Chapter 752: Encirclement
Teacher Xue looked at Chen Chuan and said, "Although Principal Yao and that colleague should have already made preparations outside, many things in the world are often full of variables and uncertainties. We can't calculate everything accurately. We can only be sure that our chances of winning are relatively high at the moment.
So my spirit will stay by your side, guiding you to avoid certain situations and helping you resist some external attacks."
Chen Chuan nodded. He thought for a moment and then asked Professor Xue, "Teacher Xue, didn't the people from the Union and the Linax Federation consider the possibility of fighters coming forward to snatch it?"
Xue Shou said, "Of course they've considered this. At the company's headquarters at the intersection of Jibei Road, there's an active consciousness capable of briefly confronting fighters. Once they're sure their subordinates or partners have gotten something, and a fighter comes forward to snatch it, they can activate the emergency regulations and move out.
It is unlikely to defeat Wei Guochan, but it is not difficult to delay him so that they can take the things back.
But even in this situation, it won't hinder our actions, and that active consciousness may not be able to bring back the lost item."
He smiled and said, "After all, all kinds of things can happen in the fusion land. Facing a fighter from the old imperial family, it's normal to fail, isn't it?"
Chen Chuan understood. It seemed that the original plan also included the intention to trap the active consciousness. If this plan succeeded, the Dashun side in this area of the fusion land would have absolute control of the upper power.
You must know that many forces of Dashun are entangled by the old imperial family. If the situation can be opened up on the land of integration, the benefits can be fed back to the central city, and many difficult things in the past may be able to move forward.
He said, "Teacher Xue, in this case, after the worm quicksand passes, I will try to break out."
Teacher Xue said, "The specific steps are up to you. From this moment on, I need to maintain the concentration of this spirit to prevent it from being lost too early. If you encounter any problems, you can try to communicate with my spirit through the imprint."
Chen Chuan raised his hand and looked, and saw a faint blue light in the palm of his hand that had just touched Qingju. This should be where Teacher Xue's spirit remained.
When he looked up again, he found that Xue Shou had disappeared.
He stood there and thought for a moment. Although Teacher Xue explained everything very clearly, he remembered that Teacher Xue had a habit of being late. So would he be late in this matter?
It's hard to say.
And as this person said, the world is full of variables. Even if you are not late, it cannot be said that this matter is really foolproof.
After thinking about it this way, he felt that if he really wanted to do something, it would be okay, but he still had to rely on himself.
His spiritual distance to perfection is now just a step away. Once he succeeds, and then reunites with his second self, he will be able to try to reach a higher level.
In fact, this was part of his plan.
Because the World Ring is about to close, the environment for cultivation will be a level lower than before. He must get ahead of it, and the cultivation environment in the fusion land is greatly advantageous.
Not to mention that there is this relic here.
He glanced outside, pulled up the tent, then drew out the Xuejun Sword and cut a crack with one stroke. As the light from inside overflowed, he sat down in front.
At this moment, somewhere in the fusion area, on the high slope of the sparse woodland, a knight was holding a fluttering flag. Under the flag was a young auxiliary general. He sat upright on a strong dragon-nosed horse, guarded by hundreds of elite cavalrymen.
His sharp eyes shone through the gaps in his armor, watching the swarm of insects surging in the distance.
At this time, the sound of hooves was heard in front, and several horses were seen galloping from outside. These were the scouts they had sent out before to investigate the situation, but this time, a person was being dragged behind one of the horses.
Major General Serbil was in a daze at the moment. He felt that he was being dragged forward and constantly rubbing against the uneven ground and the gravel on it. This rough action was undoubtedly a torture, but he was very glad in his heart because it was better than being eaten alive by those insects.
On that day, he relied on the protective gear on his body and some special drugs that stimulated his potential to rush out of the range of the raccoon cat ghost story. Later, he persisted in the ant colony for four days and once rushed to the edge of the insect tide. However, after arriving here, he finally collapsed due to exhaustion.
If these scouts of the old imperial family had not discovered his situation and managed to drag him out of the swarm, all his previous efforts would have been in vain.
Even so, only half of his head is still intact. The flesh and blood on his limbs and torso have almost been eaten away, and his whole body has become a skeleton with scattered flesh and blood attached. Fortunately, his will to survive was strong, and he managed to protect his important internal organs until the end.
Therefore, as long as he can eat high-energy nutrition and recuperate in the nutrient solution, he will be able to fully recover again after a period of time.
At this moment, he felt his body suddenly stop, and all the sounds of horse hooves also stopped. Then he heard some strange and scattered words. After a moment, it seemed that someone gave an order, and then someone rudely grabbed him up, tied him to a tree, and force-fed him a bottle of potion.
This stimulated his remaining vitality, and he regained his spirits. At this moment, the slow sound of horse hooves came towards him. He opened his eyes and saw a general from the old imperial family sitting high on his horse, wearing a helmet and armor, holding a long spear. The general looked at him and asked, "You foreigner? What are your origins?"
The general was accompanied by an interpreter who repeated the question to him in the common language of the Linax Federation and the corporate union.
Major General Serbil looked at him and answered directly in Dashun dialect: "I am General Ingram Serbil of the Linax Federation. According to the regulations of the Grand Alliance, I request to be treated and respected in the same manner as my position."
"Someone from the Linax Federation?"
There was a hint of contempt and a bit of disgust in the young general's eyes.
"Why, you're here for the lost items too? That's probably the case. From the look of you, I think you lost."
When he said this, although he looked like he was asking, there was a sense of certainty in his tone.
Major General Serbir said, "But it's not our fault. This isn't our home turf, and we don't fully understand the situation. Many unexpected events have caught me and my troops off guard, like this insect swarm."
The young general remained silent and asked, "Where is the remains now? In the hands of the Union? Or in the hands of those traitors?"
"It is now very likely to fall into the hands of a Dashun officer," said Major General Serbir.
"What's that person's rank? How strong is he?"
Major General Serbir did not answer directly. Instead, he said, "I know a lot about this person. I can tell you the details, but I want a guarantee."
The young general seemed extremely disdainful. "Look at you, you'd rather face the insect swarm than turn around and fight the enemy." He pointed his spear at him. "How dare a rat like you negotiate terms with this general?"
Major General Serbil was very angry, but he was always flexible and flexible, and now he was in someone else's hands, so he said calmly:
"We, the Linax Federation, and the Dashun Federation have always been enemies. I know your situation. You were forced to retreat to the Interchange Area by the Dashun government. There is a natural basis for cooperation between our two families.
I am a major general. I have a camp and a powerful army behind me. If you are willing to treat me, I can provide manpower and intelligence, and we can go together to seize that lost item..."
Before he could finish his words, a spear suddenly pierced his head with a "swish" sound, nailing him to the tree behind him.
The young general said slowly, "Even if I don't cooperate with you, the things are still mine." He pulled out his spear and said, "Get rid of him, clean up the mess."
"Yes, sir!"
Immediately, a soldier came up, poured some oil on Serbil's body, and then set it on fire.
The young general looked up at the rosy glow that dyed the sky above. They were just the vanguard. In the distance, the army belonging to the old imperial family was surrounding them from three directions. The only gap was in the direction of the Dashun camp that had not been breached.
They left this gap on purpose, neither attacking the camp nor giving the camp a chance to reorganize itself completely. Instead, they kept it there to attack and block any possible reinforcements. Once the insect quicksand was lifted, they would move their troops there and try to snatch the remaining items.
Another day passed, and Chen Chuan finished his night of practice. He ate some nutritional paste and fed Chao Ming something. Then he came out of the tent and looked around.
Although the insect swarm is still there, it is obviously much sparser than the previous two days. It seems that it will completely dissipate in the next day or two, and then he should prepare to take action.
At this time, he looked in a certain direction. It was a bare rocky mountain. If he remembered correctly, the camp of the Linax Federation was near this mountain.
Unexpectedly, the earthworms moved here unknowingly.
He thought about it, then walked out, found Xu Chan, and pointed him in that direction.
"Old Xu, do you see that mountain? There's probably a former Linax Federation camp there. According to the Skinner, Director Wen's remains were placed there. Now that I'm here, I plan to go take a look."
Xu Chan glanced over there and said, "Manager Chen, are you sure?"
Chen Chuanshuo said, "I calculated that if I speed up a bit, it will only take a few minutes at most. I'll go there and take a look. If I really can't find it, I'll come back immediately."
