Closing his eyes to rest, Cassia recalled the route he had just taken, and remembered it one by one in his mind. At the same time, he also devoted part of his energy to thinking about his specific plans after leaving the southern forest, which would be to go to the endless
It’s about the tundra.
Just from their names, you can tell that they are very far apart. After all, one is in the south, and its vast area radiates to three giant countries on the continent. Among them, the Flame Alliance occupies nearly two-fifths of the southern forest.
Ecology and environment create different countries. The Endless Sea Tundra is closer to the north and connected to the coast. The frozen sea area is wider, close to one-third of the empire's own territory. The resources there are very rich.
, the island group under the ice was originally a fertile place before it was eroded by the severe cold. This is how it is explained in ancient history books.
It is impossible for Cassie Hei to get there through any transportation, so Cassia had the intention of using Cassie Hei as a means of transportation from the very beginning when he decided to come to the southern forest. The unrefined route map is along the southern forest.
The edge detours to the seaside, and then chooses the right time to pass over the shallow sea and enter the boundless sea tundra. Fortunately, the sea bordering the end of the southern forest is not very far away from the tundra.
The flight capability is enough to get there within three months.
Immersed in such thoughts until more than an hour passed, Cassia fell from the tree and returned to the observation base camp along the same route.
They met them halfway. Thirteen airships formed a line and were slowly heading towards the geothermal area. They were waiting for the sky to completely light up. Cassie Hei probably noticed something during this time when he chose the geothermal area.
.For example, a human who attacks itself seems to be able to capture its body temperature.
Following the end of the airship, Cassia soon followed the people at the observation base into the geothermal area. After advancing for several kilometers in a certain direction, the airship slowed down and began to shoot down with a .50 heavy machine gun.
Afterwards, more than a dozen strings of landing ropes brought down more than a hundred people, and within half an hour a landing area for an airship nearly a hundred meters in length was cleared.
At this time, the airships began to land one by one, put down the weapons and ammunition in their cabins, and then returned to the air. By the time the thirteen airships had completed this in order, the sun was barely falling through the mist.
There were more than 400 ground troops in total, but they seemed extremely small when surrounded by ancient trees. In the southern forests, the mature leaves of ancient trees are often the size of a few adult palms. After sorting out the equipment, the commander stepped forward and said:
As for the final action instructions, after the time for them and the other two large teams was up, everyone took out the potions prepared in advance and pricked them all on their necks.
More than 400 people were divided into five teams, marching in a fan shape toward the left front. There were dozens of people in each team walking behind the team carrying huge bags filled with Legon explosives.
A team was chosen at random, and Cassia followed quietly. Keeping a safe distance, the sound of gas spurting made Cassia appear more cautious. The pace of advancement was not fast, and the people observing the base seemed to only know Cassia's black name.
They don't have accurate information about the approximate location or where exactly they are hiding.
Cassia recorded the number of steps he took, and after walking about six kilometers, the team in front stopped. Excluding the dozen or so people standing guard, the remaining members quickly dug a large hole in the ground by hand, and dug a pile of
All the Legon explosives were buried. On the other side, other teams hundreds of meters away were doing the same thing. Taking this opportunity, Cassia took off his coat first, and then quietly approached a
The security personnel located slightly outside. It can be seen that most of the hundreds of people are in the first stage of surgery. They are here to perform tasks this time. It is probably just because ordinary soldiers cannot adapt to this environment well. After all, the temperature is now constant.
At more than 40 degrees, coupled with humidity and the evaporated rotten smell, it is indeed not something ordinary humans can endure for a long time.
Gently approaching the security personnel, Cassia paid attention to the observation range of other people nearby. When no one was paying attention, she walked around to him, waved her arm lightly, and then dragged an unconscious body to the ancient tree.
Behind the tangled tree roots.
In less than half a minute, Cassia walked out with a firecracker, stood at the alert position, and started to sort out the clothes that were not very suitable. A mechanical watch that was resistant to moisture, clothes that were flexible and stimulating to the body muscles, and a helmet with good material.
, and a breathing mask that is not boring at all. The equipment is very professional, and the fire gun in his hand is much lighter than the ordinary standard fire gun when it is equipped with blue and silver bullets.
Perhaps this is the complete version of the fire gun. Most of the standard fire guns used by the imperial army are made of copper and steel alloys in a certain proportion. Copper is not a scarce resource in the empire, but it is about to become depleted compared to
Steel, which has the same fate as coal, also has considerable value.
Turning his head to look at the group of people handling the Legon bomb behind him, Cassia focused his attention on the surrounding ancient trees. He remembered that when he was still here, Cassia not only learned basic swordsmanship, but in action, it seemed
I also learned my own caution.
After being vigilant in place for more than ten minutes, the team reorganized and moved forward slightly from the original direction at a smaller angle. No one seemed to be familiar with each other, and no one noticed Cassia under the mask. I wonder if it was because his performance ability had improved.
, Cassia thought, the teammates around him didn’t speak, and they didn’t even have any suspicion about him.
From time to time, his eyes wandered to the front of the team. Those were the main members of the team, the four captains, all carrying pneumatic weapons. They were much more cautious than the people around them. Perhaps they had more experience, so they knew how to hunt dragons in the southern forest.
The dangers of this second type of creature.
While observing, Cassia silently followed the team forward. The sound did not bring him a good detection effect at this time, and he had to rely on his eyes to search for everything.
The team suddenly stopped at this moment, and the four captains in front made warning gestures, and the team immediately dispersed. Cassia followed the people around her and hid behind the nearby ancient tree, sticking her head out to look ahead.
It is a sunken low-lying ground, with accumulated dead leaves almost replacing the soil, covering it with a thick layer. Many thick tree roots emerge from it, and the hanging plant aerial roots are more like a dark brown waterfall, blocking the
in front of everyone.
A huge ancient tree stands there. The ferocious bark is like the scars cut by time. There are a few scratches left on the huge tree trunk that looks like a wall. It is still very fresh. The exposed roots spreading around it are even worse.
The main steam red copper pipes in the factory were entangled. They tightly hugged the ancient tree in the middle, forming a layer of staggered steps. There were wet blood stains on the dead leaves beside the ancient tree, the shape of a huge python.
The corpse was mixed among the roots of the tree.
Everyone looked up at the ancient tree almost at the same time. The thick leaves were piled up layer by layer, blocking the searching sight.
At this time, the four captains took out their communicators and began to contact the surrounding teams through the strengthened signal established by the communication machine on the airship.
Just a minute or two later, the other three teams rushed over, and at this moment, the sound of the airship propeller was getting closer and closer.
Cassia also looked over. The huge ancient tree with a trunk diameter of more than ten meters could indeed bear the weight of Cassia.
"But,,," Cassia moved lightly to the ancient tree on one side, "Cassia Hei should know how to hide himself." His eyes glanced back and forth around the ancient tree, Cassia stared at the thick layer of...
Then he looked at the bottom of his feet. (To be continued)
