Returning from the abyss

Chapter 612
"So far, according to the statistics of the six camps, there have been at least eleven batches of super butchers in the wasteland. Due to the wandering of these butchers, nearly thirty campfires have been extinguished. This is a serious loss for Heike. The camp cannot take care of every corner, and the bonfire plays a very important role here. We will never deny the contribution of these black engravings. Now, some leaders have tried to contact and fight against the super butcher, but the situation is not Not optimistic - the super butcher already has the strength to compete with the leader in one-on-one."

Hengfeng's words sparked a murmur.

"Fortunately, these super butchers are just stronger individuals, and they haven't accumulated to the extent of qualitative change. At this time, we think it is necessary to conduct a thorough cleaning and gather the strongest strength from each camp. But you They must not be underestimated because of this, as a matter of fact, the porphyry camp was attacked by a super butcher before, which also caused them quite heavy losses." After Heng Feng finished speaking, he turned his eyes to the porphyry-clad people. A man in a rock camp cloak.

This was a tall, red-haired man, who couldn't tell his age. He stood up with a shameful expression on his face: "Although it's a bit embarrassing to say, the porphyry camp was indeed attacked by a super butcher a few days ago."

This time, the black engravers who didn't know the inside story were a little messed up. It's not surprising that the bonfire went out. It's acceptable for the leader to suffer a loss if he thinks about it carefully. However, a camp can be raided and suffered heavy losses. After all, the power usually left in the camp is not ordinary.

"Could you please elaborate?" someone shouted.

"The leader from the anvil has said this before, and I would add that one of the properties of the super-butchers is collective action, hence the 'batch' we mentioned earlier rather than individuals. The last time the super-butchers attacked our camp There are six in total, three of them have been killed, and three have fled, which is not a good sign."

Butchers are not like Hei Ke who weighs the outcome. Generally, the butchers Hei Ke encounters are the type who will fight to the death. Running away is simply unheard of. If it is a kid, there is still such a possibility.

"We can only think that the butchers also learned to judge the situation in the process of becoming stronger." A graceful female leader said, "If they start to learn tactics and start using their own characteristics to carry out sneak attacks and assassinations, then we have no doubts about the situation." Their advantage will be wiped out, and for a long time no camp will dare to let groups of less than five go out at will."

"Because of this." Another bald leader said loudly, "We want to kill those super butchers and reduce the deaths of our companions! This time it is a joint decision of the six camps. In this plan, we will Abandon the contradictions between some camps, reorganize the inspection, combat and auxiliary groups of each camp, form several, even dozens of crusade teams, and kill these super butchers before they become popular!"

His voice clearly contained some agitating power, and Lu Ning could vaguely feel that she wanted to have a surge of emotion, but it was a pity that she was completely suppressed.

Just when the Hei Kes were discussing this decision, the door suddenly opened, and the light from the outside shone into the castle, which looked pale but dazzling, and everyone turned their heads in an instant.

The leaders obviously didn't expect someone to interrupt the Heike meeting suddenly, and they all stood up and looked at the door.

There were three people there, all wearing luxurious white sacrificial robes, with the word Mist embroidered with gold thread on the windless automatic ribbon, and holding long staffs of different shapes in their hands.All three of them closed their eyes tightly, but there was no difficulty in walking. Seeing these three people, Hei Ke behind him almost unconsciously moved out of the way.

"Mist's...foreign officials, hello." Heng Feng's expression was a little bad, seeing these three people, he already had some bad premonitions.

"Leader Hengfeng, Leader Obsidian, Leader Zhining, Leader Qinglin, Leader Blazing, Leader Lead Pill." The foreign affairs officer in the middle nodded to the representative leaders of the six camps, and then took out a letter from his pocket. .

"Mist seldom gives direct orders to Heike." Yao Shi from the Porphyry camp said, "Why did you suddenly appear here today?"

"Of course it's because of this meeting." The foreign affairs officer said gently, "We really won't give you too much control over the actions of the Heikes, and we will also coordinate with you in various ways in terms of the supply of materials. There are always exceptions."

"The Hei Ke meeting has been held several times, and no nobles have ever intervened." Qing Lin, the gray-robed leader of the Dragon Bone Camp, said in a deep voice.

"If you are very dissatisfied, please allow us to express our apologies, but our foreign affairs officer just obeys orders..." The foreign affairs officer smiled bitterly, "And I haven't said anything yet."

"Think about it."

The one who spoke was the leader of the Breakpoint camp. He was the youngest of the six leaders, but his actual age could not be judged.He is more straightforward than others: "You want to dissolve this meeting and invalidate our decision, right? If it's not for this purpose, let us let it be, after all, the black engravings basically support this decision of."

This time the foreign affairs officer was silent for a second or two before speaking: "In general, this is the case."

The people in the hall immediately exploded, and some people even began to curse. Lu Ning suspected that if it wasn't for the strength of the foreign affairs officer, this group of black engravers would have killed three people on the spot.

"Everyone be quiet!" The bald head—that is, the blazing leader roared, suppressing everyone's voices, and then asked the foreign affairs officer with his very intimidating voice: "What's the reason? If the nobles don't give us any The explanation requires us to wait for death like this, then we will choose the easier one among deaths!"

The foreign affairs officer's expression was a little embarrassed, but Lu Ning couldn't see any panic in them, it was just that they really felt a little embarrassed.

"If you need a reason... nobles need super butchers."

"What kind of bullshit is that?"

"We don't know the reason why the Super Butcher must be kept. It's just that compared with other large-scale events, the bleak mist has a wide range of effects but less damage. If you can't fight it, I think you should avoid it." It should also meet the requirements of the nobility."

"Avoid? Until when? When they come out and kill us all?"

The foreign officer sighed.

"It won't be too long, I promise you, if you are still not satisfied, we can draw a range, only within this range you can't hunt those super butchers, and once they leave, we won't kill them." Intervene, how about this?"

Only then did Zhi Yan look a little better, and was about to speak when Zhi Ning interrupted: "Then, Your Excellency, Foreign Affairs Officer, how big will this area be? Are we going to evacuate all of our Hei Ke from this area? Will our evacuation be Make the butchers in this area return to the outer city?"

"...they can't go back to the outer city."

"The butcher will keep chasing us, won't he? If we all leave, then the butcher will definitely follow. This range is of little significance, and it will not achieve your goal of keeping the super butcher."

Zhi Ning tapped lightly on the table with his finger: "You hope that we will not notify any bonfires, but just evacuate the camp quietly, use those bonfires to feed super butchers, and finally achieve your goal-but why should we help you entrap your compatriots? Woolen cloth?"

"Sorry, that's the order." The foreign officer shook his head, "If you object, we also need to take some measures that are not good for us."

"No, we will do what the nobles want." Lead Wan sneered, "This is for survival, please don't worry about the foreign affairs officer. But since you have made such a request, you should also know what consequences it will lead to. This has nothing to do with Heike."

"Naturally." The foreign affairs officer nodded, "I'm sorry to make you feel uncomfortable."

"If you know you're sorry, you should have left. Give us the scope, and we won't wait too long. After all, there can't be so many super butchers in this wasteland."

"Please allow me to retire."

The three foreign officials bent slightly, then turned and walked out of the castle.

After they left, the place became chaotic again.

"Leader! Do we really want to obey such outrageous orders?"

"Send off Hei Ke to die? We may not have a good relationship, but we can't reach this point, right?"

"Bonfire is also indispensable in the wilderness!"

The six leaders let the crowd chatter away. They looked at each other, exchanged a few words in a low voice, and waited for the crowd to calm down.

"The premise of everything is that the black engraving is a tool to deal with the butchers born in the bleak smog. Compared with other large-scale events, the bleak smog has obvious periodicity and low threat, which makes us as regular guards. Exist." Lead Wan said, "But don't think that the nobles really have no means to deal with butchers, after all, we are just a regular force."

"Are you saying that because we can't fight back, we have to accept it?" someone asked.

"We must first consider our own camp." Lead Wan glanced at the crowd, "I think most of the people here are not as many as the Mist foreign affairs officers I have come into contact with. They are a group of people who are willing to equal positions no matter how weak you are. People who have discussed various solutions with you, but once they are forced to use force to solve the problem, there is absolutely no room for change. In view of the situation just now, I still think it is better to send them away first.”

A group of people who are courteous first and then soldiers?Lu Ning thought of the foreign officer of Sacrifice, the style of foreign affairs officers of different aristocrats is quite different.

"So what should we do now?" The question was posed this time by a captain on the stairs above.

"We've roughly got enough."

Following these words, a guard outside the door came in, holding a scroll in his hand and said, "Masters! This is what the foreign affairs officer said to be handed over to you."

With Qinglin's casual move, the scroll flew from the guard's hand to their desk and opened automatically.

"The next thing is to make overall arrangements. Thirty days is not a long time. Of course, we can't let our compatriots in the campfire become bait, so the solution is to guard here in shifts." Lead pill looked at the leaders, Heng Feng The others also nodded.

"The plan is revised. We can't take the initiative to attack the super butcher, but we can switch to a passive counterattack. The foreign affairs officer has already given a reminder. Since they will not notify the campfire, it means that the campfire does not need to follow this order. We will replace the campfire with an elite team. My compatriots, take shifts every once in a while, and once there are super butchers attacking, then counterattack and kill them."

"Good idea!" Chi Yan shouted, "Didn't Porphyry kill three before? They didn't say we couldn't fight back when we were attacked!"

"But you have to work hard for the person on duty. Passive counterattack is much more tiring than active attack, and the degree of danger is also higher. After a mission, we will arrange a longer rest for everyone. In an extraordinary period, nobles intervene again. This is just a helpless decision." Qinglin sighed.

"Another point is that you will lose the support of the leader." Lead Wan looked at the crowd below, "The foreign affairs officer did hint that such loopholes can be exploited, but the leader represents the camp, which is different from ordinary people. Although the camp says It doesn't have to be moved out, but there's no reason for a leader to go to the bonfire ... We've got to make it look reasonable."

"Next... the original team composition plan of the crusade team remains unchanged. We will still form teams for everyone. Considering the issue of coordination, familiar people will also be arranged together. Each team will have ten to twelve people." Hengfeng patted Clap your hands, "We will announce the preset list, and then you will have the opportunity to deploy at your own request, with combat power as the priority. No matter what personal grievances you have, you must let go now."

Lu Ning's group was easy to handle. After all, as a newcomer, her group didn't have the personal problems of the past. The six of them plus Alex quickly formed a group with the other four.Of course, it is also because the newcomers are easy to assign, it is impossible for these few people to be assigned to the group of tourists who lived in Hirao for a long time.

The remaining four are two from Breakpoint, one is from Yingcao, and the other is from Keel. They have no complaints about the huge "Anvil Force" in this team, and it is enough to introduce their names and specialties to each other.

The two breakpoints are brothers, Qiao Hang and Qiao An, who are very good at long-range firepower. Compared with auxiliary support gunmen like Alex, they are better at violent output and flexible.Gordon of Yingcao is a control mage, and he is also good at melee combat.Nancy of the keel is a balanced fighter in the middle and short range, with a lot of weapons on her body.

After a little discussion, the grouping over there was quickly finalized.The black engravers didn't hesitate too much about such a big event, and they quickly formed a team except for those who really didn't want to be in a group.

"Then... Next, we need to select about fifteen groups of people to spend the first eight days in the wilderness. Due to their inexperience, this group is also the most dangerous. We will give priority to the voluntary principle." Heng Feng once again Said.
