Zi Sang Liuying’s fearless voice seemed to ignite the students of Linglu Academy.
"Don't be afraid, we are not afraid!" Another team also shouted loudly.
The general raised his hand and the military tent became quiet again. He glanced at the roster in his hand and said calmly: "This time, there are a total of 184 students from the three grades of Linglu Academy who are here to carry out the mission.
During the mission, we were attacked by the undead army. Of the 143 returnees, 41 were missing. When facing the undead, missing means death."
Listening to his somewhat calm words, the originally depressing atmosphere seemed to explode at this moment.
The captain of one of the teams suddenly walked out and said indignantly: "The task we received was only to deal with the third-level undead. Why were we suddenly attacked by the undead army? Why did the military have no news to remind us?"
The general looked at him calmly, "Because these are the undead. No one knows where the undead creatures will gather their armies and appear. You don't know, and I don't know either. Among the undead creatures, there is a kind of crypt spider.
They can open caves hundreds of meters deep underground, carry undead creatures wherever they want, and make them appear anywhere. We have no news, how can we inform you? And our soldiers, in the past few decades, have
, this is how you face undead creatures. Ordinary soldiers are like this. As geniuses of the Spiritual Furnace Academy, is there anything special about you? Just because you are geniuses? Do I need to explain everything to you in detail?
Even sending a nanny to protect you? Who are you geniuses like that?"
By the end, his voice was full of coldness.
Everyone fell into silence again. As students of the Spiritual Furnace Academy, each of them has their own pride. However, when facing the thousands of undead army, no matter how talented they are, they will still feel powerless.
"Do you know why your teammates disappeared? I have a piece of data here to tell you. The undead army you are facing can also be called the undead cannon fodder army. Yes, it is the overall strength of the undead creatures.
The weakest cannon fodder army. Generally speaking, for every three thousand such low-level undead creatures, there will be a lich to lead and command them. Before they are formed, their own strength is not strong and their speed is not fast.
With your average level five strength, is it difficult to escape from the battlefield?"
"But how did you do it? All the data I have obtained so far shows that none of the teams chose to withdraw at the first time. Instead, they all stayed to face the undead army and tried to resist it. The better teams
, will send personnel back to report the situation to the military headquarters and request support, but most of them will stay on the battlefield and try to resist the undead army. Is this your confidence? "
"Of course, you will tell me that this is buying time for the military. But, did your teacher tell you before this assessment that the first thing you have to do is to protect yourself. Have you done it? All your mistakes
All losses are self-inflicted. If you had chosen to leave the battlefield and join up with friendly forces at the first time, then there would be no tragedy. Your individual strength is very strong, but you are also ignorant and fearless. Can you
Tell me why you do this? Let me answer it for you. The reason is very simple. You are greedy for merit and the merit brought by killing undead creatures. Am I right?"
After hearing what the general said, most of the students present lowered their heads subconsciously. Yes, this was the reason why most people stayed and chose to resist the undead creatures. Even Long Dangdang, Long Kongkong and Ling Menglu did not.
exception.
Because of this, they lost the best opportunity to escape from the battlefield. When shadows and resentful spirits appeared on the battlefield and entangled these teams, the teams that were absolutely not strong enough would naturally fall.
During the simulated assessment with the demons, they all knew that they would not die, so they fought bravely. However, when the real combat occurred, they lacked the awe of war in their hearts.
Most of the students lowered their heads, but only a few did not. For example, Zisang Liuying's team, and Ling Menglu's team.
"This time, five teams are specially commended. They relied on their strong enough strength to block the advance of the undead army and even annihilated the undead army. The total merits they obtained, from high to low, are: first
Name, Zisang Liuying team, second place, Ling Menglu team, third place..."
Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong were slightly startled. Second place? You know, they killed a seventh-level lich! And it was equivalent to defeating the undead army. Even under such circumstances, they actually
Is it just second place? What did San Liuying and the others do?
At this time, Zi Sang Liu Ying happened to look towards Ling Menglu. Their eyes met. Zi Sang Liu Ying's eyes were not only firm, but also had something else, and her eyes were burning.
Ling Menglu just looked at her and smiled slightly, but Long Dangdang, who was standing next to her, clearly felt pain in his arm, as if two slender fingers were twisting the skin of his arm and rotating it 180 degrees.
Long Dangdang's expression stiffened for a moment, but he endured it in the end. After all, my cousin couldn't lose face!
"Your assessment has not been completed because the mission is not over yet. Next, you will go to the northwest together. Yes, all one hundred and forty-three students will go together. As a squadron, you will protect Jingmen Village in the north.
. Thirty miles away from Jingmen Village, an army of the undead appears. Our main army needs to deal with the undead in the south. The terrain of Jingmen Village is difficult, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is the rear of the army. Your task is to defend five people there.
Hours. Do you understand?"
At this point, the general paused before continuing: "Now you are no longer geniuses in the ivory tower, but soldiers. Soldiers take obeying orders as their bounden duty and carry out the tasks I have assigned you. You are the real soldiers."
Soldiers. Otherwise, you are useless. You have no time to grieve now, nor do you have time to rest and lick your wounds. What you have to do now is to complete the last mission. Now, set off!"
After speaking, the general stood up, and a powerful momentum burst out from him.
"Zi Sang Liu Ying, Ling Meng Lu Ying."
Zisang Liuying and Ling Menglu took a step forward respectively.
"Your squadron is temporarily named Lingluo Squadron, with Zi Sang Liuying as the squadron leader and Ling Menglu as the deputy squadron leader. You have already understood the mission. Guard Jingmen Village for five hours. Are there any problems?"
Zi Sang Liuying's beautiful eyes became extraordinarily bright, she quickly stood at attention and gave a military salute, "Promise to complete the mission."
"Everyone, wait, this trip is under the command of the two captains. Set off immediately!"
Zisan Liuying and Ling Menglu walked out of the military tent side by side. The moment they walked out of the military tent, Zisan Liuying whispered to himself: "This time, it seems that I won."
Ling Menglu also didn't look at her, always with a faint smile on her face, "The assessment is not over yet."
Zisan Liuying said: "Actually, I am a little defeated this time. After all, you don't have magicians. On such a large-scale battlefield, the role of magicians is too important. Without magicians, you are really a little bit weak."
The one who suffers."
Ling Menglu glanced at her and said, "Captain, let us wait and see."
One hundred and forty-three junior students of Linglu Academy have walked out of the military tent at this time. Many of their faces look ugly even now.
This is especially true for some second- and third-year students.
Putting aside whether any of their comrades had died, the temporary squadron leader and deputy squadron leader were both from the first grade, which made them, senior students, somewhat embarrassed to see others.
We are all geniuses at Lingluo Academy. They have only studied for a year or two less, but they are already superior to them. How do they, who are also geniuses, accept this in their hearts?
Zisang Liuying stood at the front, her eyes swept over everyone, and her voice reached everyone's ears clearly, "I know that many seniors are not convinced that Monroe and I are standing here. But,
Now is not the time to be unconvinced. We have lost many classmates and partners. What we will face now is a more difficult task. I have been designated as the temporary squadron leader. This is an honor, but it is also a responsibility. We have already lost our lives before.
I have so many partners, so the next mission will probably be more difficult. The only thing I can promise you is that if the enemy is really too powerful to resist, I will be the last one to leave the battlefield."
Her words were sonorous and powerful, with strong confidence in her voice, but it also gave people a convincing feeling.
The expressions of dissatisfaction among the students have obviously decreased.
Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong didn't have much contact with Zi Sang Liuying. It can be said that the only time was when Long Dangdang rejected Zi Sang Liuying. But at this moment, listening to Zi Sang Liuying's words, the two brothers couldn't help but feel...
Some admiration.
Long Kongkong whispered in Long Dangdang's ear: "As expected of the Saint of Elements, she has something. My cousin has a rival."
Long Dang said: "To be called a genius in the Spirit Furnace Academy is definitely not an ordinary person. Their total achievements are still higher than ours, and the enemies they defeated before are definitely not weaker than us."
"From now on, I hope that we can become a whole, rather than the previous team as a unit. Each profession will be deployed uniformly. Only in this way can our combat effectiveness be maximized. Now, please separate
Regroup according to their respective professions. From left to right, they are knight, warrior, assassin, magician, summoner and priest. Regroup immediately."
There was a bit of coldness in Zisan Liuying's voice, but it also had an undeniable flavor. At this moment, she was like a female general commanding an army.
Ling Menglu stood beside her, never speaking, as if giving all the scenery to her.
Everyone also understood the seriousness of the situation. The large number of injuries suffered by the previous students made these geniuses of Spirit Furnace Academy feel less conceited. After hearing this, they did not hesitate and quickly rearranged their teams.
Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong naturally entered the knight's camp. The two brothers were next to each other. The seats in front were already occupied by senior students, so they could only stand relatively far back.
"Let's go!" Zisang Liuying hit the staff with a wave of his hand and took the lead.
Ling Menglu followed her. It was only at this moment that Zisang Liuying turned to look at her and said, "Do you have anything to add? Vice-captain."
Ling Menglu just smiled slightly and said: "No, you have done a good job."
"Well, you're right." Zisan Liuying responded coldly, stopped talking, and continued to stride forward. At the same time, she raised the staff in her hand, and she was not seen chanting a spell.
The light body technique and floating technique that had been performed fell on everyone respectively. Yes, all more than 140 students were covered.
"Good guy, is this almost the sixth level?" Long Kongkong said in wonder as he felt his body becoming lighter.
Long Dangdang nodded and said: "It should be alright. When she uses magic, she feels as if she has been integrated into the elements. This is one of the characteristics of the sixth level."
Long Kongkong said: "So strong!"
Long Dang said: "Please speak louder so that my cousin can hear it."
One hundred and forty-three members of the Spirit Furnace Squadron accelerated forward under the leadership of Zisang Liuying and Ling Menglu. With the blessing of wind magic, everyone was very fast.
The knights are at the front, the warriors are at the back, the assassins are divided into two groups, guarding on both sides, and the three major legal professions are in the center. The priest profession uses the eye of truth to guard against being approached by undead creatures with invisible characteristics at any time.
It has to be said that Linglu Academy is Linglu Academy. Although they have experienced previous blows, at this moment, no one is immersed in sadness and cannot extricate themselves. Instead, they grit their teeth and devote themselves to the next task.
In the process of moving forward, each of them can adjust their own state, not only the physical adjustment, but also the state of mind.
Going all the way north, when everyone saw Jingmen Village, they were surprised to find that it turned out to be a very lively village.
The size of the village is quite large. Judging from the number of houses in the village, there are about three hundred households.
There are also 300 soldiers guarding here at the same time, all warriors in full armor.
When he saw everyone from Linglu Academy arriving, a captain led by him came up with ten soldiers.
He gave a military salute to Zisan Liuying, "Hello, I am Tian Hao, the captain of the Jingmen Squadron who is responsible for guarding here. We have received the order from the military headquarters. From now on, our squadron will accept your dispatch. Please give instructions.
