had obviously just received the news that not long ago, the five stationed reconnaissance teams were wiped out and the north was lost. This news was undoubtedly a heavy blow to him.
With sharp eyes, he spotted two figures. He originally thought they were survivors after being attacked by the demon army, but after taking a closer look, he discovered that the two people were Gong Xingshan and Xu Chunniang, who had recently joined the army today.
Luo Jun sped up his escape speed, stopped in front of the two men, and glanced at them majestically, "Tell me what you discovered."
Mr. Gong truthfully told what the two saw and heard, "When we saw that the situation was not good, we sent you a message as soon as possible..."
Luo Jun's face became colder and colder, and he interrupted him impatiently, "So after you two discovered that the camp in the north was attacked, you didn't take any action except to send me a message?"
Mr. Gong secretly complained and quickly defended himself, "You have explained before that if we discover any abnormal trends, we must report to you as soon as possible and are not allowed to act privately..."
"So what you're saying is that this is my fault?"
Elder Gong's heart sank, and he quickly lowered his head, "I don't dare."
"Gong Xingshan, after discovering the enemy's situation, was afraid and refused to move forward, delaying the opportunity to fight. Xu Chunniang is guilty of the same crime. You two go back to the main camp and wait to be punished!"
After saying that, without looking at the two of them again, he led the elite soldiers who were chasing him and continued flying towards the north.
Mr. Gong looked ugly and gritted his teeth and said, "I have discovered it now. Someone is definitely targeting me!"
Xu Chunniang sighed secretly, she was somehow implicated by Mr. Gong.
But having said that, if it weren't for Mr. Gong, she wouldn't have learned the news about the battlefield of immortals and demons so quickly.
