Su Wen felt that Walnut seemed to be much heavier and his eyes were sharper, but Walnut's eyes were a little dodgey and he even curled up his left paw.
"injured?"
Su Wen thought in surprise.
Although Su Wen could not see the fight between Walnut and Lobster Man, he could imagine the danger involved.
Su Wen just unfolded Walnut's claws, but he didn't see any wounds. He only saw some golden blood stained on the fluff on the edge of the cat's paws.
Seeing these golden blood threads, Walnut remained reserved for a few seconds, and finally couldn't help but lick it.
"As long as you're not hurt..."
Su Wen breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't care about the walnut licking behavior. In his opinion, it is natural for cats to lick their fur. This is just the walnut's behavior of cleaning stains.
"Master... we can retreat now."
Jin Gaila quickly finished issuing the orders, and Dagon in the tribe also quickly completed the integration, covering the disabled women and children, collecting supplies, and then the whole camp could set off.
Su Wen nodded, and following Jin Kaila's order, the Dagon tribe began to retreat towards Anranju.
The beast tide brought devastating disaster to Jin Kaila's tribe.
After a simple inventory, only half of the tribe's population was left, mostly women and children, and all the strong warriors were injured.
After a bloody battle, the only gain for the Dagon clan was that several Sequence Four extraordinary beings had completed their transformation, and their bloodline power had been promoted to the Sequence Five level.
only……
Compared with the losses, this gain is almost negligible.
The tribe has lost far more extraordinary warriors than have been promoted, and the number of the tribe has dropped sharply, and is about to reach a number that threatens the survival of the tribe. If it suffers another consumption of the same scale, Jin Jiala's tribe will cease to exist.
Although Jin Kaila did not express it, Su Wen could also see that Jin Kaila was filled with regret at this time. If he had listened to Su Wen and sought Dagon's asylum, his tribe would not have suffered heavy casualties.
But at this time, it was no longer possible to seek refuge with Dagon.
Dagon is now besieged by a tide of beasts and is in deep disaster.
However, Dagon also realized how powerful the Lobster Man was and turned himself into a huge defensive fortress, attracting millions of alien beasts to besiege it. At the same time, it was frantically absorbing the energy of the alien beasts it killed, waiting for the Lobster Man.
of raids.
When Su Wen communicated with it, he told it about the existence of red gold and red lobster people. Dagon said that there were already ways to deal with it. If it really couldn't be defeated, it also had the ability to escape, so there was no need to worry about it.
"Master... you can ride on my shoulders!"
Jin Kaila's body suddenly swelled and turned back into a behemoth ten feet tall.
"I heard that you want to be promoted to the second rank of military strategist... and you need a mount."
Jin Gaola squatted on the ground.
"this……"
The muscles on Su Wen's face were twitching.
Jin Kaila is right.
The second rank of the military strategist is "as the name suggests", he must complete the promotion as a cavalryman.
However, there were not many beasts suitable to be used as mounts in the Ruins World. Su Wen had no idea about this, so he put the advancement of the Military Sequence 2 in the back of his mind and prepared to attack other ways with all his strength to complete the foundation of the Historian Sequence 2.
But Jin Kaila said... he could be a mount.
It was hard for Su Wen to imagine riding such a thing to fight on the battlefield, especially for those enemies who were not extraordinary beings. This was really not an enemy they could bear.
"Who told you?"
Su Wen asked curiously.
He didn't want to be promoted to the rank of military strategist in the short term, but Jin Jiala suggested that there must be some reason for this, and... Jin Jiala was not a careful person and would not notice this. Even if he did, a Dagon was
How do you know the promotion requirements for the military career path?
"Mr. Ren said it."
Jin Gaola answered honestly: "Before he left, he told you... that you should quickly improve your strength and leave here... The promotion to the second sequence of the Shi family can be completed after leaving here, which is also possible."
"..."
Su Wen frowned.
He didn't understand why Ren Zhengan asked Jin Gaela to tell him these contents instead of telling him directly.
But Su Wen is not stupid either.
After thinking for a while, he figured out the key.
Extraordinary historians record history and can naturally have a glimpse of history. They can even see some fragments of the future through the power of time they control.
However, extraordinary historians are also cautious enough about history, especially when communicating with other extraordinary historians. They cannot easily reveal the special knowledge they possess. This is not to hide their own interests, but each extraordinary person has different perceptions.
There is no absolute answer, and there is no absolute knowledge. If the other party cannot bear the corresponding knowledge, or has a blank cognition in a relative field, the knowledge beyond the scope of cognition will affect the extraordinary person, causing
He has cognitive biases.
Therefore, when Ren Zhengan saw what he saw, he did not dare to explain it directly to Su Wen. Instead, he filtered it through Jin Jialu and let Su Wen obtain harmless information.
From this point of view, Ren Zhengan has good intentions.
"Guixu...is there a major danger coming?"
Su Wen subconsciously thought of this possibility.
Ren Zhengan may have seen that a huge disaster was about to happen in Guixu and reminded him to run away quickly.
The time of departure was after Su Wen was promoted to the second rank of military strategist.
Although Su Wen had not planned to be promoted to the second rank of the military strategist before, promotion to the second rank of the military strategist was not difficult and could be accomplished as long as the conditions were right.
After all, the conditions for promotion to the second rank of military strategist do not require any weird or special secret medicine. They only require drinking a bowl of warm liquor, getting on a mount and rushing into the enemy, killing the enemy commander, or killing through the military formation three times.
Considered a success.
When Su Wen first saw this promotion ceremony, he was madly complaining in his heart.
Isn't this the scene in "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in which "warm wine kills Hua Xiong"? How can it also become a promotion ceremony?
But the promotion ceremony of the extraordinary path is inherently weird. For this kind of ceremony that is not too difficult, Su Wen is considered to be burning high incense.
Now that he has his mounts and there is no shortage of drinks, it is really not too difficult for Su Wen to complete the promotion to the second rank of military strategist.
After all, there are no regulations in the promotion ceremony. The mount cannot be an extraordinary species, let alone a terrifying existence like Sequence Six.
"If the general environment in Guixu hadn't gotten worse... the situation might have been even more dire."
Su Wen thought of other possibilities.
If Ren Zhengan's reminder has little effect on the overall situation in Guixu, then it has something to do with his experience.
"Did Ren Zhengan see me in danger?"
Su Wen took a deep breath.
"That should be it..."
After thinking about this possibility for a while, Su Wen came to a conclusion.
Ren Zhengan left suddenly, naturally because of the promotion ceremony. However, he did not say a word or say hello before leaving, which seemed abrupt and abnormal.
These are the details Ren Zhengan left for him. I hope he can learn about Ren Zhengan's strangeness from these unusual actions. Then through Jin Jiala's mouth, this unusualness will be amplified.
Given Su Wen's character, Ren Zhengan is so abnormal. If he didn't think about whether there were any problems, he wouldn't be Su Wen.
"Did Lao Ren say anything else?"
Su Wen asked Jin Kaila, he hoped Jin Kaila could remember more details.
But Jin Gaola shook his head blankly.
Ren Zhengan left in a hurry, fleeing far away while delivering news to Jin Kaila.
Jin Kaila only accepted the news and could not even ask questions. Ren Zhengan had drifted away.
"All right……"
Apparently, it's time to leave Guixu.
Su Wen felt sad for a while.
But... Su Wen also felt that it was a pity to leave Guixu at this time.
For those who are extraordinary in other ways, Guixu at this time is already a hell on earth and should not stay for a long time.
But the extraordinary historians are different.
This is an opportunity to witness history. From the emergence, process and end of the beast tide, if Su Wen can completely witness it, Su Wen will definitely be able to get powerful feedback from historians and gain huge gains.
This is the case for Ren Zhengan, who took advantage of this opportunity to get promoted.
"It's still too weak..."
Su Wen sighed.
no way……
The mere flutter of a historian, mixed in such a big event, is not witnessing history, but becoming a speck of dust under the rolling wheels of history. If you are not careful, you will be rolled over by the wheels of history.
From then on, it became part of history and even became a negative teaching material.
"Go back to An Ranju first and then make any plans."
Su Wen made up his mind.
There is a horde of beasts outside An Ran's home. If he wants to be promoted to the second rank of military strategist, he will have many opportunities.
On the way back, there was no trace of the beast tide, not even a single body of the iron-shelled beast that was killed on the road could be seen.
Only then did Su Wen notice that when the beast tide left, they would take away the bodies of their companions.
"These guys are very orderly..." Su Wen couldn't help but sigh, his understanding of the beast tide had been greatly improved.
If the beast tide hadn't swept everywhere and left a mess, Su Wen would have wondered if his memory had gone awry when he saw the peaceful scene around him. The beast tide had never appeared, and everything was just his hallucination.
Of course this is not the case.
He knew very well that the beast tide was still raging around Guixu, but within thirty miles of him as the center, the beast tide consciously dodged, let alone harassing the marching Dagon tribe, and they did not even dare to get close.
There was nothing that could be done about it. Su Wen couldn't feel it, but those lobstermen who were driving away the beast tide felt the direction where Su Wen was, and there was an aura that made them fearful.
And these lobsters have also received the news that many of their companions, powerful companions, were easily killed by the owner of this breath, without even leaving a trace of their souls, and they died completely.
Although they did not receive orders or instructions, the high-level lobstermen around them unanimously avoided this area in a tacit understanding. As long as the beings entrenched here did not provoke them, they would not set foot in this area.
If this terrifying guy takes the initiative to seek their bad luck, they also have flexible tactics they can use, which is to desperately escape back to the sea and seek the protection of their great master.
