When we returned to the junction of the buffer zone and the satellite city, there was still no one there.
But again, how can other teams have a captain-level strongman who can instantly kill high-level dark descendants like our own team.
Zhou glanced at Lin Ze secretly and couldn't help but think.
The group of people stayed at the junction in silence for more than half an hour before they gradually saw people from other teams returning.
Seeing that Zhou, Lin Ze and others were completely unscathed, and even their uniforms were clean and only stained with some dust, the returning guardians couldn't help but be stunned.
The man who looked like the temporary leader looked at Zhou in astonishment and asked, "You didn't go on the mission?"
Zhou Wenyan quickly shouted: "Hey, Jin Zhen, don't talk nonsense. How can we violate the team order? The dark descendants in Area 3 have been cleaned up. We also killed a high-level dark descendant."
"High-level dark descendants?" Jin Zhen couldn't help but laugh out loud, "Old Zhou, you have to make a draft even if you are bragging. If you don't say whether you can kill high-level dark descendants, let's see.
Do you look like you just finished fighting? You are still traveling."
Zhou was speechless for a while, and the other guardians behind him also looked at each other speechless.
Seeing this, suspicion suddenly appeared on Jin Zhen's face, and he quickly asked: "What's going on? Is it possible that you really encountered an emergency?"
"That's not true." Zhou glanced at Lin Ze and saw that he was just looking at the satellite city motionlessly and not paying attention to the situation here, so he leaned his head close and explained to Jin Zhen in a low voice.
After hearing this, Jin Zhen's eyes widened in shock. He looked at Lin Ze who was not far away in disbelief. Then he turned to Zhou and lowered his voice as if he were a thief: "You read that right, a guy just now...
A newcomer who was born less than two days ago has captain-level strength? You must know that when Captain Luo first came out of Aries Palace, he only had deputy-level strength."
"So many pairs of eyes have seen it, how can it be false? You don't know that only the captain can kill high-level dark descendants with one blow." Zhou sighed. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he wouldn't have believed it.
Such a scary newcomer.
Those guys in Aries finally did something practical.
But speaking of it, the people in the Aries Palace are only responsible for assisting. It is the king who actually created the guardian. It is said that in order to resist the continuous erosion of darkness, the king suffered an incurable serious injury. Now he can only stay deep in the palace, and even created the guardian.
It also seems to be insufficient, and the number of new guardians has dropped significantly in recent years.
Originally, Zhou Zhou was still a little worried, but now it seems that the rumors are not true. Lin Ze's existence shows everything, the king's power is still there!
Thinking of this, Zhou Dunjue felt a surge of strength deep in his heart, and his whole body became excited.
Looking at Jin Zhen again, he seemed to have thought of the same thing as him, with a look of joy on his face.
Although he was very curious about Lin Ze, Jin Zhen did not rush forward to get close to him. Instead, he turned around and restrained the team members who had gradually become commotion due to Zhou and others' strange appearance, and shouted at them to line up and stand by.
While waiting, other teams that completed the cleanup mission returned one after another.
More than ten minutes later, all the ten hundred-man teams that had left had returned. Except for Lin Ze's team, they were all covered in blood and looked exhausted.
Lin Ze made a rough visual inspection and found that there were as few as ten people and as many as nearly thirty people. Each team suffered varying degrees of losses, and the death rate exceeded 20%. This was the premise that no one in his team died.
, one can imagine how heavy the casualties are in normal times.
"Such a high battle loss rate is due to the fact that the guardian was created by that king. Otherwise, if it had been born and grown in the same way as humans, the White Palace would have been destroyed long ago." Lin Ze secretly marveled.
At this time, there was a commotion in the crowd, but it was Luo and the more than ten deputy teams and deputy team assistants who came back.
Scanning the crowd, Luo action couldn't help but pause, obviously surprised by the clean appearance of Zhou, Lin Ze and others.
The expressions of several deputy team members who were relatively hot-tempered and impatient immediately darkened. They thought the team had retreated and escaped without completing the cleanup task, so they immediately summoned Zhou for questioning.
However, after Zhou finished telling the whole story, everyone froze on the spot, and then looked at Lin Ze in unison, with expressions of astonishment, shock, and disbelief on their faces.
Although Luo was wearing a mask and couldn't see her face, Lin Ze could clearly feel her eyes resting on him.
After a moment, she looked away and turned to say a few words to the people around her. Soon everyone regained their composure, and then a tall man who seemed to be second only to Luo in status shouted loudly:
"The mission has been completed, line up, let's get out of here!"
Under his order, the crowd completed the formation in a short time, left the junction in a mighty manner, and returned to the White Palace.
Compared to when they arrived, the team was significantly smaller. There was an inexplicable and desolate atmosphere as they marched on the empty and desolate gray sand.
On the way back, Lin Ze lowered his head and thought for a while, then asked Zhou beside him: "How can ordinary team members go to the inner ring to hunt dark descendants."
Zhou Wei was startled and said hesitantly: "Generally speaking, ordinary team members must obtain merits step by step and advance in rank until they are promoted to core players before they can join an inner-ring team under the arrangement of the captain. From now on, they will exclusively perform tasks in the inner-ring area.
Task."
"What about the special situation?" Lin Ze asked.
Zhou shrugged: "After receiving the captain's order, she will personally transfer you to the inner ring team."
After a pause, he added, "Actually, similar situations have never happened before. A very small number of newly born guardians will be called into the inner circle by the captain soon after they show strength far beyond ordinary team members in battle.
The team is still a trainee or ordinary team member in name, but in fact it is almost the same as the core team members. Of course, with the strength of those people, it will not take long to get enough meritorious service to upgrade the sequence to the core team member level."
Lin Ze nodded slightly, and what Zhou said was almost as he guessed.
In the context of a race war, efficiency must be the first priority. People who show strong strength will inevitably be transferred to positions corresponding to their strength. They will never be dismissed for the ridiculous reason of being too low in rank.
Leaving it wastefully on the lower ranks.
The existence of the sequence system is to better discover capable people, not to suppress the strong.
"I think Captain Luo will summon you when we return to White Palace." Zhou continued.
"That's good." Lin Ze murmured in a low voice and stopped talking.
In the silent rush, the team returned to the White Palace not long after, and there were already a large number of medical and logistical personnel waiting at the north gate. When they saw the team returning, they immediately stepped forward to separate the wounded and began to treat their injuries.
The uninjured people returned to their residences with tired looks, trying to get some time to rest.
There is no fixed rest time in the White Palace, and missions may occur at any time.
And just as Zhou said, not long after returning to the north gate, Lin Ze caught a glimpse of a figure walking towards him from the corner of his eye. When he looked sideways, he saw that it was the tall man who was staying next to Luo and who had given orders to everyone to return not long ago.
"This is the first time we meet. My name is Yaoguang."
The tall man walked up to Lin Ze and looked him up and down with a scrutinizing gaze. Surprise gradually appeared in his eyes.
He found that he couldn't see through the depth of the other party, but the only thing he could be sure of was that Zhou was not lying. The new guardian named Lin Ze in front of him was very powerful, because just standing in front of Lin Ze, he felt deep in his heart.
Uncontrollable panic and fear arose everywhere.
You must know that even if he faces high-level dark descendants, he will not feel this way.
Thinking of this, Yao Guang's eyes when looking at Lin Ze involuntarily became less casual and more solemn.
"The captain wants to see you."
Lin Ze was not surprised, nodded and said: "Where?"
"Come with me."
Yaoguang turned around and led the way, while Lin Ze said hello to Zhou and followed Yaoguang away.
Not long after the two left, an uproar suddenly broke out in the north gate, but word spread that Lin Ze slaughtered hundreds of dark descendants by himself and killed a high-level dark descendant in an instant.
The appearance of a newcomer with captain-level strength is destined to cause an uproar in the White Palace today.
Under Yaoguang's leadership, Lin Ze soon arrived in front of a white house.
"The captain is inside, just go in." Yaoguang stopped and pointed at the door.
"Thanks."
After saying thank you, Lin Ze knocked on the door first. After waiting for a "please come in" from inside, he opened the door and walked in.
The layout of the room was very simple, with nothing else except a set of sofas and a coffee table. It was completely empty, and with pure white floors, walls and ceilings, Lin Ze suddenly had the illusion that he was in a science fiction scene.
Luo Zhengduan was sitting on the sofa. When he saw Lin Ze coming in, he pointed to the sofa opposite and said lightly: "Please sit down."
Lin Ze sat down as he was told and looked at Luo intently.
This was the first time since he entered the dungeon that he had observed a captain-level figure so closely.
Luo's face was obscured by a white mask, but he had long hair shawl and a petite figure. He had a cold temperament all over his body, which made people look at him, and the whole person could not help but calm down.
Lin Ze had seen similar temperament in another person, and that was Luo Luo.
"What's wrong?"
Seemingly noticing Lin Ze's scrutinizing gaze, Luo suddenly asked. His voice was surprisingly similar to Luo Luo's. I wonder if it was because of the mask.
"Nothing." Lin Ze came back to his senses and quickly shook his head.
Luo didn't ask any more questions, but went straight to the point: "I have heard from other people about your situation. You can kill high-level dark descendants in an instant, and your strength is undoubtedly above the deputy team level. However, White Palace has strict regulations.
In the sequence system, I cannot directly improve your sequence level. I can only provide you with other help within the regulations. Before that, I need to ask you about your wishes. Are you willing to join the inner ring team and perform more dangerous cleanup tasks in the future?
?”
"Of course." Lin Ze nodded without hesitation.
Luo seemed to have guessed this answer a long time ago. He was not surprised at all when he heard this, and said calmly: "Okay, from now on, you will be transferred to my direct team, and from now on you will act with me, other deputy teams, and deputy team assistants."
Lin Ze was slightly startled when he heard this. He didn't expect Luo to actually transfer him directly to his staff. He thought it would be another ordinary inner ring team.
"Why, don't you want to?"
"No, I will obey the arrangement." Lin Ze shrugged, indicating that he had no objection.
It would also be good to work with the top leaders of the Guardian team. You might be able to come into contact with more powerful monsters and gain more merits faster.
"You are the only guardian in the past twenty years who has been able to use the strength above the deputy team level since birth. I hope you can grow up quickly and add more strength to the guardian team." Luo Yi said pointedly.
Lin Ze nodded slightly, a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
There was a moment of silence.
Lin Ze reacted and asked, "Can I leave?"
"Of course, there is nothing else." Luo nodded.
A strange look flashed across Lin Ze's face. Luo and Luo Luo were also very similar in this regard. In Liu Jinghe's words, they were cute.
Originally, he thought that as the leader of the team, Luo should be quite dignified, but he turned out to be unexpectedly very gentle. His speech was calm and kind, unhurried and unhurried, not harsh or solemn at all, but yet convincing.
Don't have a special personality charm.
Coming out of the white room, Lin Ze found that the light was still outside.
"Welcome to the team."
Seeing Lin Ze coming out, Yao Guang smiled on his face and stretched out his hand towards him.
Lin Ze held his hand and said with a smile: "Aren't we all members of the Guardian Team before?"
"That's right, but the team directly under the captain is always different. There are countless people in the team who want to be a member of the team." Yaoguang smiled, his tone full of respect and admiration for Luo.
Lin Ze saw this and smiled slightly.
Thanks to Yaoguang's deliberate friendship, the two chatted very harmoniously, and from Yaoguang, Lin Ze also got a lot of information about the team directly under him.
There are a total of twelve people in the direct team. In addition to Luo, who is the captain, there are also three Sequence 3 deputy captains and eight Sequence 4 deputy team assistants. Now we have to add Lin Ze, making it thirteen
people.
Most of the time, the direct team has to go deep into the inner ring area to perform cleanup tasks. Dealing with high-level dark descendants is commonplace, and everyone in the team also has the ability to kill high-level dark descendants independently.
It is worth mentioning that in addition to hunting high-level dark descendants deep in the inner ring area, sometimes the direct team must also go deep into the core area to investigate the situation of disaster beasts.
This is the truly dangerous mission.
Even for a direct team with many strong men, the slightest carelessness will result in the entire army being annihilated.
In the past, there have been situations where the direct team was discovered by the disaster beast while investigating, and several deputy teams and assistant team members died before escaping.
